Pink Sugar Creamy Matte Lipstick in Girl Next Door

Hello dearies!

I always tell my friends to have at least one nude lipstick in your makeup kits. It's like your little black dress because you can never go wrong when you use a nude lippie, whether you're just shopping for groceries or attending a wedding!

The tricky part here is finding the right shade. Some nude lipsticks will make you look pale, while some do not compliment your skin and will just look grey.

So far I've seen some that works great for me and I think I like the pinkish nudes the best, but I also love wearing peachy nudes like this one...

Chihuahua Cosmetics Eyeliner in Black

Hi dears!

I believe that most makeup enthusiast's problem is not fully using all the products they buy before it expires. I think it's because we jump to another product even before we finish the one we currently have, not necessarily because we don't like the quality, but because of our curiosity to try something new. I'm guilty of that, and I buy so, soooo much, especially blushes and eyeshadows that takes a long time for me to finish.

So when I saw Chihuahua Cosmetics' ad saying, "When was the last time you finished a lipstick?" placed on their booth at the BDJ x Project Vanity Beauty Bootcamp, it got me thinking—it's been a looong time ago since I did! I thought of all the products I wasted just because I wanted to try a new one. And so I appreciate what Chihuahua Cosmetics is doing and that's providing products that are smaller in size so we can actually use up the products we buy (it feels really good to actually get your money's worth and actually use up the makeup you have). Their items are also travel-friendly too!

Japan Trip (2018) Haul

Hello loves!

It's been three weeks since I got back from our trip to Japan. This time I went to Kyoto and Osaka. 

Japan is such a beautiful country and I've always wanted to visit ever since I got obsessed with Anime when I was ten years old. Haha! I'm so fascinated with their art, fashion, and food that I just had to go back. Last year I was in Tokyo and I really enjoyed that trip and that is why I just had to go back and see more of what the country has to offer.

My family decided to go during the spring to see the beautiful trees and flowers. My mom loves looking at them. Our trip to Tokyo last year was during the winter and it was too cold that we couldn't stay outside for a long period of time. Now we get to enjoy a view like these...

RiRe Pigment in A Pink

Hey dolls!

I've been buying glittery liquid/cream eyeshadows lately and I just liked glitter so much that I decided to add more sparkles by getting a loose powder version! Haha!

Here's what I bought...

I Defeated Cracked Heels with Footlogix!

Hey dears!

I'm a pretty heavy gal with small feet... well, I'm a size 6.5-7 (US shoe size), which is average, but if you compare it to my plus-size self, they look small. So just imagine my two small feet carrying such a heavy weight all day! 

I surely demand so much from my feet and they tire easily and they do get damaged, especially when I walk a lot like whenever I travel. Aside from sore muscles, I get calluses and cracked heels! My feet really deserves the right treatment and pampering.

Just a year ago I finally gave the proper attention that my feet deserves. I made sure that I get products that will help my feet look and feel better because they really looked bad. So I started applying foot lotions and treat my feet with a foot spa at home every few weeks. Fortunately, my feet looked better than it was and I was content.

But just a few weeks ago, I received a message that Footlogix Philippines was willing to send me three of their products to try. I gotta be honest, I wasn't aware of the brand, but seeing as it's a brand that specializes on foot care, I was all in! I definitely want to try some products that will further help improve the condition of my feet. 

The Body Shop Metal Lip Liquid in Pink Nickel

Hello dear!

Do you also love rocking metallic lippies? 

Although I'm still a huge fan of mattes, I still want to have fun with other looks. Metallic lipsticks are one of the looks I turn to often because they are long-lasting and they just give that extra glamorous shine without being glossy!

One of my favorite shades to use, which I think is also perfect for the summer, is...

Review : Bioderma Photoderm Aquafluide MAX SPF 50+

Hey loves!

Summer is here and it's freakin' hot! Literally!

And because of the heat, we can't avoid getting sweaty and there will also be less rain (no clouds = direct sunlight Yikes!) for the next couple of months so finding the right skincare for our climate would be a great help. I think I found just the one...

Revlon Super Lustrous Street Chic Collection Swatches

Hello lovelies!

Last February, I attended Beauty Confidential—an event by BDJ and Project Vanity. I was able to take home a media kit and inside the kit is a box from Revlon.

I was pretty excited to open the red box particularly because among the items in the media kit, it's the only one that came with its own box. I was still at Glorietta (where the event was held) and I couldn't wait to open it so I had to peek inside the box just so I can satisfy my curiosity and here's what I saw...

February-March (2018) Haul

Hey everyone! 

Just got back from my vacation at Japan a couple of days ago. I'm still on a high because that was a 9-day long trip and I was able to see so many beautiful sights and ate delicious food. I'll share with you some of the details on a future post along with the beauty items I bought. :)

For today, I want to at least post something on the blog. So here's a haul post about the new items I bought for the past two months (I know I keep saying I need to stop but I will give up now because I know myself and I'm pretty sure I'll keep on buying something for the next coming months. Haha!). So here they are...

First is this Althea Box. I took advantage of their clearance sale and I bought items with huge discounts! Yay! I'll post the original price but I was able to buy all items at half off.
