I always love trying out new makeup products even though I am not a makeup artist and even if I still have some on my makeup box. I don't know why. #girlproblems
hahaha I found out that
Ever Bilena Cosmetics or EB Advance released a new set of products for their cosmetics line so I decided to check their counter in a local mall near my place. I cant remember the last time I bought items from them, but as I looked at their products and took a couple of swatches, I was amazed by them that I hurriedly bought for myself.
By the way, if you haven't heard of
Ever Bilena Cosmetics, it's a local cosmetics line here in the Philippines. Its actually one of the most successful and popular line of cosmetics in our country. Although they do not sell products that are top of the line, I must say that their products work fine as well. What's also good about their products is that almost all of them are budget friendly so every Filipina can enjoy their products without sacrificing their pockets.
In this blog post, I'll show you what I bought from the EB and what I think of the products. Here are some of the stuffs that I got from them:
EB Advance eye shadow in Sunset Cafe is a very good product. I wasn't expecting so much from it because of its price, but as I try it on my eyes, I am very happy and satisfied with my purchase. It is a very pigmented set of eye shadows with very beautiful earthlike and romantic colors.
Here's a swatch of each eye shadow from the kit:
With just a swatch! The pigmentation of these eye shadows is really crazy!
EB Advance Eye Shadow in Sunset Cafe
Packaging: The product is wrapped with a plastic upon purchased. Not a very durable kit, but very compact. Can be easily brought anywhere.
Price: 120php (a little over 2$)
PROs: very pigmented, budget friendly, comes in beautiful shades, long lasting (especially when used with eye primer)
CONs: all are in shimmery shade; doesn't have a shade in matte formula
The second product that I bought is definitely one of the newly released products of Ever Bilena. If I am not mistaken, they released this one late last year. Lately, I've been crazy about trying on liquid lipsticks so I didn't hesitant to give this one a try. I also didn't expect so much in this product because of its relatively low price, but just like the eye shadow kit, this product exceeded my expectation as well.

PROs: moisturizing, doesn't have a smell, budget friendly, comes in many shades, long lasting (can lasts up to 4-6 hours without any retouch)
CONs: none so far

As you can see, it looks bright,almost overwhelming in the photos, but in person, it's actually a bit darker. I am very happy and satisfied with my Ever Bilena cosmetics haul. I didn't only get products in a good price, but also in a fair quality. For that, I highly recommend my purchase.
Now for the Valentine's Day look, here's a simple tutorial I've prepared using Ever Bilena's eye shadows in Sunset Cafe for my eyes and EB Advance liquid lipstick in Pink Pearl for my lips!
