I realize I have been terribly lagging on my blogging posts. >o<" I am sorry but I have been pretty preoccupied lately. Anyway, I just wanted to say "HI!" to everyone. I hope everyone is doing well. :3

By the way I'm moving to a new condo unit so I'll have to wait for the internet connection to be reinstalled. :o/ Till then everyone! ;)

BTW, after my long makeup ban I have finally bought something a while ago, and yes, I was able to control myself from hauling this time but I just couldn't resist the orange blush I saw. LOL! Review coming up next time as I haven't tried it yet.

Update

Hi! How's everyone? I finally changed my blog layout because I have been experiencing problems with my own page thus, not being able to reply to your comments.


I have a bunch of reviews to do for everyone but the only problem is I have not had time to take photos of the products I want to post about. :( 


I promise to be a bit more active now. LOL! :) And, I do hope everyone is well.


Anyway, last Saturday my sisters and I went to Republiq. It's a club at the Second Level, Newport Mall, Resorts World Manila, Pasay City, Philippines.


The crowd was great but I wasn't too crazy about the DJ since he only played house music.
I didn't actually plan on going out but my sisters said I should since I was getting rather crabby lately. So at the last minute  I have decided it's finally time to socialize and meet new people since school has been driving me crazy lately. As you might notice from the photos, I forgot to wear my contact lenses and.... Yeah, I almost tripped for like 3 times when I was there since I was such in a hurry to get dressed. >o<" 


Here are some photos:

with Sajie and my sister, Bea

with Francis Patrick Cuartero of YoyoNation

Well, it's already the middle of the week. :) I hope you have had a good one so far. 

Thanks for reading. I promise to post reviews soon.

BTW, I have been buying skin products but I really haven't bought any makeup since I posted about my makeup ban. LOL! Cheers! x)

Dear ♥ ,

Had I been allowed to exchange you for additional brain matter or anything more worthwhile I would've readily done so without giving it much thought. But, I still need you to pump blood to the rest of my body like what you're supposed to do.
So can you just please do the task - not get all giddy & mushy over irrelevant whatnots.
Smitten isn't a word that is welcome to my life right now. I know that you have masochistic tendencies but can we drop it for the next couple of years?

Hello everyone! Sorry if  I haven't been as active as I used to. As I said in my previous post, law school is keeping me busy lately and, there are just some issues I have to sort out.

I am feeling very guilty for not updating. I'd also like to share this random rambling:

A person can fool the whole world with a smile yet, no amount of deception is enough to fool one's self.

So yesterday, I prepared for school and studied just to later find out that classes were suspended due to typhoon Basyang. :( Here's my FOTD for yesterday.

Pretty much the same makeup I use for my everyday look with the addition 

of Etude House VIP girl in OR-206.  

Can I just say that I really love the Candy Doll blush? Thankyou again Tom and Sakie! :3

Original Photo

My skin has really been breaking out. :(

I asked my sister to edit it for me. :3

What do you think of the glasses? LOL!

Thank you very much for reading.

I hope you are all doing well.

UPDATE - Makeup Ban

Hi! How is everyone? :3 I'm so sorry for the complete lack of updates as well as for not being to comment on your lovely blogs. I have been quite busy with school and have a lot of things on my mind right now. Plus I can't comment on my blog and can't view my blog as well. My laptop keeps hanging whenever I do. :(


I have also decided to put myself on a temporary makeup ban. Hopefully, I will be able to do a review on some of the stuff I have by this week.

I wish you all a nice week ahead! :3

Night out with the girls

Hi everyone! :3 I'm sorry if I've been MIA lately. There's something wrong with blogger. I couldn't post the other night and, things has gotten rather busy. 

Anyway, my bestfriend Councillor Kate Galang-Coseteng invited me to dinner last night. So I thought I'd share some photos.

At Abe, Serendra:

Kate and me, still friends after a decade hahaha!

with her sister Kim and my sister Enky.

Lovely ladies at Kate's House in White Plains. 

I was late for like 45 minutes and I told Kate and Kim to order and eat ahead since I knew they were already hungry. Sorry, no food pictures. :(

Abe in Serendra serves Filipino food. We ate:

-  Sinigang na Bangus Belly with Ripe Guava

-  Gising Gising

-  Pork Lengua Asado

-  Calamres en su Tinta

-  Plain rice

We also had Sikreto ni Maria for dessert (Maria's secret).

