REVIEW: NATURE REPUBLIC'S SIMPLE MAKING GEL EYE LINER 01 BLACK

Hi there!
It's 1:42 am and I've decided to write something about my recent project.
For the past few months, I've been turning green with envy because my colleagues were all showing their prowess in putting on eye makeup. So I have decided to LEARN the "how's and what's" on applying eye makeup. 



Let's go down to memory lane.....
I have problems with eye makeup because when I was in college, I had two eye surgeries because of CHALAZION. According to American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, a chalazion is a bump in the eyelid that is usually about the size of a small pea although it is occasionally smaller or larger. Well in layman's term, it's like a 'pimple' on your eyelid and it happens when a duct (and opening) get blocked. According to my doctor, these ducts can get blocked because of makeup or dirt.
In short, I was traumatized with the two surgeries I had so I never learned how to put eye makeup on. 



Back to the present....
I am a LATE-BLOOMER when it comes to eye makeup so please bear with me on this. I am a newbie so I will not do tutorials on how to put eye make up on but I will just give you my review on my VERY FIRST gel eyeliner: NATURE REPUBLIC'S SIMPLE MAKING GEL EYE LINER

REVIEW: VANEDO BEAUTY FRIENDS MASK

Hello again!
For the nth time, I am so sorry I could not regularly post my reviews :( I've been so busy these days at work. 


Anyways, I'll be doing a PART 2 of my review for VANEDO BEAUTY FRIENDS MASK. 


Check this site for the PART 1 of my review.
http://theunemployedfish.blogspot.com/2012/10/review-vanedo-beauty-friends-mask-snail.html#.UdR67ztmiSo

(*But I'll still do a complete full review of this product*) 


I learned about this brand when I got a freebie from my favorite online shop HAN RYU
I got the #16~SNAIL and I honestly love the result! 


THE PRODUCT


*It's a facial mask from Korea. 
*Comes in 25 types/variants/kinds. 
*One pack = One facial mask. 








HOW MUCH?
I bought these for 25pesos each. 
(I just edited this today: 07/06/2013. I tried to read the history of in my Facebook messages and I found out that I bought these masks for 25pesos each! not 50pesos. Sorry.) 

HOW TO USE?








These are the ones that I've tried so far



COENZYME Q10, POMEGRANATE, SNAIL and EGF






















My VERDICT:
I love these masks! These are a must-have for all ladies who are so conscious in looking good every morning.


Why I love them:
*These masks do not have a a strong scent so you will not get irritated while the mask is on. 

*These masks do not feel sticky.
* I haven't experience any itchiness or burning sensation while the mask is on. 
* I did not experience any break-outs after using these masks!! This is really one of my concerns since I have a pimple-prone skin. 

*After applying the mask, I did not feel the changes but the next morning, I noticed the difference. 
My skin felt soft and moisturized. It was easy for my to apply makeup because my skin felt supple and smooth. 

For the FIRMING effect, I actually haven't noticed that part. I am pretty sure that if I continued using the the product, I would definitely see the difference. :)


Will I buy these? If my wallet says yes, I will definitely get 100pieces of these masks. :)
