Here is the first set of my beauty products discoveries!
1. Tony Moly Goat Milk Pure CC SPF30 PA++ (Naturalth)
I got a sample from attending the Project Vanity’s 8th anniversary. I read some reviews about it from fellow Filipino bloggers and it urged me to test it on my skin.
Their reviews: “You will look like a ghost because it was too white for your skin.”
“Perfect for everyday use...”
My honest and humble opinions…
***HITS***
~Packaging. It is very simple but classy. It is a tube like which for works well for a CC Cream
~Texture. I actually like the color and the softness of the liquid. It is not sticky. My skin easily absorbs it.
~Smell. It has a mild scent which is fine with me.
~Good coverage. It blends with my skin color very well and it stays longer. I only put enough cream to cover my face.
On my first try, I wore it for eight hours at work and my colleague commented that my face didn’t look oily at all. I didn’t apply powder, just the CC cream.
***MISS***
~Price. A bit pricey because it costs 1+++ php, but knowing Tony Moly products, one doesn’t mind the price but the effectiveness.
Verdict: This is the second products that I tried from Tony Moly and I must say that I like this brand. Will I buy the real item? Probably…
2. Maybelline Clear Smooth All In One
I’ve been seeing this shine free powder foundation, and I’ve been wondering, why people are saying positive things about. I was disappointed with the last face powder (local brand) that I bought that I had to switch to a new one.
***HITS***
~Long-lasting. When it said, 8 hours shine free it is truly telling the truth. My face didn’t become oily even though the sun was scorching.
~Coverage. I was hesitant when I saw that it has foundation. I don’t usually wear one unless it is liquid foundation. Yet I gave it a try and I actually love it. Every time I used the powder foundation, it hid my big pores and pimples. I like how it makes my face flawless, even if it for eight hours only.
~Pink container. I’m not a fan of the color, but I like the shade of the compact powder and the convenience that it gives.
~Great deal. The satisfaction that it brings and its price match well. The regular price is 260 php, yet I was able to buy it for 220php!
***MISS***
~None at the moment.
Verdict: I’m a fan of this pressed powder now and yes I’m going to buy a refilled once it will be gone.
3. Fashion 21 Pretty Lash Long and Curl Mascara
I received a free sample of this mascara which I liked a lot. Unfortunately, it is very expensive to buy so I looked for cheaper but good mascara. My feet dragged me to Fashion 21 booth. I’m in love with their concealer that’s why I wanted to try their other products.
***HITS***
~Affordability. One of the most affordable mascara that I ever encountered! I purchased one for 130php because it was discounted and the market price is 199php.
~Mascara wand. The thin and medium sized brush in this mascara is a plus for me.
***MISS***
~Effectiveness. I’m truly disappointed when I first applied it on my eyelashes. It didn’t even curve in, a bit like nothing happened.
Verdict: I love Fashion 21 but I will not buy this mascara again. Sorry.
