April Favorites! <3

Untitled_Fotor

Wow! April went by just like that and I hope I’m not yet late for my April Favorites.

I have been very minimal for the month of April and I’ve been wearing almost the same products all the time. I’ve been very careful with the products I applied on my face as you all know I’m still trying to cure some sparkles. Soon, I will post my updated skincare routine that made a huge difference on my skin. But before doing that, let me show you the products that I loved for the past month.

March Favorites! #Beauty #Extras

It’s Favorites Time!πŸ‘πŸ‘

Hi Cyber-buddies!! Hows everyone doing today? I hope you all are doing great. πŸ™‚

It’s the beginning of April so I guess I’m not yet late to share my March Favorites right?

I am not going to include any product description on this post but will go ahead and maybe say a “little” about it to make this a quick and fun post.

So yeah! here we go… πŸ™‚

Let’s start with face products. I’m sure most of us loves face products and here are my faves.

IMG_0951

  • Rimmel London BB Cream (Beauty Balm) it’s 9-In-1 Skin Perfecting Super Makeup in the shade LIGHT. I never thought that I am going to love a BB Cream. This product is very smooth on the skin, very light that you don’t even feel like you are wearing something on your face.Β It’s Skin perfecting super makeup with 9-IN-1 results. It Primes, Moisturizes, Helps Minimize the appearance of pores, Conceals, Covers, Smoothes, Mattifies, Brightens and Helps protect. This product lasts all day. πŸ™‚
  • Rimmel London Match Perfection in shade Light Nude (102) – This is a light perfecting radiance sunscreen foundation that everything about this product is just amazing! I have repurchased this foundation billion times and in fact, I already have a back-up in case I will ran out of it.. πŸ™‚ I love the consistency, the shade, the smell, the feel on your skin and most importantly the price. This is very affordable and you can find it in your local drugstores. I can’t say enough about this product so I guess I better move to my next fave.. lol πŸ˜›
  • Maybelline Dream Lume Touch Highlighting Concealer in the shade Radiant – I’ve had this product for a while now and I almost forgot about it. I started reaching to this product again because I was looking for something to cover my “sparkles” (to those who wants to know what is “sparkles” please check out this postΒ Facial Products.. (Failed andΒ Passed). I know it says Highlighting Concealer but it helped cover my sparkles..(maybe because it’s kinda full coverage) and that’s why I liked it.
  • Real Techniques (Miracle Complexion Sponge) – I wanted to purchase the infamous Beauty Blender but I just don’t think it’s practical enough for me to spend that much. I saw some beauty gurus mentioned this as a cheaper dupe for the Beauty Blender though I’m sure it’s not the best but so far I am loving it. It gives flawless finish and helps you blend the products really really well. πŸ™‚
  • Β SIMPLEΒ Replenishing Rich Moisturizer – It says “Kind To Skin” and Yes! this is so true. So far I haven’t felt any irritation on my skin ever since I started using this. It has Vital Vitamin, Skin Loving Nutrients and No Perfume, No Dyes that is why it’s very gentle and very good on your skin.
  • Who doesn’t love Facial Wipes?? Tell me.. tell me.. πŸ˜› I have been using this SIMPLE cleansing Facial Wipes (Sensitive Skin Experts) for a couple of months now and I am not even planning of replacing this product anytime soon. I love that it doesn’t feel sticky on your skin, it has multi-vitamins, it gently cleanse, removing impurities and even the toughest make-up is gone with just one wipe.

Moving on, let’s talk about beautifying your face.. let’s talk colors.. πŸ™‚IMG_0952IMG_0954

  • You all have seen my favorite blush brush and this is from Essential Tools
  • . I love this so much, it’s so smooth and it doesn’t have any fall-outs whenever you apply your blush. You guys should check this out, it’s so cheap and it’s just awesome!
  • MARCHscara of the month is the Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara. I’ve been carrying this in my purse since I purchased this last month and since then, I have been using this a ton. It’s very buildable, makes your lashes looks longer and it doesn’t have clumps. It’s worth the $$$.
  • Carmex (original) Lip Balm is my HOLY GRAILπŸ‘ΌπŸ™ – I cannot thank this lip balm enough..I don’t know what I would do without this balm..This saved my lips when I had a really bad allergic reaction with lipsticks. I will explain this in my next post. Bottomline, this is one thing that I cannot live without for real.
IMG_0955

This blush is from TOPSHOP in the shade “Do It Again”. This product is very pigmented and very smooth. My camera didn’t do justice on the shade but this blush is more like “peachy-pink tone” and isΒ perfect on fairer skin like mine and the subtle shimmer helps provide a natural looking flush that isn’t too much. It’s great for everyday use at anytime and anywhere.Β I paid only $12.00 and it’s worth the price..

