This is How I Do It: My Inglot Freedom Palette Look

Happy Friday!!! 
I am looking forward for this weekend but I am definitely NOT resting at all!  There's just so many things to do and there are times I pray I have 2 bodies!  *lol*  Do you feel the same?

Well, I'm busy preparing for a "trip" (will talk more about it when it's finalized) plus...moving out...and Baby Kyle's First Birthday Party!  Wish me luck!  I hope I can manage this!  

I recently blogged about my new Inglot Freedom Palette and I created a simple look using all the products included in my Freedom Palette.  Thanks to my dear reader Theresa for requesting a tutorial on this!  I hope this simple tutorial helps newbies out there! :D

Initial Thoughts: Sleek I-Divine Vintage Romance Palette

Sleek Palettes have always been a hit for me!  I mean for it's price, you get 12 beautiful, very pigmented shades in a very "sleek" packaging!  Perfect for traveling and perfect for makeup artist like myself who likes to bring products that do not take up much space on my train case.

Recently, Sleek came up with a palette called Vintage Romance Palette which I find the palette to be so-me!  Well, I'm romantic and soon to be vintage!  *laughs*  February is coming up!  That's my birthday month!

Thanks Smile from Beautycornerph for sending this palette to me as Christmas Gift!  Who doesn't love makeup as gifts?  (except guys, well, okay, also girls who aren't into makeup!)


I immediately swatched the Vintage Romance Palette and played with some of the shades!  
As you check out the names of this palette, they include the romantic cities in the world which I find very unique and cute!  Not easy to remember, but still..cute! :D

AMW Reviews: Maybelline Lip Polish by ColorSensational

Happy Wednesday!

Okay, I am still sick with crazy, breathtaking (in a negative way) cough but I'm choosing to stay positive today!  There's no point sulking about my cough so I've decided to talk something I'm excited about!  Imagine, a lip product that works like a very pigmented lipstick yet as hydrating as a lip gloss!  Have you found such product?  If not, you're in luck!  I found one!  And the good news is, it won't burn your wallet! :D

Even their packaging is amazing!  Check out how it looks like a lipstick bullet yet it is housed in a lip gloss packaging!  I even had Mr. AMW fooled! He thought this was housed in a lipstick-like packaging.

Burt's Bees Gift Sets

Happy Monday AMW friends! :) How was your weekend?  I rested, as I was sick with cough and cold for more than a week and it is very difficult for me to "try" to stay away from Baby just to make sure he won't catch the bug!

Today, I will be talking about Burt's Bees!  Before I even started blogging, I have always been a loyal customer of the Beauty Bar, I remembered hovering around the Burt's Bees section and purchased skincare sets, lip balms, etc...!  Burt's Bees was even one of the many first brands I blogged about!  (Ex. Lip balms I kissed)

Because of that, my dearest brother, a very generous one, would often purchase me Burt's Bees gift sets!  First one he bought from Canada and this second set he gave me last year was bought in Shanghai!  (Thanks bro!)  I always wonder why other countries have gorgeous sets perfect for gift giving and hoped for us to have one as well! 


Well, my wish was definitely answered!  Burt's Bees Bee Merry Gift boxes are even better looking than the ones I owned in the past!

Weekend Food Trip at: Mesa, Robinsons Magnolia

It's Sunday Everyone and I'm sharing another weekend food trip post to all of you who are into trying out different dishes!

My brother came back home for a short visit over the holidays and we always make sure to have a family get-together at a Filipino restaurant.  Since he likes to go back to Robinson's Magnolia, it was a perfect time for us to choose Mesa!  We had to wait for almost half an hour for our seat as we are in a big group plus there were just so many people at Mesa post-holiday!  Or shall I say, most restaurants at Robinsons Magnolia are always packed! 

When we dine in a Filipino restaurant, there will always be Sisig dish present! 

Sisig With Egg
Php180.00 (approx $4.18)
This is more of a "wet" Sisig, I actually like my sisg crispy and dry!  But this isn't bad at all!


Chicken Pork Adobo Mesa Way
Php185.00 (approx $4.30)
A Filipino favorite of chicken and pork stewed in soy, vinegar and spices.
