Products not worth the hype by camiloveskiwi
- Best Cruelty-Free Sunscreens by Phyrra — an awesome list, if you’re thinking of cutting out non-CF brands from your skincare. Too bad none of them are available here!
- Addiction: Basquiat Ready-to-Wear Eyeshadow reviews by Belly of Wondegondigo — HUHU Intense jealousy! I LOVE Basquiat, he is my favorite of all time. I asked my sister’s friend, Steph, to get me some of these palettes before they were released, but I’m not sure if she was able to get any for me, since she’s busy with work. ANYWAY. These are pretty, pretty. I am in love.
- Reader Question: Should I get a peel or microdermabrasion? by Liz of Project Vanity
- Lipstick Week by Romila Marie of Run Barbie Run — yay!
- Lipstick Week by Wiji of Dandelion Whiskers — double yay!
- Rouge Bunny Rouge Orpheline Original Skin Blush review by Sunny of Mostly Sunny
I don’t know what happened—I guess it was a slow week? In any case, have a happy rest of the weekend! I’ll be on the look-out for great new reads this week.
I like when gurus/bloggers get real about products they don’t like every once in awhile. It’s nice to mix up the super positive reviews with the negative every once in a while.
Isn’t it refreshing? 😀 It gets so tiring when everything gets raved about all the time!
Hey Carina, thanks for the link love! I think things have slowed down a little in the blogosphere indeed. It’s normal though. I’ll have to get really creative to pull through July/August, because everybody is on holiday and nothing new will come out 😉 I think it’s different in the US but still. When there’s a lot of sun bloggers get distracted as well!
Haha! Well, that’s understandable. 🙂 Sun is awesome, but when it’s around 7 days a week (like how it is here!), it can get tiring, too! Still, enjoy your holiday 😀
Hi Carina! Found the Supergoop sunscreens mentioned by Phyrra at Beauty Bar (Podium and Bonifacio High Street). Also found 133ml tubes of the St. Ives Green Tea Scrub at Somera (new wing of Glorietta). I’ve been following your blog for quite some time, and most of your recommendations really do work well for me. Thanks! 🙂
Hey Anna, thanks for letting me know! I actually found the full sized St. Ives scrub, but recently found out that they now test on animals so I won’t be repurchasing it. But thank you for letting me know.
I’m glad that most of my recommendations have worked for you. Hopefully you find this place more helpful than not. 🙂 Have a great week!
