Naturactor Cover Face Review! + First Impression

Celebrities have been raving about this on Instagram and even on Facebook. So I thought, why not give it a try? And here it is!

I bought the shade 140 and the price is Php480.00. Price ranges from 450-550 online and some even offer it on a higher price. 480.00 will do so I gave it a shot. So supposedly this will give you that flawless and dewy finish. So what is my take on this? Keep on reading...

At first I thought the shade was too light for me but when I waited for 3 minutes for it to set on my face it became okay. The smell is like the Chin Chun Su cream that women use in the 90s to whiten their faces. Are you aware of that product? It is on the photo below:
Same smell but I don't remember what Chin Chun Su does. So getting back to my topic...

My skin is super oily and acne prone. I get a lot of breakouts especially on my period so it is my ultimate quest to look for products that won't break me out and will reduce my acne and oiliness if possible.

Naturactor really is dewy. It gives you that flawless effect but the problem is dewy is not good for my skin type. I oiled up within the 3 hours from the first application and I get to retouch a lot. So I would say that this product is good for dry skin because it is very moisturizing.

After 6 hours or wearing it without retouching, my face looked like an oil factory and the foundation is almost out of my face. So I can say that this is not long lasting.

There are pros and cons to this foundation which is why I will rate this 3 stars out of 5. I like the coverage because it is build-able and the finish is next to flawless. However, the dewy effect is a bit of a let down for me so whenever I will use this in the future, I shall keep it with me for touch-ups.

I have heard of the Octard product which, as they say, has a matte finish. I shall try it soon enough but I saw that it is more expensive than the Naturactor. Is there any products that you'd like me to cover? Comment down.

Toodles!

Cursed Merida | A Disney Princess Gone Bad Collaboration






Merida is one of my favorite Disney Princesses beside from Mulan. Her personality is a lot like mine. Stubborn, does not listen to her parents, Brave, and of course the unrully hair.
In the movie Brave, it was her mom that became a bear so I thought it would be fun if I incorporated that with Merida as her Bad side.
A lot of you have asked if my hair is naturally curly. The answer is YES. But I had my hair rebonded that is why I had to recreate my curls like Merida with my No Heat Stem Curling Technique.

SO here are the items that I used:
1. Nivea After Shave Balm
2. Revlon 24 hr Color Foundation
3. Catrice AllRound Concealer
4. LA Girl Pro Conceal in Ivory
5. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder Foundation in Nude
6. Ever Bilena Lip liner
7. MAC Pro Palette
8. MAC Warm Neutral Palette
9. BYS Nude 2 Palette
10. Loreal Gel Liner in black
11. Taiwan False Lashes in Natural
12. Monomola Eyebrow Tattoo in brown
13. BYS Blush in Pink
14. Lancome Powder Foundation
15. Mary Kay Lipstick in Maple
16. Wet N Wild Megalast Lipstick in 24 carrot gold