The ambiance is nice and cozy. It was full of people though, I wouldn't recommend going there without a reservation.

The food is delicious!!! Everything was juicy and tender. The Sikreto ni Maria is a must try!

We also had a few drinks and went to Kate's house afterwards to drink some more. :3

Kate prepared lumpia with green pepper. I'm not sure what's it called but it was delicious!

It was really nice and relaxing to chat and catch up with them since we're all busy. We hardly have time to talk anymore. :( Kate's just one of the few people I have met who's beautiful inside and outside. She even gave me makeup LOL! She said I was vain and I should take it since she doesn't use it as much. I will post photos of the makeup next time.

I hope everyone is having a good week.

MODE: Oneegyaru ~ Thankyou Tom & Sakie of Exotic Japan

Last June 16-17, Tom of Exotic Japan held a very fun giveaway.

And.... I won grand price!!! This was definitely a first for me since I am not the type of person who wins anything by chance.. 

Oh hello Random.org - Yeah, I hate you, like seriously. :p

There was one time in my life where my class in college had drawn lots and everyone but me won something. :3 So, I'm pretty much used to not winning. X___x  LOL! Imagine ho shocked I was when Tom emailed me. I was like, WHOOOOAAAA! O.O

The original price were MOE candies. :3 But since Tom knew I liked makeup he asked if I wanted to keep the candies or a candy doll blush.

Of course I chose the candy doll blush! But he surprised me by sending the two items. It was soooo generous of him to do so!

So, as promised I have taken photos of me with the blush on. >o<"

Again, my camera refuses to work with me. I was trying to take the photos with natural lighting but LOL! they came out uneven. I'm still going to post everything though. 

So here's the package which arrived today when I was emailing Tom. LOL! We were both getting worried that a fat cross dressing custom officer might have taken fancy of the MOE candies. >o<"

The package looks like it's pretty been beat up. >o<" Good thing there was a soft padding inside. 

Here's what's inside - Candy Doll blush in Strawberry Pink and MOE candies

First, the Moe candies. :3 It's ichigo/strawberry flavored. My youngest sister has taken the liberty to open this and start eating it while I was opening the blush. Little sisters are just sooooooo cute, right?

The packaging is also soooooo cute!

Here's the popular Candy Doll Blush in Strawberry Pink

It's soooo pretty!! The packaging is so small but don't let that fool you just one swipe of this baby is gonna deliver a lot of color. Don't let the color scare you too. It's wearable. :3

Swatches - It's so pigmented! I don't know why the camera wouldn't pick the color up. :o/ But it's really pigmented IRL. It's very creamy and feels nice to touch. ~Sigh

Just one swipe is enough. It's also kind of shimmery and isn't matte but I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

Cam whoring!!! Please excuse the uneven lighting. I seriously don't look like a panda IRL. O.o Plus my skin has broken out since last week because it's that time of the month and I'm very stressed. :o/

Face: Etude House Dr. Oil Solution Shine free dual primer, Revlon PhotoReady 004 Nude, MAC Studio Fix NC 30 and

MAC concealer in NC25

Eyes: Etude House Drawing Eye Brow, Etude House Tear Drop Liner, Etude House cream eyeshadow and dark brown eyeshadow, Prestige Biggest Lashes in Black and Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner in Black

Lips: HNN in peppermint, MAC to the beach in Splashing Lip glass and Etude House Dear Darling Glass

Errr... No, my nose isn't that big either LOL! >,<

I am very happy! WEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! ^o^ 

Ok, sorry for the picture overload. I understand it must be tiring to see my face over and over again. Hahaha!

To Tom and Sakie-

I heart you both! 

Please visit their blog, Exotic Japan - Tom's a great photographer and you'd be amazed at the photos of the sights and things on their blog. I remember being drawn to it because of all the yummy food pictures! It was also in their blog that I discovered that Wasabi flavored Kit-Kat's exist. O.o I think Sakie is currently busy but she's also very nice.

Have a fabulous weekend everyone!
Ja-neh.. ^_^
