When I arrived home, I was so excited to see the products. So, I opened them and tested them out. These are my first eyeshadow make-up and also maybe my second lip balm. I really kind of spent a lot and after buying all of these I felt my heart breaking somehow. I just don't know how to spent my money in a frugal way. :(
Anyway, since Christmas is coming, I wanted to buy a few make-up and kind of want to learn how to apply them and see if I can do it. I only apply make-up occasionally so, yeah, here are the prodcuts:
1. Eyeshadow from The Face Shop
I really like the colors. I was looking for a Christmasy type of color and there were a lot of options in The Face Shop. The Green and (obviously) the Gold are too glittery though. If you are not careful in applying your eyeshadow, you could get glitter all over your face. It's nice to blow your eyeshadow brush that has the powder of this first before applying it.
2. Lip Balm from Burt's Bees in Beauty Bar
Burt's Bees is a little too pricey for me but, I wanted to try it since I saw a LOT of reviews about this product.
What can I say? I love it! It really gives your lips a nice, moisturised feeling and your lips don't doesn't dry or crack up unlike the other products I am using. The color isn't that really showy and that is perfect for everyday use.
3. Lipstick/Lip balm? in Muji
Muji's lipstick? I only understand the 'SPF' so, I just wanted to see if it's nice.
It made my lips very dry. I am not sure if it's matte. My lips does not really like matte lipsticks. Actually, it does not really want any lipstick at all. But, anyway, I placed a lip balm on my first then I applied this and it was better that way. :))
4. Gel Liner in The Face Shop
Another product from Face Shop. It is an eyeliner that has a very nice color. It can give emphasis to your eyes. As you can see in the middle picture, it also has a smudge..-er (?) in it's end.
I was SO excited to use this product and I was so excited to see what effect it would bring to the eyes. Sadly, when I opened the cover, the tip fell off. You can't bring the gel up again nor can you sharpen it. I was like, "What the..? How could this even happen?!" I tried placing the tip back. It did stay put at the tip but whenever I apply it, it just falls off. I was just SO frustrated I mean, I just bought this! For, like, P350.00? :'( So, in short, the tip can be pretty sensitive.
5. Ring in Powerplant (I forgot the name of the Shop)
This has got to be the best item for this month (my boyfriend bought it for me actually because I have no cash in hand. Teehee). It is simple but so elegant. <3 Isn't it lovely? :) We bought this in Powerplant Rockwell for only P200.00. I actually wear it every single day even when I am at home. That is how I love this ring!
This is it for today! :) I'll post the "Rise of the Guardian" review in awhile. :)
