Le Papillon | FOTD and OOTD | #ButterflyLook
During one of the random talks I had with my current favorite person, I asked her what she thinks she would be if she is animal. Without a bat of an eyelash she answered, "a butterfly." I, actually, didn't expect her to give that answer. Not that I dislike butterflies but who, in her normal mind, would want to live most of her life looking blah (pupa…

FOTD: Back to You | Ellana Minerals
I always have a hard time thinking of titles for my FOTDs. I want to use quotes, lines of songs, and random phrases related to the look I did but I shall admit, I always don't have the creativity to think of such. Most often than not, I would show a photo of the look to my boyfriend and ask him to give it a title. Being an I-don't-know-anything-about-makeu…

LOTD: Move Up and Forward
“It is always important to know when something has reached its end. Closing circles, shutting doors, finishing chapters, it doesn't matter what we call it; what matters is to leave in the past those moments in life that are over.” -- Paulo Coelho, The Zahir Being a teacher is not a walk in the park. It is so d*** hard, I tell you, but I don't …

FOTD: Keep It Simple But Powerful
On times that I don't have much time to do my makeup, I always put the thought "Keep it simple but powerful" in mind. No need to pile up products onto your face for your look to be remarkable. Just focus on one part, make sure that it is powerful enough to leave a statement. I love eyebrows and 75% of the time, I put the focus of my look on my de…

FOTD: Side Swept
For almost 3 weeks now, I am sporting the side-swept fringe kind of hair. Not just because I find it totally cool and that I am really digging the look, it is one of the two things I can do (the other is to contour my face heavily than usual) to at least cover my swelling face. I recently had an operation done on my wisdom tooth that caused my face to swell. To t…

FOTD: Knockout
This look is not a literal knockout, as you can see. It is too simple, giving the focus to the brows (which is normal for me) , lashes and the lips. Actually, this look was named after the lipstick I used -- the Avon Ultra Moisture Rich Lipstick in Knockout Pink. The Avon Ultra Moisture Rich Lipstick in Knockout Pink is one of the few lipsticks I finish a…

Look: Beauty Queen
It was about 8 years ago when I wanted to become a beauty queen. The glamour and shine beauty queens have were something I wished to have under my name as well. Years after that, I had the chance to join a pageant and luckily, bagged the title. Opportunities came right after that. It was overwhelming but I had to back out. I suddenly realized the stage and the lig…

Tutorial : Green Under
Happy Monday! Since we are already on the start of a new school year, I decided to do a makeup look that can be worn on a school day...NOT. This look is totally not appropriate for school unless you want all eyes to be on you. Well, all eyes were on me when I wore this out one random day of errands. As I was doing my makeup one day, I decided to go all th…

FOTD: Summer Sleek
I do my makeup for about 10 minutes, tops 15, for everyday. For those who think that the time I allot for my everyday face is way too long, well, I exert effort in making my eyebrows well-defined. For those who think that that time is not enough to make my face look decent, can I just say, I don't put much on my everyday mug. I just like my face to look simple b…

FOTD: Beauty from Within
Makeup can really make a difference. It can make flat nose look pointed, chinky eyes look a bit bigger, imperfect face look perfect, and so much more. I don't think I'll ever stop putting makeup on my face because of the difference it gives but someway, somehow, I am bothered with what aging can do on my face. We can't stop it, I know, but we can delay…

FOTD: A Reason to Start A New Beginning
I turned 27 exactly a week ago. I didn't have anything grand. A simple yet very intimate family dinner summed the day up. Realizations started to kick in the moment I lay on my bed. My wishes were overflowing, material and immaterial, but one thing stood out and that is to have a happy and relaxed new year in my life! And because I wanted to attract hap…

Too much of the same stories in our lives I think it's time for change, don't you - Stories, Trapt That is pretty much my realization for the past weeks. I just thought that my life has been circling around almost the same things. Am I bored with it? Yes, definitely. I want change. Something better. Something happy. Anyways, even my makeup is on …
