I'm sure you've already seen the raves about the Fairydrops Candy Bar BB Cream (P1,550) from the other beauty bloggers. No question about it, this stuff is da cheese! It's a great face base for two reasons: the flawless satiny finish and color match (at least on me). It's also the first BB cream I've encountered that has no SPF whatosever.

While other BB creams focus on skincare claims and sun protection, the Fairydrops Candy Bar is all about perfecting the skin. A Japanese newscaster, who needed something that will look good on harsh studio lighting, is credited for helping formulate it. It's supposed to have micro-gold pigments and soft focus powder in the waterproof formula.

Here's what I think!

What I love about the product

• It makes my skin look fantastic. Not just good or nice, but fantastic both in person and on camera. It has light to medium coverage, which evens out my skintone well. It won't cover major blemishes or acne but it can give brighter-looking skin.
• This has no perceptible shimmer. It has a satin finish which means that it's not glowy or dewy; more like matte but with a bit of fresh lustre to it. Like real skin.

I apologize for the lateness of this announcement. I decided to pick two Commenter of the Month winners so that the next announcement comes in neatly at the end of April. The February winner gets the Cinema Secrets palette while the March winner shall get an Avon bag, Avon perfume, and Pond's skincare. 

Okay, for February we have Joana Chua and for March, Mikha! I will contact you gals shortly about how to claim your prizes. (Mikha please leave your email ad below, I'm afraid I don't have it).

And now, for the April gift! Flawless, one of the top derma and aesthetic clinics here in the country, has generously offered one session of Laser Hair Removal on the winner's preferred area (bikina, underarms, legs, or back). This is the perfect summer treat as I know most of you has plans to hit the beach.
