AMW Reviews: Tory Burch Lipstick in Swizzle

A review on Tory Burch Lipstick?
Yes!  The seriously have makeup lines available in the local market!  Tory Burch may be known for fashion, but Tory is definitely serious even with makeup! 

12 shades of Tory Burch Lipsticks arrived in the Philippines and I got my hands on one of my favorite shade called Swizzle!


Housed in a gorgeous Tory Burch signature colored packaging with a nice logo printed at the tip of the lippie!



Tory Burch says ---
Tory Burch loves color — and has created 12 distinctive shades, each designed to flatter a variety of skin tones. Extending from the original signature lip color, Pas du Tout, the collection ranges from tomboy neutrals to feminine pinks and bold brights. This modern formula represents the ideal balance of sheer yet vivid color and rich texture with a weightless finish. Encased in gold and orange fretwork — it’s a super-chic accessory in itself.

Notes: The lip color is subtly scented with notes from the Tory Burch fragrance — cassis, grapefruit and mandarin.

Size: 0.11oz/ 3g

AMW Reports: WSI Opens in Manila



(Article updated on August 15, 2018)

Who loves watches?
I do!  I really do!  I can't survive a day without wearing one!  Once, in college, I forgot to wear my watch for the whole day, I felt so "naked" and uneasy I kept on looking at my wrist for time!  

As I grew older, my watch collection grew bigger, most of the watches I own are gifts from my husband (mostly from him!) and my brother!  They knew the best gift for me is the gift of Time --- I am one punctual girl and I'm crazy with my schedules! 

And who can imagine how "Watch Shopping" can get any better?  

Since the arrival of WSI (Watch Style Insider).  I recently attended the launch of the first WSI store located at SM Megamall.  WSI is a new retail "destination" where Watch Style is everything, WSI is the latest multi-brand retail concept from Fossil Group.  

Here is a watch-heaven where you can find latest watch styles by the world's most loved brands in ONE store.  You don't believe me?  You better do!  I have proofs!

How to Get Energy and Good Skin

Before I gave birth to Kyle, I was known as the #energizerbunny, I never get tired and you'll always see me in my hyper self!  A reader once commented telling me how "perky" I was online and he/she doubts I'm the same in person.


Well, he/she is probably right, I am definitely not the same in person.  Because online, I am more toned down, I am definitely perkier and more hyper in person!  People who have met me in person can vouch to that!

AMW Reviews: Heroine Make Smooth Cover Powder Mineral (02)

Hi AMW Friends!
Heroine Make, aside from the fact that these are Japanese made cosmetics, they definitely got me at "hello cute packaging!" 

I have Heroine Make products for review on top of my "to review" table for quite some time but I was just too busy reviewing other makeup bases I gave this a pass for weeks!  Once I've decided to pick this up...I was blown away!  Let me tell you why...



Housed in a simple black packaging, the name Heroine Make Smooth Cover Powder seems to be just like any regular powders ---- I'm a powder foundation girl so I thought this won't pass up my high expectations!
