Careline Cosmetics has been my first makeup brand I trusted the most during my late high school days. I can still remember my first lipstick; it's the Careline Magic Lispstick :) Who can relate? I guess this brand is really made for teens who are still on finding what makeup products will look best on their skin. It's also nice how they revamp their logo but still on the same quality and price we love.

Last Wednesday, they finally introduced the newest line of their lipsticks: The Careline Kiss Sticks

It's a matte lipstick that has 12 shades in different moods of color. From simple, edgy, bold to intense - they have it!

And because I attended the Careline Summer Send Off, I had a chance to see the whole collection, met their ambassador Andrea Brillantes, indulge on good food, and had fun with my blogger friends.

We also got to take home a bunch of goodies from Careline that includes 4 Kiss Sticks in the shades: Lucid, Mantra, Native and Pinch.

One unique feauture: It has a built in sharpener on the bottom so it can be pointed and be use as a lip liner.

SWATCHES AND REVIEW

1. LUCID - More of a mauve shade. Definitely my fave because I'm really into nudes.

2. MANTRA - This is in light violet shade. I don't think I can use this for everyday but maybe I can try it to experiment!

3. NATIVE - It's a deep red shade. Perfect for girls night out!

4. PINCH - This also belong in nude shades but compare to Lucid, it's more lighter.

* It smells really good at the moment you opened it - like a sweet candy!

* The packaging is unique! Doesn't even look like it's a lipstick.

* It's easy to apply but needs double application to see the coverage.

* Not that 100% matte 'cause it has a glossy texture and can be remove immediately.

* It retails for only PHP 175 each! Very affordable!

Have you already tried Careline Kiss Sticks? Let me know your thoughts!

In case you haven't, you can get it on all leading department stores, and supermarkets nationwide! And also online in BeautyMNL :)

Taking care of our hair is one thing that we shouldn't ignored. As they say, hair is our crowning glory and I truly believe in that. Having a naturally wavy hair brought a lot of insecurities in me. I can still remember when I was in grade school, I always kept my hair tied. I don't enjoyed trying different hair styles because I want it to be straight just like my classmates. As I entered my high school and up until now, I started embracing it. Everything has changed. I now freely loved doing everything I want on my hair.

I like trying new products specially when it's for my hair. Like hair gel and hair shine (that can keep it sleek and shiny all day). Even on shampoos and conditioners, I don't have specific brand because I literally tried everything because I haven't find the perfect one, for my hair! Name it all and I can say that I've used it already. Well, I get easily attracted on their commercials. Good marketing strategy indeed haha!

And with that, I'm sharing with you how I keep my hair in great condition:

1. Salon visit at least 3-4 times a year (because I always want long hair). As for me, I always make sure to make my hair cut to lessen split ends. We all don't like it right? I think it also helps our hair breathe. And now my hair is a little bit shorter just for a new look, but a lot said that it suits me. Yaaay!

2. Use hat/umbrella when going out. Of course, to protect from the harmful ray of sun! Our hair needs sunscreen protection too! I have dry hair that's why I always make sure to use that, prevention it is!

3. Lessen the use of heat styling hair tools. I even don't know how to use it properly. But when someone can do it for me, I use it rarely. Only on special events/occasions. We all know that it's one cause of dryness and hair breakage.

4. Stick to one hair care brand. Until here I still have hugot hahaha jk. Now that I finally tried Symply G Keratin Shampoo and Conditioner, I can say that I finally found the one! Why? Because...

* It provides the hair with maximum moisture making it silky, soft and shiny. I've been using it for a week and I can say that it made a difference on my hair. I can now go on all my errands without worrying how my hair will look like.

* It has a salon content - Keratin with Argan oil. No need to visit the salon for the treatment! I love how it prevents my hair to become dull and dry. That's really my main problem.

* The fragrance is so good! It lasts all day! Feels like a smell of a after salon treatment hair!

* It is budget friendly! Their 22ml sachets is PHP 6.00 and the 200ml bottles is PHP 83.00, such a great deal! Common hair care brands only offers 10ml sachets for the same price with Symply G :)

* Symply G is easy to find in the market. It is available min Purehold branches, local bag per markets and sari-sari stores nationwide!

As this generation, there are a lot of trends coming in. From fashion, style, make ups and even food and lifestyle. One thing I noticed is the Korean drama fever! (Are you one?) I have to admit that I'm not in binge with that craze. I don't know why. Everything about Korean culture became a hit right now - and for that I'm a fan when it comes to Korean fashion and makeup. I really like how they've influenced me thru their stylish, chic and cute outfits. And because I'm starting learning about the world of beauty glam, I find Korean makeups a must have based on what I've seen on the internet and social media.

Good thing Rucy's Vanity let me in to try Korean makeups. For a short background of this brand, it is a 100% Korean skin care and cosmetics brand for both men and women. Rucy's Vanity offers high quality products with affordable price. As I heard before about this brand, what came into my mind is that it is too pricey, but believe me it's really affordable!

Continue reading below for the price and review of the goodies they've sent to me :)

Rucy's Vanity Gleamy Whitening BB Cream (30 ml)

Price: Php 200

Shade: Natural, Oak

I've got the natural which is perfect for my morena skin. I used it as my base and what I love about this is it's easy to blend and help hide imperfections.

Rucy's Vanity Liquid Eyeliner (7ml)

Price: Php 160

Color: Black

I'm not yet used when applying eyeliner because I can't draw them straight (oh no hahaha) but I guess it's a matter of proper practice lol. This one is long-lasting and waterproof do no need to worry!

Rucy's Vanity Gleamy Lavish Waterproof Mascara (7ml)

Price: Php 180

Color: Black

This is my favorite!!! I love how it's easy to apply and gives my lashes a volumized and longer look plus it's smudge proof. Super thumbs up! You better try this out and for sure you won't regret. It's such a steal for just Php180! :)

Rucy's Vanity Auto Eyebrow Pencil (0.33mm)

Price: Php 80

Colors: Black, Brown, Gray

I got mine in Brown which is the color I usually used for my brows. The special for this one is the price! Huhu I'm gonna cry because after so many times I always bought a Php 200-300 eyebrow pencil. This is like the usual but it is retractable that creates a precise line to achieve those kilay goals because kilay is life! Hahaha

Rucy's Vanity Lip and Cheek Red (8ml)

Price: Php 80

To complete the entire Korean look, lips and cheek should don't lie! And this two in one product is a must have! It looks cute in this size and perfect for travelling. It gives a girly and natural look in its red/pink color. It contains green tea and collagen that moisturizes and smoothens the lips.

And there you have it, can I be a K-beauty addict now? I guess yes! Big thanks to Rucy's Vanity Philippines for sending over letting me try the cosmetics. You never know how happy I am whenever I have a brand collaboration, it's an honor that you have your trust to me. Thank you so much and til the next one! ❤
