Check Out These Affordable Home and Beauty Finds

Hey there, how are you doing? It's been raining nonstop, but I hope you had a great start this September. 


And speaking of September, it's that time of the year again! The Christmas season has begun in the Philippines. Expect stunning decorations in the city's major malls and tons of holiday promos (plus loud Christmas songs). 


Affordable Home and Beauty Finds


Anyhow, I’m here to share a few awesome products with you today- all tried and tested. Of course, I've also included the Shopee shop links, just in case you want to try them out, hehe.



Customized Condiment Bottles


I was looking for condiment bottles on Shopee and found these from Get Organized Co., a store that sells all sorts of containers. I like how there was an option to customize the tags, and that's the reason I chose these over the other options. It did not disappoint.

The bottles are available in Off White (400 or 500 mL), and for the labels, different formats are available for you to choose from. You can then send them the actual text you want on the tags. The stickers are of good quality, so there is no need to worry about them peeling. You only need to let them set first before filling up the containers.

Home Cleaning Essentials: Pledge and BioGlow


Now, we move on to some cleaning essentials; I can talk about this all day, but today’s spotlight goes to Pledge and BioGlow. 


Pledge


I have been using Pledge ever since. I grew up seeing my dad use it for our tables, painting frames, and chairs. I have been using Pledge ever since. I grew up seeing my dad use it for our tables, painting frames, and chairs. I didn't understand his fascination with (anything wood and) wood polish products then, but now I do. It doesn’t hurt to have that added shine. 


Pledge Enhancing Polish & BioGlow All Purpose Cleaner

You can also use this for granite, marble, or stainless steel surfaces.


BioGlow


I recently discovered this when I was getting an extension cord from Handyman. I tried it out, and I liked it. This product does not leave any residue and is non-sticky. Compared to the brand I used before, this one has a friendlier formulation (safer to use). It comes in a spray bottle.


BioGlow is safe to use on all surfaces and has no strong smell. This one is also non-corrosive. I use this for cleaning our dining table, kitchen counter, and door knobs. 



Magefy Magnetic Eyelashes 


Long lashes enhance the natural beauty of your eyes or add a dramatic look. If you don't want to get eyelash extensions but want that elevated look, the next best option is to use falsies. 


There are plenty of variants you can find out there, like the one from Magefy (they specialize in false lashes). It doesn't require glue, it's easy to apply, and easy to take off.

I find magnetic lashes more suitable for me because I can put them on or take them anytime I want.


How to Use:

1. Wipe your eyes clean, apply the magnetic eyeliner, then let it dry for 10-15 seconds.

2. Take the eyelash from the tray and then gently lay it over the eyeliner. Do the same thing with your other eye.

L’Oreal Infallible Foundation (Powder & Liquid)


Among the foundation brands I have tried, only Maybelline, Shiseido, and Ever Bilena have not irritated my skin. 


L'Oreal Paris Infallible Liquid and Powder Foundation

I’m adding this one to the list. While it’s not as light as Shiseido’s Synchro Skin Foundation or as reasonably priced as Maybelline’s Fit Me (which I love), this Infallible variant from L’Oreal has good coverage and is true to its claims. The liquid foundation comes in a tube that is easy to carry around, and the powder foundation comes in the typical compact case.

I used it for my friend’s wedding, and I like how there was no need for touch-ups.
