Versatile MakeUp!

My Versatile Makeup includes:

1. SnoeBeauty What's Up Brow! Tinted Eyebrow Pencil Wax in Ochre - a dual ended eyebrow pencil with a spool brow brush to create fuller looking brows. Plus, I use this too on my waterline to create a soft line around my eyes. Sidenote: SnoeBeauty is a proud Filipino brand.
2. Aritaum StylePop Juicy Tint in Red Mango - I try to skip full on swiped lipstick as it smudge with my baby's mittens, clothes and face. This lip cheek tint let my tired face looked a little livelier and refreshed without over doing it (full on lipstick does that sometimes). My cheeks turned a slight flush of color, hiding my anemic lack-of-sleep aura. Benetints are bootlegged big time with this Korean brand!
3. Hand cream - Be it Baies Sucrees Sweet Berries or Real Moist 24 Hand Cream Manuka Honey - this are not just hand creams, this could also be used as lotion on dry patches (elbows, knees, ankles) on the spot!

Yup, just this three. I'm lazy for press powder and I usually don't do touch ups. You could also add an oil blotting paper (for frugal moms aka Starbucks napkins), a travel size perfume and while at home, don't forget to swipe deo on both pits (that just takes 2 seconds each) and to make the face bearable without a pound of primer, concealer and foundation, use Dove on face. Hate lotion after shower, use Dove all over. ;)

November Mini Haul!

Collective mini haul for the month of November includes goodies from Korea, random online shops and mall sales! :D I'm still sleepy but I'm too giddy to finally post this haul and maybe if I'm not yet tired will do a review on my favorites!

Omni White Soaps

First BDJ BOX Beauty Social

Welcome back from a looong extended vacation! I was supposed to post this before the holiday, but what the heck - accident do happen - long story short, we're back and I'll try to burn the keyboard and publish several posts right before I start designing again. *crossing fingers. :)

As a breastfeeding mom, I hesitated to join this event, thinking I can’t handle babe while strolling around, he might cry - or worse poop (now could i handle that, ey?) and people enjoying the event might get irritated. But a day before the deadline, the girly girl in me gave in! :P With a little help and push from my girly girl family as well, they promised to help carry babe around and my hubby has a project site inspection -  in Tondo, Manila – and volunteered to drop us at Mall of Asia on his way. So, through that arrangement, I pre-register all of us! :P

This is the first BDJ Box Social Event and I am excited on what is in store, for sure it will be a fun-filled event just like the past belle de jour events I've attended like -

We arrived before 1pm, fortunately its babe's siesta time after nursing. We put him in his stroller and secure him first before entering the atrium - just in time for our reserved talk with the Beauty Ministry! :P

I am so thankful that the event was held inside the mall given that my babe is sleeping, I won't worry about him sweating his back. :)
