Summer Bummer
Just putting it out there, I hate summer in the Philippines. I dread it every year. This year was especially sucky because 1) my Palawan trip with the boyf was cancelled until further notice and 2) I’ve developed heat rash! Look! Most people love summer and being a summer baby, I know I should… Continue reading

Five Minutes
My sister was in a hurry to eat out so I literally only had less than five minutes to fix myself. Used a Loreal BB cream, patted a concealer and then my trusty The Body Shop eyeshadow cubes (light pink and reddish-purple) finished it off with Ben Nye powder then mascara and eyeliner. Can I… Continue reading

Pretty sure it’ll take six to eight weeks before… Continue reading

Eye of The Tiger
My sister played with my Coastal Scents palette and here’s the final look. Very dramatic, no? I especially love the catseye liner and wish I could duplicate this look by myself, hihihihihi! Also, try the MAC Studio Tech foundie. Lawrd, it blurs out pores like nothing else! That’s why my fezlak looked airbrushed. Continue reading

Finally decided to buy the Smashbox Studio Pop Ultimate palette I’ve been eyeing for weeks! Yeah, I knew I should’ve waited na lang but I can’t help it! The palette was just too gorgeous! It’s not cheap either but with the quality surpassing that of Urban Decay eyeshadows, having 45 eyeshadows in one palette plus… Continue reading

Color Me Impressed
Really starting to get into makeup, eye-makeup in particular. Unfortunately, I’m still learning how to apply ’em, hahaha! I had my heart set on a cool Smashbox eyeshadow palette but I decided to buy me a Coastal Scents palette first for practice. Then if I improve, that’s the time I’d buy the expensive ones, teehee.… Continue reading
