This beauty blog started because of recommendations. My friends would ask me what products they should buy for this and that. I loved doing it so much that I, well, started a beauty blog! ( the perfect excuse just to stay inside the beauty section of the mall, and just stare at those beautiful things ). I was thinking, everyone loves the weekends, specially me, as they are free to go out, play, and most importantly, SHOP! So, as a treat to my readers, I shall be writing a Friday special called Beautynomics Weekend Story. Weekend stories would include product recommendations, reader questions ( please do send them in! ), some random rants and raves, and sneak previews of what products are going to be reviewed in Beautynomics in the coming days.

To start off, I’d like to share my story for the weekend, with Bottles Half Full. These are products that I love, love, love and I use all the time that they are half-full already, and ready for repurchasing soon!

For me in the sense that I was able to explore new opportunities and gain new friends ( mineral makeup addicts aylovyow! ), for my eyes in such a way that I’ve gone out of my comfort zone and started being highly experimental with eye makeup. Foiling vibrant hues of red, bronze, plum, and even blue! And yes, it is quite a challenge to remove by the end of the day.

My usual remove-my-makeup routine is that I apply a layer of Cetaphil on my face, and wipe away with tissue, and repeat, and wash my face with facial cleansing gel afterwards. There are still remnants of eye makeup after that but the toner does its job by removing it. I must admit that there is rubbing involved , using the cotton ball because eye makeup can be quite a challenge to remove. So there, I am just about to introduce to you all the product that really, really relieved my eyes of that extra pressure : Lancome Effacil Gentle Eye Makeup Remover.
