Happy Friday lovely ladies!  I haven't blogged for a while because I experienced some weird allergy that hindered me in shooting tutorials (bummer) Luckily all the nasties have subsided so its no problemo. While I was having the nasties, I actually tried to stop using all skin care product and also make up but I can't because I need to look put up at work. So I settled in just using eye brow pencil, lipstick and powder. 

WU! Manila, a new magazine in town has officially launched its brand through WU Fest 2013.    As what they always say, whether you're fresh off the plane or a balikbayan rediscovering your beloved birthplace, WU! is here to help you find out Whats Up in Manila. Or should we say, what's awesome about Manila! And that's what they did! They've promoted anything and everything awesome about Manila through remarkable entertainment such as the bamboo bike display, yummy food -- not necessarily all Filipino but the hospitality made all the difference, and live music from talented Filipino underground artists.   And speaking of awesomeness; one booth in the said fest that caught everyone's attention is the Sprinto booth th...

Sunflowers or Fleur de Soleil in French is a very beautiful flower. Seeing a myriad of these is quite a scene for me if you ask me since I only get to see them when I go running in UP Diliman.  Besides from the aesthetic value did you know that sunflower can be used for medicinal and to beautify our skin? I didn't really believe it but as of checking it out sunflowers can alleviate constipation and reduce "bad" cholesterol or LDL cholesterol.  Besides from its medicinal properties, Sunflower oil in general can also be used in our skin!  Some of the things it can do is fasten the healing properties of wounds, soften the skin and also be a great make up remover.  I am currently using Human Nature's Sunflower oil which my mom got me a couple of months back. I didn't really expect much since I know that I will just use this as a make up remover but I was dead wrong. I actually tried this product out with its claims.  Some of its claims ...

Hello lovelies!   As you may know I am a HUGE Blackjack fan so when news came out that 2ne1 will be coming back I was jumping up and down like a little girl in a hello kitty store ( no offense Barbie I just prefer Hello Kitty than you ) 

Hello girls!  I have been in youtube for about 4 years now and I know there had been different videos of other youtubers saying that they have received packages just because.  I do know that there are people that are so kind to do that but I never believed I would be one of those ladies!  Last week, I received an email from Dang or BrascaMargaux on youtube telling me how much she didn't like me at first but had grown to love me. I know its pretty weird but that is what she said! :D  Then at the latter part of her email she said she would like to send me some items just because. I was totally floored when she said that. My only reaction was TALAGA?~!?!?! (REALLY!?!?) I am quite a skeptic but I still believed in her words and sent her my mailing address. I wasn't really expecting what she would be sending me. I was thinking she would just send me a couple of lipsticks or something ( nag expect pa rin lol ) And she sent me these! (look ...

Hello ladies!  Last July 6, I was able to attend Tenisha Live in Manila over at Seventh High in Bonifacio Global City. The event was basically as a pre party for 1 Music Festival that will be held in Singapore this September 20 and 21 2013. As part of the celebration, Seventh High was able to have Tenishia, the most successful DJ/ Producer in Malta to perform last Saturday!  Tenishia is an acclaimed and multi awarded internation DJ that had garnered awards at the Malta Awards such as Best Newcomer in 2005, Best Live Performance 2005, and Best Dance Tune Award for three years in a row. Talk about achievement right? I was expecting a big crowd and there was a huge crowd that came! Its been a while since I went clubbing so I was quite conscious about it. But thankfully the people at Seveth high were very nice and accommodating that even if you go alone you will surely have a good time! BUT PLEASE its much better to go with your friends ok? I really had fun at S...

Last July 6 I went to A. Venue in Makati to join WU! Fest 2013. A little background about WU! Fest. Wu! Manila is actually the brains behind this event. Its a yearly activity to showcase anything and everything about Manila. The event actually started about Lunch time in which there were a lot of booths you can visit from food, booze to activity booths. There were booths from Bistecca which has the yummiest beef and mashed potatoes ever! There was also some games prepared by the organizers like the Mojo challenge which you have to shoot some sand bags and by the end of the event they will raffle a cash prize who were able to succeed with the challenge. There was also the Sumo Challenge in which I did take part of in which I won! The prize was a free drink and also their Mojo Booster. Will do a post about their booster drink on my food blog so watch out for it! There was also a Sprinto booth! Sprinto is an eye wear brand that carries different designs...

My daily routine would usually to Get up, clean my room, shower, go to work, work, then go home and sleep, and eat in between.  These are activities we’ve turned into a routine everyday—give or take a few parties and/or vacations if you may. Wouldn't it be great if we do these things in a different way? Like having an mp3 player that you could bring anywhere to enjoy the music that you like. It's actually quite possible with Philips SoundDot. According to Ms. Poi San Mok, Philips Marketing Manager, The SoundDot can be used for almost any activity. With it's compact package and with an advanced yet delightfully simple design, making it a reliable mp3 player that’s small in size but big on fun.

Being designed for convenience, these mp3 players are equipped with LED and sound indicators for swift navigation. Each SoundDot includes a built-in clip for hands-free u...

I think in a person's life we have specific highlights of our lives which is something that we take pride on.  I think this one is a definite part of the highlights in my life.  Last Sunday, June 30, 2013 I was invited to be interviewed on radio. I never really expected that this will happen to me but I am thankful. I was interviewed on DZIQ 990AM Radio Inquirer's program Pera at Kabuhayan. I was supposed to be  interviewed for only 30 minutes but I was really surprised that they interviewed me for 1 hour!  Being a MassComm graduate, I know that radio broadcasting - especially in tandems or groups, there should be chemistry and also harmony in thought. It needs a smooth blend of thoughts from the hosts that makes the program enjoyable to listen to.  Pera and Kabuhayan is really nice since they talk about topics that talk about career, business, investment and the likes. They do have segments that help their listeners learn things like...

Hello dear lovelies! I know this post is kinda late so please forgive me.. Last Saturday, I was able to attend the Social Media Weekend 2013 in glorietta. The main purpose of this is to celebrate the help of social media to the world.  Social media is basically the online community that we are part of. It can be Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Youtube, Blogs and other social media networks! 

Being a Full Time ESL Teacher/ Part time Make Up Artist and Blogger can be quite hectic - you better believe it! With my full time job and part time combined, its a chaotic disaster, thankfully I have an organizer to keep me..well...organized!
