AMW Wears: Laneige Two Tone Lip Bars (Newest Shades)

Gradient lips aren't for everybody!  That's based from the comments I receive from previous blog posts!  But I understand, there's no really "for everybody" when it comes to make up!  To each their own as they say!  As for me, I may not be a heavy Gradient-lips girl BUT there's ONE thing I'm sure --- I am in love with Laneige Two Tone Lip Bars!

AMW Cooks: Adobo with Datu Puti

When it comes to Adobo, I knew there are so many Adobo-cooking styles I can't seem to make up my mind!  All I know is that, I love them all!  Whether it would be a chicken version, a pork version, saucy or dry adobo!  They all are considered my "Feel-good-more-rice-please" dish!

When I was sent a basket-ful of Datu Puti Adobo Series, I knew I had to give it a try especially since I haven't cooked adobo dish for the longest time!  

I picked Pininyahang Adobo Sauce and went ahead adding up the AMW touch!

And here's the result!  Tender pork pieces with egg!  The family loves the sweetness that goes with the pininyahang adobo sauce!  My first to try an instant "sauce" from Datu Puti and it was yummy!  I can't wait to try the other variants.

AskMeMom: Safe and Natural Antibacterial Dishwashing Liquid

I used to say: "Dishwashing Liquid?  Ba't kelangan pang mahal?".  

Then everything turned around when I became a mom!  Everything I use in the household has to be SAFE!  Especially since my son has the tummy of his dad!  #SensitiveTummyProblems

Aside from making sure the sponge used for cleaning his utensils is separate from ours, I actually was looking for a better dishwashing liquid and found it finally via Cusina!  

"Cusina Natural Antibacterial Dishwashing Liquid uses the power of nature instead of harmful chemicals to fight bacteria.  It contains tea tree and eucalyptus essential oils for its innate antimicrobial and antiseptic properties and doesnt' rely on synthetic chemicals like triclosan."

There are a total of 3 scents to try --- Lemongrass Citrus, Ginger Yuzu Peel and Grapefruit Lemon Zest. 

Out of the 3, well they all smell great but I'm partial to Grapefruit Lemon Zest!  Thankfully, all 3 do not have the "artificial fruit" scent most commercial dishwashing liquid offers.  

Overall, I am a happy momma!  It removes oil, dirt and leaves my utensils smelling great!!!  And so far, one bottle lasts a bit more than a month!

As a mom, do you use a separate dishwashing liquid for your kids? 

If not, how do you make sure to keep them safe?

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

 

Amp-Up Your Eye Make Up in 1 Easy Step!

I know this tip is so simple and easy you probably knew it by now!  But, just a few reminder to those who are make up newbies!  Those who are complaining to me every time I teach them eye make up!  The excuse will always be: "It's so difficult to blend, I don't know how to apply!" 

Well girls!  There is an easy solution to amp-up your eye make up without much effort!  With my newest discovery Inglot AMC Eye Pencil!

The shade I got is no. 85 which is close to an electric aqua blue shade.

It comes with a sharpened pencil for precise application as an eyeliner and you can use the sides of the pencil to apply all over the crease as an eyeshadow base!

As much as the pencil is retractable and you can get away without sharpening it!  The good side about this pencil is that it comes with a Sharpener at the bottom part.

Lancome Blanc Expert Brightening Compact Foundation Review

So I may not be a heavy liquid/cream foundation user but I am definitely a STRONG powder foundation person!  I use it to cover up my problem areas like darkness, redness and undereye circles!  That's why when I saw Lancome has a new Brightening Compact Foundation under their Blanc Expert line, I knew I had to give this a try because who wouldn't want make up with skin care benefits?

After MONTHS of trying (2 months to be exact), I'm ready to share my thoughts on these!  A bit pricey at first glance but seriously, a powder foundation with separate compact and refill?  That's a MUST and I hope all make up brands would follow suit.

Lancome Blanc Expert Brightening Compact Foundation Says ---

Light-weight and comfortable with volatile oils and a cooling formula.  High coverage with concentrated illuminating pigments that correct dullness and enriched with the Blanc Expert skincare ingredients.
