Askmewhats Version: "L'oreal Hip Sassy" look

When I did a review on my first L'oreal HIP e/s duo, Nabi , Alyssa, Lizlin commented on wanting to see how the L'oreal HIP e/s duo would look. To the sweet ladies and the rest of the readers who are interested, this one's for you :D

It is honestly difficult as I said in my review as seen here, because the colors that are together aren't that "matched" (in my opinion). I would usually use this separately with something else, something bright as using the 2 shades together is a bit too dark for me. But for the sake of review and to show the color combination of these, I've used both together and added a bit of "gold" to brighten up everything :D Hope you guys like it.


This is what L'oreal Sassy looks like



A close-up shot
L-color is used all over my lids
R-color (bluish) was applied on the outer crease going in
BLEND BLEND BLEND!
R-color (bluish) was also lined below my eyes
I pat on Milani Sun Goddess on my lids just to brighten up the overall look





And here's me saying....



Additional products used ---

Stila Smudgepots in Black
Paul & Joe Curly Mascara in Black
Revlon blush in Rose
The Face Shop Lip gloss



Want your own L'oreal HIP e/s duo?
Can't have 'em like me?
Let's all write a letter to L'oreal!!!
Beauty addicts, UNITE! *lol*

Weekend Food Tripping at: Korean Village

Remember I told you guys that I will tell you about my ultimate favorite Korean Restaurant ever? Here it is!!! This is not only my favorite, but my husband's fave and also...the favorite Korean restaurant of my mom and dad in-laws! They actually dated here when they were still young (Can you just imagine how many years this restaurant has been operating?)

This is a family affair so we have more food ordered!!! Enjoy the gastronomic photos! Just typing this post made me hungry over and over again!






Here goes the food posts....I do apologize for the ugly appetizer photos!
We came in late and it was left this way LOL



The famous Korean Fried Rice, yummy!
I like it that they have loads of veggies, chicken bits



Barbeque Chicken! You can order Pork or Beef
We had 2 orders of chicken!
Boy I love chicken! (but I can't eat too much, allergies) lol



Here's the cooked bbq chicken
Can eat as it is but we ordered Lettuce(not on pix, sorry forgot)
Their lettuce are the freshest ever!



We were told this is their new dish
The Asparagus Mushroom



Beef Stew (Korean Styled) yummmm



My hubby's ever favorite Chicken & Mushroom



Cold Soba Noodle
I love the taste of cucumber, you eat this by dipping the noodles in an ice cold water
(as seen on the black bowl beside the noodle)



Can you believe this that everything we ate costs only Php 1,560.00? (approx $36.00)
We are so full and happy!
I am hoping my kids will be able to eat in this restaurant
and they'll be blogging about their "parents" and "grandparents" having a date in this resto :D

The Paul & Joe Protective Foundation Collection Launch

I am seriously a P&J addict, and this is not a good addiction!
You know why? P&J is honestly very expensive!

But don't get me wrong, I am buying what I know works for me and works for most of the people I put make-up on. I swear on Paul & Joe foundations as they are indeed made for Asian Skin.
I have used their Creamy Foundation to the Moisturizing Cream Compact Foundation to their Powder Foundation and I love them all! They have coverage but you looked so fresh and natural afterwards. I can't seem to stop saying good stuffs about them.

When they messaged me regarding this launch/event, my hubby knew how much I wanted to stock on their foundies so he drove me all the way to Rustan's Makati for this event. The event started at 4PM but we were late, due to traffic and it took us almost 30 minutes to look for a parking space! Anyways, I am still happy I was there and nice to see the lovely Brand Manager of P&J Raizelle and the lovely staffs of P&J who made me feel at home! I wish I have the whole P&J counter at HOME! *wish wish wish*

We have tables, we have mini cupcakes served and we have the new P&J Protective Foundation and Primer on the table for people to test on. What I love about this new collection is that it has more moisturizing properties and they still have sunscreen!




We had this BINGO game, Ms. Raizelle (the one in Pink) was the one who hosted the game.
I ALMOST won!!! Darn! I didn't !!!! lol


** on the side note, those who want to see my hair? LOL
that's me in green nearest to the camera

Let me show you my super mini haul!
Like I said, I am focused on buying what I need
as I still have whatever I bought from P&J from the past.
Here's my mini haul (yes, I am a good girl, I stopped myself from buying a lot!)


** L-R Eau de Toilette (Freebie)
P&J Dual Foundation UV Php2,150.00 (approx $49.00)
P&J Protective Foundation Primer UV Php1,650.00 (approx $38.00)


They also gave us discount coupons for us to have some freebies/discounts when we return




After shopping, I had to have something to drink! lol It's been sometime since I last had a shake. I ordered Mango, Banana and Apple shake from the Juice Avenue.
Look at what's written on the cup, so cute!




**Yup, I'm wearing the new P&J Protective Foundation! I love it!


I swear on P&J foundation
I also love my MAC Studio Fix

What's your HG foundation?

Happy weekend!
