I was in the toystore with my son yesterday (to give him his well-deserved reward) and while in the counter, I spotted stacks of blue Pigeon boxes near the counter. Inquiring, I found out the boxes contain  a two-way cake (yup very much like the Maybelline Two-Way Foundation which you can use either with a wet or dry sponge).

Since I am a huge fan for Pigeon baby products (I actually trust Pigeon for most of my baby’s needs), it didn’t take much to convince myself to try one. There are only two variants available (Fair Yellow and Warm Beige) in the store so I opted to try the Warm Beige.

Short of the story, I bought one and tried it as soon as I got home. And I was hugely disappointed. :-( First and foremost, I don’t like its smell (and that’s not negotiable!). It has the kind of smell that bothers me and sometimes give me headache (yup, so hand me a natural migraine relief, please). It’s the kind of smell that I could detect in some cosmetic products.  Second, it didn’t seem any effect on my skin. I mean I couldn’t see any difference with it on. Unlike the Maybelline Two-Way Foundation, it didn’t me give me the finish that I expected so I’m quite sad that I invested my Php300 on it. :-(

So there, I’m still for the Maybelline Two-Way Foundation.
