Old Navy Clearance Sale Haul

April 04, 2016 0
Old Navy Clearance Sale Haul

Bought this stuff at Grandberry Mall because you know, outlet store. You know, BIG SALE. And when we got there, goodness gracious they have things on clearance.  


This is only like 500 plus. It's a high wasted short kind of thing and totally got this because I don't have one. Can't wait for summer!! 
 

Also, can I just say that this skirt is 97 yen? I got 3 skirts and you know, when it's 97 yen, you don't care about what's up. But you know, it was all pretty. 


Also, I got this very plain T-shirt to pair with the shorts or like the skirt. 


Even though not on sale, I bought this anyway because it was cute. Also, MADE IN PHILIPPINES. Ciao!

Mum Thinks I Need These

Mum Thinks I Need These






So my mom sent me stuff from the Philippines via papa so it means party time for me. These are the stuff that I got. 












This is the baggage I got. I get too keep all of it. Like, I'm actually surprised my dad agreed to carry these all. Like, I probably would hesitate to bring this. Joke!! 











I got a laptop bag which unfortunately is kind of too small for my new laptop but then again I would actually buy a smaller laptop so this is okay. Will save it for later if you may. 












I got dresses. Like, lots of it. You know, when I was actually thinking of buying stuff, my mom told me not to buy anything just yet because she told me she have loads of dress for me and heck yeah. She was absolutely right. Can I just say that this picture is no match for the actual stuff she got me. I was actually trying to reinvent my closet but the stuff I got is more of my current style so maybe not yet. Oh also, scarves. As you may have seen from the first picture. Also pimples. Don't ask. 












I got a shoes that is very much needed because my shoes already submitted its resignation letter to me and I got a book that's apparently bought by my sister for me. Thanks sissy. Only that mom told me she payed for it. It's the thought that counts yeah?












I got some LVs yo!! They're fake but then again I don't really need the authentic stuff yet. I am content with that one authentic LV bag my mom passed on to me. I don't have use for it to be honest. That's all I have to say. See yeah!

Did I Just Free Dobby?

Did I Just Free Dobby?

This is what happened. So I borrowed socks from my workmate because I forgot to bring my own and then actually, before this whole situation, we had this locker conversation about socks. One of them cannot get a pair out of the washing machine together and then the other (in whom I borrowed from) just totally lose it period. Cannot find the other at all. 

So yeah the next day, I borrowed socks from her and apparently, it was from GAP. I wouldn't probably spend that much for socks but then again... Okay so on with the story, it was my off the next I borrowed so I didn't check my bag right away so the day after that, I thought of washing the socks and well I CANNOT FIND THE OTHER SOCK! I was like, what is this sorcery? I usually don't get this situation a lot so I was really problematic when the situation occurred. I was like, what to do? Where to buy? I then decided to go to Machida, Tokyo but then it was closed! The luck of me! Really! 

Then I went to Hashimoto and there I was able to buy that same pair. Also, I bought a simple tee in which I kind of hesitated buying but then again, 1000-ish yen for a tee is not bad for a branded stuff. So there's that. That's all! I successfully gave the socks without losing it on my way home. See yah!

Kissful Lip Tint Choux

January 12, 2014 1
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! :)

Sassy Colors Nail Polishes

December 29, 2013 1
Sassy Colors Nail Polishes
Hi guys I just want to show you what I got from the exchange gift we had at the dinner party. I told you that it was sort of a wish list process (which I hate) but yeah that's another story. I'm nonetheless thankful for what I received. The one who got my name actually went a little overboard the said price so thanks! 


I wished for nail polishes (surprise surprise) and yeah these are my new babies. 


I just thought it would be nice to have new colors for new year and stuff just to play around and color my life! For eff's sake. Don't worry I'm not gonna put these on my lips LOL. 


I really liked the gift despite me knowing what it will be but yeah it was a nice variety of colors which I like and yeah I also liked that most of the colors (if not all) are the colors that I would have picked myself. I like the baby pink shade (left) and the salmon color (right). I just think that I like subtle colors more nowadays. By the way when they asked for the wish list, I wrote ''nail polish' right? Moments later, there was a response and basically asking what color I prefer and then I replied 'except black/white'. Okay. 


I'm really intrigued by their color change thing and I can't wait to see what the fuss is all about or if there's any. I will observe therefore next time. So that's it guys! By the way my mom kept one bottle herself. LOL. Bye!

