Product Review: Essence Fix and Matte Translucent Loose Powder

Sunday, February 23, 2014

     Happy Sunday dearies! I'm back with another review and this time let me share with you my favorite finishing powder as of the moment. As you all know I'm a late bloomer when it comes to makeup and this is my first time using a loose powder to seal the bb cream or liquid foundation on my face. Before I met this baby, I was using Majolica Majorca Skin Remaker Pore Cover as my finishing powder. I never thought that translucent loose powder acts more than a powder foundation. When I saw this brand from my fellow beauty bloggers, I asked them if a tub is worth the hype. Aya, one of my closest blogger friend said yes and without second thoughts I gave in. 

     I visited essence counter at Sm Fairview and grab myself a tub of this. The tub contains 15.5g of goodness that I'm still using up now. If my memory serves me right it's been a year since I bough this product. There's so many positive reviews about Essence Fix and Matte Translucent Loose Powder here and abroad so If you're a makeup addict, I'm sure you've stumble upon them. Enough of the blabber, here's the review of one of the most coveted translucent loose powder among beauty bloggers worldwide. Click CONTINUE READING and find out why I gave this a 5/5 rating :)

Product Review: Essence All About Curl + Volume Mascara

Sunday, January 05, 2014

     Hello there! Here's another review of the product that I won last year from Essence's Facebook like and share promo. It's my 4th mascara to date. If you're a long time reader of this blog I'm sure you've seen my sparse, thin and not-so existent lashes. But this dilemma came to an end when I applied Sophia Eyelash Enhancer religiously and saw my lashes became fuller and longer. Since I only used the product for two months, the growth of my lashes became stagnant. I'm not disappointed or sad since this effects was disclose so I'm expecting really expecting that but lo and behold my lashes are still longer than the original length and based on the photos below I can say that there's still a bit of thickness on the strands.

     So going back to my review, this product aims to provide curl and volume at the same time hence the name curl + volume mascara. I have high hopes on this mascara because the first product that I've tried from the same brand showed good results. I already made a review of the Essence Eyeliner here. But as I use the product, I noticed that my hopes are falling. I didn't expect it to fail on the claim of curl and volume. Wanna know if the product is a yay or a nay?

Product Review: Essence Stays No Matter What 24h Waterproof Eyeliner Pen

Sunday, December 15, 2013

     Hello, Happy Sunday to all! I'm back with another review. I miss sharing product reviews and I know I owe you a lot. So for today, I'll be sharing a review of another eyeliner that was sent to me by Essence Philippines months ago. It's actually my prize from their Facebook fan page contest. I was very lucky that day because I'm the last sharer of the contest photo then I was tagged by my sister that I won two products from them Essence Stays No Matter What 24h Waterproof Eyeliner Pen and Essence All About Curl Mascara that I'll be reviewing on my next post. 

     If you're a long time reader of this blog, I've shared my love-hate relationship with eyeliner pens. The first eyeliner pen that I've tried was ELF and that eyeliner pen gave me a very horrible experience. If you want to read my review click HERE. Another eyeliner pen was from a local brand and I'm happy that it gave me positive results. So now here's another eyeliner pen that I think was one of the best that I've tried so far. I have a not so oily lids that's why I don't use eye primer when applying this eyeliner. If you want to know my thoughts about this product click CONTINUE READING to find out!

     Hello dearies! Do you love joining giveaways? If the answer is YES, well me too! If you're a long time reader of this blog I'm sure you know that I always win from giveaways that I join. I can say that I'm a giveaway/contest addict. I've been joining mini and huge giveaways for the past three years and luckily I always grab either the grand or consolation prizes. I mentioned that I love joining giveaways but there came a time that I just lost my interest in joining any kind of contests and giveaways on blogs that I follow, Facebook and Twitter. If my memory serves me right it's been six month that I rarely or never joined any of them. But two months ago I simply missed logging my entries on the rafflecopter, sharing contest banners and re-tweeting hashtags thus I became active again in this addictive world of online contests, promos and giveaways.

     So to inspire my readers that reading blog posts is not only informative but lots of fun too because of prizes, here's the photos of products that I got as prizes from the giveaways and contests that I joined recently. I'll post the links where I joined and if you have time you can read my past winnings too. Click CONTINUE READING to see these wonderful prizes :)
