AMW Bulletin: Thanks Unilever for Grooming our Future-Ready Teens!

I posted about #TeenWeek 2 weeks ago and some of you agreed with me on how we wish we have these types of activities during our teens!  Because I'm not a teen anymore (but feeling teen) :P  I'm more than willing to share what our dear friends from Unilever have in store for our future-ready teens as I know I have some "bagets" readers out there!  *high five!*

Just in case you forgot what #TeenWeek is all about, it is a nationwide week-long program initiated by Unilever Philippines' top brands Pond's, Cream Silk and Rexona.  They aim to develop 1 million teens to be more confident and future-ready!  (I am hoping for more than 1 million!) 

Why?

AMW Reviews: Clinique Chubby Stick Intense in Plushest Punch

Happy Monday AMW Friends!
Wow, I can't believe September is almost over and October is coming!  October is my favorite month!  Aside from it's the fact that I have a week holiday from work, it is also our wedding anniversary month!  So we're on to 6th year anniversary soon! :) YAY!

Since we're talking about anniversary and special events, I'd love to share a review on Clinique's newest Chubby Stick called Chubby Stick Intense!  When they labeled this cute crayon-like packaging with the term INTENSE, they really mean it....down to the bones!


The shade I got to try is called Plushest Punch.   
Plushest Punch is described as Raspberry Pink.

Clinique says ---
Tempt lips with a soft cushion of colour that's not quite sheer, not quite opaque-just the perfect happy medium. Loaded with mango and shea butters so lips feel comfortably soft and smooth. Eight vibrant shades in all.

Weekend Food Trip at: King Chef Fine Dining

Before I attended the launch of King Chef Fine Dining 2 years ago, I knew about the restaurant way back and dined at their restaurant during Soft Opening .

Several years after, our family still enjoyed visiting the restaurant as aside from the good location, the restaurant itself is spacious, clean and the servers are always attentive to our needs!

It was my brother's birthday and we've decided to have a simple dinner at King Chef Fine Dining!  

King's Special Crabroe Soup
Small Php320.00 (approx $7.30)

Something New: Lancome Visionnaire Yeux

Hi AMW Friends!
It's Saturday!  Finally, I have a day "off"!  Well, not from being a mom but from all the work-related activities!  I've been out a lot this week and missing my baby so much so I'm definitely bonding with Baby Kyle over the weekend.

Let's talk about skincare, since I have baby AMW with me like a tiny kangaroo inside my "pouch" (translation: I carry him most of the time), I make sure to use "safe" skincare products so I haven't really been taking care of my skin lately!  Now that Baby AMW is growing at 5 months old, I'm getting back to my skincare routine and that MUST include the eye product!  I have used moisturizers again but have skipped eye products so I can definitely see some under eye darkness and puffiness appearing! 

There is something new for me to try from Lancome called Visionnaire Yeux.... I have just started using this product so I can share to you for now is my initial review.

AMW Makeovers: Bea and Claire

Happy Friday!
I am so excited to share another AMW Makeover post, I  haven't done a makeover posts for quite some time but now, I'm back with a vengeance!  I am very thankful that I still get clients even if I was "on leave" for several months after giving birth!  

I got a text message from my dear friend who's currently the Brand Manager of Silka, she asked me to do her makeup on the company's anniversary party!  Who am I to say no?  She has been very supportive of my makeup artistry and I can clearly remember the times I practice my makeup skills on her!  

It has been several years after so I'm really excited to prettify her again!

Bea has always been on a "safe side" in terms of eye shadow shades, it has always been golds and browns so that day, I suggested she gets out of her shell and try on something different, something she doesn't sport much and it's definitely a smokey eye makeup! 


Thankfully, Bea felt the same about the change and gamely asked me to do whatever I think would work for her!  It was a night event so a smoky eye makeup is perfect!
