I've missed blogging. I was on a hiatus because my sister was visiting from the US. She only comes home every 2 years so we made the best of it. I'm missing her terribly already...booo!!!

Anyhow, summer heat has arrived full force here in the Philippines. It can be quite unbearable, especially so when you're covered up in layers. So yeah, F blazers and tights...back to comfy boring clothes.
The knot was inspired by Kookie. I love the subtle detail.

And yay or nay for the orange lips? just got it today and I must say I'm loving it. 

And and, did yah all notice that I got dark??? Probably not, but I did. Blame it on the urge to swim when the noon sun is at it's worst. 

So ok, that's all for now....missed you all!!!!

I've always summarized my style and personality in one word: Gemini. And that fact cannot be more evident than in this blog. One minute I'm clad in my neutrals, the other minute I'm bathing in colors. 

 I guess that's just an innate disorder that I have. I'm never content in being just one person, I have to experience life in both ends. To be able to see life in a different perspective everyday is what molds me.

Late Happy April Fool's Day.

I would have bought the whole collection in a hear beat. Yes, even the blue, green and yellow lipstick. It's Mac! and Mac! I'd be crazy not to.  

PS. Got the photos here

This is how awkward I get when somebody else takes my picture.  We were running late so I had no choice but to ask the boyfriend to take my outfit photo. 

And so sad I lost the ring I was wearing here.

Clinique Party

As I've mentioned in the previous post, I attended Liz's Clinique Party over at Rustan's Makati last Saturday. It was more of a small intimate gathering rather than a party, which I preferred more. Liz was so accommodating and was such a good hostess. She went around talking to everybody as we waited for our turn. I love how ma-chika she was.

Everybody got their turns for a skin consultation and got their make up done as well. I was really conscious when I was stripped off of my make up because I'm really having bad skin these days. But then again what the heck right?
 
I wasn't able to take photos of my "transformation" but this was Rachael's turn.

(that's my guy at the background. He should get Best Boyfriend Award for patiently waiting with me amidst all the make up and kaartehan. )

She said she kinda looked "kontrabida" with the make up but I think with the right event, it would be perfect. She really looked great.

Me, Mira (from Clinique) and Rachael.

I was really debating with myself if I should get these two, especially the foundation. In the end practicality won...I have to use up about three more bottles of foundation. I vowed to get it though when I finally finish my stuff.

My freebies from the event. 
I love the lipstick but Mom loved it too so I gave it to her instead.

 Decided to try out this anti-blemish combo. Hoping it works.

And this is what's inside the Bonus Box that I got when my purchases amounted to 3k.

Thanks again Liz and Clinique for the wonderful party. It was great meeting everyone and  Next purchase would be the foundation and maybe the Moisture Surge (bentang benta ni Liz). You can read her post about it here.

ps. I love what the boyfriend said. "Akala ko dati ikaw na pinaka maarteng babae, madami pala kayo." hahahaha...
