Mascara -Canmake - Eyelash Essence
peachroad 3/7/2012 12:11:00 PM
They don't sell canmake here in my city so I asked my friend to buy this for me in Malaysia. This stuff really works. When I went to Japan, the first on my shopping list is this tube! I bought 2 of these. I have long lashes to begin with but I want to have thicker lower lashes. Although my upper lashes still has the same length even after a month of daily applications, I've noticed that it made my lashes thicker-both upper and lower. Happy with this product and will buy it again and again. I got a lot of compliments from using this product. My simplest makeup routine would be this, a bronzer, and my favorite lipstick/lip balm. Love it!

Fragrances -Ralph Lauren - Ralph HOT
peachroad 5/27/2011 12:02:00 PM
I got this as a gift from a friend. The first time I smelled this, i knew instantly that this is my kind of scent. On me, it smelled like coconuts and hints of vanilla. I read from one member that it helped her sleep at night after spraying this on, and i got that same effect on me! I love this scent, it makes me think of going to the beach. Staying power isn't that good though. I like the bottle, easy to carry around.

Lipstick -Palladio - Herbal Lipstick
peachroad 3/26/2011 11:32:00 AM
I'm asian and I get tanned easily which is why it's kinda difficult for me to get a nice lip color, or choose any kind of make up for that matter. anyway, I really like this lipstick. I got it in Roseberry color. I know that i 'm good with berry colors and rose color but roseberry is just the perfect combination! I'm filipino and i got this from beauty bar for 350 pesos. It's a great choice if you want something bright and cute. I like how it glides on my lips and so creamy. My sister complimented how rich my lips look and it doesnt settle on the lines...just smooth lips. Packaging is not really good, well i think it is boring. But the product is hella nice and i'm definitely buying one again! Definite HG for me.

Misc Beauty Tools -Anna Sui - Eyelash Curler
peachroad 8/8/2010 9:58:00 AM
I have a Bobbi Brown eyelash curler, Shu Uemura, and this Anna Sui curler. I'm so impressed on how it works! This is the best from all the curlers I have mentioned. I have quite long Asian lashes and I have big eyes. This one fits perfect for my eye shape. Who can resist the nice black and purple color? I love it! I will repurchase after the extra silicone refill pad is worn out.

Lipstick -Mary Kay - Signature Lipstick Whipped Berries
peachroad 8/4/2010 10:15:00 AM
I like this color and it compliments my complexion. It looks elegant. With a no make up look, I don't think this will be a good lipstick to use. I like to use this when I wear bright eyeshadows. The packaging is nice. The formula is non-sticky and glides easily. We do not have any Mary Kay stores here in the Philippines so I don't think I can repurchase.

Powder -Unlisted Brand - in2it Oil Control 2-way powder foundation
peachroad 7/23/2010 2:12:00 PM
This is a very nice 2-way powder foundie that keeps oilies at bay! I love how finely milled the product is and I also like the pink packaging. I got mine in warm beige and is perfect on my skin. I used this on top of my BB cream (currently using Elianto whitening multiplex). Love everything about it. This powder foundie is very popular in the Philippines. A nice and affordable foundie for an Asian girl like me :) Will repurchase, most def!

Concealers -Artdeco - Camouflage Cream (any color)
peachroad 7/20/2010 11:01:00 AM
I've applied this as an undereye concealer and I think this is the best concealer I have ever tried so far. It really matches my skintone! I got mine in Neutralizing Yellow shade. I am Asian and I have horrible dark circles. I got it for 50% off which is really lucky for me! It costed me around 4$ to get this. Then I got myself the refillable magnetic box which costs around 6$ so I can house it in. Very nice. If I get a little bit tanned I think I will mix this with other concealers that are darker to match my skintone. Sadly, ARTDECO will no longer be available in the Philippines though. So I will surely stock up on this one.

Misc Beauty Tools -The Body Shop - Facial Brush
peachroad 7/8/2010 2:34:00 AM
I'm using the Body shop's tea tree line for 2 weeks already but the results are just okay. However, after pairing this facial brush with the Body Shop's Tea Tree facial wash, I found noticeable results the following morning. My usual problem areas forehead and chin are incredibly smooth. I rinsed it but didnt but put the cap on right away. When I know it's already dry, that's the time I put the cap back on. I bought it for 165 pesos in the Philippines which is about 3$USD.

Lotions/ Creams -Nivea - Q10 Night Cream
peachroad 6/15/2010 4:43:00 PM
My skin has pretty much been abused with late night outs. This night cream makes my skin look smooth in the daytime as if I slept well. My skin got smoother and I have gotten compliments from my friends. I used this together with the Nivea Q10 Anti-wrinkle eye cream but when I finished the tube, I just used this on my under eye area too. Smell is okay with me, I actually like it. I've been using it since last January 2010 and I'm halfway to finishing it. In some days when it is a bit rainy, I skip my sunblock and just use this under my make up.

Lipstick -E.L.F. - Mineral Lipstick in Ripe Rose
peachroad 6/14/2010 2:50:00 PM
I'm Asian and very tan (too much of the beach I guess). I just love this lipstick. I have bought this for 359 pesos at the SM. This is like my staple lipstick and I dab a little of Revlon's Beyond Natural Cream lipgloss in Berry on top---perfect pouty lips for me. This is the best seller here in the Philippines (according to the sales lady). I'm lucky to have the last tube.

This is my first foundation brush. I love how it glides on my skin. It is very soft. I have washed mine thrice already and still no shedding. Very impressed. I use it to apply my BB cream.

Fragrances -Burberry - Burberry Classic EDP
peachroad 6/10/2010 9:55:00 PM
My first bottle from Burberry is Burberry Light. I only bought it because I thought I would get the same scent but it is a far cry from Burberry Classic. They didnt have Burberry Classic available and so I thought I had the next best thing. I sure was wrong! I cannot remember anymore what Burberry Light smells but I bought myself another Burberry; Burberry Classic this time and it was love! Right now I'm using Ralph Lauren's Romance but I'm thinking of using this again. It's been a little rainy here in the Philippines. I think this is great to wear in cooler months.

Lipstick -E.L.F. - Mineral Lipstick
peachroad 6/8/2010 11:38:00 PM
I fell in love with my Ripe Rose! It was such a wearable color for me. I'm asian and I stay away from colors that are too pink. Ripe rose has the perfect tinge of red. I also got Cool Coral which is nice. It seems like it is a bit of orange shimmers and pink. I also wear it but not as often as Ripe Rose. I bought this for 359 pesos at SM Watsons.
