Like every fellow in the planet, there are also times in my life when I feel that my whole world is flipping right in front of me. It is so hard to find that middle ground where we can have enjoy that work-life balance. With demands from work, work-life balance appears to be an impossible feat, especially in today’s fast-paced lifestyle. But do not...

Like every normal human being on the planet, I also get those nasty pimples every now and then. I used to apply high end products to makes those zits go away, but ever since I discovered local products that actually work without breaking the bank, I can now indulge in having clear skin without burning cash. And one of my recent discovery to make...

Despite the fact that I just recently been to Seoul, Korea last month, I was still not able to haul as much Korean skin care and make up items as I thought I would. I just bought my holy grail BB cream which is the Dr. Jart+ Black Label BB Cream and that was it. The reason being is that I was overwhelmed...

When I got this in the mail, I was over the moon with happiness because everything about this lipstick is posh. It has a mind-blowing work of art packaging (which I will surely recycle and use as a decor in the future). It is even housed in a carton jewelry box that for me, resembles a shoe box which is so fitting for the...

There is something peculiar with my make up choices/purchases recently. Most of you know that I am a die hard fan of wearing bright lip colors. I'm quite lazy with my make up that's why I always feel that popping a bold lip color would somewhat balance out my (always) bare eye lids.  But recently, I find myself reaching for more subtle lip...

Ever since I discovered Shopback, I went a little bit nuts with online shopping. If you are not yet familiar with this program, Shopback is a nice way to earn back a portion of what you've spent through rebates which you can cash out to your paypal or bank account. It caters to a lot of online shops like Zalora, Lazada, Sephora.ph, Agoda, etc....

Like anybody else, I have a fair share of regretful buys. As a self-proclaimed beauty enthusiast, I love testing out new products all the time. Sometimes, I hit the jackpot. Most of the time, I find myself genuinely disappointed. Good thing, this beauty predicament was remedied by the ladies behind Sampleroom.ph through sampling. Here, you could avail of the samples that their brand partners...

Basically, I have straight lashes that need all the help that it can get from a trusty mascara. Since most mascaras tend to dry out easily (and I constantly repurchase them), I'm always on the hunt for a mascara that would give me the length and volume that my pathetic lashes need without breaking the bank. One of my fave drugstore mascara is...

If there is one product that I have used every single day (and recommended to all my friends) last Summer, it is no other than the Belo SunExpert Perfecting Shield Tinted Sunscreen With SPF 50 PA++++. I first sampled this at Sampleroom.ph and right after the first application, I knew I would love this sunscreen to bits! It is one of those products that helped...

I finally hit the bullet and placed my very first online order at Sephora Philippines last May 8, 2016. Sephora had a 15% off sale that time so I took advantage of the discount that they were offering and got myself a few things. ...

Today, I will be writing about my holy grail eye shadow primer. It is from Nars, and mind you, it's the best! I have tried a couple eye shadow primers in the past, but nothing in my books is comparable to this one. ...

Mac Please Me tickled my fancy when I read somewhere that this is one of Angelica Panganiban's (Filipina actress) fave lip color to wear. She even posted a picture on her Instagram account years ago. I tried it out initially but I find that it's quite similar to my Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Supreme Matte lipstick M PK 348 lipstick so I passed....

Yesterday, I was invited to watch an advance screening of the movie, "The Candidate." This is such a very timely movie that tackles about politics and election in a rom-con way. If you are tired from all the drama of the coming election this May 9, I suggest you watch My Candidate because here, Derek, Iza & Shaina gave the election season a...

Whenever I do my make up, I always use a primer before layering my foundation. I just like how primers really help in creating that smooth canvas that makes my foundation to just glide effortlessly onto my skin. I have a few faves (Laura Mercier and Nars) but I finished them already so I was on the hunt for a new one. I...

I'm quite fair already, but if I want to amp it up a notch brighter instantly (or to even out my skin tone), I use lotions that claim to magically lighten the skin in one application. I have already used (and reviewed) a ton from all sort of brands (Snoe, Vaseline, Glupa, Belo) and have mixed feelings about them. But when I saw...

Truth be told, lipstick is one of my favorite make up item to buy (or to ask for pasalubong). Having dropped that fact, I own quite a number. I rotate my lipsticks as much as possible, but still, I rarely finish a tube. That's why I don't mind owning miniature lipsticks like this one from Tom Ford Lips & Boys range. I currently...

I remember all the hype about this foundation when it was first released some years ago. I got a sample of this and loved it so much that despite its hefty price tag (Php2,550), I decided to give this a go (pump sold separately). Up to this time, I still have no regrets in buying this foundation. I always feel the prettiest when...

Fact is, I will forever be a bright lipstick kinda girl. I just like how one swipe of a bright hue lipstick instantly makes my face brighter and more alive. So despite having the Kylie Jenner lip trend right now, I still haven't jumped into the bandwagon. On that happy note, let me feature one of Mac's iconic bright pink lipstick; - Impassioned. ...

Ever since I started coloring my hair years ago, I never went back to my natural hair color which is jet black. I just feel that brown-toned colors look better against my complexion compared to plain and boring black (no pun intended). But as I much as I would like to get a new hair color as frequent as my mane desires, I...

I know that I have been on a major beauty blogging hiatus recently. Please excuse my absence because I have just been so caught up with other life-changing things (read:my wedding, updating my blog layout, etc). But now that I have finally booked almost all of my major wedding suppliers (thank God!), expect to read more blog posts from me (promise!). To kick...
