THOUGHTS:
BLUSHES
3CE Blush in Diotima
- Straight from my sister's trip in Korea. Originally wanted Cabbage Rose but I wasn't informed that that shade was the best seller so I quickly searched the safest shade I thought would suit me that was available then I had Diotima. Regret lol. It was orange with a hint of brown that didn't really suit me well. It was like holding a clay pot then smeared my fingers on my cheeks to have a color on my face that is what this shade looks like on me. Barely used. :(
Colourette coloursnap in Waves
- Cute packaging, travel friendly, multi use. One of the main ingredient is Castor oil, was a bit hesitant to put in on my cheeks because oily skin then putting on castor oil based product on my face didn't wanna risk it. I did try however to use it on my lips but not long lasting not a lot of stain. Barely used as well. :(

Gonna share the products that I use for my everyday make-up look! Here goes:
1. Sunscreen: Belo SunExpert Tinted Sunscreen, PhP 449.75 for the 500ml variant, Watsons
I use this under my make-up. It has a very light coverage - it doesn't even cover my sun spots/freckles. Sometimes I use this when I'm feeling lazy, or when I don't feel like putting anything heavy on my face. It only has one shade: medium to deep, but it has tone adapting technology, which helps in matching the shade to my skin tone. It also has SPF 50 PA+++, so it's great for protection against the harmful rays of the sun.
2. A. Make-up base: Superface lights, camera, action! zoom in mesh cushion in the shade 02 natural, PhP 1,890.00, Charis
My holy grail make-up base! Local youtubers dubbed this product as the perfect cushion for morena skin, AND I definitely agree! It evens out my skin tone, and covers up my imperfections, and redness with just one layer. It feels light on my skin, and it doesn't feel sticky at all. It has a dewy finish, which makes my skin looks glow-y/fresh. Whenever I use this, it feels like it's just my skin, but LOADS better! #MySkinButBetterWithSuperface (w0w may pa hashtag) (di po to sponsored, pero kung gusto ng Charis, tatanggapin ko po, char0t) Definitely worth the price!
Tip: Look out for Charis's 50% sale to score this cushion for PhP 950.00 with refill pa!
2. B. Alternative make-up base: Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream in the shade 23, PhP 1,000.00, Althea
This is the first make-up base that I've tried. The shade 23 is their darkest shade, but it's still a bit light for my skin tone. It can also cover my imperfections with just one layer. It also has SPF 47 PA+++, so this is a good make-up base x skincare. I guess my only complaint is that it turns gray-ish once I oil up. Other than that, this product is pretty good.
Tip: Sometimes there's a 50% sale rin sa Althea, you can get this at only PhP 550.00
3. Brows: Careline Best Brow Liner in the shade Taupe, PhP 160.00-175.00, Watsons
I have my brows threaded monthly at Hey, Sugar! Waxing Salon (it helps me figure out the shape of my otherwise nonexistent brows huhu). I really like this brow liner because its formula is not too waxy, nor is it too creamy. It's just right, and it stays on my brows even when I oil up. The shade Taupe is perfect for my jet black hair.
4. Mascara: Missha 4D Mascara, PhP 300.00, Althea
Whenever I have my brows done, they would always ask me if I had my lashes permed/lifted. I'd always respond with, "Mascara at eyelash curler lang po yan, ate", tapos di sila maniniwala sksksksk. It's very long-lasting, and water-proof. I cried my eyes out sa airplane while watching Money Heist Part 02 Ep 08, and it didn't even budge (and ya'll know how emotional that episode is lol).
5. Eyeliner: Nichido Liquid Eyeliner, less than PhP 100.00, Watsons
This is what I use to create my signature cat eye/rakista/goth/emo look. This baby can last for more than 12 hours. I swear! Iiwan ka na ng lahat, pero nandito pa rin tong eyeliner na to lmao. What I love about it is that it has this very thin brush, which helps in drawing very precise lines. You can go for a thin or thick eyeliner look with this one.
6. A. Cream blush: Coloursnap multi-use stain in the shade Kween, PhP 250.00, Colourette Cosmetics
I use this for my signature drunk blush/nakamura sa cheek tint look lol. This can be used for the eyes, cheeks, and lips. I usually use this for my cheeks and lips only. It's quite sheer, that's why you need to build up the product for you to get the desired pigment/level of drunk blushness (lol). It also has a dewy finish, so you need to set it with loose powder. I guess my only complaint is that it's quite sheer, so you need to reapply after a few hours. For the lips, I usually use it under my lippie. Some sort of lip balm, I guess, since it's very creamy, and moisturising.
6. B. Alternative cream blush: La Doctress Cloud Blush Tube in the shade Aurora Red, PhP 190.00, Kalm Cosmetics
This product is VERY pigmented - a little goes a long way. My only complaint is that it's a bit hard to control because it really is very pigmented. But when you get it right, mukha kang naarawan lang. Pag napasobra, mukhang nasapak! Haha!
7. A. Lippie: Maybelline Creamy Matte in the shade Touch of Spice, PhP 299.00, Maybelline
My go-to lippie! I use this everyday. The shade suits any skin tone. It's has a creamy matte formula so don't expect it to last you the whole day. Sometimes I use it on my eyes, and cheeks rin to create a monochromatic rose-ish look.
7. B. Alternative lippie: Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream in the shade Cannes, PhP 390.00, BeautyMNL
I love the formula of this product! Feels so soft and creamy on your lips, but it has a soft matte finish. Don't expect it to last you the whole day, though.
8. Highlighter: Fenty Beauty Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter in the shade Hu$tla Baby, $36.00, Sephora
I use this when I feel like being extra or when I need to blind dem h8rs lol.
Aaaaaaand I guess that's it.
Ty 4 reading, hope you didn't get bored lol.
