Careline Stain With Me Review and Swatches Mask Proof Lip Tint That's Also Paraben Free and Cruelty Free

Careline lip tints has been a staple in so many kikay kits, including my own so when I found out that they have a nenw release that's not only the same good 'ol paraben-free and cruelty-free concoction but is also MASK PROOF, I went ahead and gave it a go. For the past week, I tried each of the 6 shades so I can give some commentary in case one of them is a flop but thankfully, they are all the same quality. Without further ado, here are my thoughts on the Careline Stain With Me LipTint.

Another bonus is you get the same pricing as in-person stores yay!

REVIEW Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer - Is It A Good Concealer for Acne Prone and Sensitive Skin? #maybellineph #drugstoremakeup #TipidBeauty

Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer is something that I've always had in my makeup kit. I've been using this for years and this has remained my favorite for so long that I hoarded several tubes a few years back. Now that I am on my last one, it is time for a review!

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer Review - Is It A Good Concealer for Acne Prone and Sensitive Skin

I have acne-prone and sensitive skin so I need a concealer that is light enough to use under the eye, has enough coverage to cover my pimple marks, and can withstand the scorching heat of the Philippine climate without sliding off my combination-oily skin. If you have the same skin issues, you will probably like the Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer!

REVIEW Careline Glow Getter Palette Price and Swatches

Careline Glow Getter has been in my stash for more than a year now but I just didn't have a chance to write a stand-alone review for it in the past. It is one of the most affordable multi-purpose face palettes in the Philippine Drugstore Makeup aisle that is readily available and affordable. It is cruelty-free and vegan too! I just don't reach out for it as often because the shades are more suitable for someone with a morena skin tone and I have fair skin but considering everything, it's a good buy!

Careline Glow Getter Review, Price, and Swatches

I say that this is a good buy because I can't blame a makeup product that I bought to review for not being perfectly made for my skin tone. With this said, the Careline Glow Getter palette only has one shade combination available. It just so happens that I have other palettes that are better for me but I will still review this for those who might be interested.

REVIEW Careline Multi Sticks New Colors Swatches + UPDATE

My swatches for the Careline Multi Sticks was one of my most popular blogs in the past few months so when Careline went on sale, I made it my mission to purchase more so I can post an update. I will add links to my previous posts covering Careline Multi Sticks.

Careline Multi Sticks New Colors Swatches Review UPDATE

Careline Multi Sticks New Colors Swatches Review UPDATE

I am not sure how many Careline Multi Sticks are new right now because honestly it isn't like they send or post press releases when they have new products for existing lines but from what I can infer, it seems that they added a new highlighting stick and several blush sticks. That would make a total of 10 from the first 6 launched in 2018. I kinda wish that they added a bronzing stick plus a lighter matte highlighter because the one they have (brighten) is too dark on me plus the contouring stick is too cool-toned for bronzing.

I think the new releases are Berry, Coral, Flush, and Beam....so 3 blushers and 1 highlighter.

REVIEW Ever Bilena Match Color Stix Swatches - Creamy Stick Highlighter for Gals on the Go!

Ever Bilena Match Color Stix is one of the new-ish products that was released by this Cruelty-Free Makeup brand. I say new-ish because it's definitely older than 6 months but was just not hyped or had as much recognition as the Careline Multi Sticks which are very popular. Perhaps because instead of a full-range of cream face products, the Match Color Stix only has 3 shimmer shades. Don't let that stop you from trying these out btw, they performed better than expected!

What is the Match Color Stix by Ever Bilena?


The Match Color Stix by Ever Bilena is a collection of 3 cream stick highlighters that I assume were chosen to complement various skin tones and uses. The stick form makes it easy to apply even on the go and doesn't require the use of fingers or applicators making it more hygienic and easy to control. It is also quite hardy and survived being left out in a hot car during summer so that's a plus!

Is it worth it to buy this if you already have the Careline Multi Sticks? Find out below!

