Review : Milk Peel Cream Mask

Hello dearies!

It's the last day of 2018 and since I didn't plan anything for today, I want to keep my last few hours of the year as productive as possible and I figured, why not write a review? 

This one is actually overdue, but to be fair, I usually take a longer time to write skincare reviews since it takes a while to see any difference on the skin compared to just wearing makeup.

This product that I'll be share with you is one of Althea's exclusive products. I have reviewed some of their releases and I've been enjoying every product so far, specially the Petal Velvet Sunaway. This newer item is another skincare product that would works well with my oily skin type...

October-November (2018) Haul

Hey dolls!

How was your Christmas? Mine has been pleasant and I spent Christmas eve shopping and eating, which is pretty much a must during the holidays. Haha! Anyway, I'll share with you my Christmas haul sometime soon but for now, let me share with you the products I bought during the last two months. The sales were endless during the -ber months and online shopping sites took advantage of the festive season by creating soooo many massive discounts and I am one of the victims of shopping splurges. The last couple of months were stressful for me also so a good retail therapy happened and I felt better. Hahaha!

Even though I used a lot of money to buy these, I have no regrets and I'm happy with most of my buys and will make reviews (if I haven't posted them yet) and post them on the blog. So without further a do, here are the items I bought during October and November this year...

First off are my BeautyMNL purchases. They had many buy 1 take 1 products. Some of the items in the picture above were shared with officemates so that we don't have to pay separate shipping fees.

Review : Dr. Morita Hyaluronic Acid Essence Mask

Hello dears!

A couple of months ago, I got introduced to Dr. Morita sheet masks through their event when they finally brought their products to Philippine shores. There I learned about the brand's history and the different product variants available. This Taiwanese brand headed by Dr. Chun Hsu Jou has developed a number of sheet masks through thorough research and it shows that their sheet masks are well-loved as it is one of the bestselling masks in Asia, specially in Taiwan and Hong Kong.

I left the event with ten sheet masks of their most popular product—The Hyaluronic Acid Essence Mask.

My 2018 Althea Christmas Wishlist

Hello loves!

Christmas is just around the corner and you know what that means—Christmas Shopping Spree!!!

I'm actually guilty of shopping a bit early and mostly online because the Manila traffic is even more horrible during the Christmas season and I don't want to be stuck in traffic for hours. I'm just so thankful that many online stores are available for us to browse and buy what we like. And speaking with online stores, one of my most frequently visited one is Althea! I do love my Korean beauty products and I've been browsing their website first even before I became an Althea Angel.

And now, I just browsed Althea and have my eyes glued on some of their products. So for today's post, let me share with you my Althea Wishlist this Christmas.

Chica y Chico One Shot Eye Palette in Wine Burgundy

Hi dearies!

I think it's no secret that I like the color peach and I tend to pick shades that are near the warm pinks or rose gold whenever I look at eyeshadow palettes. But pair it with glittery golds and beautiful wine red shades, then you have a palette that I would reach for EVERYDAY. This is something different for me since I like trying different looks everyday. I rarely use the same product for consecutive days, except if I'm out traveling and I only brought a few products with me.

But this product that I'll share today just made me do what was unusual for me and I literally used it everyday for a week since I got them and it's still a favorite of mine for more than a month now...

Review : The Project Vanity x Ellana Life-Proof Eyebrow Gel

Hello loves!

The phrase "Kilay is life" easily became popular to every beauty enthusiast in the country. Come to think of it, just a bit over a decade ago, I was only one of the few people in our college batch that wears makeup in class. But now, I see more young people who wear makeup even in school (I currently work in a university so I see students everyday). So I think it is safe to say that the beauty market grew exponentially and more and more Filipinos look for better quality products that fit their budget, which resulted to more beauty brands stepping up their game to meet these demands! It's such a good time to love beauty products!

In this light, two of my trusted local beauty brands did just that—they created a product that I'm sure many makeup enthusiast would absolutely love. I got so excited when I heard about this for the first time. It's a collaboration between Project Vanity and Ellana Mineral Cosmetics. If you love makeup and it just so happens that you also live under a rock and unaware what Project Vanity is, it's one of the leading blogs in the Philippines that writes about beauty. Ellana Mineral Cosmetics, on the other hand, is, hands down, my favorite mineral makeup brand since 2014. So as much as I just raved about these brands, I assure you that this review is not biased at all, but it did made me have very high expectations about this new product...
