Unboxed: The Balm Hot Mama

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/24tlXaQ  I have been a long time avid fan of @thebalm_cosmetics highlighters and eyeshadows. I think that the #thebalmmeetmattenudepalette is one of the best eyeshadows palettes I've ever owned in terms of value for money, concept and quality and #thebalmmaryloumanizer was my very first highlight (it's still the best one). When i unearthed an older video of @kathleenlights on youtube where she said she thinks its a dupe for orgasm and she even prefers it, i had to try it out. Upon testing it, it (and Kathleen) did not disappoint. I will be reviewing this very soon. #makeup #beauty #product #makeupproduct #cosmetics #twitter #blogger #beautyblogger #beautyobsessed #beautyobsession #makeupaddict #makeupaddiction #beautyaddict #beautyaddiction #makeupjunkie #beautyjunkie #kathleenlights #thebalmcosmetics

Cheap Thrill: Essence Sun Club All-in-One Bronzing Highlighter

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1T6d8vr First off, a bronzing highlighter sounds confusing. I know. The name could use a bit more thought. Nevertheless, this is a great product because of its versatility and price. It can be a bronzer, a highlighter, a blush, a blush topper and even an eyeshadow. The use all just depends on which part you dip your brush or if you want to swirl it all together to combine all the colors. And, for all that, it will only cost you P309. As a plus, this smells like coconut. I admit, i smell this more often than i use this. It smells divine. Stay tuned for looks using this one.  #makeup #makeupproduct #cosmetics #makeupaddict #makeupjunkie #makeupobsessed #beautyaddict #beautyjunkie #beautyobsessed #makeupobsession #beautyobsession #ilovemakeup #summeressentials #essencecosmetics #twitter #beauty #beautyblog #beautyblogger

Makeup Review: Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1T2pZPJ Are you ready for this? This liquid lipstick is intense. I love this color. It's a true true red so it'll complement most skin tones. For those who are wary of red lipstick because they're scared of looking like a clown don't worry because this will not do that. I also love the pigmentation. It's quite opaque. You can easily get even pigmentation on your lips. Plus the applicator is easy to use. I don't know if it's just me but i find applying liquid lipsticks difficult without a lip liner. I had an easier time using the applicator of this lipstick in terms of outlining my lip shape specially the curves of my top lip than my other liquid lipsticks.  The only downside to this is i think it wears off faster in that inner lip area than my other liquid lipstick when i eat or drink and it feels drier than my other liquid lipsticks. It's does not necessarily make my lips dry because my lips do not chap or crack when...

Short Review: Nars Taj Mahal

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/26h0ioe This blush is beautiful in the pan and it is beautiful applied. I know it looks daunting but you can definitely use this because it blends out so well. It is specially great now because it's so summery and hot and everyone gets a tan whether we like it or not and this just goes with that tan. #nars truly has the best blushes. The other products i used for this look are my ol reliables. They are tagged in the pic. Lip products are #makeupforeverofficial Mat 1 with a #narsissist gold digger lip gloss. #makeup #beauty #makeupreview #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #makeupjunkie #beautyaddict #ilovemakeup #beautyobsessed #twitter #blogger #beautyblogger #motd #makeupoftheday #narsmakeup #narscosmetics

Unboxed: Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1WGHWsz I went to the Stila counter to buy a gift for my grandmother's sister who was turning 90(!) and came away with one gift for her and TWO for myself. This was all thanks to a generous being who apart from the two lipsticks also got me a Stila Kitten set and a Nars set from the Red Tag sale. May i just add this guy spotted these sets all by himself and brought them to my attention. I'm still on the hunt for Patina and Fiery which are always out of stock. Any tip as to the location of these two will be well appreciated. #stila #stilacosmetics #stilaalldayliquidlipstick #lotd #lipstickoftheday #lipstickaddict #lipstickaddiction #liquidlip #liquidlipstick #makeup #beauty #ilovemakeup #makeupaddiction #makeupobsession #makeupobsessed #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #makeupjunkie #beautyaddict #beautyobsessed #twitter #blogger #beautyblogger #beautyblog

My Favorite Concealer Kryolan Dermacolor

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1SrkJuI  I've noticed the Kryolan store for years now but i never took any real interest because i wasn't familiar with their products. There's not much information here in the Philippines about the brand. I've gathered it's well-known around makeup artist circles (in which i do not belong). Thankfully @gossmakeupartist posted a video about it hailing it as one of the best concealers out in the market. That very week i trooped to the nearest branch and got it. True to Wayne's word it was incredibly pigmented. Comparatively speaking it's reasonably priced as well. It's been my go-to undereye concealer ever since because nothing makes that area as bright as this. Plus @kryolanofficial makes them in the widest spectrum of color I've ever found. You can definitely find a shade that matches your skin. Shown here is the #kryolandermacolor palette. I use the three lightest colors the most. I use the third from the left to cor...

