Good News!

I have stated in my previous blog post that this year, I will not just talk about beauty or makeup - I will also now focus on Fashion, Crafting and (ahem!) my wedding plans! Hehe! You've heard it right! I'm getting married! Expect topics about my wedding, my wedding plans and probably I'm gonna blog about me and Rolly's adventures as we enter another chapter of our lives.

Stay tuned!

Quick Review: Cosmetic Love Online Shop

Hello everyone! I was actually waiting for FHM's 2013 100 Sexiest Women LIVE Streaming but unfortunately their Live Stream sucks. So here I am, doing a little quick post about this Online Shop that I would definitely recommend to you guys!

First of all, I was on a hunt for a perfect BB cream  - Korean BB creams to be exact. There are brands like Missha, Liole, Nature Republic, Skin Food, Etude House, Dr. Jart+, Holika Holika, Laneige, Skin79 and many more. After doing a little research, I've decided to get Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream in #23.

The difficult part now is where to purchase Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream! I did a lot of research again. Through Multiply and FB, looking for a legit online shop. Yes, there are a lot of Online shops offering Authentic Missha BB Cream but what took me aback was the price. Yes, the Price. Some shop sells it for a whooping 1600+. I actually found a shop offering a cheaper price but then it is on Pre-order basis. Fine. It took me a week to finally found the perfect online shop. Then I found this:

Cosmetic-Love.com

Heaven Sent! Indeed!

Okay Okay. What I love about this Online Shop are:

• Wide range of products to choose from
• The price offer, unbelievably Affordable!
• Free Shipping Worldwide - cool right?
• Along with the package, they will be giving you free samples.
• Customer Service.  I once emailed them about my package and they accurately responded.
• They accept Paypal/Visa/Mastercard
• Online Shop is secured and safe.
• They also sell sample sizes. It would be best to try out samples before buying the full sizes.
• Though package would take you a month to receive it - its worth the wait anyway!
• Legit Online shop from S. Korea. I also did a research on this online shop and so far, customers are very satisfied. 
• Bought the BB cream for only $14.87 (phil peso 650+)

Here's my small haul

I will post the review [Missha BB cream] soon!

Quick Review: Fanny Serrano Two Way Cake in Organza

Ola everyone! Im baaaaaaaaaaack!!! I'm back for another quick review! I know I've been so busy lately that it took me forever to update my blog. But anyway, it's already 10 p.m. and my brains wouldn't want to sleep at all. Haha! That is why I am spending this little energy left just for blogging.  Really, I have tons of things to share to you guyz but i just don't have much time to blog about it.

FS Two Way Cake

I know you are familiar with this item. A lot of makeup bloggers/gurus were raving about this Foundation! And now I am definitely one of them! I am giving my two thumbs up for this foundation. Why?

1. Coverage

* Awesomeness! - Medium to High Coverage. Has a smooth and matte finish. It could cover skin imperfections. Staying power is very very good! And I just love the smell!. I am just sooooo glad I purchased this foundation. This is actually the 2nd time I purchased this (yeah kazie hits the pan!). It's available in 7 shades. Mine is Organza! And Good Oil Control.  

2. Packaging
The new packaging is another plus! I just love it! Very decent packaging. Sleek and looks classy. Yay! =) I admit that the previous packaging wasn't that good - the mirror was a little bit hassle to check as it is placed under the foundation. So just imagine flipping the foundation from time to time just to check yourself in the mirror. But that was before, they actually improved the packaging now. I just sooooo love it!

3. Price
Yes, for 399 pesos only. Amazing right?

I also love their SA's, very accomodating and friendly! I am just happy they gave me the exact foundation shade for me.

Day1 - When did you start putting on makeup?

Scanning through my memory lane, hmmm... In my post Like Mother like Daughter, I did mention that I started wearing makeup (of course on special occasions & performances!) since Grade 1. Everytime I had a dance presentation or whatever we call it (gosh! haha!) , my mom would always love to prettify her cute daughter (ooops! ahaha joke!) . I have the most supportive Mom ever! I could never ever forget her signature lipstick - RED LIPSTICK!

But of course, I started putting makeup (on my own) when I was in college. It was just a simple foundation-eye liner-lip gloss combination. I started to learn how to put blushes and tossing all my lip glosses (and fell in love with lipsticks) and fixing my brows when I started working in a contact center then afterwards as Costumer Service Rep (we were required to be physically presentable as we face hundreds of customers per day - a telco company). One of my makeup mentors was my Business Officer who loves makeup too! And also, a colleague of mine introduced me to this awesome Youtube Makeup Guru, Michelle Phan. And then I started reading beauty blogs and stuff.. So there! I practiced and practiced and practiced and got inspired.. 

 How about you ladies, When did you start putting on makeup?

Quick Review: In2it Waterproof Eye Colour Set in Suedes

 

Product info from their website (http://www.in2itcosmetics.com)

and 11 sets for you to choose from..

 (photo taken from their website)

 

In my HAUL post, I did mention that I was asking for an EYEBROW POWDER and then the sales lady gave me this. I was in a hurry. I did check the colors but didn't bother checking the label. When I arrived home, I was shocked to see that she gave me an EYESHADOW SET!!! Hey hey hey! I want to get mad, but after testing it. One thing is true, i LOVE IT!

Well, we all know we can use an eyeshadow as brow powder as long as it matches our brow color. Maybe the Eyebrow set was out of stock.

This set is very handy. I always take this with me anywhere I go. The shades are perfect for natural/everyday makeup. It is very pigmented even without an eye primer. I am deeply inlove with this set that I just can't leave the house without this in my bag. Hihi! The staying power is just amazing! It lasts for 8-12 hours, no creasing! Cool right? Haha.
