I have a problem with unwanted hair sometimes, especially if there is a stubborn regrowth on my legs. I try to keep my legs as smooth and soft as possible, so I always make sure to visit my favorite salon to ask for waxing services. I've been doing this for a year now, so it's safe to say I have tried almost every type of waxing: cold wax, hot wax, sugar wax and even that blue weird wax that take forever to pull away. I am naturally curious of the processes and how efficient salons are with waxing. I love the feeling of softness and complete smoothness afterward. I wish they were my legs but no! :P Aside from salon trips, I have also tried packaged waxes like the Strip It Natural Sugar Wax from http://stripit.multiply.com; I've ordered a bunch of them together with my friends in the past. Because of my good experience with pre-packaged DIY wax, I tried Nanny Rose's Sticks and Pulls . It is available in selected Watson's stores and was priced almost the same with St

DAVAO CITY --- There are very few outdoor activities that you can do while walking around with a book in hand, that's why I was very happy to have participated in the first ever Easter Book Hunt organized by my friend, Chi! A few members of the Davao Reader's Circled were present, including Dom of VillageIdiotSavant (We were so sorry he couldn't stay long! Next time we'll try to be earlier!) as well as Julienne, Chi and me! There were a few more people who joined in on the fun a little bit later, and just a few talks about the books we were currently reading, we all became fast friends. That's me being surrounded by book worm friends, peace-signing like a boss! I bought 4 books to give away and at the end of the Book Hunt activity, I also managed to hunt 4 treasures! :D It was a particularly sunny day and the company of my bookworm friends has made it even brighter :)

My sister and two of my nieces flew to Japan for their vacation, and judging from the pictures they were having such a blast! I'm glad they got to enjoy their time there, sightseeing and most of all eating a lot. They arrived just last week and they bought a lot of chocolates and stuffed toys, things that normal girls would find very thrilling, but they also bought me Majolica Majorca, one of my first product from the Spring release! I've always always wanted it and it's so cute that my nieces bought this for me!!! I now have the Majolica Majorca Puff de Cheek ! Hahah so they know how much I love this brand. And I am all the more grateful that they chose a blush-on! If you remember the My Wishlist is Blushing post, I have no blushers until today. The Puff de Cheek in PK301 " Peach Macaron " is the most beautiful peach blusher I have ever seen. It's not very evident in my photos since I've resized them but it has finely-grounded powder with a pretty pe

Hi! I'm happy to report back in! Taking a very short break from my Asian make-up line, I took a chance to try out Elf Cosmetics which have been bought, featured and reviewed by so many bloggers. Some recommend them immensely and some hate it to bits. The mixed reviews made me hesitate trying it out, so it took me a while to finally purchase for myself. Because I rationalized in the end that it's not about the brand itself but which product was bought, as it's more on a hit or miss as far as I observe. Looking from their site, the Elf Studio Line looked really impressive. It's not the usual pink and pastel princesssy look that I like in a make up packaging, instead it's all sleek and black and serious looking. I wasn't really looking for anything specific so I ordered the two most popular brushes and the new Elf Studio Flawless Finish liquid foundation in Buff: I've read a lot of hate about the brushes smelling ugly (!) like a mix of plasticky commercial s
