Save not splurge!

Hello everyone! This first post of mine will be the introduction for my blog. Well basically I will just point out things why I came up with this Shimmer (being that fierce-head-turning-diva) by being in sage (spending wisely, SAVE SAVE SAVE) ..

I'm not really a make up addict until I saw a very hot item on instagram. Its the Naturactor Concealer that had a lot of good reviews. Since it was my birth month, I was like hey why dont I give it a try.. Its around 650 pesos.. Plus the pressed powder that is also around 650 pesos. Plus the shipping fee.. Then the money transfer fee...... So MAHAL!! So there I tried it! Pakkk! I was a good product! But dang.. After 2 days I BROKE OUT!!! 

I was is denial.. I thought was just hormones but it was not! 

*Naturactor concealer and powder, Fanny Serrano True light lip gloss, Lebelage eyeshadow and eyeliner (bought this 2 @300 pesos) 


So this brought me to realizations.. 


To Save and not to splurge..

1. Quality and quantity- Branded products usually have good quality. Nevertheless it's way better to have A LOT of good quality products by being a wise spender.

2. Guilt Free- when you buy expensive products and then end up hating it like I did, you'll be a broke chick with bad break outs.. Ehem! 

3. Pinay Beauty- local cosmetics are cheaper than imported ones (you wont pay for the shipping fees, taxes etc). We do have a lot of good and quality products specifically made for the Pinay skin and the Philippines' weather. Knowing us Pinoys, we do have a lot of dupes to the higher end products.. 

So there you go! Off to my next blog..

Thank you for reading ❤️
