What's in my Kikay Kit

     Hi dearies! How's everyone lately? It's been raining all day and night. I hope and I pray for our safety. Even though I'm rarely watching news about current events, I still feel there are families who suffers from the calamities bought by these typhoons and heavy rains. 
     Anyhoo, I noticed that I haven't posted anything about my recent makeup stash. The last one I think was the Eye Makeup Essential post. To tell you honestly, I rarely wear makeup these days. I feel more comfortable with my skin now and I think I really need to feel comfortable with it. Makeup only enhances my features and I don't want to wear makeup just because I want to hide my flaws. But there were times that I cannot control my breakouts. It's really hormonal and our humid weather also adds a factor to it. So when my skin is acting up, I feel uncomfortable with it. I feel the need to add a heavy duty concealer for pimple marks and a full coverage bb cream. I mentioned before that I'm a late bloomer when it comes to makeup and it really shows with my makeup stash. From the time that I started lurking in forums and here in blogosphere to read and compare reviews, these were the only thing that I purchased and accumulated. Most of the products here are my HG. 
     I only have one makeup/ kikay kit :D I don't bring this with me when I'm going to attend events or outside the house for some errands. This always sits in my closet and I'll just bring two things with me (lip balm and lip cream) and place it inside my bag.

Silver Pouch from Watson's

1. Unbranded retractable kabuki brush from Landmark

2. Majolica Majorca jeweling eye pencil- used once

3. Fanny Serrano eyelash curler

4. San San gel eyeliner in brown

5. Garnier Light BB Undereye Roll-On

6. Marrionaud eyeliner brush

7. Benefit The Porefessional pore minimizing primer- used once

8. L'Oreal BB max bb cream- used thrice

9. Covergirl Lashblast Fusion mascara

10. Majolica Majorca Skin Remaker Pore Cover powder foundation

11. Skinfood Rose Cheek Chalk- blush depends on my mood

12. E.L.F. Eyebrow Kit in Light

     My makeup must haves: BB cream and/or Powder Foundation+ Undereye concealer+Eyeliner+eyebrow powder+ mascara and I'm good to go. If I feel like I want to glam up my face, I'll add the blush and the jeweling eyeliner. For the lips, I just swipe some lip balm: Carmex, EOS or Human Heart Nature and/or my favorite N.Y.X Addis Ababa soft matte lip cream for a touch of color.

     Basically that's it loves. So what's inside your makeup kit? Share it away guys :D

  Good Times!~

For the Love of Benefit+ Skinfood Rose Cheek Chalk

    

     Hi lovelies! As much as I wanted to make a review on new stuffs that I bought last month, my camera is acting up again! phew~ I can't take pictures clearly so I decided to use my phone and make a quick post on what I won in a birthday blog sale. These makeups are actually lemmings and I'm happy even though it's not brand new, I can test and try it and see why some girls go gaga over it.

     I always budget the money I get from my husband that's why I consider some makeups high end and one of them is Benefit. So when I saw that there's an ongoing birthday blog sale, I took the advantage of joining and luckily I won. These are the stuffs included in the loot:

Benefit Cha Cha Tint and Skinfood Rose Cheek Chalk

     I'm happy that my makeup stash is getting bigger and bigger. Does it mean I'm a makeup addict now? I think I'm not because I'm just starting to appreciate makeup unlike before. I'm still trying to learn how to put cheek tint and cream blush because I always end up looking like a clown or hit by Pacquiao. Kidding aside, but I'm telling you the truth that I really need to watch you tube videos for tutorials and practice every day. 

    I hope I can share with you nice photos of me wearing Benefit Cha Cha tint and Skinfood Rose Cheek Chalk. 

    What's your Benefit lip and cheek tint favorites? I would love to hear your suggestions on how to apply cheek tint for that natural and healthy glow. Thanks for sharing!

Good Times!~
