It is the time of the year when I buy makeup that exceed my usual budget. This year, I decided to buy something different, in line with my future side profession (professional makeup artist). HD and theatrical makeup brands used by local and foreign makeup artists have been ringing in my head since last last week. I would always stay up late at night looking at professional makeup artists' makeup kit, be it in youtube or instagram. On top of my list are Wayne's of Gossmakeupartist suggestions. First- foundations. I was going crazy thinking about the amount that I will be spending on foundation alone. Should I get all shades? Should I get cream? Liquid? Ohh my.. powders pa pala! Waahh.. I decided to start with cream foundations since I am not used to using them. For years, I prefer liquid foundations. I really wanted to get the Graftobian in the single pans but I do not know what shades to get. I was browsing on ebay.ph and found this store that sells Graftobian at a lower cost. 749 pesos only.. Then I saw her listing of Mehron Celebre foundation.. I started searching the internet for reviews on this and found out from Wayne that it has the same consistency as that of Graftobian but it has more product! 25 grams for 799 pesos is worth it!!
I got the shade Eurasia Japonais, Eurasia Fair and Eurasia Chinois!! I got a yellow tone, olive and a darker one for contouring. I also got the Graftobian Concealer/Corrector palette wheel in light and a plastic mixing palette.I am not used to cream foundations and I need these to get me started. I have not yet opened them because I do not have a spatula yet. Haha.. Did you know that you should refrain from dipping your sponge more than once on cream foundations because bacteria will immediately adhere to it? Yay!! I thought I know how to use products but there's a lot more to learn.
Here is the run down on the prices:
Graftobian Concealer Wheel: 1,199 pesos
Mehron HD Celebre Foundation: 799 pesos/pc
Well Plastic Mixing Palette; 145 pesos
Products next on my list:
Graftobian 5 pc foundation/concealer palette or should I get the RCMA one?
Maqpro Mixing Medium
Liquid foundation - Any suggestion on this one? Should I get the MAC Face and Body to complement the thickness of the cream foundations or the MAC Pro longwear?
Airbrush system (dinair or temptu?) haha
(parang ang dami kong pera! lols)
