Wow. Glee might not have won during the Emmy Awards this year, but you can all agree with me that Lea Michele was quite a stunner that night. Boy, look at her!

Ok, it’s truth time. Whatever happened to my MAC Viva Glam Lady Gaga and Cyndi lipsticks?
Well, they both moved on, you see.
My Viva Glam Lady Gaga lipstick has moved on to my….traincase. It’s been in my professional traincase for photoshoots, as I deem it a very interesting color – perhaps to balance a smoky eye. I really love it. It’s such a keeper. It’s not for everyday use, but it’s an interesting color that is just photograph-worthy.
My Viva Glam Cyndi lipstick, on the other hand, has moved on to….my sisters. Once I placed it on our common vanity table, I could not just locate it anymore! There were some instances that I would see it inside a bag of my sister, and another instance, in another bag. Looks like Cyndi was just so wearable for everyday that my sisters have gotten it from my hands! Haha!
But then…all’s not lost, because of my new MAC Viva Glam Lipglasses, in both colors! Wanna take a peek?

This fall, NARS Cosmetics introduces two very useful palettes, and they are coupled with a new packaging – a compact NARS-logo zippered case. Very cute, isn’t it? I personally think that they know how to play with their very versatile logo and work around with modern packaging while retaining its timelessness and the iconic vibe.
The new palettes, wonderfully named Beautiful Life, and Only You ( sounds like these names came from the movies! ), include two signature NARS cheek products chosen to complement the lips or eyes – whether deep or sultry, or light and fresh.

In the recent MAC In The Groove Collection, I was able to get two lipsticks of my favorite texture – cremesheen! Cremesheens glide on like cream, and give really good , lustrous, but opaque coverage on the lips. All Styled Up and Call My Bluff are part of the In The Groove Collection, but I might as well add another Cremesheen lipstick to my swatches : my favorite, Shy Girl.

Oh, how I LOVE grapes. My first favorite drink was Welch Grape Juice. I begged my mom to hoard this Chinese brand grape jelly in Chinese food stores when I was little, chewed in Mentos’ grape flavor during high school, and my latest addiction? Mentos’ Grape Chewing Gum! Hahaha!
With my great love for grapes, imagine my glee when I was given the chance to try Watson’s latest body care line, GrapeBella!
Named after its main ingredient and the Italian word for beautiful, Watsons GrapeBella contains wine extracts from French grapes that are naturally rich in protective antioxidants. Its regenerative Grape Seed Oil moisturizes to help prevent the signs of aging for soft, smooth skin.
With that in mind, many are beginning to discover the many benefits of grapes to our health and skin.
“It has been discovered that a glass of wine a day is good for the health. The reason? Grapes! Grape juice has always been a fantastic natural source of antioxidants, and when it comes to beauty, grape extracts have been known to reduce wrinkles, reduce acne, and give skin a youthful glow among other things,” explains sommelier Ines Cabarrus.
Grape Seed Oil, as I have read thru, is a powerful antioxidant that fights free radicals and contributes to anti-aging. It wouldn’t hurt to use products with such ingredients, after all, they are to be used for one of my favorite activities – taking a bath!
With this, here’s my take on the GrapeBella range!

Boy, this must be one of my favorite collections so far. When I received some items from the latest MAC Collection, namely Pret a Papier, one look at the shades, and bam. I felt that MAC just solidified the orange revolution. This collection will surely make you think twice of getting another pink lipstick again, and would really make you want to try an orange one!
Okay, let’s make a run thru of each of the items I have over here :

When I went gaga over MAC Give Me Liberty of London‘s lipsticks, right after roadtesting the very bold Petals and Peacocks, I could not resist, and asked my friend Smile, who resided in Hong Kong to get me two more lipsticks from that certain collection, mainly because I loved the cremesheen and amplified cream formulas. She was able to get me two more – MAC Lipstick in Peachstock, and in Blooming Lovely. I was about to ask her to get me the shade in Ever Hip, but it was too late already. Oh well!

These are one of the days wherein I feel so bored, but so inspired ( oh yeah, they work well together in my system! haha! ) , that I just thought I’d have some fun with my new Urban Decay Alice in Wonderland Palette. One word – love. Oh, make that two – Love, love. Three? Love, love, love! Hahaha!
Anyway, I’ve decided to go colorful this time, and play with the vivid colors included in the palette,
