Celeteque Eyebrow Defining KIT Review

 When Celeteque created their own Cosmetics line under DermaCosmetics+ , I've reviewed a couple of their makeup products in this blog but took some time to use their Eyebrow Defining Kit because I've got my "Loyalty" on some brow products that I can't seem stay away from them.

But since receiving a couple of requests for a review on this particular product, I pulled out the shade Medium Brown just because I think it's the safest and easiest color to wear!

Housed in a simple plastic white packaging with the brand printed (similar packaging to ALL their makeup products), I like it that they are simple and straightforward.

In here, you get a KIT and they mean it when they say it's a KIT!  You get a Brow Powder, a Brow Wax and a dual-ended brush!  I am actually impressed!

Celeteque DermoCosmetics+ Eyebrow Defining KIT Review Says ---

Céleteque® DermoCosmetics TM Eyebrow Defining Kit is a 2-in-1 formulation of a Tinted Wax and a color complementing Eyebrow Powder for well-defined brows.*

Celeteque CC Micro-Hydrating Powder Review

When I first got the CC Micro-Hydrating Powder from Celeteque, I was wondering why they created such product that is bulky!  I mean everything's slimmer now --- mobile phones, bags, makeup packaging (except my waistline!)

As I read product description, that's when I understand why this is such a unique product worth trying.

"Céleteque DermoCosmetics CC Micro-Hydrating Powder features an autogrinding technology that gives you an ultra fine and hydrating powder that quickly blends and evens out skin complexion. It controls oil and shine while keeping skin radiant and well-moisturized. It also has SPF 30 to provide double sunscreen protection."

The Suncare Line You May Want To Try!

If there's one type of product that I highly use this year, it would be a bit of a surprise for me to say SUNBLOCK (not lip balm guys!  Sunblock!)

Ever since I send my son to school, drive him and wait for him, I am more exposed to the sun!  I ended up seeing some uneven marks on my skin (watch strap, sleeves from shirts and shorts, etc...)  So I've decided to really invest on various Sunblock brands and use them so fast I can't keep track!

One brand I've used and actually liked is from Celeteque Dermoscience.  Their Sun Care line consists of the Face and Body Sun Defense Spray with SPF50 and Broad Spectrum, the Matte Moisturizer with SPF30 and Broad Spectrum and lastly, my favorite is actually the Skin Relief After-Sun Gel which I use at night!

I believe these came out during summer but I am definitely using them all-year-round!  Thankfully, I like the feel of these products, non-greasy, non-oily and best of all, my uneven skin did not look more uneven after months of driving to and from school!

What's your favorite brand of sunblock for both face and body?

I am currently testing out a different brand after finishing these up!

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

 

Céleteque DermoCosmetics 2-in-1 Eyebag Miracle Kit Review

Eye bags, I used to say, I don't have it!  But since turning into a mom and taking up so much responsibilities, I knew my "bags" are crying for help!  Excess na excess na siya guys!  So one makeup product I'm really consistently finishing up...CONCEALERS! 

I have tried, used and reviewed so many concealers, from the most inexpensive to the most expensive ones!  I don't discriminate, if they work, I don't care if they are only a couple of hundreds as opposed to thousands of pesos!  

Recently, All-NEW Céleteque DermoCosmetics, came up with their own makeup line!  I have tried their concealers back then but this one is unique!  It is called the 2-in-1 Eye Bag Miracle Kit and I tested it out almost immediately.  Fast-forward to 2 months after, I'm ready to share my experience. 

Left side facing you, wore Celeteque 2-in-1 Eye Bag Miracle Kit in Natural.  

Right side facing you - barefaced.

