Esprique Precious

Dress On Glossy Rouge


Let me share to you my personal review on the Esprique Precious Dress On Glossy Rouge in PK 881. This is a peach / coral tint lip gloss. This is inclulded in my August 2013 Giveaway. ;)


A liquid rouge compound with Plump up Paste to create a plump coating over the lips; giving a glossy silky finish without vertical creases even when applied sparingly.



I love how it has tiny sparkles that are just perfect to have that awesome glow. Not too glittery for an everyday look. Smooth Light Oil works to allow for a smooth application and a light wear.


I also love how the packaging was designed. On it's lid are like little diamonds embedded on the case.


Adopted a dual end applicator tip; a spatula side for solid application and a flocky tip side for defining contours.




Here's a lip swatch for you. I wore nothing before applying it on my lips. These are samples of bare Lip Gloss.

 

VERDICT

PROS:
  • Smooth to apply
  • Doesn't have any weird smell. Fragrance Free.
  • It applies really well.
  • Thick consistency unlike some glosses that I've tried.. they're just too oily. But not this one.
  • The two sided tip gives option of a solid application or soft contours.
  • The sparkles are bearable. 
  • Lasts long.
  • Gives your lip a laminated look.
CONS:
  • If you apply too much, it can get too tacky. So just appy just "enough".

Exclusive BDJ Box
Shiseido Skin Care Special
August 2013

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

And finally it has arrived! After days of waiting it's finally here on my mailbox! As predicted, this month's box is all about skin care. What I didn't expect was it to be an exclusive box!

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

This month they featured SHISEIDO's IBUKI Skin Care line.


Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

So what's inside our skin care box?

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

Yep! Full of sample sized skin care products from Shiseido.

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

Personally I haven't tried Shiseido yet, so I have no idea how they will work with my skin which is "oily and sensitive". Another reason for this is that Shiseido is quite expensive.

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

SO, thank you BDJ Box for allowing me to try them out even at a sample size. Well, Shiseido items will cost you more that Php 1k per item. So I'm really curious on the value of this box. Is it worth it?

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

But before that, let's check out the contents.

Unboxing: Shiseido BDJ Box August 2013 | Beauty Box

What's Inside?

Shiseido's IBUKI range was designed with exclusive Shape Memorizing cell Technology. It's 3-part action of clearing our dead skin cells, stimulating the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor and building back the inner skin membrane, returns cells to their ideal condition and slows down future shrinkage, to boost skin's resistance. The result is smooth, beautiful skin that glows with radiance and freshness.

What's Inside?  Shiseido's IBUKI


1. Shiseido IBUKI Gentle Cleanser 30ml - Full Size 125ml | Php 1,495
For skin feeling refreshed and silky smooth to the touch, use this extra gentle cleanser everyday. It lathers quickly into a rich foam and effectively cleans your skin while maintaining its ideal moisture balance.

2. Shiseido IBUKI Softening Concentrate 15ml - Full Size 75ml | Php 1,600
A purifying cleanser that contains micro-granules for a gentle exfoliating effect, removing harmful excess sebum and impurities without stripping away skin's essential moisture. Best used ONCE A WEEK.

3. Shiseido IBUKI Purifying Cleanser 5ml - Full Size 125ml | Php 1,495
A concentrate softener that penetrates quickly and deeply to build the skin's resistance by filling it with moisture. Prep your skin with this before applying moisturizer to reap the full benefits and get glowing skin.

4. Shiseido IBUKI Eye Correcting Cream 2ml - Full Size 15ml | Php 1,800
This coold, comforting eye cream diminishes the appearance of dark circles, puffiness and fine lines. Gently pat under your eyes and see them become more vibrant.

5. Shiseido IBUKI Refining Moisturizer Enriched 10ml - Full Size 75ml | Php 1,950
This is a multi-functional moisturizer that improves visible pores, breakouts and skin roughness caused by dryness, resulting in a smoother and more refined skin texture. Best used AT NIGHT.

6. Shiseido Bio Performance Advanced Super Revitalizer Cream 7ml - Full Size 50ml | Php 5,500
A luxurious (I bet), highly concentrated skin supplement lines, roughness, dryness, and other signs of premature aging while energizing and rehydrating skin

7. Vouchers (FREE)
Three awesome treat from Shiseido a.) Free Quick Facial b.) Php 500 Off c.) Free Shiseido Ibuki Gentle Cleanser or Purifying Cleanser

What's Inside?  Shiseido's IBUKI

VERDICT


Overall it was an awesome package given that all items were "EXPENSIVE" given that nothing has a full size that costs less than Php 1,000. But compared to BDJ's previous boxes, in this box, NONE was given in FULL SIZE. It's a bit dissapointing. But well, we can always check if this box is worth it (value wise).

