Photoescape Reviews: Ever Bilena BB Cream.

Image
Hey guys! I'm back with a review!  This time it will be for another BB cream!  I am still not over this trend so please forgive me.  Also a bit of a disclaimer: All things mentioned in this blog is from my personal experience. This was given to me by the brand to be reviewed but I was not influenced in anyway possible.  Ok let's begin my babies!  Just like other BB creams Ever Bilena's BB cream promises the same.  I have reviewed both on a video on my youtube channel. I will be highlighting only the anti wrinkle BB cream in this blog post.  This bb cream in particular has an ivory shade which fits my skin actually. Although oriental has a more natural fit on my skin it tends to be a little too light for my liking. Natural has more coverage for me which is what I like.  without flash with flash I noticed though that this BB cream instantly brightens my skin which is great. And with the price of...

Budget friendly BB cream: EB Advance BB Cream!

Image
I remember when I would anticipate going back to school..  The long lines to register my classes,  The sweltering heat of the day,  The not so pretty faces of the other students with their melted make up.. Ahhh good times, good times.  But with that being said I was actually surprised that the school year is about to begin again. And here is one product I would recommend for those that are on a budget: EB Advance BB Cream!  Being a student myself, I've experience being on a hurry, staying up late making that dreaded term paper and also caring less about what I look like in school sometimes. But if you think about it if you didn't really fix yourself a little bit it won't leave a great impressions to those that you want to.  Ever Bilena BB cream will help you with that! For the student on a tight budget this is perfect!  Priced at 195php it gives a very flawless finish to the face. It comes in 2 shades: Natural a...

February 2013 Favorites

Hello again!  I haven't been updating my favorites in time and it really sucks BIG TIME but I hope you girls understand..  So its not time of the month again for me to share my favorite stuff from last February.

Product Review: Maybelline Clear Smooth BB stick

Image
Hello ladies! Happy Thursday! My goodness its already Thursday again.. I have a lot of posts to share to you girls but since internet at home is not cooperating that well I have to settle blogging at work for now. Thank goodness our company allows me to do my pride and joy (you read that right!).  On today's post I will be sharing to you my review about my latest BB cream: Maybelline's BB stick!  If you remember I also did a review on the first Maybelline BB cream that they offered. That BB cream was a little too oily for my skin since it contains glycerine and other substances that can make my skin produce more oil. I think other users of that BB cream had forwarded it to the company that the company made a separate one for those with combination- oily skin.  without flash I was really thankful with that because I do love their BB cream because the shade is really close to my pale skin. Sometimes having pale skin is a bad thing because its a little...

Product Review: Avon Simply Pretty BB Cream

Image
Happy Monday ladies! I am back with another post for today.   This week will be review week which means I will be featuring some products on my blog that is either a winner or not so much in my experience. On today's product review it will be about Avon's Simply Pretty BB Cream. I know that BB creams are all over the place and I have just started going over some, but its definitely not too late to check them out. I have actually seen this one on last month's Avon catalogue and told myself why not try it right? So I did and I didn't really put any high expectations on this one so my heart won't break if it doesn't work out.

June 2012 Favorites

Image
Hello ladies! On today's post it will be about June 2012 favorites! Yey! It is already July and I can't believe it. I only had a small amount of favorites since I have been rotating using all my make up. In terms of skin care and also body care its pretty much the same. Quite honestly I'm the type of girl that sticks by using the same body wash up until it ran out. I simply don't like to hoard those stuff since there is only little space in my vanity :( Well lets start this blog shall we? I'll start first with the non-make up/skincare/body care products. As of the moment I have been obsessed with Korean food and I just found this through my office mate. I have been loving vietnamese rice paper sauce and rice paper. Apparently this is called won ssam. I don't know if this is legit but if its spicy I'm all over it. I don't care if my nose runs or I turn crimson red but if its spicy I will eat it. I've also been loving fermented soy bea...

Product Review: Maybelline bb cream

Image
I have been using this BB cream for a month now and these are just some of the things I have noticed and experienced on it. I can actually say that I am a total beginner with BB creams and this is the first BB cream that I've tried. I've already read and seen reviews about this product before and its actually a mix of rants and raves.

Kpop Fridays: Korean Make up Routine

Image
Have you ever wondered how Korean girls' skin   look so good that you would think they don't have make up on? That's where you are wrong sister! They do have make up on! :)) Its all in proper skin care and also make up application!  I got these information partly from Google and also my Korean students. I also learned that it takes them approximately 20 minutes to apply make up. My first reaction was "Huwaaat!?!" but its really true. According to one of my students, one thing to achieve that "no make up look" for them is to simply take your time in applying your make up and also have a good base. Here is the usual method that they do in applying make up   Preparation: Primer + make-up base -- This is to correct your skin tone  + Foundation (or BB cream) + Conceal imperfection -- concealer (but if you have applied BB Cream I think you can skip this step) + Setting: Set and fix foundation with powder or pact -- By the way pact is a shorter term fo...
