ELIZABETH: Etta's Compact Skin Whitening Powder

Hey guys! How are you? We've been so busy AND HAPPY we might throw a giveaway! hahaha It is so much harder to cook up a giveaway than I thought, but still... Anyways, I will be sharing to you my experience using this product ^(see the title post again). 

Presenting to you, the Etta's Compact Skin Whitening Powder! This is good for skin beauty lightening. As I say on my second post, I will be blogging about Etta's bleaching powder! How I came up to this is because I am preparing for my upcoming wedding! So, this product only cost Php.180 per box. I bought this at Market Market, but you can also purchase this at any Hortaleza shop.

One box of Etta's bleaching powder has 2 plastics inside.. 

This one is the Etta's Mixing Solution, hydrogen peroxide 10 volume. This product only cost Php.25 per bottle.

So, this is what it looks like when you mix the whitening powder and the mixing solution. You should stir it in one direction to trap the bubbles and expand the mixture, until it looks like a melted ice cream...

This is the texture of the bleach, applied wet on areas you wanna whitens...

Let it dry for about 10 to 15 minutes, when I first try this, It was actually too painfully irritating, I can't  bear the itchiness I feel, that I had to wash it off in less than two minutes! I can't keep myself from scratching my skin... I know patience is a virtue, I am a patient person but just not in that particular moment! :/

After washing it off, this is the result. Some marks of redness occur because of scratching. I tried this product for about two weeks but sometimes I washed it off even if its not dry yet because I can't bear the itchiness I feel, no scratch that, I suffer! This product is effective but I decided not to use this all over my body because of the pain I'll suffer! (insert maarte laugh here) hahaha...So, I will only use the left product for my dark areas such as elbows and knees! ;)

I hope this review helped you about Etta's bleaching powder.

P.S. That is my inner leg right there just in case you are wondering... #weirdangle
And you might wanna try this if you are looking for a more easier way of bleaching, and challenge yourself: Can you bear the itchy-monster?:)

And if you want to know how to prepare the bloody-hard-yet-effective Original Homemade Bleaching Mixture, I might share it with you! Just say "pretty you, pretty please with a cherry on top!"

live, love, laugh,

Beth :)

Nichido Final Powder

I'm guilty of not setting my liquid  foundation with a powder because I don't want to look cakey, and I used to rely on just puffing pressed powder sometimes, hence my make up tends to melt and face becomes an oil factory in midday... but not anymore, I came out of my stubborness and decided to end my dillema using this Nichido Finishing Powder.

Here you could see the sleek packaging...

It stays true to its promise of giving a light sheer effect. Skin looks soft and "naturally" glow. It could also even out my skintone and hide my redness on the side of my nose and cheeks. These are the swatches on my arms with and without flash.

See how it melts on my skin? This natural color is the perfect shade for my yellowish skintone, by the way, this shade is in So Natural. Its like having just a healthy glowing skin aka no-make-up make up effect on me.

Look at how full this tub is! That is a lot of product for a Php150.00! Not bad eh? And I recommend this for those like me who are new in make up and want to invest on a final powder for everyday use. :)
