What can I say about this? read on!

Available at Paul & Joe Rustan's Makati for Php 1,375 (approx USD32.00)

** Here's my before and after shot, both with eyeliner

Askmewhats says ---

Pros

• Does its job curling
• does not clump
• doesn't smudge (waterproof)

Cons

• expensive
• doesn't lenghten

Overall

I haven't found my HG mascara yet but this is one mascara I am comfortable and always reach out to. I have to say with my "type" of lashes, I can only settle down to falsies as my lashes are super short and invisible! I am honestly lazy to put on mascara as I don't like rubbing my eyes with eye makeup remover (due to my eye allergies before). I usually put on mascara on days that I feel like it.

Will I repurchase?
Yes

These are the 3 brands I rotate, I would love to try on other brands!
Any suggestions?
I'm thinking about Cover Girl Lash Blast? Yay or Nay?

Askmewhats Reviews: Carmex Lip Balm

** Available at PCX for approx Php85.00 ($2.00)

I know a lot of readers out there LOVE their Carmex Lip Balm. I bid goodbye to my Kiehl's No. 1 lipbalm for a couple of weeks to give this baby a "proper" review. I've used this every morning, middle of the day and night time.

What do I have to say about this ?

Well, it's so so. I wouldn't go crazy jumping up and down for this product. I road tested this on my hubby as well (for guy's point of view --- yeah! guys do use lip balm as well...well..if they have wives like me LOL)

Askmewhats says ---

Pros

• affordable
• very minty (for this mint version), this minty feeling lasts longer than regular minty balms
• tastes ok, not yucky
• soothing (as stated)
  

Cons

• the balm is a bit dry
• It dries my hubby's lips more than him not using a lip balm at all
• Doesn't "heal" as written in their box
  

Overall?

It could just be me, that I have super dry lips that needs extra TLC, but this product could be great for those born with lovely lips! For extra dry lips like mine, move on and give other lip balms a try!

Will I repurchase?

Sorry...but NO


I know I know! It's my fault!
I have lip products that works for me
Why do I need to try on others?
Like I said, it's the curiosity in me..
and curiosity does kill your budget!

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
