4u2 DreamGirl Lovelight BB Powder REVIEW.

I saw a Blog from saytiocoartillero.blogspot.com that this BB powder is
A great product. So I decided to buy one, but on my first attempt it was
Out of stock. On my second attempt of buying it after two weeks time, my shade is not available so I ended up buying the darkest shade which is in no. 3.
But I never regret it.

FIRST IMPRESSION:
It was cute! The packaging is pink! (It looks like red in the picture, but then it's not it's like hot pink) Who doesn't love a pink item? So feminine.
The last shade available is shade no.3 and I said to myself it will not work on me because I have a kinda fair to medium skintone. But I ended up buying it.

PRODUCT TESTING:
No.1
It’s 9:00am when I put my personal foundation routine and I used this BB Powder for setting my concealer and foundation. I have a lunch appointment with my sister at The Podium at 12:00 noon. I rode a bus (standing!). It’s already 2pm when we finished our lunch then we go to her nearby condominium. When I face the mirror I was like “OMG! I didn’t retouch anything or using blotting sheets” and still, my make up is in Pristine condition.

REVIEW:

It’s very long lasting! The finish is not actually super matte. I think the shade no. 3 is perfect! I feel I’m not wearing any make up. Its super light weight. It’s perfect for setting your concealer or foundation! It does the job. SPF 15 is great for photography (Low SPF has a lower amount of titanium dioxide which makes our face moon face on pictures) for a price of PHP194? This powder is way better than maybelline.

FINAL VERDICT:
VALUE FOR MONEY: 10 STARS! 194PESOS!
CONSISTENCY: 10 STARS! I didn't even retouch once. It stays like 9 hours.
FINAL : 9.5 STARS! It’s 7 grams. Maybe it should be 9 or someting. And it has only  3 shades.

Honest Review of the ENCARA BB CREAM (sponsored)


Review:

This is an Honest review about the Encara BB cream. I'm using different BB cream, cheap and the expensive ones. But this BB cream stands out for me. even though it's kinda expensive (999php).
The consistency of this one is superb. Honestly, my mom and dad loves it. Yes, you heard it right. 
my dad loves it. and he's using it too, for face and other skin blemishes. For me, this is an all in one
BB cream. A concealer, foundation, moisturizer and skin whitening. The pigmentation is great.
I love it! the 999pesos is worth it. Why would you invest in different products, when you can use only one.
and this Encara is great for it. for the SPF25 it's great for high fashion photography.

FINAL VERDICT:

Price:   7 stars! even if it's super great, not all people can afford it.
Value for Money : 10 stars! Your 999 is worth it.
Consistency : 10 stars. It is very well pigmented.
FINAL : 8 Stars! As I said earlier even this product had done a great job of course not all people can 
afford it. but for me as a freelance pro-mua. this product is a MUST HAVE!


What do you need for BB CREAM? ENCARA DOES IT ALL!



SPF protection : CHECK! SPF25 , PROTECT FROM UV-RAYS.
Whitening: CHECK! It contains whitening agent to lighten skin.
Wrinkle Improvement: CHECK! Anti-aging and moisturizing effect.
Sebum Control: CHECK! sweat and water resistant,
Nourishment: CHECK! It's Hypoallergenic. It prevents and treats dry skin making it soft and smooth.
Coverage: CHECK! CHECK! It acts a foundation and concealer for concealing dark spots, under eye circles, baggage etc.





 Without flash. Creamy and super Pigmented
Packaging. It's like Hermes of BB cream.




My very own version of Runway/High Fashion Style LOOK.

Thanks MAC for a great Lipstick!
and to my DIY Gel Liner.

REVIEW:


I love the mary kay eyeshadows especially the Iris and other matte colors they are very well pigmented. but the satin and shimmer single eyeshadows are not that pigmented, but if you blend it well you will achieve a nice look. This is a single eyeshadow. Like MAC, Mary Kay has the Refillable Palette (PRO,MINI). You can put Foundation, Eyeshadow, and Blush.

FINAL VERDICT:


Value for Money : 8. It's kinda expensive it's 300pesos per color. but it's a great eyeshadow

FINAL : 8. :))

  MARY KAY EYE PRIMER (BASE POUR LES YEUX) REVIEW

I got this primer from my auntie, she gave me a lot of Mary Kay Products.

(If you like to buy Pre-order Mary Kay Products just contact me at ementi.couture@gmail.com / 0915-571-2261)

REVIEW:

I love this primer so much. since I don't have any other primers. I have tried the urban decay primer potion but it's not mine. And the Mary Kay primer is a GREAT dupe for it! Eye primer is used to prevent the eyeshadow from creasing, fall and feathering, and this product had a great job!


FINAL VERDICT:


Value for Money : 10 stars! I recently bought a new one!

Consistency : 9 stars. It is very well pigmented.
FINAL : 10 stars.

L'OREAL BARE NATURALE EYELINER REVIEW

I got this eyeliner from an ebay seller JNLINK 77 for only 118.75. (GREAT PRICE!)
I will be putting the link of the ebay seller down below. Thanks! :)

REVIEW :

I thought it was a cream eyeliner but it's not, it's a mineral eyeliner.
I have to use MAC's fix+ to use this so it will not crease, feather or fall.
It's very well pigmented. I love the brush!
The consistency of this product is great. the color speaks for itself "Defining Cocoa".
One bad thing about this is that if you put this product without a MAC fix+ or Eye Primer this will crease, feather and fall. 

FINAL VERDICT:

Value for Money : 10 stars! I got this for a super low price! I love ebay. :))
Consistency : 8 stars. It is very well pigmented.
FINAL : 5 stars. You have to use a MAC fix+ to use this which will cost you around 1.5k up or
else this will not work or look good on you (You can use it as an eye shadow like I do).
