Since school started I tried to take off my kikay/kaartehan cloak in school and I even tried harder shifting to the Nerdy Mode. To no avail, I cannot resist reading beauty blogs and buying online. :S I even dared myself countless of times to wear make up in school. My aunt from Paris, France arrived a week ago. She was opening her balikbayan box and handed out to me lipsticks from Revlon and H&M.I immediately grabbed the Revlon one.
REVLON CREATIONS
ROUGE FEVER LIPSTICK
Rouge Glamour
I tried looking for a review about this lipstick on the net. I found out that this is not available in the US. This particular line was from Revlon Paris which is designed specifically for the European market. I thought I found my best red lipstick from Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Red Revival but this one is more of a true red. The former has a hint of dark fuchsia pink in it. This lipstick is super creamy even on my dry lips and does not look too matte.
Red is Sexy.
No lipliner. No balm. Just Revlon Rouge Lipstick.
Btw, I got a comment from an anonymous reader alarming me of someone using my pictures for an online shop. I want to take an action but everything was written in Spanish. (Spanish is one of my hatest subject way back in college!!) Thank you for your concern.
I actually do not have any idea if this has been discontinued because I have not been visiting the face shop in ages. This has been in my makeup stash for quite sometime now. I tried their clear Span Primer before but I am not that impressed. I am not a fan of primer because of my super dry skin but eventually saw the need to buy a green primer/corrector because nasty rashes have been a big problem for me. I bought this online for only 195 pesos. If I am not mistaken, this costs around 350 pesos.
40ml.
Description
Oil-free, non-sticky makeup base helps skin banish unwanted shine for fresh makeup. Green neutralizes redness and evens out skin tone.
What I love about this Primer:
- Smoothens my face. This creates a flawless and poreless skin.
- Gives me a nice glow
- Reduces the redness on my skin especially my red pimple marks and rashes.
- I also mix this with my other foundation especially Revlon photogenic liquid foundation and it makes the consistency better and more blendable.
- Blends very well on my skin.
- It instantly brightens my face and somehow prolong my foundation.
- Very affordable and it did not break me out.
What I hate about this Primer:
- TOO MUCH of this product makes your foundation cakey .
- Gives off that unnatural white cast, so you have to apply a minimal amount of this product only.
The consistency of this primer is really thick but blendable.
Here is a picture of this product when blended on my skin.
Evidently, it gives off that white cast in pictures so you better dab a small amount on your face.
CAVEAT:
The next picture will showcase my ugly skin when I am suffering from rashes and breakouts.
See, how it covered up my pores and lessen the redness on my skin?

It is finally here!! My All Natural Face Oily Lid Primer in Dark Buff. I bought this last June 20 and it arrived last week. What I love about All Natural Face Shop is their quick shipping. I made this an initial review because I have not actually used this as a primer on my shadows since I barely wear eye makeup.
was actually expecting a dark wax on the tub but lo and behold. This primer unlike their other shadow primer which I am using before is not a waxy balm at all. It is more of a cream concealer but with a matte finish. The texture is drier too. The consistency is not too creamy but it blends easily when applied. Dark Buff blends evenly with my skin tone. For reference, I am NC37. Here is a swatch of this primer.
This primer reminds me of NYX eyeshadow primer in skin.
You all know how I love their eyeshadow primer because it makes my eyeshadows pop with color. This one is also good in making shadows more vibrant!
I tested this primer with my Everbilena 24 eyeshadow palette. I love its effect but the older formula is better in making e/s pop. I have not used it though on my lids as a primer for eyeshadows. However, since I got this primer I have been using it as a base for my concealer and for brightening my lid and under eye but it makes my me a bit teary eyed. I usually experience my concealer getting all washed out at the end of the day. When I started using this, I was pretty amaze that even after class dismissal my powder and concealer around my eyes are still in place!
Here are the samples that I received from my purchase. I got the fuchsia eyeshadow and the strawberry and coconut facial wash primer. The facial wash smells so good and it was really made of natural products!! I gave the other two samples to
Chas of http://www.vain-and-pleasure.blogspot.com/, my very good friend, who also ordered this primer.
More comparative review on this primer soon. I want to apologize if I am not that responsive to questions and tags lately. I am really busy. I want to study but I am taking a day off from school today. I missed my remedial law review class this day because I am getting nauseous while studying. I will now be wearing eyeglasses. YAY!! i can't study right now. I am really stressed. I was called for recitation the other day and I was a mess. I did not study the previous provisions. My terror lady professor told me:
"To my recollection, you are one of the better students that I have. So you must live up to that. "
awww...i need to study. I need my eyeglasses asap.
