Yves Rocher Waterproof Eye Pencil - Turqoise

Happy Monday everyone! My 3rd post for this month, yep, trying to pick up the pace here guys :)

For today, I'd like to share with you one of the eyeliners I have been using for the past few months. It's from Yves Rocher, it's their Waterproof Eye pencil in Turqoise (05). I'm am in a Love It and Hate It stand with this eyeliner.

What I love the most is the color! Thank goodness Yves Rocher has them in different colors that are way beyond boring. Their color selection is really great, something to keep you off from the boring black and brown :) it's very pigmented, you get a good color payoff with just 1 swipe. This is recommended if you want your eyes to pop with color.

What I don't like is the staying power :( although Yves Rocher claims this to be Waterproof, it is not smudge proof. I have oily lids and man, whenever I put this on my lids, expect them to be part of my undereye circle after a few hrs ( to think I am in an airconditioned room) . You may have to check after 3 hrs if it has come down from your lids and retouch if necessary. Yep, the picture below is me wearing it on my way home...I look dead beat but the color is still there 😂

The price is Php495, a little pricey for a pencil liner. Another good thing is that you wont need a sharpener for this because its retractable. I just wish they'd stay in place more... 😄

Tony Moly Dear Me Petit Cotton BB Cream

My second post for this month and I'm excited to share with you another Tony Moly gem. It's called Dear Me Petit Cotton BB Cream :)

I have been using this for more than a month now and I like it. I use in exchange of my Shu Uemura Nobara Stick and Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer. What I like most about it is the coverage. It's matte finish an it has SPF30 to protect me from the harmful rays of the sun (eh panggabi pala pasok ko sa work! Pak!!!)

The scent is mild and not annoying. The packaging reminds me of baby products because of the blue and white combination. The consistency of the BB cream is not too thick but not too watery...just right and it's easy to blend on the skin.

I am a bit scared of trying BB creams because of the shade, and I always end up with grayish or too whitish face. Deam Me has only one shade available but fret not! It adapts to your skintone, you just need to wait for it to set for a few minutes and you'll see the difference. :)

So far, Tony Moly products has been very good and it didn't aggravate my already acne prone face. I didn't realize that majority of my skincare and make up products came from them!!!

For a price of Php300+ ish, this BB cream is definitely a must buy :)

Nature Republic Bamboo Cleansing Water

Hello Darlings!!! It's been a while since I posted anything on my blog and I apologize...(may nagbabasa ba?) hehehe 😂

My Tony Moly Aqua Cleansing Water has reached it's end so I am in the lookout for something new. It's not that I am not satisfied with it but I am always open to trying out if there's something new...huwaw rhyme (lolz)

I ended up buying Nature Republic's Bamboo Cleansing Water which is basically the same with my TMAC but a lot better :-) Let's start with the packaging: it is in a 250ml clear plastic bottle with pump that makes dispensing easy. The smell, the smell...my gawwwdd I love the smell. It reminds me of the baby powder scent but not too strong.





I use it the same way I use my aqua cleansing water...put a little on a cotton ball and swipe it on my face painted este make-up-filled face. I love because it makes me feel that the make up is removed but it doesn't leave a dry feeling...you wont feel that your skin is stretched thin because of cleansing. I did not have any adverse reactions to it, same as before I get zits only when that redflag moment is near.







Overall, I liked it and it also comes with Nature Republic's cotton. I think I bought it for around php260 so you'll really get a bang for your buck! :-) I recommend this if you are looking for a mild but effective facial cleanser.

Tony Moly Lemon Sherbet Foot Mask

As I am having my feet pampered here in Buff Spa, I remembered that I had to post about a foot mask that I had recently tried.


Tony Moly's Lemon Sherbet Foot Mask smelled really nice. The packaging was cute with pictures of lemon :-) hays!!! Moment of truth came, I've put it on as soon as I came to the office. A little bummed because the instructions on the back of the packaging has no english translation.







 Anyways, I had to make use of my google and the pictures on the back. It's pretty much easy to use. There are two masks for the feet, with plastic covers and sticker strip to keep the plastic cover in place.








I had this on for 30-45 minutes. As much as I would like to put it on longer or until it dries out, I need to go oit o the office na kasi hanap na ako ng mga tao ko :-)






I like it because it makes my feet moisturized and soft. Perfect for those days that I am unable to go to the salon to have a foot spa. ❤❤❤
