For several months now, I have been using the Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals Powder Foundation for my day and evening looks. Clear Smooth is Maybelline’s line of mineral make up designed with Asian complexion and skin in mind. I am using the B02 Natural Beige Ochre shade. I have forgone the Light Ochre shade which I used months ago because my skin reacts to the make up in such a way that the make up looks lighter as hours pass by.

Ever since I saw in on the Tyra Banks Show (please don’t judge me, thanks), I couldn’t wait to buy and try out ELF Cosmetics. ELF stands for Eyes, Lips, Face. It is make up simplified. And it is very affordable. Fortunately, it is now available in most places in the Philippines, but not in my city. But when my cousin abroad offered to buy me make up, I requested for ELF since it’s very affordable. I don’t really wear make up much so I don’t invest a lot of money in it.

I have wanted to try out mineral make up for a long time, so the first thing I requested for was the ELF Mineral Foundation (Light) which costs only P399.75 locally. It comes in a handy 12 oz pot.
