Pure Beauty Essential Eye Cream









Product Info:

Bon Voyage Essential Eye Cream is specially formulated to help reduce dark circles and smooth fine lines. It contains Sepilift lipo-amino acid, which helps stimulate the self production of collagen and restore the natural firmness to your skin. The resealable sachet pack makes it convenient for travelling.

For Daily Use: In the morning and evening, apply a small amount around the eyes using fingertips. For best results use continuously for a minimum of 2 weeks.

For Intensive Treatment: Apply a thick layer of cream over upper and lower eyelids and leave on for 10 minutes then wipe off. Complete the treatment with a massage starting from the inside, going towards the outer part of the eye contour.

My Personal Take:

Got this product from Watson's for Php 79.00 ($2). My main concern are the puffy eyebags. Though it's not that dark, I find it somewhat wrinkled.The instructions suggests continuous use for 2 weeks, but forgetful me or just being plain lazy, haven't really religiously followed the regimen.Good enough though I can actually say that the product works. There was a time that got to use it for 5 consecutive days I have noticed slight improvement with my wrinkled under eye area. What I like most about the product is its refreshing effect upon application. Not a substitute for cucumber slices or cold eye packs, which I love btw, but I am definitely lobing the coolness the cream gives. Overall I like the product, I still use it whenever I have the time and the 10 mL cream goes a long way.



Stay Happy and Pretty,

Review: Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer


Finally got this baby after quite some time. Etude House SM Cebu is always out of stock, lucky enough there's one last piece left when I stopped by.


So I am still quiet a newbie when it comes to make-up. One thing too, if its not that necessary I usually let the temptation of wanting to buy a product die down. Unless it won't make me sleep for a few days. (haha!) So I have only started learning more about make-up about almost 2 years ago. My nature of work doesn't require me to but it feels good to know about this things and being able to get it done the right way. And when I was in high school,  I can remember dolling up with my mom's make-up before I take bath during weekends, especially when she's not around.



So back to the Proof 10 Eye Primer. It is a light beige cream that goes with a sponge tip applicator. Just a little swipe on the lids and a finger can do the rest of the spreading. It has a very light smell, not a pleasant scent but it can actually go unnoticed. I even thought its unscented until I checked.  I finally got the before and after photos ready, yay to my new camera and here they go...

I swear on how awfully oily my eyelids can get. Usually after two hours without primer, my eye shadows are almost wiped out, looking all greasy and messed up. Thanks also to my beautiful hooded eyelids. But with Proof 10 Eye Primer, the eye shadows can stay on the whole day. Though it looked a little creased and oily in the photo, its just nothing like that without the primer. I have heard of the UDPP but it's way too expensive. At Etude House, it is only Php 298 ($7). This is the first Eye Primer I've tried and I am just too happy how good it works for me. It really saved me from the frustration on how to let my eye shadows stay longer.

Shimmery with flash

Without flash

My Personal Take:

Packaging: Perfect to serve its use, pretty neat and a little squeeze is all I need to get the right amount for highlighting.

Scent: Unscented

Features: Its a good highlighter for the cheek,  a pretty eyeshadow base, and adds some nice sheer on a lipstick or alone after a lipbalm. It really does give some subtle glow as applied on the cheeks. All you need is a finger for application and it can easily blend well without the greasy feel. No breakouts and allergies for me.

Availability: Aside from Enchanted 30, i think its available in Spellbound 30 as well. Haven't seen this locally but its sells for  $3.99 at amazon.

Value for Money: ♥♥♥♥

Overall Rating: ♥♥♥♥

For me, highlighting isn't necessary for an on the go look but the radiant glow this product gives is just beautiful. It worked great on me and theres nothing bad about it. Its basically the first 3 in 1 product I got that actually works for the 3 uses.


Happy Weekend!