Céleteque DermoCosmetics 2-in-1 Eyebag Miracle Kit 

(Php745.00)

"Is a two-component solution to the dark circles under your eyes that may be caused by poor sleep, allergies, hormone levels, or even the food you eat or the genes you’re born with. The kit contains an Eye Balm to reduce puffiness under the eye and an Eye Foundation in light, natural, and beige shades to cover and lighten your eyebags. Ingredients include the trademarked Cytobiol Lumin-eye to reduce puffiness and under-eye bags; Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) to nourish, hydrate, and firm up the skin, minimizing lines under the eyes; and antioxidants like Ubiquinone, Squalane, and Ginkgo Biloba leaf extract, all of which help prevent further skin damage."

In every makeup training/workshop that I do, I highly recommend everyone to use an eye cream prior to using a concealer especially since the area tends to be the most drying part of our face!  That area does not produce oil like other parts of our face so I'm glad Céleteque DermoCosmetics took some action and created a nifty pot that comes with an eye balm. 

Celeteque Ultra-Nourishing Lip Lacquers Review

I can't get enough of lip products IN ANY finish!  And I am very honest in saying, I probably have the driest lips in the Beauty Blogging world so if I say a lip product is hydrating or moisturizing enough --- you gotta believe me girls!

Celeteque ended 2016 with a huge BANG!  Literally a bang in terms of coming up with MORE makeup products.  From face, eyes, cheek and lips!  They created a whole bunch of products and I actually got my hands on some of them and I will start by reviewing the Celeteque Ultra-Nourishing Lip Lacquers because....my lips is extremely dry and crazy with no reason at all!  (Must be the colder weather)

Celeteque Ultra-Nourishing Lip Lacquer 

Php545.00 each

According to Celeteque DermoCosmetics ---

"For an extra-kissable pout, you’ll definitely want to carry around the Céleteque DermoCosmetics Ultra-Nourishing Lip Lacquer, which is lightweight, smooth, and non-greasy and comes in three shades: Natural Nude, Soft Pink, and Velvet Red. This gel-based lip moisturizer will keep your lips soft and supple all day, thanks to a formulation that includes the hydrating and moisturizing Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), castor seed oil, and Panthenol, all of which contribute to softer, smoother lips."

Celeteque Matte Lipsticks Review

Happy Monday AMW Friends!  With just less than a week before Christmas, I'm sure the get-together and Christmas Gatherings aren't over yet!  I know mine died down a bit but still have scheduled meet-ups with friends, family and colleagues!

As a very busy mom, I rely highly on  lipsticks to make myself look festive, gone are the days I go for sparkly eyeshadow or crazy thick eyeliner!  I just don't have the time to do so and having my son rub his face on mine made me wear less makeup!

Thankfully, Celeteque came up with Matte Lipstick shades perfect for the Holidays!

Céleteque’s NEW Matte Lipsticks

Php595.00 

L-R Shades Nude, Ruby and Wine

I find all 3 shades are the top 3 shades for every lipstick-wearing human being in the entire planet!  Every girl needs a nude lip color, a bright red lip color perfect for the holidays and of course, a deeper red wine color for those days you want to look classy.

Celeteque covered all 3 requirements and actually did a wonderful job!

This time, I am sharing tips on how to cover random pimple marks that are so pesky they stay with you forever!  (I have one on my left cheek by the way!)

Quick and Easy Nude Make Up Look using Celeteque DermoCosmetics Cheek Color Stick in Peach

One of the most used Celeteque DermoCosmetics product from the November BDJ Elite Box x Celeteque that I got is their Cheek Color Stick.  As simple as the name "peach' sounds, it definitely doesn't look simple on me!  This is the easiest product to use when I want to achieve the "nude" makeup look and I'll be sharing it to you...NOW!

Achieving this looks takes 5 minutes less!  You don't believe me? Here's the breakdown ---  1 minute for brows, around 2 minutes for eyeliner and less than 2 minutes using Celeteque DermoCosmetics Cheek Color Stick in Peach!

