Prime Time | Majolica Majorca Skin Lingerie Pore Cover.

Remember my post about the Lash King? I was greatly impressed by this mascara that I made a resolve to try other products from Shiseido's 'pocket-friendly' makeup line, Majolica Majorca.

And so the last time I was in the metro, I made a beeline to SM Makati and did some makeup shopping. One of the things I ended up buying was the Majolica Majorca Skin Lingerie Pore Cover for Php 695.

Majolica Majorca Skin Lingerie Pore Cover.

It's a primer/makeup base, and as per the English translation stuck at the back of the plastic box, it 'instantly smoothes concerned pores and red cheeks for a more refined complexion' 

Yay for English literature!

The product comes in a 25g squeeze tube. With a size this handy, the Skin Lingerie Pore Cover can easily fit into any makeup kit.

There's always something so elegant about Majolica Majorca's packaging.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I read somewhere that this product used to come in jars, which I'm not too fond of. I'm glad they now come in tubes, which for me, is more hygienic. It has a long, thin nozzle, and you can control the amount of the primer you use based on how hard you squeeze the tube.

Main squeeze? :)

 Oh, and plus points for this product's sun protection factor - SPF 20 PA+ to be exact.

The gold, perhaps? :)

Now here's how the product looks like.

Just a pea-sized amount...

It's tinted, yes. But it becomes translucent once you've spread it on your skin. 

... spread, spread.

The product has a silky feel, and is very easy to blend. And once it does, you get a nice, matte finish. And true to its description, the Skin Lingerie Pore Cover does a good job of concealing redness and making pores less visible.

Now what I love most about this product is how it keeps my makeup intact for more or less 10 hours in this unforgiving, makeup-melting, 30-plus-degree Philippine weather. That being said, Majolica Majorca has impressed me yet again!

What I love:

- Hygienic, tube packaging

- Travel-friendly size

- Easy to blend

- A little amount goes a long way

- Silky feel

- Matte finish

- Covers pores, conceals redness

- SPF20 PA+

- No allergies, no breakouts

- Keeps your makeup intact for a good number of hours

- Affordable

What you might not like:

- I really can't think of any, save for the fact that this product comes in one size only :)

Ending this post with an FOTD! (For comparison, you can find my bare face in this post. Haha.)

Pretty Peepers with Majolica Majorca Lash King Mascara!

When I saw the Majolica Majorca deal reincarnated in the Deal Dozen website some two or three weeks ago, I didn't have to think twice about purchasing it. I mean, where else can you get one of the best mascaras in town for almost half of its original price? Not in the malls, of course.

The MM Lash King for only Php 499! 

And besides, this was an opportunity that I missed last year. Now that the deal is back due to popular demand, I'd be a fool if I'd miss this chance again.

Majolica Majorca!

Majolica Majorca, just so you know, is a product of the Shiseido Company - the leading Japanese cosmetics producer, and the oldest cosmetics company in the world. The Lash King, one of the most popular products from the Majolica Majorca line, is a luxurious mascara that contains 5mm of super long fibers which cling to your lashes, giving your eyes added definition.

No English text found in the back, so it pays if you can read Katakana/Hiragana.

The Lash King's acrobat brush guarantees to lengthen your lashes, while giving it fullness, curl, and volume at the same time. This makes the Lash King the grand daddy of all Majolica Majorca mascaras, and perhaps even all the mascaras in the market today.

The acrobat brush + 5mm super long fibers.

This mascara is waterproof and smudge-proof, by the way, so expect it to be a little difficult to remove with just soap and water. (Comparing it with Fairy Drops Volume Burst Mascara, the Lash King comes off a bit easier, though.) You'll need a cleansing oil or a makeup remover to get the gunk out without causing your lashes to break or fall.

Its elegant packaging is a winner. :)

See how the product looks like in my peepers! :)

What I love: 

Elegant packaging.

Lengthens and volumizes the lashes.

Creamy formulation - not runny nor clumpy.

Lightweight.

Quick-drying.

Waterproof, smudge-proof, tear-proof.

Non-irritating, no allergic reactions to it.

What you might not like:

It's a bit difficult to remove, but nothing a good cleansing oil or makeup remover can handle.

Php 795 may be a price too steep for some, but this product is such a great investment. :)

Now for a quick FOTD. :)
