After almost six years, I’m still reaching for Maybelline Fit Me. Here’s my honest take on the updated Fit Me 24HR Powder Foundation with SPF 44 PA+++ and why this longtime favorite still has a place in my makeup bag.

“Does this actually work for me?” 😂

Maybelline Fit Me

Yes, six years. At this point, I think we can officially call it a long-term relationship. 😂

Wait… Isn't the Packaging Different?

This was actually the first thing I noticed when I picked it up. The Fit Me powder I remember buying around three years ago had that gold-colored packaging. So when I saw this one, I had a little moment of:

“Wait… Did they change it?” 😂

Why This Powder Still Works for Me

My “I Don't Have Time for This” Makeup

Matte Without Making It Complicated

And Yes, There's SPF 44 PA+++

What I Like About Maybelline Fit Me

✔ Easy to apply

Perfect for those days when I don't have the luxury of spending forever in front of the mirror.

✔ Matte finish

Works well when I want my complexion to look less shiny and more polished.

✔ Oil control

Especially useful in our warm and humid weather.

✔ Buildable coverage

I can keep things light or add more coverage where I feel I need it.

✔ SPF 44 PA+++

A welcome bonus in an everyday makeup product.

✔ Compact and convenient

Easy to keep in my makeup pouch for quick touch-ups.

✔ Affordable and accessible

One of the reasons I continue to love Maybelline. I don't have to treat every makeup purchase like a major financial decision. 😂 I bought this at Robinsons at P549.

✔ I already know it works for me.

Six Years Later… I'm Still Buying It

This is probably my favorite part of this review. In a beauty world where we're constantly being told that we need the next big thing, there's something comforting about returning to an old favorite. It isn't some exciting new discovery for me.

It's the familiar one.

The one I've used for years.

The one I know how to apply.

The one I can grab when I'm rushing out the door.

The one that doesn't require me to wonder whether my skin is going to have a completely different opinion tomorrow. 😂

And maybe that's something I've learned as I've gotten older. Not everything has to be new to be good. Sometimes, the products that stay with us are the ones that simply fit our lifestyle.

My Take as a 50ish Mom

Would I recommend Fit Me to every woman?

I think makeup is very personal. What works beautifully for me may not necessarily work the same way for someone else, especially because we all have different skin types, preferences and coverage needs. But for my everyday makeup routine, Fit Me remains one of those dependable products I happily keep around.

I'm a mom.

I'm busy.

I'm 50ish.

I don't always have the time to create a perfectly sculpted, Instagram-ready complexion. Sometimes I just want to look alive, fresh and presentable before heading out the door. 😂 And if a compact powder can help me achieve that in a few minutes? Girl, I'm keeping it.

So yes, after almost six years, I've bought Maybelline Fit Me again. The packaging may have changed. The formula may have evolved. But my appreciation for this little makeup staple? Still very much here.

And apparently, my Maybelline collection isn't going anywhere either. Because let's face it… A 50ish mom can still have a little makeup obsession. 💄😂 And I'm perfectly okay with that. 😍

When I'm just a little girl, I always begged to borrow my mom's lipstick. I mean, as a kid, I loved the idea of putting makeup on my face. For me, it was daring, bolder and more sophisticated. And that really motivates me, learning to put make up. That's why I join a group of makeup hobbyist and love to revisit that enthusiasm!

As far as makeup's concerned,  many of us only wear it because it's the norm, especially if you're working in an office, you socialized, meeting different kinds of people, that is to make a good impression with clients — to look presentable. We don't want to step outside into the world with barefaced, and someone will look at you and said,  "lumabas ka pa", you really leave the house looking like that?! But, honestly, as a mom now, I'm tired of putting makeup.

I find it hassle, especially if you follow the basic makeup procedures, putting on: the PRIMER, CONCEALER, and FOUNDATION. Annoying, right? Who wants to put makeup if you are in a hurry, like you have to attend first the basic needs of your family and work.

That's why, I accentuate my feature without hiding behind the mask of makeup. I am ok with a blush-on and a lipstick going outside. But, hey, wait! I've discovered something that will help us busy mom on how to drop the monotony of makeup.

It's BARELY THERE, as if you're not wearing anything on your face.

I really have the hardest time in putting false lashes, that's one of my irksome shame in makeup. I've done lash extensions and lash lifts, but as for the false lash strips, my skill level is just there. I'm not a beauty guru, but I love putting makeup on my face, for me, it's a satisfaction especially if you put false lashes perfectly!

DISCLAIMER: This is not a paid or sponsored post, this is based on my personal use of the product. 

My usual routine in putting lashes and over the years I've tried it, I failed! Especially when you apply the lash glue, it's a complete mess.

I'm so happy that POLLY LASHES introduce ADHESIVE PEN LINER in the market. And as a Beauty Product Reviewer Blogger,  I just can't settle for janky-looking falsies. I love to look for natural, dramatic lashes, but extensions are tedious and look expensive. Something that you are living in a luxury lash lifestyle, but budget-friendly.

I bought the product for P499 only. FREE Shipping Fee.

ACTUAL PRICE: ₱899+

💜 1 SET/KIT

✅ 3 Lashes (reusable up to 20x each pair)

✅ 1 Tweezer

✅ 1 Adhesive Eyeliner

As soon as my product delivered, I used it immediately. Honestly,  I'm curious because I read so many product reviews regarding Polly Lashes and all are positive reviews.

So, here's my review for Polly Lashes.

Full Lashes

Wearing fake lashes is like a love/hate relationship and that was before. Now, I really have the hardest time because when you start wearing it and you know how to do it alone, you start to look naked without them — like your eyes without mascara, or your ears without earrings. False eyelashes are just so much fun, and thanks to POLLY LASHES they pull the entire package, the good pair of lashes (that depends on your mood) and the best adhesive pen liner that helps your eyes look bigger, seductive and picture perfect.
