    Kissful Lip Tint Choux

    Kissful Lip Tint Choux
    Ciao bellas! I would like to share with you a review of my recently bought lip stains from Etude House! I have searched online for affordable lip stains and I bumped across this product so I thought hey.



    Can we just discuss how girly their bag looks. Likey! Anyway I am an avid fan of Korean cosmetics and I will always believe in their power to create and manipulate beauty. Like, they're just so good at it. So I did not hesitate to buy despite it not having much reviews online. Although I did search and thought of buying some other cheap products that have mixed reviews. But I will try to get to that soon.


    Anyways they do have a lot of lip tints there but I went for the cheapest stuff because I'm broke. LOL. I spent a little over 250 pesos each. I'm really so excited to wear this on a regular basis but I don't know if I really like it. I like it because it's cheap. Let's just put it out there! 


    I bought their Kissful Tint Choux both in PINK and yeah it actually feels balmy at first but just like any other lip tints, it can be drying towards the end but not as much! I do have a dry lips sometimes but it doesn't accentuate that. So I think that's a good thing. 


    Let's just discuss this swatch a little bit, it stayed on quite a long time.


     I actually took a photo of it the next day and this is how it looked like. Mind you! I accidentally transferred the product from my hand to my bed sheet but still! As for my personal opinion though, I don't know if I'm eating the product or what but it just don't last me as long as the swatch. Maybe say, 3 hours. It's still a good number but less for what I expect for a lip tint to be. It gives off a nice color though but as for it's lasting effect, it's quite relative. Anyways! It's always nice to reapply and start over! :)

    If I could, I would.

    If I could, I would.

    I would be lying if I say that I haven't thought of this before. Because I did. Well, let's say a couple of times now. Feeding program is what I always thought of but I kind of debated and left that alone. Because what will happen after the program? I don't think a malnourished individual will be okay after a meal. Anyways, I would really love to that still. I think sharing food with the community is great.  
    But really, what is it that I can give to the Philippines? As much as love, hope, and respect sound nice, Thesis told me not to choose a study that is not achievable at a certain period of time. 

    As a Medical Technologist, I have always known the importance of health. And how it can take away someone's life faster than a snap of a finger. So I trace back when it all went wrong for most of them. The first line of defense. Immunity. And yes, as lonely as it may sound, most people disregard that. So if given a chance, I would like to give what I would like to call the "immunity kit" to the kids and the elders. Because that's when the body's immunity is at its lowest point and therefore "evil sickness" would most likely take advantage. 

    Health is wealth. If you can't take that into account, let's just say at least not being sick is way better than being sick. Because at least everyone would have a peace of mind and stuff. 

    Children nowadays are not as healthy as children before. I guess the world became dirtier and pollution got worse. Also, the food children eat now are not the type that will give them nourishment. Gone are those days when you can inhale fresh air (at least in the metro) and so children and old people really need these to supplement what's lacking (a lot) and to protect them from everyday hazards. Harsh I know. But true. 

    I'm saying this because I know how hard it is for parents to see their children sick. How they loathe us Medical Technologist for extracting blood from their children just to check what now seems to be a protocol for all sick individuals. When in fact, most of the time, it can prevented. 

    My "immunity kit" would have multivitamins, anti-bacterial soaps, and alcohol. Pretty basic. But it would really make a difference. I mean, that's what will protect someone from all of these harmful germs initially. At least.  

    Immunity. You know, our first line of defense is our skin (naks immuno/sero) and we should take that seriously. We shouldn't let the culprit coming from our skin itself.  

    Why not have a program like that, yeah? I mean, wouldn't it be nice if we're sharing the love and not the germs? So yeah I hope I would be given a chance to put this plan into action and hopefully this country would be somehow a safer place to live in. There's a much bigger picture of the problem like pollution and stuff but let's just say that we shouldn't disregard what we can do to solve the smaller ones first. How about you? What will you do to your country if you can do it? Comment below! Also, if you're a blogger, you might want to give this blog contest a go! Have a good day!! #GLOBEProjectWonderful2014

    Starting the New Year Right

    Starting the New Year Right
    Hi guys I thought I would share some pictures from our bay side walk sort of. These are pictures from January 1st before we watched Pagpag Siyam na Buhay nearby so yeah. It's just that we were early for the opening of the mall because we had to attend a mass and so yeah we decided to hang out a little bit.


    My grandma wanted a picture and here it is. It's so kind of rare of her to ask to take a picture of her so I thought this needs to be on the blog.

    lola rocks! :)
    My lola didn't want to watch Pagpag so she went home with mom after this short trip here. Good idea because we really had to commute our way home. And I think it would be a hassle for her because you know.

    Mika, I, and cousin
    my face though
    My cousin told me it would be nice if we wouldn't look at the camera and even though I thought it's none sense, we still took the shot. You know, let me just share about my thoughts on that. If it's a legit candid shot and it's beautiful, awesome then! If it's forced to be like a candid shot, I don't know about that. But it depends really. Sometimes I like it and do it too. Pointless thought. LOL.


    That's all I have to share guys! See yah!
