Line Those Peepers

I suck at eye make-up. The only thing I can do decently is curl my lashes and put on clear mascara. I tried black mascara and I just end up looking well.. weird.

For years now I've been trying to find the guts to try different eye-make up, specifically the eyeliner. My sisters keep telling me it's pretty simple to use. I guess I just was not used to it and I always felt like the black line was as conspicuous as a red lipstick smear on my teeth or something.

And then two weeks ago... I met this contour pencil here that just absolutely made me change my mind about how hard it is to line one's eyes.

It's easy to apply. And it's the perfect shade! Deep Blonde. =D

It doesn't look as harsh as black liner does. It looks soft and natural.

And over the last 2 weeks.. I've been doing double-takes every time I face the mirror. See, I only line my eyes on my upper lids during normal (a.k.a "work") days. And so far, my eyes look lighter. A good kind of being lighter. I absolutely luuuuuv this pencil. ;))

For those who want to try other shades, I did notice that there were other available colors for this pencil. I didn't get to note the exact shades, but I know there were an icy blue and wood green sort of shades among the them.



A must-try, ladies!

Purple Day

We were asked to wear something purple today as part of the center's work gimiks. I was intially decided on donning a purple headband and call it a day...but then I saw my purple flower pin. So I made a whole outfit out of it! Hehe.


I had a not-so-close officemate immediately gush about it the moment I reached my workstation. It made me smile and made me feel special despite the obvious fact that all of us were wearing purple that day.


I had to stop myself from telling people "Look, I have a purple flower" though. Ahaha. *giggles* ;P



What I wore looks something like this (although I must say, my flower pin is way wayyy prettier than this)... paired with my all-time fave cigarette pants and plaid peep-toe shoes. =))

Look Who's Back =)

I'm baaaaack!! =) Took a long hiatus from writing and shopping and writing about shopping, and make-up and clothes. But now I'm back. Will be posting entries on my new discoveries about clothes, make-up and everyday "ka-kikayan". =))


Special Mention: Hi Jhoanna and Ana! It's nice to know there are at least 2 pretty girls following this blog. Hehe.