Celeteque 24 Hour Photoready Liquid Foundation Review

When I received my Celeteque DermoCosmetics+ goodies from BDJ Elite Box, I got extremely ecstatic because for one, Celeteque has been known to make good quality skincare products and I can't wait to see how their cosmetics line perform.

The first product that I tried from the bunch is the 24-Hour Photoready Liquid Foundation with SPF30.  It is because for the fact that I'm drawn to the term Photoready and I take foundations that are supposed to be "Photoready" seriously!

Celeteque DermoCosmetics+ says ---

This foundation is said to give out an airbrushed finish.  It can conceal dark circles and other blemishes while protecting our skin with Collagen Peptides.

Shades: Natural, Beige and Light

Unboxing: BDJ Elite Box x Celeteque

When I recently got this package, I thought it was sent directly from Celeteque!  It was because of the gorgeous packaging that gave me that impression.  As soon as I unboxed, I realized it came from our BDJ Box friends and they wanted me to experience their BDJ Box Elite Edition in partnership with Celeteque Dermocosmetics+.

I missed the launch of Celeteque DermoCosmetics+ line and I am so happy to receive this box because who wouldn't want to try out new makeup? And since I've recently received email requests to review this makeup line, this box saves me the effort to purchase this line of makeup.

Unboxing: BDJ Ber Month Beauty

So I got extremely excited in receiving an Elite Box from BDJ Box!  This is their Ber Month Beauty box that includes items I can't wait to use, have used but loved or some worth sharing to my family and friends!

In one glance, which particular product caught your attention?  

Unboxing: BDJ July 2015 Prepped and Polished Box

As some of you may go "Hohum" on the previous BDJ boxes, my heart gave a skip on this month's PREPPED and POLISHED Box!  The name says it all!  Who doesn't like to look prepared and polished wherever we go?  I know I do!  As I seem not to sport that look nowadays with all the crazy schedule!  

What I like about this month's box how diverse the brands they included here.  But all of them have the same purpose --- to make us feel good both in and out.

Let us start with the most "obvious" product/s in the box!  It just came out of the market and you've probably seen ads on all social media!  And yes, BDJ Box subscribers, you get to try them immediately!

Céleteque Acne Solutions Acne-Clearing Concealer Review

Céleteque, the brand that is known for skincare came up with their own concealer called Acne Solutions Acne-Clearing Concealer!  I can't really say this is makeup as it has a cover-up pimple and treatment properties making sure your zit won't get into its' worst state as you try to cover them up!

True enough, there are days when you just want to cover your pimple because it popped out at a wrong timing (ex. party to attend, date, get-together with friends).  I usually go for my trustee The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil but obviously, that is just a treatment and I still need a separate concealer.  This is where the product comes in!  A 2-in1 product that promises coverage and treatment!

The tiniest concealer I own!  The length of the packaging is only 4 inches while the diameter is less than 10cm!

Unboxing: BDJ Box (July 2014)

Hello!  If you have a "Blog" roll that you follow on a daily basis, you've probably seen a lot of Beauty Bloggers unboxing their July BDJ Box!  You may think "hohum" not another BDJ Box unboxing but hey!  This is seriously exciting for me, and I'm sure at some point in your life, you have received a gift and you get so excited to unbox or unwrap them as well!  

This box is no exception, any packages I get still give me the "high" and I guess that's how it is in life, we have to find the "balance" to keep us moving.  We have to find something that will excite us no matter how superficial it is!  :) And for me, the superficial side is receiving beauty-related stuff!  Because I like them, that's the reason why this Blog still exists after all these years :)

Just in case you're not updated, here's what's inside the BDJ July box!  What I like about BDJ Box is that they are environmental-friendly!  They've used their small boxes for quite sometime and I like it that they don't waste a single space inside!  And just when I thought: "How do they deal with big products/samples?"  In a blink of an eye, my queries were answered!  They created bigger boxes this month to house bigger samples and still didn't fail to put a smile on my face!

What to take a closer look on the brands included?

