iWhite Korea Make-up Base


I was looking for cheap facial wash at Watsons and saw this one along with my purchase from iWhite Korea. I tried it for a week now and I'm really loving it. Here is the description of the product...

iWHITE KOREA FACIAL WHITENING CREAM SPF15 with Mulberry and Panax Gensing Root Extracts Plus Titanium Dioxide.
SPF 15, 3 N 1
You can use this in 3 ways :
*Whitening  from mulberry root extract for an even-toned complexion. 
*Sunblock dual UV protection from Titanium Dioxide and ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate.
*Make-up Base, for a smooth, silky, matte finish. 
Enrichd with vitamins ACE and Panax Ginseng to protect skin from harsh environment and stress that can cause premature aging. iWHITE Skin Whitening Vita Facial Cream-This is the only facial cream that gives you 3 benifits for complete day care essential: 1-3 Months supply.


 This sachet is 10ML and cost around P20.00. Its also available in 65ML at around P169.00+ (philippine peso) something. So far no breakout. I love the scent, its non-oily, it has SPF, it acts as makeup base, and its affordable. This product is worth checking out.

Too Faced Eye Shadow Insurance Review

As I was searching for eye product to combat my oily eyelids I stumbled upon this one on You Tube. A lot of makeup gurus are raving about this. I've been torn in getting this between the UDPP (Urban Decay Primer Potion) - but this one by far had won me.

Pros:
- Combat my oily eyelids
- Blendability - no problem in blending
- No fading, No creasing, no melting, no blurring (a real full-coverage insurance policy indeed)
- Make cheap eyeshadow look vibrant
- Staying power is awesome
- Nice packaging - you can all use up the product
- You only need a small pea size to cover your entire eyelid
- Silicon-based eyeshadow primer - won't alter your eyeshadow shade

Cons:
- Retails around $17 USD
- Availability - I'm not sure if this is available in the market

Considering how awesome my Eye makeup now looks, its definitely worth checking out.

Monistat Chafing Relief Powder Gel Review

After watching so many glowing reviews on this on You Tube, I decided to try this product for my sensitive combination skin. I used it primarily under my liquid foundation. It made my skin smooth, cling to my foundation, made my foundation last longer and did not break me out. Overall, I'm loving this. This is my HG for face primer.

I definitely recommend this, it's worth checking out. This is a great option for someone who doesn't want to buy a higher end primer. It works just as well as the expensive brands if I compared it to Laura Mercier Foundation Primer. The tube is very convenient and easy to apply. A little goes a LONG way. And this retails around P500+ up (peso).

My small collection of primers...

Laura Mercier Foundation Primer - keep forgetting to use this one :-(
Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel - the most abuse one
Maybelline Whitestay UV Base SPF 35 in Lavender - for brightening effect and acts as SPF
Cosmedicine Primary Care SPF 20 - when I'm feeling oily and need to skip my SPF
