Issy & Co Look

 

I read, watched and personally heard people rave about Issy & Co and after owning my first Issy & Co set, I finally understood why.

Just look at the aesthetic, looks so expensive, classy and visually addictive.  I just want to stare at their makeup for hours!  But the true test came after using these for months!  I've done a quick first try and all over makeup look but at the back end, I have been using these products on a daily basis and it wasn't as hard as before when we were on lockdown, I can literally wear them whenever I drive my son to and from school and test them out under strong heat and humidity.



I will be posting the products I like and used a lot one by one with more in-depth review but as early as now, I am telling you guys how much of a fan I am to this local brand.  

These are some of the Issy & Co. items I've used for this full face look ----

Elizabeth Arden Eye care Review

 

When I finished my Helix-D Eye Serum , I was a bit at a lot for a moment as I don't know which eye product I would use next.  Will it be better than Helix-D?  Will it work just as good?  As much as I'd love to stick on repurchasing Helix D, I am a Beauty Product reviewer and I need to test out products out in the market for YOU guys and for MYSELF --- I just want to try new products!  *lol*

Not that I am using you guys as an excuse but this is a job I gave to myself even without YOU hiring me!  I am very hardworking like that *winks*


Elizabeth Arden Advanced Ceramide Capsules Daily Youth Restoring Eye Serum review

Elizabeth Arden Advanced Ceramide Capsules
 Daily Youth Restoring Eye Serum
Php3,910.00
Available at LAZMALL

A lot of action from a little twist.
NEW Advanced Ceramide Capsules Daily Youth Restoring Eye Serum visibly firms and reduces the look of crow’s feet and puffiness1 for eyes that look younger and brighter.


AMW says ---
  • Easy to bring for travel - no spillage.
  • Easy twist top making it easy to get the right amount of "serum" for both eyes every single time.
  • Hydrates eye in an instant.
  • Crows feet visibly reduced (as I have dry undereye area)
  • Concealer appears better whenever I use this.
  • A bit greasy at first application, it sits for a couple of minutes before it gets completely absorbed.
  • This product appears to work more on the hydration area rather than reduction of eye puffiness and undereye circles.  I felt the Cream needs to work hand in hand with this serum.

GRWM: Event Makeup Look in 30 Minutes Less

 


Hi everyone! 
Gosh, it is almost a month that I last updated here!  Where did the SUMMER VACATION went?


If you follow me on Instagram #ShamelessPlug , you know that my son had his first Holy Communion (for Roman Catholics) and did you know that kids had to attend 3 days Catechism classes while parents need a 2-3 hours session separately? 

We also had a reconciliation day so that covers the whole week of August!  Aside from that, I managed to grab a couple of PR Consultancy opportunities so that kept me super busy as well.  

Anyway, before I go any further about my personal stories, you are probably here for the Get Ready with Me look in 30 minutes less!  Now that you know my schedule, you know that 30minutes is the only available period of time for full face makeup look.

When in rush, it helps to use a pop of color on lips like RED or Deep Burgundy.  A loud lip statement would make your overall look unique.  It looked like you spent a lot of time doing your makeup but in reality, you just did a bit of lipstick swiping!
