BLOGS REVIEWS AND MORE ;]

Friday, July 23, 2010

GUYSSS! I AM SUPER SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING ON SUCH LOONGGG NOTICE. I am extremely sorry because everything is sooo hectic. O.O so anyway. lets start with the review!

First off, there are different types of eyeliners. Such as, the liquid, kohl pencil, gel, and cream. Liquids usually come in a small container, or a felt tip, and gels or creams come in little jars. Obviously kohl pencils go with pencils :]

So let's start! :]



1. GEL EYELINERS- here on the picture is the one i extremely love to use which is the gel liner of maybelline in black. Its pretty amazing because it glides beautifully and for me, it creates the perfect wing. I also like it because it can create such detail on my lids or on my upper lashline. It's definitely not an eyeliner for your lower lashline, if you're pretty good with it, TEACH MEE. haha. but seriously, i recommend this eyeliner because it is waterproof, and it doesn't give you racoon eyes.

2. KOHL EYELINERS- here is the maybelline line express eyeliner pencil. It's great for tightlining, but not a fan of it. it instantly smudges when i scratch my eye. but i would like to commend it for become the best sultry look for the night time. It comes with a sponge tip applicator and i think it comes by 5 inches, so it's pretty short, and it does break a bit when you sharpen it. so i will give a fair 3 stars for it.

3.LIQUID EYELINERS- There are great eyeliners out there, like maybelline, prestige, nyx. my top 1 is prestige, though is brush is a felt tip, i have to say it comes out quite nicely. :] since i have hooded eyes a bit, its a pain when you open your eyes wide when the eyeliner is wet, and it's a pain to take off. haha. but intricate details is a plus 5 for me.so 4 stars is worthy.

4.CREAM EYELINERS- I dont have the picture about it, but I do own a smashbox wish pallete with cream eyeliners there, its great, due to the consistency when you put it on the lids, but it easily smudges off, like a soft kohl pencil. it also works pretty good as a base as well.

Alrighty. So that's all with the basics, sorry if this is really short but I promise you that I shall update a whole lot more!. Oh! up next are some reviews on what I bought during the past few months and an update to keep you guys organized! DONT FORGET! It doesn't hurt to comment or ask me anything! :] [Heck with the formspring]

I love you guys and take care! :]

Revlon ColorStay Active Softflex Foundation Review

Presenting....


<3<3<3


So here I shall present this product basically from the name itself, Revlon Colorstay Active Softflex Foundation. Its not the accurate picture shown but please bear with me. :]. So forth are the details and descriptions shown at the back:

- looks and feels freshly applied all day
- weightless, sweat proof and light coverage
- Softflex provides lightweight; all day comfort
- wont rub off with normal activity
- SPF 25

I bought it at watson's and it cost for about [400-700 plus php] and i guess its okay since it is from the USA and though it does come in a small tube[?].

So, furthermore, I tried it on my face for the first time and I was impressed at first, it stayed on the whole day, looked neat, and brightened my face into a nice glow. I got sensitive skin and to me, I thought it would be my dream foundation, but it WASN'T.

Next day, I used it again, and I got extremely shocked. my face and neck got extremely irritated, which gave me a rash for a week and it happened to look ghastly white when i applied the same amount as of before. I was sure the lighting was okay the first time and I didn't get dark at all.

So yes , I got disappointed with this product and right now I regret buying it. :[

BUT! Please, don't stop yourself using this product if ever you have it and don't stop yourself buying it if you like it. I did say it gave me a rash, but, everyone's skin is different so don't stop yourself. :]

So overall, I can give it 3 stars considering the fact that it worked great on the first try then didn't on the next. IRONIC.:DD

Lancome Oscillation Power Mascara Review

Presenting....


Lancome Oscillation Power Mascara! :]

<3<3<3<3<3


This is my soul mascara. period. haha. really, I love this mascara so much. From the word itself, "oscillation" it means that it typically oscillates or in easier terms, it vibrates. It's pretty expensive, like $43 because it also came with the primer. They both have a button, well, obviously to turn on the oscillation.

The first time I applied it, it blew my mind away. It felt tingly to the touch, but it was amazing. unlike wiggling the wand, it vibrates and whats great is that it removes all the clumping in the lashes. You seriously dont need to curl your lashes for this and it dries really quickly. It never smears and it lengthens with or without the primer.

Its extremely amazing. This is a to die for product. :]]

I'm sorry if this was a short review, I couldn't think anything about it because it's extremely amazing. :D

Mascara Reviews II- Rimmel

Heya! <3 well, I was pretty busy looking for products and the like and I'm very excited to tell you that I have a blogger, or blogspot. I dont know, but they're the same I presume. I'll put it up in the links after I finish. So anyway, let's begin with the review! :]



Rimmel is a London brand and they could be found in pharmacies in the USA and mostly in UK. Like Maybelline, they have affordable products, at it's best quality. I believe you can rarely see Rimmel here in the Philippines, but I'm extremely sure that there are online sellers here who has one of the products I have.

