Delightful Illusions: maybelline

Hi! How are you guys doing? I am doing great and I am so grateful that me and my family are healthy. For today's post, I decided to share with you the products that I am decluttering and why I am removing them from my makeup collection. I have accumulated a lot of makeup products this year and my drawers and trays are getting full so I picked up some stuff that I don't like anymore or I hate since they are just getting old in my collection untouched. Some these products might be your holy grail, and I totally respect that, but I can't just let them sit on my makeup drawer when I can pass these on to somebody and get used.

As a makeup blogger, I always buy things to try and sometimes my drawers are getting full. I am fully aware that some makeup products expire than the others ones and them just sitting on my collection isn't good at all. The products that I am decluttering are still fresh, I haven't used and abused them, that's why I am passing them on to my co-worker's 11-year old daughter. This kid is really really good at doing makeup looks and I am more than happy to share her the stuff that I am no longer using. I always pass on makeup products to her and I am pretty sure that she will like these new set of stuff I am about to give her.

Vice Cosmetics Aura Glow - Shimmering

To be honest, I was not impressed with this highlighter when I tried it. This was raved by a lot of Filipino beauty influencers when the collection came out. Its's a nice highlighter but it isn't amazing at all. The texture is a little dry and the thick consistency isn't something I want from a highligter. This feels more like an eyeshadow rather than a skin highlighter. I feel really bad not liking this since I love all of the Vice Cosmetics products that I tried. If I remember correctly, I haven't used this more than 10 times and I have bought this over a year ago. That's a clear sign that I am not touching this anytime soon either and I might as well just pass this on to somebody that would actually use this.

Ever Bilena Advance Contour Shade and Light Palette

I appreciate the fact that Ever Bilena always producing consistently new products but I don't like this palette. The highlight shades are so similar and the contour shades are more of bronzers than contour powders. The only powder I liked from this is the first contour shade which I used more as a bronzer. I really don't think that this palette sucks, I just don't like the shades for my light skin tone. They look muddy on me, to be honest. I feel like that this brand are always hit or miss with their face products. If you remembered back in 2018, they also released the Pro Cheek Set (limited edition) and they claimed that it was universal when it really isn't at all. I have bought this just last February and I haven't abused it yet, so I guess I can pass this on to somebody else as well.

REVLON Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen and Triple Edge

I got this for free when I purchased one of their hair dyes last year. This eyeliner is the worst liquid eyeliner I have tried. It isn't pigmented as opposed to what they have claimed. It's has this watery consistency which creates a mess and kind of leaks on the other parts of my eyelids. Just no. I might just throw this one out because I don't think anyone will have the patience to make this product work.

AVON Simply Pretty Blush

I have bought this last May thinking that this would be a cute pink blush to put on my cheeks. I was wrong; this is so sheer, has barely any pigment, and just a teenager's makeup in general. Again, I will pass this on to Sam because I think she will like this.

Essence All About Chocolates Eyeshadow Palette

This eyeshadow palette is old and I am pretty much sure that they make this anymore. Essence eyeshadows are nice but they are so fragile. As you can see from the photo above, the upper left shade is already gone because it just fell from the pan one day and lower middle shade was repressed because it just decided to crack. That's the thing with Essence powder products; they are really good but super fragile. The second shade is my favorite from this palette but I don't want to keep this just for that gorgeous shadow. I am sure that I could find a dupe or similar shade from my collection.

Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Quad - Silent Treatmemt

I remember when the Silent Treatment Trio took over the beauty community and everyone was raving about the silver taupe shade. That was an epic moment for the brand until they decided to re-formulate their already bomb eyeshadow formula and replaced it with a "meh" eyeshadows. I was so excited to try this because I was curious to see what that infamous taupe shade looked like and I have never been so underwhelmed with an eyeshadow before. Their original formula for eyeshadows are better than this. For me, this is an "okay" eyeshadow quad and I think there are other cool-toned eyehsadows with similar price range. If you have the Zoeva En Taupe Eyehsadow Palette, you don't need this one. I think that Sam (my officemate's daughter) will love practicing smokey eye looks with this quad.

Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser

This primer is one of the most raved products from Maybelline and everybody was into this back on the day. To be honest, I don't silicone-based face primers even though I have oily skin. I don't like the feeling that the my skin can't breath and my oils are trapped on my pores. I would rather blot my face a few times a day rather than trapping oils on my face and feels greasy as I apply it on my skin. I also noticed that it didn't blur out any of my pores; the only thing that this blurred out was my interest for it. I don't hate this product, but I don't like it either and I have no problems departing with this. I have given this a fair chance but primers like this are not really for me.

