Inspired by last week's Fan Mail Fridays: My Recommended Foundations Under P1,000, Molly, one of my readers, asked about my recommended foundations over P1,000. This is just a late post, I intend it to be a round up of my favorite foundation finds from the previous years until 2016. 2017 henceforth, I shall be doing a yearly round up of my favorite foundation finds. :)
Hey Martha!
