A Concealer For the Dry Undereye Area

There are days when you wake up and look into the mirror and wished you have an "eraser" to erase all your skin troubles away?

I felt that the most for the past 2 weeks especially since I got really sick.  I've been taking medications and my skin is acting up.  Face literally peeling from dryness and as much as I hav my favorite concealers on-hand, some of them just enhance the dryness even more!

Good thing I remembered I own Benefit's Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer and I immediately used it for the full 2 weeks and it has been wonderful to me.

 Box is so cute, look literally like an eraser!

Inside, you have a cute twist-up packaging housed in a Benefit Pink Case.

Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer reminds me so much of Fake Up but I love the packaging of this one better.  It comes in 3 shades --- 01 Light, 02 Light Medium and 03 Medium.

 

I picked the middle shade, Light Medium which is 02.

Benefit Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer Says ---

"With the same hydrating formula as Benefit’s Fakeup Concealer, the Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer hides dark circles, while it visibly smooths the look of fine lines. This concealer stick is infused with vitamin E and apple seed extract to keep your skin hydrated for up to six hours while leaving a natural-looking, sheer finish. "

SilkyGirl Magic BB All-In-One Powder Foundation Review

When I posted about my new powder foundation from SilkyGirl, I've read raves on my comment box and private inbox and was told this is hailed to be one of the best Asian brand powder foundation.

Because of that statement, I immediately picked this one up and used it for a good full month.   The powder comes in 4 shades (01 Ivory, 02 Natural, 03 Medium and 04 Rose Beige) and I immediately picked 02 Natural which has a good amount of "warm" undertone perfect for my skin.

SilkyGirl Magic BB All-In-One Powder Foundation Says ---

"This new and improved formula of Magic BB All-In-One Powder Foundation comes with these 4 natural ingredients; Wild Mango Butter, Calendula Flower Extract, Sakura and Mulberry Leaf Extract to keep skin looking flawless all day. Also formulated with Powder La Vie and Silica to absorb excessive sebum for a shine-free, matte finish that lasts all day. Available in these 4 shades."

My 2 Favorite Pink Sugar Lip & Cheek Tints To Date!

Seldom can you find me say "Favorite" for a lip color, because how can you play favorites with all the shades you can play with?

BUT, Pink Sugar recently releases 2 new Sugar Tints and I can't seem to pick a favorite!  You help me out please!

2 new shades : Sugar Rush and No Filter 

Okay, the previous Sugar Tints I blogged --- Slay, Pillow Talk and Love Bug are great BUT, these 2 new shades warm up my sallow skin and it works really well even if I'm stressed, tired, sick and sleepy!  These 2 are my pick-me-upper and I can't help but think these were made specially for me *ahem* #FeelingSpecial  

But what I was trying to say was, these are meant not only for me but for most Filipinas!  Or let me correct that, these 2 shades are meant to be part of your lip collection whether you live on Earth or Outer Space!

Now let's get back to Earth and check out the swatches.  I personally think the colors aren't just gorgeous, there is something new about the formulation!  I find them more wearable, non-drying and they still get the same good pigmentation I had from the previous ones.

Weekend Food Trip at: Ramen Shokudo

Ramen has always been my to-go-to dish whenever I'm tired, cranky or just plain hungry!  It's my super comfort food.  To prove that, I even bought packs of Japanese Ramen during my Bangkok Trip (and I'm fully aware I'm not in Japan!  lol)

Since the Booky app has been my ultimate bestfriend when it comes to searching for new restaurants to explore (by area), I've seen Ramen Shokudo popped and it's just within the area where I always bond with my family --- Banawe.  I've tried this restaurant 3x total as of the moment because the first experience was great I had to return.  Unfortunately, the last one wasn't as great as the first one (personal opinion, different Chef?) but it was still a good place to try but please do not go there hungry!  There are people lining up for their seats because the place is small!

Toriton Miso

Php380.00

A Japanese soy base.

I love how flavorful the soup is and rich (miso).  The strips of Chashu is one of the best I've tried because I am usually not a "pork lover" when it comes to Ramen.  With this particular bowl of goodness, I devoured everything --- from noodles to meat, egg and bamboo shoots.

Gyoza

Php149.00

Just like regular Gyozas you have in other Japanese restaurants.  Nothing special but not bad for an appetizer.
