Must Buy Make Up For Beginners

When I first learned about make up, I was overwhelmed! So many choices, so little money, so ugly face haha. I know nothing anything about make-up and skin care, tones and the likes. I wish Make Up for Beginners workshop is already a thing back then, wala sana ako masyadong naaksayang pera from buying too much products. Swerte nyo because, this kind of workshop is now a thing and it’s very affordable. And if you are planning to attend Sai Montes Makeup Artistry Basic Personal Makeup Workshop and wondering what are the Must Buy Make Up For Beginners, I am here to help you.

Must Buy Make Up For Beginners

Before I start the list, let me just remind you that before applying make up, your face should be clean and well moisturized.

Make Up Primer. You will need two types of primer, one for the face and one for the eyes (which also works for the eyebrow). Why will you need a primer? It will make everything last longer. Eyebrow will stay on fleek for the whole day.

Foundation. Sai Montes Makeup Artistry Basic Personal Makeup Workshop will discuss how to find the right foundation for you. If you are going to attend the workshop, I suggest skipping buying this. Of you are here just for the Must Buy Make Up For Beginners, knowing your skin type and if your face is acidic will help you buy the best shade of foundation for you. If your face is acidic, go 1-2 lighter shade. Personally, I prefer BB cushion than foundation.

Loose Powder. This is a must, specially if you have oily skin. And you always have to bring one whenever you go. Oiliness (and dry skin) is next to ugliness, always remember that!

Eyebrow Make Up Kit. Everything is all about the eyebrows, it can make or break your look. What eyebrow make up brand to buy? I love Maybelline Fashion Brow Palette. It’s very cheap and it lasts really long (it’s been a year since I bought mine).

Mascara and eyeliner. These two must go together, all the time and specially if you have thin eyelashes or small eyes. If you will attend Sai Montes Makeup Artistry Basic Personal Makeup Workshop, she will teach you how to apply both and also how to apply false eyelashes.

Eyeshadow Palette. This is a must to enhance your eyes. And though I have no product recommendation, what I can tell you is stay away from eyeshadow with shimmer, not a good idea!

Lipstick. I suggest buying 3 shades, Nude, Pink and Red. Also, buy matte and not the one with shine. Why? With matte lipsticks, it’s like having two kinds, you can go matte as is. If you want shine, just apply lip gloss on top of it.

Make Up Remover. Yup, this is also a Must Buy Make Up For Beginners. Always remove your make up using a make up remover to ensure that all make up particles are removed from your face. Never ever skip this part because dirty face can lead to pimples.

Don’t spend too much on make-up ha, spend on your skin care routine. If your skin is really good, you won’t even need a foundation.

Should you buy make up brushes or not? You don’t have to for now. Most products that needs brush to be applied already included a brush for application.

5 Best Christmas Gifts For Teachers 2017

I have high respect and admiration for teachers. Hats off to them for doing that kind of job. 30+ kids in one room?!? I just could not imagine. And my heart is specially close to those who teaches my kids, specially those who’s doing it more than they should. Aside from Teacher’s Day, Christmas is another day to let them know that they are appreciated. Sharing with you 5 Best Christmas Gifts For Teachers.

5 Best Christmas Gifts For Teachers

Baked Goodies or Food. I thought I am the only one who lovesss food as present. If you are going to give food, make sure that it is for sharing. It was mentioned that food given as gifts are usually shared at the faculty room. Sabi ng friend ko “good shot pa sya sa co-teachers nya.”

And I just found the PERFECT food (na for sharing) to give this Holiday: Red Ribbon HoliDozen Gift Boxes. It comes in a festive box designed with a colorful Christmas parol and a gift card!

HoliDozen Assorted Mamon (P252) includes a variety of melt-in-your-mouth mamon with flavors like Butter, Ube, Mocha, Creamy, White Choco Almond, Caramel, Cookies and Cream and Cheesy Mamon.

HoliDozen Cheesy Ensaimada (300) comes with a dozen of the mouth-watering pastry, topped with butter, cheese and a sparkling of sugar.

HoliDozen Assorted Pastries (282) comes with Cheesy Ensaimada, Butter Mamon and Choco Cake Slice.

Chocolates. Another entry for our 5 Best Christmas Gifts For Teachers that surprised me. This is best seller for female teachers according to a teacher friend.

5 Best Christmas Gifts For Teachers

And you wouldn’t get wrong with chocolates! Most brands comes in a cute packaging. Wala ka na problema sa gift wrapping.

