Chanel Teint Innocence Compact Review
This review is long overdue, I don’t even own this now (sold it off hehe) It’s a nice foundation, but not for me, still on the search for my holy grail..According to Chanel’s description: Innovative oil-free compact foundation offers luxurious glide-on application. Provides ideal medium coverage, while still revealing skin’s natural beauty. Delivers greater colour purity for an even, luminous complexion. I got this when I was on a roll with Chanel Cosmetics since their Rouge Allures and Joues Contraste amazed the heck out of me. I was also looking for a decent foundation that I can bring with me whenever and easy to apply. The foundation is packaged nicely in its…

Review: Maybelline Dream Matte Powder
Maybelline Dream Matte Powder in Cream I have been using this powder for a couple of months now and neglected to review because of the following reasons: 1. It isnt such a bad product that would enrage me to post a rant review 2. It isnt such a great product that would encourage me to post a rave review In short. So-so. But the effect of this powder to me this morning made me want to post that in reality, I am not so happy with this product after all. Since I have combination skin, this made the sides of my nose flake, and after a few hours, my skin turns dull and…

How BB Cream Cured My Sister’s Millia
OLD POST – PHOTOS NO LONGER AVAILABLE Millia – A hard closed comedo with a very obvious white head. Not to be confused with a pustule, milia are not red or inflamed. In other words, icky, protruding whiteheads. My sister is currently 12 years old and she had this for almost 4 years already and it has been bothering us ever since. She’s not the kikay type of girl and when I gave the Purederm BB Cream to her, it was her only moisturizer/makeup. She loved it so much the first time we tried it on SM that IM SO GRATEFUL that Purederm sent us a tube for free. She has been religiously using this bb…

[REVIEW] PureDerm 3in1 Magic BB Cream
I promised my little sister that I would buy her a Purederm 3in1 Magic BB Cream (699.75) when we returned to Watson’s since we had no more cash when we were there haha, thanks to Purederm who sent me a gift pack!.

Perfect for giving an even, flawless look to your skin; these little beauties will cover up the odd blemish and tone down any redness.

Most foundations and cover-ups contain mineral oil, whereas LUSH Colour Supplements are…

Review: Kevin Beautymaker Aqua Light Foundation
Hey folks *wink*, it’s been a while since I did a cosmetics review, actually it would really take a bit more time for reviews since Im beginning to get that lazyyy feeling, like I don’t feel like wearing any makeup, or trying makeup. This review was really due a month ago, but yeah, a good product, but I finally found products that can be called HG (holy grail) for me and thus stopped my “search”. Well, onto the review shall we? I got this foundation because a lot of bloggers said this is a great dupe for the Lunasol Aqua Foundation which costs an arm and a leg. I got this for less…

Review: Kryolan TV Paintstick
I had high expectations to this product due to rave reviews on different forums and blog, but alas I was disappointed, and had better results from low-end makeup brands like Fashion21 (their foundation sticks are HG material, in my opinion of course.) I got the shade in FS45 which was recommended for those who have NC30 skintones, It was too yellow and a bit too dark for me. (K!!! You’re not yellow!!! Hahaha). It had a nice texture, easy to blend, scent is tolerable and there’s a lot of product in the tube, but that’s where all the nice things end. It does not have the staying power that most people raved about,…

Review + Swatch: Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer Tinted Moisturizer
*Whew* Another looooooooong product name, why cant they just call it, Neutrogena Tinted Moisturizer? :p This is a product almost loved. Well, almost. My shade is light-neutral. What I Like SPF 20 Retinol Oil Free (well everything that the container says) It comes in a very hygienic pump. Oh how I wish all bb creams come in pump like these. What I don’t Like It’s very difficult to blend considering its a moisturizer, or maybe I was just used to BB creams? But nah.. other tinted moisturizers arent this hard to blend You have to remove the solid part after a pump No coverage at all. Who will I recommend this to? It’s…

Revisit: Revlon Colorstay with SoftFlex
这是我的基金会的圣杯is it hasnt broken me out and it took months before the breakouts healed completely. It’s quite traumatizing actually. I know it’s not because of not properly cleansing because when I used this product, I made sure everything is completely gone, with steps from cleansing oils, microfiber towels, and then another wash, and then check for residue using toners. I’m tempted to try another foundation by Revlon, but I’m hesitating, since Im scared of having acne again. Thank God that I didnt get nasty scars from the breakout, but the red pigmentation is still there, though flat. Have you tried Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation? How…