(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Gentle Cleanser 30ml | Php 358.80
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Softening Concentrate 15ml | Php 320
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Purifying Cleanser 5ml | Php 59.80
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Eye Correcting Cream 2ml | Php 240
(Sample) Shiseido IBUKI Refining Moisturizer Enriched 10ml | Php 260
(Sample) Shiseido Bio Performance Advanced Super Revitalizer Cream 7ml | Php 770

Total Items Cost
Samples + Vouchers = Php 2,008.6

BDJ Box Cost
Php 580

TOTAL SAVINGS = Php 1,428.6

The box really has quality items in it. Though everything was given as SAMPLES. A little frustrating. I hope they will last long enough! Because, these items are really expensive. Hoping for a better September Box. As I've said in my other unboxing blogs, I'm not really a "skin-care" fan.

So what do you think?

Colour Collection Whitening BB Cream SPF 30 - Sample Room | Review

Sample Room
Colour Collection Whitening BB Cream
Review


Another one from Sample Room and yes, it's another BB Cream. :) I don't have the VIP membership by Sample Room so I am very choosy on what to get. And I often get the items that I would really love to try. And there goes another BB Cream.




Lately, I am in the experimental stage on BB creams that I just want to try every single one of them to find what's best for me. So here, let me introduce to you Colour Collection's BB Cream.


Colour Collection is the cosmetics line of Tupperware. 


Colour Collection has whitening with Glutathione and Arbutin to make skin radiantly fairer and smoother with every use. It also claims 8 Skin Benefits.

8 SKIN BENEFITS

  1. Whitens and brightens skin
  2. Protects skin from ultra violet rays
  3. Helps heal acne blemishes
  4. Softens and hydrates dry skin
  5. Promotes cell renewal
  6. Reduces pigmentation
  7. Retains moisture
  8. Aids in improving skin elasticity




I definitely loved the fact that it already has SPF 30. It claims that it also acts as a whitening cream with its glutathione and papaya extract to even out skin tone and promote healthy cell renewal. It acts as a tinted makeup base or sheer foundation because of its self-adjusting shade that complements all Asian skintones. It doubles as a moisturizer with shea butter and soothing aloe vera, and works as a toner with hazel extracts that treats blemishes. 

Direction for Use:
Shake well before use. After moisturizing face, apply a pea sized amount on forehead, apples of cheeks and chin. Blend well using fingers or sponge applicator. 
Full Size: 40ml 
Price: Php 599 
Sample Size: 1 pc. 40ml (full-sized)


The BB Cream has a thick consistency and has a tone closer to my skin color. It's not that dewy or moisturized as compared to others. It works well with my combination / oily skin. 



It spreads well and I like the fact that it really evens out any discoloration.

Here you can see that I had the back of my hands lay bare. You can clearly see slight freckles and veins. After putting the BB Cream, it really evened it out and concealed some of my freckles and veins. It works really well. It has a powder finish that is very nice. I love to use it for my everyday make-up routine.



Left: Without BB Cream; Right: With Colour Collection Whitening BB Cream SPF 30

VERDICT


PROS:
  • Affordable
  • Packaging is simple
  • Consistency
  • Coverage
  • Good for oily skin
  • Powder finish
  • Evens out blemish and skin discoloration


CONS:
  • Only available from Tupperware PH direct sellers
  • Limited shade. Works best on Light to Medium skin tone.


RATING: 4/5

Packaging - 4/5
Quality - 5/5
Staying Power - 5/5
Availability - 2/5
Price - 4/5

Will I buy it again? YES. :) I just wish I could find a seller for this.

4. Cure Natural Aqua Gel 10 sachets / approx. 1ml - Full Size | Php 1,500
This #1 exfoliator from Japan is made from 90% water but safely and effectively removes dead skin's surface! Try this one month trial pack for a brigther and smoother skin without having to scrub hard.

It is the ultimate protector for your hair before styling. It says "Curl" on the bottle, I wonder what it is for? Is it for heat protection or for "curling" / "curly" hair.

