Skin Food fans who live near SM North (or who can easily travel there) will have a sale of selected items up to 50% off. I just got this message on my phone this afternoon. 

I like Skin Food products and considering it’s 50% off, I suppose it’s heck lot affordable compared to their regular shop prices and will probably be competitive against online shops.  At least you get to try some of these products because they usually have testers in the boutique. :)

Will you be going? I’d probably check it out on the next pay day.  I am looking for some skin care products to try. Hopefully they’re on sale.

I am no beauty blogger. Nor a fashion blogger. But I just thought of chronicling my experiences with skin care and other such beauty products. Why? I think I should note what I slather on my face XD It makes sense to do so because I need to keep track of what works for me and what doesn’t.

Anyway, the photo shows the products that I’ve been using.

I can’t vouch for all the eye stuff because I am new to eyeliner and eyebrow pencil usage. But I love how Skin Food Peach Sake BB Cream and Buckwheat Powder combined give me that matte finish and my face isn’t as oily either. Plus my skin didn’t break out either.

Of all the lip products, I love the Tony Moly Berry Berry Magic Tint because of the pink shade it gives my lips. It’s something I use everyday because it doesn’t make me look like I’m wearing make up. As for the Etude House Two Two Kiss — I love it especially when I am going out on a date. I feel pretty when I use it. ^_^ Sometimes I use the gloss or tint with the Pink Tony Moly Berry Berry Slim Lip Stick just to experiment with the color. They’re really great that way.

I forgot to include a picture of my oatmeal container. XD Thanks to Bubz, I am now using oatmeal as cleanser. I alternate the Garnier OilClear Scrub with it. So far, so good. I used Cetaphil before but it’s a bit expensive. Oatmeal and Garnier are cheaper. And they’re effective on me. Been using them for two or three weeks now. My friend Nikki told me that oatmeal didn’t quite work for her. So I am crossing my fingers that this will continue to work for me.

Why did I take a picture of these products? I met up with my friend Rjene the other day and she asked me to do this. Lol. I realized that in a span of 2-3 months, I ended up with all these products. I didn’t buy everything in the mall though. The Skin Food products were Ebay purchases. ^^;;