Bag or big purses. Ecobag that can hold a lot of stuff is a nice gift. If you feel like being extra, add the name of the teacher for personalized effect. Teachers always have a lot to bring and a sturdy bag will be greatly appreciated.

Desk supplies or pens. Pens will do the trick, 100%. All the teachers I know mentioned pen as one of the gifts they appreciate. If you know the teacher’s favorite color, give a set of pen with different shades of her/his favorite color.

Grocery Pack or Ham for Christmas. Nobody can say no to this, even me! Specially if it is Holiday Ham hahaha. If Ham is a bit expensive for you, try spaghetti pack from the grocery. Each pack is less than 200 Pesos only. You can even add cheese + corned beef para complete na ang pang spaghetti ni teacher sa Christmas.

O ayan, hindi na kayo mahihirapan mag isap what to give to your kids’ teachers this Christmas.

BONUS: other items aside from the 5 Best Christmas Gifts For Teachers list that you can give to teachers:

Kilay kit if teacher is kilayislife. Maybelline Fashion Brow Palette is a really nice gift and it’s very cheap ha, less than 400 lang.

Water bottle or folding umbrellas. If you wanna be extra, give her 2 of each.

Toiletries Gift Sets like the one from Dove is also a good gift for teachers.

What you should not give to teachers: PLANNER! because according to my teacher friend, teachers are busy they have no time to plan haha

Pre-Christmas Warehouse Sales In Pasig

Before Christmas, there’s pre Christmas Sale and for some reasons, everyone thought ASEAN week was the perfect week to start their pre Christmas warehouse sale. Being the #KuripotMom I am, I went to almost all Pre-Christmas Warehouse Sales In Pasig and shared it on Mommy Blogger Pehpot Facebook Page (because #sharingiscaring). Ang daming good finds. Swerte yung mga nakatangap ng 13th month pay ng maaga, nakapag shopping na ng mga pang regalo nila.

Pre-Christmas Warehouse Sales In Pasig

First Pre-Christmas Warehouse Sales In Pasig: Filstar Warehouse Sale

Filstar is a company that distributes brands such as Art Attack, BIC, Hallmark, Craft Easy, Martha Stewart brand, Creation Ballons and more. Basically, stationeries and papers. Think of a big warehouse na puro papel! Ang alikabok mga bes!

I am really thankful that I am using Downy Anti-bacterial on our clothes. During this season where everyone is busy and there is just so much going on with our lives, I shift to Downy Anti-bacterial.

Una nga ang daming warehouse sale na pupuntahan. Just imagine all dirt na kakapit sa damit ko, I can’t imagine! Downy Anti-bacterial kase has an active ingredient that prevents germ growth that is the cause of foul odor on clothes. Parang nadudulas ang germs sa damit kapag may Downy.

Second, since Christmas season na, syempre the curtains and anything tela around the house eh medyo pang matagalan ang display. Before using those, I wash with Ariel and rinse with Downy Anti-bacterial to protect it from foul odors (kahilig pa naman mag prito ng tuyo sa alsmusal).

By the way, Filstar will have another sale on December 1! Iuupdate ko kayo of course.

Next Pre-Christmas Warehouse Sales In Pasig: Gingersnaps Warehouse Sale

Eto pa isa na aside from good finds, mag uuwi ka din ng sandamakmak na alikabok at dumi. Warehouse talaga and no aircon. In fairness, pag matyaga ka maghanap, you can find items that is of good quality like the photo above. Of course, I used Downy Anti-bacterial on those clothes before ko tinago sa aparador ni Baby Marius.

Last (that I checked) Pre-Christmas Warehouse Sales In Pasig: MSI-ECS Warehouse Sale

Aircon mga bes, but the line is super duper loooong! Some people even spend the night here just to be the first in line. In fairness to them, somes mobile phones are at 80% off. Sulit naman ang pag aantay.

My sister bought a laptop, inabot sya halos ng maghapon to finish her transaction.

Marami pang warehouse sale here in Pasig. I am eyeing Scholastic Warehouse Sale, Book For Less warehouse sale (extended until November 30), and the 2nd run of Filstar Warehouse Sale. Pero before that, maglalaba muna ako ng damit at magbabad ng damit sa Downy Anti-bacterial because for sure, labanan na naman sa alikabok at sa bacteria ito!
