To TRY or NOT?

Few weeks ago on iTunes, I was looking for free music because I'm a diva like that and I was like, COLBIE CAILLAT? What is this sorcery? No offense but Colbie Caillat is the first artist I have encountered that I know on the single of the week feature of iTunes. It is a nice song! I was actually impressed and felt like I won the lottery for some reason. Anyways.  It's just recently that the video became a thing on Facebook and so I watched. In a  nutshell, it's a video of girls taking off their make-ups. It's nice as it is but I don't know.  Just being a video about girls taking off their make-ups made the song less valuable. I think. Because for some reason, I don't think girls who put make-up are just trying. You know what I mean? Girls sometimes put make-up for fun and just because. It's colorful and fun. Not really trying to impress other people and stuff. Yeah? What happened to YOU JUST HAVE TO GET UP GET UP GET UP? It's like my favorite part. Oh we...

Baby Lips by Maybelline Product Review

Image
This is how the thing looks like unopened. It's actually  The flavor my mom got me was Mixed Berry. I don't know what goodness can it give my lips but it's sure smells delicious or maybe it's because of olfaction and shiz. I don't know.  This is how the thing looks like and as you can see, it's quite pink already so it's quite obvious that you would get that pink glow it claims to give. It's moisturizing and it's really easy to apply so   I'm really happy about this product.  This is how it looks like on my hand. Don't be fooled though because I applied this when I was about to go to the hospital and then when I looked at the mirror there, my lips were neon. It doesn't look like it for the first few minutes that you would apply it but really? Neon? I was like surprised because WTH? It's probably just my lips or whatever but this is intense. Now, I actually like the color it gives but it was just inappropria...

Cheap Doesn't Equal Value

Image
Nothing really special about the packaging. Not nice or anything. It's simply boring. But you can't really complain much because it's cheap so yeah. The brand is ELLEFAR  and I got the colors Elegant Mauve and Clear Coral. If you don't speak colors, it's pretty much hot pink and orange. Yay!  To open the lid of the lipstick, you have to remove the plastic covering it so the only thing you could hold on to is the label below the lipstick like the picture above. The swatch of "Clear Coral" is kind of longer because I didn't expect it to be that pigmented so I kind of recklessly drew a line so yeah. They go on very smooth actually. I was a little bit surprised too when I applied it. I am pretty impressed with how vibrant the colors are. As you can see in the photo though, since I have dry skin, it basically followed the texture of my skin so if you're gonna apply this on your lips, you better have exfoliated, smooth lips.  ...

New York Pro Satin Lipstick in 431. A Review.

Image
I don't really like the color. Maybe it's just the color though. Other than the color, the consistency, application, and simple packaging is nice. But you know! You have to get the proper color of lipstick for you to totally rock it, yeah? Here's how the packaging looks like. Quite simple. I like how there's a "snippet" of what color the lipstick would be at the bottom. I like black tubes for lipstick. I don't know why. LOL. But only with the color thingy. Like, when you put all your black tubes together, it's kind of complicated. Unless you only have one color from each brand you own, then I guess, it's fine. And just like any items I own, I don't have an idea whether or not this is discontinued, how much this is, or anything else that I wouldn't be telling in this post. :) And if you haven't guessed it already, YES. My auntie gave this to me. For some reason, her taste is kind of weird. But I still love love her. :D...

M.A.C Lustreglass Lipgloss. A Review.

Image
Howdy! You might have seen this one already before. I kind of posted it but I don't know what exactly. Some place like make up collection or make up thingy I think. I mean, where else can it be? Haha I really used to love love love lip glosses. But now, not much. I don't know if I just think I'm too busy to do all that lip stuff or I'm just assuming to be. Or whatever. The packaging is quite simple. It's translucent so you can see all the stuff going on inside the tube. Like, glittery stuff and all that.  I obviously would prefer colored lip gloss since I think I don't have much time (yeah right) to kind of top this on my lipstick and all that. But it's also nice to let this on this own as well so whatevs. And it's glittery so it's all good.  I love how the glitters are put together. I love how it gives you a simple pay off of color yet it seems to look kind of sophisticated. Like, "NOT YOUR SIMPLE GLOSS." ...

