Say NO to falsies using Heroine Make Long and Curl Mascara.

I really love falsies but I think it is not convenient for everyday use. This makes me think that I should get a good mascara that will give my eyes almost the same effect as falsies. Look what I found ! Heroine Make Long and Curl Mascara in Steady Brown !

 

I prefer the brown one because it is a little noticeable. As you can see on the picture, it has a curved brush that lifts your eyelashes.

Here it is when I applied it on my eyelashes ( PS : I do have really short eyelashes). Look how it brushes my lashes separately. I absolutely LOVE it! ( Beauty tip : Apply your mascara on a zigzag mode to have a fuller eyelashes, it also reduces clumping. ) . It has a quick dry formula and oil-repellent wax that coats and prevents smudging. I love the color, the texture and almost everything about it. It brightens up my eyes. Plus, it is water proof that will give you a great staying power.

 

Get it for only P695. IT IS ABSOLUTELY A MUST-HAVE ! For more information, you can check their facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/pages/Heroine-Make-Philippine

My journey to Manila Ocean Park

As I am having a vacation from school which is really awesome, my Sister invited me to go to Manila Ocean park which evolved to a great Holiday Destination.

We've availed the Deep Sea Rush 5 on the metrodeal which costs 499 instead of 1300. It is inclusive of Oceanarium which is the Asia's largest underwater viewing tunnel, Sharks and Rays Dry Encounter, Jellies Exhibit which introduces you to the different jellyfish species from all over the world, Sea Lion Show and Acquatica Fish Spa.

We first go to the Sharks and Rays Dry Encounter and Acquatica Fish Spa. In the Shark and Rays Dry Encounter, I am a little bit disappointed. There is no shark at all only sting rays but It was nice that you can touch the sting rays as much as you want. I hate the NO PRIVATE PHOTOGRAPHY thing. Now I can't include here how big is the sting rays that I've touched.

Next, we go to the Acquatica Fish Spa. Watch as the fishes feast on your feet. I am warning you! IT TICKLES! All of the people there are laughing because it really tickles but you'll get used to it after like 10 minutes and it will be relaxing.

Watch the video here : http://instagram.com/p/tcVSCRnEeM/?modal=true

After the tickling season on the Acquatica Fish Spa. We see the Sea Lion Show.

In the Sea Lion Show, there are 2 trainers with their Sea Lions. They taught us about water pollution and the destruction of marine habitats.

The next one is the Oceanarium. I really enjoyed the Oceanarium as I indulged to the depths of the sea. They got really big aquarium and a tunnel where you will really feel that you're one with the sea.

Watch the video of the Tunnel here : http://instagram.com/p/tcu1NfHET-/?modal=true

Last but not the least, Jellies Exhibit which introduces you to the different jellyfish species from all over the world.

The jelly fish looks so cute but they are really dangerous. Some of them are poisonous and got deadly a sting.


Overall, I really enjoyed the Deep Sea Rush 5 not minding the traffic before getting there and the traffic back home. I will definitely go back with my friends.

Heroine Make Smooth Liquid Eyeliner

Want to know my holy grail liquid eyeliner ? Well, here it is ! The Heroine Make Smooth Liquid Eyeliner (black) .

 

As the other Heroine Make products packaging, it comes with a disposable paper board and plastic. Since the product came from Hong Kong and Singapore, the information about it was written on Chinese. Want to know why Princess Elizabeth is crying on the packaging ? Then read more.

Princess Elizabeth is crying on the packaging because Heroine Make Smooth Liquid Eyeliner has a strong waterproof function. It effectively acts against tears. So that is why Princess Elizabeth is crying but still got a beautiful eyes on the packaging. Haha !  It is also effective against water, sweat or sebum on your face. The function is very long-lasting and has a precise contouring.

The 0.1mm extreme fine point allows you draw precise and beautiful eyeliners every single time. This is what I like the most about it. Like on the picture, you can draw thin to thick lines. It is an all around product with an incredible fine point. Not like the other liquid eyeliners which the color fades to gray, the color of it was intense black.

It dries very quickly and another thing to be happy about is " IT IS SMUDGE-FREE " . I am a girl who loves to scratch/itch her eyes when it got itchy and this is why it is my holy grail. Even though my eyes are itchy, I can itch it without worrying about my eyeliner.

It is superiorly waterproof, anti-tear, anti-sweat, sebum resistant and totally waterproof. The color is long-lasting and is easy to use. Everyone can easily draw perfect eyeliner.

