The Baby's of Maybelline


I cannot understand why my photos look "muddy" and extra grainy when I upload them here...anyone experience this too?  It's already bugging me big time and already applied all the solutions that I searched in google but failed!  Anyway, let's talk about the two babies of Maybelline that I have.

Maybelline Baby Skin
Poreless.  Baby Smooth.  Lightweight.  Breathable.
"On contact, translucent gel melts on skin and instantly erase pores, imperfections, lines and creases.  Skin looks instantly transformed into a perfect smooth canvas.  Skin is shine free, even and baby smooth.  No burden to skin.  The secret?  Cherry extracts, known for their antioxidant properties."

The translucent gel does smoothen the skin with velvety texture, however it blurs rather than erase by filling the gaps of the skin making foundation or bb cream easier to apply with evenness.  In my case, this doesn't make my skin shine free.  Just upon application I can see shininess that progresses as the hours go by that after around four hours, my face looks oily without really being oily (I have dry skin) so I suggest to use this sparingly about around half a pea size is enough for the whole face and neck.  More than the said amount, my face will look oily and feels heavy by the time I'm eating lunch.  I love that it doesn't feel sticky though and I'll believe in the words of Maybelline that it doesn't clog pores.

and here's what the baby skin pore eraser looks like

The next baby is the Maybelline Baby Lips in Smoothing Cherry
SPF20.  Instant 8 hour moisture.  Rejuvenated lips in one week.
"The next generation of lip balm is born, from Maybelline New York.  Adult strength care for baby soft lips.  Instant 8 hour moisture-  Shed away rough dryness for supple, smooth, and cushioned lips all day long.  In one week rejuvenated lips- It's proven:  Centella essence increases cell turnover to literally transform your lips, fine lines reduced, elasticity increased, suppleness increased."

I mainly use this now when I'll be under the sun for more than 30 minutes because of it's spf which is the only reason why I'm keeping this lip balm (for now).  Aside from the spf, I semi hate it because it makes my lips sensitive even after the week promise, it's like anytime my lips will bleed.  It does moisturize though when I just freshly apply it and smells like cherry too.

By the way the Baby Skin Pore eraser is said to be a dupe of Benefit's Pore Professional.

Holiday Hauls

It's the time of the year where shoppers have the right to splurge.  Well, a little on my part since I'm on a budget so the items that I got are either affordable or on sale.

So aside from peppermint candy canes (so addicting!) I got the following:

Amazon online
Got an XOXO watch and a toy camera.  Don't have a picture of the camera because it's still in transit.  It's with my brother actually, he's the one who ordered it for me (he said he'll probably just give it as a present hehehe)
classic looking XOXO watch para sa tumatandang ako 

Superheadz, looking really cute

Cheap Finds
Got my first Baby Lips which is on sale.  And 2 Shoes for P399!  Well, they are not that durable especially on a rainy day but I'd rather go to work with these on than slippers.  Will just probably wear the shoes that I store in my ped in the office.
Maybelline Baby Lips

2 pairs of Solemate
Payless
2 shoes from Payless.  The other one which is not in the picture is glittery while the one below is my first ever 4 inches takong (heels).  Need to practice how to walk with the shoes on!
Payless!!!
Re-Stock
Finally, Aloe Vera Gel in the house.  Despite the price hike, I have to admit that my skin love it.  Will probably hoard the next time the boutiques of Nature Republic here will go on sale.  Got these two + a freebie from an online seller
I'm getting ready for the heat of the summer
The Body Shop
I can't resist the boxed set and the body polish limited editions, grrrrr!!!.  Kaasar, expect some posts on the body polish on the first quarter of 2013!
know what's inside? hint: color violet
I want to sparkle and feel the joy and bliss of these body polishes!
Wheew done a lot of cropping in this post.  Till Next time.

Happy Holidays!  Let's welcome the New Year with a bang!
