A Close Dupe for OCC Lip Tars




Just look at my lips!  Super baby pink right?  And guys, it happened in just ONE SWIPE!  And it's not OCC Lip Tars!  They're from a Korean brand called 3CE (3 Concept Eyes) and they are called Lip Pigment!

Shade: Mellow Pink

I actually picked this shade on my first Althea order a few months back!  It took me a while to muster the courage to really wear this because trust me when I say it looks great on photos but quite alarmingly pink in person!  As you all know, I'm into pinks, bright pinks, but not on my lips!  

Is it a bad buy?  Actually, NOT!  I find this a perfect "mixing medium" for my other liquid lipsticks.

Asus Unveils Complete Line-Up of Zenfone 3 Family!




So you all know I'm an ASUS Zenfone user as my personal phone when I reviewed the Asus Zenfone 2 Laser 5.0.   It is a straightforward smartphone for busy women like me!  So when I got an invite for an exclusive launch of Zenfone 3 family last August held at Sofitel Philippine Plaza, I had to be there to check what's new!


I was really surprised it wasn't just the unveiling of the complete line-up of the Zenfone 3 family, I was amazed to see the newest ZenBook 3 and Transformer 3 series!  They are considered the newest premium product innovations from ASUS and ASUS Global CEO Jerry Shen was there to explain to the Philippine market (through fans and media).

Measurable Difference Lash Amplifying Liquid Eyeliner Review



Last April, I introduced a brand called Measurable Difference with a product review.  Shared my thoughts on their Lash Amplifying Mascara and Primer.  And just when you thought that's all they have to offer, you're wrong!  I actually have 2 more of their products under AMW testing and this one is ready to fly!  Why?  I've used this on and off for several months now!

 Of course, for someone as talkative as yours truly!  You know this is NOT the end of the blog post!  I just had to share because I'm so in love with Benefit's Ka-Brow! and to be honest, this used to be my "Least favorite" Brow product from HUGE Benefit Brow Collection Launch because it seems so tedious to use!



Thankfully, it's worth the trial and error because the effect?  I can actually get away using just ONE brow product!  And this is coming from someone who uses 2-3 brow products on a daily basis!