Unboxing: Mary Kay Starter Kit | Beauty

Unboxing: Mary Kay Starter Kit | Beauty


So what can your Php 1,975 give you? I'll be giving you a sneek peek on what's inside the Mary Kay Starter Kit for those who are curious about it. I don't know if this may vary every season / year, but I know the brochures do vary every season / month.

What's Inside?


So I opened the huge package and saw a huge bag!!!

1. Mary Kay Bag (Black)
Well the material is nice and it's huge. I immediately thought of it as one of my gym bags! LOL!

Mary Kay Bag (Black)

Then inside the Mary Kay Bag are the goodies! :D Finally! I was surprised on the quantity of the items inside. 

2. Mary Kay Creme Lipstick (SAMPLES) - 18pcs | Php 100 per color
So there's Mary Kay Creme Lipstick Samples in three colors: Red Rouge, Toffee Caramel and Apricot Glaze. Six samples per color which makes 18 Lipstick samples in total. You can immediately use them for personal use (so you can try it!) and to your friends.

Mary Kay Creme Lipstick (SAMPLES)


3. Timewise 3-in-1 Cleanser + Timewise Age-Fighting Moisturizer (SAMPLES) - 6pcs/each 
Samples of their best selling cleanser was given in samples together with their best selling moisturizer. They were packed in set, having the cleanser joined with the moisturizer so you can have it both when you travel or give it to your friends. These two came in for DRY to NORMAL skin (Of which I am NOT) so this one goes to my friends. :)

Timewise 3-in-1 Cleanser + Timewise Age-Fighting Moisturizer (SAMPLES)

Timewise 3-in-1 Cleanser (DRY TO NORMAL) Full Size 127g | Php 1,175Timewise Age-Fighting Moisturizer (DRY TO NORMAL) Full Size 88ml | Php 1,280

4. Timewise Microdermabrasion Step 1: Refine and Step 2: Replenish (SAMPLES) - 6pcs/each
I loved this product! It's like a facia scrub but better? This is the best scrub I have tried so far! How I wish this comes in full size for the starter kit. :( I already tried on one sachet, I think I will finish all the samples. But I'll try to save some for my mom, dad and friends.

Timewise Microdermabrasion Step 1: Refine and Step 2: Replenish (SAMPLES)

Timewise Microdermabrasion Step 1: Refine - Full Size 70g | Php 1,530Timewise Microdermabrasion Step 2: Replenish - Full Size 29ml | Php 1,530
Timewise Microdermabrasion SET | Php 3,060

5. Disposable Mixing Trays - 5pcs | Php 75
I don't know what this is for, but from the looks of it, I think you'll put products here from cleanser, facial cloth, scrub.. etc. I wonder if I can use this as palette for my makeup gigs.

Disposable Mixing Trays


6. Disposable Facial Cloths - 60pcs | Php 150
I think this is for cleaning the face from residue before cleansing or during makeup sessions. I don't know if it's dry or wet. Haven't tried to open it yet. LOL!



7. Timewise Matte-Wear Liquid Foundation - 2pcs | Php 785
Yay! Finally full sized items! So I got these foundations both of which I cannot use. WHY? First, one is in IVORY 5 and the other is in BEIGE 2 of which I still have. :) So.... I think this is open for sale. :)

Timewise Matte-Wear Liquid Foundation

Timewise Matte-Wear Liquid Foundation


8. Timewise 3-in-1 Cleanser 127g | Php 1,175
So now here's something I can use... or not? I'm still torn! Given that I still have a facial cleanser and this is really worth something, I'm torn between using it or selling it. It's for COMBINATION to OILY skin. Any advice?? :D

9. Timewise Age-Fighting Moisturizer 88ml | Php 1,280
This moisturizer is best used with the 3-in-1 cleanser and it's also for COMBINATION to OILY skin. USE? or SELL? or GIVEAWAY? :) Hmmm.



10. Mary Kay Facial Mirror - 3pcs | Php 60
Yay! I have been missing this! I have a mirror of this size when I was in High School and College. I'll surely use one and giveaway the other two. Yup! I'm feeling really generous today!

Le Faerie Cosmetics Cream Eyeshadow Base | Review

Eye shadow base is a very essential component of a bright and colorful eye color. If you are going for a dramatic and colorful look, you should always start your eyes with a BASE. In this case a colored BASE is highly recommended.


