Beauty basket: Elf wet gloss lash and brow mascara

photo from google

 yahhhhh I know it looks gross!! this is already my second tube and I'm running out already, so yah I I can't show a decent photo


If there's one ELF product that I definitely LOVE and would repurchase over and over again is the ELF wet gloss lash and brow mascara. It's true to its claim,tames the eyebrow and stays on whole day. I don't think Mac girl boy would still find its place on my wish list (ummm..yah as of this moment). I just wish elf would repackage and make it one whole tube without the lash mascara, I just find it blahhhh when used on my lashes. I swear it does nothing to my lashes,when I finished the brow one I end up using the tube for lashes on my brows too.

Pros
Inexpensive
Keeps eyebrow in place
Stays all day
Doesn't flake
Keeps my brow in place without the sticky feeling
Doesn't have any weird scent/smell

Cons
Contains a little product( I consume the brow side for less than a month)

So if you're looking for an inexpensive brow gel, go for this. I highly recommend this to makeup enthusiasts who loves to use eyebrow mascara without spending too much.

FOTD- no makeup look

So I did my own version of the "no makeup look", basically I would wear this on a daily basis. Covering my zits or scars would be the one priority in achieving this kind of look. No heavy foundation needed,all you need is a concealer or a tinted moisturizer if you want to wear one,but in my case here I didn't use any bb cream, foundie or tinted moisturizer..concealer was the only thing I need to cover bumps. Here's the look



The look (this is an  unedited photo) you can actually see my darken pimple scar below my lips

Products used: 
Diorskin Forever skin- on daily basis I only use my fanny Serrano two cake or my MAC studio fix,but this Time I used my Diorskin compact
Mac lipstick in chatterbox 
Elf contouring blush and bronzing powder- one my favorite from ELF
Étude house brow pencil
ELF wet gloss lash and brow clear mascara
Maybelline magnum volume express mascara(waterproof)
NYX full coverage concealer

October/November favorites

Elizabeth Arden green tea spray- I remember liking this when I was in high school,and never had the chance to buy one for my self since
I find it pricey. When I was in duty free last month I saw this on sale and it was buy one take one,I know it's a good deal thats hard for me to pass out,so initially I grab one even though I already bought Victoria's secret colognes during that time.
Nwe the reason this is included on my monthly faves is because I love the light fresh citrusy smell it leaves my skin,lasting power is medium but I don't mind spraying on another layer after couple of hours.

Kabuki brush(unbranded)- bought this at landmark,and I initially fell in love with its super soft hair bristles,doesn't feel scratchy at all and most of all doesn't shed. Great for setting foundation and for applying bronzer. Ah yes this brush reminds me of Bobbie brown kabuki brush..slash half the price.

Étude house easy brow pencil in brown- matches my hair color and it's not too creamy or dry,just perfect for my brows

Wet n wild megalast lipstick in MAUVE OUTTA HERE,CHERRY PICKING and SMOKIN HOT PINK- the only lipstick I've been wearing nonstop for the last two months. Pigmentation is amazing,fairly long lasting and the price?? So cheapo.. Already have 6 colors from its line and I'll be adding more,preferably the nude one.

Suave 24 hour protection- the only reason I got this because of its apple scent. PERIOD!!

Elf wet gloss lash and brow mascara- this Is one of my favorite elf product,with it's super affordable price it does it's job perfectly. I love how it tamed my unruly eyebrows without budging.Stays on the whole day.

Nivea Sun Daily Face Fluid spf 30+ PA++
-Since this is fluid,the consistency is light and non sticky to the skin while leaves a dewy finish without looking oily at all
