Anastasia beverly hills Glow kit in Gleam (Replica)

Hellooooo I'm back again !! :) finally! we are now down to my last blog for this month of july. whooot! whoot!

Who wants to glow this coming august??
Who wants to slay the glow??
Who wants to look youthful?

If your answer is ME!! you'll definitely enjoy this blog.






Anastasia Beverly hills Glow kit line rattle the world of cosmetics. From their lipcreams, to diprow pomade, and now they are slaying the highlighter that will make you glow onto the top. We all know that Anastasia Beverly hills or simply ABH products are not that affordable for a person like me. The authentic glow kit almost cost Php 2,000-3,000 depending on the seller.  Honestly it is almost my 2-3weeks allowance and because of that we are easily hook up with the replicas.


LBC doesn't hold it carefully, it arrived crushed but I did my best to put the colors back into their pans.

The Glow kit line has 2 variance Gleam and that Glow. I got the Gleam which is good for the light to fair skintone. I bought it from shopee @kissntellco for only Php 180.00 (I will put the link below)

It is highly pigmented and buttery almost the same as the original (according to the other makeup hoarder who also got the original one) I already tried it and I must say this is the most convincing and good replicas I have. They said you can't actually tell where is the replica from the original because it is almost look alike. But because it is only replica or imitation I'm not sure with the ingredients if it is safe or not, but as I tried it, this doesn't cause me pimple or any allergic reaction knowing that I have a sensitive skin. But hey!! if you are cheapskate like me, it is a good steal :))



 I used it to highlight my brow-bone 

I used it to highlight my cheeks, nose-bridge and cupids-bow

FINAL VERDICT: I love the packaging, the price is very affordable, it doesn't have foul smell, very buttery and highly pigmented. I will rate it 4/5.

WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS? if you are a "BUDGETARIAN" like me but looking for a good highlighter this is a good one to start :)

let's reminisce

Hi dear loves!! :'* as I mention on my previous blog as a celebration of my 1st yr anniversary of being a makeup junkies. I will be sharing you my story on how I discovered the of world makeup.

so let's start to reminisce....


Back when I was in 3rd yr college (last yr) I remember I ordered red lipstick online that I keep until now, honestly I don't know what comes into my mind why all of a sudden I want to have a red lipstick. I don't even know what was the difference between matte, shimmer and satin finished like I know nothing. That time for me lipstick should be red so I got mine in super satin finished red lipstick. At first I was hesitate to use it at school coz' I am not really into lipstick person simply because I don't know how to use it hehehe :D yes! you read it right :) my nerdness had last 18 yrs. of my life. Until I got blush on, eyeliner, brushes and more lippies. :) I become more addicted to lippies since then, I got different lipcreams, and of course my favorite matte lipsticks :) I started to buy makeups 3 months after I got my 1st lipstick because I can't get enough of them. I bought more eyeliner, blushers brushes, concealer, contour, highlighter, eyeshadow palettes, falsies, powders and many more :) I started to watch different tutorial in youtube specifically nikkietutorials, sephora do's and dont's and many more. Those tutorials influenced me to try out and mimic what they are doing (so you can say social media is the pushing force) later on, I discovered different skin care routine too :) though I have my own skin care routine but not that big deal (if you get my point) :'p I didn't change my cleansing foam which is the anew 360° illuminating cleanser since I have used it for almost 4 yrs now :D (I will do a separate blog on how I do my skin care routine). 




MY FIRST EVER LIPSTICK

I have learned to put makeup one by one. On simple eyeliner to winged eyeliner, simple eyeshadow into blended eyeshadow, contouring, highlighting, baking, eyebrows on fleek and so on.. but I'm not saying that I am already a professional makeup artist or guru. I am just a simple makeup enthusiast/junkies who dreamed that someday I will become a makeup artist. I started playing on my SG makeups or may some people called it "fake makeups" before I don't have any issue or it's not a big deal for me to use "fake cosmetics" since I have a small allowance, I am not capable of purchasing branded or high-end makeups. But!! honestly I'm happy and I am a proud user of SG makeups :)) 

