When I was in SM Southmall, I came across their stall in the department store. I must say, the stall was really small. If I didn't know the brand, I wouldn't look at it. The stall was sooooo plain. They better do something about their marketing plan or else, this product will not last long in the Philippines. Products are cheap but no one was looking at them.
Okay.. So enough about my rants. Let's start!

| This is what the packaging looks like. Very simple. This is in 03 Sand Beige. As you can see, a 35ml container only costs P139! BTW, they have light and medium shades and 03 Sand Beige is the darkest. INGREDIENTS: Aqua, Glycerin, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Isododecane, Butylene Glycol, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Dimethiconce, Cyclopentasiloxane, Laureth-4, Laureth-7, Steareth-21, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Silica, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben and Propylparaben. |

| No foundation, yet. I only have moisturizer (matte finish) on my face. |
 |
| I finished applying the foundation at 12:40 PM. I used my MakeUpByToni Flat Top Kabuki Brush and set it with my Maybelline Shine Free All-in-One powder (Sand Beige). I chose to apply powder after the foundation because it felt very oily. The foundation covered some of my dark spots and pimple marks. This product provides medium coverage. You will still need to use a concealer to hide other marks that were not covered by the foundation. |
 |
| At 2:44 PM, my face became very oily. The oilyness is not very visible on the second and third photo but in person, it really felt and looked very oily. On the third photo, I did not retouch... I just used Clean & Clear Oil Control film to remove excess oil. |
4:48 PM, face is very oily (again!) and I don't even look like I still have foundation on. Please excuse the dry lips. :)
PROs:
1. Very cheap. For the price I paid for, the quality is just right. You can't expect much from a product this cheap. (This can count as a CON, as well)
2. Doesn't cake.
3. Gives medium coverage.
4. Even though it made my face oily, my skin felt very soft and smooth.
5. Doesn't smell bad. It smells like any other regular make up.
6. Not messy. No worries of product spills.
CONs:
1. You need a lot of the product to cover the whole face.
2. Gives you an oily face. Make sure that you have powder and oil film in your purse when using this product.
3. It's hard to blend.
Will I buy it, again? Not really sure about that. Will I recommend this? If you are into the dewy make up look, then use this product. If not, don't even think of purchasing this.
