Bath and Body Works' On SALE! What Did You Get?
Bath and Body Works is one of those amazing companies that I wish would cater to the PH market. Unfortunately, we don’t have B&BW here in the tropics.

I thought nothing of it… Continue reading

Review: Maybelline Color Show Lipstick

I wish I could say I have tons of MAC or YSL lipsticks. But I don’t. I’m completely okay with el cheapo drugstore lippies. Hey, you’re talking to the same girl who became an Avon lady because girlfriend wants access to 25% members-only discount. Yep, I actually went that road.

Each year, I take my little brother to the city for a little sight-seeing. The boy is based here in our small town so a change of scenery is always exciting to him. We only had five days to stick to our itinerary (which includes going to an art museum and watching PBA courtside). Continue reading

Redecorating: What's Keeping Me Busy
Remember when I started redecorating my room and developed a small home office too? Something that I’ve been working on the past few weeks, I started re-decorating the living room.
