Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals Liquid Foundation

Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals Liquid Foundation

When I was a newbie with makeup, Maybelline was the first brand that I’ve reached onto. I remember being very fond of their Angelfit liquid foundation which was my favorite foundation during those days. It was a perfect match for my skin that I didn’t want to change my liquid foundation. It was that perfect.

When it was time to buy a new bottle, I was told by the sales attendant that the Angelfit liquid foundation was already discontinued. It was so unfortunate that my favorite foundation was discontinued, but I had to move on. The sales attendant informed me about their new line introducing mineral makeup. Back then, mineral makeup was the newest trend because apparently, it was the kind of makeup you can sleep on and some even claim it heals your skin and even carries a couple of benefits for your skin.

I had to decide then and there since I had no enough time to choose so I immediately bought this Clear Smooth Minerals liquid foundation.

What Causes Stretch Marks?

What Causes Stretch Marks?

I find it unfair that some moms don’t have a single stretch mark on their bellies while I got stuck with load of them after I had my baby. I thought that my religious application of cocoa butter on my belly would prevent stretch marks, but I was wrong. So can it be prevented? What exactly causes stretch marks, anyway?

What Causes Stretch Marks?Stretch marks start off being purplish or reddish in color, and later on turn whitish, with deeper indentations in the skin. These can develop not just on the tummy area, but also on the hips, thighs, butt, lower back, breasts, and upper arms.

Etude House Color My Brows #2 Light Brown

Etude House Color My Brows #2 Light Brown

I still keep forgetting to fill in and color my brows when I do my makeup. I tell myself that I prefer natural, not-too-thin or too sharply colored brows anyway so it’s fine, but I know that properly shaped, softly colored-in brows help create a more polished look and frame the face. So I bought a much raved about brow product that I hoped would make things easier for me—Etude House Color My Brows in shade #2, Light Brown.
