Hey lovelies!  I haven't blogged in a while. I know.. pretty lame. I've just been busy with everything especially for my upcoming meet and greet this weekend! I'm not really sure if I will push that through since I haven't had a head count of who will attend.  It won't be as spectacular or anything, just a simple meet and greet so I will be able to meet you awesome ladies that read my blog and also watch my videos. I'm thinking of doing like an on the spot make over but I don't know yet..I'm undecided to tell you girls honestly.  And here's also another reason why I am blogging today. I am looking for models to build up my portfolio. I will be studying make up artistry soon, although I already know the basics I would definitely love to study more on the said field possibly doing this as a profession as well.  You girls know I love make up and I love doing make overs so if you have friends that would like to be prettified this Chris...

Hello!  I am back with a new haul!  I've actually put myself on my shopping haul I can't help it. Sometimes banning yourself will actually make you buy more so I told myself not to deprive myself anymore. Its just that.  Okay on the products! I will just post them individually ok? The prices will also be noted :) 

Happy Monday!  As of the moment I will be revamping this blog again so if you have any suggestions you can comment below or email me at alicemate1989@gmail.com. All comments and suggestions will be highly appreciated!  Soooo... how was your weekend? was it rainy like mine?  Seriously I don't like rainy days since it will just ruin your outfit and make up... shallow much teh? haha! I really have the same sentiment to those that are going back to school..especially those that are in college. I remember when I was in college, when it is raining hard I don't have to listen to the news because I know that college students still have to go to school and my only reaction was.. ano kami waterproof?!?! But alas being a student is something we have to overcome because once that we finished college I tell you that you will definitely miss it! 

Happy Wednesday Lovelies!  I am back with a new post about getting rid of those nasties!  One of the things I think most girls get conscious about as we grow older is having large pores. I am no exception to that since I've noticed it a lot thru pictures of myself when I was younger compared to my current pictures. 

Happy Monday!  Ever since my blogs and my youtube channel got noticed at work, most of my colleagues ask me to do their make up a lot. I'm not an expert and I'm not planning to claim to be soon because I just love doing it so there is nothing bad with that right?  On today's post I will give you some tips about office make up and also show you a make over I did to my officemate. 

Uneven skin is one of the problems most mature skin have nowadays with lots of sun exposure and also other factors can cause our skin tone to be uneven.  I could say I have had episodes of having dull skin which is kinda depressing sometimes because a lot of people I know ask me if I'm going through something which actually is not happening! Here are some tips to reduce or to keep away uneven skin.

Pimple free me a couple of months back Hello lovelies!  I know its been a while since I did a make up 101. I seriously forgot doing make up 101 posts since I don't know what to post anymore. I know silly me >_< but I actually got some ideas since most of my younger friends ( tanda ko na! ) had been bugging me about it so for that I will make a series of posts about  The Nasties.   

Hello ladies!  I am back with a new make up collection post! I actually forgot this since I haven't used my computer for some time. I know bad me! >_< But thankfully I saw this picture when I was cleaning up my memory cards. 

  I am having second thoughts if Summer has really arrived since its been raining for a couple of days already. And because of that I have been feeling iffy a couple of days ago, thankfully I was able to get rid of the colds already so I can get back to work and also with blogging.  Getting sick doesn't mean that we have to look the part right? That is one thing I don't want to be since being presentable can give you a jumpstart in your day. I've actually started loving putting on make up not because I have to but because I love to. 

Since I started this blog and also doing beauty related videos on my youtube channel and do make up gigs on the side, I have collected a lot of make up which quite honestly I thought was small but when I look at it now its HUGE. I was able to collect these much from my purchases while some are gifts from my friends and family or stuff that I won from online contests and such. I was really surprised because while conceptualizing with this post I thought of just doing one video but when I saw all of my make up I thought to just make them in parts so the video will be short and you won't be confused with all the products I will be featuring.

Happy Monday ladies!  I have been out of the loop for a while now because of some personal issues I need to settle, but don't worry it won't involve me leaving you guise! I just have to settle some plans I'm making about my next out of town trip and I need to make the necessary planning and logistics thing because I want everything to be okay when that day comes. Ugh just talking about it makes me want to cover up and say PLEASE MAKE IT MAY ALREADY!

Hello lovelies! I'm really sorry if I haven't blogged this a bit sooner. As of the moment we are still renovating my studio so I've been pretty busy these days. On today's post I will be sharing to you the stuff that I've purchase last February. I didn't actually thought that I will be buying so much stuff last month because I was hoping to do major cosmetic purchases around April or May but..oh well. I did went overboard but I will actually give away some of the products that I bought last month so I feel really good about that. Most of the products that I will be showing in this post will be products that I will do a product review soon which is really exciting since trying out new products are a good thing to do if you are in the beauty blogging industry, because not only will you be trying out new products but also you are sharing your opinion about it.

I have always loves the little mermaid, but I can't seem to think of myself as Ariel. I have a very wild imagination and I have actually made my own mermaid. My mermaid would have a bluish green fish tail. Her hair would be blonde that has some blue high lights. I was planning on asking my brother to draw her but he has been busy also so I wasn't able to do it. If ever my brother is free I will ask him to draw it and I will post it on my facebook page for sure. 

Hello ladies! Happy Thursday! My goodness its already Thursday again.. I have a lot of posts to share to you girls but since internet at home is not cooperating that well I have to settle blogging at work for now. Thank goodness our company allows me to do my pride and joy (you read that right!).  On today's post I will be sharing to you my review about my latest BB cream: Maybelline's BB stick!  If you remember I also did a review on the first Maybelline BB cream that they offered. That BB cream was a little too oily for my skin since it contains glycerine and other substances that can make my skin produce more oil. I think other users of that BB cream had forwarded it to the company that the company made a separate one for those with combination- oily skin.  without flash I was really thankful with that because I do love their BB cream because the shade is really close to my pale skin. Sometimes having pale skin is a bad thing because its a little...

Hello ladies! Happy Tuesday!  On today's post I will be making a review about a primer that I have been using for some time now and it is the Urban Decay Primer Potion! (sfx: woot woot!) Make up primers are basically products that can make your make up last longer and also make the colors vibrant or make the face less oily. If you have oily skin, it is really best to invest in a good face and eye primer to let your make up last longer through the day with minimal touch ups. If you   I have been hearing a lot of buzz about this product ever since I started watching tutorials on youtube. I admit that I was really really curious about this but can't seem to get my hands into one because there is no Urban Decay outlet here in the Philippines. You can purchase this online like on Digitaltrancase's online store.  But due to having shortage of funds and also I don't have a lot of time browsing to get the best deal, I didn't get to buy this product. I ...

Happy Friday! How is your Friday so far? I hope that you are having a great day so far ^^, I was supposed to post this a couple of days back but I haven't got the time and also I was quite busy here at work but finally I am able to share my latest look. 

Happy Friday ladies!  I am back to work today, ironic isn't it? since I just came from a staycation? haha! but nonetheless I love to be back to work!  On today's post will be about the 3rd look I've come up with the Urban Decay Book of Shadows vol 4. I was mainly inspired with this look because I am really excited for summer. I love summer the most although its such a drag sometimes when it is too hot.

Hello ladies! How was your weekend? I had a great time last Saturday and Sunday since it was a productive and fun weekend for me, but enough about that let's talk about the topic for today: When to throw away old products from your vanity/make up area? I have already talked about when to throw away old make up in which you can check here but how about other non make up stuff? Here are some of what I've come up with.

Hello ladies! I am back with another look from the Urban Decay Book of Shadows 4. I don't have a name for this since its a neutral look which you can use for everyday.
