I was in SM MOA last Sunday and of course, one cannot go to SM and not visit the cosmetics department! It was jam-packed because SM was having a sale, but I braved the pushing and shoving, just so I can go around and check out the stuff that is not in SM Makati.

Lookie what I found!

Let me tell you about the eye shadow I discovered recently. I was at Watson's looking for sponges and my eye caught Ever Bilena's Eyeshadow Quartet. A beautiful eyeshadow palette that is composed entirely of matte eyeshadows. I just fell in love with it immediately!

Tonight was Kerastase's big Elixir Ultime launch at R Space. I will be blogging about it in MegaStyle so watch out for it!

Anyhoo, guests were required to wear either pink, violet, gold or green. I wore a green and violet off-shoulder romper, and of course, makeup and nails to boost:

I got a lot of compliments for my makeup look. Yes my dears, the eyeshadow I am wearing is from none other than Fanny Serrano. As I have mentioned in my previous FS single eyeshadow review post, I really love it's blendability, texture, and color intensity. Never mind that their selection doesn't include a whole lot of matte shades because the shimmer shadows are just FAB!

Eyeshadow color is Lavender Dream, and my nail polish is Green Minded from Caress.

Try it out ladies!

A friend of mine gave me a bunch of Fashion 21 stick eyeshadow/liner (P85.00 each) to try and do a how-to. I had a shoot today, and while I was putting my makeup on before I left, I recorded myself using the sticks for the how-to, and I will write the review after I got home tonight so I could test the makeup if it really stuck.

First, let me tell you about the product.

The packaging is nice. The pen is mechanical so you can screw the body of the pen to hide the tip and cover it so it wouldn't make a mess in your makeup kit incase the cap comes off. That is a plus for me.

Now comes the testing of the product:


The packaging looks promising. Of course, I am again judging the product by it's packaging (Hahaha!) but let's see later after I have worn it as soon as I leave the house until I get home tonight.

I am one of those beauty junkies who have to get their hands on something as soon as a new item hits the shelves.

I was walking passed the ELF makeup counter at SM, promising myself that I was there only to buy nail polish remover. But I came across their Flawless Eyeshadow quads. Since they didn't have testers, I HAD to get one to try. Since most of my palettes are mostly nudes, browns, and golds. I decided to try a little bit bold to review about and do a how-to video on.

The packaging I would say is very attractive. I love that the eyeshadow colors are bold and it rather looked highly pigmented. So, I got the Sea Escape quad which consists of blues and silvers.

I did a how-to video on this quad and I must say. I was very disappointed with the texture of the eyeshadow. It was very chalky, and pigment was very low. You could have finished the entire pan of eyeshadow and still, you wouldn't have achieved the color you are aiming for.

The product falls off or "disappears" after a while and you will have to keep retouching if you were to get this product.

Maybe I just got the wrong color. I will try a different color tomorrow and see if there will be a difference! So verdict says? 2/5.
