Review on: Careline Oil Control Blush-on.

Isn't it nice to have a blush-on that gives you a natural looking pinkish cheeks? Well for me it is :) That's why I decided to create a blog entry about this product.

Careline is a sister company of  Ever Bilena, and I think careline caters on Teenage girls like Allue of Sansan, which is another awesome makeup brand.

This is what the sales lady gave me (Pinkish Blush), even if I asked for the charming pink shade. Anyway they looked exactly the same maybe this was just mislabeled? I'm really not sure.s Btw, this came with a puff, which is not that ideal for blush-on application but I still use the puff in setting my foundation with a powder, it does a wonderful job :)

As for the ingredient and other info. here is a photo of the back packaging.

             My thoughts on this product                  

Good:

• I really like the packaging because its small and compact.
• I also like this shade which shows up naturally in my skin.
• Doesn't have a nasty smell.
• Cheap! This is only Php 80.00 roughly $2.
• As for the oil control I'm not really sure if it does controls my oil build up, but it stayed on my cheeks all day long.
• Available in 711, leading drugstore and mall nationwide.

Bad:

• None actually.

Rating: 10/10

If you are looking for a nice pinkish blush on well this one great product. I remembered Ms. Say once said that this reminds her of ELF's blush-on in shy. :) Hope you found this helpful. Thank you so much for reading!

Review: Careline Mineral Blush-on 2

Hi everyone! I'm back for a new product review. I've been hunting for a good contouring powder for the past I guess... 3 months now. But I don't want to spend too much on it. But then I ended up spending too much because all of the products that I bought disappointed me.

You might be asking why am I currently obsessed with contouring? It's because it really makes a huge difference in your face. It makes it more defined and polished :D

Let's now talk about this product. As it says in that packaging it is a mineral blush-on and its by Careline the sister brand of Ever Bilena. This product contains shimmer which I don't like because I prefer a matte finish, but then still I purchased it because the brown pigment is really good when I swathed it at the back of my hand. This one is in the shade of Girly Frill.

It kinda looks peachy here but its not :D 

Here is a swatch. As you can see the color is really beautiful.

And here are the Ingredients.

I was so excited to be home because I really wanted to try it right away. By the time I got how I took my nc 32 brush from Marionnaud and applied it like how I apply any other blusher. Sad to say my heart broke, I was really disappointed on how it looked on my cheeks. All I can see is the shimmer. :( I really felt bad that night I've once again managed to waste my money.

See that? So dusty.

But then on new years eve I really really want to contour my face so I decided to use it but with a different way. Using a blush brush that I bought from 7 11 I applied it on my cheeks by just patting it not dragging :) And Whoa! I looked nice! The powder stayed :) So all this time it was just my fault. My guess its because its a mineral product.

Left: With Flash                                  Right: Without Flash

 As you can see it is very sheer perfect for summer :) or daytime. I like it, but I don't recommend this for flash photography as the shimmer really looks bad in it. As for the blush, I don't like shimmery blush but it's nice, I just not prefer to use it.


To wrap it up, and for additional info.

Rating: 6.5 or 7/10 ( I cant really decide :D

• The hue of this product.

I like it :) As I said it is perfect for daytime and summer.  I don't recommend this for flash photography as the shimmer really looks bad in it. If you're looking for intense and super pigmented one well I think this is not it. Look for cakes! :)

•  Was it Long lasting?

If you're sweating and touching that part much well it will fade quick for I think 2-3 hours. I have oily skin and it lasts for like 4-6 hours on my skin.

• Packaging.

I super like the packaging its very compact very small bag friendly. It comes with a little brush as you can see :)

• Price

Its cheap! I got this for only PHP 95. at Watsons, I believe it is also available at 711, Mercury drug and of course to SM dept. Store.

• Will I repurchase?

I think yes, this is a perfect for daytime use (paulit- ulit? :D

That's it!Thank you so much for reading this! hope you found this helpful :)
