Everyone wants natural-looking brows!  Who doesn't?  I'm always aiming for that natural-looking, not-so-obviously-drawned brows because I am always aiming for enhancing your looks (not changing them!)

So when I got on my hands the Eye of Horus Dual Brow perfect in Dynasty and Husk, I gave both a test and have tried these on clients too!

What's the result?

Wet n Wild Mega Glo Illuminating Powder Review




So it's all illuminating for me nowadays!  Why?  Because my skin is dry (from stress and lack of sleep) and seriously, looking at my skin condition, I ain't getting any younger for sure!  So my choice of blush nowadays are quite unique, I am always on a look out for dual-purpose blush!  A blush color + illumination!  And I got that from Wet n Wild Mega Glow Illuminating Powder, the shade I got is called Strike-A-Pose-Rose!

Wet n Wild is locally distributed by Sprint Asia Beauty, I got this as a Mother's Day gift last month and I've been using this non-stop whenever I bring Kyle to school!  Why?  Because I almost never wear makeup because I'm just a driver and yaya for my son for half a day! :P

Happy Monday!  Weekend was extremely crazy yet I am one Happy and Contented Girl!  The AMW Workshop Series Part 2 was finally done and I met wonderful participants over the weekend!  I will share more about that soon but today, I am sending you good vibes with 2 lipsticks I recently tried from the brand Poise Makeup.

As of the day, they don't have a lot of shades to choose from (yet) but I believe they will be bringing in more shades soon!  As for now, I am sharing my 2 top picks!  2 shades EVERY WOMAN should own!

A perfect nude and a glamorous red lipsticks!
And Poise perfected that in the name of Boca and Vintage!

Boca
Boca is a perfect nude lip color because of the presence of warm undertone making it easy to wear for all skin colors!  A fair skinned users like myself and a dark complexion can really rock this natural lip color!

My "Feel-good" Food and Drinks




I have been so stressed lately!  It is the combination of bringing my son to Preschool, dealing with Kyle's separation anxiety, the 3 long hours of waiting outside the school while worrying about my son and of course, trying to get through each day with both work and house work.

I am only human, I do get tired!  Super tired!  How do I deal with physical, emotional and mental stress?  I feed myself pretty well!  *laughs*  This post is inspired by the food and drinks I tend to crave for when I'm super weary.


I do not have to mention about Coffee, I obviously am a coffee addict and drink more than my maximum allowance that gave myself!  It used to be 2 cups a day but now, I ended up drinking more than 3 or 4!  So on days I wanted to veer away from too much caffeine, I go for my favorite iced cold drinks!

Del Monte Four Seasons Juice Drink is my ultimate favorite!  I have a pitcher inside my fridge always ready on afternoons I need an instant pick-me-upper!  And who would've thought they have so many more flavors to choose from?


Introducing --- Mango, Sweetened Pineapple, Pineapple Orange, Pineapple Pomelo and Pineapple Lychee.


When I posted about these on my IG account, a lot of you highly recommend Pineapple Lychee!  I am not a fan of Lychee drink but will definitely go beyond my comfort level and will give this a try!

What's your favorite Del Monte Juice Drink?

Solique x Marilen Launches 2 New Shades - Serenity and Rose Quartz





I've seen Marilen Faustino-Montenegro on TV a couple of times because of her gorgeous faces flashing on my TV screen for various commercials.  Fast-forward to several years after, I finally met her during Cozy Nails Turn 5 VIP Event, she maybe a well-known model but very down-to-earth!  

Then we met a couple more times!  One as her Blogger Guest on 100% Whole Mom Workshop , and it was a lovely surprise for me when she said YES to my invite during my #BenefitLovesAMW Christmas Bash.

That's why when I learned about the collaboration between my favorite Gel Polish Brand Solique and Marilen, I knew I had to be there to support, even if the location of the intimate launch is super far from me!

The event was held at Coco Nail Studio, Alabang!  As soon as I walked in the area, I feel the warmth and wellness, and that's what Solique x Marilen is aiming for for this particular collection.

Solique and Marilen Styles have teamed up to bring to us warmth and wellness in a bottle!  How?  Through the much celebrated calming colors of Rose Quartz and Serenity!  With the same fast-drying, non-UV gel polish technology from Solique which I love!

Let's talk about Coco Nail Studio, it is one of the most relaxing, friendly and comfortable salon place that I've been to!  I wish I live nearby because I wouldn't mind going back there!

The staffs are friendly and the nail salon smells so good!  The salon also offers home fragrance.
