So since my friends, cousins and sisters have been obsessed with make-up and have successfully influenced me to watch YouTube videos of make-up artists, be it a local or an international one. I found it really fun and weirdly, calming. Lol. It also made me want to try it someday (the video thing). And since I can't do it yet, I'll just be blogging about what's inside my vanity kit which I use on a day to day basis (I'm including also the 'pang-date' essentials).
Thankfully, my face isn't choosy so it doesn't really matter if the product is cheap as long as it works for me then I'm good.
So to start off, I actually use foundation on my skin. So when I don't have any ganap, I just use Maybelline Dream Satin (B4)
However, if there's a ganap, I use Fenty Beauty by Tita Riri. Aside from it being super expensive (which is primarily the reason why I don't use it everyday), its coverage is really thick (but it feels super light) and I don't think I'll need it whenever I go to the office to face my computer. Lol.
I'm using shade 230.
After the founder, I top it off with this pressed powder from Revlon. It's from Paul's tita and although I believe she does not know my shade, it really goes perfectly well with my face. I also prefer using a brush for it since it's more even if used this way (charot!).
To put color into my face, I either use the Ever Bilena liquid blush on (darker shade). Or I'll use the Canmake blush-on (CL08) that Paul's mom for me from Japan.
I think I have blogged about my lippies collection before and that I have more than 20. Lol.
So the ones below are the ones I use on a daily basis. I really love the Lakme 9to5 (Blush Velvet)lippie my friends got for me from their India Trip. It has a pink shade and goes soft matte right after putting.
Or if I don't feel like putting any lipstick (which is most of the time), I just settle with a really good lip tint from Laurent Cosmetics. I only use Badgirl. I really like it because it does not dry my lips.
But during date nights and special occasions where I want to wear something special, I usually opt for something red. Recently, my favorite has changed to a shade of pink again and that is Benefit's They're Real in Lusty Rose.
Then to add some accent for my eyes, I use Maybelline Lush Sensational and a curlash to beautify my lashes.
And whenever I feel like doing so, I also put on eyeliner. I use Elf's black liner with Shadow Smoke.
We're almost done! Next is some scent. So aside from lipsticks, I also have a range of perfume collection. Most recently though, I only pick either one of the 3 below for my day to day smell.
And I just realized that three below are gifts to me. Lol
Bodyshop Fijian and Lotus and Smoky Rose (from Paul) and Bath&Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar (from my Uncle).
Date night would be a different case, the below is my favorite ever since because my Paul loves the smell of it. It's Issey Miyake Florale.
So yeah that's about it. If you're wondering why I don't do anything to my kilay, that's because I have thick brows and I just feel like it's fine without me needing to do anything to it. Lol! Kilay is life!
And though I really took effort to enumerate what I use to look presentable, there are also days when I don't feel like putting anything at all. Lol. I think we all have those days. :)
Oh oh oh and btw, before I finish, I want to introduce to you the newest member of our family!
Everybody, meet my applehead Chihuahua (so so so tiny!), KNIGHT! <3
Ugh, isn't he the cutest? We already have our KNIGHT-ly routines. <3
