REVIEW: Etude House Color my Brows #5 Blondie Brown

I am such a newbie when it comes to fixing my eyebrows. I admire people who are so skilled at 'drawing' their own eyebrows. The only thing I could to is to color them :) 

There was a time that I wanted to color my eyebrows using hair dye. Good thing I didn't or else I would look like Miley Cyrus when she bleached her eyebrows. 



And this is NOT the kind of eyebrows that I want

I am so glad that browcara was invented. I was a bit amused with the term 'browcara' (there's a big smile on my face right now). I don't know where that word came from but this is what we put to color our eyebrows temporarily. 

Here's my review of Etude House Color my Brows #5 Blondie Brown.

Product Name: Etude House Color my Brows 
Shade: Comes in 5 shades - For this review, I have the #5 Blondie Brown 
Price Tag: PhP 255 from my favorite online shop, Han Ryu. I am just not quite sure how much it is in Etude House shops.

REVIEW: BAVIPHAT Sugar Girl All Skin Collagen Primer

Hello! Hello! 

I'm trying to organize my make up and other skin care stuff inside my room. I just realized I still have a lot of items to blog. :( 

This one is way overdue. 


I'll be doing a review for a primer. The last time I had a review for a primer was a year ago. It was BAVIPHAT Secret Recipe Under My Skin Goodbye Sebum Primer (you can click the name to check that review).  


I am going to do a review for another Baviphat primer. I decided to get BAVIPHAT Sugar Girl All Skin Collagen Primer because I loved BAVIPHAT Secret Recipe Under My Skin Goodbye Sebum Primer. 


Here it is: 




The packaging is really cute. :)

REVIEW: HOLIKA HOLIKA Pig-nose Clear Blackhead Cleansing Sugar Scrub

Oh! I can feel CHRISTMAS! It's already SEPTEMBER! (I live in the Philippines and here, Christmas Season do start in SEPTEMBER... ^_^ ) 

Here's my first review for this month - HOLIKA KOLIKA Pig-nose Clear Blackhead Cleansing Sugar Scrub




***********************************************

Aside from pimples, I also have a big problem with blackheads and whiteheads.  
Argh!
I'm still jumping into different products and still looking for the one that can really really minimize or remove these nasty blackheads and whiteheads. 

Last year, I bought Holika Holika PIG-NOSE CLEAR BLACKHEAD Deep Cleansing Oil Balm (click the name so you can check out my previous blog about this) and HOLIKA HOLIKA Pig-nose Clear Blackhead Cleansing Sugar Scrub from Han Ryu. I already made review with the former so I'll be doing a review for the latter. :) [my goodness! i did not understand what i just wrote! hahahahahaha!]

My first ever MIZON BB Cream^_^

REVIEW: BAVIPHAT Under My Skin Goodbye Sebum PRIMER

Whoa!
Well hello to me! I've been out for almost a month. (Well not almost, should I say more than a month.)
I've been VERY busy with work these days. I really miss writing reviews and ranting about stuff. I have a lot of items waiting in line to be reviews but it seems I was in a "I ain't got time for that" mode.

Well I am back with a simple review on : BAVIPHAT Secret Recipe Under My Skin Goodbye Sebum Primer (Whew! I hope they were able to think on a shorter name for their product!)


*********************************************************************
I am so addicted to having a "smooth-looking, blemish free" face. I guess that's one of my insecurities since I've suffered years of having acne on my face. I also have problems with oiliness so I am still in search for products that can somehow control oil production. 

I am honestly a newbie when it comes to using PRIMERS. So when I found out that primers can actually control oil production and makes make up stay longer, I suddenly had the urge to grab one and here's my first ever PRIMER ;) 


Product Name: BAVIPHAT Secret Recipe Under My Skin Goodbye Sebum Primer
(*Baviphat is a Korean brand)

How much: Hmmm.. I honestly could not remember! I am so sorry, I got this one on sale from my favorite online shop on Facebook: Han Ryu (click the link/name if you want to be directed to the online shop webpage). 

Content: 35ml

Unfortunately, the official website of BAVIPHAT is Korean! 
I am so sorry I couldn't give you the official description of the product.  


There are the reasons why I bought this primer: 
*BAVIPHAT Under My Skin Goodbye Sebum PRIMER promises to control sebum (oil) production. 
*Promises to leave your skin a matte-finish (I LOVE MATTE!)
*Minimize enlarge pores (I don't know if it really promises to minimize enlarged pores or if it make the enlarged pores look small). 


