Etude House Big Cover Concealer BB Review




Dual-purpose products are really the thing for the season!  I have recently been using the Kill CLIO Conceal-dation for several days now (check out my #AMWIGStories), Conceal-Dation means Concealer and Foundation  which brought me back to the first "hybrid" base makeup product I've tried for the past months!

(Concealer + BB Cream in one!)

 This BIG COVER is actually a line of makeup product that focuses on COVERAGE!  When you visit any Etude House stores near you, you'll find the Big Cover display which includes Big Cover Concealer BB, Big Cover Tip Concealer, Big Cover Cushion Concealer, Big Cover Concealer Kit and Big Cover Concealer Stick!  

Looking back, I wish I completed all the Big Cover line for review!

Shade: SAND

Esfolio 2 Step Multi Oil Peeling & Cleanser Review





When I first learned about the Korean skincare brand Esfolio from a very good friend (you know who you are! :P)  I was told one of the bestselling, "must-try" product from the brand is the 2Step Multi Oil & Peeling Cleanser.

I was taken aback with the word "PEELING", that's why it took me a while to actually use this (clearing my schedule, making sure I do not have anything important to do that week), I finally took the plunge and used it after Cathy Doll's All Dolled Up Event, since I had heavier makeup on that day, I went home and used this with a bit of a "thumping heart".

How I made my Ofra Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Manila Work!




Some of you probably followed me on #AMWIGStories and saw me "unboxed" OFRA Cosmetics' newest shade of their famous Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick range called "MANILA".  

I love that our Capital is finally considered a shade name for a famous cosmetics brand!  And this shade is said to be apt for most Filipina skintones.

AMW Cooks: Chili Shrimps




I am allergic to seafood but there are rare cases I can actually eat shrimps!  Most of them comes from "Dampa" (which means, the shrimps are extremely fresh!  So if I get allergies, you'll know the food served isn't fresh #ultimateFreshSeafoodTester )

One type of shrimps that I can also eat are those Frozen ones from the grocery!  But I almost never gave into those idea because most of the time, they don't even taste like shrimps!

And there's actually ONE brand that I really like and actually purchase from the grocery --- Pacific Bay!  That is why I actually went out of my way to attend their 20th Year Anniversary recently because I honestly believe in their brand!

Here's my version of Chili Shrimps which took me only 5 minutes or even less in cooking!  Perfect for moms-on-the-go and moms who have multiple jobs like I do!



Ingredients:

  • 1 Pack of Pacific Bay Frozen Fresh Shrimp Jumbo Peeled and Deveined.  Must be thawed.
  • Slice the back of the shrimps so once cooked, it looks pretty (optional)
  • Lee Kum Kee Chili Garlic Paste. (You can purchase this at select groceries)
  • Loads of chopped garlic.
  • Butter

Anyone among you my dear AMW readers heard, seen or used QuickFX products?  They've been around the market for quite some time and I read nothing but raves from fellow Beauty Bloggers who used and reviewed their line, let's not forget, their sachet packaging are amazing and today, QuickFX 30g range is now available at an affordable price!

And it doesn't hurt that their packaging is simple yet cute and very easy to the eyes!  Color coordinated so you won't make a mistake if you plan to use all their range!
