My Very Very Early Stila Christmas Wishlist

As early as now, my mindset is that Santa is indeed alive, well, and real. As long as he brings my Christmas presents! And wait, can Christmas come early? Mega mega please? hahaha!

Kidding aside, I am feverishly lemming for these babies from Stila. Stila has the best trios on earth, and my contouring set is just plain love that I seriously want more.

Well, here goes!


Stila Front Row Look Eyeshadow Trio with Kajal Eyeliner

Totally. I’m obsessed with grays now and I want them ASAP ! It’s a bit challenging to blend them, though.

Waterproof Eyeliner Faceoff : MAC Powerpoint and Artdeco Pencil Eyeliner



I am going to confess about my naivete with pencil eyeliners in this entry.

Way back, I preferred liquid eyeliners. My preferred liquid eyeliner was mineral eyeliner ( in whatever color I fancy ), plus a drop of Bare Escentuals Weather Everything Liner Sealer. Twas perfect. Did not budge a bit. Even when I swim, it stays on my lids, and it only comes off when I use facial wash on my face!

Then came makeup school. It’s actually the first time that I’ve learned that you apply eyeliner at the inner rims of your eyes! So there, the idea that pencil eyeliners are needed came to mind because it is just a bit disturbing to imagine liquid eyeliner or something too darn permanent and drying to applied on the inner rims! haha! With my very very oily lids, and face, for that matter, I immediately asked for the most waterproof and smudge-proof eyeliners : I got both MAC Powerpoint and Artdeco Waterproof Pencil Eyeliner. I’ve different thoughts about the two, so here goes : Continue reading

MAC Cult of Cherry Must Haves

Believe me when I say that MAC Cosmetics’ Cult of Cherry is THE collection to anticipate for, and I recommend all girls to stop thinking when this arrives to our shores and just get them.

My must-have pics for the collection are three.

I Know What I Did This Weekend!

This weekend wasn’t ordinary for me. No, I wasn’t out watching movies with girlfriends, I did not go to my weekly dinners, nor did I meet up with anyone. I simply stayed at home sweet home, and reelaxed! Yes, nothing beats some once-in-a-while peace and quiet at home, watching TV, reading books, and listening to the silent music of the night. Clears the mind, I say!

Well, what did I REALLY do? Okay, it still wasn’t an excuse NOT to wear makeup or BE around makeup.

Good thing I have a doll that I could use as my model anytime, my sister Straw, as I fulfilled my dream of transforming a chinita into someone who would channel Kim Kardashian, whose makeup I sooo love! From the prime look that I always aim for her, I went adventurous and tried my Bourjois Ombre Stretch in Black to do the smoky eye! I also had a chance to practice my false eyelash-application skills, and voila! I’m glad I finally did it right!

What’s New : Bobbi Brown Shimmer Metallics

The weather’s getting a bit bit colder in this side of the world, and I can certainly feel that summer is just far far away. Metallics have always been associated with cold-weather fashion ( from fall to winter ), and metallic makeup’s edginess never fails to amaze me because they’re not only sexy, they’re so striking and ultra-glamorous as well!

A Singaporean Beauty Loot

I so agree with that. When in doubt, buy it. When you see something that you want in a foreign land, and the deal’s pretty good, don’t think twice anymore because chances are , it’ll take some time before you go back there! So, I went shopping!

During my stay there, the first thing I hunted for are well, beauty products. I was amazed on how much beauty brands are there, and well, let me show you my loot! This is to prove to all my friends who are teasing me that I hoarded cosmetics there that IT IS NOT TRUE! hahaha!

Keeping Oneself Beautiful While Traveling is a TOP Priority Part 2


Now that I’ve revealed the insides of my toiletry kit ( or big beauty kit, that is, ) let me let you peek in my makeup kit! This is the kit that I’d be bringing around me all the time. Singapore is a beautiful city, and the night life is said to be just wonderful and glamorous- and I am definitely going to glam myself up Friday night to go partying with my classmates from highschool whom I am meeting up! ( They’re working there already ).

The insides of my makeup kit :

A Beauty Addict’s Birthday Loot

*Takes a deep breath* well, here it is - what I’ve got for my birthday. Last year, on impulse, I got myself a Macbook and a DSLR Camera for my birthday ( of course, my dad paid for my Macbook and I paid for my camera haha! ). This year, the greatest birthday gift I gave myself was enrolling myself in makeup class - I will never regret this decision I made because I know in my heart that I love, love makeup, and of course, my birthday would not be complete without a beauty loot. A shameful one, actually. Hahaha!

This pre-birthday loot was purchased right after the MAC Bridal Makeup Workshop. I got myself a DUO Surgical Adhesive from the MAC Counter as we were going to be taught on how to apply false eyelashes the day after, Studiolights in Ideal Pink, Sand, ( and the darkest one the next day ) for my creme highlighting and contouring for my finals ( I’ve always wanted to do that ! ), a MAC Prep and Prime for the Eyes for my models, a Makeup For Ever Concealer Palette since I’ve been borrowing Jheng’s Cinema Secrets Concealer Palette at class for the longest time already, and two babies that flew in just in time for my birthday, Continue reading