I found a picture from an online store (http://www.eopenmarket.com/baviphat-under-my-skin-goodbye-sebum-primer-35ml.html?sl=EN) 






Anyways, here's the actual product:

REVIEW: TONYMOLY EXPERT TRIPLE BB CREAM

Ola!
It has been ages since I last posted a review here on this blog. Even my personal Tumblr blog went on a hiatus for the past five months!! 

My work became a bit stressful and I had to adjust myself with the schedule so I had to put this blog on a rest for a while. 
I promise to write whenever I have time. :)


*****************************************************************
Before the year ended last 2012, I bought a haul of on-sale items from my favorite Korean Cosmetics Online shop - HAN RYU. 


Instagram Photo. Sorry, the photo's not that clear. 
I got a lot of freebies from this loot. :) 
I actually bought the following: 


Nature Republic Simple Making Gel Eyeliner 01 Black-PhP 245
Ecopure Hair Color Cream N10 - PhP 250
MIZON Snail Repair BB Cream - PhP 445Lioele Bubi bubi mascara 7g #4 Gorgeous Black - PhP 185Tonymoly Expert Triple BB Cream - PhP 595+ Vanedo Masks
1. Snail (3)
2. EGF (1)
3. Pomegranate (1)
4. coenzyme q10 (2)



PLUS! free samples (samples with the capital-S, my dear!) of SULWHASOO creams, serums and BB creams! (Hurray!) 

But for today, I will be doing a review for Tonymoly Expert Triple BB Cream
Here's another BB CREAM review. 

**************************************************************************

NAME: Tonymoly Expert Triple BB Cream SPF45. PA+++
It's a BB cream from Tonymoly (and this is my second Tonymoly BB cream - remember TonyMoly Luminous Goddess Aura BB Cream?)





Net. Wt: 50ml 
Price: I got this for PhP 595 from Han Ryu.     
            PhP 928  in Tonymoly stores
With: SPF 45+++

Product Description: 
After reading the product description from tonymoly.ph (the official website of Tonymoly Philippines), I got a slight headache.
Anyways, here's the official product description:

Expert triple BB cream SPF45PA+++ Diffused reflection makes prism effects under any lights, completes spotless shiny skin Expert 3D Collagen BB cream SPF40PA+++ Boosting Collagen synthesis effect helps skin reconstruction. Filling between the wrinkle

If that doesn't help, maybe this one will: 

I don't have any idea what OPTICAL SENSORY POWDER means. Really.

REVIEW: BAVIPHAT MAGIC GIRL STAR GLAM - HIGHLIGHT PINK


I am a big fan of matte - matte-foundation, matte lipstick, matte blush-on etc. 

Then I just realize that I wanna try something new. So I decided to buy a highlighter just for a change. I got Baviphat Secret Recipe Magic Girls Star Glam Highlight - PINK (jeez. That's a loooong name!) . 

This is my first review for a highlighter. Hmmmm.. and I have mixed feelings for this product.



WARNING: AGAIN, I love taking photos (although I am not a photographer and I do not have a keen eye for perfection that most photography enthusiasts are looking for). This review contains a lot of images and it may take some time for the photos to load.




(Please click the photos if you want to enlarge the photos.) 
***********************************************


THE PRODUCT:
- This is a liquid HIGHLIGHTER  from Baviphat. 
- There are two shades for this highlighter - Gold and PINK. I will be doing a review of the PINK shade. 
- Baviphat does not have an English website :( I wish they have so I can take a look at their products (before I order them online) 
- Here's an English description for this product which I found on this website: 


Highlighter which can be used also as makeup base provides subtle luster that naturally blends in with the eye area, cheekbones, and nose to give volume and make face look smaller. Skin-fit polymer maintains skin clear and glossy for long hours. 
DIRECTION
Mix into makeup base or foundation for dazzling skin. On the last step of makeup, apply onto cheekbones and nose for smaller-looking face.
 


- PRICE: I got this on sale at 350pesos!!! (of course from my favorite online store -Han Ryu) 
- Volume: 15ml 
- It comes in a nail polish-like glass container (well actually, it looks more like a nail polish than a highlighter to me!)


It look's like a nail polish!
