MAYBELLINE BB CREAM

Hello faithful reader. Have you subscribed to my RSS feed yet?

I’ve been using 3w solution BB cream for a month now. It feels very light in my face and I can see that my face is glowing. Since I’m a MAYBELLINE user girl I decided to buy and try MAYBELLINE’s BB CREAM to match my MAYBELLINE MINERAL FOUNDATION.

As always MAYBELLINE brought out the beauty in me. It’s a perfect combination to my MAYBELLINE MINERAL FOUNDATION. In putting on MAYBELLINE BB CREAM I instantly saw the difference, it lightens and smoothens my skin and sometimes I don’t need to put on my concealer because it already did the job.

MAYBELLINE BB CREAM also serves as my day time moisturizer. I love it because it has SPF 26 (Sun Protection Factor). Base on a blog I read the number 26 signifies the intensity of the sun protection. For example you are expose to the sun, your skin will have 26 minutes of protection before you get suburn (source: HERE)

I also love the packaging because it fits my kikay kit fairly well.

Maybelline Minerals

Yesterday I decided to buy and try MAYBELLINE MINERALS because of the good reviews I read from RIA JOSE’s SHOPPINGERA. I went to ROBINSONS DEPARTMENT STORE and looked for the make-up section. Immediately as I was just looking around the sales lady for MAYBELLINE gave me a huge smile and accommodated me really well.  She let me try the minerals which she taught fitted my skin tone and surely it fitted perfectly.

The shade the lady suggested was DARK OCHRE. I was apprehensive at first because I thought if I put in my concealer would the powder mineral cover it?

Then the lady goes on suggesting that I also buy the BLUSH, I asked for the different shades and decided to buy a brownish shade for my blush.

Since my favorite Maybelline Watershine Pure Lipstick almost running it’s last tint I decided to buy a new one also. I love this lipstick because it gives my lips a natural shine and gloss. My favorite shade is the natural it gives my lips a natural look and looks like I’m not wearing any lipstick at all.

This morning I decided to give the MINERALS a try. So, I did my usual routine before putting on make-up and was putting on my concealer and then the thought hit me would the loose powder mineral cover up my concealer. Apprehensively, I started to put the mineral foundation by using the brush that came with it. I was surprised that it perfectly covered the concealer evenly and lightly. Although I love the minerals I do not love the brush that came with it. It kind of makes my skin irritated because of its materials. I am so used to my very soft BODY SHOP BRUSH.

Todays experience made me LOVE minerals!!! It gave me a very light feeling. As if I was not wearing any make-up at all. Honestly, sometimes other make-up products feels heavy. Since, Im planning to put simple make-up everyday what a perfect product this is for me. And as I discussed in my previous post “MIX TIPS from KIKAY” that Mineral makeup is the safest because it adheres to the natural oils in a person’s skin and doesn’t seep into the pores.

Here’s my before and after look: (shy pa ako to show this pero what the H…. ) hehehehehe
