Purple Friday. :)

Hey ya'll. It's Friday once again, TGIF. So how was your week ladies? Was it fun? Stressful? Mine was fun and stressful, and it's all because of school. For 3 straight nights, I have been playing around with makeup, again. Now, I'm gonna be sharing the look that I did today. It's another purple, I wanted it to match my purple shirt. Sorry if the quality sucks, my camera's not the best. -_- Been very vain lately. LOL.














Camwhorin' much? Just excuse the face, I was bored and all. Thanks for dropping by ladies. Take care, and ciao! :)

Edit: Today's Saturday, and I made this yesterday. :D

Again? Are you kidding me?

Hola ladies. I just wanna share with you a look that I did just awhile ago, I was bored so I played a little. It's a neutral look, BTW. Yes, another neutral look. IDK why, but I'm really in to neutral looks.






Notice my brows? I asked my mom to pluck it last weekend, cause I went home. I think she did a pretty good job, instead of going to the salon and getting it shaped, less hassle.

That's that for my short post. Thanks for reading. :)

Long time no blog. :)

Hey girls. How are you all doing? Just writing this post to share something. Notice anything different? O_o Go on, obseeeeerve carefully. Got it?

~Yes! I got myself a new banner. Woot! Gracie, who has been my friend in blogger for quite sometime already made me this. It was so sweet of her, she is really sweet, TBH. I enjoy our late night conference with Thia. Thank you Gracie for being so generous and kind. Thanks for being a good friend. And also, to Thia, thanks too for being a good friend, advance happy birthday. ;)

That's it ladies, just dropped by to say hi and thank you. I know I haven't been posting anything lately, but no worries, I'm still alive, just lurking around blogger. Take care ya'll. Sending out my love to all of you. :)

Plaaaaay Time. :)

Today's a lazy Sunday. We're stuck here inside our room, doing nothing. What's a bored girl gonna do? Play around with makeup, yes. :) So I used the CG e/s I bought yesterday and came up with a sorta everyday look. I'ma call this, the Pink and Taupe Everyday Eye Look. ;)

I used my Adorned with Grace sample shadow in Sensitive, and Cover Girl Eye Enhancer in Tapestry Taupe, which I looove. :)

The light's washing out the color, I'm sorry. But that's it. Nothing special. Ciao ladies. ;)

Routine Tag. :)

I was tagged I think last week by sis Cha, thanks girl! It's the Routine Tag, which basically shows your daily routine. My routine's pretty simple and boring, I don't put a lot of makeup everyday, because I just think it's not appropriate for school, I mean like, being a freshman and all that, I think I should tone it down.

Now here's my daily rountine..


First, I wash my face with this soap that my mom gave me. It contains Ganoderma, Glutathione and Grapeseed. 3Gs? o.O Anyways, I like it cause it smells good and makes my skin soooft. :)


Second, moisturize using my Celeteque Facial Moisturizer. Moisturizing is a must! I like it cause it's cheap, water-based and oil-free. I've had this for 3 months already, and I haven't finished one tube, a little goes a long way.


The third one consists my face stuff. First, I apply concealer on my under-eye area, I'm using the NYX Concealer in a Jar in Beige, I like it cause it makes me look more awake. Then I apply my powder which is the Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free Face Powder in Natural. I like it cause it goes on smoothly, and it feels light on the skin. I don't use foundation yet, cause I'm still on the hunt for a good and cheap one, what would you suggest ladies? And lastly, I apply my cheek tint. It's Careline's Lip and Cheek Tint. I've been using this for quite sometime now, I like it cause it gives me that natural flush, and it's very long-lasting, and not to mention the price, Ithink I bought this for P80 which is like less that $2. I don't use powder blush, and yes, I'm still on the hunt for one too, any suggestions? :)


Fourth, I prime my lips with my trusty petroleum jelly.


Fifth is the lippies. I only have 3 lippies, and I switch it up everyday. I use my NYX Round Lipstick in Tea Rose and Indian Pink, and my L'oreal Color Juice Stick in Personali-tea.


And last, but definitely not the least, I curl my lashes using this eyelash curler with no brand. It's cheap, but it does its job pretty well. I dont use mascara, cause I don't have one, and I think it's not that necessary for like an everyday kinda thing.

That's it ladies. Nothing special really. Now I am tagging the following lovelies:
- Gracie
- Khymm
- Maui
- Gem
- Manju
- Sofia
- Becky
-And all of you ladies reading this. :)

That's that. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Sending out my hugs and kisses to all of you. Take care. :)

Play Time. :)

It's like, nearly 3 am, yet I'm still here, playing around with makeup. This isn't good anymore. Oh well, it's alright, cause I'm not that sleepy yet. I tried doing something purple. Just to warn you, my camera sucks, the lighting sucks, the look itself sucks. LOL. So anyways, here's the eye look I came up with.











