How To: Create Bigger Looking Eyes in a Subtle Manner




You see something different in my photo below?

Well, my right eye (left eye facing you) looks more defined...and bigger!
I'm tired of seeing "How to Achieve Bigger eyes" but when you click on the tutorial, you see heavily done eye makeup --- from dark smokey eyes, dramatic lashes and very thick eyeliner!  That's why the queen of "I want to look natural" is finally creating a Photo-torial for fellow natural beauty lovers out there...in less than 5 EASY steps!

Benefit's Roller Lash Mascara (aka the #MysteryMascaraPH) Review





I received a #MysteryMascaraPH 2 weeks ago.  A beauty company literally sends out "nameless" mascaras for Beauty Bloggers to test?  I am definitely up for that!  I have the world's most boring lashes!  Short, sparse and stick straight!

For the First Time, I Love This Tint on My Lips



Happy Monday loves!
Just in time for Valentine's season, I am sharing a FOTD wearing all RED!  Red cheeks and red lips!  And yes, you can manage that with minimal makeup on the rest of your face!

Last year, I was able to get this Tony Tint Cat Chu product from a Blogger friend, I immediately thought this will work exactly the same as most lip & cheek tints --- subtle and probably, will love this more on my cheeks instead of lips!  (as it happens on most of my lip & cheek duos)

Check out my photo below, I was IN LOVE with Tony Tint Cat Chu in 02 Red on my lips!  But keep in mind that this color is not for the faint-hearted, you got to be a red lipstick lover for you to be able to go out of the house with this super red shade!


I'm not sure if this product comes with a box, but this was sealed with a transparent wrap.  Take a peek at the cute "cat" design on the packaging.

Unboxing: January/February 2015 BDJ Kawaii




I should stop myself from saying "This is my favorite BDJ Box!"  Because you'll find me saying that probably to EVERY subscription! 


This January/February 2015 Exclusive Box is no exception!  Called the Kawaii Must-Haves, the products included comes from brands Bifesta, Lucido-L, Pixy and Sunkiller (All from Mandom Corporation).  Here, you'll fine sun protection products, haircare and hair protection, Eyeshadow, Blush, face powder and a makeup remover!  I guess, what's lacking is a lipstick and your look is definitely complete with just ONE box.

AMW Cooks: BBQ'd Pork ala Racks

I feel so bad I missed the Racks "Best Ribs in Town" event because of my "no yaya for more than a month".  Yes!  Great news, I finally found one!  Still praying she is going to be a good one! 

So back to my story, I can't seem to leave home and I don't mind staying with my li'l active Kyle!  If you follow me on Instagram, I don't post as much food photos that I cook because I just don't have the time!  But when my mom-in-law was available to help me look out for Kyle even for a couple of hours or minutes!  I can't help but rush into the kitchen to prepare a simple dish!  Yes, I love cooking and I actually missed it a lot!

Thanks to ARC PR friends for sending me 2 bottles of Rack's famous Barbeque Sauce, one in Original and another one in HOT!  It was a perfect timing as having a good BBQ sauce in the kitchen can help save a family of hungry tummies looking for home-cooked meals!  

You can do this on a Pork or chicken and I actually just did a chicken version over the weekend!


Ingredients:
  • Garlic
  • Pepper and Salt
  • Racks Original BBQ Sauce or any BBQ marinade
  • Pork (Lomo, Liempo or Butterfly) whatever you have in the kitchen
