FitFlop™ Loves Anna Sui Launch

You all know FitFlop™, who doesn't?   But how does FitFlop™ looks like when joined forces with Fashion mash-up master Anna Sui?



This collaboration, FitFlop’s third with Anna Sui, is equal parts magic and logic, mixing playful and pretty with everyday practical.  The collection consists of Ballerina flats and if you ask me, I'd go for the pineapple print ones just to be playful!

The event held last October 7 at FitFlop^TM Shangrila Mall branch was star-studded, hosted by Janeena Chan and they also had a contest for some attendees.  

Max FactorX Crème Puff Blush in Alluring Rose Review

After almost 10 years of blogging about Beauty, seeing, touching, looking at makeup still excites me!  And the Max Factor Crème Puff Blush is no exception!  

For someone who has sallow (aka "boring" skin), adding a color on my cheek gives me the "life" I deserve!  It's like instant caffeine-fix for my face!  Adding the right flush of color will make me look younger (at times) and more cheerful!

The Max Factor Crème Puff Blush is a lightweight, baked formula blush that contains finely milled, multi-tonal pigments that blend evenly.

And I got myself shade Alluring Rose.

According to Max FactorX ---

Baked formula –features a soft, velvet smooth feel and allows for a lightweight end look.
Finely milled, multi-tonal pigments - complement and enhance skin tones, while ultra-fine particles blend effortlessly for controllable contouring and buildable natural colour.

There are a total of 6 shades to choose from:   Lovely Pink, Nude Mauve, Seductive Pink, Lavish Mauve, Alluring Rose and Gorgeous Berries.

Eden's Paradise Lip Cream in Nude Teddy

Remember the last time I raved about Eden's Paradise Lip Custard Cream in Winterberry?  I still wear it on days I don't want to transfer my lip product to anything (aka Kyle's school days) and I like how it doesn't transfer on my coffee mug too!  I enjoy piling it from 2-5 layers without looking like a "walking lips"

Just a bit after a month, who would've thought the brand created another shade that I call my daily staple?  Just check out this super gorgeous shade from the same Lip Cream line called NUDE TEDDY.

(out of topic: Why do I always think about a Nude Teddy Bear whenever I wear this shade?)

AMW Cooks: Crispy Spring Rolls (Pork and Beansprouts)

Do you appreciate how your Crispy Spring Rolls (lumpiang Shanghai) tastes completely different no matter how many times you cook it?  

Well, for me it is!  I seldom do measurements and cook depending on my mood so it gets better each and every time!  So I was in a phase of "in love with beansprouts" so I've decided to mix the usual Sprint Rolls filling with beansprouts!  Who would've thought just a simple change could totally vamp up a simple dish?

Just like make-up, being creative in cooking will open up so much possibilities of newer dishes!

Introducing: AMW's Crispy Spring Rolls with Pork and Beansprouts

Ingredients:

• Ground Pork
• Carrots
• Onions
• Beansprouts
• Salt and Pepper
• 2 tablespoon soy sauce
• Spring roll wrapper
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• Oil for frying

Believe in the Power of Tea with Rituali Tea

I have always believed in the power of Tea, especially since I lived in China for 3 long years!  I've been to a "tea" factory and had expensive tea sessions with my students and learned the importance each tea variant gives!  That's why I am NOT surprised when Beauty Companies tap on the power of "tea" to beautify us not only on the inside but also on the outside.

Origins have recently launched their RitualiTea face and Body mask range.

Ritualitea Powder Face Masks (Php2,400.00)

Ritualitea Cleansing Body Masks (Php1,850.00)

The face masks come in a tin can while the body mask comes in a squeeze-type tube!  Each variant is color-coordinated and each variant has a specific function meant for specific skin types.
