My halloween look 2014

Since halloween is just around the corner I wanted to do a makeup look but without spending a lot. I'm not much into spending on costumes. So I got inspired by my animal headbands that have been with me forever and thought hey, I'll do something with them and pi them to use. I have no idea what it is with my headband collection, i seem to have a lot and they all involve having ears on them.
All I used were my make ups at home so I didn't really spend on anything haha talk about being resourceful huh
Here's my tiger look-

This headband was with me since college and I got it from one of the games In ust. 

Here's my leopard one-


This leopard one I've had for a year now. I got it last year when my friends and I celebrated halloween at a theme park in pasay city. I think this was just around 150 pesos and we wore wigs with it pretending to be Josie and the pussy cats lol


Items used- 
Nyx smokey palette
Nichido eyeliner
Maybelline mineral blush
Saizen eyebrow pencil
Revlon color stay foundation 

I hope I was able to give you ideas on what to be for halloween without spending a lot. 
I've always loved this time of the year because it makes me feel like I have the right to be whatever I want to be just for a day hehe we can get away with it, for it is halloween! 


Till my next blog..

Prime prime time

These are the only two primers i use because they're the only ones that are affordable (let's get real) and work well on my oily skin+pores. 
The maybelline baby skin pore eraser is my go to primer when I am in need of a good long lasting settled finish. It does a good job. upon application you will see the pores are deminished at once.
The quick FX on the other hand is the one i bring around with me when i travel. It has a good amount in it, I've used it more than 5x already and it's still pretty full. 
They give the same matte effect when applying but I must say the maybelline lasts longer. With the quick fx it doesn't stay matte for more than 2hrs I get oily and start blotting after. But hey it's less than 100 pesos so why complain hehe when on a budget i love these two. And eyre easily available at any watsons branch. 


As you all may already know I am oily skin and these two work pretty well with my issues, large pores, oily skin and pimple scars. Who wouldn't want a little help with concealing those huh 👍

Anyways, that's all for now. I'll be back with more make up reviews soon.

My favorite concealers

I have tried a lot of concealers in the past years and now I believe I've found what I'll be sticking to. 
I love this nyx above and beyond concealer specially on the under eyes. It does not crease as far as I've observed. It also doesn't have a fragrance which I love. It's got the right creaminess and it glides on well on the skin. it's not cakey and doesn't build up on your wrinkles, at least for me it didn't. 
I also love the tea tree concealer of the body shop for concealing my pimples when it that's time of the month and treating them at the same time. You won't smell the tea tree on the concealer at all and you don't have to worry about break outs hehe this sometimes tends to build up on wrinkles because it can be a bit matte but you can always smooth it out.
These two concealers really help me a lot, I have oily skin and I need something that lasts for at least 8hrs. The staying power of these two are pretty good.


I must say I am really impressed with these two. 
I just reciently purchased the nyx one and loving it so far. 
As for the body shop concealer this was my second buy I really love it.

Hope you guys enjoyed my reviews.

Wet and wild sugar plum fairy

Hi guys! Today I'm giving my first impression on this lipstick from wet and wild in the shade sugar plum fairy. 
I got this from a bazaar in centris beauty fair a few days ago. 
Here's what it looks like-

Well fisrt of all, i was impressed with how pigmented these lipsticks are and how affordable it is to everyone, for just 190 pesos it's such a good buy. 

I can't say anything negative about this lippie i super love the finish, the lasting power and the price! 

I wore it the whole day and I had to retouch only once. I had it on approximately 8-10hrs. 
Honestly speaking i Didn't expect it to last after I ate but hey there was still a lot left on my lips. There was a tint like stain so it didn't really completely disappear. It also does not bleed on the outside of your life. It did not dry my lips after use. 
Like i said two thumbs up on the pigmentation and lasting formula. 
I think I'll be purchasing more shades of these since I was so impressed with this one.
Hope you all like my short review on the lippie. More coming soon!
