Thoughts on Pond's BB Cream

Thoughts on Pond's BB Cream

I wasn't actually going to buy Pond's because of a certain reaction it does to my skin but then again I was I think a little bit attracted to the packaging. Not the nicest packaging but somehow head-turning. And that's applicable only if you like pink. 


Having finished my other BB product, I'm not expecting much from this and what it promises. Right now I'm just holding on to the 'fact' that it has SPF. Which is always a good thing.


It promises to whiten the skin and stuff and luckily I'm already happy with my color but yeah. Hopefully it brightens up my dark spots because they're just so in love with me that they don't want to go away. Annoying much.


The formula is thick and it's fairly easy to apply and also easy to blend. I also like its scent. Like, it smells like your typical Pond's product but at this point, I'm just happy that it's not offensive like the BB Stick from Maybelline.


The coverage is so light though. I literally need two squeezes to see a difference on the coverage. As for the application on my face, I can see that it somehow evens out my skin tone which is like the thing I need most due to some acne discoloration and stuff but it does't really give a flawless finish or something but it's definitely better than having nothing on at all. Maybe with 3 to 4 layers, you'll be able to achieve a flawless canvass but I don't think I'd recommend that. Go with a foundation instead if your desire is to like cover up. If you're a fan of the saying "go big or go home" this product might not be for you.

Simple Joys
Not so long ago, my cousin turned 6. It was such a simple celebration but it was perfect. Sometimes simple things matter most. We went to Cavite to celebrate and below are the pictures that we took. :))


This is the oh so cute cake that my mom got for my cousin. As you can see from the picture above though, they kind of messed up with my cousin's name and placed "YASHI" instead and then my cousin pointed out their mistake and they kind of remedied nalang. Oh well. It's alright.


The pictures (above and below this text) are kind of a fail because I made an effort in like somehow squatting and then no one went behind me for us to fit in the frame. It's just that my grandma is literally behind the tall peeps so yeah. If only! If only!


I wish my little cousin all the happiness in life. I mean, he's probably too young to be problematic and all that. I think he's all good as for now but you know, it's actually tough to predict everything. Just rambling yeah? Yeah.


I like celebration like this. Like, even though it was such a simple celebration, we were together and happy. I still feel bad for those who weren't able to come and celebrate with us. Next time! :)

Dream Oh Dream

I had a weird dream again. And I don't know but I really think I should make a legit segment about my dreams. Because you know, they wouldn't stick to my memory for very long and as always, gonna drop it to my Pensieve. I'm a wizard like that. Anyways.

I dreamt of something Halloween-y. It's like I'm riding a jeepney with 4 other girls and then  4 guys tried to stop the Jeepney and stuff and then the driver didn't stop so I was like, I'm safe! And then we entered a narrow road and the the Jeepney stopped there and then alas! The four guys rode the jeepney. Not declaring anything harmful but for some reason, they got all of our bags. It's like someone on the top is getting all our gadgets and money and stuff and then they would return it secretly and yeah that's what happened well and then! I was able to stop them from digging into my bag by like pushing Timothy Delaghetto and getting my bag from him. And I was like, why the heck do I always dream of Timothy Delaghetto? 

Okay so I was saved. I told my mom about it, right? And then this guy kept on following us and I don't know what occurred to my brain because I transferred my phone to my bra. Which from my point of view was quite obvious because I don't have boobs okay? LOL.

The guy then called an army. And they were all babies. I was like, what's happening here? My sister Mika which I think was 7 in that dream came to the rescue and she was like throwing the babies away and even grilling them which ticked most babies away and yeah I think we were saved by that situation. I was actually just cheering her all through out but I don't recommend you do that in real life though. That's all about the dream. So random but I was afraid. Normally I could figure out whether I'm dreaming or not but this one is scary. Well Tim Delaghetto kind of gave it away but that one scary dude that called his army is what confused me. Anyways.
