Product Review : ELF Bronzers

E.L.F. Golden & Warm Bronzer


I have been on the search for the perfect bronzer for me and for my boyfriend. He needs it for he's photoshoot. So anyway we decided to buy the ELF Golden & Warm Bronzer. 


 
Retail Price : P249.50

ELF  Says : Create a healthy looking glow all year round! The sheer soft powders provide the perfect hue of color. Blend all 4 colors together to achieve a blend of perfection or choose your favorite color or colors to mix, match and blend.

Here are the swatches:

Golden Bronzer

Warm Bronzer

At first i was skeptical buying these bronzers because it has shimmers but the saleslady told us that when its applied its not that shimmery and so we ended up buying it. But when I tried the Warm Bronzer at home i can see the gold shimmers on my face even if i keep on blending it. However, the Golden Bronzer is amazing because i use it as a highlighter and it does the job so well. 

Will i purchase these again? I think not kasi gusto ko yung matte na bronzer especially for contouring. At dahil ayoko naman siyang gamitin as bronzer ginawa ko nalang siyang eyeshadow. Hehehe. :) Mas bet ko na siya nung ginamit ko na siya as an eyeshadow.  Anyway i'm still on the search for that perfect matte bronzer. If you have any recommendations of a good bronzer please comment down below. 

Till next time! Keep on smiling and Stay pretty.. :)

Summer Neon Orange Nails!! >.<


Since it's already summer here in the Philippines I want to bring the summer into my nails. :) I've been on the search for that perfect summery nail color. So i went to Watsons to look at their nail polish corner and i stumble upon this amazing neon orange color that i fell inlove with immediately.
 (Sorry for the blurry pics) Sweet Cherry nail polish I got the neon orange but they have a lot of amazing shades to choose from
 And the best part?? It only cost 15.75 pesos. :) Super affordable!!
 i SUPER DUPER love it!!

PRO:
  • It's super affordable
  • Amazing color
  • Super shiny that i didn't have to put on a colorless/top coat
  • It last on my nails for about a week or 2
CON:
  • It's not pigmented so i have to put like 3 coats to make the color come out more
I super love the color of this nail polish in fact i will buy other shades from this brand. Do i recommend this brand?? YES!! It just proves that you don't have to buy expensive nail polish for great nail colors. :)

E.L.F Lip Stain


Hi ladies! So I'm back again with a new make-up product to make a review about. Yehey!. :) So let's get started!.  I always watch make-up tutorials/make-up reviews on Youtube. And i saw Purpleheiress make a review about ELF's Lip Stain and it got me curious so I try the product.

 I bought it at SM Southmall Department Store for 249.75 pesos. I got the shade in Birthday Suit.
 As you can see i already use the gloss
 The applicator

In my honest opinion i don't like it. After i put on the stain and let it dry for a while it made my lips look super chapped and dry. So i try to put on the gloss, at first it look much better but after a while i notice that the gloss make the lip stain gather on the sides of my upper and lower lips.

Pro:
Besides that it already comes with a stain and the gloss I don't know what more to put on the pro.

Con:
  •  I don't like the smell of the stain and gloss
  • I find the gloss a little bit sticky
  • I don't like the outcome after i put it on my lips. 
Will i purchase it again?? I think not. I'm a BIG BIG fan of the ELF cosmetic line but i was disappointed on their Lip Stain.

Maybelline Clear Smooth BB Cream



Matagal ko ng gustong sumubok ng BB Cream lalo pa't sikat na sikat ito ngayon.
But i can't decide which brand i will purchase because lets face it some of them are pricey. And I'm only a student, so i don't have that much money to spend on high end make-ups. So as i was strolling the mall with my mom, I came across the stall of the Maybelline and something caught my eye. It was the Maybelline Clear Smooth BB Cream 8-in-1 Skin Transformer. And guess what, it only cost 249 pesos!. 


It looks like this. And the shade that i got was in natural because the fresh one is much lighter.
 
Clear Smooth BB Cream is a multi-benefit product that combines the benefits of skin care, make-up, and sun block in a cream. It contains 8 healthy minerals that moisturize and protect skin while giving flawless, natural coverage.
 Sorry for the blurry pics. I used my phone when i took the photos.

Pro's:

  • It is very affordable at 249 pesos
  • Has a SPF 26
  • Conceals my flaws and imperfections
  • It instantly covers my dark spots without even using a concealer
  • Doesn't have a pungent smell at all

Con's:

 I actually don't have a con's on this product. 

Do i like this product?. No, because I LOVE IT!!!. Hehehe. I recommend this product for students like me that is looking for a good BB Cream but on a tight budget. The coverage of this product is really really good. Will i re-purchase this again?. Of course! :)