Achieve the perfect cat eye. Best of the best liquid eyeliner that I've used.

BDJ Box Beauty Social Camp Gorgeous

This is the first event that I've attended since I started blogging. For the Bdj Box's Camp Gorgeous Event to be my first, It was really GREAT ! For those who didn't come, look at what you've missed.

 

I arrived at SM North Edsa (Sky Dome) at 12:05 pm. I was too early for the first talk but I guess being early is good than being late. Because I haven't eaten my lunch yet, I decided to eat lunch first. 

 

When I got back, the first talk is getting started which is the Beauty Prep (12:00 pm - 12:45 pm) with Beauty Ministry of Bdj Box . The host for the event is Ms. Karen Bordador of Monster Radio RX93.1. Looks like the Bellas are enjoying.

After a few minutes, I was called by Ms. Karen Bordador because I won a ReCleanse Herbal Cleanse. Thank you again Ms. Minji for picking me as your winner. Yaay !

 

 While the talk is on-going and I've registered for Shu Uemura's Be bold, Be Edgy and L'Oreal's Up your star factor, I checked out some booths. 

 

L'Oreal is offering a free skin analysis and free complimentary facial. Ive tried their facial and also the skin analysis. On the skin analysis, my skin is already 23 but I am just 20.. kinda sad but I love how they massaged my face. <3 #happybella. I also got a free makeover at heroine make. #heroinemakeprincess.

 

The Cover Girl , Heroine Make , Too Cool For School and Piandre are also there. They are offering a free makeover and free product trials.

After checking some booths, The first talk just got finished and they're calling for the Shu Uemura's Attendees (including me) .

 

Mr. Patrick Alcober (Senior Makeup Artist of Shu Uemura) is the one who taught us how to achieve an edgy eye makeup look the Shu Uemura way.

Before : A little too plain

After : Rocking her beautiful smokey eyes. ( I think she really smiled for me -^.^-)

I've learned so many things from Mr. Patrick Alcober. I love how he uses the Shu Uemura Drawing Pencils to achieve this look.

After attending Shu Uemura's, My next talk is Up your star factor with L'Oreal Paris ( Verna Marin and Gex Garcia) 

 

 

I've learned so much on how to rock the perfect shades for the nude makeup look. 

After the talk, I checked out some other booths such as Pac , Glam Glow, Benefit Cosmetics and Yves Rocher which is also offering a free product trial and a makeover .

 

I talked to Ms. Minji about the ReCleanse 7-day kit that she gave me. I am so excited to use it. I also met Ruth of Ruthilicious (My favorite blogger). She's very generous. We got some pictures but it's on her cellphone so I guess, I'll be uploading it later.

When I got home, I opened up the loot bag. This is what I've got.

My picture taken at the Canon photo booth is what I loved the most. I am not after the loot bag at all but I am after into something that I can treasure as a remembrance. I got a lot of samples from Shu Uemura and Too Cool For School. Some of the samples that I've got are taken away ( by my precious love ones. LOOOOL ) like bifesta lotion cleansing wipes and food vouchers.

 

I also opened up the ReCleanse Pack that I've just won. Thank you all over again Ms. Minji. This will give me the healthy start that I am looking for. 

I'll be posting a review soon of ReCleanse 7-day kit ( for colon and multi-systems )

Vanilla Cupcake Bakery Review

Hello everyone! Today, I am going to write a review on Vanilla Cupcake Bakery. Since then, I really want to spend time and eat cupcakes on their store but unfortunately I got no time.

You can find Vanilla Cupcake Bakery at :
Level M1, Inside Kamiseta Store, Trinoma Mall, Quezon City
2/F Trinoma Mall, Edsa Corner, North Avenue, Quezon City
2/F Glorietta 4 Ayala Center, Makati City
Upper Ground Level, Corte de las Palmas, Alabang Town Center

The Place :
The store is really ADORABLE ! The ambiance makes you want to eat more cupcakes. There are girly frames with cute sayings and quotes, floral lamps and fancy chairs. It feels like I'm a princess sitting on one of those fancy chairs. The place is nice for "selfies" and it also gives me that homey feeling. I just think that the place was not good for big groups of people because it was small. I'll give the place a score of 4/5.

 

The Food  :

Because I am a cupcake lover, I came to their store for the cupcakes. They've got a wide range of dishes on their menu to select from, not just cupcakes. Their cupcakes range from 85 to 150. I got myself s'mores (P115), chocolate cream pie (P105), lava cake (P90) and a cold chocolate.

