Maybelline Fit Me Loose Finishing Powder review

A few days ago Maybelline launched their Fit Me Loose Finishing Powder here in the Philippines with three shades. Fair, Medium, Deep. I bought mine a year ago when I saw my favorite beauty bloggers talking and raving about it in the U.S.

Originally, it has 8 shades. Fair (05), Fair Light (10), Light (15), Light Medium (20), Medium (25), Medium Deep (30), Deep (35) and Dark (40). I bought the shade Fair Light (10).

About Maybelline Loose Finishing Powder:

-Mineral-based formula.
-Helps control shine & smooth skin's texture.
-Lightweight translucent coverage.
-Fresh, natural look.
-Can be used alone or over foundation.

To use:

Apply with a brush. Swirl brush into powder, tap off excess and lightly dust over face.


My Review and Experience

I love that it is finely milled. It is easy to apply. And blends well on skin. I used it alone when I don't want to use my foundation. I sometimes applied it with damp sponge or with a brush when I'm in a hurry. It also brightens the under eye area. I even used for setting my face. I used it for baking the under eye area and the chin. And it is perfect. It's not cakey. It's so matte. And long-lasting. It doesn't have a scent. It is actually a dupe of Laura Mercier Translucent Powder.

Price:

Php 499.00

Pros:

-It is lightweight
-It has smooth skin texture.
-It can be used for baking the under eye area.
-Long-lasting.
-Blends well.

Cons:

-Packaging
-Price


Final Thoughts

I definitely recommend it. It is very comparable to high-end loose powders.

L'oreal Telescopic Carbon Black Mascara

I was never a fan of mascara because I have this thinking that if I put mascara on my lashes, it will only smudge as soon as I open my eyes. Whenever someone gifted me a mascara, I automatically give it to my sister or my mom. I hated mascara because of my monolid/hooded eyes. 

So another friend gifted me a makeup with mascara.. It was L'oreal Telescopic Carbon Black. At that moment, I knew it was a sign that I should give mascara a try. Or mascara is begging me to try him. 😅 I opened the tube and found out that the wand is different than the other lash brushes that I know.

    Comb type wand

I gave it a try....

As soon as I put it on my lashes, it didn't smudged because it dries out quickly. It lengthens my lashes. Sometimes I forgot that I have it because I have a habit of wiping my eyes. And I am always thankful that it didn't even flake. It is not waterproof. And is fragrance free. It has 0.27 FL.OZ/ 8.0 ml.

I love it. Especially the wand because it really lengthens my lashes and dries out quickly. I will definitely going to buy it. And it is now my favorite mascara.  

Makeup Revolution Face Squad Ignite Highlighter

Makeup Revolution is a UK drugstore makeup brand. It is known for having many dupes of a high-end makeup brands in an affordable price.

I bought this Revolution Face Squad "Ignite". It cost $15.00 at Ulta and contains 4 highlighting powders.

The shades: Golden Peach, Champagne Gold, Warm Amber and Golden Bronze.

   
What I love about Makeup Revolution, the brand is cruelty-free, it doesn't test their products and ingredients on animals and is vegan at an affordable prices.

This face squad reminds me of Glow Kits. It is very pigmented. The packaging is a rose gold foiled.

-affordable
-pigmented
-cute packaging
-thick
-net wt. 0.49 oz/ 14g
-cruelty free
-vegan

Cons:
-difficult to buy
-no label of shades on packaging
