Mi colección de maquillaje.

Hola, ahí! Cuando hablamos de maquillaje, muchos de nosotros tuvo su primera colección cuando fue adolescente, y ha utilizado maquillaje de nuestras madres o abuelas cuando niños.
Actualmente tenemos nuestra colección… y algunos de los productos que hemos ido adquiriendo a lo largo de los años, hasta se encuentren viejos y vencidos. La razón por la que se han vencido puede variar. El fin del maquillaje es el mismo: querer vernos mejor. Para algunos ese “vernos mejor” será sentirse mas lindos, para otros será no verse cansado y para otros estará en simplemente ocultar imperfecciones. Pero siempre el fin del maquillaje es: tener la mejor versión de nosotros mismos. Muchos de nosotros tiene maquillaje porque algún amigo o familiar venda productos por catálogo y le pidamos algunos para ayudarlo (si nos gusta algo, claro).

Mi colección actual










Estos son los productos “nuevos”: estos son los productos que reseñaré primero. Luego, poco a poco iré probando nuevos productos y así proveerles mejor información, tratando de ser lo más objetiva posible en dicha reseña. Dejaré los productos viejos de lado porque muchos no se encuentran en el mercado y creo que sería mejor focalizarme en los que sí estan. Muchos los tengo guardados como referencia de colores o texturas que me gustan o los que no me gustaron tanto, si quieren comenten si aún así quieren verlos y hago un post especial, fuera del semanal.


Ahora que conoces mi colección, me gustaría saber qué productos, fuera de mi colección que quisieras ver una reseña, haré una lista y trataré de conseguirlos, aunque paciencia.
Primero haré referencias a maquillaje de todos los días, y de bajo costo. Ten en cuenta que no todas las marcas pueden ser encontradas en Argentina ni ser importadas.

Pedido amistoso: si tienes maquillaje que no usas y no venció, puedes donarlo:
1- a un refugio.
2- alguna organización que los esterilice y luego los reparta a refugios como ser "Project Beauty Share" (de EEUU).
3- me los puedes dar a mi para que los evalúe y los que luego serán donados (y en tu nombre).

Espero que este post te haya gustado, te espero en el siguiente. Una pista: será mi primera reseña.

My makeup collection.

Hello, there! When it comes to makeup, most of us get the first makeup collection or just start buying makeup in our teens; and use our mother’s (even grandmother’s) makeup when we were kids.
Most of us have some makeup… and probably a couple of those products got old, way passed their expiration date; the main reason why some products get old and get expired may vary. One of the main reasons when we buy makeup: make us look better. Some of us will say to be more beautiful, others will say to look rested (or put together), others will say to hide imperfections… but it’ll be a better version of ourselves.
Sometimes we buy mskeup to help others: if our friend or our friend's relative or our relative sells those products you buy by catalog, we ended up buying some (but those we like), and that's also making us be better.

My current collection










These are the “new” items: these items are the ones I will talk about first and then little by little add more items to the test and provide more information, but trying to not be subjective about them. I left aside old (and expired) makeup, because most of them are not available any more, I will focus on the ones that actually are.
Many of them I still keep them as a reference only, colors or textures I liked or products I don't like much, if you want to know about them, comment down below and I make an special post.

Now that you know my makeup, I want to know what items will be interesting for you that I should review, so I will try to get them ASAP (if I have the chance).
My reviews will be focusing towards everyday makeup, drugstore makeup. Just remember that not all the brands can be found in Argentina or can be shipped, or if the brand sells in Argentina, the products might not be on sell yet or the products or color selection is limited.

A friendly request: if you have unused makeup or barely used that isn't expired yet, you can donate them:
1- to a woman's shelter or refuge.
2- to an organization that sterilize the makeup and then send them to shelters.
3- to me so I can review them and then give them to a shelter (on your behalf). You'll be acknowledged about it.

Hope you enjoyed this post, see you in the next one. A hint: will be my 1st review.

Makeup Brands

Hi, friends. Today I will post about the different brands you might found around the globe. The brand will be separated as drugstore, high end and luxury.

How do I decide which brand is under "drugstore", "high end" or "luxury" category? 
There are brands that are more expensive than others, specifically those by name or origin or packaging. If almost all the foundations (and other products) that a brand offers in different lines are less than $20 dollars I'll be taking it for a "Drugstore" makeup, if it's from $20 dollars and less than $50 they will be "High End", and above $50 the brands will be considered as "Luxury". (According to USA websites).
There are some brands that can be only found online or through Amazon or eBay. And also, there brands that offer only limited options of makeup (e.g.: lips and eyeshadows only) and some extend their business into skin care as well.
Another brands con only be found as a "By catalogue" brand, most of them will be considered "Drugstore".
I will attach their websites so you can know them in depth (if possible).

Brands that are Skin Care (and only have a couple of "Makeup" related items, such as bb creams) and Nail Polish brands won't be considered in this post. They will have a post on their own, eventually.
Tell me your experiences with any brand, either good or bad (please don't skip details, something I like in any story), although if you had an issue with an specific product I'd like to know your age range at the time of the issue, you skin type and skin tone (undertone if needed).
Remember even if we have the "same" kind of skin, our skin will be different and products may apply different too; the techniques used is also important as so the individuality of our face.

Hope you enjoyed it. See you on the next post!

*Can be found in Argentina, but the products that the brand offers are limited from their permanent collection.
