Unboxing: BDJ June 2014 Let The Beauty Begin Box (Benefit)

BDJ June 2014 is one of my MOST FAVORITE box of all time!  I mean the March 2014 Secrets of Spy Gal box was amazing and I never thought it could get even better!

For someone who owns a lot of Benefit goodies, I got THIS excited, so I'm sure to those who haven't tried the brand and wanted to try them out..well, here's the best chance!  You get really good amount of samples and they are housed in their original packaging --- miniature version (that's what made it super cute!)

Can't imagine what I'm talking about?  Well, all you have to do is scroll down and click READ MORE!



AMW Reports: H&M Arriving Soon in the Philippines #H&MStudioAW2014

If you love to travel and shop, I'm sure you have, at least, stopped at ONE H&M store!  I can't count how many times I've been to an H&M store when I visit Hong Kong!  From one H&M store to another, I can never leave the store without buying at least a single item!

Word has been going around about the arrival of H&M store in the Philippines but it never happened!  After years of waiting, I finally got the good news!  H&M (Hennes & Mauritz) is really here!  I couldn't believe my eyes until I got an invite to take a peek at their Autumn/Winter 2014 Collection at the Zuellig Building.




AMW Reviews: Clinique Even Better Brightening Moisture Cream Plus

Funny how a blogger friend told me that every time she sees Clinique, she thought of me! 
Awww right?
Well, I can't help it because it all started out with Clinique when I told myself I will start investing on a good skincare regimen!  All thanks to Mr. AMW because he was the one who told me: "Your skin is worth it!  It's okay to spend more as long as the product works for you." 

"Best Husband Award" goes to him!

I may have tried various skincare brands but Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion (DDML) and Clinique Moisture Surge are 2 of my favorite products that I can always go back to (because I have backups!)  So it is difficult for me to "test" other Clinique product as I felt like I was cheating on my loves!  *lol*

Thanks to my Sampleroom family for sending this full sized pot to me and thanks to them because I can't help but test this out because it was just staring right at me on top of the computer table weeks ago!  

I will keep on using this for the coming weeks so I will definitely update this post if there are any changes!  As of now, let me share to you how I feel after "cheating"  *laughs*

*whispers*  It was liberating! :P


Clinique says ---
A moisture-rich and hydrating formula developed specifically for dry/combination skins. This newly reformulated moisturizer has a rich, luxurious texture and can be used year-round to help prevent hyperpigmentation while strengthening the skin barrier and moisturizing the skin both day and night.
Formulated especially for Asian skins, continued use of Even Better Brightening Moisture Cream Plus will diminish the look of dark spots, age spots and hyperpigmentation over time. Appropriate for dry/combination skin, skin will now be better hydrated and radiant all year round. The luxurious and ultra-rich texture of Even Better Brightening Moisture Cream Plus glides onto skin without leaving a sticky residue, easily layerable under other treatments. Recommended for use day and night.

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?
