I am glad and thankful that Typhoon Ruby did not hit Central Visayas directly though the Northern Cebu part is quite devastated. We will continue to pray for those who are suffering now and hopefully recovery is fast, help and support will be overflowing!!!
So today, I will be sharing to you my 3rd matte lipstick - Carmen Claire in Sky High Stiletto. My 1st ever matte lipstick was from Nyx (Soft Matte Lip Cream) in Addis Ababa and Amsterdam...
The Carmen Claire Story:
CarmenClaire is all about awesome beauty products for the non-girly
girl. Products that make you look and feel great with minimal effort, no
fancy training required. Hand-picked by yours truly, these products are
a labor of love, the kind I would gladly use on myself or recommend to
my bestest friends.
Makeup that's both quick and easy, to you don't end up late for work (again). Skin care that just plain works, for you, your wallet, Mama Earth, and all her cute critters too. And that's only the beginning.
CarmenClaire cares about you. I built this brand out of a passion for
all things beauty, and the power it can hold. I spent my childhood
running around my mom's beauty salon, and once I got older, learned how
to be a professional makeup artist from one of the world's most renowned
brands.
Hungry for more, I became a beauty blogger, all the while juggling everything life threw at me. And one day I realized I had so much more to share than tutorials, reviews, and makeovers. Thus, CarmenClaire was born. A place where real solutions for every girl's beauty problems can be found. Because I'm a girl just like you, who sometimes just can't stand the sight of her dark circles, and saves her red lipstick for the most special of occasions.

Ultra-modern and luxuriously smooth, these lipsticks are
long-lasting and pack a powerful punch in the color department. Apply, blot,
and apply again for chic matte lips, all day long...
