My take on K-Palette 24h Real Lasting Eyepencil Waterproof in Deep Brown


I got a complimentary set of K-Palette 24h Real Lasting Eyepencil for review from the local distributor a few months ago. Since I am busy with my baby, I don't have enough time on my hands to prettify myself so pardon me for taking a long time to write about my experience after receiving the package.

K-Palette 24h Real Lasting Eyepencil Waterproof in Deep Brown PhP 795

K-Palette 24h Real Lasting Eyepencil is highly pigmented and easy to use. It has a softer lead therefore it does not tug my lids as it glides upon application. 

Since I have almond-shaped eyes, I have to draw a thicker line on my upper eyelids to make my eyes appear bigger and fiercer. I am not used to drawing on my lower lash line though, you will find out why after the break...

Gradient Nails (OMBRE) by Flirt Waxing Lounge

My event: December 13, 2011

Flirt Waxing Lounge
91A East Capitol Drive corner Sta. Clara St.,
Kapitolyo, Pasig
5848819

Angela invited me to try out a fairly new salon in Kapitolyo, Pasig, Flirt Waxing Lounge. Hey, don't be fooled by its name because it not only offers waxing but a whole lot more like my gradient nail art for example!

gradient nail art- IT manicure for the IT girl---> that's me!

The owner let us pick whatever design that we wanted and I was dead set on giving gradient nails a try! Using nail polish with glitters or whatever you call those dusts as base coat can make your nail polish lasts longer. It actually strengthens the nails and protects it from chipping.

Summer Hair 2012... A New Me!

Last Thursday, DH accompanied me to the salon so I can have my hair cut. I have been sporting long and sexy curls since I started this blog in 2008. I figured what have I got to lose, right? If I didn't like my hair short, I will just have to wait for it to grow back or buy a wig or what they now call "hair extensions" lol

 no, I am not suffering from a bad break up ; p

I went back to Bang's Tony & Jackey in Tomas Morato and asked for Anna- senior stylist. She already trimmed my hair before so I know I am in good hands. I noticed the look on her face when I asked her to cut my hair short. I asked her "Round face?" She replied with a resounding "Yes!" She proceeded by inspecting my hair and said "Not too short... long here, shorter here!"

Intrigued by what she means? Read after the break for the result...


The Face Shop Stylist Silky Hair Color Cream in Orange Brown (8O)

An-yŏng-ha-se-yo! I just got back from Korea last January 1st. That explains my lack of posts lol Anyway, this is just the first in a series of Korean entries. 

Hold your breath because after my Red Wine hair craze, I decided to dye my hair yet again with... The Face Shop Stylist Silky Hair Color Cream in Orange Brown!


 The Face Shop Hair Color Cream in Orange Brown (8O) PhP180 (W4400)

You must think I am crazy, right?! Well, I am not ; p I just want to experiment with different hair colors. So, on my 8th day in Korea, I finally succumbed and turned myself into a Korean! Ok, not really, it's just my hair color ; p But you get my point, right? lol

Hair Color Experience at Hair Asia

My visit: July 23, 2011

Hair Asia
35 Judge Jimenez St.,
Kamuning, Quezon City
9269480 415ASIA

DH and I have passed by the humungous facade of Hair Asia several times in the past. A huge tarpaulin ad is placed outside with services and corresponding rate written on it. When my friends and I were on our way to Trinoma and passed by the salon, I told them that the salon intrigues me and how I wanted to check it out. 

I was persuading DH to try the salon's PhP100 hair cut because even if he goes to a salon with a   PhP500 price tag, the style and cut remains the same. One night, DH came home sporting a new hair cut. I learned that he had his hair cut at Hair Asia for PhP200. Apparently, the PhP100 hair cut is done by a junior stylist. DH went with the senior stylist, Raymond.

my mahogany brown hair

If you have been following me over FaceBook or Twitter, you know that I have been thinking of coloring my hair ever since I was told that I have white hairs sticking out of my head. Yikes! I have been researching about products and inquiring rates in several salons. It cross my mind to apply my own hair color at home but that would be scary for a first timer like myself. My gawd! I can't imagine I even think of strawberry blond as my new hair color! hahaha Well, my hair color turned out exactly the way I wanted. Read more after the break...

Shoes: SUKI

It's been over a year since I started looking for shoes to replace my old ones. You see, I am not a shoe addict. I only have less than 10 shoes in my closet, slippers not included. I have shoes in white, black and brown just the basic colors to match any of my clothes. Recently, all my shoes have become unwearable simultaneously. Good thing, when AC and I were shopping in Landmark, Trinoma a few weekends ago, I stumbled upon SUKI. I often saw SUKI brand in Greenhills Shopping Center but have not had the chance to buy one mainly because I still have shoes to wear. 

 white PhP959


I bought this one in Greenhills Shopping Center. Easy to slip on. I really like the design as my toes are not protruding in the front of the shoes. I have been looking for shoes that can hold all my toes in place haha I started wearing it today. Both my little toes are now a little numb from the front clasp. I needed to break this shoes in lol



I wanted open toe shoes and SUKI has them and in different colors. I bought two designs in their Trinoma branch and one in their Greenhills branch.
