YAAS! My goodies just came. Been waiting for this since yesterday... Yes, it's that fast. Well, since.. I'm very much overwhelmed by my whole shopping experience, me patiently waiting for the "Kuya delivery guy" to hand over the parcel and up until I opened each one of them, to applying the new products on my face. Might as well, share it with all of you. Do note that this is how I love gorgeous ladies like you. Ofcourse, I want my sweethearts to also experience what I've experience (in good and in bad times, right?). Now, that I have your attention and I know that you're actually curious on the things that I've mentioned . Enough babbling, let's get started.
As you can see, nowadays, Internet can be a great source for shoppers looking to expand their choices of products to buy and an invaluable way for saving money. Good thing, I was able to stumble upon this striking online shop that caters to every products that one beauty geek needs. Beauty MNL is a one stop shop that offers a wide range of beauty staples and have partnered with makeup mavens, skincare savants, hair authorities, and so many other brilliant beauty magicians. And what I love about them is that they were able to provide products that far exceeded my expectations. Yes! You read that right. Their products are quite exceptional. From top international to local brands. Just name it and they have it. My hope is that this will help you shortened your shopping list , aid you in deciding which products are best for you and my online shopping experience at Beauty MNL that is just right under your budget.
Starting off with my online shopping experience. Well! So far, during my last shopping haul with Beauty MNL, was pretty much exquisite. To be honest, there are too many reasons why I enjoyed shopping at BEAUTY MNL. If I were to list every single one of them. It would just take me for like a whole day. So, let me narrow it down for you:
Convenience. Where else can you do shopping, even at midnight, wearing your jammies? The convenience is the biggest perquisite here. Since it's an online shop. Definitely, there would be no lines to wait in or shop assistants to wait on to help you with your purchases, and so with this you can do your shopping haul in a jiffy (less hassle). You can easily visit their website, find the product you want and buy it without getting out of your house.
Price. Better and legit prices. Because some online shops out there is not fair. They sometimes sell more than the SRP (not cool, bruh). However, in here they sell the legit prices of the products.
Infinite choices. The choices here are amazing (tons and tons of items to choose from). You can even get on the latest international products without spending money on airfare. Plus, the choices are overwhelmingly abundant.
No crowds. Ofcourse, I hate crowds when I go shopping at malls. Especially during festivals/special events and this upcoming holiday season, they can be such a huge headache. And because Beauty MNL caters to a person like me who hates going to crowded places, All of these problems can be and will be avoided, with just one click away at Beauty MNL.
Less expense. I tend to spend a lot more than the required shopping expenses when buying for my beauty needs (things like eating out, gas, time and etc). However, when I learned and heard about that there's an online store that caters to Filipina Beauties like me. I checked it out right away. And wasn't disappointed at all.
Fast and Reliable. I was able to receive the parcel with just one blink of my eye (Haha kidding). No, seriously.. That's why I was able to say that, it's because of the fact that I ordered my items just yesterday. Then was delivered straight at my doorstep today (yes, t'was that fast). They are true to their statement when they mentioned that for Metro MNL deliveries it will just take them 1 day to do it (very reliable, indeed).
Sweet. Expect cute, sweet and personalized order acknowledgement email right after you shop. See for yourself. And you'll know what i'm talking about (hihi). Great job and kudos to their awesome logistics team.
So why don't you give yourself ladies a break as I share my heart out with my choosen items that is just less than 1000 pesos. You will also be enlightened by my mini-review of the products to let you know my obsessions about each one of them.
Face Studio ∣ Maybelline V-Face Contour line
I'm obsessed with them and so you will be, too (TRUST ME!). You need to get your hands on one of these before they sell out.
Can you guess what they’re trying to get you to achieve with this? It’s the enviable (and trending) “V” shape for the face! You can totally make your nose thinner and face with this if you want to, so I thought I’d give it a try! This product is perfect most especially for beginners. The Maybelline V-Face Contour line has two sides. So let me start first with the other end. The lighter one delivers a high-voltage highlight that illuminates skin with stunning radiance! While on the other end, with the much darker shade is to be used for sculpting your face to make it look small. Better yet, the creamy stick formula is a breeze to work with and leaves skin with a dewy-looking (but not greasy) glow, all at an affordable price! Even more impressive, the lightweight, buttery-smooth texture glides over foundation without disturbing it, and also wears well beautifully over bare skin, setting to a silky-soft, powder-like feel. While the formula won't necessarily hold up all day long, it will get you through an evening out and is stunning while it lasts. This means that if you’re a contour-highlight newbie, this is a great product to start with.
Hooray for #EasyContouring!
And just like that, I was able to sculpt and define my face in a subtle way. In this way, it’s not too cray plus I still look like me (just with fiercer cheekbones) when I go out. I also like how the whole contour-highlight game lifted my face.

