Eureka Moment! A Nail Hardener Plus MORE!

I know I've talked highly about Girlstuff for so many years now!  Even way before I get to meet the owner, I was a proud user because I love the fact that these polishes are safe for my nails!  They are indeed gentle because I can leave them for quite some time and my nails won't turn yellow.

I love Nail Revive so much, it is the product I used when my nails was murdered by a nail technician when I was randomly looking for a place to remove my gel.  It lives up to its' name --- Nail Revive --- my nails were back to normal in a week or two.

Now, EUREKA MOMENT (Nails Edition)!

I've found another Girlstuff product that's worth the space on my blog (and mention).  They introduced their newest nail care product called Girlstuff Nail Hardener this month and I've been using it a lot - not just as a nail care product but as a polish!  

Remember those times you were looking for a perfect nude-colored polish to complete that French Tip?  Or you are a type who don't like to wear color but wanted to clean digits look?

THIS IS THE ANSWER!

And guess what?  They also keep your nails harder and stronger!

And I realized, I put in so much "exclamation points" in this post because I am THAT excited!

Girlstuff Nail Hardener strengthens and hardens our nails with the help of Keratin.  A coat of Nail Hardener can build a second nail protection. It really helps because I my thumbnail recently cracked at the center!  And I immediately applied 2 coats of nail hardener upon arrival in the Philippines, and here I go typing away like there's no issue!

Any Eureka Moment from you guys?

Girlstuff Nail Revive is available at Girlstuff outlets and online www.girlstufforever.com .

Stay happy!

Estee Lauder Double Wear Nude Review

I LOVE Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-In Place Makeup.  I even hailed it as a liquid foundation that can be used daily considering the coverage it gives, the longevity and how it works for all skin types!  

When I got my hands on the Estee Lauder Double Wear Nude Water Fresh Makeup, I tried it for several days right away!  Because this is said to be water-proof yet it can make the skin look fresh, natural, healthy, even-toned and best of all?  Has a 24-hour staying power (according to the brand)!

Cloud Cosmetics Minty Matte Stick Rouge Review

Hello Monday!

Let's get back to the basics shall we?  

Do you still remember your first tinted lip balm as a kid and you feel like a princess whenever you swipe it on your lips showing a bit of that lovely color?

Well, I kind of had that flashback when I first laid my eyes on the Cloud Cosmetics Minty Matte Stick Rouge, though I was transported back to childhood days, I came right back to the future after my first swipe.

What is this really? 
A tinted lip balm?  A lip balm? Or Lipstick?

LIP BALM BUT BETTER.MMSR is a super pigmented lip balm with a supreme matte finish and powdery feel texture. It is long-wearing, smudge-resistant, no-shine, water-proof, minty stick.

Revisiting Oedo Japanese Restaurant, Banawe

If it's a non-working Holiday, we make it a point to really enjoy it as HOLIDAY.  

We may still be in the Metro but we make sure to do everything in our might to finish off whatever tasks left undone and celebrate in a simplest yet most memorable manner - with the help of food of course!

One of our favorite Japanese restaurant hidden at the corner of Banawe is called OEDO Japanese Restaurant.  The first time we dined there, it took us 20 minutes to wait for our seat and it was dinner time.  So we've decided to eat during off-peak hours because we wanted to enjoy the not so crowded restaurant for a change!

 We tried to order something we never ordered before, but of course, we came back for some favorites still!  Like this Takoyaki Balls!

Octopus Balls

It will take time for them to prepare this so make sure you order something else and leave a space in your tummy for freshly made Takoyaki Octopus Balls just like those in Japan!
