Cocobelle Brush Cleaner Review

 

Before the official launching, Cocobelle PH reached out to me to review their brush cleaner!  I, for one, will always support small businesses and local manufacturers for products that REALLY WORK!  

Considering this was featured on my Instagram, then my Blog, you know that this passed my OC-ness in makeup brush cleansing with flying colors. 

Cocobelle Brush Cleaner Review

Cocobelle’s Makeup Brush Cleaner cleans, conditions, and extends the life of your brush. Not just that! It helps protect your skin from irritation because it’s made of all-natural quality ingredients!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The 250g is priced at Php600.00 available at Lazada while they also have a travel size for Php250.00.

To be honest, even the travel size bottle will ggo a long way!  I have a LOT of makeup brushes to clean every single week!  I have a whole set in my room and another set in my work-room.  I test a lot of makeup products thus I use a lot of makeup even if I am staying at home!

Cocobelle also sells silicone Brush Egg which is a perfect tool to use durin brush cleaning.

I like to swirl a wet brush directly on the Cocobelle Brush Cleaner bottle and do a gentle swirl, you will definitely see all sorts of makeup from the brush coming off without much pressure!

Maybelline x ITZY Supermattes by Colorsensational (Swatches + Review)

 

How in the world I managed to swatch all 10 shades of lipsticks in one go?

Beats me!

I get surprised myself!  But thankfully, it wasn’t hard with the new Maybelline X ITZY Supermattes By Colorsensational.  In swatch made me go OOOHHH and AHHHH.  Maybelline, you never fail to create wonderful shades apt for Filipinas!  I just can’t get enough of these!

The TIU Household has been on a KPOP craze for almost 2 years now and we have been playing non stop music including ITZY songs for their catchy beat!  So it wasn’t a surprise when this girl group that debuted 2019 called ITZY is the newest global spokesmodel!  Members are Yeji, Lia, Ryujin, Chaeryeong and Yuna!  They are the first K-pop stars to represent Maybelline and first music group to ever do so!



I am way past KPOP star era but that does not mean I can’t enjoy the benefits of it!  Are you ready for 10 shades from this collection?

Before you say anything, I am sure they have their own names but all I see on my tubes are numbers (I got a PR KIT for this but please note all opinions and reviews are MINE.)

Newly-Opened Sales Hub to SYNC Your Life with Your Dreams

 


My brother, who is an architect in China wants to stay updated with residences offered here in the Philippines!  I’ve said it a couple of times in my blog about our journey around the Metro looking for a nice place to be called Home and a place for investment!  With a top-notcher Architect Brother on my side (Top20 in the Philippines) whenever we do some oculars, I get some ideas on what to watch out for.

Since RLC Residences was officially launched to the public, I already put this on our list-to-visit when my brother comes home for a visit after the pandemic! 


 

SYNC, is an uban oasis along C5 Road by RLC Residences.  Officially opening SYNC Sales Hub are key executives from RLC Residences.

Update: Nose Contour Technique

 

I wish I could get a nose surgery…seriously…if that’s one thing I can get to do on my face….nose it is!

I mean obviously, there are several parts of my face that I want to change….(just being honest here) BUT, I can do away with false lashes, to make my eyes appear larger, I honestly like my one-liner eye whenever I smile but there’s nothing I can do to change my nose unless I use makeup.

Obviously, even when I get to be offered with free NOSE surgery, I will NEVER take the offer —- for so many reasons.

1. I’m a scaredy cat.

2. I have many allergies so beauty enhancements with surgery will NEVER cross my mind.

3. My husband loves my nose as it is….he’s fallen in love with me since Senior High ok? :P  (Haba  ng hair ko I know! :P)

So through the years, I almost perfected nose contouring especially my own!  So please…don’t judge me when you see me in person —- it’s not the filter…it’s always the makeup for me! :P



Can you spot the difference in both photos? 
If you have to look closely, that is a compliment for me, that means, the change is subtle you have to look closely to see the change! 


A quick video shared on my Instagram account using Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Concealer Duo!  The easiest tool to use not only to conceal but to contour and highlight.
