Something New: Bio-Oil

Several months ago when I was pregnant with Baby Kyle, I Tweeted and asked about the most effective anti-stretch mark products in the market and one of the brand that got a lot of votes is called Bio-Oil.  Since I haven't seen the brand anywhere, I went ahead trying different brands of anti-stretch mark creams and oils.  On the latter part of my pregnancy, I met up with fellow-pregnant college friend Charmie and she handed me none other than my very own Bio-Oil!  She hoarded a couple of bottles in Dubai and gave me one telling me how effective this product was on helping her reduce itchiness from skin dehydration, aside from that, Bio-Oil also helped reduce stretch marks and Linea Nigra (A dark vertical line that appears on the abdomen during pregnancy).

Too good to be true?  
Armed with my first Bio-Oil, I gave it a test immediately when I got home.  But, it was on my latter part of pregnancy so I really can't tell if the product did help reduce the appearance of stretch marks but my initial reactions are as follows ---

AMW Reviews: ZA Perfect Action Mascara Smudgeproof

Dear AMW Friends!  It's Friday once again!  Ahhhh I read a quote on Facebook that goes something like this "Thank God It's Friday..Oh Wait, I'm a mom!" so technically, there are no holidays or weekends for us mommies, so kudos to all mommies out there!  Let's give each other a huge HUG!!! :D

I recently attended a bloggers' gathering for ZA's newest products.  One of the ZA's product that caught my attention, aside from the ZA Perfect Fit Two-Way Powder Foundation is their smudge-proof yet easy-to-remove by warm water called ZA Perfect Action Mascara.  I have used this mascara for a couple of weeks (trust me, you just don't know how crazy I am in testing products!  I wear them even at home!  lol).  Today, finallyI'm ready to share my review on my first ZA mascara!

AMW Reviews: Sleek Gloss Me and Matte Me

Hi AMW Friends!  Are you enjoying the week so far?  I hope so!
Today, I am so excited to share to you a review of 2 unique glosses that I received from Smile of Updated Trends.  Seriously, how many lipglosses can a girl have?  Unlimited?  

Not for me, I'm really not a fan of gloss, I don't know why but I find them too....sheer?  And they seldom last on me especially when I take a sip or 2 of my favorite drink!  (I'm sure you know by now that my drink of choice is Coffee!) :P

Sleek Makeup, an inexpensive, yet good quality makeup brand came up with 2 types of lipglosses called Gloss Me and Matte Me.  The name sounds so cute right?

Check out if the product itself will entice me!

AMW Reports: MAC Indulge Collection

Happy Tuesday AMW Friends!  I hope our Manila-based readers are safe from the strong rain yesterday! 

Today, I will be sharing a report on the recent MAC event I attended a couple of weeks ago for MAC Indulge Collection for Fall 2013.  This collection was launched in the US around August and the rest of the countries like the Philippines had to wait for September (almost October) for the collection to finally arrive!


It is worth the wait!
Though the newest collection from MAC is not meant for my Bridal Clients, BUT, after seeing the collection in person, I have a couple of favorites!  I'll tell you which ones later on!