REVIEW Spotlight Cosmetics Scene Stealer Gel Eyeshadow Swatches, Price, and Where to Buy

Gel eyeshadow products are not new in the Philippine market but the ones that were available before were from international makeup brands. Don't quote me on this but I think Spotlight Cosmetics is the first Filipino Makeup Brand that released a gel eyeshadow that truly works for Philippine weather. I've been using this since March 2021 and haven't experienced the problems I've had with similar products in the past. If you have oily eyelids that tend to give you raccoon eyes, then keep on reading!

REVIEW WetNWild ColorIcon Not a Basic Peach Palette Swatches

Not a Basic Peach Palette from Wet N Wild's Color Icon collection is what brought me out of my makeup rut. Since the quarantine started, I find myself not wearing makeup as much as I would like to. I've been mostly working from home even prior to Covid-19 pandemic and I guess I just liked it having to live up to expectations of a full face of makeup everyday. With this said, this was only great for the first few months but later on, I find that my productivity suffered. There is something to putting yourself together in the morning that kick-starts your brain for real but the problem was I got so used to not wearing makeup that most eyeshadow palettes overwhelmed me. I lived in BB cream, mascara, and tint for months until I rediscovered the WetNWild ColorIcon Not a Basic Peach Palette when I was downsizing my things. I began swatching and before I knew it, was wearing eyeshadow again!

REVIEW EB Collection Blush Palette from Ever Bilena Price + Swatches

EB Collection Blush Palette is something that I wanted to review when it first came out, but the palette was so difficult to find that I simply forgot about it until I saw it again months later while I was browsing Lazada. So just a quick note that I haven't seen this in any physical stores but is available online. Let's move on to the review!

Revlon ColorStay Endless Glow Highlighter Swatches and Review - Liquid Highlighter for the Holidays!

I've always been a fan of highlighters. I have an unhealthy number of highlighter reviews on this blog for someone who is only a casual makeup wearer. I also happen to have more than 100 different highlighters in different formulas and forms. Yeah, it's embarrassing, haha! Anyway, I'm not bragging. I'm just establishing the fact that I've always been a highlighter person even though I don't wear them that much. There is just something about things that are shining, shimmering, and splendid that leaves dazzled and wanting more! My favorite highlighters are usually in powder form, though, because I find cream and liquid highlighters a bit cumbersome to use...until I met Revlon ColorStay Endless Glow Highlighter!

EB Advance Spotlight Highlighter Review Plus ALL the Ever Bilena Highlighter Swatches!

EB Advance Spotlight Highlighter Review is here! It's been a loooong time since I last dropped a makeup review because I've been so busy with life and all. Ever Bilena woke me up with a new highlighter shade. I can't believe it has been almost 2 years since they've released EB Advance Glow Out Highlighter shades Strobe and Candlelight. A few weeks ago, they've released their newest shade called Spotlight.

Ara Colours Matte Lipstick Swatches Review Price - Collaboration Between Ara Mina and Ever Bilena!

Ara Colours is a new line of local cosmetics under Ever Bilena. This new collaboration between entrepreneur-actress Ara Mina and cosmetics giant Ever Bilena has been in the works since last year and is finally launching by end of July 2019. I heard about this new paraben-free and cruelty-free collaboration a year ago but kept mum because I didn't want to jinx anything. So happy that some of the products are already available via Shopee and Lazada under Ara Colours official store!

Best Maybelline Foundation for Philippine Weather for Oily Acne Prone Skin

Those who've been around since I began beauty vlogging at YouTube knows that I started with US drugstore makeup and highend -ish or midrange makeup. A lot of my reviews back then are Urban Decay, Maybelline, KatVonD, Coastal Scents, Tarte, and BH Cosmetics. Then I got introduced to ELF and local Philippine drugstore makeup and so that's how I really started beauty blogging for PinayBeautyAndStyle. Being a Maybelline girl (naks!) I still get questions about what is my favorite Maybelline foundation every once in a while. Sometimes I get asked what is the best Maybelline foundation for Philippine weather, especially for those with oily and acne prone skin like mine. One of the recent questions was why I stopped blogging about Maybelline followed by a request to rank Maybelline foundations so here goes!

