AMW Reviews: Benefit Creaseless Cream in Holy Smokes!

Happy Monday dear friends!  I had a lovely, and very busy weekend but my internet connection went wonky that's why I wasn't able to share my usual Weekend Food Trip post!  Bear with me and I'll post about my yummy food experience this coming Sunday! :) 

The weather is cool so I guess it is the perfect time to be adventurous with our eye makeup!  I mean, less oiliness and greasiness on the lid area right?  

Still, I'm sure some of you (like me) aren't comfortable wearing eye makeup without an eye primer underneath, I mean, even on a cool weather, I'm used to having an "insurance" making sure I won't suffer any makeup booboos!  

One of my favorite insurance (for the eye) is Benefit's Creaseless Cream Shadow!  The added bonus of using this?  Well, I can definitely wear them alone!

On Spotlight:
Shade: Holy Smokes!

Benefit says ---
Our award-winning cream shadows are as crease-proof & budge-proof as ever! The 10 incredibly wearable shades (including original favorites r.s.v.p., birthday suit and skinny jeans) glide on easily and last all day long. It’s fresh & fabulous color for all.

You can use our cream shadow as an eyeliner using the hard angle definer brush. It glides on smooth for smudge-proof drama & definition.

Size: 4.5g, Net wt. 0.16 oz.

Thank You Nivea for the Eco-Friendly Packaging

Hands down, anyone who uses Nivea body lotions from their Intensive Moisture range to body firming and extra whitening would know how the brand delivers.  During my pregnancy days, I used the Intensive Moisture body milk and it helps that the lotion has a mild, relaxing scent!  It was okay-ed by my doctor by the way when I showed her the ingredients!

Recently, I received another set of Nivea but this time, I had a quizzical look as it looks a bit different!  And true enough, Beiersdorf (the maker of Nivea) tied up with industrial designer, Yves Behar, to create a new packaging design for the well-loved Nivea Body Lotion and Body Milk!

This is How I Do It: My Inglot Freedom Palette Look

Happy Friday!!! 

I am looking forward for this weekend but I am definitely NOT resting at all!  There's just so many things to do and there are times I pray I have 2 bodies!  *lol*  Do you feel the same?

Well, I'm busy preparing for a "trip" (will talk more about it when it's finalized) plus...moving out...and Baby Kyle's First Birthday Party!  Wish me luck!  I hope I can manage this!  

I recently blogged about my new Inglot Freedom Palette and I created a simple look using all the products included in my Freedom Palette.  Thanks to my dear reader Theresa for requesting a tutorial on this!  I hope this simple tutorial helps newbies out there! :D

My Inglot Freedom System Look

Initial Thoughts: Sleek I-Divine Vintage Romance Palette

Sleek Palettes have always been a hit for me!  I mean for it's price, you get 12 beautiful, very pigmented shades in a very "sleek" packaging!  Perfect for traveling and perfect for makeup artist like myself who likes to bring products that do not take up much space on my train case.

Recently, Sleek came up with a palette called Vintage Romance Palette which I find the palette to be so-me!  Well, I'm romantic and soon to be vintage!  *laughs*  February is coming up!  That's my birthday month!

Thanks Smile from Beautycornerph for sending this palette to me as Christmas Gift!  Who doesn't love makeup as gifts?  (except guys, well, okay, also girls who aren't into makeup!)

I immediately swatched the Vintage Romance Palette and played with some of the shades!  

As you check out the names of this palette, they include the romantic cities in the world which I find very unique and cute!  Not easy to remember, but still..cute! :D

AMW Reviews: Maybelline Lip Polish by ColorSensational

Happy Wednesday!

Okay, I am still sick with crazy, breathtaking (in a negative way) cough but I'm choosing to stay positive today!  There's no point sulking about my cough so I've decided to talk something I'm excited about!  Imagine, a lip product that works like a very pigmented lipstick yet as hydrating as a lip gloss!  Have you found such product?  If not, you're in luck!  I found one!  And the good news is, it won't burn your wallet! :D

Maybelline Lip Polish by Colorsensational

Even their packaging is amazing!  Check out how it looks like a lipstick bullet yet it is housed in a lip gloss packaging!  I even had Mr. AMW fooled! He thought this was housed in a lipstick-like packaging.
