AMW Reviews: Hayan Aqua Mineral Facial Mist


Happy Tuesday!  Today, I will be reviewing the newest Korean Cosmetics brand that hit the local market --- Hayan Cosmetics. 

If you're a fan of blog reading, you've probably heard or seen the brand from various blogs that you follow as the company is quite forward in terms of sending out products to various beauty bloggers for review.  I'm one of the blogger the company went up to and they're quite confident to let their products go through watchful eyes of OC beauty bloggers!  

The first Hayan product that caught my interest is the Aqua Mineral Facial Mist! 

I've always been a fan of moisturizing spritz as it does not only help hydrate my skin within the day, it's also a wonderful tool to help "set" your makeup.

Something New: Clinique A Different Nail Enamel

Just when I thought we have it all!  We don't!  I didn't know there is a specific polish meant for sensitive skin!  I mean how sensitive a person could get?  Very!  I have a friendly who's very sensitive with her shampoo choices and can't even wear makeup!  Of course, let's remove nail polishes off the list as well!  But today, I'm happily texting my friend as Clinique (my favorite brand for sensitive skin) unveils A Different Nail Enamel for Sensitive Skins

Shades: Call My Buff, 70 and Sunny, Summer in the City, Splish Splash, Hula Skirt, Fizzy, Sweet Tooth and Red Red Red

Readers' Corner: Which Benefit Product to Start With?

Happy start of the week AMW Friends!  
Today I will be answering yet another most asked question for AMW!  I have received emails after emails asking me which Benefit product they should start saving up for.  

First of all, I want to clarify that I work for several Benefit project as a freelance makeup artist and trainer, I am so happy the brand trusted my talent so much to let me handle such projects!  But before I was able to do so, I have to admit that I am not that familiar with all Benefit products so I had to study each product's usage and benefits online and requested to try out their testers just to familiarize myself with the brand and products.  



So yes, after several workshops and a photoshoot, I am proud to say I am quite knowledgeable with "almost" all Benefit products that's why it took me until today to finally answer the most asked "Benefit-related" query.

Weekend Food Trip at: Suzhou Dimsum, Mandaluyong Branch

The first time I visited Suzhou Dimsum was because of a strong craving for good Xiao Long Bao here in Manila.  Mr. AMW and I tried the best Xiao Long Bao in Shanghai City so we thought it would be more feasible to look for a favorite locally!  Feel free to check out our first Suzhou Dimsum experience at Robinson's Otis Branch.

It wasn't a bad experience so this time, we've decided to visit the restaurant again, at San Juan branch with my mom as we were just craving for Xiao Long Bao when we passed by the restaurant.

Special Xiao Long Bao
Php110.00 (approx $2.75)
Steamed mini pork buns with a good amount of sauce inside.  I like how tasty it is.
