Shiseido Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover Review

Remember my post about Shiseido Makeup Workshop with Ms Angela Boh? When I got home from the event, I found a 30ml sample bottle of Shiseido Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover included in the press kit.After a couple of use, I am ready to share my experience with the product.

K-Palette 1 Day Lash Perm Long Curl Mascara Black Waterproof

I am so happy today because my Japan Visa was finally approved! Yey! DH and I will push through with our Japan vacation this year... woot! We will have another winter holiday just like last year in Korea! There's a lot of planning to do and I am so excited!

Speaking of Japan, a few weeks ago, a packaged arrived at my doorstep from Beautybox Corp. , the local distributor of K-Palette and Fairydrops Japan ; )

with K-Palette 1 Day Lash Perm Long Curl Mascara PhP 895

The package contained the following:

• K-Palette 1 Day Lash Perm Long Curl Mascara
• Fairydrops Volume Burst Mascara (Waterproof Type)
• Fairydrops Volume Burst Mascara (Film Type)

Now, I can't use all three mascaras simultaneously so I have to choose only one. I got curious with K-Palette 1 Day Lash Perm Long Curl Mascara that's why I opened it first. To know all the products that I used in the photo above and my review, read after the break...

Gift Guide: Shiseido Camellia Compact

A few weeks ago, Shiseido sent over a package containing the most coveted item from their Autumn/Winter 2012 collection - the Limited Edition Camellia Compact. Instead of just reviewing it, I decided to include it as one of the items on Gift Guide because this compact is perfect for women with exquisite taste in makeup.

Shiseido Camellia Compact 6.5 g (0.22 OZ.) PhP 1998

I know many women will love it as much as I do because the powder has a smooth, high quality texture, and its ingredients give it a velvety, dewy feeling during application.

I Heart Charm Essentials Angled Kabuki Buffer Brush + Other Makeup Brush

 Newsflash! Charm Essential is now selling Charm Travel Pro Sonia Makeup Brush Set.

I seldom see Sophie Uy, the blogger behind http://beautynomics.com. But when I see her, she would usually hand over her newest beauty product. So, when I saw her during Shiseido's Makeup Workshop last September, she gave me not just one but two new brushes from her Charm Essentials Collection.

It was Sophie who introduced me to makeup brushes. Before that, I used my fingers to blend makeup (eyeshadow, bb cream) on my face. I still used my fingers sometimes - old habits die hard ; p But there are several Charm brushes that became essential to my makeup kit - Charm Angled Kabuki Buffer Brush, Powder Brush and Crease Blending Brush are just some of them. The last two brushes that I have mentioned are part of the Vegan Makeup Brush Collection.

You can view the makeup brushes after the break. I have also included Charm's newest baby - Retractable Powder Brush. It's handy, versatile and a perfect travel companion!
