Kate Tokyo Super Sharp Liner EX Review




How does eyeliner change the way your eyes look?
SO MUCH!

Aside from fixing my brows, I make it to a point to use eyeliner whether liquid pencil or gel on a daily basis!  Well, when we're talking about "on a daily basis" meaning: "RUSH" I always opt for Liquid Eyeliner because I can easily apply them in seconds (per eye) and rush out and look like I've done huge effort in making myself look presentable.

One of the few brands I depend on when it comes to liquid liners are: K-Palette and Lifeford.  And I think after trying this particular Super Sharp Liner from the Japenese Brand Kate Tokyo, I knew this has got to be part of my top 3!

Kate Tokyo has the "normal sized" liquid liner pen called Super Sharp Liner (minus the EX) and I have tried it in the past and it works really well!

But today, I am reviewing an EX version which means, more precise, sharper and just easier for me to draw a very thin and natural line and I also use this to create "fake lashes" to make my lashes both upper and lower part appear thicker.

Le Petit Soufflé, SM Megamall Part Deux





I love being a Blogger, even when I attend mostly Beauty Events, I also get to eat while I learn what's new in the beauty world.  That said, I get to eat in various restaurants (reason why I'm not slimming down!)  and from there, I get to know which restaurants serve good or bad food!

Of course, I always keep the good food restaurants in mind and date my family whenever I get the chance.  One restaurant that really caught my tummy's attention was Le Petit Souffle.  I've dined in both Century City Mall and SM Megamall branches and loved the experience.  So one weekend, I've decided to take my family there!


Loving that I have a caricature drawn after me!  *Just Joking*




Furikake Pomme Fries
Php175.00
I actually am not a fan of these fries because I almost can't taste anything!  *hahaha* But because I was with my son, I have to order this again and it won his heart!  He can't stop eating this and I gotta love this if my son loves it!




Hambagu with Japanese Ketchup and Egg
Php425.00
We asked to separate the sauce because this was Kyle's dish!  The hamburger didn't disappoint as I get the right texture, right beef taste and the egg actually works well with this particular burger.  The Japanese ketchup is quite unique and I can actually eat this dish without the sauce!

Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Microfinishing Pressed Powder Review




When the "Banana Powder" from Ben Nye got ALL the raves online, I immediately got one and used it a lot of times for makeup gigs!  I even posted a "tip" on how to use it and create longer-lasting makeup!

One huge complaint that I can say about the Banana Powder from the said brand, it is BULKY and very MESSY!

When Make Up For Ever came up with their own version of a "yellow powder" or banana powder, and this time, in pressed format, I had to grab one and test it out!
