Benefit Microfilling Brow Pen Review

 

Hi AMW Friends.  I have been in very good relationship with Benefit Cosmetics as a brand even way before they arrived in the Philippines.  I remembered purchasing from online shops Benefit Box O’ Powders to Concealers and finally brow products when they were readily available locally.

Aside from great packaging and cute concepts, I can say, I love most of their product releases.  There are a few that I can let go - just because they don’t work for my skin type, but I heavily rely on professionally (referring to Benefit’s POREfessional!).

But one product line from the brand I heavily rely on for personal use are their brow products.  I memorize all Benefit Brow products like the back of my hand!  I know every single releases and I know exactly how to use them even with my eyes close - nah, I am just exaggerating :P  

You are probably saying: “What?? Another release?  I have so many brow products I don’t need another one!”

TRUE and FALSE.

TRUE, if your current brow set works just as fine.

FALSE, if you are currently using one but wanted something more!

Just like me, I can never use 1 brow product and say it is enough!  I have to use at least 2, sometimes 3!  And the new Benefit Microfilling Brow Pen is really part of my makeup essentials!  (My brow gap says so!)

Benefit says —-

The microbladed look made easy! Brow Microfilling Pen creates the illusion of natural brow hair with 3 ultra-fine lines in a single stroke. It's designed to blend in with existing hairs, fill in gaps AND make brows appear where before there were none. The easy-to-apply formula of this brow pen looks natural and is waterproof*, smudge-proof and longwearing, creating a microbladed effect that lasts for 24 hours*. No pain, no commitment, just great brows!

• Creates a 24-hour* Microbladed Effect
• 3-prong tip with 3 different lengths mimics natural brow hair
• Comes in 4 versatile shades

IMAGIC Pro New Releases - Firsty Try

 

IMagic Pro is a good makeup brand perfect for budding Make Up artists or make up enthusiasts in general.  After my love affair with their 16-eyeshadow palette, I have high hopes on these new products and they did not fail so far!

Here’s a quick unboxing and swatch video.  You can see how pigmented some of these products are!

My top picks so far: IMAGIC Pro Illuminator Powder - this is quite wild on pan but very natural and subtle looking upon swatching.

My next shock would be their eyeliner pencil, they are so pigmented you get a full DARK black shade in a  single swipe.  And truthfully, after this swatchfest, I cannot wipe it off my  hand for hours!

Lastly, I am loving their lipliner pencils.  The shade choices area pretty good too!

All these promising productxs from IMAGIC PH can be purchased locally at beautymnl.com

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

 

White Republic Teeth Whitening Kit Review

 

Good day AMW Friends!

Today I will be reviewing something super exciting.  Something I have been looking forward to try since these types of products are available in the market - All-in-one at home teeth whitening kit!

A little bit of a backstory I am a coffee drinker - literally drink 3-4 cups of coffee a day!  With that said, my teeth is not in the best condition.  I knoew I had to do someting early last year so I started booking teeth whitening services at my trusted clinic.  I had 1 session, it was really great as I can see how drastically my teeth whitened!  Unfortunately, the scheduled 2nd session did not push through because of COVID-19 lockdown.

White Republic Teeth Whitening kit came right in time!  According to the brand, this kit can help brighten and whiten my teeth safely without the sensitivity and can remove teeth stains effectively.  

The White Republic Kit

(White-Republic.com)

Php3,199.00

Designed to deliver results in less than 10 days.  Whiten your teeth with the nost effective system.

Here are simple steps how I use the kit!

• Brush my teeth and rinse well with water.  I make sure to do this after every brush and gargle well.
• Picking a pen, twist the bottom and apply the gel straight on teeth.  Make sure your mouth is dry and free from saliva.
• Once all my teeth (that is visible whenever I smile) are painted with White Republic pen, I get the clean mouth try and plug it on my phone (or any USB port).

NEW! K-Palette 1Day Tattoo Procast The Eyeliner

I love my K-Palette 1Day Tattoo Liquid Eyeliner so much I have used almost all their “new and newer and newest” versions.

All of them works super well!  I don’t even understand why they keep on improving, I mean, improvement will always be good but I am just amazed how Japanese technology is adamant even on makeup products!

K-Palette recently launched their Procast The Eyeliner under their 1Day Tattoo Liquid Eyeliner line.  

Aside from the change in packaging, expect a sharper tip for the Procast line.  They also come with special coating film that sticks to the skin firmly and moves freely with facial muscles - come to think of it, I tend to have my previous ones disappears on areas that tend to move (ex. Tip of the eyeliner).

Aside from that, the brad promised more vivid colors and has moisture care formula that provides hydration on skin.  

The new collection has 4 shades in total and I got 3 out of 4.

How to Paint Your Own Nails

 

Hi AMW Friends!!

Whenever I post my nail art tutorials, a lot of you are mentioning how difficult it is to paint your own nails!  How in the world can you even do nail art right?

This is one issue I did not bother answering because I felt most of us would rather relax at a nail salon and have someone do our nails!  But since the lockdown, for safety, for money savings and sanity!  I’ve decided to share this simple and easy-to-follow tutorial because there will be a point (while staying home) we want to look good right?  Even if we don’t go out as much, I find myself looking at a well-painted nails with a happy heart!  

One of my favorite pick-me-upper nail color is this deep burgundy red from Girlstuff called Bewitched.  

But let’s not go crazy, let’s start practicing using a nail polish base and hardener.  It is light colored so mistakes are welcome.  And hey, this is just nail polish - you can easily erase with a polish remover if you make mistakes!  I still make mistakes as of the moment but I just laugh it off and forgive myself!  That’s life!  

Happy watching!  I hope you learn a thing or 2 from me!  Stay safe!
