SM World of Beauty

     I was in high school, I often hear my mom talking to my titas who live abroad about makeup brands that are not available locally. Two of my aunts work at Macy's that's why if there's a new shade of lipstick from my mom's favorite brand, she will just tell it to them but it will take a year before the balikbayan boxes will arrive at our doorsteps.

     To cut a long story short, it's hard to buy makeup from brands that are exclusively available abroad but now, hoarding buying is a breeze because all the coveted brands from different parts of the world are exclusively available at SM World of Beauty! Let me share with you some of my fave brands from around the world below :)

Product Review: Shawill Eyeliner Pencil in White 006

     If there's one thing I envy with Korean Actresses and K-Pop stars, it's all about their eye makeup. I'm fond of looking their cute faces with their winged eyeliners, glittery eyes and sparkling tear liners. I love how these eye makeups make their eyes so gorgeous, big and bright. I also want to make my peepers look like them but I know it will be very hard for me since my makeup stash is small. I need to save money to buy those eye makeups and my last resort is an eyeliner for my water lines. I opt to buy this because I read in one blog that white, silver and grey eyeliner can also make the eye bigger and brighter if used in the water lines.

     But the search for my very first eyeliner in white gave me feeling of dismay. I will just make a short review on this eyeliner pencil.

Shawill Eyeliner Pencil in White 006

Swatched more than 5 times to show the color

What I like:

• Cute packaging- there are crystals around the case for that feminine touch.
• I consider this cheap since it costs below 100 pesos.
• Two products in one- there's an eyebrow brush on the other end of the eyeliner.

What I don't like:

• The color payoff is poor- I need to swatch it 5 times for the color to pop.
• Has zero lasting power.
• It smudges on lash line.
• It hurts to apply on waterline, it irritates my eyes.

Will I repurchase? No

Recommendation:

     I give this a 2/5 rating. What more to say? It's cheap so I guess you get your money's worth.

 I think I'm on the hunt again for a good but affordable eyeliner in white, silver or beige. 

     Can you recommend a good eyeliner that's creamy and glides easily?I highly appreciate your recommendations. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Good Times!~

Haul: Bath Essentials plus Makeup Stuff

     Another haul after visiting Asian Eye Institute at TriNoma. It's crazy that all sales are everywhere! TriNoma is also having a sale of up to 70% till the end of the month. I want to congratulate my self for not spending too much yesterday. Mall sales can be tempting for a cheapskate like me and I have to stop myself from buying because I'm saving for something expensive.

   Anyhoo, I bought 3 soaps from All Organics, a white eyeliner, a body scrub and a substitute for my facial wipes which is OOS again. My favorite facial wipes is Neutrogena. Since I ran out of my wipes, I have to purchase Nivea instead.

L-R: All Organics Calamansi Soap, Papaya with Glutathione Soap, A Bonne' Spa White C Salt,

Shawill Eyeliner and Nivea Visage Cleansing Wipes

     I will be reviewing A Bonne' Spa White C Salt Scrub on my next post. This is my HG body scrub and been using it for more than a year now. I will also share my thoughts on Nivea facial wipes and Shawill eyeliner. I need to practice lining my waterlines before making a review on Shawill eyeliner.

     What's your latest haul?Happy Wednesday everyone!

Good Times!~