Must Eyetem Mascara

December 11, 2013 0
Must Eyetem Mascara
Lately,  I have not been including mascara to my routine. It's just a time consuming step to add. Especially when you're already like a minute late to your schedule. Don't even talk "prepare early" with me because that's just irrelevant. LOL.


So maybe less than a month ago, my mom went to haul a good amount of products from a Korean store and she was so nice to get me a mascara to try. I don't know but it's like all of a sudden. Maybe she remembered that I want to get any of those colorful fat Maybelline mascaras so yeah. 


The moment she told me it's from Korea, I was so excited to use it because you know Koreans! Although they would probably just stack on fake eyelashes for a more convincing look. Anyways. 


The packaging doesn't look professional at all. It actually looks like something a high school girl would use. Not that it's a bad thing. I just noticed. Oh it's also cheap. As I remember, 3000 won. So it's about 150 ish php. So maybe I shouldn't really complain about how it looks. The formula is more leaning to the wetter side thus it is kind of more difficult to set. If you have enough time though, you might be able to set it down before blinking and having an instant black eye in return.



One thing about me is that I don't have impressive eyelashes. EVEN FOR A TYPICAL SOUTH EAST ASIAN. Like, I am below the table. 

curled lashes
Even if curled, you can barely seen them. I also find my lashes difficult to curl so as much as I don't want to, I kind of do the curling the wrong way and in such a way that there would be like 2 or 3 that will be detached from the roots. Sorry lashes

with the mascara on
As you may have noticed, my lashes became more noticeable which I think is a good thing. So yay! As from what I noticed, it doesn't give much length but it defo gives volume. 


So yeah it's more of easy but really messy to apply and you have to hold your position like this for a while or else the product would go up your lids. Or maybe that's just me. So that's it guys! I don't hate the product at all. I will use it actually. Because it's from mom. Take care!

Hunger Games Inspired Nails

December 02, 2013 1
Hunger Games Inspired Nails

Hello guys! I want to share a nice nail look for y'all! It's quite nice and I'm pretty proud of it. The Hunger Games theme quite failed me but anyways. 


These are all Bobbie nail polishes. Cheap cheap nail polishes. But they do what they have to do. They paint your nails anyways. Hunger Games reminds me of Red and Fire like Katniss Everdeen and that's actually the look I aimed for but since there's no RED anywhere near me, I took the closest option. Talk about improvising.


Look! It's quite nice, right? I mean, I know I usually do simple colors and nothing really dramatic but I think this one is kind of a little bit sophisticated than what I usually do at least. But anyways. 


Thinking about it though I think this is more like an Effie Trinket inspired look. LOL. I may have told you before that she's my favorite character. But nah I'll stick to my original plan of making this a Hunger Games themed nail look.


This is where the drama comes in. Poisonous berries anyone?


I missed posting nail looks for y'all and myself as well. I say expect more of this themed post every now and then because I enjoy it very much. Till then, MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR.

All IN! New Haircut?

September 08, 2013 0
All IN! New Haircut?
Hola guys! After passing the board exam, my cousin and I decided to shave our heads. Well jokingly of course but actually, deep inside, I was like, why not? My hair is not at its best condition anyway and like, it's long, given. But not pretty at all. Well it's pretty sometimes but never healthy. My cousin and I went to Cavite to visit my auntie and then out of the blue, my auntie told us that she wanted a haircut and a new hair color and so she did. She went with my cousin. And then she called me probably 30 minutes after and told me to go there and bring Yoshi (baby cousin) because he too would be having his hair cut. Okay.

BEFORE
When I arrived there, my cousin is already getting her hair done and I was like, if she's already doing it, then I think I would be doing it as well. My auntie was kind of pushy actually but then okay. She was telling me I have to get my hair done because I passed the boards and all that. But in reality, I guess she just want us to have our hair done as well so she won't be the only one. So when my tita greeted us outside the salon, with matching salon cap and all, she was like, sige na! I was like, okay pero trim lang ha and she was like, sayang naman kung trim lang! I was like, okay!

FINAL GOODBYE
So what happened is that the people in that salon was like, are you sure? "Sayang" but then I was thinking, there's nothing to be sorry about cutting my hair. Hindi naman maganda. LOL. But then in reality, it's really kind of sayang because I kept it for like quite a long time and never really allowed salon people to cut more than what probably is 3 inches of my hair all at once. So yeah. 

