Serums. I have plenty of them. Reason? It’s because my skin chooses serums for nourishment over moisturizers and creamy products. My skin is so oily that it can only rely on serum for hydration, anti-acne, anti-aging, anti-pigmentation, and salvation. I’m so addicted with serums that I read through so much literature and research every single one that I could come across with.

I’ve heard so much raves about Estee Lauder‘s skin care, and how amazing it is in terms of anti-aging. With my really oily skin, I really wanted to be a fan of anti-aging skin care though I honestly could not indulge in it as most anti-aging products in the market are cream-based, and might clog my pores and cause more breakouts in my acne-prone skin. Needless to say, anti-acne is my priority now, though I really want to keep my skin young as long as I can. Estee Lauder’s anti-aging skin care samples given to me by the company were passed on to my dad ( yes, lucky him! ), who loves Estee Lauder’s Time Zone Night Anti-Line/Wrinkle Creme to bits. People compliment on how he looked younger when he religiously used it. Oh wow, lucky him, right?

Last night was quite a lucky night for me as I got to chance upon Sofia Vergara’s guesting on Ellen’s on ETC 2nd Avenue. I was actually tweeting that I couldn’t stop laughing because everything Sofia Vergara uttered was simply crazy hilarious, and Ellen DeGeneres’ quick, and sarcastic humor really won me over! My family could not stop laughing all throughout, and as I am looking for videos of the episode, I couldn’t find any! But I found out that they are actually Covergirl’s image models/endorsers, and let me share with you a really funny behind the scenes video of their commercial,

The result? Here’s their commercial for Covergirl and Olay’s Tone Rehab 2 in 1 Foundation,

With my bleached and ash blonde hair right now, you must be thinking if I had regrets with it. Well, as soon as I went home and faced the mirror, a realization just swept on to me – I needed to maintain it, and at that moment, I just remembered seeing some people who have had hair bleached like mine with their hair looked really dry and damaged already – which explains why I was scared of getting adventurous with my hair color and stalled bleaching for a while. I realized that bleached hair and colored hair was prone to damage. ( just now? ok pardon my craziness ) Okay, Sophie. Your hair is not going to the dry and damaged direction. You are going to do absolutely everything to keep it nice and soft-looking!

As I have been told by the staff at Creations Salon that my hair looked really healthy despite getting bleached months before ( my hair was bleached since August ), I credited it to my using organic shampoo and conditioner by Venus and Mars. I cracked the code and realized that using sulfate-free cleansers is the reason why my hair has been this healthy. So now, I’ve really been trying organic hair care products to take care of my hair.

Well, this is still beauty-related as Smart C is a drink loaded with Vitamin C and Vitamin C does not only take care of our health, keeping colds and sicknesses at bay, it also makes our skin glow and healthy!

Smart C deserves a post in my beauty blog as it has been my “official” health drink for Bazaar Season 2011. Well, even before that, during Team E’s Tagaytay bonding session, I was the official Smart C girl, asking everyone to bring a Smart C drink that ended up in an excess supply that we brought a bottle each for our lunch affair! Haha!

For Bazaar Season 2011, it was really toxic and tiring. It was fun, so Straw and I needed to be healthy at all times! Smart C is the perfect drink for me as I really enjoy its flavor (lemon for me, please!), my thirst is quenched, I get some interesting flavor aside from my luxurious bottle of mineral water ( I LOVE water ), and my health is safe!

So, thank you Smart C for keeping me healthy, and well-nourished during bazaar season, as well as tasting really good that I keep coming back for more!

So, who likes Smart C here? Raise your hand!!!

I’ve always found it hard to find contour kits that are easy to use, and yet very affordable. 2011 has been very kind to me, that I was able to find one really remarkable shading/highlighting kit – Sleek Makeup’s Contour Kit in Medium.

2011 was the year when Sleek had its “soft-domination,” amongst beauty enthusiasts in Manila. Sleek is actually a really popular makeup brand in the UK, and is really known for their pout paints (very much like OCC’s Lip Tar) and their lipsticks with really nice, and bold shades. But me, I’m finding solace in their contour kits, as I really need it.

My face, I feel, is okay. It’s oval, but heart-shaped. But sometimes, I feel that my face gets fat from all the eating that I do. Do you sometimes feel that your face is fat? I know some people do, but I know that sometimes, I do. I don’t intend to save up for surgery because I’m not THAT bothered by it that it kills my self esteem, but sometimes, I’d love that well-sculpted face, and when I know that it can be done by makeup, I do it. I mean why not? Makeup is fun, and makeup can transform you. I firmly believe in the power of makeup, and I just must love contouring as it makes a huge difference on my face! Slimming techniques on the face in just a few strokes? Game on!

I’ve always been honest with you. My nails are…well, nails. My nails are brittle, I never had the patience to grow them long, and though I really, really envision myself having long, elegant-looking nails, I always find myself on a path of sabotage and nail-destruction, as my nails easily break. I’ve tried them all – even the crazy teflon-coated Sally Hansen nail strengtheners, and I just couldn’t make my nails grow longer and stronger. And ok, not blaming it all on my nail-DNA, I also don’t feel like typing and doing stuff with my hands with long nails. I’m quite comfortable this way – with short nails that do all the labor, carry stuff, type like a maniac ( I scored high during typing maniac okay ), and all.

Although, sometimes, I just don’t feel like a lady sometimes with my short nails, and much more, a short nailbed. Haha! So…just imagine what I did during a really boring day at the mall…

When I went to Cebu for the opening of MAC Cosmetics’ new branch there, it was also the launch of the Glitter and Ice Collection, and the Holiday gift sets were all there! I was immediately drawn to a gorgeous nude lipstick, which was actually the Iced Delights Lip Bag in Wintercool from the Ice Parade Collection. Call me impulsive, but I bought that set, for the love of the lipstick alone! Well, here are my thoughts about the Iced Delights Lip Bag in Wintercool .
