     Here are some simple and easy-to-follow steps that will simplify your beauty routine while on your holidays, which also means you won’t have to pack anywhere near as many items.

Product Review: Maybelline Rosy Matte Lipstick- Photos and Swatches

Monday, July 18, 2016

     I agree that you can never have too many lipsticks especially if the shades are so gorgeous and you get compliments every time you wear them! I've been sporting different shades of matte lipsticks lately and most of them are nudes! It's time for nude lipsticks to shine but most of my friends are afraid to wear them. They told me that the shade washes them out. Either they look pale or sick. 

     If you're itching to sport nude lipstick but having second thoughts on what specific shade to get then fret not because Maybelline Rosy Matte Lipstick by Colorsensational is the answer. I received these matte nude colors in rosy flesh-tone pigments last month and surprisingly I get compliments every time I wear my favorite shades from the line. So without further ado, sharing with you below my photos, swatch and my thoughts on Maybelline Rosy Matte by Colorsensational Lipsticks in Natural Beige, Soft Pink, Rosy Peach, Apricot Beige, and Salmon Pink below :)

Maybelline Rosy Matte Lipstick

     When sultry, smoky eyes or luscious, long lashes are the main focus of a woman’s makeup, nude-hued lips were originally worn to downplay a beauty look. But today, nudes have evolved into becoming a style staple and statement perfect for that clean and sexy everyday look.

What I like:
  • The price- it's very affordable. Great for budget conscious individuals.
  • There's no funky or weird scent.
  • The packaging- it has an opaque packaging that comes in pretty metallic pink color.
  • It's easy to apply. Glides smoothly on my lips.
  • The texture is creamy and gives a full coverage after two swipes on my pigmented lips.
  • It's not drying on my lips but I still prefer to apply lip balm prior to application.
  • There are five vivid colors to choose from.
  • It's easily accessible.
  • The shades are wearable, perfect for everyday lip color and those who want to achieve the 'no make-up' makeup look.
  • The best part- did not wash me out in photos. I don't look pale nor sick.
  • Three out of five shades are true to the color of the lipstick inside the tube upon application. These shades are rosy peach, salmon pink, and natural beige. 

What I don't like:
  • The shades at the bottom of the bullet can be misleading to the true color of the lipstick.
  • The staying power is so-so as it fades after eating.
  • Two shades- salmon pink and soft pink look different on my pigmented lips. 

Will I repurchase? Yes! My favorite colors are natural beige and salmon pink. I always get a lot of compliments whenever I sport these shades :)

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. Yay to Maybelline Philippines for bringing this line here in our country. Now Filipinas can go nude and choose nude lipsticks that are budget friendly and wearable. I highly recommend Maybelline Rosy Matte Lipsticks to those who want to try nude lipsticks since this shade is in trend this year. Go ahead and swatch these five color at Maybelline counters nationwide and dare to go nude!

Have you tried these gorgeous nudes from Maybelline Rosy Matte Lipstick? What's your favorite shade?

Good Times!~

Maybelline White Superfresh #UltiMatteFaceOff Challenge + Giveaway!

Saturday, February 27, 2016

     Maybelline is my first brand of powder foundation. Raise your hands if you're a Maybelline girl :) No doubt that the brand trumps other drugstore brands in the market today because their products are very affordable and effective. Since it's already summer, the hunt for a powder foundation that can withstand heat and humidity is on! Maybelline has been known as one of the best brands that offers powder foundation for specific needs.

     I've tried more than five brands of face powders in the past and only a few made into my favorite list. Since we are living in a tropical country, a not-so-good face powder makes the face oily after an hour or two, tends to become cakey and patchy. I've seen beauty bloggers raving the new powder foundation of Maybelline called White Superfresh. I'm about to buy a compact to try it for myself but the Maybelline team invited me to take the #UltiMatteFaceOff challenge this week. Of course I've accepted it without second thoughts.

  • A no touch up powder foundation. 
  • It has a SPF 34 PA+++ 
  • It gives a matte and 12-hour long lasting coverage while being gentle on the skin. 
  • It has Clean Touch Technology enriched with Mineral Perlite that has 5x absorption power than regular talc powder. 
  • This powder foundation promises to keep away sweat and oil for 12 hours. 
  • Lesser or even zero chances of breakouts since pores are not clogged with sweat and oil giving you a super fresh, fair and matte skin.
  • Available in four shades: 02 Nude Beige, 03 Natural, 04 Honey, and 05 Sand Beige
  • Super affordable price: P299.00
     
     Maybelline team send over an exclusive #UltiMatteFaceOff kit for me to witness White Super Fresh Powder Foundation's claim to fame properties: No touch-up powder foundation that gives 12 hours fresh, fair, matte, and superfresh skin.

     The activity is very simple. I just have to spray water on the powder foundations and observe how foundation x, y, and z reacts to it. I also sprayed the same amount of water to Maybelline White Superfresh powder foundation and after a few second, the water being absorbed by the powder foundation thus keeping sweat and oil at bay!

     Maybelline White Superfresh Powder Foundation is really amazing. I was amazed after doing this little experiment and to make sure that it's really effective in achieving a matte face while keeping oil and sweat at bay, I've tested and used the product during my sister's wedding a few days ago and I was impressed with the results.

     Given the very affordable price, this powder foundation is perfect for everyday use. No need to scrimp on applying face powder and powder foundation to keep your skin white, fresh, and matte all day because of Maybelline White SuperFresh Powder Foundation. I didn't retouch the whole day considering that it was a garden wedding. No breakouts so far after I road-tested it for two days. I have a sensitive skin and it reacts immediately whenever I use a new makeup. Therefore, I highly recommend this powder foundation even if you're a student or has a tight budget for makeups. This product is worth every peso you'll spend:)

Product Review: Maybelline Makeup Remover- Eye and Lip

Wednesday, January 21, 2015

     Remember my post that I'm ranting on my broken camera? Now it's times two! My son accidentally kicked the laptop that I'm using and something happened to its hard drive. I don't know if my hubby can fix it or we'll just buy a new hard drive and try to save our precious photos from the broken one. But I'm still thankful that I can use the old desktop computer in our house and can access the internet from time to time.

     Anyhoo, I want to share my thoughts on my first makeup remover. I really don't use makeup remover because my skin care routine only includes facial wipes and soap for removing bb cream and lipstick and eyeliner but lately I'm fond of using mascara that's why I decided to buy makeup remover for my eye. I know that some mascara is a pain to remove and you'll ended up with panda eyes. Since I'm using a waterproof mascara, I need a semi heavy duty makeup remover for my eyes that facial wipes and soap can't take off. Click CONTINUE READING to read more.
