JULY FAVORITES

Mr. Sun is taking a vacay somewhere in Greece and Mr. Rain is taking over. It’s still sunny in Cebu but it is mostly cloudy and rainy during noon and night. It has been crazy adjusting to this insane weather. Should I wear BB cream or not? Should I just stick to sunscreen? Decisions after decisions on my makeup choices can really take a toll on me.(#firstworldproblems) No matter how hard, my decision is final when it comes to my monthly favorites. Want to know what I have been loving this month? Read on!

JUNE FAVORITES

 

Here comes another round of my monthly favorites and I can't wait to share with you what I have been loving, dying, breathing recently. Two months to go and we are nearing the BER season already. I can't wait. But first, check out my raves this month.

"NO MAKE-UP" MAKEUP LOOK: SUMMER EDITION

On days when I don't want to wear any makeup, I still want to look presentable and put together. There are only two makeup routines that I do--full-on makeup or no makeup at all. BUT, with the summer heat and with the fear of aging, I have grown to love sunscreen nowadays. Guys, you need to grab one because you can't go bare nowadays. You need to start protecting your skin. So for this post, I will be sharing you how I do my "no makeup" makeup routine without adding a crap ton of makeup underneath but still look natural and fresh. This is a lengthy post. So yeah, grab a snack.

*I literally just got out of the shower hence the uncombed hair. So let's just ignore that.  I usually comb my hair when I am done doing my makeup. WARNING!! Please do not do this when you are going to be photographed because this will definitely create a whitecast.

KEEP OR SKIP SERIES: iWHITE KOREA BB. HOLIC EVERYDAY BB CREAM

iWhite Korea BB. Holic BB Cream // Watsons // Php 24.50

I have been ranting non-stop about our weather here in Cebu that I almost ran out of energy to put on makeup(eek!).  You take an extra hour to perfect your base and then after an hour or so, poof it’s gone. With that, I have been forced to hunt for a BB cream that can really withstand the insane weather in Cebu. I am personally not a fan of BB creams because I find that they don’t stay longer than a foundation would. I hate retouching because I feel that it’s such a waste of product. But, I have discovered the trick to prolonging the wear of your BB cream(which I will share here) so all I need to do is find one that is very lightweight and gives you more of a demi-matte finish.  Lo and behold, this 24-peso BB cream from iWhite Korea is just heaven-sent because it is not only affordable but it claims to provide natural looking coverage. Hmm, but is it worth it? Let’s see..
