Eye of Horus Dynasty Brow Define Review



I have the Eye Of Horus Brow Define eyebrow pencil for quite a while now, I have been testing and using so many types of brow products I can't believe I didn't write about this yet.  Well, today is the day I'm sharing how this is actually a nice brow pencil choice when you're in a hurry!

Aside from Dynasty (medium brown), which is the medium shade, it also comes in Husk (Ash Blonde) and Nile (Dark Brown).  All in a shade of natural-looking brown minus the red tint!  So I call this a perfect brow color.

Revlon Romantic Nudes Look





How does one look romantic?
Well, I believe it always starts from "Romanticism from within".  You can't just fake the "romantic look", you have to believe in it THEN you seek for the aid of "make up" and everything will be packaged as ONE.


It wasn't a difficult decision for me to pick the Romantic Nudes palette from Revlon Colorstay Not Just Nudes Collection.  It was the easiest choice, because I've got the romantic bone since birth.

Here's my super simple look using this palette and for the sake of review, I also used the brush that comes with the palette.

Deborah Milano Dress Me Perfect Fluid Concealer Review





Concealer has always been my best friend for the past years and I have been finishing up concealer after concealer because I really need them to hide my undereye circles on a daily basis!  

READ AGAIN:  ON A DAILY BASIS!


So given a chance to purchase makeup, I'll always go for concealers and face powders (to set) because I use them up the most quickly.

I recently chanced upon an inexpensive brand called Deborah Milano!  Known for their base makeup, I had to pick this up after trying out testers.  The feel and texture is just right so I went ahead and go for shade 3 which is their darkest, at the same time, has the most orange tone to it to correct my dark undereye circles.

Php499.00

Deborah Milano Says ---
A liquid concealer that naturally minimises and disguises minor imperfections and blotchy complexions.  With its creamy consistency, the concealer glides over skin and blends perfectly with the complexion, avoiding an unattractive “masky” effect.  Formulated with “soft focus” micro-spheres that change the angle of light reflected on the skin, the concealer creates an optical effect that minimises imperfections.  The result is luminous, firm skin and remarkably less visible dark circles.
Available in 3 shades:
• 01 Light Beige
• 02 Light Rose
• 03 Apricot

iMagic PROfessional Beauty Lipgloss Review



For a product THIS pigmented, it is illegal to be even called a Lipgloss!
Mind you...I am NOT complaining!

The brand is starting to make its' wave after coming up with several shades that is closed to the wel-known Colourpop, Kylie, etc...  the best part about this review on a start of the week?  It is EXTREMELY affordable and available locally!

Intrigued?  Here's a swatch, just a swipe on my lips and see how it shouldn't even be called a lipgloss, but...I can't call this a Liquid Matte Lipstick either.

Housed in a tube packaging similar to what you see in most liquid mate lipsticks, I understood why this is called a lipgloss.  But, before I talk further, let me show you some photos on the packaging.

Currently Snacking on: Magnum Red Velvet and Calbee Honey Butter Potato Chips




One thing you should know about me is that, I'm a "savoury girl", I'd go for savoury over sweets anytime of the day!  I have a huge stash of junkfood and Mr. AMW has his own stash of sweets (chocolates, etc...) which I almost never touch (well, I do once a month *winks*)  

So when Magnum came up with their newest Red Velvet flavored ice cream, I didn't think I'd go gaga over it!  Boy was I wrong!


Inspired by my favorite Red Velvet Cake, it does have that distinct taste of cream cheese and creaminess of a Red Velvet Cake on every bite!  

This is a limited edition ice cream from Magnum has an intense cream cheese frosting that any Red Velvet Cake lover will search for!  And of course, it doesn't hurt that it comes with the same crunchy Chocolate crust that every Magnum Ice Cream lovers want --- this one is in Belgian White Chocolate.
