Review: Bifesta Makeup Remover
Since Bioderma is not available in PH (though it will be in a couple of days, I heard), there’s only a handful of micellar makeup removers available locally. One such product is the Bifesta Makeup Remover. It’s a Japanese drugstore brand that specializes in waterbased makeup removers. I am on my third bottle and so… Continue reading

Review: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Complete UV Moisture SPF 50
I love a good sunblock and for me, Neutrogena’s Ultra Sheer Dry Touch is a go-to especially when I am on the beach. But I find that the name “Ultra Sheer” is a bit misleading because this kind of sunblock is pretty thick so it’s not ideal to use under makeup especially when you live… Continue reading

Review: theBalm Mary Lou-Manizer
I really didn’t think much about highlighter because I want my face 90s matte. I dunno, I like how models from magazines looked with their dewy skin but in real life, I don’t want to look all slick and glowy. I felt that shiny looking skin doesn’t suit me at all. My sister introduced me to… Continue reading

Review: Braun SE7681 Silk-épil 7
When I was younger, I used to envy my sister and cousins because instead of dark, coarse hairs growing on their legs like mine, they have light, almost-invisible fuzz that made their legs look hairless. During my early 20s, I used to shave my legs, then I started using hair removing creams like Veet. I… Continue reading

Review: LUSH Porridge Soap
I recently picked up two new soaps by LUSH, the Porridge soap and the Honey, I Washed The Kids soap. I was terribly disappointed to discover that LUSH won’t be carrying any of their face masks other than Magnaminty. Apparently, LUSH has issues with supplying to a tropical country. Le ugh. Anyway, today I will be… Continue reading

Nordstrom Anniversary Madness: So What Did You Get?
Being halfway across the world to the US, I kept forgetting that July is Nordstrom’s Anniversary sale. Had I known about it, I would’ve tried saving more money so I can pre-order more beautiful things! As I already said a blog ago, I am interested in picking up the Smashbox Studio Pro brush set and… Continue reading

My Vanity Table Setting
Although I have been obsessing about makeup for a couple of years now, I never thought about improving my vanity setting until recently. It has been quite a ride for me and my small project took a lot of work but so far. Check out the before and after pic: … Continue reading
