The New Shawill Mono Eyeshadow

I've been buying Shawill eyeshadows for some time and I really like how pigmented they are and at the same time affordable. Yes, I know I said I'm going to stop buying new make up especially the eyeshadow but I just can't resist them.


I have two reasons.

1. The packaging is so cute that it reminds me of etude. Not really etude eyeshadows but their funky packaging designs like their hair brush and organizers. :P
2. It is incredibly cheap. How cheap??? Php 69 (that's USD 1.5)

(Look... my nails are pale. :P)

69 for real.

And so I bought three shades that I can use for my everyday look. 

Shade 01

Shade 02

And shade 06

Shade 02 and 06 looks the same at a glance. But when I swatched them, there's a huge difference.

Shade 02, 01, 06 respectively

The SA told me that these eye shadows really last longer and more pigmented than the first set of eye shadows the company released. And I agree. I'm so excited to use shade 01. :) 

The pigment is somehow comparable to that of 4U2 so I really like it. I planned to buy the 4U2 pallete before but it's a little out of my budget. But now that I've discovered the new Shawill mono eyeshadow, I can get more colors while paying at a lower price. :P BTW, Shawill has a good range of colors to choose from. they have two shades of blue, then there's white, pink, green, gold and many more. Check them out. I think Watsons that carry Shawill has these already. :P 

And they also released BB CREAM. It comes with 4 shades. It's P100+ surprisingly. I didn't buy any because I'm happy with my Maybelline BB cream. :P Maybe next time. Haha.

Anyway, I bought other stuffs too.

I bought two of Shade 01. I'm going to give it as a gift for my friend who's just 

starting to like make up. Haha. ^_^

I bought it for P125 @ Fanny Serano

It's really slim. :P I saw Elle via Youtube using a slim eyelash curler. :P

And she likes the effect of using this type of curler so I bought this with no second thoughts.

I bought an Eyeliner. I've been using Sara Lee Eye Liner that was actually my mom's. 

So I thought of buying my own. :P And it's smudge proof. 

Black. :P

Thanks for reading my blog!

Have a great day!

Updates!!!!

Yesterday I went to Gateway to see a movie with my boyfriend. After the movie, I've decided to have a quick look at watsons and see if they have new make-up stuffs. And I didn't fail. THERE ARE NEW MAKE-UP brands!

Watsons already has SHAWILL and 4U2. I've seen 4U2 in SM. Cubao and Marikina. I think all SM has that brand but it's really a convenient thing that watsons now has it.

The 12 eyeshadow pallete of Shawill... is.. again... SOLD OUT. I went to the 4U2 stall. They sell super cute eyeshadows. I think they are more pigmented than that of shawill. (i tried it and compared but, unfortunately, I don't have pictures!!!) However they're more expensive. For a price of P230+, you only have 4 eyeshadows. Their 8 eyeshadow pallete, is worth P924. I forget if it's 924 or 994. But it's bigger like the circular eyeshadows of MAC.  Hahaha. I'll check it later.

One thing you might want to check out is their more affordable packages. I'm surprised they have BB creams. YES. BB Creams for P194.00. You got that right! hahaha. It's the most affordable BB cream I've ever seen. But still I'm not convinced if it really works. The packaging is simply plastic and it's with the other make -up stuff like cheap make up brushes, eyeshadows and the like. Maybe I'll buy it later... and see if it works. A disadvantage would be no available testers for it. But for the price, I can gamble for it. :P


Another update is that I bought MAYBELLINE BB CREAM and so far! I LOVE IT!

I have a better picture of it but my phone hangs whenever I use the bluetooth so I don't know. I guess I have to get my digicam for this. :P

It's different form all the other BB creams I've tried. I've tried Elianto and even Missha Perfect BB cream Cover. Both makes your face oily but the Maybelline BB cream makes your face matte. When I applied it on my face, it's easier to apply because it's so smooth. It has a heavier coverage because as you apply it you see the consistency of the cream on your face. It really makes your face glow. But as said in other reviews, after a couple of hours or more it blends to your skin tone. (which I guess is better than fade altogether) However one thing you should know is that even if the whitening effect diminished, the coverage is still there- the blemishes are still covered and if you have uneven skin tone, it helps reduce it. I definitely recommend you to try this. In  the past, I've seen other reviews by people from abroad saying that it's not worth the price. The packaging is so small and it's almost worth a little less than P1000.

Well... BEHOLD PHILIPPINES, Maybelline BB cream is worth only P299. YES! If you're not really using so much of the cream, it can last for 4-6 months. If you really put a lot (which I think is not necessary considering the heavy coverage), maybe it can last for 2-3 months.  One tip for using this BB cream , the sales laldy told me that it acts as a foundation and/or primer. For better results, use it as a primer then put powder or foundation powder on your face. If you can afford to buy the maybelline minerals, try doing that with their mineral foundation. I think the effect is significant. If you also have the ellana minerals, try it and see better results.

Today is January 22, 2010. I have a make-up list for February that you may want to buy too! If you bought them already and you think i shouldn't buy them, just comment me and I'll really appreciate it. If you have suggestions and other ideas, COMMENT PLEASE!

1. Etude Haul with Marither ( I Still don't know if I'm going to buy the BB cream. :))
2. Ellana Minerals (I wantted to buy their kabuki then concealer, foundation, blush and lipgloss)
3. ECO TOOL BRUSHESSSS!! (A Must Have! Visit Ebay.ph for more affordable transactions... I visited a multiply which sells them but they're so much expensive like they go P1200+ exclusive of shipping)
4. NUDE LIPSTICK!!! (Can you suggest any brand??)

Well.. I can only think of 4 so there you go. If ever I can't save that much money than the list can still apply for March which is GRADUATING MONTH. Yes, I'm graduating and I think I might ask Dad and Mom for a simple gift... :)) Make up gift that's what! :P

PS. I forgot again to put watermarks. Oh well. :))

:)

Hi guys! It's been weeks since I've updated. I'm very busy with schoolwork since we'll be graduating soon! yey!

So today I bought some stuffs. If you haven't heard of Shawill cosmetics, I recommend you to give it a try. I believe it's new in the market. It's made in China or to be accurate it's packaged in China but produced in Italy. I am really interested with their eye shadows because they're very pigmented and affordable. I also bought make-up cake from Ever Bilena because I heard it really last long. I haven't used any foundation cake or powder when I started wearing make up. I started with liquid foundation so this is really something new to me. I hope the results will be promising. :P

I bought these items at Sta. Lucia Mall. :D

P98

*the white brushes are from E.L.F (I bought them a long time ago)

The black ones are Shawill brushes. At worth under 100 pesos, you have the

brush case, lip brush, and two eyeshadow brushes- one for the crease and the other

is for blending.

P50+

Foundation sponge

P150 pesos

P128

:D

Oh yeah... I realized just now that I should be putting watermarks in my pictures. Hahaha. I'll do that next time. Anyway, I really have a busy weekend. I have a literary analysis to make and although I'm really looking forward to it... being a senior makes you just want to end it all, graduate, party and go bum around for summer. HAHAHA

Well, I gotta start reading these books and articles. MAGIS. hahaha. You gotta love being an Atenista. A.M.D.G.- A.ng M.atulog D.i G.agraduate.

:P
