[cutiecam]

sand beige ako sa revlon sis sa serum im 53

[Stella_r]

^^Thanks sis Antigone! Buff is a little light for me eh so siguro I'm 53 nga sa Bourjois.

^Sis cutiecam, is 53 a perfect match for you? Yung Sand Beige perfect match din ba? I think I became paler lately eh so medyo dark na yung Sand Beige for me pero it's summertime so I'll be darker again in no time. Hehe.

I'm so excited to try Bourjois na.. is it really comparable to Colorstay in terms of coverage (medium and buildable) and the staying power for oily skin?

[ladychris17]

^ no sis, if anything bourjois is for dry to normal. Also, less coverage than colorstay to, ng malayo haha

[calin22]

^^im using 52, sand beige and buff ako sa colorstay..
Dalawa sis yung bourjois healthy mix, may serum at original. Original mas may coverage, serum sabi nila mas naturally look.. For coverage, I think halos same sila ni colortstay.. In my own way ng application.

[Antigone]

Na try ko na both serum and original. Parang makapal si colorstay ng hamak kesa sa original, lalo na sa serum. Pero 2 years ago ko pa na swatch si colorstay so pwedeng mali ako. I remember that kasi to be heavy duty talaga eh.

[chirochan]

same here super heavy ni colorstay hindi ko sya macocompare sa healthy mix, mas comparable si healthy mix sa guerlain parure extreme, for me po ha

[ladychris17]

Parasa akin si serum naman comparable sa laneige. Haha. Pero mas may coverage padin si laneige, which is medium, yung colorstay kasi full na.
Meron ako dito colorstay kasi hindi ko pa siya natatapon, since hindi ko nga siya naubos dahil sobrang bigat at parang nagtighten pa lahat ng pores pag siya gamit, ramdam talaga yung foundation. Ang hirap pa tanggalin grabe.

Bourjois is more for everyday use, mabilis tanggalin, mabilis iapply, and very blandable compared to colorstay. Pati finish iba, kasi bourjois medyo dewy, yung colorstay matte kung matte.

[calin22]

what i do para di maging heavy [textspeak!] CS, i use moisturizer mist sa face ko minsan.. so basa ang face ko upon application.. pero mas maganda ang effect ni CS saken pag basang sponge (cheap sponge na nabili ko sa drugstore sa SG).. actually parang wala lang ang dating sa feys ko ni CS pag ganun ang application... 1 layer lang kasi my face does not need a lot of coverage.. i opted for CS nuon kasi kinaya niya ang oily feys ko.. kaso ayawko ng welldone effect

for burjois (original mix), i use a foundation brush.. no mist or water. pareho lang ng dating ni CS.. (dahil sa method of application ko), okay din siya sa oily feys.. at yellow tone siya kaya ok!

CS kasi saken looks kinda grey minsan.. so ayun

Sis calin22, syo ko kaya naisip tong bourjois. Haha! I guess nag die down na yung excitement ko sa CS kaya nag hahanap na naman ng bago. Pero sis does it last the whole day or you use a primer for the Healthy Mix? Sobrang insecure kasi ako sa face ko so I always go for medium to heavy coverage and my face is mega oily na kahit gaano ko ka love yung Photoready, halfday pa lang wala na siya sa mukha ko. I think na eliminate na si Serum. Original nalang siguro papabili ko.

Sis ladychris17, best in sipag at tyaga po talaga kasi ako sa pag lagay ng foundation and all the rest every single morning. Thank you!

Sisses chirochan and Antigone, thank you sa input and opinions!

[chirochan]

sis stella sakin all day nagsstay ang healthy mix basta may powder pangretouch, i love kraves oil eliminator for this

[Stella_r]

^But how is you skin sis? Oily? Mega oily? Hehe. Erg. Meron ako ng powder- Ellana na leftover nalang kasi since CS I never needed to retouch na. But anyway, thanks! I'll try Bourjois and see how it goes.

[chirochan]

ay sorry sis stella r di ko nasabi engeng ko talaga, mega oily skin ako sis acne-prone pa

Oily-combination ako sis, pero honestly moisturizers really help para mabalance out yung skin mo.. sensitive din ang skin ko, madalas nagkakaron ako small few pimples pag di ako hiyang sa mga face products.. i dont have acne.. my skin need less coverage talaga problem ko lang yung oily feys and dry patches on my tzone kaya moisturizers talaga..whole day naglalast ng healthy mix for me.. you can also try mufe mat velvet.. siya yung HG foundation ko..

ay sis isa pa, i dont put my foundation agad agad.. i set my face with moisturizer then after 1 hour.. tsaka lang ako naglalagay ng foundation.. that method works me.. di ko lang alam sa iba..

[ladychris17]

^sis gano ka tagal ka magready? haha sorry na curious lang ako parang ang tagal kasi ata nun, pano pag morning? gusto ko kasi gayahin

[calin22]

^hmm.. eto ginagawa ko.. since kulang talaga ang prep time ko sa morning.. tulog mantika kasi ako.. I do my extensive showering sa gabi.. then quick shower sa morning (as in 15mins lang.. bawi ko yung sa gabi) then i wash my face with one cleanser (no toners) and then apply my moisturizer.. then i'll wait for it to settle.. hinahayan ko na sa travel time magset yung moisturizer nasa car naman ako.. then sa office na ako magmumukup ganun.. 20mins lang ako magmakeup - i usually bring cosmetic jars kasi mabigat yung full size hehe.. di naman matagal sis tin! mabilis lang.. i dont use eye makeups or highlighters.. I fix my hair, do my foundation, lips, cheeks then sometimes curl my lash...

[ladychris17]

Ooh kaya pala. Akala ko 1 hour sa bahay lang bago pa magmumukap. Haha. Mabilis din naman pala

Since na-ot ko na, back to topic ko na din haha
Yung healthy mix serum pala saakin long lasting din naman. Blot blot lang talaga kasi nagooil pero hindi siya nagffade.

[cutiecam]

sis stella baka dapat mas light na kasi there are days na sakto siya sakin pero minsan medyo off siya pero di naman ganun kahalata kasi natural yung finish niya di ganun kakapal what i have kasi is the serum

[Stella_r]

ay sorry sis stella r di ko nasabi engeng ko talaga, mega oily skin ako sis acne-prone pa

Sige sis. thanks! I'll try Bourjois and see kung anong finishing powder might work for me.

[Stella_r]

^^ Sis cutiecam, does it ever oxidize on you?

Sis calin22, I don't have 1 hour every morning to let my moisturizer set kasi I medyo tedious yung ritual ko. Haha! My first step is moisturizer with sunblock then primer. but thank you!

Sis ladychris17, I guess mas light nga yung coverage ng serum so healthy mix original nalang sakin..

Super thank you for the great help!
