It's summer again! The heat could be really annoying sometimes especially if you're wearing make-up. It could be irritating especially if it's hot and you're sweaty. So for today, I'm going suggest some items for a more comfy summer!

Colourette's Coloursticks are trendy now a days, and it's okay to spoil yourself with these cosmetics every once in a while. I bought this shade together with Sahara that's why today, I'm going to share what I think about this shade.

Petra gives you a summer vibe because of it's color, it's somehow reddish and pink and it's warm so it's perfect for summer!

"This shade also make you look sophisticated and chic, it is also good for everyday make-up."

This shade is perfect for tanned, medium and fair skin because it brightens your face.

I have a fair skin but it made me look brighter

This shade is a must have especially for this summer vibe! :D I love it.

Rate:

4/5

I gave it a 4/5 because I really love it! The only problem I think is it leaves stains on your teeth but I think that just depends on how you properly apply it so be careful. Also there are times it makes my lips dry because of the residue left because it's very clingy, LOL. It's better to use with a lip balm but overall, I really really love it!

Would I buy it again? 

Well, of course, these type of shades are my shade! I used to have the same shade of lipstick with different brands and this is my top pick! :D


So try it out now! :D

So I recently posted a review on Colourette's and I was really satisfied so I decided to try their different shades as well.

I wanted to try a nude shade but I was really hesitating, worried that it won't suit me and that I would look pale so I asked the re-seller if I could try them on before purchasing them, however, all of their sticks were sealed.

I usually try a lipstick on before buying it so that I won't regret it and I kept finding pictures of women with medium/fair skin tone just to see if it would also look good on me.

So there, I took the risk and decided to buy it! I'm so glad I did.

This shade made me look vibrant, no regrets at all. It definitely matched my skin tone and I instantly fell in love with it at first swipe!

The color would help you achieve that nice girl look. :D

Loving it!!!!

It also stays long so you don't have to worry about re-applying and I also find it fascinating that even after you eat, the shade stays and somehow gives a light reddish color I don't know if some of you guys noticed it already.

Well, this is a really good product and the shade, wow! You can use this shade during the summer for a fresh look also for your daily make-up use. I love the creamy matte! Stays longer for hours. So there.

"If you have a fair, medium, tanned skin tone, take the risk! This shade is perfect and I'm loving it!!!"

"Would I buy it again?"

I've been seeing a lot of posts lately that some people prefer being bare-faced because boys won't be shocked to see them without make-up on. Come on people! Putting on make up is not bad, if you know how to properly do it. 

I personally like putting on make-up not because I think I'm ugly, no! Excuse me, haha! Kidding aside, I like making myself look better. I don't put make up on to impress guys, if I did I would have never allowed my partner to see me bare-faced. He loves me with or without make-up and he supports me because this is what I love to do.

So here are the 5 reasons why ladies like to put their make-up on so stop crying and bragging about how you don't put make-up everyday because you have that natural beauty. 

1. It helps you feel good about yourself

2. Enhances the beauty that already exists

Of course, that's the thing about make-up, it enhances your look hehe (just kidding) Well, for us girls not all of us are born looking overly beautiful when we wake-up. so what do we do? We put on our make-up! yes! 

Like for instance, there are so many people asking if I'm sick, if I'm okay or what, calm down guys, I'm perfectly fine I'm just naturally pale. Cosmetics are very helpful.

If you have a really huge house, would you like it plain? No, right? You want to beautify it because you love it. You don't want it dull or boring, you enhance it's look. Well, you get my point.

Celebrities, even with a natural beauty, still wears make-up.

3.It's a plus point

I am really a fan of ladies who do their make-up so well! Like, dang girl! You fine! I love it. It's art. Not everyone can do that, it's a gift and it takes practice to master it. Putting on foundation, drawing your eyebrows, contouring your face, do you think it's easy? It's not! It's a talent and not everyone was gifted with magic hands.

4. Leaves an impression

When you know how to carry yourself and present yourself, you'll leave a good first impression of course, attitude matters, even if you wear make-up, if you're attitude ain't good well, you just wasted an awful lot of cosmetics. If you wear make-up it doesn't matter if people will be shocked without it. We deal with several people everyday, it's not everyday you are gonna spend the night with someone and show yourself without make-up. 

They would say, be simple and be yourself. Yes that's true. Doesn't mean you cover your face with make-up, you are fake. Some people don't wear make-up but they have that fake attitude, that's being fake, alright?

5. Protects your face

Some make-ups, especially organics one leaves protection on your face. It's important to leave the house with full protection. Some powder, and some products may harm your skin so it's better to use the right products. Some has vitamins and SPF that protects your face from the sun. Better start protecting your face! :D

So there you go, I really love it when my friends come to me for make-up or skin care advice it makes me feel somehow useful, I'm still not a professional though but we'll get there. 

