ELF

Just a random post. I found out about E.L.F. $1 lipstick line. Well a dollar exchange is around 50php, but that's not going to happen. I bet they sell these at 129php like they usually do. Lol. 

I want to check these colors out.
Captivating - Charming - Nostalgic

I came to realize that I like nude colors -- nude to pinkish colors. Just red and pink alone does not suit me :| I have a handful of lipsticks here at home (all given as a present, and they're all from Avon), but I never really use them because I'm not comfortable with them :)) But I don't know why these interests me :)) Probably it's the 'girl blood' that runs in my veins.

Well, keeping it won't be too much right? And sooner I'll be off my bum life and I'll be working. Probably to look 'professional' or 'presentable' I must have some of these :> LMAO. I keep watching on YT their reviews regarding this one and so far so good. I just don't know if it will be good on me. Ha!

Well I'm also interested with the colors of Nyx lipsticks but -- there are only resellers and, I'm not sure if those are genuine or fake :\ Nyx are cheap, around 110php. Oh I don't know if genuine though.

So yea, so much about that. Hehe.
Byeeeeeeee.

DIY: Make your cracked blush to cream blush

Heya! Today, as usual, I browsed the internet for almost every random thing. I was browsing on make-ups and then later on tutorials and then I stumble upon a Do It Yourself: Cream Blush. I was amazed I realized I have a broken blush-on and I have a petroleum jelly. Need I say more? I'm going to do it!


I was looking for a similar container as the one she used in her video but instead I found this cute Minnie Mouse key chain thing doing nothing just rotting in the corner, so it shall thank me, I'm going to make it useful! Let's get started!

Skin Products

So I've been blog hopping the whole week. I realized there were a lot of bloggers who review skin products and make-ups. Words commonly used would really entice you to buy what they bought. Either that or I'm just really convinced easily. So the surest way is to get in the mall and poke my fingers on those 'Try Me!" products.

However, most products usually reviewed are pricey since they are U.S. brands, that's why most of the time I'm left just wondering. So not to kill all my hopes I started searching locally. Fortunately I did find some things. 

There are local brands that seems to be trust worthy.
Products made from natural ingredients are also probably becoming more popular here in the Philippines. I've heard only two brands so far, Human Nature and Giga. I'd like to try Human Nature's Tinted Lip Balm. (about P79) What's good about Human Nature is that they offer a wide variety of products for a friendly price -- plus, no harmful chemicals! And made in the Philippines :D I want to visit their branch in Commonwealth. As for Giga, I'd probably try their Shampoo soap. I've read good reviews about it!

Next in line are the Korean brands that are becoming within reach.
Their skin care products are starting to become a craze. Not to mention, Korean BB Creams. It acts as a foundation, as far as I know. Since it is in a cream form, just like lotions, you'll just apply it on your face as is. No more base make-up, foundation, loose powder/powder kind of  things.

Some Korean make-up lines have branches here in the Philippines already. BB Creams prices are not less than P500 or something but I found one, that's worth P328. It's Tony Moly's. It only has 1 shade though, I don't know if it suits me. I've read a pointer when buying a BB Cream that you should buy something that's a shade darker than your skin tone.

At the moment, I'm just interested in BB Creams and probably their Concealers.

Right now those are the things that I want. Lol. 
After loads of things that I've read I'd go for these 3 first. 

'Till my next wish list musing!

Concealer

CONGRATULATE ME!
 I just learned how to properly use a concealer. I've been doing it wrong all this time, so no wonder my eyebags still bulges even though I've put it on. Well, it's much better looking now. I really don't like my eyebags because it creates a 'tired' appearance. 

This make-up thing is a whole new subject. 
Thanks for video tutorials on YT.com, makes it more convenient.

I realized that I do not need powder for daily use because it gives me a dry feeling o_o, so leaving the concealer alone may do the trick. However, due to sweat and oil, the concealer will most likely be erased after some time, so I got to make an effort about it or -- change the brand. I am not familiar with other brands techniques to make it last longer. Lol. 

Yeah I'm THAT concerned. I really don't like eyebags XD
Hope to learn more next time :]
