2013 Make Up Kit

It's been a long time since I shared with you guys my make up kit- it's because I always try new make up until I find the right one for my skin type and color. Now, I've so much make up- I'd usually think that I've found the perfect powder for me, but when I get another product, I'm completely confused again. So here's my new make up collection this 2013:

 Mac's Sheen Supreme lipstick- Zen Rose and Pro Long Wear lipcreme- Endless Drama

I want to be more experimental this year by wearing colorful lipsticks. These colors were amazing when I tried them on and I can't wait to use them for my outfit shots. Mac lipsticks are my favorite because they really last for a long time. 

Mac's All for Glamour touch up kit and Fabulousness/ 5 Neutral Eyes eyeshadow

Have you seen the blurry cute compacts that I used above? Those were the exteriors of these powder/ eyeshadow compacts. Packaging isn't about everything, I know- but it won't hurt if you're make up items are too irresistible to not purchase. Plus, the colors of the eyeshadow fit my morena skin perfectly. It's like all the important palettes in one compact. Very useful indeed.

Lancome sensitive eyes instant cleanser, mascara volume and eye liner

You don't know how long I've been looking for an eye make up remover that can actually make my eyes look clean with just one wash. I love the fact that this Lancome eye cleanser is very effective and it comes in a small bottle too, so I can bring it anywhere with me. Well, all three of the are travel size so bongga!!!

Majolica Majora powder finish: I always bring this with me. Everywhere. This should be your best friend- it's so small so you can bring it with you and it will keep your face oil-free and fresh all day.

Shu Uemura eyelash curler: The only eyelash curler I use. I think it's best for asian eyes.

Benefit's Bathina: I don't think I even have to talk about this one. Seriously, all my friends have it too. It's a body balm that will make your skin glow so you can be radiant all day.

 Bobbie Brown's Black Chocolate eyeshadow and brightening finishing powder "Porcelain Pearl"

I don't think of this compact as just a brightening powder, it can also be used in your eyes. I love rainbow colored palettes. I can't do it myself but it will be very useful when I have important events and shoots.

Estee Lauder's "Cheating Heart" lipstick, night repair + hydrationist serum and night repair for the eyes

After all the make up you put during the day, relax your face with these Estee Lauder products. It will help rejuvenate your skin. BMS.

Beauty Must Haves

Online beauty subscription is a rather new concept in the Philippines, so I introduce to you Glamourbox- it's a new way of discovering beauty products that allows people to try a product before buying the full size. Glamourbox is a premium online beauty subscription that works with premium and good quality brands. Every month, they send their subscribers at least 5 deluxe beauty samples (sometimes they include full sizes too). Monthy subscription fee is only P595 a month and the value of the box I got was P2,500. Talk about getting so much more than what you paid for! 

Look at these items!!! I really got excited to open and try each and every item inside. By the way, subscribers don't know the contents of the box so it's like getting a monthly surprise delivered to their doorstep! I love surprises, and the best thing about Glamourbox is you'll be getting premium items for sure! They will also launch an online shop where the full-size products are available for purchase. SUBSCRIBE NOW!

Instead of my usual pink and red lipstick shades, I chose to buy these: Mac lipsticks (L-R) Up The Amp, On Hold cremesheen and Faux. Also, I got "All That Glitter" and "Sketch Velvet" eye shadows to make my eyes look sparkling. 

 These Nyx soft matte lip creams are a new kind of pout paint that makes your lips silky smooth and sets it to a matte finish.

Bobbi Brown eye pencil and cream shadow. It definitely adds that smoky effect and makes my eyes look bigger. On the other hand, this Shiseido compact is perfect for morenas like me. It gives that shimmery effect on my cheeks. It's a blush and highlighter that blend shades together to create that elegant look.

 Good-bye Blackhead!!! This Ciracle product helps you remove blackheads, whiteheads, sebum and dirt- especially in the presence of blocked pores. It contains natural plant extract so your skin will look and smooth in 15 minutes.

Ciracle Hydrating Facial Mask- it's a vibrant, soft and smooth skin mask that hydrates your face for intensified moisture at home. I'm really getting addicted to facial products now.

(PS: they’re having an ongoing online contest on their Facebook fan page. Check it HERE)

Ciracle Vitamin E5 Cream- it soothes your skin and protects it from external environmental factors like pollution, oxidation and damaging UV rays. It also contains Vitamin E to keep your look fresh, moisturized and healthy all day.

Ciracle Vitamin Source C-20- it contains a pure and high-quality form of Vitamin C and powerful antioxidant that improves the color and texture of your skin and helps repair essential skin function for increased tone and firmness. 

All these are definitely worth sharing to you guys. BMS.

My challenge: wear old clothes from head to toe. Everything in my outfit post today, I've already worn (at one point) in some of my blog posts before. You can always wear a piece of clothing again, just make sure it's in a totally different look. 

 I've been trying so hard to look for a lipstick brand that when you use it, the colors stays for a long time and it doesn't come off easily- and voila! I've found it! Now, my new addiction is collecting Nyx lipsticks.

 From lipsticks to matte lip creams, they're the best! I combined these two- Addis Ababa and Amsterdam to achieve that bright neon-y pink-red lips. I don't even know why I've only found out about Nyx now. Seriously, they're so great. And what's best about it is it's only P280.00!

I'm really happy I found Digital Traincase through Multiply. They have the cheapest set of make up prices. I love online shopping! And I love Multiply's new marketplace. BMS.