If you wanna learn simple tricks to properly use make-up let me know, I'll be more than happy to teach you :D

Here, I would also like to share some of my favorite everyday looks: 

Sassyyy!!!

Simple, No make-up look

The I could ruin someone's life look

Liquid eyeliners are one of the useful tool to highlight your eyes, especially for girls like me who have chinky eyes, it really is a struggle to find the right brand so I decided to try this product.

I know this is somehow a different topic from my earlier posts but hey, as I promised I will surely help you in making your life beautiful. So here you  go, finally achieving another milestone in your life. You should be very very proud of yourself for achieving so much!

Well, you should be after all those sleepless nights, sweats and tears shared. Just to give you a head's up, I know it's gonna be hard so here are the 5 important advice that I can give to give you! :)

This is dedicated to my sister, and also to all of my graduating friends out there!

1. Get ready to be rejected 

I know you will be very excited to apply for a suitable job for your future career, there will be times when you will be rejected, no matter how confident you are there will be companies who won't appreciate what you can offer. It could be very exhausting, mentally, physically, even spiritually. Despite of that, don't feel bad about yourself.

It's okay, sometimes when it's not for you, it's not for you and just because you keep being rejected doesn't mean you're not good enough. Just always wear your best and do your best.

 You'll find the right one soon.  Just enjoy it! You never know how badly I want to go back to bed and rest for a whole week! Haha.

2. Talk about your stress

Never own what you feel, adult life is really hard. You'll do a lot of adjusting. So if you found a suitable company and somehow feel stressed, talk to someone about it. Release that stress, cry if you want to. It's okay. After this, you will become a stronger person than ever before.

3. Treat yourself

Always treat yourself nicely, buy new clothes, make-up, food, shoes, anything! You've worked hard for it, you've earned it. Do the things that you know how to take your stress away. Don't just work work work and work, do something for yourself :)

4. Parents should always be present

When it comes to decision making, I don't totally rely on my parents I just lean on them. When I'm having a hard time about something, I ask their opinion about it. Why? Because they know better. They experienced the stress, the exhaustion more than I do.

It's important to include your parents for now, since you are just starting to see the adult world. But when you can do it by yourself, do it.

Also, don't forget to treat your parents sometime during payday just to let them feel special. It will be the nicest feeling to see their happy faces and you'll know what you've worked for is worth it.

5. Let yourself grow

My dad once said, growing is not just about the proper training you get from a company or from the knowledge you gain from it but it's how your attitude grows. Every work station that we will work with will definitely be stressful but it's how you'll handle it, how you allow yourself grow. Be active, participate and be noticeable.


Well just to set your expectation, it will be a painful struggle but as long as you have your family and friends to support you in whatever you do, it will make it somehow easier. Don't overthink, don't be afraid, be smart, be brave and be confident. :D

So that's it guys! Enjoy your success, you deserve it! Happy graduation day, get some rest while you can! Haha. Kidding aside, YOU'LL BE FINE. :)

Just wanna share with you my graduation photo!!! :)

Colourette has been making a buzz lately which really interest me to try this product. I was so excited to try it on so I contacted the nearest supplier to get one of these babies. It's actually easy because Colourette will send you a private message to provide you the contact numbers of their nearest re-sellers so it would be easier for you to purchase it.

So let's begin.

I would like to take this time to thank you and encourage you that we can go anywhere as long as we work hard and desire for it. This may be very long but yea.

Being a woman is a struggle but being a woman actually empowers us. It's not just in the way we make ourselves look good in the mirror but how we carry ourselves under pressure. Being beautiful is way beyond being pretty. It's good to have a pretty face but it's better to have a beautiful heart.

There are so many women out there who have a huge heart and I would like to thank them for sharing a part of them in my life.

My mom, you are the most amazing woman I know. You're the best at what you do. You have your own problems but you still manage to take care of your kids and be an understanding wife. I don't know how you're doing it but I always wanted to be like you. You being strong despite of everything gives me hope that I could be strong and patient like you. I thank you for being supportive and patient for be every step of the way despite of my stubbornness and thank you for making sure that I always get the very best. I may not be good enough for now but I promise you I will give what you deserve someday. I love you! You are the representation of how a woman should be :)



To my sister who always strives to be better and who is so passionate at what she does. Continue being an inspiration to other ladies out there, someday I know you'll be the next Pia Wurtzbach. I will always be here to support you every step of the way. :)



To my cousins and titas, I love you all. You've all been such an inspiration to me helping me grow and watch me succeed, and to my friends who are now married, have a family of their own, who are still struggling, successful, inlove wherever you are, thank you for being a part of my life. You deserve all the beauty of this life. You have brought smiles to my face and getting to know you strong and lovely ladies makes life happier :)

These are some of the women I treasure and love dearly, you are all beautiful inside and out. :)

Happy International women's day to all you ladies! :D
