Product Feature: VMV Hypoallergenics Lipsticks

It has been a bit quiet lately here on my blog but I am here again! 

I recently purchased two lipsticks from VMV hypoallergenics. I am having a hard time looking for a lipstick shade which is close to my natural lip color. I know, you might be thinking that finding a lip color which resembles your natural lips defies the sole purpose of a lipstick. But I just want something to enhance my lip color, making them look healthier and more polished. 

I have not tried VMV but I have heard good reviews about this brand. It being hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, paraben-free, non-comedogenic, are some of the benefits which sound absolutely appealing to me. The product claims to be:

• Validated hypoallergenic
• 100% Dye-Free.
• 100% Free of Irritating Waxes (including Beeswax and its cross-reactors), Phthalates, Parabens + Preservatives.
• 100% Free of All-Types-Of-Fragrance.
• Non-Comedogenic, Non-Drying. Non-Darkening. Usage + Patch-Tested

These are all good news!

I bought two shades: 

1. Beet Sugar - subtle shine finish
2. Saloon - velvet matte finish

Packaging looks simple and sleek

Beauty Bar Mini Haul

It has been a long hot month of May! Seriously, it gets hotter every year. I live in Pasig and I constantly need to travel all over the city. The pollution and heat is all too much for the skin to handle. That's why summer means longer and more frequent showers for me - if I could just stay inside the shower all day long.

I have always been a fan of body wash and shower gels because I find them more moisturizing than ordinary soap. I often tend to purchase based on the smell. I gravitate towards fruity, particularly citrus or berry, scents more than floral ones. After checking Beauty Bar's online store, I got curious about these shower and after-shower products.

Our Little Ball of Sunshine

This is Akira, our 1 year old Shih Tzu! She just had a haircut last week and is feeling pretty and happy about it. We went for a very short cut sparing her tail and ears, so it appears that she has a little bob haircut going on.

We went to Eastwood and had our little photo shoot. Eastwood has a pet-friendly park where dog parents take their babies for a stroll.

'What was that?!'

A Little Reminder

Live an intense life.

Sharing this quote to all of you! This is to remind us, including myself, to live life to the fullest, create and do everything with passion.

I will admit that most of the time I find myself falling into a rut which is difficult to get out of. There are times when I don't know exactly what I want to do with my life. Life passes by and a lot of things kept me busy from realizing it. When this happens, I think it is very important to go back to your core - your hungers and yearnings. The question is "What drives you?" These are the things which fuel us everyday and make us closer to our goals. For some, it's music, for others, it's sports, art and creativity, writing, helping others, I could go on and on. Spend some time alone and go back to what you are passionate about. You will be surprised with the amount of energy you'll earn by doing so.

New Laptop from YouPoundIT

I must say, I will give YouPoundIT 5 stars for product leadership, customer service, and product affordability. I have never been this satisfied with an online shop before and you know me guys, I am a rant machine.

Weekend Haul | The Body Shop

One of my resolutions this year is to upgrade my skin regimen, or create one actually. When I was in Highschool, I religiously was able to cleanse, tone, and moisturize every single day. Ironically, this routine disappeared as I grew older. I then realized that I'm not getting any younger and it is very important to take care of my skin. I know it won't be easy and it will require commitment and effort.

Cravings | Froyo at Pinkberry

Sometimes you just have to get out and satisfy that sweet tooth! Yogurts have always been one of my staples at our fridge. I can eat them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, no problem. That particular day I was craving for froyo and my feet brought me to Pinkberry.
