My Brushes from Amazon!
Thinking back to the time I was obsessed looking for kabuki brushes during university days... and I spent 800PHP ($17) on one stippling brush only to find it falling apart on me despite my best efforts in actually caring for it. Ugh, not a very smart move on my part! Well, the point of this post is to see that you need to do your research well before dropping big bucks into some brands... because, apparently, you'll be surprised at how good generic brands are!

Hey guys!
I'd like to share with you my favorites for this year!
These are products I find myself reaching for everyday and are satisfying...
They are not arranged at any order, by the way.
Here goes!
A. E.L.F.'s Blushed/Bronzed Duo - I love how this is a two-in-one product with a great blush & bronzer in a very sleek packaging. More info here.
B. Amazing Cosmetics' AmazingConcealer - So far my HG concealer but very pricey.
C. MAC Studio Fix Powder Foundation in NC42 - Great coverage!
D. E.L.F. Angled Eyeliner Brush - Soft & lines my eyes well... including the inner corners!
E. Revlon Colorstay 12 Hour Eyeshadow "06 In the Buff" - A couple of light warm eyeshadows I use when I feel like making my eyes more prominent asides from the use of eyeliner.
F. Wet n' Wild Mega Eyes Creme Eyeliner in Black - Creamy, easy to work with, lasts all day even in high humidity, intense black color, and affordable! This pot is my second one!
G. Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara - Keeps my lashes curled, lenthens my lashes, and doesn't have a messy application.
H. Ecotools Recycled Retractable Kabuki Brush - Great for on-the-go. Great Quality. Super soft!
I. E.L.F. Studio Eye Primer - Great for everyday use & affordable.
J. Nichido Extra Waterproof, Protective Eye Pencil - So far the only eyebrow pencil that suits me naturally!
K. The Face Shop Essential Masksheet CO-Q10 (for supple skin) - I woke up to clear and smooth skin after I used this over night! Masks like these are essential for beautiful skin.
I included a mini review for each...
But for the products I haven't done a thorough review on, I may make one if anyone would like me to.
Anyways, if you haven't shared your top picks for 2011 and would like to do the same...
I TAG YOU!
Advance Happy New Year!

| Ecotools' Recycled Retractable Kabuki Brush |
I've had this brush for officially a year now and it's still looking great! I definitely love this just because it has more than one use, its so soft, and I'm assured this won't gather dirt from my makeup bag or purse! I've said in my old post for the Retractable Brush by Fashion 21 that I wanted something retractable and this is the brush I've purchased right after that! It's so awesome I don't intend to look for another! You don't have to ever worry about a million tiny little hairs scattered all over your face and neck right after you've done your makeup! This a definite must-have in every makeup bag, for real!

E.L.F. Studio Line Powder Brush
| E.L.F's Studio Line Powder Brush |
This new anti bacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. studio brush!
-Creates a professional sculpted look
-Full coverage color
-Use for powder or blush for perfect contouring
*Vegan Friendly
Price: $3
Description taken from here.
This very dense flat top brush does not shed, bleed, nor does it hurt my face! The bristles are soft yet firm and is able to maintain its original shape even after washing it a few times. As the description stated, this brush definitely may be used for both powder and liquid foundation! I've used it with my Rimmel liquid foundation and it did great for "Stippling" to a flawless finish! It can pick up a lot of product for full coverage without much effort, as well. And finally, the product itself looks very chic and far from a stereotypical cheap-product-look!
What I don't like about this brush? Nothing really... with an exception to when I pat it too strong against my compact powders which then causes a mess.
| E.L.F. Studio Line Powder Brush on my MAC Skinfinish Natural. |
But then again, that would be my fault for not being gentle when I know it can pick up so much already with a much lesser force!
Basically! I love this brush! You get a great quality chic brush for just $3!
Would I repruchase?
I definitely would for reasons of when this brush eventually breaks down or when I decide to do other people's makeup.
I think this is available in the Philippines at SM Malls. Unfortunately, the prices are jacked up to approximately 300PHP or more (for the E.L.F Studio Line). Despite the huge price inflation, I would definitely buy this over the 900PHP Barenaturals brush I bought back then! That brush never felt it was worth the price since the beginning... But what did I know? I was a newbie makeup lover back then who was so obsessed on getting herself a really good Stippling Brush! I spent a major portion of my allowance just to buy that piece of trash back then! All you students out there, you feel me right???! HAHA. Click here to read what happened to that brush after 9 months of special treatment and being rarely used.
If I was mistaken about its availability in SM beauty sections, there are online shops in the Philippines that have this either on-hand or for pre-order. Just check multiply sites & ebay, I saw a bunch when I was in the Philippines. ^_^

I hope you guys like my pictures! I've started taking my own product shots with my own camera (its not a dslr like my sister's)! I definitely hope I am improving my blogging skills... TEEHEE!
Till the next post!

Drugstore Haul
So these are a bunch of stuff I've picked up at different drugstores and at different times the past two weeks...| Revlon Photoready Foundation in 010 Caramel. |
| Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Combination/Oily Skin in 340 Early Tan. |
| Revlon Photoready Concealer in Deep. |
My skin is at its worst state lately and I thought to myself that I must get something to cover it all up!
I thought about getting myself more MAC stuff but I've read and heard
so many raves about Revlon's foundation line (being a great substitute
for MAC) and I was at the drugstore anyways... so I made myself grab for it before I get more than extremely late in the "Revlon craze".
| ELF Eyebrow Kit in Medium |
| Wet n Wild Brow & Eye Liner in Dark Brown. |
| Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Brown. |
My eyebrows have been bothering me for awhile now. I know its quite thick but it grows long and seems to have a mind of it own. I decided to trim it up for better control... all I needed was a good new eyebrow product to simulate perfect eyebrows.
| Select Lash. |
| Select Lash. |
| ELF Brushes: Concealer Brush, Studio Line Contour Brush, (2) Blending Eye Brush, & (2) Eyeshadow Brush. |
| ELF Brush Shampoo. |
That's the end of my drugstore haul. Please bear in mind they were bought not all at the same time... I just thought its better to just get them all out in one post. I will hopefully do reviews on all of them soon...
Thanks for the time!
