Review : Bioré UV Perfect Bright Milk

Review: Blotterazzi by beautyblender

Oily skin problem??? Check! I have been struggling with oily skin since.....birth, I guess :(  Even when I am in an air-conditioned room, still my "natural oil" bursts out.  So, there's always a blotting paper in my makeup bag (and even inside my car)

Then one day, I came across a post about "beauty must-haves" and then I saw this......

 

 

Real Techniques Deep Cleasing Gel Review

One of the favorite things I love to do (aside from sleeping) is deep cleaning my brushes. Yep! Others dreaded it but me......I LOVE IT! I don't really know.  It's like, it's one of my stress buster.  Whenever I gave my brushes a bath, I feel like I was bathing too.  Sounds really weird, huh?

BYS Velvet Liquid Lipstick

Heya! Glad to be back again with a haul and sort of a first impression.  Nowadays, we can say that matte lipstick has (again) become a fad.  I remember way back in my first year in college, 1996 to say, I used to love to wear matte on my lips.  But before, it was just the LIP----STICK.  There was no lipgloss or liquid lipstick.  All I remember, lipgloss was called "lip shiner".  Makeups weren't that complicated back then hehehe!!!

So anyways, as I was making a stroll in my "happy place" inside the Department Store, I came across with BYS stall and found this Velvet Liquid Lipstick

Nichido Tinted Brow Gel

Hey everyone! Glad to be back. I am here to review a brow gel.  You see, I am so much fund of brow products, be it pencil, powder, gel or mascaras.  For me, grooming and defining your brows makes one's face look younger since brows frame the face.

I will be reviewing the Nichido Tinted Brow Gel.  It comes in 4 shades: Brunette, Salted Caramel, Espresso and Ash Blonde

How to Depot Lippies

Hi everyone! I'd like to show what I just did this Saturday morning.  You see, I have a few lipsticks that have gone to the pan. But I noticed, there's more down under. So I decided to depot them and I'd like to show you how. Forgive the quality of the picture because I am just using my phone to capture what I did. First and foremost, you will need these things:

1. Candle
2. Match or Lighter
3. Small knife with pointed edge
4. Spoon
5. Lipstick
6. Empty Pans
7. Paper towel

So, here's what I did:

1. Scoop the lipstick down to its level and put it on the spoon


2. Place the spoon on top of the lighted candle. Make sure you're an inch or more away because the fire might char your spoon and this will destroy your lipstick once you pour it. Also, swirl the spoon to spread heat.

3. That should how your lipstick will look. Remember, do not bring it to a boil as this may change the composition of your lipstick. Once it is all melted, pour it to the empty pan and let it cool.

 

So there! I hope this would help you in depotting your lipstick. This is just a very short and fun process. Just be very careful since you are dealing with heat and fire ÜÜ


ÜÜÜ stay happy everyone ÜÜÛ

Haul: Ellana Minerals Makeup Brush

hi everyone! So I'm back again with another brush haul....yep, yep! brush again ÜÜÜ I am so, so obsessed with brushes but the good thing is, I am learning to control my obsession.

So anyways, I bought these two brushes from Ellana Minerals by "accident".  You see, I am always in search for powder foundation that doesn't give me breakouts.  I have heard of Ellana before and I have even got their free samples.  But I haven't really tried ordering foundation from them.  So, while I was browsing, my eye caught their brushes (BOOM!).  But I went back to their foundations first since that was the one I'm intending to buy.  After choosing the right products, I decided to go ahead and get myself brushes.  At least, I could save shipping by buying it now than buying it later.  I decided to order their flat top brush first.  When, I got my orders, unfortunately, the powder I chose does not suit for my skin because it was for normal to dry skin.  I, then, ordered for another powder foundation that suits my oily skin, and then again, I got myself another brush which is their round kabuki brush ÜÜÜ

So, here are the brushes:

 the one on top is the round kabuki, while the one down is the flat top.

  Here's a comparison to the famous Sigma's F80

 (left: sigma, right: ellana)

And here's a comparison of Sigma's F82

Each brush costs P350.  It's light handed and soft on skin.  It didn't shed after first wash.  Another happy me ÜÜÜ so if you guys want to have these, just visit Ellana Minerals.  By the way, they have other kind of face brush too


ÜÜÜ stay happy everyone ÜÜÜ
