Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation 2W2 Rattan (Review, Photos, Swatches) | BEST LONG WEARING FOUNDATION FOR ME
This is my ode to Estee Lauder Wear Foundation in Rattan and why I love it so much. Now before you read any further, I would like to let you know that I’m in my 30’s, have combination skin (oily t-zone, dry cheeks), and live in a tropical humid country like the Philippines. Finding a foundation that lasts despite those conditions and still look good for my skin is like a needle in a haystack. Tried different foundation formulas and price-range. High-end, mid-end, to budget. But nothing beats this baby. I want to kick myself for not purchasing this sooner. But hey, better late than never right?

Clarins Double Serum. It’s basically an institution on anti-aging innovation. Did you know that it’s first formulation was back in 1985?

The thoughts about what I need to write, what I want to write, how I want to write it and everything else goes beyond the physical. The flesh may be weak, but my will to blog is stronger!

What? Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited in Avenue Sunset (Limited Edition) Where to buy? Shu Uemura Counters or Rustan’s Beauty Source How much? 30 USD (around 1,500php) This was given to me as a gift. It’s actually my very first Shu Uemura lipstick. Although I love their eyelash curler (been with me for 6 years na LOL) and a fan of their glow-ons because of how it naturally melts on the skin and looks natural.

What? Chanel No5 EDP Perfume Review Where to buy? Rustan’s Essences / Rustan’s Beauty How much does it cost? 2,595php/50ml Initially, whenever I hear of Chanel No 5 from my lola, I get prejudicial about my lola’s taste in fragrance. I tell her Chanel No 5 is for old people and smells awfully strong. But the truth is, I never even sniffed or whiffed that perfume before. Only in stories. After browsing around Rustan’s Essences in Shangri-la Mall (Shaw) for a new signature scent (My old favorite: Narcisso Rodriguez EDP) I finally got the courage to try Chanel perfumes. I sprayed on my wrist. *sniff sniff* Surprise! It smells like a combinatation…
