Review: Clio Professional Gelpresso Waterproof Pencil Gel Liner

Updated on April 28, 2013^^

The product: Clio Professional Gelpresso Waterproof Pencil Gel Liner in Metallic Silver No. 6 Price: Around 10-12,000 won (400-480 PhP); This is available here in the Philippines for 475PhP!  Where I bought it: Artbox, Anyang, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea Rating: 10/10 (+):

• Has a smooth and creamy texture which glides easily on my eyelid
• Smudge-proof and waterproof 
• Lasts all day
• It's an automatic eyeliner which means it has a twist mechanism to reveal more of the "lead"
• Has a built-in sharpener at the bottom
• Cap fits the pencil liner perfectly--the eyeliner is well-protected
• Comes in a box which has a description of the product (sadly I lost the box already; it has been almost a year since I purchased this)
• Did not cause any allergic reaction or irritation

(-):

• Since it has a creamy texture, it can break easily if you bring out too much of the "lead" while sharpening or using it. Aside from that, I don't have anything negative to say about this eyeliner. I love it! ♥

Review: The Face Shop Herb Day Cleansing Wipes

The product: The Face Shop's Herb Day Cleansing Wipes Price: 325pesos for 70 sheets Rating: 8/10 Where I bought it: The Face Shop, Robinsons Galleria (+): 

• Functions as a good remover of light to moderate coverage makeup
• Cleanses without leaving my skin dry; it also doesn't make my skin feel sticky
• The sheet is big enough to use on my entire face.
• Each sheet is soaked just right--wet enough to easily wipe my face without dripping.
• Did not cause any allergic reactions
• Has a pleasant, non-irritating scent
• The cap/lid is functional. There is also a sticker underneath the lid which further prevents the sheets from drying up.

(-):

• The sheets can be a bit rough especially when they're not as wet as they originally were due to several wipes done on the face. Because of this, excessive wiping/rubbing can scratch the skin. But then again you have to be gentle in wiping your skin, you're not supposed to rub it, so this shouldn't be a problem :)
• This cannot remove mascara thoroughly. For non-waterproof mascaras, you need to do a few more gentle wipes on your eyes to cleanse them adequately. For waterproof mascaras, you're better off using an eye makeup remover.

Review: Dove Beauty Moisture Creamy Lather Facial Wash

The product: Dove Beauty Moisture Creamy Lather Facial Wash Price: 395pesos Rating: 9/10 Where I bought it: Watsons, SM Supercenter Pasig (+):

• Lathers well
• Rinses off easily
• Cleanses skin thoroughly
• Not very drying on the skin
• Has a light, pleasant floral scent which doesn't trigger my allergic rhinitis
• Does not cause redness or itchiness
• Does not cause me to break out (may even actually be helping keep my skin clear)
• A small amount goes a long way!
• The pump works well. It is easy to press/push and the amount of product expressed from the pump is controllable. There is also a lock included which prevents accidental presses.

(-):

• Rather expensive for a drugstore brand facial wash
• Limited availability--I've only seen this in Watsons. It's not available in the supermarkets I've been to whereas other Dove facial washes are displayed there.
• It comes in a big bottle so it may not be travel-friendly as it will take a bigger space than other facial washes.
