Sometimes I Like You, at Times I Don't....



And I'm not talking about my husband, as I love him at ALL times.  *naks*  


I'm talking about makeup of course!  I got the Holika Holika Magic Pole Eyeliner 2X through Althea just because I didn't know we have it locally at that time I ordered online.  It was sitting in my "liquid liner" box for the longest time and I can't put my finger on either I love this product or not liking it at all!  

Let me tell you more about my confusing by sharing some photos on the product itself.

Once You Pop, You have to Wear It!



Once I popped my newest Pop Beauty Matte Velvet Lipstick in Pink Porcelain, I thought I'll leave it or give it away because it was too "cool-toned" pink and you know how it looks on a fair-skinned girl with warm undertone ---> SICK!

Thankfully, I was able to pull off such color because my hair looks darker than before, I find it that having light ash brown hair makes it difficult for me to pull off cool toned lip colors, do you feel the same?

Good news to girls who are looking for Paraben-free makeup products, I recently had a friend who messaged me asking for brands who offer such and guess what?  Pop Beauty fits the Paraben-free bill!

Family Staycation at: Tagaytay Wingate Manor




2 weekends ago, without plans, we've decided to have a short staycation in Tagaytay.  It was Holy Week so I wasn't expecting to be able to book an overnight stay there.  Thankfully, I have a friend who recommended me Tagaytay Wingate Manor so we've decided to give this place a try!  Thanks Travis and Dee for helping me book!  It was last minute but everything goes smoothly.

Located right at the heart of Tagaytay were you can do activities, dine in restaurants and a whole lot more, I like how it is tucked inside a road where there are more trees and fresh air.  Tagaytay Wingate Manor is a two-storey property with a total of 24 rooms.  Because it was peak season, the place was packed but thankfully, I don't feel like the place was crowded.


We originally wanted the Premier room but since it was full, we went for Standard Queen Room and went for extra bed because we want our hardworking #yayatab to be on vacation with us too!

My Estee Lauder Skincare Recommendation



I get asked so many times about skincare products both on and offline.  I am proud to say, one part of my body that I'm extremely proud of is my skin --- not because they're perfect.  But because I take care of it through the years investing on products that works for me, it's actually one reason how this Blog started.  In my quest for good skincare regimen.

My friends can attest to it that whenever they ask for recommendations for anti-aging skincare line, I always mention Estee Lauder because I know it really works!  (Estee Lauder for anti-aging, Clinique for basic skincare).

Which particular Estee Lauder product you ask?  It pays to visit them and have your skin analyzed, but here are just some of the many Estee Lauder products I've used and found effective through the years.  Are you ready?

Makeup World Brow|Up Eyebrow Kit Review




Hello Brow-loving friends!
Are you ready for another brow product review?
I got the Makeup World Brow|Up Eyebrow Kit last year but seriously didn't get around to use it because seriously, for the past years, just how many types and brands of brow products came out?  (ang dami di ba?)  I even took more time deciding which brow product to use than the application itself!  

But the long wait is over and I'm glad I gave this kit a try!  Maganda siya in fairness, if you don't believe me, check out the half face photo below!
