It's raining cats, dogs, pandas, whales, sharks, anteaters and ligers too...

Power's out and I'm blogging through my iPhone again. The wind is howling and it's been raining nonstop since last night. I hope everyone is ok.

Stay dry, safe and warm everyone! :)

Hello! Some of you have said that you missed my FOTDs. I haven't been posting makeup looks due to the following reasons:

1. My face is still healing.

2. I basically wear the same makeup/products everyday. :) This is why I tend to invest on what I buy. I usually try to get the most use of whatever product/s I own (except the blushes and eyeshadows!).

Left - cropped and watermarked; Right - Edited with Photoscape. (I like the edited version better so I deemed posting both side by side so you can see.)

My gray top is a gift from Apple. Thank you sis! <3

FACE:

- Smashbox Photofinish Foundation Primer

- Paul & Joe Protective Fluid Foundation S in 103

- Paul & Joe - Face Color - Love (7)

- Benefit Highbeam 

EYES:

- NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Cottage Cheese

- Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara in Black

- Paul & Joe Eye Color B in 003 Tranquility

LIPS:

Minus the aforementioned eyeshadows and highlighter, this is what I look like.

You can probably see that my skin is still peeling and still has pimple marks. 

Taking dessert pictures at Lusso, Greenbelt. 

Then upon arriving at our house 8 hours later I realized that I left my data cable in Manila. LOL! Sooo me! :P 

Have a great weekend everyone! :D

Testing Blogger Application for iPhone 4....

Hi! I hope this works. :)
EDIT: It does! 

By the way, I have a new blog layout from suckmylolly.com. :) I won the template from shopnchomp.blogspot.com's giveaway a few weeks ago but it took me a while to decide which I wanted for my blog.

Thankyou Lisa and Sharnee! :3

snapshots ~ weekend lunch with Joey, Jickie and Jaqs at Casa Roces

Just a quick update of how my weekend was spent. My internet connection isn't any better so it's been such a pain to go online.

As I said on my last post and on Twitter, I went back to Casa Roces:

Took snap shots of other items in the menu that aren't pictured HERE.:

Crispy Lengua Salad - 145 Php

Baked Vegetables Provencale 340Php

Bouillabaise de la Casa Roces 210Php

Grilled Pork Ribs 235Php

I told the server I wanted to see the 2nd floor of the mansion, so he took me to a tour. The rooms now serve as function halls and can be booked by reservation:

After lunch, we went to the garden to have coffee and chatted:

with first cousin once removed, Jaqs

Baby Bubi and Enky with Jaqs.

I hope all your weekends went well. Have another great week! :)

Update + Question

Hi everyone! I have been kind of busy lately. I wanted to do a post on what happened in my life yesterday but couldn't upload the pictures on Picasa. :(

Anyway, I want to ask you ladies a question are you familiar with the brand Esprique Precious? Has anyone tried it ? I have been eyeing something from them but couldn't quite makeup my mind on it. :/ I think this is their website CLICK. I also wonder if it's available outside Asia...?

Also, I want to ask what's your favorite Asian makeup brand? =) Will be happy if you can let me know. Please don't include Jill Stuart in your answers. ^_^ Thank you! 

Will try to get a post up later. 

REVIEW: Fasio Gradation in I-2, Blog Award & Update

I know - I hardly use eye makeup, but I just couldn't resist getting this one. I just want to do a quick review on this product because I know it deserves a review. However, I am also aware that my review is quite late... Anyway---

Fasio Gradation in I-2

A diagram of how the colors should be used which I did not follow LOL!

The packaging is really simple. 

The packaging reminds me of other Japanese makeup

in the market. :)

Back

The palette comes with a sponge applicator.

Swatches. :)

Again, I know I am terrible at swatching but I try, ok?

Swatches with numbers for reference. xD

I would say that the colors on this palette are not too pigmented but does produce color. The colors are buildable and easy to work with. It is neither creamy nor chalky but are ok. Colors 1-3 are somewhat shimmery/frosted but are not sparkly and do not contain glitter.

The palette is also not expensive, it is a good investment for those who are just starting with makeup.

The only downside I can think of, is that it's not widely available. I purchase this from http://wehaveit43.multiply.com/ - the owner is very nice and even sent me freebies! YAY! xD

FOTN using the eye palette. :)

Yayyyyy!!! I got another blogger award from two lovely ladies

Madiha from obsessiveness 4 makeup and Hollie of Random Beauty 

awarded me with the Versatile Blogger award. Thank you so much

girls! I really appreciate it. Hugs and kisses to the both of you! <3

Sorry for the delayed post, I have been very busy lately. =___=

I remember recently posting 7 random stuff about me which was way too long so I'd make this one shorter: 

1. I am a daddy's girl and proud of it. :)

2. I want to travel to at least one country in all the 7 continents before I die.

3. I was originally left handed but my pre-school teacher forced me to write with my right hand. :(

4.  I always bring candies with me everywhere I go. :p

5. People who try to surprise me end up more surprised at my reaction, because I either do this - O.O or this - O.o or I may instantly slap or hit the person who attempted to surprise me.

6. I am not scared of cockroaches but am terrified of rats.

7. I tend to get creative when I am depressed LOL! xD

I am tagging anyone who wants to do this tag. :3

UPDATE:

I got a new camera. YAYYYY!!!! xD

Test shots

I was told that I had to drain the battery before initial charging 

so I just kept taking pictures of whatever I saw. :)

View from the rooftop.

This is where I live. (:

 Images were resized & watermarked but I didn't edit

the lighting or whatever. 

Giveaway Update- I had to disqualify some entries because they didn't follow rules. The giveaway is only open to Philippines residents but I will try to host another giveaway for my international followers. :3
