Here’s a little something I pre-ordered for my sister and I. For her, it’s the Urban Decay Shattered Face Case 🙂 It has everything for the eyes, the face and the lips in one nifty compact! And for moi, it’s the Urban Decay Vice 2! It’s a sexy Holiday release with 20 fabulous… Continue reading

Review: Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation

I am a long-time Maybelline lover because of their watershine lipstick range. I stuck to a single shade, which was Candy Apple Red for years on end even though Maybelline introduced different iteration of the watershine range. A little back story, I just got back here in Tarlac and since I am mostly based in… Continue reading

Review: ZA Total Hydration Dewy Moisturizer

Okay, so one of the cool finds I have with my last drugstore haul was the ZA Total Hydration Dewy Moisturizer. I got it because I was meaning to find an affordable moisturizer before I switch to a high-end face cream. The ZA Total Hydration Dewy Moisturizer is a water-based moisturizer. The formula is non-irritating and… Continue reading

Review: Snoe It's Oat-k, It's Alright Foaming Cleansing Oil

Snoe is a PH-made skin care and cosmetics brand. I’ve been a fan of Snoe after I got one of their much lauded beauty bar and the calamansi-based face mask last year. I gotta say, the brand definitely came a long way from being a barely-noticeable boutique into this really popular cosmetics and skin care brands… Continue reading

Another Day, Another Look-See

So yesterday was the date with an Amaia broker. For those who are unfamiliar, it’s an Ayala-backed condominium complex in Pasig. After the look-see with the Capri Oasis rep, I’m sorta disheartened about meeting the Amaia rep because I somehow had a feeling I won’t like the place or the neighborhood. And I am rarely… Continue reading

Searching For Space

So I had this bright idea of buying my own place after getting thoroughly pissed at my landlady. I’m not gonna go to the specifics but I learned the hard way how manipulative that old krone can be despite renting her apartment for a little over 7 years. Yes, 7 years and, from the looks… Continue reading

Yes, my love for FM has been well-documented here 🙂 The pre-ordering site allows me to participate in highly-anticipated sales from any of the US’ biggest cosmetics stores and get access on great stuff that are not sold… Continue reading
