Hi guys.. This is an update for my lashes. I have been receiving a lot of messages and comments on where is my installment for this update. Honestly, I am not considering this an update since I have only applied Sophia on my lashes for less than 10 times the past weeks. I am so busy that I always forget to apply it. But take a good look on my lashes now.. Aren't they longer?? There is a big improvement especially on the length! Also, there are a lot of people noticing how long my lashes are especially when curled with mascara.. :D
I cannot and will not stop raving about this miracle serum which made my lashes longer!! People who have taken classes viawww.cosmetologyschool.net would agree with me that having longer and luscious lashes makes a huge difference in one's look. You can check out my review and updates here. I saw this great deal at cashcashpinoy. Hurry and buy yours now!

Hi everyone! I decided to do a hit list post which will feature the products that I am loving lately. I have even considered checking outa list of online cosmetology colleges to discover even more great makeup products from a cosmetology/ makeup class.
In no particular order, my fave products are: 1. Maybelline Baby Lips - Two of my readers commented on how good this product is. I have tried Carmex, Chapstick to Vaseline.. I think this one is the best. Thank you for your recommendation. It moisturizes my lips very well. The balm just don't sit on my lips like a gloss but it does a nice job of making my lips softer and more supple. I have dry lips and I have noticed that I rarely experience chapped lips now. I also love the scent. I think I got the raspberry one. This only costs 79 pesos. I will definitely repurchase.
2. Splash Hair Control Polish - I like this better than a leave on serum. This tames my tresses and baby hair without my hair looking oily. (The trick is not applying too much)
3. Sophia Eyelash Enhancing Kit - I posted an intro post for this product and a monthly update. I am very impressed with this one. A co-employee asked me last week if I my lashes are true or fake. Waahhh Nobody has ever took notice of my lashes before. Click here for more info about this product.
4. Revlon Lip Butters - I have been raving about this lip butters ever since I got them. I use it almost everyday to the office especially pink truffle which is my lips but way better shade. :D Review and Swatches here.
5. San San Rosy Blush - I expressed my profound love for the Peach blush before. I have been liking this blush because it looks similar with my ELF blush, the one in the Studioline blush/bronzer compact. The gold shimmer is not noticeable but gives my face that nice glow. Click here for review and swatches of the San San blushes.
5. Fashion 21 Loose Powder - I honestly did not like this when I bought it at first. I was even thinking of throwing it away but I just kept it inside my makeup drawer for about 2 or 3 months. Again, I was influenced by Filipina Youtube Gurus in buying this product. I find this great for touch ups but not for setting foundation or BB Cream. However, I use this to set my concealer to highlight my under eye because the shade is a bit lighter for my skin tone.
6. Saizen Face Massager - I do not actually know what you call this stuff. Is it a face massager or scrub? I saw a Youtube guru cleaning her face with a face brush (the one used in facials). Having sensitive skin, I have an inkling brushes will definitely not work for me since it will prick my skin. Then I saw this at watsons and I am using this to clean my face every other day (not everyday). I feel that my face becomes softer after using this. I never thought that cleaning one's face can be so relaxing. :D
The tiny bristles are very gentle. Just don't press this hard on your skin.
7. Marionnaud N32 Angled Brush - Fave brush for the moment. I use this for blush application and for contouring my cheeks. I think I should get a back up for this brush.
8. Neutrogena Fine Fairness Bb Cream - I am using this everyday! More about this product soon.
9. MAC Gingerly Blush - This is my go to blush as of the moment. I find the shade very versatile. I can use this with a pink, peach or red lipstick!! Also, JlovesMAC love this blush too. :D
The shade is a very warm peach blush with brownish red undertones.
10. Nichido Tru Lashes Eyelash Adhesive - I was very disappointed with Aido and I was in search for a nice lash adhesive. During one makeup gig with my sorority sister, I was amazed that she was wearing falsies since 8 am and it was still on her until I went home (around 7pm). I was surprised when she showed me a tiny bottle which is very familiar because I have been seeing it always at the Nichido Counters. I was also thrilled that it only costs 60 pesos!! This tiny bottle does a great job. It dries relatively fast(not super quick, I hope you get what I mean).
This bottle is very tiny and it is worth every penny. The only thing I hate about this is the packaging. The cap can be really hard to remove.
