MAKEUP CHALLENGE DAY: 3

30 DAY MAKEUP CHALLENGE DAY 3: FAVORITE BRAND

Hello Guys!! Third day! WOOHHHOOO!!!

I drank a cup of coffee + milo so I feel extra charged tonight!! I hope my brain is working well.

When I read today's challenge, I really cannot think of any favorite makeup brand( Im assuming it means makeup brand since it makeup challenge.. duuh) because honestly, the number thing that comes to my mind before buying a product is how much it costs. If something is more than 1000 pesos, I really have to think it twice or thrice before purchasing it.Another thing I think about is whether I'd be able to use that product for a long time and I don't have to keep repurchasing it. Products like mascaras and eyeliners (except gel liners), I tend to buy cheaper ones because I have this tendency to have sore eyes or sty at least twice or thrice a year ( dont know why!!!)  so I have change them every 3 to 4 months.

So back to the challenge, I mentally wnet through all my makeup and I realized that most of my makeup are either from WetnWild and Avon. I have to narrow it down to only one. So, I thought of  of reasons why I buy from those brands.

So..after thinking.......WetnWild it is! I realized that I really look for this brand everytime I shop  for makeup. Of course, the price is an important factor but I buy their products because I know that it is good and the price I am paying for is so worth it. They are crazy cheap especially if you buy online.  Their eyeshadows are pigmented and there color range is good. They have shimmery, metallic and matte eyeshadows. I love their lipliner, lipsticks and tinted moisturizer as well.I find that most of the products that I tried from them are really good. 

With Avon, it is sad to say that  I mostly buy their product mainly because they're cheap and I dont have to pay cash for it. But unfortunately, I really hope that they can amp up there products a little bit. I do like some of their lispticks but I hate their moiture rich lipsticks because they melt and it super creamy in a BAD way. Also, the color range of their foundation cannot cater to most Pinays and I just dont think it is woth shelling out 400-500 pesos for a foundation that wont match your skin. 

These are some of their products that I use a lot lately. 

So I would like to end this post with a picture of my babies!! They are sleeping outside my room.... :)

PS: I buy my Wetnwild products from a Auction Shop in Facebook. I bought my I love matte palette for 100pesos. The color blue was slightly damaged but it was alright. It was sealed and I read the expiration date. It was in 2014. I have been using it and so far, I have had no reactions. :)

FS BB CREAM REVIEW AND DEMO

I was on the hunt for a foundation two weeks ago. I went to our local SM City Department store and headed straight to the  makeup section. I was contemplating whether to get the Ever Bilena BB cream or the Ever Bilena foundation but I passed by the Fanny Serrano Makeup counter and I saw their FS BB Cream. I swatched the product on my hand and it looked promising. I have tried it and I really love using it on a daily basis. So here is the summary of my product review.

This is what it says in on the label:

An all in one cosmetic breakthrough that has the properties of a  Foundation, to give your face a seamless coverage, Concealer to flawlessly cover all of your blemishes, Moisturizer to to protect your skin from dryness, and UV Protection to protect your face from the harmful rays of the sun.

What I like about it:

~~ affordable (costs P299 )

~~ available in almost all SM Department Stores 

~~easy to apply (warm the product with your fingers first for better results)

~~ gives light to medium coverage without being caky

~~ correct and conceal uneven skin tone

~~ has a fresh citrus-y smell that is not overwhelming

~~ very moisturizing

~~ lasts up to 4 hours ( normal to dry skin)

What I dont like:

~~ gives a dewy finish so setting powder is a must

~~Can get oily

~~ for those with oily skin, I recommend using a primer or a good setting powder when using the product

~~ comes in 2 colors (Mestiza and Oriental)

I think if I use it everyday , I'd be able to use all the product inside the tube in 1 to 2 months. 

All in all, this is a great product for everyday use. I will definitely repurchase this once I ran out.
