Hi guys!! I finally have a photo for the Neutrogena campaign. My younger brother was my photographer. I had to borrow BF's DSLR for this. I must get a new SLR camera asap!!! We took like 300 something shots and I only chose this one.. haha I am not a model that is why I had a hard a time posing (either my arms or my bilbil steals the spotlight !grrr!!) . I am wearing an H and M one sided dress. I swear it looks so pretty on the hanger but I when I wore it, never mind. HAHA
Moving on to the makeup, I had smokey eyes here!! Believe it! I had grayish purple shadows packed on my lids but when I look straight into the camera, they just disappeared! Good thing, my hbc falsies rescued the look. It made my eyes pop.
Anyways, here are the products I used:
ELF mineral face primer MAC studiofix liquid in NC35 Fanny Serrano 2 way foundation in Chino ELF matte bronzer
Etude House Face corset in No. 1 SAN SAN peach blush ELF 32 pc. warm palette KKCENTERHK 40 pc. shimmer palette HBC falsies Nichido Mineral Kohl Liner in ONYX ELF eye pencil in coffee Avon Simply Pretty eyebrow cake in brown Yanquina Volumizer Mascara Nichido eyelash adhesive (this costs 60 pesos only and it is way better than the aido putti!!!) Careline lipgloss in 103 |
That's it, I will be announcing the winner of the month tomorrow.. I am thinking if I will be giving out a reader of the month giveaway this month since I will be giving out a secret prize to two lucky readers each week for the coming weeks to come.. :D What do you think? I want to give a shoutout to the best dad in the world, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAPA!! I SUPER DUPER LOVE YOU!!

Hi everyone!Years ago, minerals was biggest thing in the makeup industry. Every beauty junkie I knew of owns at least one mineral makeup in her stash. Now, everyone is into this bb cream craze. My friends who are not so into makeup, are asking me what BB creams are nice. They heard that it is different from the normal liquid foundation or tinted moisturizer in the market. Most BB creams promises a lot of skin benefits from UV protection to whitening effects. Neutrogena now joins the bandwagon. Knowing the quality of skin care products that Neutrogena products makes,I am so excited to try their BB cream. The Neutrogena BB cream is their final addition to their Fine Fairness Range. I am very honored to be a part of this event which happened at Chef Jessie, Rockwell Club yesterday. It was a very informative lunch with Neutrogena and Dra. Frez. I will be sharing more about their BB cream in the coming weeks. The best part is -- my readers will be a part of it! I am dead sure you will enjoy it too.. :D More information about this soon. |

The bloggers who attended the event. I was actually expecting a lot more people but Nico told us that due to their schedule, they could not come.
Julia, Kira, Me, Phoebe, Say and the ever so cute, Helga. |
|
I will not miss this chance to take a photo of Phoebe with me. I am an avid reader of her blog like forever! |
|
Helga's hair was the bomb!! :D love it. |
Guess who was my seatmate for that event?
|
I attempted to curl my hair but it did not turned out the way I wanted because I lacked time and I forgot to apply a face primer by the end of the day my face look streaky and uneven!!
Say!!!! I have seen her makeup skills evolved in her videos.
I told her "tabi tayo!!" wahaha I was really excited to talk to her. I thought she was suplada or snob because the first time I met her was in a dinner hosted by Neutrogena too. She gave me than sweet shy smile before. The moment we sat on the table, our chika was never ending! You thought our bonding time ended after the lunch event was through? NO way Jose!! We strolled at the Powerplant Mall and drank milk tea at Happy Lemon. (She loves strolling around the mall alone, and I love doing that too. WHy? because nobody wants to come with me and spend half a day looking at makeup, clothes and whatever fancy my eyes!!) We spent talking about a lot of things for almost four hour or more!! From makeup to life. I was really blown away with her attitude. She radiates this positive energy and she is really pretty. I asked her about the negative comments being thrown at her in her videos. I heard the best answer from a 20 yr. old lady! She is very driven, positive and family oriented. I cannot wait to spend another time with her soon. :D |

Say, did you get a nose job?? haha Her nose was very genuine! I am so jealous!hmpf! :D

Hi everyone!! Have you seen Zooey in her latest tv series, New Girl? Are loving those big bouncy curls? Well, I am. A lot!!! I wanted to have bangs because of her but I am afraid I might get rashes and pimples on my forehead and nose bridge since my skin gets easily irritated. I want to have curls like hers but I am not really good in using iron curlers at all. I have the Conair 1 and half inch barrel which I do not even know how to use. My hair looks a mess when I use it. Hence, more practice pa noh? I am really amazed with people who can curl their hair using a flat iron. I have tried that before but my hair won't cooperate. I end up ironing it straight instead!! Hmpf!
So if you are like me who sucks at curling their hair with these electronic tools, here is a not-so-new trick that I want to share with you. This is very easy and all you need: |
|
Hair elastics Do not attempt to use rubber bands on your hair because they will surely be knotted like crazy.
First, make sure your hair is damp with water. I applied two drops of shine serum (only two drops because your hair might get oily). Then you lather your favorite hair mousse or setting lotion on your damp hair. |
|
Section your hair. The bigger the sections the bigger the curls and the smaller the section the smaller your curls are. I parted my hair into 5 sections since my hair is really thick. Start twisting your hair and create tiny buns like this: |
|
Then let your hair dry. I had mine dried overnight. Yep, I slept with those tiny buns that is why I use hair elastics and not pins so as not to pierce my scalp. I sprayed a bit more water on those small buns. |
|
Then, the next morning I looked at myself in bewilderment! Everyone in my house was laughing at me. |
|
Slowly remove the elastics. Look at those big curls, baby! Apply 2 drops of hair serum again and run your fingers through hair. This will help loosen the curls. |
|
Wait for a few minutes and the curls will loosen by itself. |
|
It turned to this.. :D Yeavah!! Zooey Deschanel kindly move over! haha Apply your hair spray if you like but I did not sprayed on my curls since I want them bouncy and flirty. |
The curls lasted a very long time on about half day. At the end of the day, you will have waves which is looks more natural. My hair does not usually cooperate when styled and I am very impressed with this method.
Godbless everyone.
Hope you like this quick hair tutorial.. :D
