Esfolio Philippines Grand Launch (PICTURE HEAVY POST!) #WelcomeEsfolioPh #EsfolioPh #EsfolioPhilippines

Esfolio Philippines finally had a Grand Launching event yesterday, May 30, 2019, at Happy Garden Cafe in Bel Air Makati and I am so glad I went! It is no secret that I've featured Esfolio Philippines a few times in both the PinayBeautyAndStyle YouTube channel and the #PinayBeautyAndStyleBlog. I even have a hashtag for my Instagram features under #YeyAndieLovesEsfolio!

I'm just really happy that the brand took a lot of time and effort before officially launching in the Philippines. Without further ado, here is what happened at the Esfolio Philippines Grand Launch event!

EB Advance Lip & Cheek Stain Review Swatches Price and Wear Test from Ever Bilena! #CrueltyFreeMakeup #ParabenFreeMakeup

EB Advance Lip & Cheek Stain is not a new product for me. I've been using the shades Very Red and Perfect Plum for years and love them. Recently, Ever Bilena came up with new Lip and Cheek Tint and so the new shades of EB Advance Lip & Cheek Stain were born as well. 

You can read about the new releases here: New makeup from Ever Bilena, Careline, and EB Advance.

Esfolio Snow Whitening Cream Review - Get Instant Glow from Within!

Esfolio Snow Whitening Cream intimidated me at first because I thought that it would look too white on my skin. Other creams that claim users can get instant glow from within are usually too thick and too white, making the user look like 'espasol'. I finally started using Esfolio Snow Whitening Cream as my base a few weeks ago and am really happy with the results.

Lazada Women Festival Guesting PinayBeautyAndStyle X The Face Shop + Lazada Sale Promos!

Lazada Sale promos are part of the highlight of my past summers. I never thought that I'd be a part of it someday through their Lazada Women's Festival! So, okay, the thing is, a few brands have asked me to be a part of their FB and Lazada Live over the past 8-10 months but I always decline because I feel that I am too old, too ugly, too fat, and too much of a 'no one'...until The Face Shop asked.

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.

#MegandaKa Summer Essentials! Try Megan Beauty Products for Your Summer Skincare

Remember when I first discovered Megan Beauty earlier this year? I really loved their Megan Peel Off Clay Mask (review here) and so I'm really excited to also share their hottest products for #Summer2019!

#MegandaKa Summer Essentials! Try Megan Beauty Products for Your Summer Skincare

These products are not all new. I know that Megan Peel-Off Masks has been around for a while. I've also tried the Megan Hot Wax Kit recently but forgot to take a video. The new ones or at least the ones that are new for me are the Megan Aloe Vera Gel and the Sunscreen!

Cream Silk Ultimate Color Revive, Sulfate Free Conditioner for Colored Hair REVIEW! #MyUltimateVibrance #UltimatelyVibrantHair

Cream Silk Keratin Conditioner has been on my stash of my regular hair care products. However, I recently colored my hair, going from my natural dark brown to blonde and then going from blonde to red hair. Needless to say, my hair needed extra care!

So, Why Try Cream Silk Ultimate Color Revive?

#MyUltimateVibrance Revealed at Cream Silk Keratin Rescue Ultimate Color Revive Launch #UltimatelyVibrantHair

Cream Silk launched their newest Keratin Rescue Ultimate Color Revive conditioner a week ago at the BGC Arts Center. After a week of use, I'm totally happy to share what went down during the event!

#MyUltimateVibrance Revealed at Cream Silk Keratin Rescue Ultimate Color Revive Launch #UltimatelyVibrantHair

The Story

Creamsilk recognized the need to create a conditioner that really works for colored hair as hair coloring became more popular locally. As you may have also observed, it is quite normal to see Filipinas sporting blond, all shades of brown, and even pastel hair these days. I've had ombre blond hair from January to April 2019 and recently switched up my blonde hair to red! 

I talked about products for maintaining red hair in this post and today, I'm glad to share that I'm adding Creamsilk Keratin Rescue Ultimate Color Revive to my list!

Infracyte Cyto Clean Review - Mild and Gentle Face Cleanser for Mature Sensitive Skin

Infracyte Cyto Clean is something that I've been using on and off for more than a year. It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I try not to use it up too fast and tend to save it for days when my skin is really bad. This is how difficult it is to find an effective and gentle face cleanser for mature sensitive skin!

This review is actually an updated and republished version of the first blog post I did in April last year. I wanted to add some notes and change the photos to really give justice to this mild yet effective cleanser from Infracyte. I also wanted to highlight how much I recommend this for sensitive skin no matter how old or young you are if you're okay with shelling out P1,800 for a cleanser.

Infracyte High Potency L Vita C Antioxidant Serum 10% Review (about 1 year of use!)

I first blogged about the Infracyte High Potency L Vita C Antioxidant Serum 10%  last year and at that time, I've only been using it for about 2 weeks. This blog review is a republished and updated version of that Infracyte Vitamin C Serum review because I feel that skincare need ample time to work for anyone to see real results.

Infracyte High Potency L Vita C Antioxidant Serum 10% Review (about 1 year of use!)

The first time around that I tried Infracyte Vitamin C Serum was when I was really breaking out and had bad skin a year ago. That was also the time that I gained a lot of weight because of stress and so the effects were really visible on my skin. I figured that since Infracyte is distributed by Eiskin in the Philippines and is under the same cosmeceuticals umbrella as Mesoestetic (a brand I trust), that it must be great too! And it is!

Happy Skin Power Pout Lip Lacquer Review in Hear Me Roar

Hear Me Roar is a phrase that always reminds me of the Lannisters in Game of Thrones so when I found this Happy Skin Power Pout Lip Lacquer at the back of my drawer, I just can't help but to try this on despite my reservations with using any gloss or lacquer type of lip product. I'm actually kicking myself over this because I can't believe it took me this long to take this for a spin. If it weren't for Cersei Lannister going mad queen mode with her legendary power pout and the House Lannister words "hear me roar" echoing in recent Game of Thrones episodes, I won't have tried this Lip Lacquer from Happy Skin!

Sorry, I can't help referencing Game of Thrones because the shade name of this Happy Skin Lip Lacquer is exactly the same as House Lannister words 'Hear Me Roar'.

Jeju Aloe Ice Review from The Face Shop - Refreshing Soothing Gel That Really Works! #JejuAloeIce #TFSJejuAloeIce #WhiteSorbetGel #TFSWhiteSorbet

Jeju Aloe Ice is a phrase that I keep hearing about from the staff at the office but I really thought that it was some kind of new raved gel from an unknown brand. Little did I know that Jeju Aloe Ice is the latest trend in KBeauty and quite a few brands have their own concoctions. I can't believe that I've only been aware recently and won't even know that TheFaceShop Philippines also carries their very own TheFaceShop Jeju Aloe Ice Refreshing Soothing Gel until they sent me one! 

Spoiler: I liked this so much that I hoarded a few from my local The Face Shop store. Not gonna show here because they might ban me from the store, hahahah!

One of the first videos I created for the PinayBeautyAndStyle YouTube channel is a beauty subscription box unboxing video for beauty subscription box Boxycharm followed by IPSY. Unfortunately, these beauty subscription boxes are not available in the Philippines. I followed that with Glamourbox and BDJ Box but both Philippine Beauty Subscription Boxes are also long gone as of now. Good thing that TheStyleQuarter.Net came up with their own beauty subscription box! Of course, I grabbed the opportunity to share this new Philippine Beauty Subscription Box with you guys!
