Prints Made Pretty Glisten Up Strobing KIT Review

So Happy Skin and leading clothing brand Plains & Prints collaborated for a limited edition KIT!  I got my hands on the kit and was able to use it on my face in less than 3 minutes!

Highlighter all over face and Blush on cheeks and lips!

The blush stick isn't meant for lips but I just want to maximize each product usage and so far, I'm loving the look!

Do You Need A Primer/Lip Concealer?

As soon as I saw the Tony Moly Primer Lip Concealer in their store, I immediately put it in my shopping basket without thinking twice!  I always have dark pigmented lips and I have mentioned so many times on my blog how I use foundation or concealer in concealing lip pigment when I wear lighter shades of lipsticks.  Now, if there is such product that is made specifically to "prime" and "conceal" the lips, I definitely have to give this a try and see if this is worth the investment or I can go back to my foundation/concealer technique.

Weekend Food Trip at: SumoSam Shangri-La Plaza Mall

Happy Sunday everyone!  So, I've finally gotten the chance to return to SumoSam at Shangri-la Mall after a not-so-happy experience dining there a couple of years ago!  It was with Blogger friends when our orders came in SUPER late and our Teriyaki Chicken dish arrived burnt!  I remembered telling myself I won't go back to this branch again.

Not until one weekend when I was craving for Japanese-fusion dishes and finally went back to give this restaurant a second chance.  Well, I can't say I am super impressed but I'm glad this time, the food experience is better than the last.

NU Lady Bulldogs Photoshoot + How I Survive A Photoshoot Day Like This!

I choose to focus on Bridal Makeup Artistry especially now that I'm a mom.  Any other makeup jobs like Photoshoots always excites me!  But I choose to limit myself on that route because I want to spend more time with my toddler and you know how Photoshoots take up a lot of your time.  (Kyle Nash, if you are reading this in the future, you know how much I love you ha!) :P

But when my favorite photographer Mark Lao and Bestfriend asked me to be part of the Biogenic Photoshoot for the NU Lady Bulldogs Volleyball Team, how can I say no?  It maybe a full day away from my son but it was worth it!

Pack-up faces!

The shoot calls for very natural makeup.  There were a total of 17 girls and I partnered with fellow makeup artist Bing Castro.  (Bing, great job!)  Aeicy Cruz was the one who did all their hair!  All 17 girls!

AMW Workshop Series 1: Get Ready For Summer Report

AMW Workshop Series --- has always been a dream of mine for the past 5 years!  Yes, FIVE Freaking Years!  It was always written on my "wishlist" whenever I have a new planner and I guess, the best of "Scaredy-cat ME" always wins!

For me to finally push it through, I've created an evil plan, a plan to counteract my fear and shyness (yes guys, I'm shy in real life! Well seriously, shy in terms of marketing myself)  I've decided to announce to all my good friends by December on my "Workshop Plans".  As they say, the power to success to is CLAIM it!  And I did!  By blabbering about it at the same time, changing my blog template and included a WORKSHOP Category.  Knowing me, seeing it "blank" makes me feel uneasy!  So I know it will push me to the limit to be Pro-active about it, and it worked!

The day, March 5, 2016 finally happened!  And I couldn't be happier!