What's in my Make Up Box?

Image
First of all, is there such a thing? LOL. The reason being is it's not a bag or something but a tackle box. I posted about this box before but yeah this is how it looks like. I haven't used a lot of items that's why I kind of placed everything here so they'll be easier to find when I need them and stuff. So let's break it down. I'm not gonna show colors though. Like, just a general one. I will be showing colors when I feel like reviewing them so don't worry! :) I'm gonna be doing a review on this thing soon. It's like a compact make up kit and stuff. So it's awesome! Lip glosses from Victoria Jackson as well. Lipsticks! I don't actually wear much lipsticks anymore but just in case. I'm actually a tinted lip balm baby nowadays. More lipsticks and some glosses. Powders! Yo might have seen my Elegance review but I realized I'm not a fan of it so I gave a box to my cousin because it's more of...

Peau Belle Concealer. Review.

Image
I had this concealer since last year I believe and I've been using it ever since. I like it. It feels kind of light and yeah kind of velvety when you're applying it and stuff. My mom bought it from Japan but judging from the name of it, it doesn't sound like it came from Japan or something. I actually didn't bother to clean the tube. So yeah as you can see, it's pretty messy. Oh well. LOL. I actually never heard of this brand  before or whatever but yeah. I  don't know if you can see it but it costs 300 yen and that's a pretty good deal for such product and stuff. And it's made in Taiwan. I'm confused right now. Anyways. It comes in a gold kind of packaging. The packaging is not bad but nothing really special about it either. It comes with an applicator stick and it's really pretty easy to apply. What I do is that I put a little product at the back of my hand and warm it up by mixing it a little bit there and apply it to my probl...

Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care. Review.

Image
I can't really stand the previous lip balm that I used so I got another one. And this time it's from Maybelline. It's actually the second Maybelline lip product that I've tried and so far, so good.  I don't know. I tried to look for couple of products there but yeah I don't know.  I love that it has SPF and stuff. Well, you know what that does, aye? Anyways. I picked the darkest one so to make up for that almost colorless tinge that my previous lip balm gives. And it's really non sticky. Basically, I have nothing against it. But I don't know if I like it that much. Pretty normal I should say. But really not bad after all. It comes off like that. This tube is actually smaller than the Nivea thus it weighs only 4.5 g compared to 4.8 g of the Nivea. But whatevs. I'm just saying.  The color pay off is not bad :) But not that great either. It doesn't really stay that long so you have to kind of re-apply once in a while an...

Nivea Soft Rose. Review.

Image
First things first, I kind of liked the idea that Nivea uses natural products (mostly). It makes me feel like I'm one with nature and all that stuff. I don't know why but I feel like using natural products is actually better than using all that chemicals and stuff. Well, not most of the time though. There are still synthetic products that works best. At this point, don't get confused. IT'S JUST ME. I actually saw this product right before I bought the pomegranate one and I just thought that I did well that time. Like, for reals. The packaging is quite classy.,Very simple. I actually don't like this ROSEY thingy that much. I don't know why though. But it leaves a thin film of I don't know what that is and it doesn't feel right most of the time. Also, although not that shimmery, it feels a little dry and it does not make me think that it's actually moisturizing my lips like it claims too. It's actually very hard to apply too. Li...

More stuff from JAPAN!! :D

Image
So these are what my sisters/auntie gave me as a present! SO BLESSED TO HAVE THEM. :D Random stuff! :) I love randomness. Some phone stuff! Love the "M and S" ear phone plug! <3 Stickers! Can I just say that I used to collect stickers as a child? What did you collect as a child? Make up! Victoria Jackson compact make up thingy is love! It looks like a walkie-talkie though. Hahaha might do a review on it in the future. Baby Shoop thingy! My auntie is a big fan of Baby Shoop and she kind of already gave me a lot of Baby Shoop product in the past. Might do a separate post about it soon! :D I love their bags! OMG. DOG FOOD! :) AWESOME! RIGHT? I'm so excited to actually use this. Although I am really a novice when it comes to sewing and stuff! I don't know what to do first with it though. Design my handkerchiefs perhaps? Mmmm.... Shorts and a jogging pants :) Interesting looking bag :D Love it!  Some M...