AVON Simply Pretty Matte Lipstick

This AVON lipstick has the wost matte formula I have ever tested. It is so not wearable, has that rough patchy texture and just not overall friendly on the lips. I only tried this shade so I don't if the others have the same formula. This one is just a plain no to me.

L'OREAL Paris Signature Rouge Matte Liquid Lipstick

This is a cute liquid lipstick but I just don't wear this type of pink anymore. I love nudes and brown lipsick shades. This was a gift from my sister-in-law and I feel guilty not using this more. This is more of a lip tint than a lipstick and I don't such products. I may have used this 3 or 4 times and haven't touched this again.

Focallure Single Eyeshadow - Feather

Lastly, I am decluttering this eyeshadow because I just don't use this. I like this color, the formula is easy to work with, and is good overall. I used this once last year and I haven't used it again since then. There is nothing wrong with this eyeshadow, I just don't want this to sit in my collection and never use it again. I got this for free from a purchase and I think that they are not making this anymore.

These are the products I am decluttering but I think the title should have been "Products I Hate" because all I did was pretty much complain about the quality and performance of these products. I still have products to declutter and I might post about those using the title I mentioned. Haha! Anyway, I am so happy that I could get rid some of the makeup I don't use anymore and give them a new home. I have so much stuff to post and I hope you stay tuned to read more. Thank you so much for stopping by. I will talk to you soon. Have a nice day. Stay safe.

Hi, guys! Welcome to my March 2016 Favorites post! :) I missed February, and so I thought I would share my favorites this month because they are actually the same from the previous month. I got to discover some skin care and makeup products last last month and I loved most of them. There are some things mentioned in this post like application technique and product combinations. If you are interested to know them, just keep on reading. :)

Maybelline Color Show Lipstick in True Toffee

It's one those lipstick that you will love for the rest of your life after you have applied this on your lips. I'm not even exaggerating guys. The formulation is creamy, has smooth application on the lips, and moisturizing all through out the wear. The products claims to be long lasting and rich in pigmentation, which I think is true based on my experience. This True Toffee shade comes off as peachy nude which has a cool to neutral tone. I'm a light-skinned with warm undertone person; I didn't think cool-toned nude lip colors will not look good on me. If you are looking for an affordable, great quality, long lasting lipsticks, check Maybelline's Color Show makeup line.

AVON Simply Pretty Lip Defining Pencil in Nude

Another AVON product again. Yay! Honestly, there's not a single makeup product from AVON that I didn't like. The products that I got from this brand are all great. I'm not kidding, guys. Anyways, I loved this lip liner the past month (and still it is this month) because it's a easy use; it's a no-brainer product, glides smoothly on the lips, and easy to clean the excess. This products looks pretty dark on the liner, but goes on light on the lips. It comes off as a warm light brown shade which actually looks good together with the lipstick I mentioned above. I highly highly recommend this lip liner if you are looking for a budget friendly but good one.

These are the swatches of the products I just talked about. As you can see, the other one is cool-toned and the the other is warm-toned. I have worn this combination during a celebration event we had last week; I have loved it because the products stayed long on my lips for hours. I have only retouched once. Anyways, please excuse my face here, my falsies was still wet and my eyes were feeling heavy. Haha!


Human Nature Purifying Facial Scrub and Human Nature Balancing Face Toner

"A good skin is a happy skin. A happy skin is a healthy skin. The more organic the ingredients are, the better." That was my quote, which I said during my mini makeup lesson that I have given to my office mates last Monday. Recently, I was starting to ditch my skin care products because I wanted to use organic products for my skin care routine. Human Nature is a local brand that has emerged years and years ago on the Philippine Market, aiming to bring an array of 100% organic skin care products without the high price.

I have recently ran out of a facial scrub, so I browsed a grocery for a new scrub to try on. I saw the Human Nature Purifying Facial Scrub which has real strawberry seeds. Strawberry seeds used as a face scrub?? Wow, that's sounds so cool! I love how this scrub makes my skin feel cleansed and purified without feeling the usual tightness I feel with other face scrubs. It has that clean sweet scent which isn't overwhelming at all. It's not really for fighting for oiliness and pimples, but it is a gentle scrub for daily use. If you are looking for an affordable organic face scrub, check this product out.

