Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Shine Lipstick (Charmed) Review

Who can say they have enough lipstick and won't purchase until next year?

*shudders*  NOT ME!

Not because I'm a makeup artist, but I'm a strong believer of how every girl should own a good number of lipstick because you can easily change the way you look in just a couple of swipes and you don't need to be a professional to do so!

I was very conservative with my lipstick history!  I started out with the usual lip balm (CHAPSTICK!!!!)  to flavored lip balm (CHAPSTICK!!!!) then graduated to tinted lip balm (MAYBELLINE!!!) then finally lipstick (AIDO/FASHION 21!!!!)  

Now that I'm *ahem* mature, I think I have the right to sport bright red, pink or orange lips!  Yes, I used to be super shy applying my lipstick heaviily as I come from a family wherein lipstick wearers are...ahmm...MAARTE!  So now that I have the chance, I try as many as I want!  So lucky you as today's generation is more open with lipstick wearing!  Are you bored with my lipstick wearing history?  (haba ng intro ko kasi, sorry)

So anyway, the point of my story ...well there's no point!  I just want to talk about lipstick because I'm sharing a review on Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Shine Lipstick and I want to make this post as interesting as possible or else your eyes are drifting down to the Pros and Cons and leave me in the cold!  :P  (drama ba?)

Sige na, ito na!

AskMeMom: Baby Sebamed Review

Hi fellow mommies!
When it comes to your little angel, you probably tried as much skincare products as I did!  Well, I didn't go overboard this time as I make sure to finish one product before I go to the next (as opposed to testing out makeup) and one brand that I got to really try and trust is Baby Sebamed.

Let me talk about the brand, I first heard about SEBAMED and tried their Feminine Wash (my favorite!  I actually finished the bottle recently and repurchased!) and their Shampoo and Conditioner didn't fail as I gave it to my sister and she told me she used it on her son (who has sensitive scalp) and works really well on him! 

Then I learned they have Baby Sebamed which excites me as I just gave birth to Kyle Nash when I got samples of their Baby Bubble Bath.

Then I got Baby Sebamed not only as press samples but as gifts during Kyle's birthday party!  If you're a mommy, you have to agree with me when I say: "Nothing beats the excitement a mom gets when she receives a gift for her baby!"  RIGHT?  RIGHT!  *high five*

First set of gift

I guess I got them all huh?

Come Shop With Me at Uno De 50

Imagine yourself trapped in a store with hundreds of pieces of unique hand-crafted accessories!

I don't have to imagine!  It happened to me when I visited the store opening of Uno De 50 at SM Mall of Asia!  Posing with an Uno De 50 girl with a huge lock is perfect as I don't mind being "locked up" inside the store and I bet you'll feel the same just by browsing through my amateur photos!  It just shows how pretty all the items were even without creative shots!  

They are as pretty as they look on photos...no, I'm wrong..they look even better in person!  Mark my words!

Uno De 50 store in SM Mall Of Asia.  First day of opening last June 11th.

Initial Thoughts: Virginia Olsen Products

Happy Monday AMW Friends!
Today, I will talk about a mineral makeup brand called Virginia Olsen Minerals.  The brand isn't new to me as I heard about it for quite some time but it is only now I get to try the products!  I'm sure there are loyal V.O. Minerals users out there so do share to me your favorite items for me to check it out okay?

Here are my Virginia Olsen Minerals Loot!  I'm most excited to try their Eye Prime (one of the newest addition to their product line) and their HD Mineral Mattifying Base.  But of course, after reading raves about their eyeshadows, I  now understand why they are well-loved!

Initial thoughts on ---

• HD Mineral Mattifying Base
• Eye Prime
• Mineral Eye Shadows in Lilac and Goldstone
• Pure Organic Lip Glosses in 01 and 03

Happy Father's Day and Thanks Le Coeur de France

Back when I still work in a "visible" office at Ortigas.  I used to walk to Shangri-la Mall before I go home to buy something for my family!  It always have to be food! 

With my not-so-big salary, I told myself I don't have to break the bank just to make my family happy!  One of my favorite to-go-to take out place is Le Coeur de France!  They usually have certain percentage off on breads and pastries so it was a smart move for me to show how much I love and appreciate my family!  Yes, we weren't that vocal back then so I use food to show how much I love them!

When I received a "bread basket" from Le Coeur de France just in time for Father's Day celebration, it puts a huge smile on my face as I have been doing this for YEARS (up until present).

With my favorite bread from Le Coeur de France!  Oh....perfect with their hot cup of coffee!