And one of the Eye Shadow Bases that I have tried is from Le Faerie Cosmetics. I tried this while doing a dramatic Arabic Bridal Make-up look.

Arabic Wedding Makeup - Le Faerie Cosmetics
I used the green shadow on her lids and the darker shade of green on her crease blending to white towards her brow bone. I then enhanced the crease with the black shadow and shaped it all the way outlining her crease line. Then blended it out.

But in addition to the cream eye base shadow, I topped it off with powder eyeshadow to set it. Thus the vibrant results perfect for an Arabic Look..

VERDICT

I loved the consistency. It is creamy and is very pigmented. Perfect for dramatic eyes or for fashion runways. It is very sheer and may be very prone to creasing. It's oil based that's why it glides pretty well, but may gather up if your lids are too oily. So for this you really need to have a good primer to start it with.

I am also amazed by the fact that these colors can be used as LIP COLOR because of its creamy texture.

PROS:
  • Consistency
  • Pigmentation
  • Affordable (Php 750)
  • It has all the basic colors
  • Makes eye-shadow colors pop!


CONS:
  • White & Silver has almost the same color
  • Sometimes too sheer
  • Has powdery substance upon application
  • Using brush can be very tricky - best to use your finger tips
  • Staying power is weak if used without primer


RATING: 3.6/5

Packaging - 4/5
Quality - 4/5
Staying Power - 2/5
Availability - 3/5
Price - 5/5

Will I buy it again? Yes. :) This works well for fantasy make-up, fashion make-up, or even party looks that requires vibrant colors.

BDJ Elite Box
Colour Collection

September 2013


Hello ladies! So BDJ again released an exclusive Elite Box. When they say "Elite" it's a lot more pricey than their regular box. Sometimes they also do exclusives.

For this month of September, they are giving out the Colour Collection BDJ Elite Box.
BDJ Elite Box Colour Collection  September 2013
BDJ Elite Box Colour Collection  September 2013
BDJ Elite Box Colour Collection  September 2013
BDJ Elite Box Colour Collection  September 2013

Another thing that differentiates the Elite BDJ Box from their regular boxes is that they release the contents of the box before shipping (or before ordering). They already show you what you will get. And personally, it destroys my curiosity. Well, it depends if the items/brands are really worth it.

When I saw the items, I am not really fond of Colour Collection although I really love their BB Cream which I am still using now. I'm curious about the anti-ageing BB Cream and also the Lip Therapy since it contains Argan Oil (my ultimate favorite!). I'm also not much excited on the blush, eyeshadows and lippies (of which I have read some negative reviews on pigmentation).

But the Cascade Acrylic Case would be really nice to have!!

The Elite Box for September 2013 costs Php 1,880 with Php 6,000 worth of goodies inside. Saving you almost 70%! Not bad :) 

So will you be getting one?
Should I get one?

Think. Think. Think.

8 Shades of Mary Kay Creme Lipstick | Reviews

$

Mary Kay
Creme Lipstick


Hello dearies! Being a fan of lipstick in general, I have been eye-ing on this items for months already! Saw this from a friend and she has a whole bunch and I just got jealous! I have one of these and I must admit that it's one of my favorite! SO I hurried and got 5 full sized items and I also included in this review 3 more shades that I got as samples. :)


These items are Mary Kay's basic lipstick line mostly in Satin finish. Some are also Frosted which is good for night wear.


I do love their packaging. It's very durable and looks very elegant.


They have also place "swatches" or more of a color representation of the lipstick. Though personally, I don't think they MATCH the real pigment of the lipstick when applied. But still, it's a good reference... good enough.


So the five shades that I got in full size (3.6g) are RED SALSA, DUSTY ROSE, GARNETFROST, PINK SATIN and PINK MELON. Here in the Philippines, they have 14 shades available for purchase.

Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Red Salsa" | Php 700
Red Salsa is a warm red pigment. It's bright and very pigmented when applied. It's a perfect red color for day-time. Perfect for fair to medium skin tone.


Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Dusty Rose" | Php 700
Dusty Rose is a sweet pigment of rose. It's not matte but it does not have much "frost"... it's more of a satin finish. It's my favorite everyday shade out of the bunch.


Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Garnetfrost" | Php 700
Garnetfrost is really frosted in an almost old rose tint. It may not be my first bet for an everyday lipcolor but will be very nice for an evening date.


Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Pink Satin" | Php 700
Pink Satin also has frosted finish but has a sweeter pigment than Garnetfrost. It's my second best for everyday lipstick. It's very sweet and subtle.

Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Pink Melon" | Php 700
Pink Melon is a bright kind of pink with a Satin finish. It's good for a playful day ;)


With my 5 shades I also have 3 more lipstick samples that I got from the Starter Kit (See my review on that here.) would like to share their swatches with you! These are RED, APRICOT GLAZE and TOFFEE.

Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Red" | Php 700
Red is a deep pigment which has a cool undertone. Unlike Red Salsa, this has a deeper tone in it. A more elegant feel. Perfect for a sexy night out. Looks good to medium to dark "morena" skin tone.

Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Apricot Glaze" | Php 700
Apricot Glaze has the frosted finish of a warm brown/nude pigment. Perfect for everyday wear or light evening event. Best used with smokey eyes.

Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in "Toffee" | Php 700
Toffee is also a nude color with Satin finish. It is very light, perfect for a day look. This is my first purchased Mary Kay Lipstick. And I have been using it since.

VERDICT

So there you go! 8 Shades of Mary Kay Creme Lipstick. I really love the texture and pigmentation of this set. However, you cannot really see it's actual pigment without trying it out first. The reference color on the packaging is not very much reliable. Nude colors were presented as BROWNS/ORANGE which is not very attractive at first. But when you try them out, you will love them immediately!

That's why I've decided to make swatches for your personal reference.


PROS

  • Pigmentation
  • It does not dry my lips
  • Durable packaging
  • There are a lot of shades to choose from

CONS
  • They do not have Matte finish lipsticks
  • Too many frosted shades
  • Does not last THAT long. You need to retouch after eating / drinking.

RATING: 4.1/5
Packaging - 5/5
Quality - 4/5
Staying Power - 3.5/5
Availability - 4/5
Price - 4/5

Will I buy it again? YES! For it's price, it's on the mid-range of lipsticks. And based on my personal experience I strongly think that it's really worth. Can't wait to try all the other shades!

Nail Polish Review:

Chanel Le Vernis
Tendresse

Chanel Le Vernis - 507 Tendresse


Talk about back-logs, here's a nail color that I got 2 months ago! My very first Chanel Nail Lacquer. Yay! I got so excited because I got them on SALE. Yes, on sale from Rustan's Makati.

Chanel Le Vernis - 507 Tendresse

Kudos to my friend who shared their employee sale with me so I got this half the price. This is really sold at Php 1,250 available in Rustan's Makati.

Chanel Le Vernis - 507 Tendresse

This is my first designer polish which makes me really excited to try it out. One difference it has from all the other drug store polish is the quality of smoothness during application. On this photo, I used two coatings and the color was perfect. 

Chanel Le Vernis - 507 Tendresse

You just need to apply final coating of clear polish with quick dry since the consistency of this polish was a bit thick. It doesn't dry very quick so you need some Quick Dry afterwards. As you can see, my pinkie got caught up. :/

Chanel Le Vernis - 507 Tendresse

VERDICT:


PROS:
  • Color / Pigmentation
  • Smooth on application
  • Packaging is very durable
  • One to two coats is enough
  • Durable color. It can last longer than the regular brands.

CONS:
  • Too expensive
  • Limited stocks
  • Only available in stores like Rustan's


RATING: 3.6/5

Packaging - 4/5
Quality - 4/5
Staying Power - 5/5
Availability - 3/5
Price - 2/5

Will I buy it again? I think I will invest on designer polish once or twice a year. But not as often as I would with drugstore brands. And I will mostly get colors that I can use for everyday. More on neutrals I guess..

Have you tried the Chanel Le Vernis? What color is your favorite?

BDJ Box
November 2013
"Blushing Beauty"


So I missed my October 2013 Box. *sad* And it's all because of the Paypal issues for recurring subscriptions. I can talk all day about it and how frustrated I was but I would like to spare it for this post. No bad vibes for me (and for you) today! ;)

Unboxing: BDJ Box November 2013 - Blushing Beauty | Beauty Box

And now I received my NOVEMBER 2013 BDJ Box a little early than the usual. And all my frustrations over the October Box was thrown away out the window!!! I love you BDJ! :D

What's Inside?


BDJ Box November 2013 - Blushing Beauty | Beauty Box

This month is all about the "Blushing Beauty". Their aim is to give out the real beauty in you, a blushing and radiant beauty. They have gathered products that are organic, and nourishing for a youthful glow.

