Latest Drugstore Haul: SM Makati Watson's
Have you ever had the urge to shop for one thing and you end up getting a lot of things except for the thing you originally wanted to buy? I did. I wanted to buy a facial scrub for my weekly exfoliation mainly because I'm almost out of it. So after work, I went straight to Watson's and looked for a nice facial scrub to try. Here's some of the stuff I ended up getting instead:

Shawill Eyeshadow in Shade 08: Review
A couple of months ago, I (technically it was my mom, not me) bought a single shadow that I can use for work. I didn't want to bring a lot whenever I go to work so I opted to find a single compact eyeshadow and came across Shawill's stand one day. I was actually with my mom that day and was kidding around. I joked about how she should buy me something from the brand so I can try it out. I was aware that she knew I was just kidding around but she said yes. I immediately swatched a lot of shadows and ended up getting one from the PHP128.00 line (mono shadows with mirror) and got the shade 08.
Pros:
- Nice color (The line even has good colors to choose from.)
- Doesn't easily crease (alhough it still does) even without primer
- Good color pay-off
- Easy to blend
- Locally available
- Cheap (PHP 128.00)
- Good applicator
- Compact (good for travelling)
Cons:
- Packaging (I do appreciate the mirror but I just feel that it's too small to begin with so I don't think I will ever get to use it.)
- Easily breaks (Broke mine on my first usage T_T

the shade is lovely, don't you agree?
it comes with a mirror beneath the shadow itself
the applicator actually works good. the tip is made of sponge which I like.
it broke on my first use! :( you can just imagine how sad I was that day.
the remedy. placed it in a small jar-like container. will just store and use it like pigments.
Pros:
- Nice color (The line even has good colors to choose from.)

- Good color pay-off

Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Cream in Milk Tea: Review
Here's what Etude House has to say about the product: Cleansing cream's creamy texture contains Milk protein to remove dirt and makeup while keeping skin moisturized with the pleasant fragrance of tea.
And here's their directions on how to use it: Apply cream to all areas of the face. Massage thoroughly and wipe clean with cleansing tissues or rinse with warm water to remove excess.
Personally, I apply the cream all over my face and rinse it off with water. After which, I wash my face with my Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam in Lemon Tea.
Pros:
- nice powdery smell
- cheap (PHP 198)
- locally available (bought mine in SM Makati Watsons)
- removes practically all kinds of makeup on your face, even the waterproof ones
- doesn't sting
- no allergic reactions
- skin feels soft after each use
Cons:
- cannot remove tints (or as I've experience, my Tony Moly Lip and Cheek Tint in Cherry Pink)
- tub container doesn't seem too hygienic, you'd have to buy a spatula
Now here's a video I previously filmed and I've included a short demo of me using this product. Enjoy! :)

Baviphat Apple AC Therapy Sleeping Pack: Review
So today's review is about Baviphat Apple AC Therapy Sleeping Pack. Just from the name itself, you'd probably guess how this product is used. Yes, it is a face mask and yes, you sleep on it. Basically, you just have to clean your face, apply the mask and leave it on as you sleep overnight prior to rinsing it off. I wasn't able to use the product for long. I just had the chance to try it out with the 2 sample sachets I bought over at e-bay (BIGTOKYO). So here are my thoughts after finishing the samples.
- scent (apple scent is love)
- consistency (easy to spread, not thick)
- prevents future breakouts
- leaves skin feeling soft
- easy to rinse off
- has samples so you can first try it out prior to buying its full sized version
Cons:
- not available locally
Would I repurchase? Probably if it's available locally. As of now, I don't have plans of purchasing its full size (and no plans to repurchase samples).