I also bought this Human Nature Balancing Face Toner because I remember loving this way back on 2012; It was year I first tried this product. I loved it, and I love it still. It feels light and gentle, somewhat moisturizing, and smells so nice.This toner is never tightening nor drying. I love it a lot. Enough said! :)

Daiso Hyaluronic Acid Mixing Face Mist

An acid mixing mist for your face?? Is that safe, Sylden?? Haha! Worry not, my friends. This is a safe mist that could be used daily. I have searched the internet about this Hyaluronic Acid and I found out that this acid is used on products that helps heal wounds, dry pimples, and other related stuff. This product is not bad at all! I bought this because I was intrigued to see how this works that first I time I saw it on the store. This is nice for moisturizing the face before applying makeup, setting the face, mixing it with flaky eye shadows, and a lot. I love how this fixes my face when a product decides to cake on my skin suddenly. :) This is a life saver! Haha! I might forget to mention that this has alcohol and isn't organic at all. I don't if this is even safe for sensitive skin. If you have no any problematic skin conditions, this might work for you as well.

The next thing I'm gonna talk about is actually a technique I learned from Michelle of ReadySetGlamour. A couple of months ago, she uploaded a video about Do's and Don't s of makeup. One of the techniques that really caught my attention was the one in which she demonstrated to set the eye primer/base with a powder. I tried the technique the next morning and I was amazed. The powder absorbed the moisture on my lids, making the eye shadows to blend better and lasts all day long. I also noticed a minimal creasing towards the end of the day. If you haven't done this technique, please try it. You will love it and see the difference. I use the Esssence I Love Stage Eyeshadow Base on my lids and set it with the Clean and Clear Oil-Control Pressed Powder. This combination works for me and I love it. :)

Victoria's Secret Fearless Fragrance Mist

Oh My God. This perfume describes me -- FEARLESS. It's sweet, sour, fruity and alluring at the same time. Victoria's Secret described this as: "Attitude is everything in this modern take on a seductive floral scent, here in a sheer fragrance mist." The scent is floral with blackcurrant, purple diamond iris and orris notes. The scent kind of reminds me of the ZARA Oriental Eau de Toilette, which has girly seduction in it. They're not on the same family of notes, but they are on the same family of floral fragrances. They have both seductive scent; the VS is hardcore and the ZARA is toned down. Anyways,I love this Fearless Fragrance for everyday use. It's something that screams "me". I'm a fearless person and I know it. Haha!

Those are my favorites for the month of February and March. What are your current favorites? Please share those with us by leaving a comment down below. I love reading and replying to comments. :) If you have any requests, please let me know. Thank you so much for reading my favorites. I hope you enjoyed this post. I will talk to you soon. Have a great week, everyone. Stay safe. XOXO

Hey, guys! I know, I know. I have for too long, I'm sorry. Work and practicum (for Graduate School) have almost killed me, made me sick, due to a busy schedule. This is the 4th week that I'm working on weekends and I'm starting to feel lazy. Have you ever felt like that? Haha! Anyways, I will be talking about the updates of my Products I Want To Use Up in 2016 Challenge. I started this project last January; I promised that to give updates every two months.

Of all the project pans I have done, this is by far the successful one, even though I'm just doing this for two months. I am actually using the products involved constantly; I am determined to finish what I have started this fine. My progress will be seen on the pictures you will see in a moment. If you are interested on my update, just keep on reading. :)

Clinique Different Lipstick in A Different Grape (right) - I've been using this pinkish grape (according to the description) shade a lot since January. It looks way too dark, but I tell you, it has a light swatch on the lips. It's buildable and has creamy, thick consistency. As you can see, I have used this more than the lipstick on the left. I'm totally into this shade. I hope I could finish this at the end of the year. It's getting old.

Clinique Different Lipstick in Shy (left) - This is described as a midtone violet, which is kind of contrary in person. It swatches on my lips as a sheer plum-berry glossy shade. It feels like a lip gloss; has a higher amount of shine than the A Different Grape. They actually look similar; Shy is a sheer glossy version of A Different Grape. This product is a struggle for me, I can't use this alone because it's so sheer. I don't use this all the time. I doubt if I can even finish this lipstick this year. I'll see what I can do.

