Etude House mini haul

Hello everyone! I just want to share these awesome stuffs that i bought from Etude House. It was actually my first to shop there. Well, i've entered their store before but i just looked around. As much as possible, i read reviews prior to buying. Anyway, here they are. :)

Etude House paper bag. I find it really cute, because it looks really girly! Don't you agree? :)

Stuffs i bought including the free mask. :)

Eyelash Curler silicon type

Vivid long falsies and Under lash. Just so you know, i panic buy false eyelashes. I have plenty here at home that i have yet to try.

LUCIDarling Fantastic Rouge Gloss #03

Proof 10 Eye Primer. I've read great reviews about this one and it's always out of stock so i just had to purchase it already.

Pearl Extract facial mask. I got this for free and i have no idea why. :))

So what do you think of my mini haul? Have you ever tried using any of these? 'Til my next post! x

Howdy September

Hello lovelies! How are you all? This is just a quick update since I had no time posting for a week. (I don't want to neglect my blog and awesome readers.) It's already September and almost everyone is raving about this month. The question is: Are you one of us? :)

Every year, people would happily welcome this time of the year. Why? It's because it only means that Christmas is just around the corner! Sale, shopping, gifts, cold weather, and more family time. Don't forget Halloween, too! Although i am blissful about it, i'm also kind of unhappy now that I've realized that time is flying really fast, so i wish it would slow down a bit. For all we know, tomorrow we're already welcoming 2012. Don't you feel the same way? Anyway, i don't want to spoil anything. God wants us to enjoy what we have now so let's! :)

Before i end this, i'd love to know if you are aware of any upcoming mall sales here in Metro Manila? What are you looking forward to now that September is already here? We're almost reaching the end of the year ladies. It's not yet too late to make it more memorable! :) x

In memory of Baby Tommy

Have you ever had a pet that you loved so much? If you did, then you know how it feels like to lose one. I lost Baby Tommy 2 weeks ago. My father found him lying outside of our house. Unfortunately, he got ran over by a vehicle. I cried for 1 whole day, and that was my first time to cry a river for a pet. The impact of the accident is different, compared to a loss of a diseased pet. It was really disheartening.

The night before that day, i already had this feeling that something bad might happen to Tommy. That being said, for a moment i blamed myself for not checking out on him before sleeping. My mom just told me that our Tommy saved someone in our family. If you're a Filipino, you might have heard of this. Your pet dies because they're actually saving you from sickness, or accident. That's how loyal they are.

Basically, nothing is this life lasts forever. We often forget that thought when we love so deeply. At some point in our lives, we will experience losing a loved one, therefore, we should always remember that everything will eventually be alright and it all happens for a reason. Stay strong in spite of all the heartaches you feel. :)

Here's baby Tommy (mixed breed of a mongrel and something :D)

Tommy is cute, right? :) Anyway, how about you? Have you ever experienced something like this? I'm here to listen! That's it for now. Bye. :)

Sadako slash the Grudge inspired look

Halloween is almost here, and so, i created this inspired look of Sadako and The Grudge. It's really effortless, i swear! Anyone can actually do it. I only edited the brightness and contrast of these pictures to emphasize the creepiness a bit! ;p Hope you like it.

 

What to use:

• Pure Cornstarch Powder (You can use a white pressed powder if you have one.)
• Black and white eyeliner 
• Eyelid primer
• Black eyeshadow

You can use any brand you like, but of course, for long lasting purposes, i would definitely recommend you use quality wise brands. I'm not saying that you buy the expensive ones. There are cheap products that are really promising if you know how to look! Anyway, is my make-up effective? Did it scare you? Please let me know! :) 'Til my next!

Hello again

It's been a long time since I blogged here. I've been busy with other stuffs, and I was really lazy to post here but recently, due to my love for make up, I've decided to add that here on my super random blog. I've been obsessed with it. Whenever I go to a mall, the beauty area is my first stop. :D It's funny because back in high school, my friends would tell me to use a baby powder on my face. I always say no and that I don't need it. Of course, I ended up using one until college. Only that, and nothing else, because I was afraid to try other beauty products, even pressed powders. Last year 2010, I finally had the guts to check out other make up products! Since I was a beginner, I had to look online for what products to buy for someone like me. I don't have a sister, and my mom isn't much of  a make up lover (she shared some of the basic products to use though) so the internet was pretty much my source! Going back, I remember buying a pressed powder, a red lip gloss, a small eyeshadow palette and a black eyebrow pencil. All items bought are from Careline, It's all cheap 'cause I was only starting and just experimenting. After that, my obsession for it stopped then last month, it started again. I'm now even fond of watching make up tutorials! Anyway, that's it for now. Wait for my next post! I'll be ranting about the products I discovered earlier this year, and the products that I'm loving now. :)