BDJ Box November 2013 - Blushing Beauty | Beauty Box

I was so shocked and very pleased to see the items on my box!!! When I saw that Argan Oil peeking through, I was ecstatic!!! Like, I'm already 100% satisfied with this box!


BDJ Box November 2013 - Blushing Beauty | Beauty Box

So mostly the box contains bath cream, facial foam, hygienic cleanser, oil, perfume, and a few cosmetic items. Indeed, it's a full package! It gave a complete beauty set, from head to toe! It's nice when beauty boxes consider an all around package. I must say, I am really satisfied with this!

1. ZA Perfect Solution Cleansing Foam 3.5 oz - Full Size | Php 345

Made with Marine Collagen that encourages the skin's renewal process, and nature-derived plant see extracts, this high performance anti-aging cleansing foam gives your skin a youthful resilience and a silky glow. A small amount is all you need for thoroughly cleansed skin.

I'm not a fan of facial wash / cleansing foams so I'm not really excited for this. ZA has been marketing their line of facial care lately and they have a pretty wide collection of skin care products. For this one, I don't I will be using this anytime soon because I'm still treating my previous breakouts and I don't want to have another set if this is not good. :/

 If you have tried this, please do share your reviews in the comment box! Would definitely want to hear them out! ;)

2. The Cream Factory Bath Cream 26 fl oz - Full Size | Php 699

Made from real Goat's Milk from the Netherlands and 100% Active Botanical Extracts. The Cream Factory Bath Creams will leave your skin feeling velvety smooth and fresh all day, even into the night. It's yummy, delicious, and fun, like dessert for the skin.

I just tried this and used it like a conditioner for my skin. It smells really sweet and yummy!

3. Oil of Argan 30ml - Full Size | Php 600

This rare oil is extracted from the nuts of Argan Trees in Southwest Morocco. Its blend of Omega-6 Vitamin E, and essential fatty acids makes it a potent moisturizer and antioxidant. When used regularly, it restores the natural tightness of your skin preventing signs of premature ageing.

My favorite out of the bunch! Yes I'm an ultimate Argan Oil fan! You can check out my review on Argan Oils and where you can buy them. I already had this brand and got the full size. I was ecstatic to see another bottle even at 10ml. It simply means I have extra stock! If only I can buy tons of this and hoard for some more stocks! Thank you once again BDJ! You made me really happy.

4. Canmake Powder Cheeks - Full Size | Php 390

This finely-milled powder blush from Canmake gently colors your skin, for a soft and natural finish. Just dust lightly over your cheeks for a warmer complexion and a more colorful look. It comes in a cute compact case so you can take it wherever you go.

And I totally agree! I love that it is handy and fits my overflowing kikay kit perfectly! Though the shade is a little light for me (having light olive skin). Though it's good for mid-day retouches. It can give you that subtle and natural blush. And did I say that I totally love their brush?! It's so smooth!!!:D I got the one in PW05.

5. Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss 5.9ml - Full Size | Php 570

Get a pop of weightless color with vivid mirror like shine with Colorburst's Elasticolor technology and its micro-crystal formula. It is also packed with moisturizers and anti-oxidants such as sweet almond oil and vitamin E conditions and improves lip texture.

So again I got a RED lipgloss. I think my profile screams RED all the time! This month I got Revlon's Colorburst Lipgloss in Fire. When I wear this, I'm literally the "Girl On Fire". ;) I love the color and I'm so excited to give this a try.

6. Yves Rocher Naturelle Eau de Toilette 50ml - Full Size | Php 1,495

Composed of 90% natural ingredients, this fresh and sparkling scent will infuse your aura with a blend of green, floral and fruity notes. It has facets of crisp green apple, an innocent floral heart of Egyptian jasmine absolute and peach blossom, grounded by hints of Virginian cedar, amber and musk.

I always love handy perfumes. What I got from the box is just 7.5ml Sample Size. Though the scent reminds me of my Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. :) I love it. It's not grand.. but it's OK. If you know what I mean.

7. Saforelle Gentle Cleansing Care 100ml - Full Size | Php 159.75 (Bonus Item)

Saforelle is the leading feminine wash in Paris France enriched with the soothing and anti-itch properties of Burdock.

So I got another one from Saforelle. I had my first bottle from Glamourbox, and I must say I have been using it ever since. Now that I got another one in a smaller bottle, it's perfect for travel and when I go to the gym. ;)
