Banila Co. Color Correct CC Color Spot Concealer Review



Who loves concealer and depend on them as much as I do?  Raise your hands please!
I use them up so much I keep on purchasing them!   As much as I have my favorites on top of my head, I can't help but try different brands and share to you my thoughts on them.

Are you ready for another concealer review this time from Banila Co.?

Well, technically, the real concealer from the brand is called Real Stay Concealer which I reviewed HERE,  the brand may be into natural-looking makeup, I was a bit surprised as well that they offer CC line (Color Correction).  Don't worry though, this line is more on the subtle side, not the PRO shades wherein you need to have a bit of makeup artistry background to be able to pull it off.

This is subtle, and I like it for daily use!

It is packaged conveniently in a thin twist stick that is compact and easy to carry. If your skin concerns are isolated in a small area of your face, this would easily spot correct them in a whim. Simply dab on the trouble areas and blend away with your fingers.

Kanebo Luster Cream Foundation Review



The last time I used a cream foundation housed in a gorgeous bottle like this, is from Paul & Joe which is also a Japanese brand. 

How I love the Japanese cosmetics brand when it comes to packaging - how luxe they feel yet still remain the simplicity - just like how we like in our Beauty Regimen.

I recently tried the Kanebo Luster Cream Foundation.  
Let me tell you upfront right now, this foundation is expensive as compared to the usual drugstore or mid-range foundations I feature here, but... I don't mind paying premium when it comes to foundations especially if I plan to use this on my lovely brides for their super special day!

And maybe, just maybe, after you scrolled down and see my before and after photo, you'll understand why this earned raves amongst Beauty Enthusiasts worldwide.

Cloud Cosmetics Pepper Tint Gel Lip Tint Review



Happy Lippie Monday!
I have chanced upon the local brand Eden's Paradise way back and loved their lip product so much I created a special blog posts.

Fell in love with the shade Nude Teddy.  Then went ahead and tried their Lip Custard Cream in Winterberry.

When I heard about the change of brand from Eden's Paradise to Cloud Cosmetics, I am actually happy for the brand as packaging looks cute!  I am not an expert and hope a representative from Cloud Cosmetics would tell us the real deal but I felt the Pepper Tint Gel Lip Tint is actually different from the 2 products I used from Eden's Paradise.  I could be wrong, but I felt I'm right!  *laughs*

Weekend Food Trip at : Gyu Kaku



So I kind off fell in love with Restaurant Booking Apps like Booky and Eatigo.  I am so addicted in searching good deals most of the restaurant I dine in have at least 10% discount just because I'm #tita like that.  

One restaurant I always see and pass by whenever I am at the Shangri-la Plaza Mall is called Gyu Kaku.  I've read positive reviews from Food Bloggers so I finally cave in and booked for the family on a Sunday night.



Assorted Mushrooms with Butter
Php295.00



This dish may look like something you wouldn't order because who would pay almost Php300.00 just for mushrooms?  Ahm... ME!

Something New: Good Virtues Co.




When I met up with my Sampleroom Family last year for Thanksgiving Party, I always ended up feeling joyours and happy not because it was the season but because for the fact that I am around gorgeous women who share the love for beauty like I do.  

We chat and catch up about our personal lives at the same time, share new beauty finds!  From Japanese Rice Cooker to kitchen scrub that really works *laughs*  we went back to being a Beauty Blogger when we were each given a Good Virtues Co. set to try.

Let's go beyond how cute their packaging are, the brand is from Malaysia and all the products are free from mineral oil, SLES, ALES, parabens, synthetic colourants and are NOT tested on animals!  

That is the focus of Good Virtues Co. --- feel and look beautiful without sacrificing our values.

The brand has full product range from hair care to skincare, I got 4 products to try and I took a leap on their shampoo and conditioner first.
