Review: REVLON Photoready™ Eye Primer + Brightener

12/29/12

image
When did I last blog a make-up product review? It seems a long time ago! Haha! Anyway, I'm here now to brighten up the last days of your 2012. For sure, most of us are on the most zombified state of being due to the holiday season, right? Christmas rush plus late night sleep isn't a good thing. Well, for me I'm actually a vampire *blinks* because of my sleeping habit and that just means hello to the bag or dark circles under my eyes. For now, worry no more because there's a REVLON Photoready™ Eye Primer  Brightener for us to use. 
image
What does REVLON says about this product?
 Revlon’s primers are lightweight primers that soften skin and diffuse light to help minimize flaws and even out skin texture. It creates a perfect canvas so that your foundation will glide on more evenly and smoothly. Primers can be worn alone or under foundation, and are oil free, talc free, fragrance free, paraben free.  
image
  • Try Revlon PhotoReady™ Perfecting Primer to soften skin, reduce the appearance of pores and fine lines, and smooth skin texture and tone.  - Try Revlon PhotoReady™ Color Correcting Primer to brighten skin and neutralize redness while evening out uneven skin tone.
  • Try PhotoReady™ Eye Primer + Brightener to smooth and brighten eye area. Use anywhere on face as a brightening ‘pick me up’!
image
This product comes in a click style pen in which I fell in love with! It's very easy to use, just twist the bottom part and wait for the primer+brightener to comes out of the brush, mind you it took quite long to appear on the first time of use. 
image
I love the color which is somehow a nudy pink then disappears after it is spread out. I do love this as a brightener though it's also a good primer.
image
image
What I love about this:  
  • The packaging :P
  • It's Click Style Pen Applicator
  • A good primer, it really does smothens my lids
  • Easy to blend
  • A little amount is enough to brighten up your eyes
  • Really works well with the dark circles under my eyes
  • Creamy
And what I hate about it: 
  • Nothing in particular. :D
image
TIPS & TRICKS from REVLON:
Revlon PhotoReady™ Eye Primer + Brightener Gently apply around eye area to instantly brighten and rejuvenate. Use on lid so eye shadow lasts and does not crease, or under eye to counteract dark circles and prep for concealer.
image
So overall, I'll recommend this product for everyone to try, we may have different views on it but as for me it's already a good choice because it really brighten up the area around my eye and a good primer as well that holds my eye shadow for a long period of time. This item will always be on my usual make-up kit, no need for a brush because it has it's own, fantastic, isn't? :D

Anyway, have you ever used this product? I would love to hear you, share your thoughts about it. :) 

And oh, kindly like REVLON and Mr. Eman De Leon on facebook. Thank you!

E.L.F. Studio Flawless Finish Foundation Review

12/11/12

image
I've been looking for a very good liquid foundation every now and then. We're all aware that every products has it's own cons and pros but we always aim to find the best out there, right? For me I found the best foundation for me as of the moment (though I know I might find a better one someday) and it's E.L.F. Studio Flawless Finish Foundation. I'm not actually an E.L.F-type-of-girl but I found myself a couple of months ago purchasing products from them.

E.L.F's description of this foundation:
Achieve a flawless complexion with the silky smooth e.l.f. Studio Flawless Finish Foundation. The lightweight and oil-free formula blends in naturally for a beautiful semi-matte finish. This liquid foundation applies easily and lasts all day for visibly brighter and radiant looking skin. Using our Flawless Finish Foundation not only restores uneven skin textures and tones, but most importantly, the SPF 15 protects your skin against harmful sun damage!
image
Well, I've been using this liquid foundation on and off months ago but lately it's becoming my favorite since I started applying it through the use of a wet sponge. I believe that I can evenly spread the liquid foundation when using a wet or damp sponge plus its moisture dilutes the foundation slightly thus making it easier to apply and creating a sheer finish. Isn't that awesome? For me, yes. Haha! :Pimage
One more thing I love about this is the packaging, I love that it's so sleek and made of glass. The pump applicator is indeed created very well, it helps you dispense little or right amount of foundation you needed, no waste issues. I do like it. ^_^
image
Here's the swatches~~~
It really gives a flawless finish. Adore. Adore. Adore. :)
image
What I love about this:
  • SPF 15
  • Budget Friendly
  • The packaging esp. the pump applicator
  • Blends easily and last longer
  • Medium to full coverage
  • Flawless finish
And what I hate about it:
  • It's a bit sticky >.<
  • The smell
  • limited shades to choose from
image
So overall I DO LIKE this foundation! Isn't obvious with the shouty capitals? Haha! But srsly you should try this one. ;) I'm willing to take those stuffs I hate about this product but I'll definitely buy another one after I consumed this. 

