REVIEW: SANSAN CONCEALER

For me, concealer is one of the essential make-up product that every girl must have. Although foundation can do the job of concealing flaws on the face, I still opt to using concealer before setting my face with a powder. I've used a couple of brands of concealers already.Concealers from Fashion 21, Nichido, Ever Bilena and Koshize to name a few. All did a great job on concealing my blemishes and dark circles.
The first time I heard about HBC SanSan's concealer was from Maricarljanah of Youtbe. She raved about the product so much! I've used some of Sansan's product like their liquid liners, pressed powder foundations, and blushes. But I never tried their concealers. Anyway, after watching Janah's video, I decided to try it!

I've been using it for almost 4 or 5 months now, and I believe I can do my own review about this product.

This is how the packaging looks like. The cover is made out of hard plastic which doesn't look very cheap. I actually prefer concealers with this kind of packaging. I don't like the ones that come in lids where in I have to turn the lid to open it. Tendency is I always misplace the cover. With this one, I don't have to worry about it because it is attached with the container.

It comes in three shades- Olive being the darkest shade, Beige and Natural which doesn't look natural at all. They should have named it "pale" or "light".

I picked the shade in Natural, which is the lightest shade among the three. Before I bought it, I tried the tester first. The shade doesn't look natural to me, it's actually lighter. Why did I buy it still? I purchased it because I like how I can use it not just a concealer, but will also serve as a highlighter. I planned of using it only for my dark circles and redness around my nose. When I have my bumps on my face ( during monthly period), I use a darker shade of concealer. I use Koshize from Sophie.

Look how it instantly brightens my eyes!

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THE SANSAN CONCEALER:

*I like that it's creamy which makes it easier to blend. For me, a very important factor with concealers.

* Contains SPF 15 and enriched with Vitamins A,C,E

* Natural shade is perfect for brightening my tired-looking eyes!

* Very affordable! You get 13g of the product for only P105.

* Available at HBC outlets

WHAT I DON'T LIKE ABOUT IT?

I only have one thing I don't like about it though, because of its creamy coverage it tends to crease in the eyes. Sometimes when I wanted my face to look dewy, I don't use a setting powder which makes my under eye circles to crease ( that streaks of product you usually see when you squint your eyes).

I'm planning of buying the Beige one and try it if it can do the job of covering my zits. Or maybe even try their matte foundations? My mind is still battling if  should try it because I do have  dry skin.

Any suggestions girls?

 I would love to hear your opinion!

Have a lovely week ladies! xoxo

UPDATES!

Hellooooo lovlies!



I wish I could blog everyday for you girls, but because of my busy schedule I can't find time to do so.

What keeps me busy??  Medical Transcription!

 Last August, a friend of mine called me and invited me to join the orientation for medical transcription. At first, I was hesitant to attend the program. For some reasons, I felt that I think wouldn't enjoy that kind of 'world'. And during that time, I was sooooo confused with my plans in life! I was torn between volunteering as a nurse or just  grab whatever opportunity that comes my way.

So, what is medical transcription?

(www.wikipedia.com)

An individual who performs medical transcription is known as a medical transcriptionist or an MT. An MT is also known as a Medical Language Specialist or MLS. The equipment the MT uses is called a medical transcriber. The individual who performs medical transcription should always be called a "medical transcriptionist." A medical transcriptionist is the person responsible for converting the patient's medical records into text from recorded dictation. The term transcriber describes the electronic equipment used in performing medical transcription, e.g., a cassette player with foot controls operated by the MT for report playback and transcription.

Pertinent up-to-date, confidential patient information is converted to a written text document by a medical transcriptionist (MT). This text may be printed and placed in the patient's record and/or retained only in its electronic format. Medical transcription can be performed by MTs who are employees in a hospital or who work at home as telecommuting employees for the hospital; by MTs working as telecommuting employees or independent contractors for an outsourced service that performs the work offsite under contract to a hospital, clinic, physician group or other healthcare provider; or by MTs working directly for the providers of service (doctors or their group practices) either onsite or telecommuting as employees or contractors.

So.. I decided to enroll at TESDA for the free 2-month training! Yes, for free. Number 1 reason why I decided to grab it. What I don't like about it is the schedule of classes. We had to attend classes and laboratory exercises everyday! Even during weekends! I planned about backing out before but never did... Daily allowances popped in my mind. Haha! So far, I'm enjoying myself. I met new set of friends!

Aside from that having new friends, I get to practice my typing and listening skills. Transcribing was easier for me since I'm from a medical field. Some of my friends find it hard to decipher some of the medical terms dictated from the audio. I gladly help them with some terms. It's fun yet stressful. Especially because we deal with different accents of physicians. Verrrrrrry stressful I tell you! T T

I'm excited for our culminating activity on the last week of October! It's like our "graduation ceremony"! I will definitely be posting pictures. :)))

That's it for my quick updates! Ciao bellas! xoxo
