Benefit Stay Don't Stray Eyeshadow and Concealer Primer

Here's a review on Benefit Stay Don't Stray Concealer and Eyeshadow Primer

PRICE: P1,400.00

PLACE BOUGHT: Free

OTHER LOCATIONS: Benefit, Greenbelt 5, Makati City

THE VERDICT:

Face Primers are very essential to me because I have combination skin, and it gets extra oily if the weather is very humid. A face primer not only benefits gals with oily skin, but also benefits gals with any skin type because it keeps makeup from going astray, and it makes colors appear more vibrant and truer.

I've been a witness to the powers of a face primer, especially an eye primer. An eye primer is one of my staples because it tames my oily lids, and makes eyeshadows last all day on me. I don't wear eyeshadows on a daily basis, but I find them very handy in giving my look that extra 'oomph' during events and special occasions. Since eyeshadows can't keep up with me, I rely on an eye primer to make them do so.

Speaking of eye primers, here's one from Benefit. Stay Don't Stray is a 360- degree eye primer that keeps your eyeshadows and concealers from going astray. It's best for gals with oily lids because it's formulated sans oil ingredients.

THE VERDICT:

There are a lot of hidden gems in department store brands that are waiting to be discovered, and In2It’s Brow Powder is one of them. I’ve been hearing and reading a lot of good stuff about this brow trio, so I picked it up during Robinsons’ Beauty Bound event. Indeed, this baby deserves your bucks!

Kanebo Animation at SM Megamall

Are you a fan of Japanese makeup brands? I am, but I only like three: Shu Uemura, Shiseido, and Majolica Majorca. I think Japanese brands have great quality, and that justifies their price.

Speaking of Japanese makeups, I was recently invited to Kanebo's Bloggers Animation. I've been hearing a lot about Kanebo, but haven't gotten around to trying it out. It's the sister company and more affordable counterpart of Lunasol.

An 'animation' is a pretty cool and modern term for a 'makeover'. I did my own makeup, and I spent hours deciding what eyeshadow colors to wear! I didn't get a makeover because I didn't want my efforts to go to waste. LOL! I just documented the whole event, so check it out. :)

Good Job Tupperware: Colour Collection Triple Effect Mascara+YOUTUBE VIDEO

Here's a review on Colour Collection Triple Effect Mascara

PRICE: Around P300.00+

PLACE BOUGHT: Free

FREE: Please refer to Tupperware PH on Facebook

THE VERDICT:

I blindly picked this up in one of my events with Tupperware. You probably know that I'm a mascara snob, and I only buy mascaras from my tried and tested brands. Had I known before how great this mascara is, I would've bagged the other tubes on display!

The formula has a mousse- like texture. The star of this mascara is this specially designed want that's meant to curl, lengthen, and volumize lashes. As you can see, it has two sides: the left side has bigger and widely- spaced bristles, while the right side has smaller and compact bristles. I also find that the mascara wand requires a technique for you to be able to utilize it completely. It's a personal technique, and I christened it "THE WALTZING TECHNIQUES A and B".
