Super Stay Matte Ink Review

Image
Heroine This ad I’ve originally seen in a Cosmopolitan article online and I was like, yas! Why the hell not? Unfortunately this item is not available in Japan yet so I had to ask my sisters in the Philippines to buy this for me.  I was surprised to see the similarities of the products sold. Well, except this one of course. I got the Believer and Heroine. I was actually supposed to get the darkest but my sister was like, nope! I didn’t. I feel like she knows what’s up and I am just a millenial tita so... My Heroine look is the one above. The nude isn't mine by the way but that's what we do in my family. We recycle pictures. It's my sister's. I don't find myself wearing that TBH. I don't think I need any makeup to look more dead than I do now.  Believer So my fangirl sister have a theory that I don't really approve of. She said it's Believer because it's Justin Bieber's color. Stupid. Formula wise, it’s very sticky. Also a lie that it doesn’t trans...

New Camera! | Canon Kiss X9

Image
I guess I wasn’t as in love with my previous camera as I was in my previous previous one so I got one of its new sister. Canon Kiss X9. I like it. Not that I didn’t like my Fujifilm of course. I liked that one too but I don’t really have a control of it. Anyways, I couldn’t be happier that it’s my sister who has it now.  I didn’t order the double lense thing because I already have the heavier lense from my X7.  This is a test shot from my camera. I don’t really know if you can get anything from it since I’m not really good at it anyways.  More test pictures I guess One thing I like about thsi camera is the phone transfer feature. My Fujifilm had that feature as well. Also it’s screen flips which is always nice for selfies. The Fujifilm also had that feature. Test pictures were all taken during a Sakura Festival nearby my place. In case you’re wondering. In case that is. That’s all! 

Nakameguro @ Day Time

Image
And I’m back indeed. I was actually thought twice about this but then I remembered that this would actually be my last Spring in Japan so I guess why not? Just like predicted, most of the Sakura already fell from its tree and yeah I guess that one is another thing to look forward to. I also went there with a new camera. Will blog about it shortly after this. Man, I was so red. Can I just say? I had a very dramatic encounter before this trip and I was so relieved so it was kind of nice walking around.  So pink!  There were ducks! Soo nice. Soo nice.  Also, this day was probably the last nice day to visit the place for Sakura viewing. Like, if you’re late for this whole thing, the day I went was probably the latest you can go! the sakura fall I’m talking about  Yas. Gyu Tan is life.  Moke’s! I always go here during Sakura season. I was gonna let go of it this year but I was like, no! So despite the opening hour moved to a later time, I waited. Nothing dramatic tho...

Nakameguro @ Night 2018

Image
I went to Nakameguro because you know, about time I take a break from all the work that I’ve been doing. I went there at around 4 in the afternoon and it was my first time going there when it’s very crowded and festive. What else do I have to say? Definitely very different than just going alone. But also kind of nice because you get to enjoy the view with the rest of the crowd. You know what I mean?  I had to go to this. Because if I wait for my next off, it wouldn’t be this pretty anymore.  FLY ME TO THE MOON I just realized I said it’s different that just going alone when I still went alone only at different time. LOL. This is very clever to me. No? I had oysters! Actually thought they’d be oyster shots when I ordered them but this was very good too!  SPARKLING WINE The wine was not even good but the whole idea of it is very charming. Strawberries were very sour too! Put them both together is not any good but when you add walking around Nakameguro in the equation, quite...

Korean Night Out! Annyeong!

Image
Almost once (twice or thrice) a year, we do this. We eat-out out of the accumulated money we gather from our tip box plus whatever money our head manager give us. It was around 300 bucks.  I just got to talk to these girls and I guess they’re my faves. Well Natalie I’ve known since forever but she just turned 18 so we just recently got into talking. 

Japanese Drugstore Makeup! Again.

Image
So when I was at the counter, the pharmacist was like, it must be hard being a girl. Heck, yes! Anyways, I bought this because I guess I’m so ready for new make up and that I’m ready to welcome the orange phase. Also known as the tita phase. I’m so over with pink. Pft. Anyways, here’s what I got from the drugstore and what I think about it so far.  Being a tita comes with having to take care of your skin. I never thought in my life that I have to do this everyday to prevent future damage. Thank goodness for my Asian genes though. I seriously don’t get this. I had something similar before. I didn’t get that either. Anyways, all I can say is that this is definitely not a pore eraser. Oh maybe they should specify how big of a pore it can cover. Mine is extra!  Can’t believe that I’m the fool again. Westlife, anyone? So yeah, when I was looking for foundations, I was soo drawn into this. In fairness it actually gave a good swatch! Not so when applied to the face. I should start sw...