Etude House Look At My Lips in 04 - A pale pink shade which isn't really good-looking on my lips; doesn't match my skin tone quite well. Though it's nice to top on my dark lipsticks. I mainly this for topping and combing with other lipsticks. Maybe I could use this up at the 2nd or 3rd Quarter of the year.

San San Age Defense Lipstick in 03 - A peachy nude glittery lipsticks which smells like chocolate. I have used a lot of this the first time I got this. It blends in with other lip products nicely, though the glitter are kind of messy. Evidently, you can see how I love this lippy. I ought to finish this one because I don't want this to go bad. I will be done with this in a couple of months, I guess.

Mary Kay Eye Mineral Color in Honey Spice - You can see some deep going on there! I have used this as my main eye lid shade since the last week of January. It looks pretty and brightening. On the next update, maybe you'll see the pan already. Haha!

Ever Bilena Advance HD Eye Pencil in Natural Blonde - I love this as an eyeshadow base. It's thick consistency helps the eyeshadow to stick on the lids longer. I also notice less creasing upon checking up at the end of the day. Maybe I'll use this up in 3 months. Let's see.

AVON Glimmerstick Cosmic Eye Liner in Galactic Green - A glittery moss green eyeliner which sticks on my lash line all through out the day. I also use this as an eyeshadow base, at times. I still have a lot to use up. May you'll see a shorter stick on the next update.

Etude House Look At My Eyes Pearl Shadow Base - Yay! A wider pan. I used a good amount of this cream shadow base over the past 2 months. It tends to be glittery when I put too much on my lids. It goes way up to my crease when I blend this product on my eyes. I hope 50% of this base on the next update.

Etude House Look At My Eyes Cafe in Honey Milk - Umm.. I haven't got a significant progress on this one yet. I use this to highlight my brow bones. I need to get on the pan of this really quickly. I need to double time on this one.

Nichido Foundation Stick in Ivory - I'm almost there! I use this as a concealer on my dark circles. It has tint of peach-orange, perfect for discoloration on my under eyes. I know I could use this one up towards the end of the year.

Elf Contouring Blush and Bronzing Powder - This blush is another struggle for me. It's pretty, but the product itself is hard. It's sheer and glittery. In order to speed up, I use this on top of a shadow to create a peachy golden glow.

Revlon CustomEyes Shadow/Liner in Naturally Glamorous - I have saved the last product for the best. I have hit pan on 3 shadows in just 2 month! How satisfying is that!? I have this shadow palette for years, and I have just hit the pans recently. I'm happy though. Seeing the pan means your are getting closer to finishing it up. My target is to hit pan on the rest of the shadows this month; and wider pans on the next update.

REPLACEMENTS

The following products are replacements for the original items included on this challenge. My IN2IT Supreme Eyeliner was accidentally broken because I dropped it last last week. I didn't feel right in claiming that I have finished it so I picked up another item. Then, the Mary Kay Mineral Cheek Color is actually gone bad; it's stiff and hard to use up. I picked another powder blush in replacement.

Elf Studio Blush in Tickled Pink - This is the replacement for the Mary Kay blush. As you can see, I've already hit the pan; this was included on my last project pan challenge. I love this pink blush. It has glitters on it, but is barely visible on the skin. I might use this one up before the year ends. I not sure. Haha! :)

Maybelline Clear Smooth All-In-One Pressed Powder in Nude Beige - This is the replacement of the IN2IT eyeliner. I have this powder since last year and I have used a good amount of this product. This is the best powder for oily skin and it doesn't do what it claims. It's a decent powder for setting my face though. I'm quite sure that I can finish it up this year.

This concludes my update. I think that I'm doing a great job on this challenge this year. I'm now focused and determine to do my projects now. I'm hoping to have a greater job towards my next update. The next one will be on May, so stay tuned for that.

Are you doing beauty projects too? How is your experience so far? If you are interested on my next update, just follow this blog to keep you in touch. Thank you so much for taking the time to read. I'll talk to you soon. Have a great day. Stay safe. Love you all!

Happy Halloween! How's your Trick or Treat going on? I hope it's fun. My Halloween is nothing special because I wanted this day just be in the house since I've just been back from a work travel. I want to relax and stop thinking of work for a while. I just watched Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone since the movie is appropriate for the day. Don't you think? :) October has been crazy and I almost resigned from work. Haha! Anyways, I will be doing a tag today; something I have not done in while and haven't done this year.

