LAURA MERCIER: Luxe Colour Wardrobe, Dual Decker

This might be the best gift I'll ever receive from my parents. Part because I love make-up and also because this is the first time they have ever given me a gift that involves make up. So let's start?

It is the Laura Mercier Luxe Colour Wardrobe, Dual Decker Colour for eyes and Cheeks. It's cute because it's a dual decker. It has a blending brush, smudge brush, pencil brush and flat angled brush. More after the break!

BENEFIT Sun Beam

Remember that I had an unexpected gift from a friend because it's my birthday. Wen gave me a surprise gift which is a SUN BEAM from Benefit. Actually, I've been eyeing on this product long time because I want to have a liquid highlighter but I'm on a tight budget, kaya kelangan muna mag ipon. Another thing is that it is available in UNICO MODA. Which is an online shop of beauty product owned by a friend of mine Pam. Please drop by their page and I'd really appreciate it if you hit the LIKE button. Thank you so much. Anyway moving on the product.

Post Birthday Surprise!

I was kinda surprised that when I was about to pick up orders of Wen from Unico Moda, Pam gave me a bottle of Benefit Sun Beam with a note. Like as I have told you before, I would really appreciate it if you hit the LIKE BUTTON OF UNICO MODA. They have informed me that they would be having a great sale when they reach a hundred likes! ;)

"SURPRISE! Belated Happy Bday Majjy! Stay Pretty inside and out!

 -Wenny"

Wen ordered a Sun Beam for herself and another one for me. I was really shocked to have something like this. I would like to send my deepest gratitude to Wen, thank you so much. I owe you a make up session! I promise, when we have time I'll teach you some simple things I know. About the Naked 2, it's actually a birthday gift for myself. Oh well, I need to push myself to the limit because it's the start of hell month. Wish our batch a great luck! We badly need that. IN God we Trust forever and ever! Thank you for reading and till next time! ;)

Try Again

Just like yesterday, I tried the kaleidoscope make up done by Ms. Say Tioco Artillero. Now I had a wing effect placed using my gel liner. I still can't get the look and it still ends up like this.

Actually that's practically it. Pink on the inner corners, Gold at the middle, Blue at the outer corner and Purple on the lower lashline. Still I can't get the BONGGA effect I'm looking for. I just loved how the blush showed in this picture and I still love my MAC lipstick villain (looks bude with a bit shimmer.) Anyway, I have nothing else to do but talk about anything. Whatchu doin? ;)

OOTD : Pink shirt & red lips

We're waiting a call from my uncle what time he'll be arriving at the airport from  Norway so I decided to prepare in case he'll arrive in a couple of hours. I used the Power Perfection BB cream sample from The Face Shop that I bought at Ortigas and here's how it turned out.

I don't know if I did that good but I felt it's just enough for a daytime look. After having my moisturizer, I had my ELF all over cover stick just to conceal some blemishes then I applied the BB cream and set it with my Clean and Clear Pressed Powder in Natural. I love this pressed powder and I've been using it for years now because it helps control my oilyness and it hadn't given me any breakout since then. After the Powder I proceeded with the make up.

This is the first time I used a slanted brush and a black eyeshadow to create a wing effect as my liner. Actually, I'm not used to having a winged liner because I always don't get them look similar. White eyeshadow on the lids and brown eyeshadow on the crease using my Fashion21 eyeshadow brushes and that's it. These days I always use my HengFang Mascara, I love how it volumizes my lashes because I have very fine lashes. I wonder if it shows in the pictures but I did use a blush from Avon Smooth Minerals and highlighter from Miners. After that, I used red lipstick just to complete the look. Tell me how I did here? Ok lang ba? ;)

Beauty Products from Sellers ONLINE !!!

Lately I've been crazed about make up and I've been browsing a lot of online beauty shops where I can view different products and brands which are not usually available here in our country. Sometimes the brand is available in some malls but a certain product isn't and that's what online beauty shops are for. The BEST part of these shops is that sometimes they have lower prices, giveaways and even sales! Isn't that cool, great quality of great products for great prices?


Some of the online beauty sellers which has great deals are:
*Krave Minerale Cosmeceuticals
(These are organic skin care products which your skin will thank you for using. These products are used by Ms. Say Tioco Artillero during a make over. They also got the Oil Eliminator which is the best seller as of NOW!)

*Make Up Hub by Naturele Collezione 
(Some of her products are used by Ms. Say Tioco Artillero, I even bought a product from her. You can read it in this post.)

*Fabshopaholic 
(Some of her products are used by blogger Celline of Product Arena and Eloisa of Kikay Si Maria)

*Le Faerie Cosmetics

*The Make Up Suite

*MakeupHOLICS

*Sweet & Sparkle

*Malditta Shopping Box

Anyway, moving on. Karen, a friend of mine is staring her own online beauty shop called The Sparkle House. Like the page and you'll be able to view some of the products she's selling. She said that she'll be having some beauty products at affordable prices. She's got EOS lip balm which has been a craze all over the world for its quality. And MAC body pigment which are highly pigmented is recommended for photos in which you'll appreciate eye make up in HD pictures. Here's a screen shot from her page.

These girls are not just sellers. They are so friendly that you can even ask them what is a good shade of foundation for you or what lipstick can will suit you dress for an occasion. Just contact them, they are always of help and they could be a great friend too! <3

MINERS cosmetics: The Cheek of It Highlighter stick

Last Wednesday, I was just at home waiting for a package from Make Up Hub By Naturele Collezione. It was an online shop that sells cosmetics like Miners, MeMeMe, Models Own and many more. You should go check it out and I would really appreciate if you hit the like button. Anyway, I was really excited to receive the package that I woke up at around 7am just in case Air 21 delivered that early. Too bad it came around 5pm so I wasn't been able to use it that day.


The Cheek of It! Highlighter stick from Miners cosmetics comes in a mini pink tube with a floral design in it. It is just like the ELF all over cover stick that I had last Tuesday. I'm actually so ecstatic to open it when the delivery man handed it to me. This is also very lovely and very easy to use. AND IT SMELLS SOOOOO GOOD!! Just like a lipstick container, you have to twist the lower part of the tube for the product to come out.

May I repeat myself? IT SMELLS SOOOOOO GOOD!!! It really does! What I like about this is it suits my skin color perfectly because it gives enough highlight while maintaining a nice bronzy glow that is not too over powering. It also blends well with the foundation and the blush and I'm still using my blush brush. Here's a swatch of the highlighter. (The shot on the lower part is with a camera flash unlike the upper part. But you can still see the shimmer and it blends perfectly with my skin tone.)

Here's a picture Alvin took. I love it because he just used his camera phone and it's not even HD but the shimmer of the highlight on my cheeks are very noticeable. (Pardon the eyebags. ;P)

Anyway, this is a picture of how I look today.  ;)
