Product Review : Koh Gen Do Aqua Foundation

Product of the Week : Koh Gen Do Aqua Foundation

I was at Beauty Bar the other day and was checking out some foundations to try and my eye caught Koh Gen Do Aqua Foundation i heard lots of great and not so great reviews about this product, since super curious ako about this i bought one and tried it out for  myself well here's the verdict :

I got the Koh Gen Doh aqua foundation with spf 15 in OC-1. Overall  it's has a very natural finish . using a stippling brush I only applied one layer of foundation, pero di pa ako convince since I can still see some blemishes and redness on my skin. So two layers later here is the result. The foundation feels smooth on my skin di sya masyado heavy very good for our current weather which is super init. If you put too much product and mag pipicture - picture ka you will notice white cast in flash in your photos. (it's a high definition makeup) magmumukha kang momoo :), unfortunately i had lack of sleep nung tiniry ko kaya may eyebags ang girlash :) .

For  me  winner sa akin ang  KGD Aqua Foundation really feels smooth on my skin. If you check  the KGD website, you will see the that formula is designed with something called a 'golden ratio', which consists of 45% water, 35% emollients, and 20% powder, to give skin a lustrous yet translucent finish with coverage to endure throughout the day. The formula also has no artificial colours, fragrances, petroleum based mineral oils or parabens.

All-in-all, KGD Aqua Foundation is probably one of the most natural foundations I've come across, it really feels as though I'm not wearing anything on my skin. I love love love how soft and smooth the formula is and even on my greasy days, it lasts and lasts AND lasts! Unfortunately KGD Aqua Foundation is very very pricey so tipid ako on using this on my face pang special occasions lang he he he...  as i have said in my previous post find a foundation that will looks natural on you try and explore other products that will suit your skin and your budget.

Happy Foundation hunting girls...!!!!

Moisturizer

Happy New Year!!! This will be my first blog entry for 2013 so please bear with me if i have any misspellings or wrong grammars...he he he!

Moisturizer is the key to keeping skin hydrated and looking fresh. I started using moisturizer when i was 23 years old and until now, you can say im a big fan of moisturizers whether gel , water based or cream type. 

When you are selecting a moisturizer, choose a formula for your skin type. You can find moisturizers for all types of skin- oily, dry, combination, normal, or acne-prone. You know you are using the right moisturizer when skin looks hydrated , free of pores , you look radiant but not shiny.

Im a moisturizer freak!!  There are a lot of moisturizing products in the market, I've used four or five different kinds of moisturizers until i found the right one for me. I have combo to oily skin and hiyang  ako sa The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream in the morning and The Body Shop Vitamin E night cream  medyo expensive pero i have been using it since i was 23 years old and now that i am 36 years old i can say na ok sya for me. So ladies and even guys I suggest that as early as 18 years old you can start using moisturizers. di nyo naman kailangang ng maraming beauty regimens always follow this simple rules to keep your skin looking fresh and hydrated  1.Cleanse, 2.Tone and  3.Mosturize and dont forget to put on SPF when going out. Don't forget to moisturize the delicate eye area may products din separate for your eye area so choose a product na hiyang din kayo. I can suggest different moisturizing products out in the market na affordable and medyo expensive. Pero kayo pa rin ang masusunod when it comes to choosing the right moisturizer for your skin.
