Stories of a makeup artist...

I was a bit skeptical with this lip balm made by Revlon. I'm not really sure if they make good balms.So I tried one of theirs called "Elusive"... hmm...I liked how it glided on my lips the first time---it was smooth and tasted like peppermint and for me that's a plus! It's not heavy on the lips but after a while it gets a bit drying so I'm still into moisturizing lipsticks. Am I going to purchase another next time? Maybe not. It's not for me. For the price, really affordable and they have  nice colors! Not to mention, very convenient to use too!:-)  Go try it! They have a lot of positive reviews especialy those who love mattes and balms:-)

Natural Rosewood-it's a semi-matte lipcolor that goes on quite creamy. Yeah, it's kinda good for the price. I threw away the receipt but I think its price is around 499.00. I remember it was almost 500.00 pesos. The packaging looks good in gold metal case.  Flormar is from Germany and I got it from Watsons Drugstore. This is my favorite color coz coral suits my skin tone but they also have reds and pinks. The colors are limited though for this kind.  I noticed that a lot of Germany make up brands are being sold in Watsons so I'm quite intrigued. The quality is good enpugh and comparable to some known brands... well, let's see:-)

Still beautiful... 

Last Wednesday was actually my third gel nails experience. I had my first one in one of the poshest nail salon almost two years ago. I said to myself that I will never ever indulge myself again into gel polish but I was wrong! I love the fact that gel polish are more bonded to your nails , if done correctly and with the use of really quality ones. I had my first experience at Dashing Diva and I love it! It cost me pricey for both manicure and pedicure. They cleaned the nails well and cured each layer by UV nail dryer. And yeah it was really awesome each time I looked at my nails they were still intact and shiny. If not for the cracked polish after about...hmmm...if I remember it right...3 weeks?! Wow!  Then the second time was on my birthday month. I had the urge of doing my own French tip but I gave up since I wanted the white lines to be even.... so I headed to a nail salon. Too bad, the nail salon I went to which offered a big discount for my birthday month failed to perfect my nail
