January Favorites 2018 by ayacheei
Hey guys! I'm really trying my hardest to stay true to my resolutions this 2018, so I planned on making a regular monthly favorites and share with you guys, all the things I've been obsessing over. Fingers crossed I get to keep up with it this year! So yeah, I don't want to ramble on too much, let's get into my favorites for the month of January.
#TheFoundationSubstitute Belo SunExpert Tinted Sunscreen
01
BELO SUNEXPERY TINTED SUNSCREEN
First on the list is the Belo SUnExpert Tinted Sunscreen. This is one of the first tinted sunscreen here in the Philippines that offers sun protection with coverage. It is rated SPF50 and PA+++ for broad spectrum protection against harmful UV rays. It also has cell protect defends against premature aging.
The Belo SunExpert Tinted Sunscreen is currently available in one shade, which is medium to deep. At first, I thought the shade would be too dark for my skin tone. But with its Tone Adapt Technology, it matches my skin after blending.

Belo SunExpert Tinted Sunscreen Review
WHAT I LOVE:
It is very easy to apply and blend (no applicator needed).
It is perfect for girls who are always on-the-go, like me. I love using it as the base of my everyday makeup look.
It has a decent coverage. The tinted sunscreen even out my skin tone. And although it did not completely cover my pimples and dark spots, I ain't complaining. It is only a tinted sunscreen after all.
It did not make my skin feel sticky or greasy whatsoever.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
It does not last long on the face. I recommend you to bring this product and reapply it every two to three hours.

You can purchase the Belo Tinted Sunscreen at any drugstores and leading department stores nationwide for P449.75 (50 mL). You can also get a free sample at Sample Room PH (but it is currently unavailable on their website due to high demand since everyone has been raving over this product). You can also score the BELO TINTED SUNSCREEN FOR FREE when you join my giveaway (See previous post for mechanics).


Laneige PH Water Sleeping Mask
02
LANEIGE WATER SLEEPING MASK
Another beauty item that made it on my list is the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask. My skin was not in the best condition ever since I used products from the dermatologist weeks ago. The products I got from them actually works, but the healing process of my skin was not the fastest. But with the aid of this sleeping mask, my skin had gotten better.
The Laneige Water Sleeping Mask purifies the skin overnight, keeping it in optimum condition with its SLEEP-TOX technology. It also helps the skin retain moisture throughout the night.
Laneige Water Sleeping Mask Review
WHAT I LOVE:
It has a spatula, unlike other masks I had before.
It provides intensive hydration on my skin, while also softening and brightening it.
Breathing in the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask's scent helps me relax to sleep.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
Honestly, I could not think of any.

You can purchase the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask on different Korean online stores like Althea Korea, for P980 (70 mL).


Jo Malone London Mimosa and Cardamom Scented Candle : luxury candle
03
JO MALONE LONDON MIMOSA AND CARDAMOM SCENTED CANDLE BOUGIE PERFUME
I am not used to loving scented candles, but this one is definitely a game changer! The Jo Malone London Mimosa and Cardamom Scented Candle is a mist of honeyed, golden mimosa float above the spiciness of freshly crushed cardamom — it is a creamy tonka and smooth sandalwood woven under powdery heliotrope and Damask rose picked at dawn. It uplifts, winds down or simply adds an air of luxury.
Jo Malone London Mimosa and Cardamom Scented Candle Review
WHAT I LOVE:
The scent is so strong. Everyone can tell you're wearing the scent of this candle.
Its scent is also relaxing and has an ethereal feel to it, perfect for a spa day at home.
It lasts so long — it has a candle burn time of 45 hours.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
It is very pricey.

You can purchase any Jo Malone products at Sephora, or on their official site at Jo Malone. The Jo Malone London Mimosa and Cardamom Scented Candle costs $65 (200 g).


Loreal X Balmain Color Riche Lipstick in the shade 246 Confession (peach lipstick shade)
04
L'OREAL PARIS X BALMAIN COLOR RICHE LIPSTICK IN THE SHADE 246 CONFESSION
I recently got this lippie and I've been obsessing over this lip shade since then. And that's a lot coming from me, since I'm not usually into this shades. The Color Riche Lipstick in the shade 246 Confession is part of the limited edition collection of 12 tailor-made couture lipsticks, in collaboration with Olivier Rousteing of Balmain. The lip colours are designed to embody three femininities: Safari, Rock and Couture, 246 Confession belonging to the latter.
The Color Riche Lipstick in the shade 246 Confession is a peach lipstick infused with pure pigments and camellia oil to provide the richest of colour and moisturizing, matte finish.

WHAT I LOVE:
The lipstick is very pigmented. You only need a swatch of it, in order to get its full color.
It glides on easily during application.
It is very moisturizing on the lips.
It has that classic lipstick scent, which I love.
The packaging is so classy and sleek.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
It is not transfer-proof / waterproof.
It does not have a matte finish like its claim said (but then again, satin finish lippies are making a comeback, so..:))).

You can purchase any L'Oreal Paris x Balmain Color Riche Lipstick on leading department stores nationwide for P499 (4.2 g).


GG Marmont metalessé mini bag - inspired bag
05
SM PARISIAN CROSSBODY BAG IN LEATHER AND CHEVRON DESIGN
Crossbody bag, Beret and Pointed Mules Outfit Idea
I am more of a small bag type of gal, so whenever I'm out during the weekends, I prefer using crossbody bags as my carry-on. One of my fashion favorites that made it on the list this month is this SM Parisian Crossbody Bag in Leather and Chevron Design. I love using this bag because it is very simple and chic, perfect to pair with any outfit I have. And it kinda reminds me of the GG Marmont metalessé mini bag, don't you think?

06
SM SOLEMATE POINTED MULES
Plaid Blazer and Mules Outfit Idea
The last item that made on my January Favorites list, are these fashion must-have shoes, le mules! Mules are backless shoes. These are basically slippers, but with style and class. I am in love with this specific type of shoe because all you need to do is slip it on and bam! You look classy af. One of the favorite mules I have, is this sleek pointed toe one with a suede material, that I got from the SM Department Store. It also has that buckle design, which I find so cute.
