Gift Ideas: For Your Wife, Mom, Sister and Bestfriend

It was funny when I told Mr. AMW I will attend a Swarovski Jewelry event, and he went: "Oh, they have jewelries?"  And I answered: "Tsk, you're sooo out of date and clueless!".

Then, I received an email showcasing the Holiday 2014 Collection of the Swarovski Watches, okay, I'm clueless too!  I didn't know Swarovski, the brand, makes time pieces and guess what?  They are beyond fashionable, they look classy, stylish with a substance! 

Le Sigh!

Nivea Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes Review

Whenever I'm out for an event or a makeup gig, here's the scenario ---

I drive as fast as I can to go back to Toddler AMW, then, upon arriving, I pick him up, bring him to the room with me as I change and wash my face and hands!  

At the back of my head, I thought: "Mapapasma ako nito ng wala sa oras" (driving at least 2-3 hours per way), but who cares?  Rather than having my sun rub his cute li'l face against my "made up", never mind the sacrifices! 

And recently, I chanced upon Nivea Daily Essentials Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes meant for Dry and Sensitive skin.  I had to grab a pack and test it out!  I have tried so many makeup removing wipes and so far, only a few passed my standards!

These wipes are said to cleanse, tone and hydrate as it removes make up AND waterproof mascara!  Most wipes give me the eye string but it was printed on the packaging: "Suitable for Sensitive eyes".  So yes, that got me super excited!

GirlStuff Holiday 2014 Collection Made Me Extra Happy!

I am definitely singing the tune of: "I'm so excited!  And I just can't hide it!" 

Okay, readers who love the 80's music are probably singing along with me.  If you had this "HUH" look?  Okay, you're too young!  I know, please, no need to rub it in!  #Bitter :P

Yes, I got so excited when I received my GirlStuff Holiday 2014 Collection.  Long time AMW readers, who witnessed my weekly nail art tutorials probably saw me use the GirlStuff polishes even way back before they have their own kiosks!  (Check out some of my nail art tutorials using GirlStuff Nail Polishes HERE).  Okay, you don't see a lot in the link I showed you because I failed to "tag" the nail polishes brands on my past nail art tutorials!  So yes, you can only see the recent ones! 

Here's my first Yum Yum Holiday Nails all thanks to GirlStuff Polish in Pink (as base) topped with Confetti Polish in I (heart) U.

Yes girls, you are probably scared to do nail art because you just have wobbly hands!  Fear no more!  With the Confetti Collection, you can do your own nail art in minutes!  Just top off your favorite nail polish base shades with the new Confetti Collection.

Cover Girl + Olay Concealer Balm (Medium) Review

Covergirl, ah, the brand that brought me back to so much memories!  Some would say Maybelilne or L'Oreal, but for me, it was Covergirl that started it all!  (Thanks to the friendly SA years ago at SM Sta. Mesa branch)

Now I have to admit, I haven't tried any of their concealers and I never even thought they have one!  Not until when I ran out of my favorite "stick concealer" from Revlon, I was on the lookout for a similar "lipstick" type of concealer and found this!
