Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus is now in Manila!

#spotlight

To try and make my skin heal faster, I am aiding it with Clinique's Repairwear Laser Focus which promises to smooth, restore, and correct skin imperfections (and in my case, early signs of wrinkles... AAAAAH!!) I must admit, I am getting a little antsy waiting for my skin to heal from the laser wart removal and I doing everything that I can to help my skin build new skin faster!

The scabs are really itchy and I know I can't scratch or remove them to avoid scarring. All I can do is apply an alcohol free toner, antibacterial cream, this serum and my regular day/night moisturizer. At least for now.

Getting Ready for Spring with Revlon Smoky Shadow Stick

#productreview

If you don't already know, I love Revlon's Smoky Shadow Stick. I think they're very convenient and you can carry them around for instant evening looks, specially when you're a gal on the go. I have several of these, and I can create so much looks by bringing just 2 or 3 of these.

These shadow sticks from Revlon have been around in the market for at least a year but I take my time to review each product I receive.

Since this was given to me by Revlon, I will update my blog post on the price as soon as I find out.

Some TLC from Saforelle (Updated 1.10.14)

#productreview #spotlight

When Aunt Flow comes over to visit monthly like clock work (If you don't know who Aunt Flow is, it's some of you call The Red Flag), my hoo-ha begins to itch because of the hormonal imbalance that occurs and the PH level in your area change. Some may even have a (excuse me) weird smell. Eeek. Gross, but it's part of growing up and becoming a woman so don't fret.

In the market today, there are quite a few number of feminine washes to choose from. For the longest time, I used one that my OB-GYN recommended but honestly? I got tired of it. It worked well but I just got bored with it. One of the main reasons was that it was just too runny and watery so I just ended up wasting a whole lot of it. There are a lot more but I really don't want to get into them right now.

And of course, there's Saforelle.

#liptalktuesdays #latepost

I was late in posting this because I had a wedding yesterday, but anyway, here's my post for #liptalktuesdays!

This is the first time I'll be using Too Cool for School so I am pretty excited. I want to thank the TCFS team for sending me their cool products! They sent me a few items from the Glam Rock Collection but I will start with the lipstick to keep the focus on one product at a time. *wink*

Feel like a goddess with Eye of Horus' smokey eye pencil!

#eyespymondays

I have been sporting the smokey eye lately, but with a completely bare face. When I say bare, I say no foundation, no blush, no power, lots of petroleum jelly on my lips and just a little groom in' on my brows. I have always believed that in makeup, keep one focal point in your face. And wight now, I am keeping the focus on my eyes.

Revlon's Cherries in the Snow Lippie

#liptalktuesdays

Just when I thought I didn't need anymore lippies to add to my lipstick collection 27 of which haven't been reviewed yet, I discovered Revlon's Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherries in the Snow. That's why I don't like going to the cosmetics counter when I am in shopping mode during the Holidays, I see so much new makeup and I end up buying them on a whim.

Not that I'm complaining though, I truly love this lipstick and it has already been justified by me why I needed another lipstick. Hahaha!

Your 'Perfect Solution' in Removing Excess Dirt, Oil, and Makeup!

#productreview #spotlight

TONER TIME! I love toner. I think that it is the most important piece of skin care that is part of your regime. If you don't already know, toner DOES NOT close the pores. Your pores are not doors, they don't open and close. The tightness you feel after you tone your face is actually the pores being dirt and oil free. The cleaner they are, the more tight and taught it feels. That's where the moisturizer comes in.

Happy Sabs with Happy Skin Lippies!

#liptalktuesdays #productreview

Today is a special day... and why you may ask? It's because I get to open and use 2 new lippies and share them with you! Lipstick is one of my favorite makeup products of all time because they make or break your entire look, specially when they have the right formula; and with clever and cheeky names for lipsticks, it's impossible not to fall in love with these chubby little thangs!

My New Year's Eve Look using Inglot

#eyespymondays #productreviews

I am so excited for New Year's Eve! You get all dressed up and made up, and the perfect overall look takes careful planning! Every year, my cousins and I meet up after the "salubong" and go out clubbing until the wee hours of the morning to meet the first sunrise of the new year!

When Inglot was launched and we were given a freedom palette to fill up as our giveaway, I had the New Year's Eve countdown in mind. I love getting all dolled up on NYE so that I will be beautiful all year round (superstitious much?) LOL

Blush-ing naturally with Palgantong

#faceitwednesdays

One thing I am picky about are blushes. I am really very choosy when it comes to them because if you put the wrong shade on your cheeks matching with the wrong lippie, it would just look clown-ish. But let's talk about matching blushes with lippies some other time.

Let's talk about blushes with the right formula. Let's talk about Palgantong.

Liptalk Tuesdays: Line and Seal

Styli-Style's Line and Seal pencils have been around but no one really talks about it -kind of like an un-sung hero. I have been buying these pencils for the past 2 years and I just love the shades and texture of it! Oh, and did I mention that it's long lasting?

Hair Care Week: DAY 6 Enhancing Your Waves/Curls (Product Review)

#haircareweek

I was born with naturally wavy hair, and growing up it was hard since it was always poofy. Back then in the 90s, girls sported stick straight hair with the bangs flipped over to one side. Me? I had frizzy bangs with baby hair always growing on the roots on my forehead that they stuck out. My best friend was a hair tie.

I finally gave up on trying different products to straighten my hair and started embracing the waves I was given. At this day and age, companies have come out with curling shampoos and conditioners that would enhance the natural texture of your hair.

Hair Care Week: DAY 3 Superstar Hair

#haircareweek

I love hair serums, I think they work and they do so much good for damaged hair like mine. Unfortunately, they tend to make hair a bit greasy and heavy. So it's best to apply them at night and wash them off in the morning if you are one of those peeps who style their hair for work.

Feeling Pretty in Dainty Pale Pink Lips

#productreview

I discovered a new lippie today that gives a retro look. Pale pink lipsticks can still be worn this fall because they give your skin warmth. Pale lipsticks with this kind of shade make the skin appear tanner than they actually are!

Lift and Tighten with BRTC

#productreview

I first discovered BRTC when I was searching for Korean skin care online about 2 years ago. That's when I came across BRTC, and have been hooked on their skin care ever since. A Korean brand that is available only online here in Metro Manila, but is all over Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea and Japan.

I'm thrilled to tell you about BRTC's Pore Tightening System: Closes large pores, controls sebum, and moisturizes skin for an overall healthy glow! Not to mention, erases wrinkles and firms the skin for instant lifting!
