UNIQLO Launches Its 2022 Spring/Summer LifeWear Collection


February 18, 2022, Manila, Philippines  Japanese global apparel retailer, UNIQLO, shows us the joys of clothing as it presents its Spring/Summer collection for 2022. The collection provides fresh, comfortable, functional, and stylish pieces perfect for the season, whether one is in the city, nature, at home, or the seaside. 

 


THE JOYS OF CLOTHING

For this season, UNIQLO focuses on the simple joys that come to life when people and clothes find each other. In its latest lineup, there’s a blazer or dress that captures modern life in the city, a relaxing and roomy pair of shorts for that trip to the great outdoors, and breezy linens and madras shirts in lively colors that can be worn at the beach. UNIQLO presents four sub-themes this season and what ties all these together is that they bring happiness and comfort to its wearer during these sunny days.

The Joys of Skyline

City-dwellers enjoy the convenience of a cosmopolitan lifestyle: a neighborhood cafe with friendly baristas, a deli selling artisanal cheeses, and restaurants serving farm-to-table food. This urban way of life needs contemporary and modern clothes that can be worn at work or off-duty.

 The Joys of Landscape

Relish life off the grid, the rustling of the wind in the trees and the crunching of leaves under the shoes, with colors and textures that blend in with the scenery of nature.

 The Joys of Imagination 

Art and sophisticated designs stir the senses. Imaginations are supposed to wander and enter brilliant new worlds so UNIQLO found inspiration in vibrant and uplifting colors. 

 The Joys of Sun and Seaside

An afternoon by the beach while soaking in the sun and feeling the breeze calls for natural textures, linen fabric, and clothes that drape effortlessly over the body. These are comfortable to wear and more importantly, easy to shed off when it’s time for a dip.

Sparkly Eyes Makeup Look

 

A quick make up look and I added a tip on how to clean up those fallouts.  After years of being a Bridal Makeup Artist, I mastered the art of “cleaning” because in the eyes of Professional Photographers and Videographers, the skin of their subject must be 99.9% perfect.  

You know why I said so?  I have been called so many times by photograhers and videographers to “clean up” the face of their subject - it could be a smudged eyeliner, lipstick or falling eyeshadow!

So here, I am sharing a quick tip on how to prevent dirty-looking eyes.


Yes, you are free to zoom in my photo because I cleaned up well! :D *proud*


I used my newest eyeshadow palette Natasha Denona Palette which I got from Sephora.

Glass Skin Minus the Weight

 

Ah, the most requested tutorial - SKINCARE.

I guess a lot of you (like myself)  are skipping makeup because we don’t go out as much.  And when we do, we have a big face mask covering half of our faces!  Same as you, I have been investing myself more on skincare than anything else!

But before you start looking at my tired face, well, that’s the look of a tired mom without househelp and loves to watch K-drama until wee hours of the night —- so just focus on the skin :P

Please keep in mind that you don’t have to follow th exact products I used but look into your dresser and maybe check my application tecnique and steps?  

In skincare, the way you apply matters as much as the product itself.

Silkygirl GEN MATTE Cushion Foundation Review

 

Silkygirl is a drugstore brand that I’ve tried so many times because of checking other Beauty Bloggers’ review, especially those I follow from Singapore and Malaysia.  I am happy the brand is widely available locally with a wide range of makeup and even skincare products!

I recently get to try their newest foundation called the Silkygirl GEN MATTE Cushion Foundation.



Gen Matte Foundation
- This lightweight, oil-free foundation blends and melts into the skin without weighing it down, giving you a second-skin effect while providing the right amount of coverage to keep skin flawless.  Upon application, skin stays hydrated for up to 24 hours, so you don’t have to worry about those pesky foundation patches caused by any dry skin.

Shade: 03


Half face test 


As you can see, there is a light amount of coverage based from my half face test.  I applied 2 -3 layers of the foundation and the effect is almost skin-like and very natural to look at.  It is great news for those who prefer to use foundation with a tinted foundation effect.  No matter how much you apply, it yields a natural result.  With that, to thoes who are looking for mediumt o heavy coverage foundation may find this to be lacking in that department.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

 

This look was actually done for Chinese New Year.  I wore Red Lipstick from my favorite DIOR and tied my hair up into a curly bun and wore…well…red!  

I’ve decided to share this in time for Valentine’s Day before it is so close to Chinese New Year I find this to be a perfect LOOK for the Hearts’ Day too! 


This is actually a dress which I wore several times on events that requires Cocktail dresses.
