Bourjois Ambre D'or Blush

LOVE IT! This shade looks gorgeous! It gives me a healthy warm glow with golden shimmer. Glistening 
peachy bronze color with fine gold shimmers. Its divine! Gives me that super fresh sunkissed glow. Staying power is awesome!



However, the packaging sucks because the brush is really delicate and you literally have to scrape at the blush to get the amount needed. Although for application I'm using my stippling brush, this powder is very pigmented. I apply this with a light hand to give me that perfect glow. I love the compact size which is also comes with a mirror. Its very handy. 
This product is really worth checking out... 

Bourjois Liner Clubbbing Eyeliner


Love this eyeliner. The best liquid eyeliner I have ever used! It had a super skinny brush, and it also goes on incredibly pigmented! I always prefer the brush tipped applicator it gives me a precise line, I can manipulate the thickness of the line according to my liking.

I have this in absolute black. I love the colour and that it's really budge-proof although I haven't tried this one on water. As for the drying time, it takes a minute or two to dry, but the staying power is really great. This washes off easily with cleansing oil. Highly Recommended.

Bourjois Bronzing Powder in #52 Review


My HG bronzer! I totally heart BOURJOIS!

It's a gorgeous shade of brown with just a touch gold glimmer.I sometimes use this as a blush. ;-) This powder has a soft texture, buildable and blendable. This shade is a natural brown w/ subtle shimmer which gives you the most natural sunkissed look (this is not at all orange).

I really love the packaging, it looks like a chocolate bar and it smells like one too! I love using this with my kabuki brush and put it on my cheeks, shoulders, and decolletage. I often used this on day time. This retails around 7 GBP in UK and $18 USD in the US. Luckily I got two of these from a swap.

As for purchasing, definitely will start looking, if this runs out. This product is worth checking out.

Bourjois Lune D'or Blush Review


I adore this blush it's very lovely. So let me start my review on the positive note. This blush is a baked texture, it's highly pigmented, finely milled, and the powder is rose scented. The powder is blendable and buildable. This shade is in peachy pink shade with very fine gold shimmer that gives me the prettiest, most delicate glow. I always get compliments wearing this blush. I think anyone can pull this color of.

As for the con side, this product is not available here in the Philippines. This blush is only 2.5 g net wt. 0.08 oz and retails at $14 in the US. It's definitely a tiny pot, with mirror and small blush brush inside. I find it quiet expensive taking note that is only a drugstore brand. However the packaging comes in handy for occasional touch ups because you can slip it in your purse.

On the final note this item is still worth checking out because taking into consideration the pigmentation, shade, blendability, and glow effect - that $14 cost is worth it.



Bourjois Gold Bronzing Powder # 54 Review


This is an absolutely irresistable bronzer filled with cluster of sunshine with a yummy chocolate scent. This bronzer will give you that shimmer with subtle gold reflection. The powder is ultra soft, it is blendable and buildable. Its quiet scary to look at but once you put it on you'll be melting with pleasure.

For application, I love using my kabuki brush and use this on my cheeks, shoulder, and decolletage. My skin look so tempting after putting this on. I often use this at night time, it never fails to give me that Goddess glow. I love the packaging, I love the smell, I love Bourjois! ;-) Its a shame that this brand is not available here in the Philippines. This retails around 7 GBP, in UK. Luckily I got it from a swap from a friend in UK.

This product is worth checking out...

Bourjois Pastel Teint Review

Another Bourjois finds! Pastel Teint in Rose Plaisir , a pretty peachy-pink shade with a sheer veil of shimmer. This shade flatters all complexions. The shimmer is very subtle and gives you that radiant glow. I often use this to set my liquid foundation on. I'm using my powder brush for application and find the powder very blendable and buildable. I also tried using this as blush and still turn out good.

This pressed powder have a perfumed scent to it, not over powering just a nice springy scent. After your application the smell diffuses so its no big deal. This weight around 15g Net Wt or 0.5 oz. And retails around $20 - $35 USD in the US. I got mine from an eBay seller in UK and paid for this at 7 GBP inclusive of shipment.

Love, love, love this product, worth checking out...

Bronzer Collection


My small collection of bronzer for my "tanning mood"... ;-) some are from swaps, eBay and pasalubong... My favourite from these collection are NARS Multiple in Palm Beach and Bourjois... I’m having a hard time picking out which one is the best because their both pretty on their own.



Lip and Cheek Stain Collection


My Collection :

Benetint by BeneFit

Bourjois Rouge Hi-tech ( I forgot the shade)

Mistine Cindy



I love the natural makeup look and this tint is great for that. I used it on my lips for a natural rosy lip look and top it of with lip balm or gloss. It makes me look alive. I also use it as a cheek stain and it gives me a very nice natural flushed look, like the kind you get after a brisk walk or run.


Among the three tints I own, my favourite would be Benetint by BeneFit. I love this product because it's extremely long lasting and natural looking. It's a bit pricey for a tint but this stuff will last you a very long time. A little goes a long way with this.


Cheaper alternatives worth trying out:


Nichido Cheek Stain - P128.00 + (peso) – (available in SM and other leading department stores)

Mistine Cindy Face and Lip Tint - P150.00 + (peso) – ( available in SM and other leading department stores)
