Let me start by stating that I'm just a few days away from hitting the third trimester, and oh boy, you can bet all the extra belly baggage is causing so much tension on my lower extremities. Good thing, my Aeroblu slippers are doing a fantastic job in cushioning my occasionally-swollen feet. As a matter of fact, I am rocking another pair right now and might even get another one because I might size up soon. Yes, pregnant women really grow their feet.
A good night's sleep is one of the key ingredients to help you achieve that glowing complexion you’ve always dreamed. I mean, we all love the feeling and appearance of youthful skin, don’t we?

There are a lot of things that I did not know about being pregnant. I have read all the symptoms and saw them being exaggerated in movies, but little did I know that they can really take a toll on one's body.
I am already on my second trimester which most experts say is the easiest phase of pregnancy. I must say that is absolutely true. I have enough energy now to travel and do a little bit of shopping for my little bundle of joy every now and then. To aid me in being in my comfortable state but without sacrificing style and fashion, I have been wearing my Aeroblu slippers most of the time.
So I finally got my hands on the most talked about foundation this year. Unfortunately for Tarte, not for good reasons. The lack of shades for women of color definitely spun a lot of heat for this foundation. Tarte issued an apology and added darker shades to the line afterwards. Hopefully, other brands will learn from this slip.
Truth be told, I don't need another foundation but I adore my Tarte Shape Tape concealer so much that nonetheless, I decided to give this foundation a swing. I live in a humid and tropical country, so I opted for the Matte formula. Choosing the shade online can quite end up in a hiccup so I just settled with Light Sand which is also the shade that I wear with the Tarte Shape Tape concealer.

I know that I've been slacking from blogging these past few years. But if there is one thing that you all should know, my love for beauty did not fade through the years. I may not be posting my beauty hauls as much as before, but believe me, my make up addict alter ego still lingers beneath my soul.
Now to compensate for my semi-absence on the beauty blogging world, I made a list of my current beauty favorites. Most of them are new discoveries whilst others are just old time faves. Since I just posted my skin care routine HERE, I'll just concentrate on make up and a few bits and bobs.
