EYEBROW KIT

i am addict when it comes to eyebrow make-ups because my brows are just too hard to handle. so I've been trying these but i guess my brows are just too sparse that the powder just wouldn't work for me. can anyone tell me how? the powder looks so unnatural on my bare skin(sparse area) and it wears off in no time. so sad huh?

i know they're excellent according to a lot of reviews that's why I'm still hoping that someday somehow I'll be able to pull it off. HELP!

PAPER SOAP

this was given to me by my friend and it's very useful. it is cute and smells really good.  it comes in handy when you need to wash your hands. all you need to do is take a petal and you can now wash you hands.

SUNBLOCK! coz i'm afraid of the sun LOL

Sunblock is a must for me because of 3 reasons. 1st, i have freckles and they're getting more and more each day.. i hate it so much! 2nd, i just don't like to see myself in the mirror whenever my is dark.  3rd, for health purposes and prevention of premature aging.so here's my sunblocks..

Heliocare is my HG facial sunblock.. its a little expensive but it does the work for me. it comes with a beige colored gel and i can wear it under my make up. i wear this whenever i stay under the sun for too long. i never had break outs with this product. it's not heavy even if its spf90. this is made especially for those who have acne-prone and oily skin. love this!
Nivea Sun Immediate Sun Protection is great for summer outing! i use this on my face whenever i go to the beach because it has spf50 and it is water resistant. and i love the idea that there's no need to wait for 20minutes with this product. just apply this all over your face and you're good to go!

Neutrogena ultra sheer spf50 is what i use most of the time whenever I'm going outdoors because it can be used as a make up base as well. Basically this is my everyday sunblock.
Nivea Refreshing milk spf 30 is what i use on my face when I'm staying home because it has the minimum spf out of all my sunblocks.
And finally, my nivea sun immediate sun protection spf30 for my body. i don't know it its just me.. but I'm liking the feel of it. i like its stickiness somehow. i feel like its providing me a dewy finish on my skin. i don't know.. whatever! hehe..

L'OCCITANE Lipgloss

i love this lip gloss. it was given to me by my best friend. it smells like vanilla and honey combined. this lipgloss is amazing. it wont get off of my lips. i tried putting this on before going to bed and i woke up with it still on. it has a slightly sticky and thick consistency but it doesn't matter. it provides me the long lasting shine  and moisturizes my lips at the same time. it has Shea butter by the way. love it!

TOO FACED brow-nie eyebrow pencil in Blonde-y

This is my HG eyebrow pencil! i can never go wrong with it. it's creamy, which i prefer because I've got a heavy hand in applying eyebrow pencils. It looks like a very light brown in pencil and swatches but to my eyebrows it looks exactly like my brow color(i have super fine, messy, sparse eyebrows by the way). it doesn't look fake, it glides on smoothly, and it doesn't wear off easily. i like a natural looking full brows. i never liked an eyebrow that looks like a thick and harsh line drawn into a face. Photos below.

 I love the packaging. it comes with a mirror and it's tiny and cute that will fit even in your jeans pocket without being uncomfortable. But somehow i don't find them pigmented. Its gold flecks and shimmers are very intense which is awesome because it adds vibrancy especially in the pictures or say when you are out with your friends to go clubbin'. But i don't think this will work to someone with large pores because the shimmers will only enhance visible pores. Peach Girl is a peachy pink color with gold flecks in it. i wear this night and day. Pink Wink is a light pink blush with shimmers. i actually use this to highlight my cheekbones because its very shimmery that its pink color has somewhat became just an undertone to the shimmers. i like them but i don't love them. I'm not a blush person actually because i haven't found my HG yet.

REVLON SUPERLUSTROUS LIPSTICKS

So i have 3 superlustrous lipsticks which i loooveee...because they are very pigmented. i love them! i am currently obsessed with red or should i say bold lipsticks. i love Strawberry Suede the most because its matte which suits my lips the best. Siren is a cute orange color that is totally wearable and buildable. Fire & Ice is a very cute red lipstick. And Strawberry Suede is kinda like in between of Siren and Fire & Ice because of its corally red color. pictures and swatches below.