I was browsing on makeup blogs a couple of weeks ago when I stumbled upon a blog, Hello Kaily, featuring The Eye Shadow Tag. I find the tag interesting since I am a sucker for eye shadows and these babies dominate my makeup collection.

Of course, there are rules;

1. Tag 3 bloggers to answer these same questions

2. Those bloggers will tag 3 more bloggers of their choice with the same questions and rules.

3. No tag backs.

❣ How many eye shadows do you own?

I have accumulated a lot of eye shadows ever since I started collecting makeup. Actually, I didn't keep them all because I don't like expired stuff on my stash. That is pretty disgusting. But there are shadows I have kept because they hold a great value; some where given to me by my friends. As of the moment, I have 6 singles, 3 mini palettes, 2 palettes, 2 quads, and 2 duos.

❣ What was your first eye shadow?

I cannot remember exactly what was my first eye shadow ever. I have started collecting makeup during my college days and I have really love the Nichido True Colors Collection Eye Shadows. One of my favorites from the line is the Gold Foil eye shadow, a sheer pale gold color. It was my holy grail eye product back then; it was perfect on the lids for daily use and I have repurchased the product twice. I was inspired by MAC's All That Glitters Eye Shadow to look for dupes, but the shade is just not meant to be duped at all.

❣ What is your most worn eye shadow?

MAC's Veluxe Pearl Eye Shadow in All That Glitters! I have shown and talked about this product a lot. Haha! I don't want to be redundant. Anyways, it's the best eye shadow ever. Beautiful on its own, perect for every ocassion.

❣ What is your favorite brand for eye shadows?

Honestly, I don't own a lot of eye shadows in the same brand. I don't have a gigantic collection of makeup and keeping always cleaning my stash. As a beauty blogger, I have quite a fair share of experiences to the community. For the past 6 years buying and using makeup, I have to say that my favorite brand for eye shadows is MAC. Their eye shadow are worth the money you would pay for and would really last a long time.

I have love-hate realationship products with Maybelline products because they have a lot of miss. You could be wasting some money with their products, but their Eye Studio Marbelized Eye Shadows are must-buys. The one shown above is Mocha Mirage; it's super pigmented, blendable, and has buttery texture. It's one if the best I have ever used! The great thing about this is it's affordable and has wide range of selection, though I wish they have matte shades. For creating dimensions and effect,

❣ What is your favorite finish?

Satin is my first pick for any ocassion because it's easy to work with; it won't take much time putting on and isn't boring at all.

❣ What is the last eye shadow you bought?

I have recently purchased this Bobbie Cosmetics Smoked Out! Eyeshadow Palette. I won't go in to details with this because I will be doing an in-depth review with this soon. I think that this is quite new as not many bloggers have talked about this product.

❣ How many eye products do you currently have in your makeup bag?

None as of the moment.

❣ What eye shadows do you use to rock a smokey eye?

Brown eye shadows. I love neutral looks and dark brown eye shadows are perfect for smoking out everyday office looks.

❣ How do you store your eye shadows?

I just store them in my makeup drawer. Maybe one day I'll show you my makeup stash, I got a presentable organization. Haha!

❣ What eye products are you currently lusting over?

I have been eyeing this Autobalm Face California Palette since last year. I would love to own this product because it's perfect for my lifetsyle which is always traveling. This contains 2 eyeshadows, 1 higlighter and 1 blush. This is a must-have for me because it's lightweight.

I hope you enjoyed reading this post and find it intresting. These are the people I tag:

Jhem of Jhem Says
Queenie of Dolled-Up Queen
Lou of Live, Love and Lou
And everybody else who wants to this tag

I hope the people I tagged will do this as it is really fun. If you do this, please send a link. I love doing blog hopping and discovering friends online. Thank you so much for reading. Have a nice day! Stay safe. Sending you all some love. ❤❤💖

Hitting pan on a product is a makeup junkie's happiness. Collecting makeup products is easy, but using them all up is seem next to impossible. That may sound absurd but it's undeniably true. Most videos and blog posts I have seen and read related to this post are products people really love, but, in my case, have hit pan on these products because I don't want to waste my money. I'm the type of person who buys beauty products and try to finish even if I don't like them. You cannot just throw your money all the time, that's ridiculous. Seriously. I also don't like my product to be expired without even consuming half of it. I like to get my money's worth. :)