Detail | MakeBrow Eyebrow Palette
Brows! Brows before Hoes (just kidding- laugh with me on this). Well, ofcourse, your whole makeup look will not be complete without your "Always on Fleek" eyebrows. As what most makeup gurus would say, you may have the gorgeous eye makeup, a perfect contour, the prettiest shade of matte lipstick on. However, always do keep in mind that if you don't shape and fill in your brows perfectly, your look will never be complete.
I got the MakeBrow Eyebrow Palettes in #2. Because I know this suits my skin color the most. This eyebrow palette creates a perfectly groomed brows. It features highly pigmented brow powders that build up to different intensities; brow definition ranges from natural to strong; pigments can also double as matte neutral eyeshadows.
MakeBrow Eyebrow Palette in #2 is the dark version between the two palettes. How did I make my perfect brow? Ok! Chill, ladies (haha). I know you've been all waiting for this. So, without further ado. Here's my detailed instructions on how I applied the product to create my perfect brows.
I use the first pan starting from the left to fill in my inner eyebrows and then the darker pan on the rest (Easy breezy, right?). Simple as that. But wait, there's more. Another OMG! And thank you to Details for making this palette totally complete... It also comes with a highlighter to clean excess powders/pigments around those brows.
Perfect product plus perfect application equals perfect brows. Isn't that sweet? Or what?

Skin Genie ∣ Lip and Cheek Stain Alive
These past few months lip and cheek tints are as dope as your matte ones. Therefore, I wanted to try them once and for all again, just to see if still works for me.
You don't want to look like a total zombie do you? So, this is where my Lip and Cheek Stain Alive comes in. What does it do? Basically, it can give you a natural-looking blush and lips to die for. The rosy cheeks and painted lips combo is a classic beauty trend that — as T-Swfit puts it — “never goes out of style.” So what more could a girl want than a product that combines a lipstick and a blush? While there is a vast array of lipsticks and blushes out there, lip and cheek stains save you the trouble of spending more time scouring the website of Beauty MNL (commence impulse buying in three…two…one…).
A little bit of my childhood memoirs for you, ladies! I just wanted to share with all of you during my high school days. And so, with that. Did you know that way back then, makeups are strictly forbidden in our campus? It is, in fact written down in our student handbook that students who'll be caught using/ bringing or has any makeup on will have an offense (Scary, right?). I know, you're thinking.. How did I survive in that kind of situation? But, guess what. All thanks to the creator of "The Lip and Cheek Stains". I never got caught using it (Allelujah!!).
Skin Genie's Lip and Cheek Stain Alive comes with 9 different shades available with Bentonite Clay for lip detox and Zinc Oxide for lip protection. It's worth every penny for the natural-looking color that easily blends onto your skin. It's extremely easy to use and the best part is, it doesn't make your skin oily - and you don't feel like you're wearing anything on your face.
I just apply about four dots on my cheek and it blends in very easily with my fingertips to a beautiful sheer pop of blush. It is so natural looking and stays all day. I honestly didn’t expect to love this product so much, but it surprised me and has become one of my favorites. It is so magical and so easy to apply.

Swan ∣ Strawberry Classic Blender
The hot pink strawberry-cone shaped sponge promises flawless application of any base product, including primer, foundation and concealer.
The beauty blender is famous for its egg-shaped design and bright pink color (it comes in other colors as well, but the original is bright pink). However, mine is a strawberry shape one. It's not an art or whatsoever, that shape has its own purpose. The difference between the beauty blender and other sponges is apparent as soon as you first pick it up: It's remarkably lightweight and soft. Most sponges have a certain degree of "give," but the beautyblender is so soft that even a light touch causes it to indent, and you can compress it completely in your hand. This texture is the key to its success when it comes to applying makeup.
The overall look was natural, dewy and provided ample coverage. For the best application, I recommend using a liquid or cream foundation (because you have to dampen the sponge), and first putting the foundation on the back of your hand or another surface. Then dip the beautyblender into the makeup, and apply it to the face, quickly "bouncing" the sponge (this is where the lightweight texture comes in). Since the sponge is so soft and material so smooth, there's little "resistance" when you bounce on your makeup onto your face—the result of which is a more natural-looking coverage (instead of being left with streaks or lines of demarcation).