Honestly, the cupcakes taste awesome. You can really taste the flavor of the cupcake you chose. The cupcakes are delicious but I don't know if it's just me or the cupcakes are tad bit too sweet. I am lucky I've ordered a cold chocolate drink which is not sweet and compliments well with the cupcake. For the taste of the food and the food itself, I'll give it a 3/5.

You should give it a try. Vanilla Cupcake Bakery is a must-visit. Even though I didn't like the cupcake that much, it might still work for you. People do got different tastes. :) <3

Heroine Make Protect UV Mineral BB Cream Review

Are you a fan of BB Creams ? Well, I'm sure you are because I am an avid fan of it.
For today, I got you a Heroine Make Protect UV Mineral BB Cream ( 01 - Light ) which is absolutely a must-have. 

It looks adorable. It comes with a disposable card board paper packaging. Since this product was from Hong Kong and Singapore, the information about the product at the back is written in Chinese.

 

After removing the packaging, it looks like this. The 30g Heroine Make Protect UV Mineral BB Cream comes with a 4-inch tube which makes it absolutely handy.

Here are some of the information from Sasa.com

Kiss Me Heroine Make Protect UV Mineral BB Cream

• SPF50+ PA+++ Protects the skin from powerful UV, creating clear and smooth skin
• A functional BB cream that provides excellent coverage, creating beautiful skin by concealing pores with just one application.
• Adheres well to the skin, allowing long lasting make up without oiliness.

Price : 595            You can buy it at : sasa.com and watsons

We'll see if the following information is true. <3

 After applying it, my skin looks a little fairer than before. It gave my skin a smooth flawless finish and as you can see it covers some wrinkles in my hand. The texture of it will allow you to quickly apply and blend it with your skin.

  

 

I tried it yesterday on my face before going to school and I can say that it really protects my skin because of its SPF50+ PA+++ . It goes very well with my skin. It was really long lasting because when I got home, it was still on and steady in my face.

I'll give this one a 5/5 score because all of the information above is true.

Banapple Love. ( Banapple Review )

Hi guys ! For today, I am going to review Banapple (Cafe , Bakery , Dessert Restaurant) . First, It was a really good place to eat. I've been in Ayala Triangle Gardens branch and also in Alabang Town Center branch. The restaurant looks refreshing with its flower designed tables (which is made of marble *I think) and Georgian type of chairs.

So how about the food ? The food ! The food is what I loved in this restaurant. It is really delicious. Here are some pictures from me.

 

The Blueberry cheesecake and Oreo cheesecake are not too sweet, That's what I loved about their cheesecakes. You can eat the whole slice of it without saying "AHH! I'm getting tired of eating this!".

A must try is their Oreo cheesecake and Pecan pie. For sure you'll loved it.

 

The food don't lack in spices. The taste is just right. Their Parmigiano ,  Lasagna roll-ups and Hickory smoked barbecued country ribs is a must try too. 1 serving is already good for 2, but if you eat like me then it will be enough for one haha !

 By the way, Don't worry that much about the price. It's budget-friendly. The food and beverages range 60 - 200. What a relief right ?  They are just waiting for you to try it out. Ayt ! <3

A nice gyaru eyes.

So first lets discuss what Gyaru means, Gyaru is a Japanese translation for the english word Gal. The name originated from a 1970s brand of jeans called “gurls”, with the advertising slogan: “I can’t live without men”, and was applied to fashin- and peer-conscious girls in their teen and early twenties.There are many subcategories of gyaru but what I am going to teach you is just a simple gyaru look. Well, You don’t have to get yourself tanned and bleach your hair. You just need a white eyeliner, a black liquid eyeliner and a black pencil eyeliner , a pink lip gloss and your favorite foundation (optional: falsies and contact lens), then you’re done ! First, Put your foundation.

 

and for the eyes, you just have to follow the steps. On the first photo, You just have to put black eyeliner pencil on your upper lash line then layer it with the liquid one. You have to layer it so it will last longer. Add a single wing at the end of your eyes. Do it also under your eyes. It should look like this  

because you’re going to put white eyeliner under the first half of your water line and in the next half is a thicker black pencil eyeliner. Make sure not to put eyeliner on the half of your water line insides. Falsies are optional. Put your pink lip gloss and YOU’RE SET. What I did was optional, I did a thicker one since my eyes are small.

 

See ? My eyes look bigger now. You can do your eyes thicker or thinner, It depends how big your eyes are.
