Review: 4U2 Envy Radiance Powder

This powder is definitely my favorite. I have tried several powders before from low to high-ends but this is by far the best powder for me. I love the texture of the powder. It is very fine and gives the face a true satin flawless finish. There is really no need to apply foundation if you apply this on. It is true to its name, the skin remains radiant and glowing. One unique thing about this is that the one for dry skin perfectly matches or suits my oily skin. It is kind of weird though but I really like the effect. I highly recommend this product. Bought this from SM Department Store. Rating: 5/5

Review: Monea Hair Coat by Swallow

The quality of this product is good. It gives the hair the needed moisture without the heavy or greasy feel. One thing that I do not like about this product though is the smell. I really cannot stand the scent when applied to the hair. This is the reason why I seldom use this. It is cheap at less than Php100 (USD2). Bought it from Watsons. Rating: 3/5

Review: Careline Cheek Tint in Berry Red

I am impressed with how this product delivers. I like the idea the I can use it not only as a blush but also as a lipstain. The color is just right if you apply with a light hand. It is pretty long lasting. Bought it at less than Php100 (USD2) from Mercury Drugstore. Rating 4/5

Review: Paint Box by Herbench

I do not like this product at all. Bought this cheek tint few years ago that I can no longer recall the price. As you will see in the photos, there is still a lot left for I do not really use this anymore. I find it sticky and difficult to apply on the cheeks and it gets blotchy as well. I would not repurchase this product. Purchased this from Herbench outlet. Rating: 1/5

Review: Nichido Powder Blush in Peach Glow

I bought this product due to some good reviews I read in the internet. I like the touch of peach in this blush. Although sometimes I need to swipe more to bring color to my cheeks, I love the product nonetheless. This is my alternative if I do not feel like wearing pink blush. It is also cheap at less than Php100 (USD2). Bought it from Landmark. Rating 3/5

Review: In2it Waterproof Blush in 03 Sensation

I am not a fan of this blush. It claims that it is waterproof yet it is not long lasting. It is also not highly pigmented, need to swipe the blush brush several times before I see the product on my cheeks. It is also difficult to choose the right shade because the counter has limited shades only. Got this shade because it is the one recommended by the sales lady. Bought at SM Dept. Store. Cost is Php300 (USD7) Rating: 2/5

Review: Ever Bilena lipsticks in Pink flame and scarlet

When it comes to affordable but quality matte lipsticks I think no brand could beat Ever bilena. I have the shades in pink flame and scarlet. Love them both. Pink flame has sweet gentle light pink shade, perfect if you want to have that innocent look. Scarlet on the other hand has a deep orange-reddish shade, appropriate if you want to have the so-called glamorous look. Love this shade on me as I have a fair skin. The shade would instantly brighten my face. One weakness of this product though is that it is drying on the lips. Thus, you need to apply lipbalm before putting this on. Over-all I would highly recommend these lipsticks. Cost is
P120+ each (USD4). Rating: 4/5.


PS - pardon the quality of my photos and the poor lighting. Really need to get a new camera soon.

Review: Elf Two-Way Cake Foundation

This a product from elf that I really like and currently using. This is my second purchase already. It has good coverage and covers the facial blemishes without being heavy. It's a bit chalky but it covers well and it has a yellow undertone. I also love the fact that it did not irritate my acne-prone skin. It is inexpensive at P250+ (USD6).Bought it from Landmark. Rating: 4/5

Review: Ever Bilena Advance 3D Compact

This is just a so-so product for me. I bought this primarily as my contouring powder. I got the darkest shade which is the Dark Baked Fusion. The compact contains 3 shades of brown with a matte finish. It is inexpensive at P135 more or less (USD5). But it does not last long on me. The product is just good for 2 hours. Bought it at Landmark. Rating: 2/5

Review: Avon Simply Pretty

Avon Simply Pretty Fresh Radiance Make up Base

I am totally not impressed with this product. It is supposed to make your make-up lasts longer but it does nothing to my over oily face. Eventhough it is cheap at a little over a P100.00 (USD3), I believe it is a waste of money as I did not notice any difference on my make-up look. Bought this from an Avon distributor. Rating: 2/5

Review: San San Concealer

San San Concealer Age Defense No. 2

I love the product. I was inspired by one of the beautybloggers because of her detailed review of this product. The tube contains a lot for its price. It is inexpensive at P126.00 (USD4). The consistency is thick enough to cover the undereye dark circles. You just have to blend really quick otherwise it will create light patches in the area. Bought the product at HBC in Makati. Rating: 4/5

Hi everyone!

The reviews will be straightforward and relatively short. Will also try to post a photo of the product for your reference.  Enjoy and  do not forget to comment. God bless!
