SPARKLE Cosmetics' Red and Black Eyebrow Setting Gel

Who among you ladies spend so much time doing your eyebrows??? Well, I guess many of us, (yes! including me) are having a hard time perfecting our eyebrows... I spend 10-15 minutes grooming my brows. So much time wasted isn't it? and then what, after a few hours, you'll end up touching up your brows again... but not this time!!!! I've just found my eyebrow SAVIOR!!!! :) :) :) and where else can you find it??? at Sparkle Cosmetics of course!!!! 





This Eyebrow setting gel comes in a clear tube packaging which allows you to see the shade of the product itself. The texture of this product is between a gel and a mousse. It is very light. It doesn't feel wet at all and it dries just in time you finish grooming and shaping your brows. It is long-lasting too!
It holds brows perfectly and no need for touch ups!!! and guess what ladies, you can have this baby for only 200 pesos!!!!



I don't have perfect eyebrows. I really need to focus on them since my eyebrows differ in shape.. I need to draw my desiredeyebrow shape before filling it in using my eyebrow pencil (from Sparkle Cosmetics of course). Then I applied Sparkle Cosmetics Red and Black Eyebrow Setting Gel. I really love how it sets my eyebrows plus the shade of it matches my hair color too! It also add thickness to my very uneven thin brows... This is really amazing!!!!!!

I've been using this for about a month now.. No skin irritation at all. You have nothing to worry about! All products from Sparkle Cosmetics were animal tested and hypoallergenic. 

So ladies, what are we waiting for?! Come and visit Sparkle Cosmetics where you can find

SPARKLE Cosmetics' Red and Black Moisture Rich Foundation (review)




I really don't have a flawless face that is why I'm so into foundations. I've been trying different kinds of foundations from liquid, to stick, to cream. Since I've always had an oily skin, I need to find a foundation that will not make my skin more oily and will give me the best coverage at the same time.

And so I visited my favorite Korean make-up store, the Sparkle Cosmetics. I looked around and found this Red and Black Moisture Rich Foundation. I got it for only 380 pesos. Affordable isn't it? (drugstore brand foundation ranges from 500 pesos up to 1k plus I guess). Now let me do a review about this product. Check it out below :)



unboxing the foundation


The foundation comes in a glass jar with a small spatula. It contains 30g of the product. I love the packaging. It is very handy and not that bulky when you put it in your make-up bag.


The texture is in between cream and liquid foundation. It is smooth and creamy but not too liquidy and it feels very light on skin. It is very easy to blend too especially when you apply it using a paddle brush or a blending sponge (for air brush finish).

Now let me show you the coverage of this foundation when applied on my not so flawless face. You can see my bare face in the photo below.

There were red acne blemishes and pores were so visible. After applying the foundation, (I love using blending sponge when applying my foundation), it really amazed me! It covers the blemishes, the pores and made my skin look fairer! This foundation has an amazing medium to full coverage! I love it!!!!!

(no filter)


Koreans were not into heavy foundations. That is why this product is very light. It is not cakey at all and it appears natural on skin... I would recommend this to you ladies who are looking for an affordable yet good quality foundation. This is really amazing! I've been using this for about two weeks now.. No skin irritation at all. You have nothing to worry about!All products from Sparkle Cosmetics were animal tested and hypoallergenic.

SPARKLE Cosmetics' Red and Black HD Primer (review)

Hello there make-up lovers!!! As I promised, I will be doing a review of my Sparkle Cosmetics haul for everyone to see how amazing their products are! Each week, I will be featuring my favorite product which I got from their store.. And without further ado, lets get started!!!


The Sparkle Cosmetics' Red and Black High Definition Primer is basically manufactured in Korea. This is a color correcting primer too! But ladies, correcting primer is different from correcting concealer. A green correcting primer neutralizes redness of the skin for flawless finish. That is what this HD primer does to your skin. It doesn't cover acne blemishes. That is why if you really have to cover ache blemishes, you must use a green correcting concealer after using face primer! I'll explain further other qualities of this primer as we go along...


  unboxing the HD Primer
It comes in a plastic pump bottle and contains 30ml of the product.




