L”oreal Infallible Eye Shadow in Amber Rush shade #892 has always been my go to eye shadow when I’m on a rush. This eye shadow is very pigmented and it’s just good for everyday wear. It may seemed too shimmery but it’s actually a very Β pretty “bronzy” “rosey” shade and the shimmer is just very subtle.

Β Β Now for my lipstick faves.. I have been loving the Revlon Colorburst-Matte Balm in “Elusive” shade #205.

This is very hydrating, comfortable feel of a balm. It’s a twist-up, jumbo-sized lip pencil, so there’s no need to sharpen (and therefore, no waste). This shadeΒ is a medium, warm-toned pink with yellow undertones and a satin-matte finish. Great for everyday use, very handy and very smooth when applied on the lips. It doesn’t feel sticky and non-drying at the same time. I also love the “minty” scent of this balm and I just love it. You guys should also check this baby out.. I’m sure you’ll love them too and it comes in different shades as well and it’s also a drugstore product so it’s very easy to find.

Another lip product that I’ve been loving is this L’oreal (Colour Riche) Balm Pop in Tender Mauve shade #518.

Just by the name itself Tender Mauve, this shade is very pretty and can be worn at anytime of the day in other words it’s great for everyday use. You can wear this all by itself or use this as a base before you apply your favorite lip product. This balm is also very hydrating, non-drying of course, it has a very slight sweet smell…comfortable smell and the packaging it really neatΒ too. The only downside is, they’re only available in six different shades. But if you are into nude shade, then this is the shade for you. πŸ™‚

Miscellaneous item that completes my entire outfit:

IMG_0949

  • I’ve been wearing my Alex & Ani bracelet almost the entire month of March. They we’re a gift from my hubby last 2014 (Vday) and since then I have been loving them so much. The symbols are letter “K” which stands for “Kulit” and it used to be my nickname back home and in English that means “naughty” :P, the other charm says “My Other Half” and the third charm obviously is my January birth stone which is Garnet.
  • The second item that’s been loved so much is this double sided earrings that I got from NY&Co. (I’m sure you’ve seen this on my last Haul post March mini-haul!) and they may looked heavy or uncomfortable but Not At All.
  • Last jewelry item that has been my staple last month is my Michael Kors watch. This was my Vday present from hubby last February’2015. I thought he wasn’t paying attention when I was telling him that I want a watch thatΒ doesn’t go out of style and something that I can wear everyday with a pop of color.. And yes! I got what I wanted. I’m kinda’ tired of seeing those large face watches that’s why I asked for a classic look and I love this so much and it’s Rose Gold too which makes it even more classy. πŸ™‚

IMG_0950Β And finally who doesn’t like a little hint of lovely scent? This cologne has been my staple scent for years. This is from GAP. I used to love the “Dream” scent but since I’ve tried this, I’ve been stuck with it ever-since. I’m not sure if you guys have tried the colognes or perfumes from GAP Β but I suggest you should check them out. They last long and they are very affordable too.

Β Extras:

I just want to share with you my super cute and super fun partner in blogging. My sparkled…bedazzled cutie mouse!!!!

Like I said before, I wasn’t really a fan of Pink until my hubby got me hooked with it. He actually bought this for me as he knows I love anything sparkly (except my own “sparkles” hahaahhaβœŒοΈπŸ˜‰) and I love anything with stones ex. Rhinestones, Diamonds(if only i can afford), Swarovski and more.

First stop, Christmas Tree Shop.Β 
It wasn’t really my intention to buy something since hubby and I were just looking for a new wok.. Yes! A WoK for cooking..haha but I ended up buying these… Since, I’ve been wanting to purchase a new acrylic drawers anyway then hey!! Why not?? The cosmetic organizer only cost $3.99 (I used it to place my brushes and mascaras).

While the 3-drawer acrylic jewelry organizer only cost $9.99 and it’s perfect for my tiny vanity.πŸ‘πŸ‘

(We left Christmas Tree shop without the WoK though..we didn’t find what we wanted..😜)

2nd stop, Charming Charlie.
It’s like heaven whenever I check this place out.. If you are like me who loves fashion jewelry then this is your place! They sell clothes, shoes, bags and accessories of your choice! (Do I sound like a commercial endorser now? Hahahahaha)
While I was looking around, I saw my favorite sign that says “BUY 1 GET 1 FREE” (aaahhhhhhh😱😱😱😍😍😍) so here you go!
$6.99

$6.99
$7.99

3rd stop, Sephora.
And again, I never really planned of getting something but since I have been experiencing some “uugghh” “uuuhhlll” “yaaakkkk” sparkles on my face.. Yes! I named my pimples “SPARKLES”.. It’s true anyway, they just sparkled with or without make-up..lol
Since, I’ve been reading good reviews about the GlamGlow youthmud then why not try it??Hopefully this will work..πŸ™πŸ™
I also got some samples too! Isn’t it great?πŸ‘

Last stop, Walmart.
I only purchased two things, the Simple facial wipes..(this is my second pack ever and so far so good) it’s very gentle on my skin..
