i was supposed to buy this in sand, but then i passed by the stall of tita fanny

Tried this in my quest of finding my HG undereye concealer. Maybelline Mineral Power Concealer ingredients: smithfield foods careers Water/Aqua, Cyclopentasiloxane, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Glycerin, Sorbitan Isostearate, Propylene Glycol, Titanium Dioxide, Ozokerite, Phenoxyethanol, Magnesium Sulfate, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Disodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Methylparaben, Acrylates smithfield foods careers Copolymer, Alumina, Butylparaben, Aluminum Hydroxide, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Calcium Pantetheine Sulfonate, smithfield foods careers Tocopherol, smithfield foods careers Dextran Sulfate, Silica, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, May Contain (+/-): CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), CI 77499, CI 77492, CI 77491 (Iron Oxides), Mica. I have the two shades they have for medium skintones- Sand and Beige. I purchased Sand first, smithfield foods careers from a fellow forum member, but found it too light for me. Still I was curious if this concealer would work for me so I got the next darker shade, smithfield foods careers Beige, from drugstore.com . Swatches: top - Sand; bottom - Beige. Blended a bit. Top - Sand; bottom - Beige. Just so you know, I only used this on my eye area, so I can't say how they do with covering up blemishes. Also, I have serious dark circles and a number of fine lines around my eyes. I applied these on my undereyes as well as on my lids which are a reddish/pinkish color. Then I set it with mineral concealer powder. What I like about it: -It felt creamy upon application, and lightweight once on. -It's unscented and did not irritate the ultra-sensitive skin around my eyes. -Blends easily. -Evened out the color on my lids. -Doesn't settle too much in the fine lines on my undereyes (settled a bit in the lines in the inner corners of my eyes. Really have a lot of them for someone in her 20's!) smithfield foods careers -Affordable price. What I don't like about it: -It's not very sheer, but didn't completely cover my severe smithfield foods careers dark circles. Better suited for people with not very dark undereye circles. -I wish they had more color options. Sand has yellow undertones but was too light for my skin. Beige was more my match but I wish it had more yellow tones to it- as the name implies, it has beige, and pink undertones. -It was okay when the weather was cooler, but when I used this out on a typical hot day in Manila, it pretty much melted off me. My lids and undereyes became really shiny after a while. Overall, it's okay for the price. It just doesn't work for me with my super dark circles and the scorching Manila smithfield foods careers heat, so I won't be repurchasing. Will blog about other concealers soon!
blog more bout concealer soon ! hehe i just bought erzulie's concealer,cant wait ! hehe i used creamy concealer once and i found that it makes my mascara smudge,maybe its the heat? October 22, 2009 at 7:59 PM

vanilla, definitely! i'll blog about erzulie's concealer next :) i can't wait for your review. yeah, that was probably because of the heat. cha, it's probably ok if you'll be staying in an air conditioned office or school all day, but if your're gonna be out, gotta reapply. glad i was of some help :) October 22, 2009 at 9:15 PM
i was supposed to buy this in sand, but then i passed by the stall of tita fanny's cosmetic line and i saw the stick concealer being raved on about in GT. it shares the same shade name, "sand" and surprisingly it didn't melt nor cake on me, and my undereyes get really sweaty easily.

hi! i already emailed you my shipping details. as for the header, find this part: #header { margin: 0; height: 400px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: -20px; background: url(https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivMrZPxrRzbdOrqLdu_7H9ZxJ0tCgk3JQ2-dnU89PNWKfmxNjzNy2OSgnynhViDbZBp4dYW9eLnW75cyxp_jI-K9qRDPv1lLIAwNBZNyoFeWnD1WFkJAV3hhxc8QdE0MeytBkbGuMIIqaP/s1600/naturals1.jpg) no-repeat top center; } and add this somewhere in between : margin-top: -*whatevernumber*px; so it becomes something like this #header { margin: 0; height: 400px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: -20px; margin-top: -80px; background: url(https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivMrZPxrRzbdOrqLdu_7H9ZxJ0tCgk3JQ2-dnU89PNWKfmxNjzNy2OSgnynhViDbZBp4dYW9eLnW75cyxp_jI-K9qRDPv1lLIAwNBZNyoFeWnD1WFkJAV3hhxc8QdE0MeytBkbGuMIIqaP/s1600/naturals1.jpg) no-repeat top center; } then make sure you move the Blog's Title up too, by assigning a smaller value to the "top:" attribute found here: #header smithfield foods careers h1 { padding:40px 0px 0 0px; line-height:1.3em; smithfield foods careers text-align: center; font: $header; color: $blogtitle; letter-spacing:.1em; position:abso
