Happy New Year!

Before I get into this I just want to greet you readers out there a very happy new year. May God bless us with many opportunities and good luck this 2017, and continue to protect us from all evil and danger.




Hey guys!

This is my first post for the year 2017! I'm very excited to share with you guys the eyebrow pencils that I got over the past months that I've been trying out to see what's best and what's not for me in particular, but also I wanted to inform you guys of the cons and pros that I've found on each one.




I've posted about this eyebrow pencil that I got last year. This is the Ever Bilena Advance Perfect Eyebrow in the shade of dark brown, this only cost me PHP 60 (about $1.22) which is relatively cheap.

PROS:

• It's affordable
• It's very pigmented
• It has that little brush on its cap
• The pencil is long

• If you're not used to it, it can be hard to control since it's very pigmented. You can accidentally do your eyebrow thicker than the other.

• It's affordable
• It's two in one (pencil on one end and brush on the other)

• The pencil breaks easily
• You really have to dig in there for the color to show on your skin
• I got the shade brown but for some reason the color looks more of a light brown (should've bought the dark brown one)
• The cap easily detaches (I lost both of them on the first day but luckily I've found them inside my bag)

This one I really like, it's the Fashion Brow Duo Shaper from Maybelline that I got in October 2016 for only PHP 199 (about $4.12) because it was on sale, nowadays it is available for PHP 250 (about $5.03) on any store where makeup is available. I got mine in the shade brown.

I had written a quick review about this back in October, it was my first post, there you could see pictures of this brow shaper still in one piece (like its pencil) because unfortunately I am not able to take a picture of the pencil anymore.

PROS:

• It's a duo shaper, it has a pencil on one side and a powder on the other side.
• It's portable and doesn't take up too much space in your makeup bag
• The pencil has a thin tip
• The powder comes in a sponge applicator
• It's easy to use

• The pencil breaks easily
• For students who are on a budget it's a little bit pricey

• It's affordable
• It's pigmented
• It's easy to use
• Portable as well (doesn't take up too much space)

• Unfortunately for me the length of it is on the shorter side

Hey guys!

About a week ago I went to the nearest store to go buy some materials that I needed for school when I walked past Watson and saw that they had this table lined up at the front of their store with this sign that says "For Sale". Being the curious person that I am and the love I have for Watson I immediately went to it and saw a bunch of makeup products being sold at a cost of at least PHP 300 (about $6) and below.




I was on budget since I only went to the store just to get materials but I managed to buy two makeup products that I was running out of and another two eyeshadow palettes. Most of the products that I bought are from Ever Bilena and the total money that I spent was only PHP 410 (about $ 8.23).






This is also from Ever Bilena Perfect Eye Concealer that I got for PHP 100 (about $2).

Regarding its shade I don't know if they have any other one's because that was the only thing that I saw, but since it's a concealer I believe it comes with other shades as well so we'll see about that.

I took a swatch of the concealer on my wrist and as you can see it doesn't look like my shade but when I blended it, It blended perfectly with my skin and also it had a sort of a creamy texture to it.

The only thing that I am worried about is how they feel "sticky" on my face, maybe it's because I haven't put any foundation on before trying it on or maybe because I haven't set it with a powder. Or maybe it's because it's creamy? I don't know but either way I won't be buying this concealer again, it doesn't suit my skin.





This eyeshadow palette on the other hand is from Ever Bilena again that I got for PHP 150 (about $3). They had a lot of variations but I chose this palette with colors that are neutral brown, black, and white to keep it simple.

This palette is not that big nor small, a perfect size to bring with you everywhere you go if you want to touch up your makeup. Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hey guys!

Today I went to the store in search for affordable makeup products that is substantially essential with our daily lives, a pocket-friendly price that students such as myself could afford, or products that you could easily buy (without having to worry about spending too much) and easily replace when you run out of it.






So the products that I had bought are the following:

•Primer
•Eyebrow Pencil
•Face Powder
•Beauty Blender

I was able to find these products at Watsons. Thank God they had it otherwise it would've been difficult for me to find products like these.
