Mama Chow's Lactation Goodies + Surprise from Ford Philippines

Happy Sunday dear friends!  Today, I will be sharing a wonderful yummy find for moms who are nursing!  When I posted a photo of my expressed breast milk, Jayvee (another blogger) commented on trying out lactation cookies.  I nearly laughed as I thought he was just inventing it!  But of course, he wasn't joking at all as there is such thing called Lactation brownies, cheese cupcakes and cookies!

I agree with them!  Tastes fresh from the oven eventhough it was delivered via local courier.

Something New: K-Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner --- POWER UP!

December of 2011, I blogged about K-Palette's 24H Real Lasting Eyeliner Waterproof HERE (wow, I didn't realize it has been more than a year ago!) and I still swear by this liquid liner until this day!  (Read my Readers' Corner post on Must Try Liquid Liners).

This liner is approved by yours truly that I even highly recommend these to clients! Recently, I saw their newest ad, K-Palette 24 Hours Real Lasting Eyeliners with addition of 3 beauty essences aside from the usual long lasting, instant drying and super fine brush that won my heart!

I'm glad to try these 2 out (one in black and one in brown)!  To be honest, I don't need to ask for anything more for the old 1 Day Tattoo liner but 3 additional beauty essences is definitely a huge plus!  Want to know more?

AMW Reviews: L'Oreal Color Riche Intense Color Nourishing Care Lip Colors

Happy Friday AMW friends!  Who's excited for the weekend?  What are your plans?

I seriously have no plans at all as my schedule really depends on Baby AMW's mood!  *laughs*  All I know for sure is that I'll be taking Baby Kyle to visit my mom and dad as he's growing up so fast I want my parents to keep track on his different stages! 

Anyways, I will be sharing a review today on my favorite drugstore lipstick for the moment!  I can't believe I have these way back gifted to me by my Aunt from Canada but I ended up using them on clients and never tried them myself!  Now that was given the chance to try these again, all I can say is WOW!  Please scroll further down for more details about this wonderful lip product!

L'Oreal Color Riche Intense Color Moisturizing Care Lip Color are housed in a gorgeous gold box with Japanese characters.

Readers' Corner: What to Pack (Make Up Artist Edition)

Happy Thursday AMW friends! Are you in a good mood today?  I hope so as I don't like people frowning as they read my blog!  People beside you might have this crazy idea that reading AskMeWhats gives you stress!  Well, I can, if you like me too!  *evil laugh* :P

To future makeup artists and to my lovely readers interested for makeup artistry who requested me to share what I pack for makeup gigs, Halleluiah!!! I finally got the time to finally answer this most requested "Readers' Corner" topic.

As much as I wanted this post to be as organize as I'd like it to be, I apologize if it isn't as my life has been upside down (in a very good way) since Baby AMW came along!  So bear with me :)

The Basic Needs

MAC Fix+ - I love setting my clients' make up with MAC Fix+, it does not only "set" the makeup but it refreshed the client after 30minutes to an hour of prettifying session.

Bench Pure Mist Facial Water - the inexpensive version of Evian, I like using this to spritz and refresh the client prior to makeup application.

Parian Spirit Brush Cleaner - I use this to clean brushes in between clients.  Quick drying and smells wonderful!

Kleenex - I carry loads of these!  This also helps when the bride gets sentimental and starts to cry.

There's more!

AMW Reviews: Maybelline Hyper Glossy Runway Pop Liquid Liners

It's mid-week everyone!  I don't know about you but my energy is quite low considering it's just Wednesday! You can't blame me though, it's exactly 2 months of sleepless nights and lots of breastfeeding!  Again, don't get me wrong, I enjoy every special moment spent with Baby AMW and I just want to say --- staring and looking at a baby for hours is possible!

Single readers out there, I am so sorry for gushing so much about Baby AMW!  I can't help it! 

Anyways, back to makeup!  I haven't been playing with colorful makeup nowadays as I try to wear as minimal makeup as possible as I don't want to rub my made-up face to baby's sensitive skin!  So imagine, nothing much on face and lips so that leaves me like a zombie!  Thankfully, I pulled out my colorful liquid liners from Maybelline, this was released around April (I think) perfect for summer!  I have used all 3 shades (not all together) and I'll share to you  my favorite after the review!