Honestly, I only have 2 mascaras, because I bought them along with 3 maybelline mascaras when I was abroad. They are slightly expensive, like a dollar up other than maybelline. So, here are my mascaras that I own:



1. LASH MAXXX<3<3<3<3
Okay, so this is my mom's favorite mascara :]], considering the fact that I do like it alot. It has a cool comb applicator so it will reduce clumping, leaving you super long, yet natural lashes. The thing is that you need the eyelash curler to show that it did lengthen and it also has a liquid-ish formula, so, it smears if you have applied a tad too much. Its like the great lash from maybelline but it doesn't give volume at all, so, I'm giving it 4 hearts. :]

2. GLAM EYES LASH FLIRT <3<3<3<3<3
This is the mascara is seriously a must have. You dont need to curl it. And it's like 2 in 1. It thickens, lengthens, and gives volume to my thin lashes. I think it's not waterproof, but I tell you, that this mascara doesn't smear the whole day, doesn't flake off, and this is super easy to remove. it comes in a luxurious, cute packaging and I can have it on the go, the problem is its like 12 dollars so, it's already expensive for one mascara. It's extremely worth it and I give it the reasonable 5 hearts.

Alrighty! That's all for this review.Coming up, is the Lancome Oscillation review. It will be posted up on the review entries. :] bye!

Mascara Reviews I -Maybelline. :]

Heya! Its JB here, and I somewhat cant make my blogs updated MWF, because usually, when I get my idea in a clear vision, I have to post it up because I easily forget. :D, Overall, I shall post a blog when idea sparks up!

So lets start with the mascara reviews, mascara really frames the eye, it completes the look and it will show your utmost emotions. I have valued and bought some mascara's and I'm loving them at the moment. Sorry, I cant give you a picture of me wearing it because i cant seem to find the usb. So anyway, let's start!


Here are my MAYBELLINE mascaras, as you all know, Maybelline is renowned for they're inexpensive mascaras and has been there in the makeup industry for quite a while now, and they are like "the drugstore queen of makeup". Haha. Why you ask? they are extremely fair priced, you can find them in most drugstores, and you get good quality, quantity and packaging. Here's the picture of the mascara's I own:

1. THE GREAT LASH MASCARA <3<3<3<3
This is a super amazing mascara, the bad thing about it is that it takes a really long time to dry out so, please don't scratch your eye if you have it on. But on the other note, it amazingly thickens my lashes and goes smooth with an eye lash primer. It gives you an even coat despite of the wand and it's compact so you can carry it on the go. I'm not sure if you can find it here in the Philippines and I bought it while I was travelling abroad. So, yeah, its an amazing mascara and I give it 4 hearts [hearts are better than stars :p]

2. LASH EXTREME <3<3<3
This is another one of my favorite mascaras because you don't need to curl your lashes. It comes in two mascaras, the primer and the mascara, and you can find it in most department stores. The primer is superbly amazing because when you apply it you can see the invisible lashes for an even application for the black mascara. The thing I don't like about this mascara is that it's very dependable to each other. I think that the black mascara smears and flakes without the primer, and If you have this, I really recommend you to use both of them because they easily dry out. So I'm giving it 3 hearts. :]

3. LASH STILETTO <3<3<3<3<3
Out of all maybelline's mascaras, this is one of the very very best. I believe this was discontinued before, but they sell it at some drugstores in the US, but if you have seen this mascara at the department store, then go buy it. I recommend this for people who have short lashes like I do, because this really lengthens the lashes and it applies very well. It has a very sleek tube in shape of a stiletto heel and the want can give an even coat on every angle from root to tip.I tell you, that this mascara is my must have's in my makeup bag, so giving 5 hearts is reasonable. But, if your looking for a mascara that has volume, don't get this one because this only lengthens the lashes. It looks very natural when applied and I think this mascara will last me for a long time, considering the fact that its in a long tube. :]

4. VOLUME EXPRESS <3<3<3
This was the first Maybelline mascara that I bought so I really liked it because it did curl my lashes instantly without the curler. When I frequently used it, it got all flaky, it clumped even on a few strokes and it's a pain to take off. I also didn't like the smell of the mascara. But there are also good results because this mascara can make you look like you have the length and curl of a false lash, but look natural at the same time. :]. So I give it a fair 3 hearts because this is a good beginner's choice. :]

Well there you go! I hope I made sense in this review, and I hope you enjoy it. Btw, this is my opinion, if ever you have one of these mascaras, liked it, and you read that it wasn't nice, dont stop yourself using it because I said so. This is only based on my opinion and this is for the people who want to buy maybelline but need a preference [I don't understand this last sentence much but i hope you did. :))].

For any requests, or questions, please don't hesitate to put it on the comment box below, tell me what you think about this review, if it helped you or anything, or what's your favorite among these mascaras I showed, or just drop by to say hi. :DD. I hope you enjoy, OH! And stay tuned for the next one I'm gonna post the next mascara preview which will be all RIMMEL. Thank you for your time and take care!