That's it. Still, excuse the thick and untidy brows, and also the pimples on my forehead. The BRTC BB cream might be causing those. Well that just sucks, I liked how the BB cream looks on my skin *sigh*. I still have a whole lot of BB creams to test, and hopefully, it'll not cause another break-out. Fingers crossed ladies. I have to go get some sleep now. Good mornight. Ciao! :)

Collective Haul. :)

Ola chicas! It's a Saturday night, woot! What have you all been doing? Well if you'd ask me, I've been pretty much doing.. nothing. :) So anyways, I'm gonna be sharing some stuff that I've bought since last week. It's not much, just some things that I got online, and from a bazaar.

First up..







Yes, BB cream samples, again. This time, it's Missha and Lioele. Got these from Ebay.

Second..

The seller included a very cute freebie. :)

I also got this from Ebay. It's L'oreal Color Juice Stick, and I got the shade Personali-tea. I mainly got this because Xteeener from YouTube likes this lippie. And it was on sale, got this for P150 ($3), how could I ever resist? ;)

And last but not the least..







Me and my friend, Greysh, went to MTS. She told me there was a bunch of Cover Girl eye shadows for P50 ($1), and yet again, how could I ever resist that? It was a flee market. There was a lot of clothes, bags, and shoes. I originally bought just 3 shadows, then went back to get another 1. :D

That's it. I've been buying stuff non-stop. This will surely be the last, cause I have no money to spend anymore. -_- Reviews coming up in a couple of days, or weeks. ;) Ya'll have a great weekend. Take care. :D

Friday Madness. :)

Oops. I was gonna say TGIF, but when I looked at the clock, it's already midnight, so TGIS then. ;) And yeeees, it's Saturday, I'm going home later, cause I don't wanna miss the Foam Party. Gensan's Tuna Festival, baby! It's time to par-taaaay! :D

Anyways, yesterday, which was Friday, my class ended at 2:30 and my next class was at 5:50. What's a lonely girl gotta do? Hit the malls, woot! But before that, I went back to the dorm to get some money, when I was logging in my name at the guard house, Mr. Guard handed me a purple and white bag. That was quite unexpected. Normally it would take 2-3 days for my stuff to arrive, when it's Air21. Thiamere, whom I really admire for being a kind friend, was unloading some stuff from her makeup stash. I then grabbed the chance cause she gave really cheap prices.

I was uber excited that's why I opened it right away, without taking pictures. I totally forgot. D:

Kudos to Thiamere for the effort in packing it. It was wrapped with all these bubble wrap, and OMG, it was freakin' hard to open. :))

This is what I was looking forward to the most. Thanks to Gracie for allowing me to have it. ;)

She also gave me some stuff. An eye shadow palette which would be really helpful during my play time, which is when I'm making my 'EOTD', eek. So not used to saying that. D: And some BB cream sample. Missha, at last, we've met. :D

Thank you Thia for such wonderful stuff. Thanks for being so generous. Me love you! :]

And on to my small haul. As what I've said, I went to the malls, yes mallS. I went to this one mall cause the last time I was there, the full-sized Maybelline Angelfit Liquid Foundation was 50% off, and it was so cheap. Unfortunately, it was all sold out. The SA told me that there might be a sale at the other mall too, but I decided to stroll around. I was searching for some mini drawer, like the storage thing, a new home for my makeup. But it was so expensive, I decided not to get it. I went to the other mall, and their foundation wasn't 50% off, bummer. I decided to search for some mini drawer, and there wasn't any. I think I'm just gonna buy the Hello Kitty drawer which I've been wanting for how many weeks now. I didn't want to go home, I had to buy something.



~I decided to get the Maybelline Clear Smooth Powder. I've seen a lot of girls use it, and it was cheap, that's why I got it. I'll do a review about it after taking it to a road test. ;)

After hitting the malls, I went home and rested for a little bit. My class was at 5:50, but I went to school at 6, I was that tired. After how many minutes of waiting for our teacher, he called and told us that there would be no class. Darn it. I should have went home, like home home. -_- Oh well, have a great and safe weekend ladies. Take care. :)

Playing around. :D

Instead of studying, I was playing around with some shadows that my mom gave me. As what I've said on my last post, practice makes perrrfect. I have to keep practicing, and it's fun learning one step a time. And yes, still got limited resources.

See? Now that's what I call limited resources, I don't even own a mascara. D:

Just another attempt. :D

I should definitely get my brows threaded already. Eeek. -_-

Update and a veeery little Haul. :D

Hey chicas! :) I haven't been blogging that much, just posting some contests and giveaways. But now I'm here for a little update and haul.

Gracie asked me why I don't do EOTDs, like other girls. I told her I don't have enough tools. LOL. And I dont have the guts because I'm not good with makeup, at all. But for the past few days, I've been playing around with my limited resources. I'ma show ya'll an attempted EOTD, which is a total fail, BTW. :)) Please don't laugh, cause I'm just starting out. Practice make perfect, right? :)

FAIIIIIL!

Excuse the messy hair, oily face and thick brows. ;)

Now let's get to my haul. I ordered some BRTC samples 2 weeks ago, and at last, it arrived safely.

It came all the way from Taiwan.

You know what's funny though? One baggie have 6 different BRTC samples. I paid for just one baggie. I received 2 envelopes, I was like o_O.

And now I have 12 samples. Lucky me. :D

That's it ladies. Enjoy the rest of your week. TCCIC. :]
