Cathy Doll Whitening Sunscreen L-Glutathione Magic Cream SPF50 Review





I've been more addicted to Sunblock lately!  From driving my son to school and all the errands in a lightly tinted car!  I'm starting to see watch lines and shirt lines!  (Not a good sight people!)  So my quest for lightweight face and body sunblock continuous as I use up tube after tubes!

Especially Sunscreen for the Body!

I used to shy away from Whitening Sunscreen or any whitening products in general!  But thankful for the harsh rays of the sun and my constant getting in and out of the car (motherhood), I am starting to see uneven lines and random dark spots on my arms and legs!  So I finally gave in to Cathy Doll Whitening Sunscreen L-Glutathione Magic Cream because I get so many positive feedback from fellow beauty junkies!

Punch on my Lips, Not in my Drink!




I started to enjoy lipliners especially when they are getting more pigmented and glides on easier than before!  What I dislike about lipliners/lip pencils though is how thin they are and how it takes longer time for me to apply since I have full lips!  

Art Sticks (also known as Lip Crayons) are the answer to my "full lips" problem.  But, most of them tend to be drying and not as pigmented thus I end up exfoliating my lips instead of applying color to them!  

I recently discovered Bobbi brown Art Stick during a quick visit at the SM Beauty Section and got myself a shade called PUNCH.  I haven't been into bright colored lip products lately but this has definitely been a huge exception to the rule!

Housed in a jumbo crayon packaging, you get the Bobbi Brown name printed and the bottom part of the pencil is the shade.  This is a wooden pencil so you need to make sure you own a jumbo sharpener to be able to sharpen this.  I am not sure if Bobbi Brown locally sells this with the jumbo sharpener but they definitely have a specific Bobbi Brown Jumbo Sharpener!

Lipstick meets liner—this chunky pencil glides on effortlessly and delivers a creamy matte finish to instantly step up any look. The perfect blend of emollients and shea butter creates a rich creamy texture that allows for smooth and effortless application with incredibly comfortable wear. The enclosed sharpener ensures a precision application every time.

KTO Ladies' Special Food Edition



If you ask me what my favorite dish is, my answer will always be Korean!

After a long day of work, I always go to my favorite restaurant Korean Village or eat Ghalbi and Samgyeopsal at Mak Chang.  Ask me about the best Korean restaurants in town, I'll probably give you a list or two.

When I was invited to joan the #LadiesSpecial Tour arranged by Korea Tourism Organization, Cebu Pacific and JG Summit Holdings, I got excited to see Korea again in a different light and dine in restaurants as approved by the KTO!  Seriously, the best person to guide you to the best restaurants in town would be people living there!  Thanks Alice, our Tour Guide, for arranging everything!

I'm sure some of you have plans to visit Seoul anytime soon!  So please check out my short list of "Where to Dine in Seoul"!  Enjoy!
