REVIEW: Avon Minerals Blush in Radiance

I got this blush form my friend since I was in college and I still can't believe that its still alive! I still use this from time to time but I know that its almost 2 years from now since I got this for Php150. My friend sold it to me because she said that it was too light for her complexion to show 

So Yeah I grabbed it quickly because I love mireal make up because I don't want to put too much junk into my face and this is regularly sold for Php299 for 2.5g

 

Swatch on hand with flash:

REVIEW: Nichido Multiple Stick in Sunset Glow

Everyone wants to have that blooming glow on their face right? who wouldn't want that

When I was at SM Bicutan running around my errands, I saw this on sale at watsons 50% off! I swatched it immediately on the back of my hand and I was in love with it I bought it for Php84 as I remembered correctly.

                    the label was scratched off because I always put this on my makeup pouch :)

                                I totally love adore the effort of Nichido on putting exp. date

                                               the flash ate the color sorry about that

                                               see how lovely this multiple stick is?

                                when blended, you will have this beautiful glow on your face

REVIEW: L'Oreal HiP Color Presso Lip Gloss in Classy

I have a lot Lip products and my most Go-to products are Lipgloss. Of course, we shold be aware that Lipgloss can cause Lip cancer because it refracts the sunlight to our lips just like a magnifying glass would fire up a leaf by itself, So be always careful in using products you put on your face.

I have this L'Oreal HiP Color Presso in Classy in a set together with Rimmel Extra Super Lash mascara and L'Oreal Paris, Bare Naturale, Gentle Mineral Eye Shadow because I won in an auction YEY! all for 170 Php plus Php 40 for the shipping fee. The Lipgloss would normally retail for Php585 or USD 12 at any L'Oreal Stall in SM.

The upper has no gloss so you can see the difference :)

OVERALL RATING:

Pros:

* not sticky when applied on the lips

*gives nice amount of gloss not SHINE

* has mild candy scent which I love

* last mmidday

Con:

* not pigmented as I was hoping it to be

What do you think?

REVIEW: Rimmel London Extra Super Lash Mascara

Last Thursday, I bid in an auction and I won! haha!! I won a set of Rimmel mascara, eyeshadow and  lipgloss from L'Oreal all for only Php170(USD 5 at most) isn't that a great Steal?and the Host was really sweet to give me a Hello Kitty Mosquito Repellent Bracelet So Cute!

 Today I'm going to review the Rimmel London's Extra Super Lash Mascara regularly priced for Php 150 or 3 USD here in the Philippines. Before I bid I always see to it that I had read some reviews about the product. I read that this product is awesome except the fact that its not waterproof (from Makeupalley)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

has a mild scent that reminds me of Peanuts :) Yes it smells like Peanuts, I don't know why

the wand looks like this

swatch on my hand

my lashes without the mascara(sorry for being out of focus, I have no one to picture it for me)

three coats of mascara :)

TEST TIME!!

TRANSFERPROOFINESS:

I was so shocked that it was not completely dried after 30 seconds facing our heavy duty fan! 

WATERPROOFINESS:

I put the water under my eyes just because this would normally happen 

PANDA EYES BOOM!

OVERALL RATING:

Pros:

* does its job very well in defining my lashes

*doesn't clump that much even if you had put a lot of coats

* great for dry and cold seasons 

*stays all day but be careful not to cry or else 

Con:

* cannot be in contact with liquid or it will give you PANDA EYES!! 

I know that it had a waterproof version of this mascara.Would definitely check that out! :) 

ACNE JOURNAL: Day 32

Hello Guys! Im very happy to tell you that since last week I didn't get new breakouts and no new bumps this week! Cheers to that :)

 My Daily Routine is wake up in the morning to prepare my nieces to school then I do some household chores, clean hamsters' cage and then start my regimen for the face. In the morning, I wash my hands first with anti-bacterial soap and then wash my face with the Acne Bar soap with tretinoin. Then, I use first the Clarifying Lotion that my derma gave me after that I put Clindamycin and then I put Pond's White Beauty only where are acne scars are seen I don't wanna put it on my entire face because I prefer spot treatment :)

the redness in my nose is a scratch from my growing nails! I told you  I have the tendency to hurt myself  unconsciously when I have longer nails

Left cheek

 right cheek

 

 look at my Clarifying Lotion and Clindamycin its almost emty! but its okay it served me for 1 month and a day for now. I think it will last for a week

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Just let me know if you want some review about this cream :)




I'm really happy and confident that I'm having a clearer complexion again. Even my friends and relatives are seeing alot of difference before I went to the derma and Im really Happy that I did instead of everyday searching for expensive and inexpensive even home made products that would hopefully cure my acne. 


I only had one regret and that is I should have gone to the derma straight away as I had breakouts rather than being myself doctor . The waste of money and time in experimenting a lot of products that promised to clear my skin but didn't. and mostly, my hopes to the products that didn't work as fast as this was the most unhealthy feeling, the feeling of helplessness and breakouts eating your self-esteem. I know that you are familiar with that feeling. 


I hope that everyone would read my Acne Journal to help themselves or to be a reminder that going to the Derma isn't expensive because it was completely worth the try and there is no false promises because they only promise is that they will surely help your skin condition even if how bad it is. If you don't know where the place to go check your local hospitals, I'm sure that you can find legit Dermatologists there but its cheaper to visit clinics and much accessible than the hospital (no very long patient queues and no super busy Dermatologists).


My Visit to the Derma cost me Php 2500 included the Acnesurgery, 5 prescibed products and the Php 350 check up fee all in 2 hours. Unlike before I was like researching the net the whole day, next day watch youtubers and read alot of reviews, the next day finding the products that I've read about spending thousands of Philipine peso to some product that I don't know if would work for me. See the Efforts and the time wasted? Don't just walk on your own there are people specialized to solve your skin problems okay :) Don't buy those cheap products even if it is cheap you still don't know what will happen 


DO NOT GAMBLE YOUR HEALTH GUYS ^^
