Nichido Foundation Stick

During my recent trip to the mall I have included some Nichido items on my purchases. Nichido has been one of the brands I trust when it comes to affordable-local make-up. I have used some Nichido products before and liked them. It is not the best product when it comes to staying power but with how cheap the product is I wouldn't mind applying for the whole day.

Another Nichido item exceeded my expectation. It is the Nichido Foundation Stick. I'll be reviewing the color Beige because it suits my skintone perfectly well.

Let me show you the swatches first.

Beige - with flash

Beige - without flash
It looks lighter than my skin tone but when perfectly blended it wouldn't leave a trace that I have anything on my face.

Bare face


I put the foundation directly from the stick. I put it on my forehead, nose, cheek and chin. Blend it well using my fingers. You can use a brush but I think my fingers does the job perfectly.


With foundation on
 It instantly remove light blemishes on my face and gives an even skintone. It doesn't feel heavy after application, I didn't feel the need to apply a face powder because it gives a nice dewy finish but to make it last longer I applied a little amount of face powder. It doesn't have a mattifying effect, I would advise applying powder if you have really oily skin.

With foundation and face powder
What I like:

*Light to Medium coverage, can hide blemishes and pimple marks
* Dewy finish but not sticky
* The shade suits my skintone perfectly
* Price Php150.00 for 9ml of product
* locally available (watsons and SM department store)


What I don't Like:

- Smell, it smells like Chingchung-Su
- Packaging is flimsy. It kinda loose when I twistedit.
- it doesn't stay long about 2-3 hours with blotting powder

If you are looking for light to medium coverage foundation at an affordable price and staying power is not a big deal then you should give this foundation stick a try. Although this will work better on person with normal to dry skin I will still use it at home or if I'll go out to get some groceries. Staying power can be extended by blotting with oil control film and applying powder. It started to oil up on me after 2 hours but I didn't mind because I like the dewy effect.

I don't love it but don't hate it either. It is an ok product for me if you are on a budget but still want to have an even toned skin. For its price and beautiful finish you're money wouldn't go to waste.

Nothings Gonna Change My Love

"Nothing's gonna change my love for you. I hope you know by now how much I love you One thing you can be sure of I'll never ask for more than your love." This is my favorite song. I keep this song inside my heart because I know that one day I will sing this song for someone until you finally came. You gave meaning to this song. It's not just a lyrics for me now but it's a real emotion from me to you. I can't imagine how life would be without your presence. Every single day without you is so different and very difficult for me. I miss you in every breathing I take, in every words I say and in everything I do. Im missing you right now as I am right here on the bed writting this post for our anniversary. First, I want to thank you for being patient and for keeping your love and your trust on me while I was away. I know it has been so hard for you to let the days over without me. It's hard for you as much as it's hard for me. But those days mak

Nichido Length and Curl Mascara

I have used this Mascara  for half a year so now I think it's time to bring this baby to the spotlight. Here is another review from a local brand Nichido, this time it's a mascara. I was browsing through racks and racks of make-up looking for a perfect mascara that I can wear everyday. I don't want to spend too much for a mascara because they tend to dry up fast, that's base on experience from other mascaras I've tried. I was checking Nichido counter when the SA approached me. She gave me several mascaras to choose from. Others are just not for my liking because it doesn't hold curls or it make my eyelashes clumpy and heavy after application. She told me to try Nichido Length and Curl Mascara. She got me when she said that it doesn't  clump eyelashes and it won't dry fast. I gave it a try and I like it. It holds curl and gives additional length to my eyelashes. It has small hairs that would stick to your eyelashes for added lenght but I haven

The First 365 Days

Life is a never ending journey. I feel so blessed to have found you while I am walking on this road. Who said relationships are easy? It never was and it never will. Our relationship is no exception. It's hard but we always find a way to make it work. You find ways to be closer to me even if walls are built between us. Without you I will never understand what it is to trully love without exception. I will never know how it feels to trully love without limitations. I will never know how it feels like to be loved by you. You make each and everyday so special for both of us. Some days are better than the others. Some days are painful than the others. Few days were full of sadness and pain than the others. Some days are cloudy and rainy. But I could only remember those days you light up my face. I could say that you make each and everyday so bright. You and your love gives me so much happiness. My life was just normal before you came. When you came, you make it extra-ordinary. I