Now I'm starting to hoard local and branded makeups and I don't see any problem with that coz' in the first place it is a good investment for a makeup junkies like me. I have learned so many things because of makeups and blogging "I am more capable in socializing" I guess?? hahaha lol :'p :'p I met different people, sellers, online shops and even youtubers/vloggers, I found a new friends/family who loves makeup too :) and that's because of being a makeup lover "I have a busy life now outside the school" 

For the other people they saw makeups as a concealer, they saw it in a different way like it is a tool to deceived your beauty, to hide your imperfections. But for me its not, this is something would lift up your beauty, and not hiding them at all. Know matter what for me
blending is my cardio, makeup is my stress reliever, and my own kind of drug. 

just a little bit tips and word of wisdom for the people out there who wants to be a blogger and to try out  makeups. "Start now! be confident, in-vibe the positive aura, don't mind crab people around you, and keep practicing :) 

 START NOW! 

 BE CONFIDENT!

AND KEEP PRACTICING <3

and that's for today's blog, Hope you enjoy my story :'** byeee..

HOT or Not? (Iwhite bb cream full review)


Hi! dear loves :* I've been quiet for almost 3 weeks now. I think you have an idea why :D "school stuffs are everywhere" flying around (lol!)and oh! I want to tell you guys that this month of july I celebrate my 1st yr or my 1st anniversary being a makeup junkies/makeup enthusiast so before this month will end. I will try my best to do 3 blogs just for you loves. So without further ado lets start this blog :) 

So for today's blog I wanted to share you my experience and thoughts on Iwhite BB CREAM. Is it HOT or NOT?? 


Iwhite BB cream promises makeup and skincare in one, with 10 plants extract and has a SPF 10 PA+. It cost 24.50 per sachet which for me is quiet pricey knowing that the sachet has only 4ml that can be used up to 4-6 times depending on how much you squeeze the product out


(Photo not mine) since I transfer mine into a clear small jar, and I forgot to take a picture

left (light), right (beige) this is the packaging of Iwhite bb cream you can definitely identify where in the 2's are the light and beige.


The Iwhite bb cream has 2 shade to choose from the light shade which is (good for light to fair skintone) and the beige one is (good for medium to dark skintone) 


MY EXPERIENCE
So here's my experience last sunday I decided to use this bb cream to try out if the rave is true. The product itself is very promising. I love the smell (smells like tootie frutie) the color is blend-able, the coverage is light to medium that can cover your blemishes, the light shade suits on my skintone BUT!after an hour I noticed a small bumps on my both cheeks I thought, It is just normal since I have this similar reaction when I used cream products for the first time. The next day I used it again having the thought of "it is just normal" but when I get back home from school I noticed that the small bumps were not just only on my cheeks but onto my chin area too luckily I don't have on my forehead. I wash my face right away and I exfoliate but the small bumps are still on my face. I panicked, I used my facial masks in cucumber it lessen the the size of the bumps a little, but still not satisfied.:'( so, I have decided to stop using this bb cream and go back to my routine, and I do a research thank you to my tmur family who shared their experiences using this Iwhite bb cream and I found out that most of them breakouts too :( the next morning the bumps are started to swell the redness was really obvious I have no choice but to go to school with the red swelling bumps. The next day after they become pimples :'( and the size got doubled. The first day was horrible like I don't want to go to school so I did my best to conceal them. 




Thursday night I put a cream on my pimples this cream helps to dry your pimples just in 1 day. friday morning my pimples are already dry and then saturday morning some of the pimples gone but leaves a pimple marks :( sucks!! and today sunday I can say my face is 80% healed up and my problem now is the pimple marks :( 

I just found out that those bumps are rashes and they become 
pimples.


MY THOUGHTS
Here's my thought not all the users of Iwhite bb cream experienced my story. Some users tell that it doesn't caused them negative reaction like rashes, allergies etc.. Since I have a sensitive skin maybe some of the chemical ingredients of Iwhite bb cream triggered my skin caused me to breakouts. 

FINAL VERDICT: I love the smell, I love the packaging, the price is quiet pricey,I love the coverage but it caused me breakouts :(

WILL I RECOMMEND THIS? if you don't have a sensitive skin might probably yes :) but if you notice unusual reaction stop using it.

WILL I BUY AGAIN? so sad, but no :(
