San San Cosmetics NEW Products Release

 


San San Cosmetics, the brainchild of HBC has been around for years!  I have tried several of their products in the past and there were a few hit and miss.  I mean I can't complain, if you are starting out on makeup and want some good, quality makeup without breaking the bank, you may look into this but their newest collection deserves a whole lot of attention!

I  mean I have all the shades sent to me via PR box but I only get to try one of each so keep in mind that this is just my initial thoughts!  If you want a specific product in-depth review, feel free to comment here and I'll happily do so!

The 2020 makeup collection consists of the following: 

San San HD Stellar Eyes Color Cream Pens (Php195.00 each)
San San HD Lip Crayons (Php225.00)
HD Ethereal Glow Highlighters (Php192.00 each)

Strokes Beauty Lab: The Brow Artist Collection First Try

 


Strokes Beautylab: The Brow Artist Collection First Try

Hi AMW Friends!
You all know I love drawing my brows.  Whenever I have them drawn, I get compliments on the shape and how full it was!  I guess that is my most "flexed" part of my face!  :P

So if you ask me, YES, I still gets excited about new brow products even after more than 10 years of trying various brands!

The Brow Collection includes: Microblade Pen, Brow Painter, Brow Sculptor Duo, 
Brow Colorist and Brow Fixer


Recently, Instagram was flooded with a new brow brand called Strokes BeautyLab.  I mean all the girls posing their photos look great!  But what got me interested with the brand is how even non makeup wearers are starting to look like they have professional-looking brows!  

And you all know me, I have to give these products a try as well!  So I unboxed everything and did a quick swatch for you guys just in case you are interested in investing on good brow products.  And to keep everything simplified, I created another video discussing on the usage of each product and you'll know which particular product (or products) you should get!

Body Fantasies Has Disinfectant Properties!



I have seen these Body Fantasies scents in SM Department stores several years ago --- I was still in College back then so that was more than a decade ago, or 2 decades ago :P   

When the brand sent me these products during lockdown, I was one of those few Beauty Bloggers who really read on ingredients list because ---

1. I have sensitive skin.
2. I like to review products so I really take notice on their main ingredients.

One thing that really caught my attention is the presence of 70% Ethyl Alcohol.  I mean, I'm not the type who would advertise and share to everyone to use these in replace of alcohol.  But one nice thought is that a Beauty Item can help sanitize - which is a perfect item especially during these times.

I also took a small peek at their Facebook page and felt a sense of happiness when I saw how the brand actively helps Frontliners by donating a lot of these products to several hospitals!  Though these items are not exactly items that hospitals REALLY need, these are the types of items that are on the category of "Unsung heroes".  Items that are deem to be pushed aside during hard times but can really make a small difference and a smile on anyone's face whenever used as gifts!

Can you just imagine how hot these days are and how nice it is to sniff something really amazing on a bad day?  --- well I could be wrong, but that's just me!

Again,  keep in mind that I won't replace alcohol with these items in my household but they are indeed "added" in my feel good items!

I may sound or feel like a less busier person during ECQ but I am actually the same busy gal as ever after the 2nd week of Lockdown. 

After getting used to the "new normal", I went back on my feet doing the things I love to do and more!  I continued my "work from home" jobs while managing the household.  Because of that, I tend to stay in my room for longer periods of time doing research and answering back emails as I do various calls (lots of concentration needed I tell you!).

I also cook more than usual, you can see that on my stories!  After cooking, I would go back to my room and sit at my office corner and can still smell "food" lingering inside the room and my clothing.  I mean, that would kill ANY working mood I got left! 

So this is my tiny secret to energize in between random tasks.   I tried spritzing Body Fantasies not only on my clothing but I like to spritz a few amount on pillows and stuffed toys and voila!  Instant pick-me-upper!

Generation Happy Skin Holiday Collection Thoughts


Kathryn Bernardo came out with her 2nd Generation Happy Skin collection.  The first one was easy to love and I can't imagine not loving the Holiday Collection.

On initial thoughts, I love the shades!  Happy Skin has always been earning my thumbs up when it comes to colors/shades that works for us Filipinas (even non-Filipinas!).  The perfect pinkish browns, reddish browns, well, watch and see for yourself!


The whole collection will be available in ALL Happy Skin boutiques starting October 4, 2019!
