I need your suggestions ladies. Please and Thank You. :)

Good morning lovely chicas! Happy 22nd of July. OMG. July's gonna end soon?! D: Well that was fast huh? So anyways, our university doesn't have class for like 3 days. Add the weekend, and that gives me 5 days of freedom! Woot! So later, I'm gonna be going home, back to my city, which gives me three hours, just sitting on a bus, doing nothing, nothing at all. With no laptop, and no cellphone (FYI, my phone was stolen about 2 or 3 weeks ago, it was snatched by 2 guys with a motorcycle. I know, right? Tragic. -_-).

Alrighty, let's get to the main point, shall we? This post is all about NYX again. Yes, I know. I'm a NYX whore, I'm sorry, can't help it. I'm enamored. I'd just like to hear from you ladies, what is your favorite NYX round lipstick, round lipgloss and mega shine lipgloss? That's it, if you have any suggested shades, just leave a comment below. Thanks ya'll. Have a great week everyone, keep safe! :]

NYX eh? o_O

While I was blog.hopping yesterday, I came across Sis Angie's post (Do check her out, BTW. Here's a link to here blog site.). Alrighty, on to the topic. She said that she was lemming for some NYX lippies, and so I suggested a site. As we all know, NYX isnt available locally here in the Philippines. I have heard that there's a mall in Cebu which carries NYX, but we can't go to Cebu just to buy NYX, right? ;) I've been looking for some NYX products for quite sometime also, but ordering from infamous sites like Cherry Culture and Makeup Masala wasnt an option, because just like her, I dont have a paypal account, or some credit card. I found a lot of resellers on multipy though. They're selling it for a higher price, but it's understandable, cause they have to pay for the taxes and stuff. But I also found resellers who sell the products for a much more higher price. I found a newly-opened store on multiply who sells NYX stuff for reasonable prices. Though her products arent onhand just like other stores, there's some NYX products and L.A Colors that will be arriving by the 27th of July. I've also reserved some lippies, which I'm very excited about. Not only does she carry NYX, nor L.A Colors, but also, she has a wide range of brands to choose from. So if you're interested, Click Away chica. ;) Happy shopping ya'll. :]

Last night, oh wait, make that awhile ago, when I was about to go to sleep, I checked eBay and looked at some random stuff. Yet again, I found some good finds. Not thinking if it's authentic nor brand new, I placed a bid. -_- Stupid me. Apparently, I'm winning. Noooo. The bidding ends after 2 days, I sure do hope someone bids higher so I wont get those shadows. ;)

Alrighty, I'ma go back to sleep now. Good morning chicas. :]

UPDATE: I've just been outbid. Oh good. :) So anyways, chicas from the Philippines, if you want 3 MAC eyeshadows then go bid. Click here ladies. :D

- Nicole <3

An early morning post. :)

If you live in the Philippines, well then, good morning chicas. :) Wow. It's already July 19 eh? Time flies oh so fast. Yes, I'm still up, and it's nearly 1am. Can't sleep, and I'm hella bored. Been blog-hopping the whole day, which was my time-waster, instead of studying, I was blog-hopping. Bad Nicole, bad. I'm sorry, I can't help it. ;) So anyways, dorm's really lame right now, all the people went home, or went out, lucky them. While I'm here, stuck. I just wanna share with you guys, or should I say girls, some random photos. Enjoy. ;)

That's me doing my classmate's make-up. It's the fashion show thing for school. Full concentration baby. :))

NOTE TO SELF: Never use a small sponge tip applicator when..
1. Doing other people's make-up.
2. When you're under time pressure.

~It was so hard cause we were in a hurry. Good times. ;)

Here's to show how vain I could get at times:

ARTDECO Eyeshadow Base

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


I'm on the hunt for the perfect eyeshadow base. But, UDPP and TFSI waaaay too expensive, and I'm just a student, with no extra $$$. On the other hand, I've read a lot of good reviews about the ARTDECO eyeshadow primer, and I'm dying to get my hands on one of those. It's by far the cheapest primer that I know, and I wanna try it so bad. So anywho, we have an ARTDECO stand in one of the malls here in Davao, unfortunately, they have no eyeshadow base. I think the SL doesnt even know what that is. Probably out of stock?o_O I dont think so, i've been checking the stand for months, but still no eyeshadow base.-_- I guess I'll just have to wait a little more huh? PATIENCE WOMAN, PATIENCE! :))

This was just some random post. I should be studying by now, but I'm not. D: Oh well, I gotta go, I have to study my ass out. Have a great weekend Chicas. Ciao! :D

I've been tagged! 7 Sides of My Heart. <3

A new friend of mine, Manju, tagged me. She's such a sweet and pretty girl. And she also loves Gossip Girl, just like me! :D Anywho, thanks for tagging me Manju. This is actually my first tag, so yay for me. :D

So the tag goes like this: "with as much creativity as you can muster, show your heart in: a picture, a poem, a song (or piece of music), a phrase (or quote), an item of clothing, a place, and (just for fun) a Disney princess. if you want to join in, tag 6 more blogs."