Something New: 2 New Clarifying Shampoos from Local Brands

Do you still remember my post on: "I Wonder: Do You Use Clarifying Shampoo?"

That post was written year 2012 and so far, I've tried some more Clarifying shampoos aside from the Schwarzkopf Essensity Clarifying Shampoo.

As a product reviewer/beauty products Blogger, I actually haven't tried a whole lot of clarifying shampoos as you know, I really use them once a week!  And I actually finish them all up!  Yup, no wastage!  I disliked ignoring products that works!

It has been months that I used up my  Yves Rocher  Eclat Radiance Rinsing Vinegar which I use it as a clarifying "tool".  It works and I love it!  But obviously, I want to try out MORE and thankfully, before the end of last year, I was introduced with two!  And the good part? These 2 are made locally and I can't wait to start using them!  To be honest, I just don't know which one I'll go first!  HELP?

AMW Reviews: Celeteque Hydration Make-Up Remover Cleansing Facial Wipes

Imagine yourself in my situation...

Baby is wide awake until 3:00am, I had to wake up around 5:00am to feed him and express milk, then proceed to my day job until 6:00pm.  Sometimes, when I plan to take a quick nap, I don't like the feeling of having makeup on!  Do I wash my face?  No, I'll end up wide awake and I don't think my tired eyes will appreciate that!

That's where makeup remover wipes come in!  I do not use them as my "main" makeup remover but I love how versatile they are to remove not only makeup mid-day but they refreshes me in an instant!  There are so many brands of makeup remover wipes out there but I seem to have a favorite! 

Celeteque says ---

CELETEQUE DermoScience™ Hydration Make-Up Remover Wipes gently removes make-up, excess sebum and dirt that may clog skin pores. It has Active Skin Hydrators that help boost skin’s level of moisture. It is convenient to use anytime anywhere.

AMW Reviews: Celeteque Brightening Multi-Benefit BB Cream with SPF15

Happy Thursday everyone!  I am happy to share another BB Cream find!  I haven't been trying out much BB creams in the market since I found my favorites --- Skin 79 VIP Gold BB Cream and

Fairy Drops Candy Bar BB Cream.

Both are great and I am very contented with the mentioned BB Creams, but given the chance to find a good BB Cream that delivers minus the price tag...why not coconut? :D

Recently, I got to try Celeteque Dermoscience Multi-Benefit BB Cream with SPF15.  It promises light coverage, moisturizing and pore tightening properties with SPF15.  That's good enough for me for daily use!

AMW Reviews: Celeteque Sun Care Soothing Lip Balm with SPF15

Happy Friday AMW Friends!
Me and my brother have been lip balm/moisturizer user for years!  I purchased my first ever lip balm at a local drugstore back when I was still in grade school, I can still remember it was a minty Chapstick.  No, I'm not into beauty products at an early age but it's more of a "need" rather than luxury!

When I found a good lip balm that works, I always share my finds to my brother whenever he gets back for vacation (ex. Burt's Bees, Kiehl's No. 1 Lip balm, Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream etc...), and finally, I'm glad to share to him another finding, an inexpensive one and I'm sure he'll appreciate it as he uses Celeteque skin care range anyways!

AMW Reviews: Celeteque Anti-Stretch Mark Cream

Happy Monday!!!
As soon as my morning sickness died down (a tiny bit), I was aiming for anti-stretch mark cream application even though the scent puts me off!  Would you believe I literally wear a mask during application?  Sorry to say, I'd rather go for that route rather than having stretch  marks!  I'm not vain, but I'm just making sure I take care of my body!  *laughs*  I wish the skin has its own "skin system" wherein the body can automatically adjust to changes and steer away from ugly stretchmarks.  Unfortunately, there's none.

I was told so many times through research that genetics plays a huge role!  I literally had to take a peek at my mom's belly and true enough, she has stretch marks because she was scratching her belly non-stop due to pregnancy but the rest of her body are stretch marks free! 

That's confusing right?  But I can't take risks or chances, whether anti-stretch mark creams work or not!  I'm definitely giving them a try, plus of course, I know these products also help stop the urge to scratch your belly as it rapidly grows!

Few products that I've tried and reviewed are ---
Palmer's Organics Cocoa Butter Massage Cream for Stretch Marks 
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil

Many of you mentioned on how you guys want to try the said products I reviewed above but wants an inexpensive version!  Thankfully, a local trusted brand Celeteque actually has one!

AMW Reviews: Celeteque Hydration Hydrolized Moisturizing Mist

Happy Thursday AMW friends!  How's your week?  Mine was quite good, my allergies were acting up for weeks and I finally went back to the doctor to have a safe anti-histamine medication prescribed and I'm definitely sleeping more soundly!  

Today, I will be reviewing a product close to my heart.  Well, any product that gives an instant boost of hydration will always be my best friend!  Just like lip balm, I cannot live without a moisturizer or hydration mists (for in between days) because putting on makeup will always cause my skin to dry out midday!  I have used the Celeteque Hydration Hydrolized Moisturizing Mist for quite some time (even before I got pregnant) and today, I will finally unveil my thoughts on this product after finishing this up! 

Celeteque says ---

CELETEQUE DermoScience™ Hydration Hydrolyzed Moisturizing Mist contains Hydrolyzed Liquids and NMF that restore moisture to the skin and improve its elasticity and softness. Water from Fuji has trace elements that rejuvenate the skin to make it feel more supple and refreshed. It can also be used over make-up.

Ingredients:














 AMW says ---
Pros

• Handy, spritz bottle easy to tote along for travel.
• Gives instant boost of moisture to your skin.
• Refreshing to use anytime of the day.
• Doesn't give a greasy or oily feel.
• Helps foundation adheres better on skin with this extra boost of moisture prior to makeup application.
• No allergic reactions or skin irritations on my part while using this.
• Makeup doesn't look as "powdery" when spritzed with Celeteque Hydration Hydrolized Moisturizing Mist after makeup application.
• Proudly Philippine made product!

Cons

• None for now. 

Overall
Refreshing, simple yet smart packaging, easy to use and gives instant boost of hydration anytime of the day.

Tips
from Celeteque

• After washing the face, spray the mist once or twice on the selected areas of the face and tap dry with a soft cloth. 
• It is best to use before make-up or sunscreen application to moisturize and awaken the skin. Use as often as needed.

from AMW

• Store the product inside the fridge for a refreshing cool mist!
• Spritz all over your face and pat using your clean fingers after skincare, prior to makeup application.
• If you suffer from super dry skin, spritz this product after foundation application to prevent skin dryness.
• Once signs of irritations occur, stop usage immediately!  Though this product is tested hypoallergenic and safe for use among Filipinos, there will always be exceptions to the rule.
• In between spritz, pat using clean tissue paper to prevent makeup from sliding off.

Will I repurchase?
Yes.

To whom do I recommend this to?

All skin types!  Though I highly recommend this for people with dry skin, this also works for oily skinned individuals who dislikes the use of extra moisturizer in their daily routine.

Where to purchase and how much?

Available at Mercury Drugstores, Watsons, SM Department Stores, Robinsons Supermarket, Landmark, PCX, Shopwise and Rustans for Php349.00 (approx $8.73).

Do you currently use any facial mist for hydration?  If yes, which brand and does it work for you?

I for once has always been a MAC Renewal Defense Charged Water user and I still use that at present, but on days I need the extra hydration without me worrying about the price of each spritz, I go for Celeteque Hydration Hydrolized Moisturizing Mist.  So far, the name sounds a bit too scientific for me and I have to admit, I was scared to use at first, but with my doctor's go signal and without the allergic reactions that I usually get (in an instant), I'm so far, safe using this product!
