Hello MLI Readers!! I have been super busy for the last two weeks. I will try blogging as often as I could. I got these products from the mail last week. I can't wait to blog about these goodies. I know I have been mia most of the time in the blogging world but I am finally learning how to cope with my new super busy schedule. I have a handful of products to review and mostly are products that I bought with my own money.
Great news! Fairydrops has finally arrived in Manila. I have heard about this brand from Eki, the pretty blogger and Youtube guru, a year or two years ago. I was in awe watching her review about Fairydrops BB Cream. The coverage look so nice and full. I received this package from Cheryl and she was kind enough to send me Fairydrops and K-Palette mascara. Thank you Cheryl!!
Papulex is a new brand in the market. This brand is targeted for people with acne prone skin. My brother is using the these products and he is surely loving the cleansing gel. He told me that it feels so great on the skin, smells so good and it does not leave his skin dry and tight.
Til' my next blog post! I promise I will try posting the giveaway I have been talking about asap. :)
Have a blessed Sunday!

What do you think? My brows look cleaner, defined and posh looking. K-Palette Lasting 2Way Eyebrow will probably be the only thing you need in your makeup kit to define your brows. From the time I got this, I forgot about brow mascaras, powders and pencils. This is currently a HG (holy grail) product for me!
** I got this product from the K-Palette Launch for PR Purposes and review.

I got the shade No.1 which is perfect for my dark circles. At the event, I asked Ms. Cheryl about the shade range this concealer. Apparently, No. 1 is not the lightest neither No. 3 is. Do not confuse yourself with the numbering because each concealer has its own purpose which are:
Shade 01 Natural Beige consists of special hydrating ingredients Super lower- molecular Hyaluronic Acid- A, Water-soluble Collagen and Rose Water to moisturise under eye areas.
Shade 02 Yellow Beige contains brightening ingredients Vitamin C Derivative, Chamomilla Recutita Extract and Prune Extract.
Shade 03 Orange Beige contains beauty ingredients Swertia Japonica Extract, Silver Birch Leaves Extract & Amino Acid (Glycine) to revive tired-looking eyes by improving blood circulation around eye areas.
(Credits to for the above mentioned shade benefits and purposes: http://facekitt.com/blog/2012/04/19/k-palette-zero-kuma-concealer-review/)
I asked Ms. Cheryl about this and she told me that most buyers still prefer getting their concealer that fit their shade. Luckily, the shade I got (No.1) suits my skin tone really well (unbelievable) and is perfect for my dark circles. Shade 01 or Natural Beige has moisturizing properties. I have been using this concealer for almost a month now and I am in love with it! I have two other concealers and I tossed them in my makeup drawer. I prefer using this ever since I got it. I could actually see a huge difference when I use this concealer vis-a-vis my two other concealers.

The carded packaging of this concealer is so cute. Very Kawaii indeed. Do you know that Kuma means Bear in Japanese? |
I am not that crazy about the slanted tip tube but I think this type of packaging is very sanitary. This product costs 895 pesos and it can be bought at Beauty Bar. I never thought that I would love a liquid concealer this much. I would prefer cream concealers over liquid ones because they are easier to blend and have better coverage. I was amazed with this concealer. It is heavy duty indeed. With just a tiny amount, it can immediately cover my dark undereyes really well. I can finally bid adieu to my life long dilemma of dark circles within seconds. This lasts pretty well on me even without primer underneath. I just make sure that I set it with powder that matches my skin tone and I am set. This does not settle on my fine lines too. Also, it does not dry my undereyes like most concealers too. No dry patches even on the outer corner of my eyes. |
Shade No.1 perfectly matches my NC35 or medium yellow skintone. IThe texture is very creamy and blendable. It does not create those weird crazy streaks when applied. I apply this in a patting motion with my ring finger. The good thing is it does not dry too quickly but it delivers a matte finish on the skin. So here is a proof to show you that it does a remarkable job in covering my dark circles: |

Hi everyone! I was debating with myself if I should put up this EOTD since I was not very satisfied with my imperfectly done winged liner. Hehe I still feel like a makeup newbie every time I line my upper lid. I am trying my best to wear makeup to the office esp. eyeshadows. [Oohh if you'll see me at work, I look like shit. hehe Blame it to the sleepy lazy me. :p]
Anyways, this is the look I wore last Sunday. Yes, I went to church with full makeup. :) I am going to see the King of Kings.. Why not look my best, right? :))
My favorite eyeshadow palette as of the moment is from Wet n Wild The shade is Vanity Palette. I will be making a full review with swatches on this palette next week. |

The K-Palette goodies :)) |
Ms. Noriko started by prepping the face of Aimee. She used the Zero Kuma Concealer on her and I was amazed with its coverage and how flawless it looked on her lovely skin. |
The guy in this picture is Aisaku who was the interpreter of Ms. Noriko and the host for that day. |
This is how Ms. Noriko does the winged eyeliner. Muy perfecto! |
I am really amazed on how Ms. Noriko lined Aimee's eyes. I wonder if I can go to court sporting this look. (hmm... ) |
The only blogger I took a picture of that day!
I love everything about Shen! Head to foot! A real head turner! :) Hindi ko kinaya ang mga slits sa tag ulan. hehe bongga |
Ms. Cheryl We should be thankful for her because she brought this wonderful brand here in the Philippines! She is super nice and model-ish. Her brows are super nice. She used K-palette of course. :) |
A picture with Ms. Noriko She looks so cute!I, on the other hand, looked messed up. haha |
I have been using the goodies K-Palette gave us. I will write a full review on them soon. |
This is a limited edition liner. So Kawaii!! |
This deep brown eyeliner just became a daily staple. |
Out of all the products that were given to us, the Zero Kuma concealer is the one I am really crazy about. I have been using this since I got it and I love it. I thought my L.A. Girl Concealer was great. When I tried this, I forgot all about my LA Girl HD Pro Concealer and my Skinfood Dark Salmon Concealer. Initial thoughts- great coverage, moisturizing, and it does not cake. I may sound too biased now but this is the truth. I will road test it for a few more days before a full review I make a full review. Thank K-Palette for this wonderful event. K-Palette is available in all Beauty Bar Branches.