It is light green in color, and has a lotion texture with a variety of skin care ingredients and firming formula that can nourish and tighten the skin, smooth the fine lines and shield external pollution and damage to the skin.

light green lotion texture

What I love about this face primer is it doesn't have a disturbing chemical scent. It smells like your typical lotion!!! plus points for me ;) And ladies, as I mentioned earlier, this is not just a make-up base, but also a shading and highlighting lotion that embellish uneven skin problems like dullness, redness and rashes and can make your skin even! Here's a before and after selfie of me using the HD Primer :)

sorry for the poor lighting.. I have a low-tech camera phone :(

I just applied the product using my fingers and blends it all over may face.. I really love the consistency of the primer. It is not sticky and not too wet. It is not overwhelming so you don't have to worry because its not gonna make your face look green when you put your favorite foundation over it. weeeeeeeehhhhhh!!!!!

This Sparkle Cosmetics' HD Primer can make face make-up more adhesive and long-lasting! Yes ladies! You read it right! and to test if this primer will hold my make-up for hours, my cousin and I went to divisoria since she wanted to look for a perfect swimsuit for summer. We went window shopping there too for about I think 4 hours walking and walking.. Omgeee girls! when I look at my mirror, my face doesn't look so oily! It lessen the oiliness of my face.. and yes! my make-up stays on my face pretty good! (Sorry I forgot to take a selfie before taking off my make-up.. my bad!) 

Wanna know how much will it cost you if you puchase this amazing Sparkle Cosmetics' Red and Black High Definition Primer? Charaaaaaaaan!The product costs 380 pesos only! Very affordable isn't it? Now ladies, let me guess, are you having second thoughts about this product? Let me tell you, put away your doubts and worries because Sparkle Cosmetics products were all animal tested and hypoallergenic too! No skin irritation at all. (well I've been using their products for months now! from my primer, foundation, eye make-up, blushes and Lipsticks). Their products may be cheaper than other popular and fast selling korean brands, but ladies, it isn't always about the price. It is about the quality of the product they offer! Remember, not all good quality make-ups are expensive! ;-)

A MakeUp Haven

Who says a lady could only achieve a flawless face using those expensive high end brands of cosmetics? Well, I will prove you wrong!!!

Here's a cosmetic store that will satisfy your makeup cravings without spending much for just a single product but will give you the same result and outcome as with those high end ones!!!

Sparkle Cosmetics

https://m.facebook.com/sparkle.starmallshaw/

It is located at 3/F Starmall Shaw in Mandaluyong City. The store is along the bridge way connecting the mall and the MRT shaw station. (Well, I live in Cavite and I'm used to taking MRT going home every weekends).

As I walk towards the mall exit going to MRT Shaw station, I saw this little store full of cosmetic products. I got so curious and so I went in... I was like "OMGeee! ang dameeeee!" as I looked around.

view from the outside...

Here are the photos of what's inside the store. By the way, this cosmetic line is basically from Korea. YES k-pop lovers! These are all Korean products! From the Primers, Foundation, Blush, Eye liners, Eyebrow Pencils, Eye shadow palette, contour palette, Mascara, concealers, Matte Lipsticks and many more! Name it and they have it!  

the foundation, contour, blush, and concealer section

makeup brushes section

eye shadow palette section and other makeup tools you might want to have....


and these are my favorites!!!! their liquid to matte glosses!!!



These are the AFFORDABLE versions of the best selling korean cosmetic brands like Etude House, The Face Shop, Nature Republic, Holika Holika, Skin Food and Laneige. The formulas they're using were pretty much the same with those popular korean brands!


Now, let me introduce the people behind their blooming success! The Sparkle Family :) Believe me, they were the best!!! All smiles even though some of the customers coming in just to window shop and trying some product testers... I love them! Really! haha!







but ofcourse, I must have a photo with them too!!!!! hahahah!!!


I'll make a review of my Sparkle haul soon!!!!!! 



Come and visit them now! Sparkle will keep you coming back for more!!!! XOXO
