House Of Luxe On My Lips

 Happy Monday AMW Friends!
Today, I will share my thoughts on Bobbi Brown's House of Luxe collection.  Well, NOT all of them but I was able to try 2 finishes out of 3 from the collection.

Just so you know, there are 3 categories to choose from
1. Luxe Lip Color
2. Luxe Liquid Lip
3. Luxe Liquid Lip Velvet (in matte and high shine finish)

Bobbi Brown Luxe Matte Lip Color

Php1,850.00

Oil-infused powders delivers a weightless feel.  Pure matte powder pigments provide vibrant color payoff.  12-hour formula offers a smooth and luxurious texture.

We Dined at TGI Friday's On a Friday!

No classes, no work last November 30th and we've decided to do some holiday shopping at the same time, bond with the family.

It was packed inside the mall so we've decided to go to the more quiet area of Glorietta which is were Friday's is located.  Ahhh Friday's brought me back to so much good memories.  We were in Senior High then when my friend celebrated her birthday at Friday's!  I had a huge crush on Keith but I felt like he had a crush on someone else (arte ko lang)...so I remembered giving up that day but this man was actually doing all sorts of "pa-cute" making me hate him even more!  Hayyy those were the days...but I was told on the latter part that it was that very day at Friday's he has decided that he will pursue me (awww, haba ng hair ko!)  

So fast forward to more than 20 years after, we're back laughing our way to the table.

Friday's is known for huge servings and that night, we were actually craving for something close to home!  So it was a pleasant surprise to see Filipino dishes (with a twist) served at an American Restaurant.

Potato Crisp with Truffled Dressing

Php295.00

As much as I would say I love anything Truffled, seriously, I wish they could offer more chips!  Nakakabitin siya for the price.

Three-Meat Platter 

Php1,450.00

You get 3 types of meat --- grilled chicken, Filipino pork liempo and Friday's pork adobo.
Can I pick a favorite?  I can't, they were all surprisingly delicious even though it looked burnt and otherwise.  Seriously, I can't pick a fave and I'm usually not into grilled chicken but it tastes somewhat like Teriyaki.  The Adobo is another star because it is very tender and you can taste real adobo on every single bite!

I just wish this meat set comes with rice because who can eat all these Filipino favorites without rice?

Overall, I had a great time going back reminiscing at TGI Friday's once again!  Will definitely go back with the family soon!

What's your favorite Friday's dish?

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

Solique x Agoo's Holiday Nails

Happy Friday!

I am so happy today I am finally sharing you a nail art design using Solique x Agoo collection.  My right pointer finger suffered from extreme allergic reaction (it looks so bad I can't take a photo of my hand!)  That explains why my nails were bare for the past weeks (if you watch my stories on Instagram).

Thankfully, just in time for the holidays and just in time for Solique's newest collection (after Solique x Benefit), Agoo Bengzon came up with a 2nd collection of this sought after no-UV lamp gel polish!

It was a surprise for me but I was able to use ALL the shades in the collection for this particular nail art design.  That said, the shades work together and my nails look festive in a non-traditional way!

The nail art design is easy to do because it doesn't have to be perfect, all you need to do is to create a bit of swirl and better if you have a thin nail art brush!

Step 1:
Apply a coat or 2 of Solique Anchor Grip Gel Base Coat.  Let dry.

Innisfree My Hair Recipe Repairing Hair Sleeping Pack Review

I love hair care products,
I love hair care products,
did I say it twice?
Yes, let me repeat it thrice, I really Love hair care products!

My hair was extremely damaged from constant coloring through the years, and this year, I've decided to tone down coloring and actually survived 7 months without going back to a salon for hair coloring! The last color treatment I've done is a box treatment using organic hair coloring product.  And the rest of the time?  I focused on making my hair healthy --- based from the length of my hair at the moment, I'm doing something good because I always cut my hair when I think they're dying!

 That said, you can't blame me for going to the Hair section when Innisfree opened the first store in SM Mall of Asia.  Everyone's at the makeup and skincare section while I was at the haircare section picking THIS UP!

Because if your face needs a mask to maintain moisture, your hair have the same needs too!