By the way I got this one from www.beautyjoint.com for only $7.75 and mind you that if you use my  special code FASHIONGAL you can get a 5% discount. Check out their shop for more make-up products! They offer Next-Day worldwide shipping. :)

MOI Cosmetics 88 Marble Palette

12/3/12

Hi, dolls! It's the time of the year na and we should make the most of 2012! As for me, I'm glad to have this MOI Cosmetics 88 Marble Palette from MOI Cosmetics PH with me to help me achieve that awesome eye make-up always. :) This actually is my first ever 88 Eye Shadow Palette and lucky me that the shades are so into my style because it is packed  of full 88 matte, shimmer and marble eye-shadows.
Take a look at it:
These are my everyday shades! Very me = Neutrals.
And here's some swatches of this palette. It's from the bottom row shades.
Personally, there's a lot to love on this palette. First is, it has a variety of shades that we'll all love. Secondly, I love how pigmented this eye-shadows are, most of these will only took you one swipe and the color is very much visible and ready to blend with the other. And as I have mentioned blending, it's the third thing I love about this product, it blends so nice with the others. 
CLOSER LOOK:
The swatches doesn't have primer at all but as you can see the colors are very vibrant though using a primer will add more vibrancy to the eye-shadows. I always use THIS eye primer and honestly they goes well together! And it's also good to know that this last longer than I thought. 
I highly recommend this marble palette to you, lovelies!

Where to find?

Review: Mineral Hygienics

11/23/12

Mineral Hygienics. It's been tested. It's been proven. A natural cosmetic that will trump anything you've ever used! Guaranteed! 
I stumble on their website a couple of months ago and I'm really interested on trying out their products. Then I was so damn lucky to have the chance of testing these products of Mineral Hygienics.

Their shop mission is to be the premier cosmetic manufacturer focusing on using natural products to promote health. They use natural ingredients to develop superior cosmetics that meet and exceed customer expectations we will not compromise on quality.
They sent me 3 shades of  Sheer Foundation which are in Light, Fairly Light and Medium Light and they include one finishing powder and a bronzer.  Plus a full coverage kabuki brush.
What to expect on their Sheer Foundation?
  • Super Lightweight
  • 100% Pure Minerals
  • Lasting SPF Protection
  • Water & Sweat Resistant
  • Fewest Amount of ingredients
  • Gives Skin Natural Luminosity
  • Specially Designed for Sensitive Skin
  • Won't settle into fine lines and wrinkles
  • Helps protect skin from Oxidative Stress
As I've said, along these sheer foundations are  a finishing powder and a bronzer.
I've got the finishing powder or the sheer perfection in Silk Translucent. These are the final step to a beautiful you. This will leave you with a perfectly airbrushed look. This absorbs excess oil from your skin.

And the mineral enhancer I've got is the Cool Kiss which is just good on fair to light complexions.It's a softer touch of sun and shimmer.

ENHANCER TIP:
  1. Recommended Brush: Deluxe Flat Top Buffer or Light Coverage Flawless Face
  2. Prepare the brush by swirling and setting the minerals just as you do for the foundation. Lightly dust or brush the minerals onto your face, cheeks, shoulders, or go all over the place for an all over sun-kissed look that wil bring your skin to a healthy glow.
And please be reminded of these benefits you can get from Mineral Hygienics.
Mineral Hygienics is the most natural cosmetic a woman can wear. They are loose powders formulated from crushed minerals extracted from the Earth with no fillers added.
  • Does not contain harmful chemical additives, harsh dyes, or man-made fragrances– thus limiting the risk for skin allergies
  • Completely free of irritants.
  • Non-organic, inert materials don’t allow mold or fungus to grow.
  • Ingredients adhere to the skin’s surface and are not absorbed.
  • Natural ingredients are recognized by our bodies.
  • Synergistic blends capable of replenishing, revitalizing, and protecting skin.
  • So gentle on the skin.
  • 100% chemical-free natural protection from the sun’s damaging rays.
This mineral hygienics  kabuki brush enables wonderful converage. It is firm, yet exceptionally soft. The round tapers float gently across your face to provide even, full coverage. This brush is a necessity for everyone, from the first-time user to the professional Makeup Artist. Now with a convenient handle for easier application. 
Here's the quick 'n easy application:
BLENDING TIPS:
  1. When first learning how to blend your minerals, the Light coverage flawless face brush may be preferred over the Kabuki brush. The flawless face brush will not release as many minerals as the Kabuki brush, making it easier to achieve a perfect blend.
  2. Use the kabuki brush when more coverage is preferred. The kabuki brush releases more minerals with fewer brush strokes to provide maximum coverage.
Here's the swatches:
Can you see the dividing line? Wherein the left part is without the foundation and the right part does have sheer foundation.
What I love in these products of Mineral Hygienics are they blend well in my skin, it's nice that they have 14 perfect shades for everyone to choose from and the shades that I've chosen are just right for me, it matches my skin tone just so well. I love how flawless my skin are after applying these foundation and it doesn't even give me that sticky feeling unlike the other foundation out there. And I like the effect of looking like I'm not wearing a makeup at all because its very lightweight though given that effect, it still gives me a long lasting coverage and in addition it lets my skin breathe.

Mineral Hygienics keeps your skin looking beautiful all day long... no need for constant touch-ups!

Have you tried  these products already? I would love to hear from you, dolls. 
Just leave a comment below. I'll appreciate it, big! :)
