NYX Butter Gloss Review




These are glosses that has quite good pigmentation so I can definitely include these glosses as must-haves for users with dry lips!

And obviously, I'm the perfect dry-lipped lady who tested these 2 shades!

Will It Be Too Much If I Posted Another....




Lucky Rainbow Weekend Food Trip Post?
I hope not!  Because seriously, one of my MOST favorite restaurant to date!


Isn't it obvious? 
I've blogged about Lucky Rainbow, Ongpin Branch.
The first time was blogged HERE when I brought less than a year old Kyle Nash.
And guess what?  We celebrated Kyle's 3rd Birthday at their Banawe Branch!

And Makati Folks, did you know they also have a Makati Branch?  Just in case you think Lucky Rainbow is located in Manila only!  Well, that's new found information for you friends!

It was my Dad's Birthday Celebration and really, if you have a dad who uses wheelchair and a son that runs around, big, well-carpeted restaurants with functions rooms are the place to be!  And Lucky Rainbow, Z-Mall Branch fits the bill!

Asado with Honey Sauce
Php200.00
A MUST-TRY!  They're always out-of-stock so try to order as early as possible!  They are extremely juicy and tender and sliced so thinly it made me go crazy!  And who likes the "burnt" "crunchy" portion like I do?


Steamed Suahe
Price depends on kg
I'm a "Dampa" girl so I know if shrimps are fresh or not!  Well, I'm a walking "seafood freshness-tester" because I will get instant allergic reactions to shrimps that aren't fresh!  So far, I didn't need any anti-histamine after taking my first bite!

Bohktoh High Performance Eylashes Adhesive Review




Ever since I attended the Beauty Lab Bohktoh + Nippon: Nongchat event, I can't stop reaching out for the Bohtoh High Performance Eyelash Adhesive because I saw how wonderful it was during Nongchat's Live Demo.

Piling lashes after lashes (4-5 in ONE eye!)  I can't believe how this tiny lash glue can hold up all these lashes together.  Aside from that, the effect was unbelievably natural so I had to go home and give this lash adhesive a test too!



Bohktoh High Performance Eylashes Adhesive Says ---
Applying false lashes is made quick and easy with this high-performance eyelash glue from Bohktoh. 

To use: Apply a thin line of adhesive along the lash band. Wait for 10 seconds for the glue to set. Put the lashes onto the center of the eyelids as close as possible to the lash line. Dries invisibly. Formulated for 24-hour wear. Designed for use with Bohktoh False Lashes. Waterproof + Hypoallergenic.

CBTL Kiddie Enterprise Fair




I remembered years ago (okay fine!  Many years ago!)  I wanted to work in several well-known food chains but the opportunities weren't there!  I guess, there were so many competitions back then and HR would look at me with one eyebrow raised saying: "You're Chinese!  You don't need the money!"  (yes guys, true story yan!)  So what did I ended up doing?  Teaching kids during summer even when school starts!  I'm a professional Tutor AMW Friends! :P

Today, with millenials having more opportunities due to technology, I'm glad to say there are companies who took this opportunity and "brew" them into something even more wonderful!  

Brew Your Best Year from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
            


This is the CBTL's Community for encoursing customers to be the best versions of themselves by putting together a Business Bootcamp for Kids!  Designed to teach kids the basics of business in an interactive and experiental way, it is a two-party activity that aspires to mold the youth into becoming the next generation of entreprneurs who will continue to pave the way for a stronger economy!

For the first part of the bootcamp, Coffee Bean Kids underwent an Entrepreneurship Workshop facilitated by their partner institution, The Ultimate Learning Accelerator (TULA). During the workshop, the kids learned the foundational knowledge and skills needed to start their own small businesses. To provide an avenue where the kids can apply their learnings, the Business Bootcamp will culminate with a Kiddie Enterprise Fair. During the fair, the Coffee Bean Kids will be selling food and retail items with one goal in mind: to create successful business ventures and return their parents’ investments through their earnings.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® invites everyone to support the Coffee Bean Kids during their first business venture at the Kiddie Enterprise Fair on September 3, 2016, Saturday! The event will take place from 11AM-6PM at the garden area in front of their Bonifacio High Street store. The brand will also be selling their teas at a special rate and promises exciting surprises for all attendees.

AskMeMom: My Ultimate Dream For Kyle Nash





What is my ultimate dream for my son Kyle Nash?
Well, I can't say just one in particular but off the top of my head, I have so many wishes for him ---
  • I wish he will be respectful.
  • I wish he will have more friends, true friends to guide him by.
  • I wish he will be a responsible citizen.
  • I wish he would be successful in whatever path he plans to partake.
  • I wish he grows up to be like his dad --- Loving, caring, a gentleman.
The list could go on and on!  
But to jump-start making my hopes and wishes for him, I spend and invest a lot of my time and effort in making sure he is equipped with the right tools to be the best he can be!


That explains why I am extremely hands-on with him.


In his earlier years until today, I take time and effort in teaching him the basics --- on how to be patient, on being respectful to people around him, in being grateful in little things he receive on a daily basis and a lot more!


On to the academic side, I also take time to teach him the basics --- reading, writing, speaking and listening.  It wasn't an easy ride, everything is done at his own pace, I never force him to do things he doesn't like to do because he only gets to be a baby and toddler once, and I want him to have a pleasant experience like I did when I was growing up.
