Philippine Drugstore Brands.. my faves!

Hello Ladies!

i have come up with this Blog Post for you naming my favorite drugstore brands here in the Philippines. . 

1.Shawill Cosmetics- a Korean cosmetic line found in Watson's. i love this brand because their eyeshadows, blushes and liners are very pigmented.. i have some of their products and i am actually buying more.. i will review their products soon.. their prices range from 98-200php. However they released a new mineral make-up line w/c costs 300-500php.

2. Ever Bilena- I personally love their lipsticks, highly pigmented and some of the ones i own are actually long wearing. Price Range : 100-250php

3. NICHIDO- the cream blushes from this cosmetic brand i adore! also their liners, love! i only have a few products from them and i absolutely love all of them.. price range: 80-300php..

4. ELF- eyes lips face cosmetics just launched their counter here at around late last year, i love their brow gel, eyeprimer and lipstains.. also their blush and bronzer duo! (comment for a review)  i love this cosmetic line because they are cheap but the quality? amazing! i also love their brushes! Price range: 129-250php

However for high-end brands here in the Philippines (Cagayan de oro)
i personally love Maybelline and Revlon... :D

MY NEW FOUND FAVORITE PRESSED POWDER

Aside from my maybelline powder foundation and in2it bb brightening 2 way foundation 
(comment if you want a review of the products mentioned on top)


I found a new fave! it is the Beauty Treats Mineral Pressed Powder!


 this baby right here costed me 396php and can be found at any SM DEPARTMENT store . . i'm in the shade number 2 and i'm about a Mac NC 30. . this may appear bronzey or shimmery but it isn't that shimmery at all. It has a glowing effect on the skin and has this finely milled shimmers in it w/c is not that noticeable at all! :D


it creates that "visual blur" that covers your imperfections...  
 this is the powder with flash..


this is without flash.. it may appear dark in the pan but believe me it isn't in person. it has minerals in it which makes it better for your skin.. 


however it doesn't have that much coverage and it is only perfect to set your foundation or if you need to touch up during the day.. 


this can be used over foundation ( liquid, cream and powder) 


over all this powder is really good! :D

The Best Local Brand Lipsticks! :D

Hello Ladies!


Today's Review is all about these really cheap but high quality lipsticks from EVER BILENA.  Ever Bilena is a drugstore brand here in the Philippines and can be bought at any WATSONS or SM DEPARTMENT STORES. 


 The shades that i have are BURGUNDY SHINE (TOP) and BERRY ROSE (bottom).
These Lipsticks are very pigmented and long wearing, i can say that Burgundy Shine is a bit intimidating at first glance but it gives off this very beautiful plum color.It is very wearable even at day time and gives the lips just enough "UMPH" to make heads turn! :D


 the second shade that i have is BERRY ROSE (left) it is a very beautiful bright pink color, it is quite shocking but is very beautiful on the lips, with a neutral eye it can be the perfect accent for your look. I often pair this color with a neutral eye and just black liner (comment if you want a BLOGtutorial) :D 
 over-all these lipsticks are a must have in anyone's collection they are only 125php and they work like maybelline lipsticks which cost 395++ php. 
Very Smooth, highly Pigmented ..  these lipsticks are Love! :*