Ever Bilena Fig Trio Swatches and Review from Face Trio Collection - Better than the EB Advance Blush Duo?

Ever Bilena and EB Advance has a ton of new products recently. They've released Careline Play to Slay palette yesterday at Lazada and also launched a new all mattes eyeshadow palette. I think those will take a while to hit stores so before I get to play with them, I figured I should first publish a written review of the Ever Bilena Fig Trio from the Face Trio line of EB Advance.

Ever Bilena All Day Liquid Foundation Review, Swatches, Wear Test, Price

Ever Bilena All Day Liquid Foundation Review was the most requested review I got for 2018 but unfortunately it was so difficult to find the product in stores hence I am only reviewing now (I searched multiple stores for weeks!). I hate to disappoint but this product is still not available in a lot of stores and is often sold out because this is hyped as a full coverage foundation. I bought mine at the hidden Watsons in SM North Edsa and the sales associate there told me that the tube I am holding is the last tube of porcelain (my shade). You may have better luck buying online if you can guess your shade. Hopefully Ever Bilena will be better at product stocking and distribution so just order yours online. So, is this really full coverage and does this really stay all day?

 Ever Bilena All Day Liquid Foundation Review, Swatches, Wear Test, Price


can't believe this is only P195

Right off the bat I'm gonna lay it out there that the Ever Bilena All Day Liquid Foundation is not full coverage at one swipe. However, the formula is buildable and layers beautifully so you can achieve full coverage if you know how to work the product. Let's get on with the review!

2019 New Makeup from Ever Bilena, EB Advance, Careline, and Kris Life Kit! #parabenfree and #crueltyfree

Ever Bilena held the #EBHouseParty on December 19, 2018 at Ascott Makati. I was invited as one of the bloggers, vloggers, and makeup artists. I thought it was just a Christmas Party event but it turned out that it was also a sneak peek of some of the new makeup from Ever Bilena, EB Advance, Careline, and Kris Life Kit that will be released in 2019! What made me even happier is the fact that these are all #parabenfree and #crueltyfree, yay!

EB Advance Lip Define Matte Matic Lipstick Review Swatches Price | Nude Lipstick for Filipinas

I have a ton of reviews featuring EB Advance products but I can't help but also create a dedicated post for the EB Advancce Lip Define Matte Matic lipstick as well. I loved the EB Advance Matic Lipstick released in 2016 and after 2 years, they created and released a much better version!

EB Advance Lip Define Matte Matic Lipstick Review and Swatches



The EB Advance Lip Define Matte Matic Lipstick are 6 nude shades of demi-matte crayon-type lipsticks that promises to have a perfect shade of nude lipstick for every Filipina.

Each one retails for about P200 for 2.5 grams of product and can be bought wherever Ever Bilena and EB Advance products are sold.

Ever Bilena Chocolate Palette Review, Swatches, and Price - It is SOOO Sulit!

Ever Bilena eyeshadows are a favorite of mine from the local drugstore. I mean, I think I've reviewed all the eyeshadows they're released so far hahaha! See my list of reviews for Philippine drugstore palettes here. Anyway, what drew me to the new Ever Bilena Chocolate palette is the packaging. It looks like it is going to be a Kylie Eyeshadow dupe!

It wasn't, by the way... but I'm glad that it isn't.

Cathy Doll Skinny EyeBrow Pencil Review - A NYX Micro Brow Pencil Dupe!

I have a thing for brow pencils and so when I saw the Cathy Doll Skinny Brow Pencil that looks just like my favorite pencil from NYX, I was drawn to it, albeit with a hint of skepticism.

My skepticism is partly because I've been loving my NYX Micro Brow Pencil for almost 3 years (so I think its irreplaceable, haha!) and partly because the Cathy Doll Skinny Eyebrow Pencil is so cheap! It is only P259 to P269 pesos or just around $5, half the price of my favorite!

The Cathy Doll Skinny Brow Pencil is true to its name. For comparison in the photo below, I've laid it beside a gel pen so you guys can see how thin the retractable pencil is.
