in2it makeup base, cg blush, artdeco e/s base, PAC eyebrow kit

Again , a long overdue post about make-ups I bought. I tried using Monistat as my make-up primer but I'm one of those unlucky ones who had pimple and blackhead breakouts so I discontinued using it. In2it has a sheer radiance make-up base that I tried and it worked well for me. It's a water based moisturiser with radiant pearl powder that adds radiance to your face and significantly improves the staying power of make-up. Same as Monistat this also has dimethicone and I haven't had any breakouts with this. It sells for less than P250 at Landmark.

Covergirl has their TRUcheeks blush that has 3 different shades (blush and contouring)."Three blushes in one compact, TruCheeks Blush perfectly matches your skin tone for a natural, no makeup look. It is light weight, blendable and dermatologically tested" - covergirl.com The SA suggested this color for my morena skin tone but I'm not used to not seeing my blush so I tend to apply my Maybelline dream mousse blush on top of it. Hopefully I'll get some tips from the workshop on how to apply this kind of blush.

Jheng inspired me to buy the Artdeco Eyeshadow Base and PAC Eyebrow Kit. I saw the reviews on her site and I'd like to try them out.

Artdeco is a German product and they cater to the make-up artist segment (well that's according to the SA at SM Makati). They have a 10% off until the 25th of October so if you're planning to buy this I suggest you do it now. This eyeshadow base considerably improves the durability, colour intensity and luminescence of powder eyeshadow and makes it waterproof. It has vitamin E and bisabolol. What I liked with this is that it stays on for hours. I apply make-up at 6 am and it stays put for like 12 + hours without retouch. I also tried this with Bless and her make-up lasted longer unlike when I tried the Elianto e/s base with her make-up.

"Strike up your way to the center stage with a fabulous eyebrow form that catch up the attention. A compressed eyebrow kit with applicator to reveal your true Diva star struck eyebrow. Excellent color scheme providing you variable nuances and effect." I gathered that PAC is a French brand manufactured in Indonesia. People think that it's a MAC dupe but it's not. It's a different brand and I've yet to try this one coz I'm still trying to figure out how to apply it. I tried using the brush included but for some reason I'm having a hard time using it. Good thing I'll be able to see Jheng and ask about it. Yehey! make-up workshop today and I can't wait to learn new things. I'll update you soon.
