The Balm: Meet Matt(e) Review

Hey Guys just wanna share a review on The The Balm: Meet Matt(e) palette. I must say that the packaging is so freaking cute. How can you resist a Matt like that?...so gorgeous =p

The front detail is a picture perfect guy..look at his smile =)

On their website you can see a small description about this palette.

" Meet Matt(e), a gorgeous shadow palette that will meet all your matte needs! These flattering color ( named after our favorite matt's) can be combined to a multitude of mega-fabulous, wearable looks. We've combined 9 swinging singles to offer the best in matte color, versatility and convenience. With so many matt's ,you can be loyal to one and play around with a few at a time.

Meet Matt(e) is the perfect portable size.

You can take him anywhere! "

Here are some swatches,sorry for the poor quality of the picture =(

they may look shimmery on the photo because of the flash but believe me they are so matte =)

 

without flash

Let's talk about pigmentation. I must say that this matt(e) shadows are all highly pigmented except of course those that are in lighter shades they bound to be sheer, like matt smith (taupe shade shadow) and matt chung (light pink shade shadow).

With these shadows you don't need to swirl a lot of product on your brush because of the good pigmentation and formula. But be aware that these shadows are so soft that it leaves some excess behind. When this happens just slightly tap off the excess or blowing off the excess powder so that it will not leave a stain on the package.

So far, i must say this will be on the top of my list for matte shadow palette. With this palette you can create a day to night look easily. Everything you need is in here, it has darker shades for that sexy smokey eye look. And this palette is very handy, true to their word, it has the perfect portable size indeed. You can definitely take all your matt's anywhere.

Would i recommend it? Oh YES!! especially to those who likes neutral shades and matte shadows. This might be the perfect palette for you.

My no makeup makeup look using The Balm: Meet Matt(e) =) love it!

Let me know if you want me to make a tutorial on this look =)

Hope this review helps!

Skin Care Hunting : Beauche International

I have been suffering from rashes and dark spots ever since I got pregnant 4years ago. I have tried a lot of skin regiments just to get rid of these marks on my cheeks but they just don't disappear. Last year we visited my husband's Auntie in Manila for a week vacation last, i KNOW =p pfft! It's been a year since his cousin a UAE's FA and her mom recommended Beauche International to me. They said that they have been using it for years and it is very effective. To cut the story short, I didn't bought a set right away just because I still have doubts at the back of my mind... can you blame me? it's a local brand that I never heard before and the packaging is just so wrong. After a year I saw a Beauche store here in Olongapo and decided to search the net for some more reviews about the product. Then after 2 weeks of research, finally I had the courage to try their products. I bought their famous SET that can be used up to a month for 750 pesos only.

Below are some snapshots i took before and after a week of using beauche internationa skin care set.

BEFORE

AFTER A WEEK OF USING BEAUCHE 

 CLOSER LOOK =)

On my 1st week I experienced all the initial reactions that was said on their website like redness of face, stinging sensation, tightening of skin. Their set comes with a Soap,toner, clarifying Solution, exfoliating cream, rejuvenating cream and their age eraser cream. I think on my 3rd day of using this products, I started peeling drastically as in all over my face and neck and whenever I use it, I feel like my skin is burning. On my 2nd week warts came out of my neck and it is killing me..seriously! so I decided not to use it on my neck just because I can't stand the itchiness.

I'm on my 3rd week now, I still have some red spots on my face but they didn't said that it will be gone over night. Overall I must admit Beauche I'm impressed =) 

Below are some of the FACTS about Beauche Int'l products.

Our product is very good for skin irregularities like:

1. Pimples
2. Acne
3. Pigmentation
4. Discoloration
5. Oily face
6. Black and White heads
7. Old skin/ Open pores
8. Warts

 

 

 

 

 

Initial Reactions during the first week of application:

• Redness of face
• Stinging sensation
• Appearance of new pimples
• Tightening of skin

Do not prick your pimples, white heads, & black heads, for it will come out & eventually heal.
Stability: The change of color of the product doesn’t affect its efficacy. It had undergone through aging process, and still safe to use.
