Hooded lids is a common problem among Asians. It just makes applying makeup a challenge! I for one, have always dreamed of having deep set eye lids for a more dramatic makeup look for tutorials, nevertheless, I am contented with what I have. It actually brings more adrenaline since applying makeup becomes a challenge!
This Smokey Eye Makeup Look is perfect for night parties and evening events as it accentuates the eyes giving a bold look. This is definitely not only for girls with hooded lids, this can also be applied to those with deep set eye lids observing application of the eyeshadow to the outer v and crease.

This is a Makeup Look that would suit most outfits since I used mainly neutral eyeshadows for this tutorial. The peachy colored lips and cheeks sure is perfect for the season.

Last
month, I was able to experience one of the most unforgettable events in my
life... My very first Meet and Greet! Jaja
of myglamchildjaja messaged me last
February that she is coming to Davao for the month of March for a family vacation;
therefore, it was a very nice opportunity for us to meet personally, conducting
a “Meet and Greet” as most bloggers call it. I was quite nervous for some reason
since it was my first time. Nevertheless,
I said yes!
Having planned this
meetup with Jaja, I had to contact my
fellow youtubers from Davao for them to come and join us, since I believe in
the saying “The more the merrier!” Hence,
I beeped Anne of MegaAnneLim and she immediately said yes! I also tried to
contact Emafe of PinkieRiceGurl and she really wanted to come but here
residence if faraway from our meet up place.
We
all met up at SM Lanang Premier, and we decided to dine and chill at Blugre
Cafe where all the chitchat and building friendship started.

We
spent the whole night there talking about what have you about makeup, beauty
and life. We were all laughing and having so much fun as we all are so kalog or perky in our own little ways.

We actually did a What’s in My Bag Tag video
filmed on Jaja’s camera that is up on
her vlog on her channel!
Here’s

Here's Anne of MegaAnneLim's video sharing her thoughts on our Meet & Greet!:

It
was actually my first time to personally meet fellow youtubers, and I can say that it was definitely a fun and wonderful
experience. Meeting people with the same interests is really fun. You get to
talk about a lot of things, definitely all about makeup! Gaining friends and
sharing your life with one another was an amazing experience. With only minutes
after official meet up, we already feel like we have known each other since
like forever! As Anne would say, it
felt as though we are her kababatas or
childhood friends, which I definitely agree on!
Overall, it was
a wonderful, fun and amazing experience! And I am definitely looking forward to
meeting more YouTube beauty vloggers/bloggers in the near future!

Perfect Highlight shade for my skin tone
Naturally highlights my cheekbones
Gives a Radiant Glow to the face
Impressive Pigmentation: A Little goes a Long Way

Cons:
Diifficult to pick out product from small sized packaging
Verdict:
Personally, the same opinion I mentioned with their Mineral Blush and Foundation, I would definitely repurchase this product in a larger sized packaging for easier application. I love how it illuminizes my face without making it seem fake, it gives me a natural radiant glow that makes the face look younger. The product itself looks so pretty! The shimmer looks to shining, shimmering and splendid! From the packaging (photo posted above), it really shows how the product really does reflect to light, thus giving a great looking highlight on the face. Pigmentation is great as a little product goes a long way. Overall, this product is great for everyday as it achieves a "no makeup" makeup look.

"French Kiss, a charming, natural looking matte baby pink, ideal for fair to medium complexions"
Pros:
Perfect Natural Flush for my Skin Tone
Fine & Silky
Impressive Pigmentation: A Little goes a Long Way
Contains Zinc Oxide that Helps dry up Pimples
Organic, Healthy & Natural
No Harmful Chemicals
Philippine Made
Cons:
Diifficult to pick out product from small sized packaging
Verdict:
Personally, I would definitely repurchase this product in a larger sized packaging for easier application. I am very much interested in trying out a lot of their shades since they offer a wide array of shades for different skin tones. This blush is mineral, therefore pigmentation is great as a little goes a long way when applying the product. What I love most is how it gives me the perfect natural flush to my cheeks that makes it seem that I did not apply any mineral blush on. It gives me a nice touch of pink to my cheeks which I really like. Overall, this blush really impressed me, not only because it is healthy, natural and organic, but it also gives good color payoff and a natural look to my face.
