NYX Wonder Stick: Highlight and Contour in Light/Medium

Hey hey hey, Today I’ll be reviewing my “on-the-go” highlight and contour product which makes my application way more easy and fast!

*drumrolls please* Ta-da!
Yep, it's the NYX Wonder Stick (Highlight& Contour) and I got the shade WS01 which is Light/Medium, retails at $12.
Let’s start with the product description first:
l         Available in 4 different shades: Deep, Light/Medium, Tan, Universal
l         Creamy finish that conceals highlights and contours with ease
l         Contains 4g of product

My thoughts after using it for a month:
l         Very creamy and easy to blend
l         Does not cake nor dries onto skin
l         Pigmentation is good enough for contouring and highlighting
l         Shade Light is so perfect for my skintone as it doesn’t look orangey or muddy just perfect for contouring which looks very natural
l         The only downside is it doesn’t last long, product wears off after 2-3 hours in a humid environment
l         You need to apply primer underneath to keep it longer

Overall Review:
I LURVE the NYX Wonder Stick, perfect for everyday use as it is an easy tool to highlight and contour on the go! Achieve natural contour effect in just minutes! Blending is super breezy, perfect for beginners! Definitely recommend you guys to get one! Or two~ =P
Thank you for the dropping by ^_~

Eden’s Paradise: Mineral Clay Powder and Blush Review

Hello there! I’m back on track now (Woo!~) Today, I’ll be sharing some makeup products from the trusted brand Eden’s Paradise.
I’ve been using Eden’s Paradise for quite sometime already and will continue to share my experience towards their amazing products.

To know more about Eden’s Paradise, click HERE

*click product name for more info*
Eden’s Paradise: Mineral Clay Powder (#1 Medium-Light)        PHP 349/20g
What it claims:
l         100% pure mineral powder that is best for sensitive and acne-prone skin (yours truly!)
l         Free from Talc, Paraben and Fragrance
l         Non-comedogenic and Hypoallergenic
l         Contains mica, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, iron oxide(from clays), magnesium sterate, ultramarin, kaolin and allantoin

My Reviews:
l         The powder is finely milled and extremely soft, smooth and silky
l         Very easy to blend and stays intact on skin
l         Can definitely use on its own (I did not apply anything except for the mineral clay powder)
l         Matte-Finish but doesn’t accentuate into lines and not drying at all
l         Low to medium coverage and doesn’t have any scent
l         Lasts for 5-6 hours and powder still looks intact

Eden’s Paradise: Mineral Blush in Pinkee                    PHP 349/30g
What it claims:
l         100% pure mineral blush made of clays, mica, iron oxides, zinc oxides, titanium dioxide, ultramarine pink, allantoin
l         Free from Paraben, Talc and Bismuth
l         Velvety Silky Finish

My Reviews:
l         The powder is finely milled and extremely soft, smooth and silky
l         Shade is in peachy pink
l         It is pigmented hence light stroke is enough to give a natural flush of pink cheeks
l         No specific scent and it does last for 3-4 hours

Overall Reviews on Eden’s Paradise Mineral Powder:
l         Generally I’m not a fan of loose powder as I find them too messy to apply
l         However, Eden’s Paradise mineral clay powder was able to give such airbrush finish whereas compact foundation wasn’t able to achieve
l         The Eden’s Paradise mineral blush also gives such a nice natural pink flush to cheeks whereas wearing it alone already compliment the entire face

Here’s me wearing only Eden’s Paradise mineral clay powder as base makeup,  Eden’s Paradise mineral blush on cheeks and some lipstick:

On The Mood: Dark Lippies

Hello there! It’s been awhile I updated this blog >_< Lately, I just had a lot of things on my mind hence wasn’t able to find time to keep this blog alive -____-“

But hey at least I get to do it now ^_^~ Today I’ll be sharing what’s on my mood and be starting with a series of “On The Mood” whereas I share things that I’ve been loving lately =)
On my early twenties, I love pastel color lippies such as pink, coral and orange as I think wearin’ those shades makes me feel bright, young and carefree.

But as years passed and the famous #KylieJenner Nudes lips steps in and I jumped into the bandwagon. I collected a lot of nude lipstick but the shade doesn’t suit me at all cuz’ I look pale and dead on it >_<”

The moment I finally realize that Nude shade isn’t really what I want hence I started getting into dark lippies with shades such as muave, brown, maroon and even purple! I think wearin’ dark shade lipstick really brings out my inner gothic and it really adds color and centrepoint on your face even though you don’t wear any makeup.

I’ll be sharing 3 of my favorite Dark Lipstick: *click on the product link for more info*
PS: I just woke up in the morning and didn’t apply makeup hence wasn’t able to exfoliate my lips thus the patchy and drying looking lips =(

1)      City Color Be Matte Lipstick in M21 Francesca
Shade: Dark plum color
Scent: None
Application: Glides smoothy
Lasting Power: Stays on for 1-2 hours
Cons: Transfer easily =(


2) MeNow KissProof Soft Lipstick in #011
Shade: Maroon Brown
Scent: None
Application: Glides easily
Lasting Power: Stays on for 4-5 hours
Pros: Does not transfer and smudge proof
*This is by far my favorite shades hence I took more photos >_<*

3) Ever Bilena Matte Lipstick in Vivid Violet
Shade: Purple
Scent: None
Application: Glides smoothly and perfectly
Lasting Power: Stays on for 2-3hours
Cons: Transfer easily =(
That’s it for my On the Mood: Dark Lippies episode and I hope you like it =)
Thank you again for dropping by ^_~
