Shiseido Makeup Workshop with Angela Boh

I felt really happy when I was one of the few people who were exclusively invited to the Shiseido Makeup Workshop with the Regional Training Manager, Angela Boh.

We were all given our own space with the brushes, sponges, and the newest Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush (left)! So excited to do a video on this and review it as well, it’s one of the cutest brushes I’ve ever used!

It was so much fun learning from Angela Boh! She’s truly a pro!

The workshop had a twist! We were all competing for a 25,000 shopping spree at Shiseido!

We were all given our own models. Here is Mello without any makeup on:

The amazing foundation I used on Mello is the newest Radiant Lifting Foundation. For Shiseido’s Autumn/ Winter 2012 Collection, they are launching products that can achieve natural, glowing and flawless look.

“The Radiant Lifting Foundation has the “Radiant Reflective Complex” which applies the light-bouncing and illuminating effect of a reflective board used by most photographers.”

To give color and highlight on the face, I used the Shiseido’s Camellia Compact, also part of the Autumn/Winter Collection 2012. The Camellia Compact comes in three shades: Rich Rose, Spring-Petal Pink, and Icy-Cool Platinum.

A couple more products all laid down on my area.

Here we have the Shiseido Perfect Mascara which gave beautiful definition to the lashes of my model.

We have the Natural Finish Cream Concealer which gave awesome coverage on Mello’s face.

For the eyes, I used the purple Shiseido eye shadow. Great pigmentation, indeed!

I finished off with Lacquer Rouge for the lips.

“Lacquer Rouge  is a collection of pigmented liquid lip colors. It has the simplicity of a lip gloss with the color intensity of a lipstick. It comes in twelve shades, from subtle nudes to bold plums.”

Here’s an after photo of me and my model, Mello:

My First Saladbox! What’s Inside?

I was in the middle of vlogging the ending of my Vlogtober Day 4 video when my first Saladbox package arrived.

Haven’t heard of Saladbox? Read my intro blog post about it here.

I love the packaging. It’s very simple, neat and classy! No fuss at all.

Upon opening I saw the “description card” as I like to call it. It’s where all the info about the products inside are printed on. Apparently, this first box is called “FILIPINO PRIDE”. Why? Because all the products inside are proudly from the Philippines!

I opened up the wrappers even more, and ta-daaaaah!

I actually have never heard of some of the brands in this box! It’s always great to try out new stuff, though!
