Lippies and First Make-Up Choice

  I would like to share with you all my budget-friendly choice of make-up. You could say I'm a Maybelline girl. It's a foreign brand, from the US. I think I started using it when I was in college. I started with Johnson & Johnson compact powder, a few Avon products, and then I shifted to Maybelline.

My first compact powder was from Maybelline, clear smooth shine free face powder in nude beige. It is in a light green compact. I like it because it has SPF-15. Then, the foundation that I have used for years is the dream satin liquid foundation.

I have also tried using other make-up brands like The Body Shop, lip and cheek tint which was so popular back then, but I do think they are really expensive, and the make-up is not suited for me.

Other lippies that I have used for a long time was from Maybelline, I really love their Water-Shine lipstick MF21, and my not so latest purchase from them was their colorsensational 410 in Blissful Berry. I like smooth moisture rich lipsticks.

I also have an Avon lipstick, True Color Perfectly Smooth Lipstick SL100 in Playful Rose color. It also glides nicely, and smoothly. With regards to the lip color, I prefer the dark plum shade. I think it is a mixture of red and violet.

A few months ago I have also tried a local cosmetic brand, Ever Bilena because of Ms. Kris Aquino. She launched her own style of affordable but high-quality make-up. I'm not really a fan of Matte lipsticks. I just bought it because its Ms.Kris Aquino's line of make-up. Plus, I like the nice pink color. Also, the lipstick is not your usual matte lipstick that is dry. It is somewhat smooth when applying.

I'm currently using Korean make-up brands now. Check out my upcoming reviews.