Unboxed: Nars Taj Mahal Blush

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/20Hqswp I admit to having an affinity for vivid and bright blushes. I think they are so flattering on medium to dark skin because they impart that glow without the risk of looking chalky or muddy. So, when i saw this one i just couldn't tear my eyes and paws away from it. I had to have it. This was sometime ago. Months ago. I have been biding my time, saving this for summer as these shades are best when you have a little tan. It is finally that time. Check in soon for makeup looks using this pretty. #nars #narsissist #narsblush #narstajmahal #blush #makeup #beauty #unboxed #unboxing #beautyism #twitter #beautyblog #beautyblogger #haul #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #makeupjunkie #beautyaddict #makeupobsessed #makeupobsession #cosmetics #ilovemakeup

Nars

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/23tMPur I was so happy with my package from @narsissist yesterday that i had to use them so i did this look after work. I ended up with a full face of makeup and nowhere to go but home. It's all good though. I put makeup on just for myself most of the time and that's fine. On my lids is #narseyeshadow in Mortal. On my eyelashes is #narsaudacious mascara. #motd #makeupoftheday #fotd #faceoftheday #beauty #makeup #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #makeupjunkie #beautyaddict #ilovemakeup #makeupobsessed #makeupobsession #makeupbyme #instamakeup #instabeauty #narscosmetics #narsmakeup #narsstevenklein #twitter #blogger #beautyblogger

Package From Nars

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1Q3XEGC This just came via FedEx today from @narsissist ! I am so giddy to get this. Thank you so much. I am deeply humbled and thankful that you noticed my little IG account. This is so special to me because I cannot go a day without at least one #nars product. I could just have Nars products and I'd be happy so I am beyond ecstatic right now. Thanks again @narsissist 😄 #nars #narsissist #narsmakeup #narscosmetics #narsstevenklein #narslipstick #narsaudacious #narsaudaciousmascara #makeup #beauty #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #makeupjunkie #beautyaddict #twitter #blogger

Hey Monday

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/23ocy7D  I am using four 150-peso products today and they are all from @essence_cosmetics Essence is a german company although i noticed that my products were made in Italy. Not only are their products budget-friendly they also perform extremely well. Their mascaras are my HG and their translucent powder holds up against powders 10x the price. I am falling in love with their blushes too. They blend well, are not chalky and impart a healthy glow. I'll show them to you sometime. Best thing, the price range of Essence cosmetics is 200 to 400 pesos and they go on sale for as low as 100 PESOS!

Best Makeup Remover Wipes

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1NhW3x5 Take your makeup off this weekend with Bioré makeup wipes. I've tried several other makeup remover wipes in past, high end and drugstore, but i have had nothing that took off my eye makeup and mascara and eyeliner better than these. Even waterproof budge-proof mascaras melt and wipe away and they are so gentle on the skin. They do not leave my skin raw or dry but nor is it greasy mess. I love these so much that i have been neglecting to use my cleansing oils because i don't need them anymore. These wipes do a much better job. They are perfect for travel too or to just keep in your bag during the day because they come in small handy 10-piece packs like these. Of course, they also come in a bigger pack with a dispenser if you want to keep some in your vanity. The only downside is these can be a little bit pricey because you're kinda paying nine pesos per wipe so i suggest you reserve these for when you have really heavy makeup and stub...

Maybelline Creamy Mattes

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/23mWWhg Yesterday, after errands, i passed by the maybelline kiosk at Landmark Trinoma and saw that they had restocked. So, I thought I'd do a quick recap of all the @maybelline #creamymatte lipsticks i used in my recent posts as a way to tie it all in and remind you how awesome they are before they're all gone (again). From top to bottom, these are swatches of: Touch of Spice (most people's fave) Faint for Fuchsia Mesmerizing Magenta (my fave) Vibrant Violet Craving Coral Siren in Scarlet Rich Ruby Divine Wine I highly recommend these lipsticks. I've never seen such a beautiful range of colors at such affordable prices. I also really like the texture that's more creamy than matte because it makes them smoother and easier to apply. They are not as opaque as MAC retro mattes or my Nars Audacious lipsticks but an extra swipe or two to build the color and make it even does not bother me. They also last a long time on the lips. I find th...

Rich Ruby

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/1S1BJaw The last in my #maybelline creamy matte series, Rich Ruby is a slightly dark red that's closer to a true red than Siren in Scarlet. While it's darker, it's also more toned down than Siren and has blue undertones as opposed to Siren's orange undertones. This kind of red goes very well with an evening gown or a power suit or a sleek dress because it conveys a mix of sass and sophistication. As with all the other lipsticks in the creamy matte range, this was not a true matte. That's fine though because, instead, this had a creamy-satiny finish that applied smoothly and, unlike most mattes, was not drying on the lips. It's actually a bit hydrating.  Face primer #smashbox primer water Base #makeupforever #giorgioarmani Contouring #clinique chubby stick Concealer #kryolan under the eyes and #nars radiant creamy concealer everywhere else Eyeshadow #mac soft ochre paint pot, a couple of #shuuemura shadows from the nude pale...

Siren in Scarlet

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/23ahTvH Today was such a typical monday. I didn't have time for lunch, much less contouring or high lighting or complicated eye makeup. BUT, i had time for red lipstick. There's always time for red lipstick. This is the first time I'm wearing this lipstick and i can already say that this will be one of my favorites. True to the #maybelline #creamymatte formula, #sireninscarlet was creamy with a semi-matte finish. I don't know about you but i prefer my lip products like this because i like my lips moisturized. Chapped lips are so uncomfortable. I also found this shade flattering. It's one of those reds that brightens the face. Plus, it's very wearable because it's softer and more muted than a berry red or an orangey red. If you're new to red lipsticks and you wanna try one this summer, grab this. It has a lil bit of orange in it, which is so on trend during summer. Additionally, you probably won't regret buying it at o...
