Happy Skin Say Eye Do Easy Eyeshadow is Indeed Very Easy-to-Use!




Most of the makeup students I meet complain about eyeshadow application!  I don't blame them, it is indeed one of the most challenging makeup step after foundation and brows!  

I always tell my students during workshop that eyeshadow application really is tricky because you don't have exact set of rules for that!  It all boils down to personal preference, eye shape and a whole lot more!  

In my opinion, the best way to start practicing is by using the least amount of product as possible and practice BLENDING first before anything else!  And one product that Happy Skin came up with is actually very friendly to first-time eyeshadow users at the same time, quite fun to use for makeup enthusiasts like myself!

Eden's Paradise Minty Matte Stick Rouge in Bourbon Peach Review




Eden's Paradise came up with a Minty Matte Stick Rouge (Peaches and Cream Edition) which consists of 5 lipstick shades that are known to be wearable "My-Lips-But-Better" Summer shades.

I have tried a couple of shades randomly but I've recently used this particular shade a lot so I've decided to share my thoughts on these Paraben-Free, Cruelty-Free and 100% Non-Toxic lipsticks.

Eden's Paradise is a local brand who does their own skincare and cosmetics line.  I have tried a couple of the Eden's Paradise products like ---
Eden's Paradise Lip Cream in Nude Teddy
Eden's Paradise Lip Custard Cream in Winterberry

Both earned positive reviews from me so I actually was excited to try their new lip products upon receiving them over mail.

Boulangerie22 14th Store Opening at SM North EDSA



Aside from a cup of coffee, I have a soft spot for breads, yes...BREADS!  I used to "literally" lived on bread alone and survived without rice (that was eons ago of course I can't do it now!)  

But back to my topic, I am a bread lover and was actually a super loyal customer of Boulangerie22 ever since they opened up stores after stores a couple of years ago!  I can say I'm a loyal customer and I know all their breads pretty well....by heart to be exact.

That's the reason why I held one of my #AMWWorkshopSeries at B22 Makati branch early this year.  And to prove my love for the brand, I got an invite for their 14th store opening at SM North EDSA and actually went there...at 10am.

Can you see that happy and satisfied smile?  ---> that's definitely a sign of true love :D



During the opening date, the first 222 customers get to purchase cakes for 50% off while another 122 customers get to join the 22 seconds challenge!  22 seconds challenge means you get to put all the bread you can in a medium sized Boulangerie22 bag for the price of Php22.00!  No wonder the line was just as long as a line of a K-Pop concert!  It was crazy yet KUDOS to B22 staffs as everything went smoothly!  



The Boulangerie22 SM North EDSA branch is spacious, all the breads and cakes are neatly displayed in a way you get to see EVERYTHING at once glance!  I like how clean and spacious everything looks making it a wonderful "bread shopping experience" for anyone going in the store.

Palmolive Naturals White + Milk Review




One thing that I've been loving about my Sampleroom family?  The chance to try before I buy because I would sometimes just stick to what I use and never venture out on other brand/products.

I recently get to try the new Palmolive Naturals White + Milk line and I couldn't be happier.

Palmolive Naturals White + Milk Soap 
(80g for Php28.75 and 55g for Php12.95)
Palmolive Naturals White + Milk Body Wash
(200ml for Php80.00)

Irresistible Me Jade Hair Straightening Brush Review




If you follow me on #AMWIGStories you've probably seen my Real Hair Situation.  
Lifeless, frizzy, unmanageable.

But how do I manage to look so "together" at times?  On photos?  During events? 

Well, aside from makeup and skincare, I highly depend on hair tools in making me look more "put together" than usual.  


I recently got the chance to try a Ceramic Straightening Brush , these types of brushes is what I've been longing to try as early as my teenage years!  I remembered browsing through international magazines hoping one day, I'll own one...and finally I did! (Sadly, I'm not a teenager anymore! hahaha)

Hay...I'm so in love with the pastel color!  It adds up to my excitement #truth
