A Fashion, Beauty and Shopping Blog
As a self-confessed lippie addict, it would come as no surprise when I would experiment with a variety of lip makeup from different brands. All eyes on Laura Mercier and their selection of lip glosses which I thought would be a great gift idea for friends last Christmas. Of course, I ended up getting me [...]
It’s funny how each time I would come up to the cash register at some makeup store and wait for the sales person to ring up my purchases, I’d always wonder if, in reality, it’s a waste to be putting in hard earned money on things that I won’t get to use much. Yes, I [...]
Clump. Volume. Length. Thick. Drama. Separation. Words you’ll encounter whenever the subject of mascaras is broached. Wanting a fuller lash or curled long ones, it’s either you’re naturally blessed with it or you’ve been spending time, money and effort from the wake of puberty to achieving a quarter of the illusion. Ah, the things we [...]
A renewed love for lip liners stemmed from an afternoon of frivolity — trying out CoverGirl lip makeup and hamming it up in front of the webcam — came as a surprise since I was entering a period of lull and I didn’t need the extra fuss in makeup. Heck, what makeup? But I couldn’t [...]
Countless hours spent packing, working through airport terminals, waiting to board, and, yes, the actual plane ride can get quite taxing to the point when you’d find yourself begging off from doing it even when it’s a work requisite. Oh, don’t get me wrong, I do adore traveling but what I’ve learned about myself over [...]
Though I’m still a huge fan of MAC lippies, I couldn’t resist the urge to sample ones from NARS. I’ve been hearing and reading great reviews on the brand (esp the lipsticks) so on one of my trips to Rustan’s in Alabang Town Center late last year, I decided to grab a couple of tubes. [...]
In the years leading up to this day, I’ve been through countless experimental makeup pursuits which solidify my resolve that with a certain amount of effort coupled with a significant showing of interest, someone who lacks skill will eventually learn enough of what makeup type she feels is comfortable for herself and suitable to her [...]
My sister left for Singapore this afternoon and then straight on to Australia. You would think that having done countless hello-goodbye airport scenes for a good decade or so now, we’d be numb to the whole thing. I guess, it will always be a case with family. Knowing that we’d have to cross an ocean [...]
I like things simple. Well, most of the time. I’d like it very much if I can find the best way to streamline my work and activities, including all the idiosyncratic routines than I go through everyday. Makeup and skin care have been cautiously classified under the uncommon love-hate affinity. Love what they do for [...]
As you may have noticed (esp those who regularly keeps me company here), I haven’t been blogging about beauty much. Since I’ve pretty much given up (at least temporarily) reviewing each and everything that arrives on my doorstep, I only get to write about the stuff that I buy and use. Much of what you’ve [...]