When I first read this, I was like, O_O. I dunno what to write. Oh well, I'ma try my best. :)


1. Picture (I actually got 2 pictures, is that okay? ;D)

This picture was taken 3 years ago, it's our first and last family picture. One and only family picture. :( But yeah, its a long story though. I wont be the person I am today without them, I love my family. :)

My chicas, my girlfriends. We've been through a lot. And I love them all for being such good friends. :D


2. a Poem
Honestly, I'm not a poetic kinda person, so this one's hard. -_- But oh well, i chose the poem How Do I Love Thee? by Elizabeth Barrett Browning. I knew about this poem because of our english class back in highschool, and it goes like this:

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thee with a passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.


3. a Song
Currently, I'm loving the song The Show by Lenka. It's such a cute song, and it talks about life. I love this part the most:


I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don't know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why


4. a Phrase/Quote

'If you love me, let me know. If not, please let me go.'

Of course, who wants to have a broken heart? Im sure I don't. :)


5. an Item of Clothing

boxer shorts Pictures, Images and Photos


BOXER SHORTS! love love love these things. It has cute designs and it's veeery comfy. ;)


6. a Place

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I don't like swimming at the beach, but I love sitting by the sea shore. I like the sound of the waves crashing, and how the cold wind hits my skin. The sea's just too calming. :)


7. a Disney Princess

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I love all Disney princesses. I all envy them for being so pretty and for having such hot and handsome prince-charmings. I grew up loving and looking up to Pochahontas. She's very simple, yet pretty. I also love the strength she carries within. :)


Yay! I've done my very first tag. Well, that was fun. ;) Now I gotta tag 6 pretty ladies. I am tagging:
1. Sofia
2. Jing
3. Tiffany
4. Crystal
5. Mitch
6. Golden

I hope you have fun doing the tag just like me. Enjoy chicas. ;)

NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss Review

Ola chicas! Today I'm gonna be doing a review about the 2 NYX lip gloss that I got from EBAY last week. It's the NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss, also known as the Goddess of the Night Lip Gloss, which is which? I have no idea. ;) I got these two glosses all for the price of P155, which is like $3.10. Good deal, right? I got the shades Lollipop and Sweetheart. :) Here are some of the pictures:

Here are the swatches of the 2 lip gloss that I got:

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

This one's Sweetheart, and it's a pink frosty color. When i first applied it on my lips, it was like, BAM! Pamela Anderson baby! :D But yeah, i didn't like it that much at first, it was too baby pink, and too pornstar-ish that it didnt look nice at all. This color doesnt suit me at all. But then when I applied it with just a thin layer, it was waaay better. I think it would be better if you'd apply lipstick under it which is a darker shade when you use this lipgloss. This shade is better when ya'll lighter-skinned girls use it. :)

The other one's Lollipop. I am inlove with this lipgloss, like for real. I think this would be suitable for any skin color. It's a peachy nude color, this would be perfect for an everyday simple makeup, to a dark smokey eye look. Very versatile i must say. I think all Filipinas should get this color cause it's really nice. :D And oh! i first heard about this color because of Ana, also known as DuhPinayPrincezz on youtube, she said it's her new favorite lipgloss, so i asked her if it suits Filipina girls, and she said yes. So, thank you Ana. :)

Alrighty, lets get to the point, the Pros and the Cons.

Pros:
-not too sticky
-not too thick
-wide range of colors
-very pigmented
-very cheap
-the doe foot applicator does the job perfectly

Cons:
-the artificial cherry smell (i could handle this, but i dunno with other people.)
-not that long-lasting
-not available locally, which SUCKS! -.-

Will I repurchase? YES! Definitely. Its real cheap, and it has a lot of colors to choose from, and I want to get them all. I'm inlove with NYX mega shine lipgloss. <3 style="text-align: right;">Nicole <3

just turned 17. woot! :D

July 14, Tuesday, it felt like a normal lame day, like nothing special's going on, but, truth is, it was my freakin' 17th bday baby! Belated Happy Birthday Nicole! :D Soooo yeah, before that, i kept on singing the song from the movie Sound of Music, and it goes like this, 'I am 16, going on 17, I know that I'm naive.' :) Love that song! Anyways, it was our prelims, that's why I wasnt THAT excited, bummer. It was also my first birthday away from my fam in Gensan, which was sad. :( Later that night, while I was busy surfing the net with my dormies, Angela and Quenny, my highschool classmates came over and brought cake and a whole bunch of balloons. It was so sweet of them. Thank you you two. ;) I got to share the cake with some of my dormies, and had the chance to talk to Mr. Swiss and Mr. Switzerland, effin' hot. :D

i wanna share with ya'll some of the pictures:
