AMW Reviews: Maybelline New Super Mineral 24 with Perlite 2-Way Cake Foundation

Hi everyone! Hope this day is treating you well.
I'm a powder foundation person and I usually go for BB Cream or CC Cream then powder foundation!  That's why I was really ecstatic when I got the newest Maybelline 2-Way Cake Foundation! 

The packaging is the best that I've seen from Maybelline (in my humble opinion).

Initial Thoughts: The Cream Factory Bath Creams

Happy Monday AMW Friends!
I had a lovely weekend seeing my good friend got married!  Ah, weddings make me happy and I'm glad to witness such happy event!

Today and the rest of February will be very busy for me so my "me" time for now, aside from the time when baby AMW falls asleep will be bath time!  Seriously, I even had to rush myself at times just because I know there are so many things left to do before the day ends!  So when I got The Cream Factory Bath Creams from my Sampleroom family, it was a perfect excuse for me to stay longer inside the shower!  Come on, lathering up goat's milk bath cream is something you wouldn't want to rush doing!

I call this post an "Initial Thoughts" post because I only got to try Goat's Milk & Honey for now.

AMW Version: Valentine's Day Look with L'Oreal Color Riche + Contest





Happy Love Month everyone!
I know some of you are excited for Valentine's day and I'm lying if I say I'm not!  Though married, husband and I make sure to spend quality time together and go out on a date!  That's our secret for keeping "kilig moments" alive no matter how many years we are together!

Valentine's Day is also the perfect excuse to make our self look "extra" good!  With that in mind, I've decided to create quick and simple looks inspired by "kumareng" Jennifer Lopez.  I mean seriously, why her?  She's the total opposite of me, she's got big eyes and a nice tan while I have small eyes and fair skin.  But as I always believe in: "Find inspiration anywhere!"  so I'm choosing her as my Valentine's Day makeup "idol" because this girl looks darn good in any lip color!

The answer is: "Why can't I?" 
Friends or even blog readers probably think I have the BEST life in this world!  Seriously?  I want to believe that but it's not.
