NEW! Piattos Supersized Chips

 

Guys!  The whole lockdown, I have been stuffing my face with CHIPS!  I am serious when I have a whole  big box of “ALL CHIPS” and snack (3 boxes TBH).

People would think I buy chips for my son, he does eat chips but he eats only a few!  We, as parents are actually big on chips!  After our son goes to bed, our tired selves would enjoy movie night, Korean Variety Shows binge-watching or wathever we do from 12mn onwards with chips on hand!  Ahhhh, don’t judge me, that is why I still have this happy face amidst being locked at home for a year and a half.

We usually open up a bag of chips and share, even with Kyle sleeping, we always keep a portion for him because we want him to be included with whatever we eat!  Unfortunately, with the previous packaging of Piattos, we always end up….well..sorry Kyle, finishing up a bag without leaving some for Kyle!  Kulang naman kasi talaga!  So hearing about the Supersized Piattos version is a great news!

Available in 2 flavors for now - Sour Cream and Onion and Cheese.  I wish they would also supersize their other flavors like Roast Beef!  Don’t worry Piattos, I will be waiting patiently!

Subtle Eyelining Tip

 

Hi AMW Friends!

Today, I will share a quick subtle eyelining tip that most Korean Drama stars do that ends up looking like they are not wearing any makeup at all!  I have studied and tried this tip so many times and decided to share this after (finally) perfecting it! 

All you need to do is 1 product - a good Eyeliner Pencil that is smooth and pigmented yet waterproof and smudgeproof.

I can tell you off the bat a higher end brand and a drugstore brand that works.

Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes

And a new found drugstore brand which I used in this tutorial.  REVLON Cream Eyeliner Pencil.  I used the Brown shade for a more natural effect.

Tightlining is key for natural-looking liner but it is really scary to do so especially when you watch tutorials done by professionals!  I put myself in the shoes of someone who isn’t a professional and are scared to have sharp pencils poking in their eye and finally made this.  See the effect?

Left eye facing you with Eyeliner, right eye facing you is the bare eye!

Please watch this video and see if this is workable.  I would love to hear from you!  Thanks for watching and visiting this post!

Maybelline New Fit Me Review

 

Maybelline gets my thumbs up on their lip products, mascaras and foundations.  They could be inexpensive but I always recommend this brand especially to girls who are just fresh out of college and are on a budget while looking for a job.

There’s one thing I find a bit mind boggling with the brand though!  They revamp and improve their products so fast I can’t seem to keep up —- well, I CAN, but I can’t keep up in a way that there are some great products I don’t want to let go of and they just poof and disappear!  —- HELLO MAYBELLINE MASCARAS!!!!  

So back to this story, if you love the old FIT ME Powder foundation, well, this could be a great news for you (if you ended up loving this), they did some changes and call this NEW FIT ME with 2x Powder Power!  

I will give it to Maybelline for the super nice packaging, very classy and sleek and not the cheap plastic type!  I love the colors used - it just screams CLASSY and nice.

The Maybelline New Fit Me is honestly NOT my kind of product because for the fact that I have combination NORMAL/DRY skin.  This product is meant for oily skin because of the Oil Control properties so I am not doing a detailed review about this product since I won’t be using these as much as I like to.  

Priced at Php249.00 available at SHOPEE. There are a total of 8 shades available locally but when I took a look at their online selling site, there were only 2 shades left - Warm Nude and Soft Tan.

The shades are a bit darker and more apt for most Filipinas to be honest.  Their lightest shade Natural Ivory is 1 shade lighter than Classic Ivory (on swatch below).  So if you are super fair, you may not find the right shade for you.  Considering I am using a BEIGE person in most Maybelline products, Natural Beige turned a bit dark on me (swatch located at jaw area) and I turned out to be the shade of 2nd to the lightest which is CLASSIC IVORY as you can see below.

But here’s what I like about Maybelline’s New Fit Me, it has better coverage.  It does not only serve as an oil control powder, it gives a decent coverage as seen on my before and after photo below.

If you can’t visualize how Nars Orgasm would look on my skintone, well, I solved your problem.  I wore everything NARS product on photo above translated to a look below.

Nars Afterglow Lip Balm in Orgasm on lips 

The Afterglow lip balm gives hydration on my lips like crazy!  I find myself applying and reapplying for so many layers not because the color was gone - it felt right and addictive!  So if you have dry lips like me, you have to invest on this!

FOTD: Back to 90’s

 

When Permission To Dance from BTS dropped, I was addicted to their newest All-English Single.  I love it so much I got inspired to create this hairstyle and makeup look!  Adding up to the overall look, I also wore my all denim number which you can see after the jump.

I ironed my hair giving it a sleek, straighter loook but didn’t go overboard, ruffled the roots of my hair and used Dry Shampoo spray and used a dainty headband that screams —- 90’s!  

I also cut my own hair giving myself some wispy bangs!  It is hard to manage but still made me look at least 2 years younger so I’ll go for the scarifice!  *laughs*

Have you listened to the single Permission to Dance? 

What are your thoughts on my look?

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!
