The Seven Deadly Sins of Beauty Tag

I've seen this particular tag being posted around a number of blogs quite recently and I decided to hop on board as well. Yes, I just tagged myself!

It'll be another nice break from product reviews anyway, right?

1. GREED - What is your most expensive beauty item?

I'd have to say my Philips Satinelle Epilator HP6512. This counts as a beauty item, doesn't it? I shelled out PHP5,000 (almost $120) for this baby because I got sick of the pains (literally) and frustration of shaving and waxing. I'm glad I decided to splurge on it though because I love it!

2. WRATH - What beauty item do you have a love/hate relationship with?

Concealer. Though a necessary product for most women, including me, I struggle with concealer a lot of the time and so far, I haven't yet found one that I've been very happy with. It's either too drying, cakes too easily, sinks into the fine lines under my eyes, or simply doesn't provide enough coverage. I've tried all kinds too, from sticks, to creams, to liquids. Finding the perfect shade is also an added nightmare for me! However, despite my love/hate relationship with it, it's still something I need on a daily basis so I do my best to work around the problems I face with it.

This or That Tag

Christine from Frozen Blossoms tagged me for this next entry of mine called "This or That" in relation to of course, beauty products! It seems really fun and I'm excited to start it...

Blusher or Bronzer

Blushers. I find that blushers, in general, a lot more versatile to work with. You can either use a very pink or peachy shade to give you a natural looking flush or rosy glow, or you can use a darker shade as an easy and more subtle alternative to a bronzer. I'm especially a fan of cream blushers, cheek stains, or blushers with a hint of shimmer to them since my cheeks tend to be quite dry.
