Eureka Moment: Pro Studio Beauty Exclusives Miracle Sponge Set with Case (8 Pack)





I have been watching Korean Youtube Gurus like Jungsaemmool and I remembered wanting this huge sponges she used on her tutorials!

Eureka moment indeed when the Pro Studio Beauty Exclusives Miracle Sponge Set (8 pack) Php550.00 (on sale at BeautyMNL.com for Php440.00) in pastel shades landed on my table one day!

It comes in a Pentagon Shaped sponge, quite thick and very dense.  I immediately picked one and used one on my client and on myself!

What made me love this even more is the fact that it comes with its' own container, so doing some research, they sell 20pcs pack (all white) for Php200.00 making it a nice way for me to just repurchase a refill and put all these cute sponges free from dirt on this clear plastic container.

Benefit GALifornia Review



One of the most requested "powdered blush product" for the year 2017 is none other than --- Benefit's Galifornia Box O' Powder Blush!

What sold me from giving in to Galifornia?  Well, aside from the fact that I'm singing "GALIFORNIA Girls we're unforgettable, Daisy Dukes bikinis on top.." (sing to the tune of Katy Perry's California Girls.)  Seriously, the song does not go away!  It just gets more intense as I use this blush every single day.

Now back to another reason why I cave in!  According to Benefit Cosmetics, Galifornia is a Sweep of Sunshine --- who doesn't like that?

And I actually own almost ALL of the Benefit's Box O' Powders and I have to say, this is my favorite box design to date!

Revlon Ultra HD Gel Lip Colors Review



Oh, how much do I missed lipsticks in slim packaging!  I think the first ones that I have is from Maybelline?  Or was it Cover Girl?  See?  How long was that I totally forgot about them!  But seeing these new Revlon Ultra HD Gel Lip Colors packaging brought me back to so much good memories.

And that's not all, these are even more beautiful than ever!  The packaging is metallic and the same color as the lip color itself!  I got 5 shades to show you out of the total of 15 shades available in Revlon counters near you.

Mida Food Turns 20 + Pacific Bay



It was one Rainy Thursday Night when I was off to Enderun Tent to attend the Feast of the Pacific hosted by Mida Food Distributors.  I usually do not stay out late but this is definitely an exception when we are talking about a celebration with the leader in the Philippine seafood industry.



Alongside with other Food-loving Bloggers who loves to cook like I do!  I went ahead and learned about the company and the retail brand Pacific Bay --- which I personally purchase on a monthly basis!



Pacific Bay offers full line of retail seafood specialty items from Tuna products, crabs (softshell crab, King Crab and Snow Crab) to lobster, shrimp, squid, octopus, bacalao, halibut, dory, cod, salmon, tuna, scallops, mollusks and a whole lot more!

Sleek Studio



I remembered being a start-up Beauty Blogger, I find it so difficult to go to Cosmetics Stores or counters just to take photos!  I remember I had to really sneak my way into taking swatch photos and product photos in-stores just because....I got looks for staffs.

Thankfully, brands like Sleek MakeUp came up with something not only fun but exciting for Beauty Bloggers/Vloggers or even if you're not, it is still an exciting idea to know there is a concept store called Sleek Studio.

Sleek Studio is currently located at 2nd Floor Atrium of Robinson's Galleria Mall and here's what you can do to jazz up those photos, flat lays and selfies!
