Thank You For #AMWWorkshopSeries10 !



Dear AMW Workshoppers,
Thank you so much for trusting me to spend your hard-earned money to be with me on a Saturday (weekend) and learn about makeup and skincare.

Dear AMW Workshop Sponsors,
Thank you for entrusting your brand to my mini space!  Without you, I won't be able to live my dream to teach and share my skills on makeup artistry.

To my AMW Friends,
Thank you for staying with me all these years!  Without YOU, I won't be able to do the things I love to do!


That is my short speech from my heart to yours because this is my 10th workshop!  Can you believe it?  I remember the time I "wished" to have my own workshop so I can help brands put their products out there while helping attendees try out products/brands they haven't tried before.  Aside from that, I also want to teach my attendees the ways to use the products so nothing is wasted!  Because I don't want my AMW Family to waste money!


Before I share to you our lovely sponsors who joined in for the 10th workshop, none of these will be possible without Team AMW! 

My husband and sis-in-law, you guys are the best team members EVER!  Everything turned out to be a breeze for all the 10 workshops just because I have you both by my side!

Seaking's Calamari Sticks Recipe



I love to order Calamari whenever we dine in an American Restaurant.  As much as we love the "crunch", the order is always "bitin" and we always wanted MORE!

As much as I love cooking, I'm always in a rush and will always prepare meals that are 30 minutes less!  With the work I do, the cooking in between MUST be easy, fun to do and the most important thing of all? DELICIOUS!

So whenever I shop for my weekly menu plan, I always have something in the fridge that is easy-to-do!  Just like the Seaking Calamari Sticks.  

Disclaimer: This pack was sent to me but I have been buying these way before they sent me!  Yes, you can check my video recipes on Recipes Highlight on Instagram.


Now let's start preparing Crunchy Calamari Sticks in 30 minutes time - or less!

Ingredients:

  • Seaking Calamari Sticks
  • 1 Egg
  • Bread Crumbs
  • All-Purpose Flour
  • Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Pepper 
  • Optional: Mayonnaise as dressing


Step 1:
Throw in Seaking Calamari Sticks in a bowl and add in All-Purpose Flour.  For 1 pack, I used approximately 4-5 tablespoons.

YADAH Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm Review



I lived and breathe Cleansing Oils ever since I learned about Shu Uemura!  Thank goodness for more alternative (and inexpensive brands) out there because I use them up so fast!

For a Beauty and Skincare enthusiast like myself who hoards skincare and makeup products I like, I actually ended up one fateful night without a cleansing oil!  I was in shocked because I usually have stocks!  I obviously didn't and I rummaged through items I got for review and found Yadah Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm which I used immediately without much expectation.

Now, I'm writing a full blog post about it, you kind a know what's next!

I FREAKIN' LOVE IT!

My Tiny Secret as a Multi-Tasking Mom!



NO, not a messy table!  *laughs*

I hope this overview shows you how much work I do on a daily basis.  Come, join my world!


After sending my son to school and workout, I go back home and answer emails!  Loads of them!  


I also schedule meetings and events in between creating curriculum for my makeup and skincare training jobs, send out proposals for clients and a whole lot of PR work.

And of course, I also do a lot of online shopping in this particular workplace because ... too busy to go out for shopping!  So if you wonder how I manage to do a lot of things, this is one tiny secret I'm sharingThere's no way I could get everything done without sites like Amazon!
