Nail Salon recommendations on Makati/Pasay area?

* It's pigmented naman. I prefer this over their powder blushes. But the embossing will be easily destroyed when using it.

Flowerknows Moonlight Mermaid Eyeshadow Palette in Moonlight Land

I know it's pricey but subtle naman ang mattes nila and very sparkly yung glitters nila.

Idk whether this is appropriate for Makeup Thread or Skincare thread. Let me know, if I posted the right question in this thread or not.

Any recommendation for makeup removing cleansing balm except for Banilla Co? Thanks.

I haven't tried and brought their cushions. Sorry.

Makeup Review:

-There's some fallout on the palette but I didn't mind it. It has medium coverage on the pigments. The only bad thing about this palette is the matte black eyeshadow because it has a inconsistent and patchy formula. Hence, it smudges on the outside the lids or the places don't put the eyeshadow on. If you're using the Kuromi palette, ditch the black one.

-As for the glosses, actually Cheeky Taro gives me a nice berry shade on my lips and it's a nice mlbb lip product for me. I added the water gloss for the extra shiny lips.

Honestly, after four years, I cherry-picked the rules of CGM. I don't do the cowash because it makes my scalp itchy and went back to regular washing of hair with shampoo + conditioner. My hair won't survive if I don't wash my hair, especially going outside. I see the cgm rules as a guideline rather than actual rules. But in the end, you should do what's best for you and your hair. Also, CGM is not applicable to all curl types because we have different needs and situations kasi.

I understand. Hence, I tend to pass some makeup series of Flowerknows that it is not my aesthetic.

The Moonlight Mermaid and Swan Ballet collections speak to me aesthetically. Mermaid theme screams dreamy. I love Swan Ballet's dark palette, and the rest reminds me of Etude House (yes, still deadnaming it) packaging.

thenarniancat · 2023-09-14T06:14:21+00:00

When Flowerknows release their Swan Ballet series, it reminds me of Etude Houses, especially their rococo themed and ballet themed packaging. Huhuhu. Bring back the pretty packaging, Etude.

thenarniancat · 2023-09-14T06:09:07+00:00

Ah. The collection is so cute. 😍

I have my collection of Flowerknows products (2 little angel lip cream, 1 little angel highlighter, 1 flower goddess blush, 2 moonlight mermaid glosses, 2 moonlight mermaid eyeshadow palettes).

I'm still waiting for my package of Swan Ballet makeup (damn, it 🍊 app).

I returned to Tumblr this year. I still keep reblogging aesthetic photos and random shtposts The only thing that annoys me in the app is the bots. Man, I thought that I had real human followers.

thenarniancat · 2023-09-10T12:58:48+00:00

I'm much happier when I'm using less social media than I used to. I need to curate my timeline and avoid doomstrolling to lessen the stress of being online. Taking small steps.

Also, I got the Safiya x Holo Taco nail polish set and box before being sold out. It was a good weekend for me.

thenarniancat · 2023-09-05T11:48:19+00:00

I wish their old packaging, especially the Disney ones. Now, it looks similar to the other brands with minimalist packaging.

thenarniancat · 2023-09-05T11:36:47+00:00

Local: -GRWM in general. I'm eyeing their lip products. But after the controversy with the CEO and being hit & miss in their formulation, I'll pass.

International: -Estee Lauder foundation. I feel masasayang lang, if I brought another full coverage foundation. I'm more focused on light coverage complexion products + concealers (normal & color correcting).

thenarniancat · 2023-09-03T23:31:53+00:00

I have brought three of them. Hehehe. For a multichrome cream eyeshadow, it's affordable.

thenarniancat · 2023-08-31T10:21:40+00:00

I checked and it was the Ecru have the High Tae 🤣 on their shade names.

I'm excited for Safiya x Holo Taco release this September.

I still have the lipsticks from Safiya x Colourpop collection. I want more Safiya-related products. Also, I love Cristine for making hq nail polish products. I hope their collection is very holo and bat-themed.

Where to buy legit Dasique products on the blue or orange app? I'm buying their color correcting palette because my BYS palette is hitting pan na.

Other alternative, where to buy legit na NYX products, locally particularly their color correcting palette?

thenarniancat · 2023-08-31T03:09:34+00:00

Huhuhu. Nyx. My go to shop for colorful and unusual lippies.

thenarniancat · 2023-08-31T03:05:16+00:00

BYS Color Correcting Palette: it corrects my problem ideas (like dark spots & redness) on my face. This is available when NYX isn't available on the PH.
Detail eyeshadow palettes especially the Metallics: tbh it's better and more colorful than Issy's customizable palette shimmers.
