Paul & Joe Protective Fluid Foundation S in 103

NOTE: 103 is lighter in real life. Panasonic Lumix always makes things/people appear a bit more yellow. The pictures below are more accurate than this one.

Loyal blog followers know that I am an avid fan of Paul & Joe Beaute. :3

This is one of the reasons why I remain loyal to the brand. 

The bottle is so pretty! :3 It has a pump dispenser that's very handy and easy to use. Never pumps out more than the amount desired.

1. swatch. sorry about messing it up. 

2. blending...

3. partially blended. 

4. I forgot to take a picture with the product fully blended in, ok? I have many FOTDs wearing this foundation and will take another one next week so you can see what it looks like when it's applied.

I can only say good things about this foundation. I like it as much as I like Chanel's Vitalumiere Aqua. The only downside is the price, which some people may find a bit expensive for them. I don't mind investing on foundations because I think base makeup is very important to people like me, who don't have perfect skin. 

And if I may add, Paul & Joe's ingredients are always safe and never break me out. 

I also have Paul & Joe's Foundation Protective Fluid Foundation N. There were mixed reviews on it before and that does have a very fluid like texture whereas this one has more of a gel-like consistency that reminds me of my other favorite foundation. Once applied, it gets easily absorbed by the skin. One can use fingers, sponges or brushes and I find that it's almost fool proof.

It feels light on the skin and actually has a mild tingling effect which I really like because of the weather we have in my country. It feels more like tinted moisturizer because it's very light. The coverage is medium; while you might need a concealer to cover dark eye circles and pimple marks it will help hide minor flaws.

The finish is dewy but not to the point that it will make you like a grease-ball. It actually looks rather natural, as if you have very healthy and glowing skin. It photographs well too. I am obsessed with foundations that don't have a flashback as you may have noticed by now.

For those with dry skin, I believe this won't dry or flake on you nor settle on fine lines. 

I think I have collected most of Paul & Joe's Foundation and this one if my favorite among the bunch.

Paul and Joe Philippines is located at Rustan's Makati in the Philippines. Their SA's are very nice, well informed about their products and attentive. :)

A Haul of All Sorts..

This is a collective haul  post, from last week to this day. :) Please don't scroll down if you do not want to see hauls. Thank you! ^-^ 

Paul & Joe Protective Fluid Foundation S

Price - 2,350.00 Php

Chanel Vitalumiere is still my HG and favorite foundation but if I were to choose a 2nd best this would be it. Let me know if you want to see a review on it. It has a mild cooling sensation which I love! However, I find that my skin still gets oily after 3 hours. :( 

I wasn't supposed to get this but 3 sets were sold while I was there so I couldn't resist buying since it was such a good deal at 2,350Php. :)

The set includes: Intensive Whitening Essence (100 ML), Light Cleansing Milk N (25ml), Refreshing Skin toner (25ml) and Whitening Serum (5ml) + pouch

I still have many skincare products I ought to finish so I will be keeping these as backups. 

Random Korean Haul:

Nail polishes and are under Php 200Php; lipliner is also under 200Php and the gel liner is below 600Php.

3 nail polishes from the Face Shop. All the colors are opaque. :)I also picked up some tools from there but did not include it in the picture.

Tony Moly Eyeliner Gel in Brown and Berry Lovely Lip Liner in 01.

_DiscoHeaven - Stereo Headphones

Price - 1,790.00

New headphones because Hamham(my sister) keeps using mine. I saw these really cute headphones from Nikki's blog which I thought were really pretty so I got myself one. Hamham now claims this as hers though so I suppose I ought to get another one but I really like this color. :/

I finally got the Sigma Cleansing and Polishing Tool! 

YAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!! =) I was so excited to try this that I just used it and assumed that the white bristles were the softest. It hurt!!! After I finished washing my face I checked the leaflet and found out it was the firm one. >.< Lesson learned: Read instructions next time and don't get too excited. 

I also recieved various samples and products from Pammy because we had an exchange gift. LOL! YAAAYYYY!!! <3 Thank you so much Pammycakes! <3 I would have taken a picture of the cute packaging but my little sister ruined it. hehe. >.< I have tried the BB cream, the shampoo. :D

I am so excited to try everything! <3

Have a great weekend everyone! :3
