Review: Clinique Airbrush Concealer

I am a fan of Lisa Eldridge (i subscribed to her youtube channel and website www.lisaeldrige.com) and one of the products frequently featured is Clinique's Airbrush Concealer. Hence, when i was looking for an under eye concealer i was choosing between this and MAC's Studio Finish Concealer. And i guess i don't need to say which one i have gotten. ;)

Clinique Airbrush Concealer is PHP1,150.00 at Rustan's and Clinique boutiques. Note that we only got shade 03-Light here in the Philippines.

Review: Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara

I got my tube of Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara as one of the three freebies i got from BeautyBar when i purchased my Smashbox primer (light) and eyeshadow palette (Adore - LE palette) as mentioned here. ^_^

Review: MAC 'Illustrated' Pink Lip Bag and All Over Brush Kit byRebecca Moses (Limited Edition)

The MAC 'Illustrated' Collection bug has hit me -- hard! After getting the Plum Face Kit, i kept thinking of where to store this little, pristine, white, illustrated box and the only answer i came up with is the Pink Lip Bag under the same collection. Also comes to mind is if I'm going to use these kits, i also need travel friendly brushes. Hence, I also picked the All Over Brush Kit! :)

The lip bag cost Php 3,060.00 while the brush set cost Php 3,800.00 at our local MAC boutiques.

Review: Benefit Eye Bright

I was lacking some sleep this past few days and it is starting to show on my eyes. And here I was thinking about how to deal with my tired eyes when i saw Benefit's post on Facebook about Eye Bright. Being the impulsive consumer that i am, i got one when i went to Benefit. This cost Php1,100 at Benefit's boutique at Rustan's Glorietta 3.

Review: Benefit Hoola

As mentioned before, im trying to complete my makeup arsenal by finding the perfect highlighter and bronzer for contouring. And guess what! I've finally found them! Double yey!! ^_^ For highlighter, that is theBalm's Mary-Lou Manizer which i already reviewed. And for my bronzer/contour shade, that is Benefit's Hoola (Hoola is available at Benefit boutique at Rustan's Glorietta 3 for Php1,100).

Review: Max Factor Clump Defy Mascara

I've previously reviewed/shown here on my blog how Fairydrops Platinum Mascara (WT) wears on me and how I didn't see the dramatic results others have raved about. And now, here are my thoughts on a mascara i use whenever i want natural looking lashes with an added omph! -- Max Factor's Clump Defy Mascara (in brown-black).

Review: theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer

I'm so happy and satisfied with all my purchases these past few months especially my MAC 'Illustrated' Face Kit which i also reviewed here on my blog. However I realized that I do NOT have a good highlighter (nor bronzer) -- essential when you want to contour your face. ^_^

After reading a number of reviews, I decided to get theBalm's Mary-Lou Manizer (aka 'the luminizer') since they said it's almost as good as Guerlain's Meteorites without the expensive price tag.

Here is the box it comes with. theBalm products always have quirky designs. :)

Review: MAC 'Illustrated' Face Kit by Rebecca Moses | Plum (LimitedEdition)

The moment i saw MAC's Illustrated Collection by Rebecca Moses, i immediately wanted to get the plum face kit! But since it cost so much here in the Philippines (PHP 3,800 = USD 85.70), i tried(!) to convince myself that i don't need this palette. However, after a week of psyching myself out (mentally listing the makeups in my collection and thus giving myself reasons NOT to buy), my EQ finally gave in to that persistent voice to get this pretty box of goodies!!! Happy me!!! ^_^ (i was all smiles at the store!)
