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.

My First Secosana Bags Purchase

Hello pretty ladies! It's the start of the week and I'm hoping all of you are having a great day. I just want to share my first purchase of Secosana Bags. I've seen a lot of women wearing bags from Secosana and because of that I tried to keep away from the brand thinking that I'll bumped with a person wearing the same bag as mine. But yesterday, My husband and I went to SM North for the 3-Days Sale and oh  my! Most of the items are on 10%-50% off. Not only that, new items that are being sold at it's regular price during weekdays are also on SALE! I planned on buying a new bag so I checked around the Department store to see what I can get. I then saw the sign from Secosana showing 50% off of their Bags on display. I checked all colors and designs before I decided what to buy (I actually get my Moms' opinion before buying the bags). Here are the photos. I got this for P690 (regular price P1399.75) I got this for P650 (regular price P899.75) ...

Milani Single and Quad eyeshadow

Hello pretties! How have you all been doing lately? I've been busy thinking if I should get a MAC eyeshadow palette or MAC brushes. But when I heard from youtube gurus that Milani have nice colors of eyeshadows which are pretty the same of MAC I went ahead and check google. Here are my top finds for you.  They call this palette Exotic Berries I think that it's because most of the colors in this quad have pink shades. I haven't tried wearing all of the colors from this one and I feel excited to show how it looks. I apologize if I'm not able to take swatches of this. My camera washes off the color when I took the pictures. My favorite color here is the second one from the first row. It has a nice silver color with a little bit of pink shimmer on it but not too shimmery. Next is what they call Sedona Sunset. I can use it when I want that neutral eye look. I also have few single eyeshadow. From left: Almondine, Sheer Sand and Desert Sun. From Lef...

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...