Panned powder makeup products, of any kind, are the hardest to hit. These bad boys are so compact that they it takes us forever to kick with our makeup brushes until we reach the bottom. Haha! Anyways, I will talk through the products I have "kicked" and tell you some pros and cons.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This peach blush is called Nichido True Colors Collection Powder Blush in Peachy Glow, which is actually included in the blush trio together with other warm-neutral blushes from the said line. I have for quite sometime now and I say that this was the first blush I have hit pan on the palette. There was a time where I used this non-stop because it gives me that healthy glow without looking like somebody just slapped me. I love how it looks natural on my light toned skin with yellow undertones. The only cons I have for this is that it only stays for 2-3 hours and the product itself is chalky. If you are looking for an affordable blush and has a matte formulation, definitely grab this one. You can find this at Watson's and SM Department Stores.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This warm spice blush is also from the blush trio I have mentioned above and it's the color Spice Rum.Though i'm not really quite sure if really is the Spice Rum, but it looks similar with swatches I have seen on other bloggers. I'm sorry, I forgot to look for the on the Nichido counter. Anyways, I was hesitant to use this at first because it looks scary, considering that I have really light yellow skin. Then an idea just popped into my mind as I was looking at this guy. Why not use this as some sort of contour shade because it's warm? This could suit my skintone and undertone. Well, I tried the technique and I can say that it worked. This product makes my other blushes look really good and complimentary. I use this underneath my blushes to create an illusion of contoured face structure. I do not know if this will work with other skin tones as it is really warm and orangey. Why not try it? It's not expensive. :) I have the same issues with this this blush; doesn't last long and chalky.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This shimmery eye base called Look At My Eyes Pearl Shadow Base is from Etude House. I have talked about this before on my August 2013 Favorites post and I still stand that this product is good on its own. Layer this with a lot of eyeshadows on top and it won't crease for extensive hours. I love how it has a creamy texture and applies like a powder in the eyes. It's luminescent, a little bit metallic and glittery. I was surprised to find out that this product takes a long time to hit pan on despite of my usage. The consistency is pretty thick though it's blendable; it could be toned down or up for intensity. The only downside to this is it's packaging; the cover doesn't lock much causing it to be opened inside my makeup bag and mess everywhere. Haha! This is a perfect eye shadow base for on-the-go ladies like me.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I was obsessed with this neutral brown from to-go palette of ELF which is not available anymore. This has a matte formula and is perfect for the crease. It creates dimension once I pair this with shimmery and metallic shadows. How I wish ELF would make an individual shadow of this color and in a bigger size.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This Maybelline To-Go Clear Smooth All In One Shine Free Cake Powder Foundation with SPF 15 in Natural (Woah, a really long name) is a so-so powder. Though it claims to have a medium coverage, it doesn't cover much. It doesn't last long either with or without a primer. It says that it controls oil but it isn't; an hour later I have already an oily face. I think this would be nice for touch-ups and not for foundation. The only good things about this are: 1.) it's matte with silky texture and 2.) it smells a little bit sweet. If you are interested, you can find this at Watson's, SM Department Stores and Robinson's Supermarket.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Another blush from Nichido! Haha! The major reason why I have hit pan on this is that this was my 2nd blush that I purchased when I was just starting with makeup. I have used this a lot during my college days (5 years ago) Haha! By the way, this blush powder is called Passionate Red, also from True Colors Collection. This is a nice blush, gives me a rosy cheeks and is pigmented. All of the Nichido Powder Blushes are in fact pigmented. An individual blush retails for Php 88.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I loved this 2-Way Cake Powder Foundation from Ever Bilena in Natural. It has a medium coverage, it isn't cakey and lasts all throughout the day even without a primer. The oil may come up but the products still stick on my face. The downside to this product is the mirror it came with; it fell and broke. I was on verge on finishing this product when it suddenly slipped on my hands and fell on the ground. It cracked and was broken apart. ;( So sad! Haha! You can fin this at Watson's, SM Department Stores and Grocery.

Those were the products I have hit pan on. I have actually thrown away the other stuff because they were already expired and gross. There's no need to show them. Haha! What are makeup items you have kicked the pan on? Please let me know so I could search for them or share your link if you have posted them on your blog. Thank you so much for stopping by and reading this post. I will talk to you on Saturday or Sunday, I won't be coming home this week (until Wednesday) because I have to facilitate another workshop (work, work, work). Haha! Have a great day. Stay safe. I love you all! ;)
