Review : Jewel Pop Mineral Foundation

In this review, I am going to share with you my thoughts about the Jewel Pop Mineral Foundation. If you haven't heard about the Jewel Pop Cosmetics, here's a short information about them:

"JEWEL POP! Mineral Cosmetics are made from natural and organic materials that are US-FDA approved. All ingredients were sourced from US and Australia. Products are guaranteed safe, even on extra-sensitive skin. No bismuth, F,D & C pigments, parabens, and talc".

I notice that I only have 2 posts reviewing about powder foundation. So I am very glad when I received this mineral foundation as GIFT from this HAUL.
I haven't tried any product from them so I am very happy when they sent me a sample of their foundation. Since, I only have 2 to 3 posts about foundation, I decided to add this to my list.

Jewel Pop Mineral Foundation comes in this small round tube.

This is how the product looks like.

The powder may look not so fine in the picture but it is very fine in person.

It may look lighter than my complexion, but upon application it somehow a bit darker than my skin tone.

Here's the swatch of the powder at the back of my hand.

On my face:

Left picture is me with just Ever Bilena BB Cream, on the right side is me wearing the mineral foundation on top of EB BB Cream.

I really love how it refine my pores!

Love:

Powder is very fine

Easy to blend

It hides my big pores

Smooth on skin
It has super tiny shimmers

The ugly truth:

It oxidize

It doesn't stay long on my face

It doesn't work on oily skin

The scent of the powder is a little weird

Mineral foundation is very messy to use (as general)

Methinks that the powder will work for those who have dry skin. I really like the texture and how it smoothen my face and the fact that it makes my pores less visible. But it doesn't work for me specially when I layer it, it has tendency to get cakey. Nonetheless, I am still going to keep this foundation. I am planning to use this to my clients which has dry skin.

 Thank you Smoochie's for sending this to me.

Thrifty Haul : Makeup+Shoes

Last month, when I was sick, and browsing at facebook, I saw this online shop selling affordable makeup. Since it's too cheap (you know I am a sucker of cheap products) I immediately ordered some eyeshadows, since I will be needing it on October for my clients (wedding party). So yeah here are the things that I've got from Smoochies.

The products were not in perfect condition, some were discontinued or may have damaged that's why it was cheap. But I have no problem with that.

Let's get one by one:

Maybelline Eye Studio in Makeover Mocha

Maybelline Eyestudio Cream Eyeshadow in Flash of Forest

Rimmel Quad Eyeshadow in Bronzed

 Hard Candy Eyeshadow Primer

Olay Color Moist Lipstick in Heather

And a free Jewel Pop Mineral Foundation yehey!

I got them for very very cheap price.

Once "sinipag" ako, I will make a review on each product. Hopefully.

And I also bought a pair of flats from Ohrelle, when they had their clearance sale:

Got this Jolie Flats for only P379.oo with free shipping.

And that's it.

How bout you? Did you find something cheap this month?

Happy weekend everyone!
