Product Review: Celeteque DermoScience Hydration Make-up Remover Cleansing Facial Wipes

I was in the grocery a few days back and I came across the Celeteque stand. My eyes were glued to the stand because there were so many new Celeteque products. I came to love Celeteque because of Sample Room. Anyways, this product caught my attention.

I am a make-up junkie and of course, for us to have good skin, we need to take care of it by cleaning it properly. To make the introduction short, I bought this make-up wipe remover from the grocery.

This is the Celeteque Dermo Science Hydration Make-Up Remover Cleansing Facial Wipe [the product caught me on the word HYDRATION...yeah, summer in the Philippines? You know how horrible that is]

At the side part it says:

• Active Skin Hydrators help boost the skin's level of moisture while effectively removing make-up, excess oil, and traces of pollution on the skin's surface
• Clinically proven to improve smoothness of the skin in 2 weeks

I tried it myself and it does the work. It gives your skin that hydrated feeling unlike those of regular make-up wipes that leaves your face dry. If you've tried products containing Hylaraunic Acids (i.e. Hada Labo products or the H2O+ Hydrating products), you would know what I'm talking about.

It makes me feel like a Korean Actress with porcelain skin.

PROs

- removes your makeup

- it has a nice scent

- soft material that doesn't give that scratchy feel

- leaves your face hydrated unlike other products that makes your face dry afterwards

- easily available (you can buy it in the grocery or in Watsons)

CONs

- a bit pricey (you only get 20 wipes)

- nothing else I can think of other than the price

Here's a rundown of the product:

Product: Celeteque Dermo Science Hydration Make-Up Remover Cleansing Facial Wipes
What it does: Removes Make-up and Hydrates your face
Product Amount: 20 Sheets
Price: PHP 160
Will I buy it again: Yes, definitely

Another Cosmetic Hoard

Sorry for the long hiatus. I've been busy with work (teaching can be so stressful and it took me a lot of time to actually blog again). Anyways, since it's Christmas vacation, I'm back! :)

I bought a lot of cosmetics during the Black Friday sale. It's that time of the year when everything is on sale in the U.S. and me residing here in Manila, joined the bandwagon of shopping. It took one month for the items to be shipped here. Here's a sneak peek of what I bought.

Cosmetic Tool Review: E.L.F. Stipple Brush

I'm not a professional artist by any means. I just love make-up that much that I actually spend money on stuff related to cosmetics. LOL! Anyways. I bought this cool tool from E.L.F. called the Stipple Brush.

What is a Stipple Brush? A Stipple Brush is a brush that you use for any wet or dry cosmetics (more on foundations) that needs coverage. I use it for putting on foundations.

This is actually a new product for E.L.F. It's a synthetic brush. What I like about this is that even if it is synthetic, it is soft. It doesn't hurt the face when you do circular movements to put on the foundation. So, that's plus points for this product :)

I personally love this brush. Price is good and quality is good. Another must-have.

Make-up Review: Milani Baked Blush

Okay, so I actually hoarded make-ups from the States. I love make-ups. Milani is one of those drugstore make-up in the States which is not yet available in the Philippine market. I've heard a lot of reviews that this is a good dupe for high end products so I ordered several products from the brand and now I am making a review :)

Anyways, I love this product.This is called the Baked Blush. It is actually a dupe for the MAC SF. This one can act as a contour make-up and at the same time also a blush. I bought the 04 Terra Sole and I use it as a contour.

What I love about this blush is that you don't have to apply much to your face (unlike other powder blush that you have to apply several strokes before you can see the color). It also has this mineral effect that makes your face lighten up. The blush also stays for hours (usually 8 hours or more).

Milani Baked Blush 04 Terra Sole

The blush has an applicator inside and it also comes with a mirror. There's a compartment under the blush for the blush applicator and the mirror. Pretty neat :)

Overall, this is a definite must-have for me. I'll buy other shades in the coming weeks.
