AMW x Benefit Give: Benefit They're Real Push-Up Liner and Makeup Remover

The buzz has been going around on how wonderful Benefit They're Real Push-Up Liner is!  Some of you probably bought one and agreed but most of you are still wonderful, saving up, and hoping someone may gift them this as Christmas Gift!

Well....1 person may get the chance to try this for free!  Together with They're Real Remover (that works so well for the Push-Up Liner) and what else?  A very cute Benefit Pouch!

Excited?

Not so?
Here's the better view of what you may win!  The liner itself is AMAZING!  You can read my quick review HERE.  This liner is close to my heart because I was one of the FIRST few makeup artists who get to know about the product last March 2014 during its launch in San Francisco.  Aside from that,  I went around Benefit Counters to conduct 9 WORKSHOPS! YES, 9!!!  To share to fellow liner enthusiasts how amazing this liner is and why they should include this in their "liner arsenal"!

Still not amazed?  Well, you better try one over the counter OR, better yet...join this contest and try to win this cute set!

AMW Reviews: Ellana Minerals Strawberry Vanilla Lip Scrub

Good morning AMW friends!
Thanks to Glamourbox for including this in last month's Flawless Beauty box!  True enough, flawless doesn't only talk about the skin, I for one has issues with my very dry lips so I guess, to help us look "flawless", our lips should be moisturized as well!  

I was so excited to give this a test because I am definitely the winner on "Most Dry Lipped Blogger" (aminado!)  but don't get me wrong, I am definitely doing EVERYTHING I can to fix that!  And that includes trying out Ellana Minerals' Strawberry Vanilla Lip Scrub!

Ellana says ---
For a perfectly polished pout, use our sweet-smelling Strawberry Vanilla Lip Scrub to regularly exfoliate your lips!

Size: 10g
Ingredients: Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride,Polyamino, Sugar Condensate Dipentaerythrityl Hexahydroxystearate/Hexastearate/Hexarosinate, Isononyl Isononanoate Butyrospermum parkii Cera Alba Tocopherol Acetate Mica Silicone Dioxide Fragaria ananassa D&C 8 CI 45350 Vanilla planifolia

AMW Reports: All Things Hair (ATH)

Did you started out watching makeup tutorials or hair tutorials?

I have to admit, I went for hair tutorials first, because I did share the story about my love/hate affair with my hair in my past blog post right?  

I am one hell of a hair girl!  I like creating different hairstyles and I was able to do this hairstyle for an important Nuffnang event (NAPBAS 2011) 3 years ago in Malaysia.

Yes, sariling kulot, sariling "tease" and sariling ponytail....in less than 5 minutes!  On the side note, I just realized, this was the memorable trip that brought me closer to my dear blogger friend Lush Angel! :)

L-R Patty Laurel-Filart, Me and Angela Nepomuceno

As much as I enjoy the international hair tutorials, I dislike the fact that sometimes, they use specific hair styling products that aren't available locally, or, they have different hair texture and color that sometimes, their tips won't matter for us Filipinas.

 Last September 18, I was invited to a launch called ATH All Things Hair.  I told myself I won't miss this event because I am one HAIR Addict and aside from that, one of my very good friend is part of this!  You got it!  Angela is one hair guru and you have to watch her tutorials (and the rest of the ambassadors), I learned so much from them!

During the launch, Joey Mead, the night's gorgeous host, interviewed Thomas Poulain of Google Philippines.  We were told that every thousands of Filipinos search for hair tips, tutorials, styles and inspirations, that is why Unilever thought of addressing these issues by collaborating with the world's Top Vloggers and hair brands to form an online destination for hair solutions and inspirations.

AMW Reviews: Etude House Lovely Cookie Blusher

When I went to SM North EDSA 2 weeks ago for a quick Meet and Greet with Cover Girl Philippines during the BDJ Camp Gorgeous, I dropped by Etude House store to check out what's new.  I saw cute blushes called Lovely Cookie Blusher and I realized, I have 1 at home which was a "trade in" between me and a friend.  The particular shade Carrot Cheesecake is from 2012 Collection but upon checking their website, it is still available in store (and there are more shades to choose from!) so feel free to pick one up or swatch in store and tell me your thoughts.

AMW no makeup except Carrot Cheesecake blush applied on key areas of the face (cheeks, forehead and chin)

The packaging reminds me so much of a cute macaroon.
