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 here for 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.

Hi guys! If you rummage through blog posts, you will see that I have been a BB cream user. I was really excited that Neutrogena finally released their own version. The Neutrogena BB Cream is exclusively distributed by Watsons here in the Phils. The moment I got a sample of this BB Cream, I immediately tried it on. BF and my friend even commented how nice my skin looks.. :D This is very different from the BB creams I have tried before. This one is super light weight (emphasis on super). I tossed away my liquid foundations for a while and used this more often since Manila is so hot these days. (super!! di ba? then in the evening until morning it is super cold.. :s)
I have been using it for almost a week now.
Here is a quick introduction about the Neutrogena Fine Fairness BB Cream:
The power of two, in one product.
Corrects blemishes in an instant. Whitens skin from within. Factored in one bright formula.
The new NEUTROGENA® FINE FAIRNESS® BB Cream UV provides
instant fairness and blemish-free skin through special skintone-matching
minerals. Because NEUTROGENA® is a strong advocate of healthy beauty, this BB
Cream also contains the science of FINE FAIRNESS® to work within your skin and
provide continuous whitening from the inside out.
The FINE FAIRNESS® BB Cream UV is the final addition to
the existing FINE FAIRNESS® line.
This is now available locally. For the love month, February, this BB Cream only costs 575 pesos (its special introductory price, 20%
discount from P720).
Here is a quick swatch of the product:

Hi guys! Finally, I bought a new makeup kit. hoorah!! I made a previous makeup kit post here. I got a separate organizer for my toiletries. I felt that there is a need to buy a new makeup kit since I tend to bring a lot more makeup than before. My Philosophy Makeup Kit was just too small and everything was a mess because I just threw all that I need inside it without organizing them. I wanted a clear makeup kit with a divider. I want to instantly see the products inside. It really takes time to rummage through all my makeup till I find my eyeliner or lipstick. It was too time consuming. Have you experienced this? the time when you need to pull out your lipstick and what you get is your lip balm or mascara? Haha That is so weird, right? The first time I saw this makeup kit at SM department store, I refused to buy it since I did not like the color and print (polka dots?!?No way!). When the time came that I need to buy this, I can't find it anymore. It was always out of stock. I have been to 4 different SM branches but thankfully, I found one at SM Makati. |
Look how neat it looks?
|
It is only 199 pesos!Proudly Made in the Philippines too. :D |
|
The brand is KARA NINA (reminds me of the old series in television Anna Karen Nina.. haha). |
Here is a quick run down on what is inside:
|
Fanny Serrano Lash Curler Yanquina Volumizer Mascara (I need to get a new mascara.. Any recommendation?) Vaseline Lip Therapy in Cherry (I got tired of the scent and minty feel of Carmex.. I am planning to get the Maybelline Baby Lips soon because of your comments.. :D) Avon Simply Pretty Brow Powder (I love this!! ) ELF Brightening Eyeliner in Coffee (I use this for my brows too.. It matches my brow shade perfectly!) Nichido Lip Liner in Rosette (My HG and I cannot live without this.. I AM NOT KIDDING!) Nichido Eyeliner in ONYX Venus and Mars Lip Butter Tints in Pink Posies and Cherry Berry ( I am loving this a lot lately but it is not as moisturizing as I expected them to be because I need to apply a lipbalm first. I also change lipsticks every now and then. My lipstick and blush that I carry everyday changes depending on my mood.) Jenny Angled/Slanted Brush (Could you see the weird dent?I cut the bristles because they were too thin and flimsy for filling my brows. I cut them and I love the course edges after I cut it. ) ELF Matte Bronzer (I carry this because it can really change my look in an instant. I can slim down my big flat nose and make it more aquiline looking, trim down my chubby cheeks and I can darken my crease are too for that quick eye fix.) NYX Cream Blush in Natural |
|
I forgot to include my 150 pesos retractable brush in this picture.
Myra E Pressed Powder in Light (I love this for touch ups.) Fitness Oil Control Sheet ( I am so new to this Oil Blotting Sheets.. I just bought this because it was really cheap. Anyone knows a good one?) My Leopard mirror (so cute!!!) Fanny Serrano 2 Way Foundation in Chino (I hit the pan AGAIN!!!) Ellana Concealer in Smile LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer in Pure Beige A small tester bottle of Chanel Pink (I bring this because I always forget to bring my perfume or mist because I change bags often depending on where I will go) |
|
This is my retractable brush which I forgot to include in the pictures above. :D It is so soft and so dense. For 150 pesos, it is such a steal.
I am loving this Myra E Pressed Powder. I made a post about this before and the one I reviewed was in the shade Natural. I was debating to myself if I will get the Natural one or this Light shade. I got this light shade because I wanted to test the color if it suits me! I was utterly dismayed when I opened this. It looks so white on the pan. I told myself - Are you thinking that your Snow White's descendant? Dream on Girl.. haha When swatched, guess what?
Perfect translucent finish!! It blends nicely on my skin. |
That's it!
Godbless everyone!Have a nice weekend!