That's it. What are the products you are loving right now?I would love to hear from you. Godbless everyone.. :D
Hi everyone!! Let us pause for 5 mins. and stare at my fabulous lashes!!Teehee. Can you feel how giddy and happy I am as I type away this post? Sophia Eyelash Enhancing Kit is the bomb!!! Guess what? My lashes still got longer even if I am not religiously applying it. To those who have not yet read my post, here is a quick introduction about this product. Click herefor my post.
Here is a picture of the original length of my lashes.
After two months:
Here is a closer shot of my lashes. Can you see that there are parts (near the outer corner of my eye) that looks shorter than the rest of my lashes?
After two months, they grew and are almost as long as the other lashes. My lashes are now a bit longer and it became darker too. I can really see the results. I can't wait for the results after February.
Winner!!

After one month of using Sophia Lash Enhancing Kit
I noticed that my lashes became a bit more noticeable and darker. I also noticed that my lids near my lashes became brownish in color. Hopefully, it will fade after I get my desired length of lashes. There were times that my lid feels itchy after application. I am not religiously applying it nightly since I tend to forget about it. Yay.
My lower lashes became noticeable too.
Here is a before shot of my lashes:
I am excited to see a bigger difference next month. Click here for more information about Sophia Eyelash Enhancing Kit:
Introducing the Sophia Eyelash Enhancing Kit.. Yey.. I am dying to try this lash enhancing kit ever since my sorority sister told me about her latest discovery months ago. The Sophia Eyelash ENhancing Kit is being distributed by AltheaMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (owned by my beautiful sorority sister of course). These company distributes lenses for glaucoma and other eye medication treatment so when I heard that they are introducing these into the market, I was super excited. This only costs 1,600 pesos. For the record, I bought this from her. This is not a sponsored at all. This is made from all natural botanicals. I told her if this works for me as well as it worked for her, I will be a distributor. :D I went to her beautiful office yesterday and she shared with me a lot of things about the product. Her staff are also using these, and I was freaking out because their lashes are starting to lengthen (bongga super!! as in pumipilantik ang effect!). haha Here are her photos that I asked her if I can share with my readers.. of course, she said , "YES!"
This is how her lashes look like before using Sophia.
1st month after use.
This is already her second month of using Sophia. Taken January 26, 2011.
February 14, 2011.. Long and luscious lashes are to die for!!!
March 25, 2011 She told me that she used lash enhancer from Belo and even Flawless before and it did not worked for her. This is the only one that worked wonders for her lashes that is why she brought it here in the Philippines. Ok. That's it. I am sold!!haha
The kit comes with the Sophia Lash Enhancer, a complimentary eye solution so as to prevent redness or itchiness in case you'll develop adverse reactions. I will explain this further later. It also comes with a brush. She told me that when this comes out in the market they may not include the eye drops anymore.
The manual is very useful because it is very informative. All my questions were answered like who can use it, is it safe for the eyes and other stuff. This is made in India. The trademark Sophia is now being registered at the IPO and the BFAD already went to their company for inspection purposes. I can't wait for this product to be out in the market.
The bottle is small but do not get your hopes low. It could last for two months.
How to use it:
You should use it with a clean face. NO MAKEUP AND OTHER IMPURITIES. You pour one drop on the cap of the SOphia bottle and dip the brush. Using the brush provided, it is the same process like putting eyeliner on your lid but this time more closer. You could apply it repeatedly apply the solution until it is gone. You must blot out the excess to prevent unwanted hair growth on other areas.
What are the possible side effects:
Eyelid pigmentation - I asked my sis if your whole lid will turn brown, she told me only the area nearest to your eyelashes, so imagine yourself with natural looking brown liner. One good thing about this is that this side effect is reversible upon discontinuing the use of Sophia.
Hair Growth Outside the Treatment Area - That is why you have to blot out the excess.
You can also experience inflammation, eye redness and itching.
I also used it last night. My eyelid was a bit itching but not too much. I was expecting my eyes to get swolled and all the worst effects that I could imagine but nothing of that sort happened. haha
More of Sophia soon. I will be blogging about it after a month or so. I am crossing my fingers that this will work for me.
Other product shots of Sophia that she emailed me.
Sophia is available only at authorized distributors and more inquiries here is their mail: sophia_lashes@yahoo.com or Call: 584-5880 and ask for Rea What lash enhancer are you using? I remembered that Ardell and L'oreal have one. Do they work?
