Maki Mi Recipe

 

Hi AMW Friends!

There are so many dishes I missed ever since the lockdown but thankfully, my quest for those dishes made me expand my cooking skills!  

These are just some of the dishes I never tried cooking in the past but all thanks to my neighbor for sending me some and told me it isn’t hard to make Maki Mi on your own! 

So here’s my 2nd try!  The first time, it was a success but I wanted to make sure it is restaurant-like quality and it passed my family’s taste!  My husband even exclaimed this taste exactly the same as the famous Maki Restaurant in the Metro.

Ingredients:

• Pork Kasim (diced and pounded)
• Cassava Starch (I Specifically used AA Powder for this)
• Soy Sauce
• Dark Soy
• Minced Garlic
• Pork Cube (Ex. Knorr)
• Sesame Oil
• Cooking Wine
• 1 egg
• White pepper
• Spring Onions
• Egg Noodles 

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

 

Comfy OOTD for Weekends

 

My style went from on trend to major comfort ever since the pandemic.  Whenever I visit my parents, I always dress as comfortably so I can move around freely considering it is uncomfortable enough to wear mask and face shield - yes I do so even at my parents’ place.

This is my favorite top from Uniqlo because I like to protect my arms as much as possible whenever I am out.  And my shorts which is garterized - a recent purchase via Shopee! (Link HERE if you want to shop for the same shorts and they have more colors pa!)

And I love KF94 masks, I do double masking just to be sure with a medical mask underneath but I find it super comfortable to talk and chat with my parents!

Make Up For Ever Brow Filler and Brow Definer review

 

A week ago, I attended a virtual launch of Make Up For Ever PH’s Aqua Resist brow products!  3 new brow products under this line and I am featuring the 2 pencils because I have been using and testing these ever since I got them.

Make Up For Ever’s Brow Filler and Brow Definer

Price: Php1,400 each

Available online at Lazada

I got both shades in 30 Soft Brown

Top: Brow Filler

Bottom: Brow Definer

Aqua Resist Brow Filler 

Multi-use slanted tip brow pencil with a built-in spoolie that delivers 24HR waterproof, smudge-proof wear. Ideal for patchy or sparse brows.

The pencil is thicker so it is easier to fill larger areas as compared to the Brow Definer.  This is a retractable pencil and you get pigmented brow pencil with a nice touch of wax - yes, I can feel the wax as my stubborn brow hairs are pushed in place (even upwards without issue) upon using the product.  I also like how it can “tint” my brow hairs naturally.  Check out my before and after photo below.

Watsons shoppers pick their best beauty products

 

Before I started to Blog, I remembered searching online for TOP Favorites from E-commerce sites and read reviews from various Bloggers!  That helped me so much in purchasing products that work.

A mask-proof lipstick, a tried-and-tested beauty soap and a body lotion with vitamins are some of the beauty products chosen by Watsons shoppers as their Most Loved for 2021.  

Do you know what they are?  Feel free to add these items to your cart, perfect for your self-care routine especially since we are always locked inside our homes!

 

Best Shampoo: Head & Shoulders Cool Menthol Anti Dandruff Shampoo

What's not to like about this shampoo? It cleans hair gently with a menthol fresh feeling and leaves it moisturized.  This is my husband’s ultimate favorite and I have been purchasing and repurchasing this for years!  As of the moment, I have back up bottles of around 10!

Happy Monday AMW Friends!

How have you been?  Did you have a restful weekend?

Since the start of pandemic + Kyle’s online classes, I don’t even know what the term restful meant (lol).  My life is scheduled every single minute, with tasks needed to be checked as the clock ticks!  Not complaining though, keeping myself busy steers my mind away from COVID-19 Paranoia.

Today, I will be sharing another new hairstyle technique that can be done by yourself and nice enough to be called a special events hairstyle with the right hair accessories!  

Looks complicated right?  Trust me, this is so easy to do!  I created a short-cut, Hairstyle 101 for dummies version!  Not really dummies, but I call myself a DUMMY in terms of hairstyling since I base everything from practice and experience.

Watch this quick video and let me know if you would try this on yourself!  Tag me on socials @askmewhats
