Review: Foot Appeal Foot Peeling Mask

Warning: Some photos might be too eeekky, not for the faint-hearted ;) I've been very busy this couple of months and had no time to blog (excuses!). So let me end that three-month long hiatus with this zombie-gore-fest yet every-girls-secret-weapon foot beautifier! Ha! Ok, we all know guys love a pretty face and of course sexy body..but they are also very keen on well-manicured, pretty feet! Too bad,  not everyone have the time and money to...

M.I.A!!!

I've been MIA for a couple of days (or weeks) because I was busy with my surgery and just got out of the hospital last week and still recovering. Yep, I did undergo the knife..(or tubes) but I really have a good doctor, Dr. Chiaoling Sua-Lao, so everything's ok. If you ever want to know more about this surgery or my doctor, just drop me a line and I will try to answer your queries. Soooo...yep I missed a lot and that's also equivalent to zero mall...

Review: Benefit's Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow! Foundation

I've been lemming for this foundation for weeks! And as you can read from my last haul post, I bought this first week of April. So, let me get started with my review as I am very much excited with this product. Let me give you a little background on my make-up habit: NONE. Ha! I don't know how to use a foundation, a sponge, how to pick the right blush, how to use eyeliner, basically I know nothing about make-up! So I try to watch videos, read forums...

Review: Snoe's Here Comes the Sunblock

Summer heat is getting verrrrry hot with each passing day! We all know how harmful these UV rays are, and I don't want to give a lecture on this one again (we all hear these things anyway e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y even if it's the rainy season). So let me give you a review on one of the sunblocks I have tried from Snoe, the Here Comes the Sunblock. (photo from Snoe Beauty) From the Snoe website, this product claims to moisurize, whiten (and instantly...

Holiday Haul! Make-Up Starter

I've been MIA this whole holy week, mostly because of the work-ups with the doctor and I just needed really to take a break (it's emotionally draining, really). So I went on mall hopping and got me some retail therapy! Ok, I've been thinking what to buy if I wanted to start my make-up kit. I already bought some brush (and mineral make-up) from Ellana when I TRIED using mineral make-up last year. I think that will do for now, I just have to clean...

Review: Snoe's S Skin SPF30 Stem Cell Sunblock Cream

As I have seen you luvvies are interested with this product line, might as well make a review of another product from Snoe, the S Skin SPF30 Stem Cell Sunblock Cream. (photo from Snoe) I bought this because the moisturizer I was using at that time has no SPF (Lush Celestial), and I was noticing some sun spots (dark spots) on my face. Another thing is, you know my fixation right now for anti-aging creams right? Their claim on "stem cell"...

Review: Snoe's Hair Heroes Intense Argan Oil Conditioner

Hair Heroes Intense Argan Oil Conditioner is one of my hauls from Snoe. Let me give you a bit of a background on my hair. I have very thick hair and it is naturally wavy. I had it rebonded since 2006, then permed and colored last 2008 (rebonded 3 months after that), then rebonded again 2009, permed 2010 rebonded 2011, colored last quarter of 2011, and now thinking of getting it permed again and colored (for the roots)...So basically, my hair should...

Lemming: Benefit's Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow!

One of the problems of being a late bloomer is that I find it hard to distinguish what foundation suits my skin because: I have no idea what my shade is  I find it hard to get a foundation that won't settle on the wrinkles on my face and get flaky on some of my dry spots (you know, the aging skin prob or whatev)  Right now, I am trying Revlon Photoready in Medium Beige and I think it is kinda ok, but let me use it for a week before...

Snoe Beauty Haul!

I woke up one day and thought: "hey I need some spf for my aging skin and some whitening for dark spots here and here..and here."  But being a late bloomer, I do not know what I need and what kind and where to buy! So I browsed my favorite forum which is GirlTalk and looked for something that would fit my needs. As if on cue, I found this thread about Snoe Beauty, very interesting indeed (anything with "beauty" sounds interesting anyway). And found out that most of their items contain SPF whitening ingredients. So I went to the nearest...

Oh Wait!

I just started with this blog yesterday and I am having visitors already! That means I have to work double time, because as you can see my blog is not ready yet!! The posts were from my tumblr blog (which took a lot of time for stupid me to discover how to move here to blogger) and I am still trying to figure out how to go about the layout and the content. Ohhh bear with me dear readers! But I do hope the posts and reviews helped you in some way. x...

Review: Lush Lemony Flutter

From the Lush website: Softens hard skin all over the body, especially the cuticles. We made Lemony Flutter to soften your cuticles; it’s our thickest cream out there. It’s so good at softening your cuticles and nourishing your nails that Lush customers have been using it to soften and nourish lots of other body parts like their feet, elbows and knees. Fortunately, it’s a very reasonably priced cream, so you can afford to use it as widely as you...

Review: Lush Celestial Moisturizer

From the Lush website: Every ingredient in this cream has been carefully chosen because they are angelically good on sensitive skins.  We put the petals from fresh dove orchids in almond oil and leave them to steep overnight until they give up their goodness into the oil. We then take that oil and add almond milk, cocoa butter, vanilla infusion and vegetable glycerine to create a delicate cream that will moisturise without inflaming difficult...