TA-da LOL
TINKERING
So this is my new haircut guys! Don't expect it to be always this neat though. Blower lang yan. But you know, I must grow it in the right way and since no more split ends, frizzy ends, and super fried ends na, I think it would be easier for me to grow it. Sana. So yeah. It feels kind of nice actually. My head feels lighter (no pun intended) and I think it's actually kind of nice to sport a new look now that I'm facing a new chapter in my life na. Yun langs.

I'd Like to Use a Lifeline | Camera 360 Sexy Lips

I'd Like to Use a Lifeline | Camera 360 Sexy Lips
Hola! I've told you guys about my plan of attack this August and to be honest, I feel kind of disappointed to myself. I don't know. It's just that I think I'm not trying hard enough to follow my schedule but anyways.


Unless you're Sandara, it doesn't look quite nice. Sorry. So recently, I've been seeing this type of photos and I'm not pissed or anything but I just don't understand it. I'm pretty sure they're all a fan of my best friend's orange lipstick obsession but then again it kind of looks weird for me. The first time I saw it right, I was like, okay maybe it's just that one. Forgiven, And that after a while, she posted a batch of pictures, placed in an album, with all that sort or orange lips happening. Orange lips is fine. But then when it's kind of fake looking already that even the background is kind of discolored, nah. And then after some time, I saw another friend on Facebook who posted the same thing and I was like, this is too much.

Okay then I asked my sister about it because it's quite destructing me already, she said it's a filter and the app is called Camera 360 so as a form of social experiment, I would like to show you this.
You see why it's destructing? It's because it's not only that lips that are discolored but like quite a lot of things. Now I don't know why but the filter is called SEXY LIPS because it's not only the lips that is affected and it's not actually sexy. It should be named as something like Annoying Orange or things like that. No offense to the people who like the color orange though. And no offense to the people who actually like to use this filter. I'm probably the only one confused by this but whatever. And what will you do when you're confused? Do it again!


And I still didn't like it. It made my eyes kind of orange-y and I look like a sick person here. Seriously though, I would be really scared if I would see someone with those kind of eyes you know.

You know what's more confusing? It's confusing why I'm confused by this. I mean, why do I care? I have a lot of things to memorize and understand for the board exam and here I am, explaining to you guys my observation. LOL. Anyways that's just about it. I hope you guys are having a good break or something like that. I'll see you soon again! :)

Maybelline BB Stick First Impressions

Maybelline BB Stick First Impressions

Hi guys! I feel like it's been quite a while since I bought something for my face so awhile ago, I did. Okay so what happened was I think it was last Monday, I saw this but they didn't have it in my shade. Okay basically, they only have two shades there so that's not very good because I feel like I'm in the middle but since they only have somehow the light and the dark, I chose the lighter shade. Lightest shade if you may. Ha! Better safe than sorreh. Actually, I have a problem with this color matching thing because I have a weird skin and for some reason, I can't find my match. Uuuyy kunwari sa skin lang. Hahaha


I believe the middle shade is called Natural and the darkest I think is called Radiance. The Natural sounds so appealing, yeah? Anyhows. Oh by the way the reason I haven't bought new face product until now is because my skin is like bishing so I'm really trying my best to give it a break but since this thing promises a lot of things, I think it might do it good somehow. Read what it says at the back below. 
Clear Smooth BB Stick is a multi-benefit product that combines the benefits of skincare, make-up, and sun block in a stick. It contains salicylic acid that helps clear away pores and imperfections, and mineral clay that helps control shine all day.

As you can see, that's like the color difference but then again don't be ridiculous! I didn't actually blend it or anything. I wonder why I didn't though. Let's not talk about that.

THE APPLICATION
It's kind of funny how there is an instruction at the back. I probably applied quite more than what I should but then again that's life. 

I'M TERRIBLE AT  BLENDING LOL
As far as the application goes, it's quite easy to apply but since it's not like in liquid form, be cautious because it can dry up a little and it would be harder to blend. Verdict? Mmm...I don't know how I feel about it yet but then I think it does its job. Probably not for this shade but I think it can be a full coverage BB product. As you can see from the after photo, with two layer on, the pimple scars are still quite obvious and since I got the lightest shade, I don't think I could go out with another layer of that because I would probably look like a White Lady of some sort and we don't want that to happen! Also, it's gonna consume a lot of product so what I would do is that I would probably just conceal them or something. Oh I hope that the mineral clay works because you know, I'm an oily mess! Anyway, that's my first impression. I hope it somehow helped you or nah I don't think so. LOL. Have a good day, y'all!
