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!

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!

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

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.

Are you ready to blast off with Maybelline's The Rocket Mascara? I have been waiting for this mascara to become available ever since I heard it was coming to Manila. And luckily, I got invited to the launch so I had first dibs on the newest mascara from the Maybelline mascara line.

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?

#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.

Glitters, Metallic Bronze Shadows and Plum lipsticks are all over for fall this 2013. You might be thinking that the plum lippie is "soooo last year", but it looks like it's here to stay for another season!

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!

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!

A couple of weeks ago, I received Lancome's latest eye cream, the Visionnaire Yeux. I took photos of it and waited two weeks until I posted it because I wanted to write a good review on it. Actually, it would have been better if I used it for a month but I was too excited!

When I was shooting a Korean indie film which wrapped up just last month, I was working with non-main stream actress Jee Sun Than (Photographed at the left). What she lacks in English communication skills, she makes up for kindness and beautiful PERFECT skin. (Photo courtesy of Jee Sun Than)
As we were nearing the end of our 2 month shoot together, I finally had the courage to ask her what skin care she was using. Her skin was like baby skin: PORELESS and Blemish Free. Korean women, she said, love skin care. But the one thing they really spend on is: FACIAL MASKS.

I have been obsessing about Revlon's SkinLights ever since they discontinued it years ago. I have been dying to look for an alternative because I haven't found the perfect one! (I really just wish Revlon would just give in and bring SkinLights back!)
I have heard about Benefit's Beam Line (High Beam, Sun Beam and Moon Beam) but I don't quite like the shade they come in. I went to Benefit last week because I had to buy something from my friend when I came across "Girl Meets Pearl".

Have you guys seen the Revlon Color Stay Ultimate Suede Lipstick Ad with Olivia Wilde? I love her lippie! That is the perfect shade that I want to sport this Fall!

Every girl has their "lazy days", when even women who can't live without makeup get lazy to even put on lipstick. What more spending extra minutes on applying a good makeup base? I am one of those women. I experience "tamaditis" on some days specially when PMS-ing (eeek! Sorry boys if you are reading this).
So when those days hit me, I turn to trusty old foundation powders that give me good coverage and I am out the door!

Shimmer bricks or multi-colored blushes in one pan are what's in right now. I love that the different shades of blushes in one pan can morph into one beautiful universal shade that can be used by both cool and warm skin toned women!
