Guerlain Météorites Heart Shape Palette Review



Every time you mention the brand Guerlain, the next name that would come next to the brand will always be --- Meteorites.

As much as they are so nice to look at, it is such a tedious task to tote it around because of the bulky packaging PLUS the balls may just scatter inside your bag making it a bag mess!  So my Guerlain Meteorites stay on top of my dresser table for a year now!  

Thankfully, after so many years, under the Spring 2018 collection, Guerlain finally came up with a "pressed" version of my favorite luminizer!  And to make it even cuter, this product is inspired by the V-shape face which our Asian Counterparts love (the Koreans).

I obviously do not have a V-shape face (it's rounder than round my friends!)  But I enjoyed using this product nevertheless.

Brow Embroidery without the Blade!




If you love to take care of your brows, you've probably heard (or seen) Brow Embroidery at one point of your life.  I watched how Brow Embroidery was done on Facebook ads and even saw them in person on my beauty-loving friends!  


The effect is very natural, but I know a lot of my friends who wanted to try it are too scared to have a blade (no matter how small it is) near their face!  So hear ye!

I came across a new brow product that mimics the effect of a newly done Brow Embroidery from SNOE.

AprilSkin Magic Snow Cushion Review





When I got my own Althea Glittery Black Box before the year ends, I did a bit of unboxing on #AMWIgStories and one of the most requested review from you guys is the AprilSkin Black Magic Snow Cushion 2.0.  


Yes, this is version 2.0 because the original version which I've seen online comes with a white puff and reviews told me this one has better coverage and better oil-control.

Without much expectation, I roadtested the AprilSkin Magic Snow Cushion 2.0 over the Holidays and is still using this to date!

Housed in a black matte compact, this is a bit bulky, similarly sized as most BB Cushion compacts (Laneige is the closest one).

Weekend Food Trip at: Concha's Garden Cafe





If you are a long time reader, you'll probably know by now that I am an extremely simple person!  My way of bonding with my family will always be in a restaurant because #FoodIsLife for us!  I love searching for new restaurants to try because my mom and dad have both worked so hard to raise us and it was only when we all graduated and started working when they started to dine out!  

It was nearing New Year when I've decided to give the famous Concha's Garden Cafe a try.  We heard so many positive reviews from friends who travel all the way to Tagaytay just to have breakfast there.  

Okay, it wasn't a breakfast with my family, it was actually a dinner, but nevertheless I wanted to get the feel of what's in store for us in this restaurant inspired by homemade cooking.


Firstly, reservation is highly recommended as the restaurant tends to be packed with both cars and people.  I gave them a call for a good spot since my dad is on a wheelchair and our wish was granted!  I have to commend the staffs for great service!

The only non-plated meal we had to order was Lengua and it didn't fail us!  Really yummy and I will go back to order this again because I'm craving as of writing.

Initial Thoughts: Seoul White Korea





You've probably seen the launch of Seoul White Korea online a couple of months ago!  Who wouldn't?  Most of my Beauty Loving friends were there!  I was really sad I couldn't make it as I was stuck in a meeting in the opposite side of the Metro.  

But thanks to my Sampleroom family, they sent me a set to try and I've given these products a quick test and what I'll be sharing to you are my initial thoughts as I haven't used them long enough to really give an in-depth review.


I welcome all my AMW friends to comment below if you've tried these products and share to us your experience so we can help each other!
