How many girlfriends do you have? Don’t you just love having someone or having many girlfriends to talk to on random days when you feel chatty and talk nonsense? I love my girlfriends, all of them, people I met from gradeschool, highschool, college, graduate school, work and online. And even though, hubby teases me that me and my girlfriends would always end up talking about purses, make-up and celebrities, we also (and usually) end up discussing serious issues such family, future plans and life in general.  Read the rest of this entry »

These mens t shirts are something I would love to include in dear hubby’s Christmas stockings.

Sometime last year, around October, there was a buzz in Facebook which became a very popular trend. Most of the participants were women, your girlfriends, sisters, wives, etc… etc…where in most of them had to change their status update and mine was:

I like it on the couch, I like it on the kitchen sink, I like it anywhere except the floor… Read the rest of this entry »

Do you know that one of the best stores to run for some of my favorite staple make-ups are drugstores and pharmacies? Yes they do have the basic and staple beauty and grooming products and sometimes they offer cheaper rates. Read the rest of this entry »

Snagged from Wanda. Thanks for this mare!
I can clear my mind through this meme before I go on and research on uniden.

MAKEUP:
blush or bronzer? - blush barnone.
lip gloss or lipstick? – lipstick.
eye liner or mascara? - mascara.
foundation or concealer? – concealer, like I always say, the story of my life!
Liquid Foundation or Powder? – Daily Use, Powder. I feel like I am punishing my skin if I wear liquid foundation everyday but for special occasion, definitely, liquid.
neutral or color eye shadow? – depends on my mood and the occasion, but more often, neutral.
pressed or loose eye shadows? - pressed.
brushes or sponges for foundation? - next to my fingers, sponges! Read the rest of this entry »

Every time MAC comes out with a limited edition line, I make sure to get something from it. I don’t know why but probably because I have this notion that since it is a Limited Edition, it must be really good and the packaging is something I look forward to. The Wonder Woman collection is not an exception to this practice even if I found the packaging to be too cartoon-y at first but guess what, it is actually an adorable packaging, makes me want to buy more hee hee. Anyway, I got a lipstick in Russian Red as I want to create classic looks with less emphasis on the eyes and more on the lips. I suggest you watch Michelle Phan’s video posted after my review because she has tips on what perfect Red Lipstick you should get and what to know when buying one. Alrighty, that’s all for now as I need to check on this disability insurance site. Ciao!
