For me, the next best thing one can learn when it comes to makeup (after drawing your brows, of course!) is lining the eyes. Lining the eyes give your eyes a whole new look. I wish I've known this technique a long time ago. Come to think of it, I do know about it..but I just don't know how to do it! (laughs)  It took me years to really master the art of lining the eyes. I've tried different styles, but my favourite has got to be the winged liner.  It makes one look sexy, sassy and nasty? (WUT!? LoL)   I've been asked a lot of times how I do it. I remember making a video tutorial years ago on how I line my eyes, but 'twas not the kind of lining that I do now.  I wish I can make an updated video tutorial for you (obviously, I can't), but for now let me tell you how you can line your eyes so easy you won't need years of practice. Say hello to your new best friend when it comes to lining your eyes, the Benefit They're Real Push-Up Liner : I ...

When this month's Glambox arrived, I was just so happy because it's no secret, I am a fan of this month's feature brand…Benefit Cosmetics!   The Benefit Cosmetics exclusive box has sample sizes of They're Real Mascara , Fake Up Concealer , Porefessional , Big Easy and…a card about a top secret product!?   ^_^ By now, I'm sure you already know what this secret product is.  I've already posted it on my Instagram account yesterday.   It is the..

Who says you can't wear makeup at home?  And who dare says you can't sport dark smokey eyes while cooking dinner?? Says who!? Come forth and I'll slit your throat! I'm kidding, of course! ^_^ Here's a look I came up with just because I got so bored looking Au Naturel (totally no makeup on) on most days.  And yeah, I whipped up this look just before I start preparing dinner.

It's been a while since I last posted an FOTD here.  I stay at home most of the time and even if I go out,   I don't really wear much eye makeup except for my usual winged liner.  So when I reached out for my eyeshadow brushes yesterday (for my Chelsea Grin look) I kinda thought I might have already forgot some things about blending.  But yeah, some things cannot be easily forgotten.  Though it surely helps to do some practice every now and then. Having said that, here's a look I came up with yesterday.  With Halloween just around the corner, I bet you are already thinking of what makeup look to wear for the parties you'd be attending. I know most of us don't really go for the scary/ghostly looks, so here's something you might want to try...I call this the Sexy Siren look.

A few months ago, during the Bloggers Launch for Benefit's Fake Up concealer, we got first dibs on what products to expect from the brand which probably has the cutest packaging ever.  One of these products is the brand's newest addition to their famous Box O' Powders, the Rockateur.  There were a lot of Ohhhs and Ahhhs, and all of us were left with a wish for this baby to come sooner. And after 4 months, I finally have one! Benefit Box O' Powder in Rockateur Famously provocative cheek powder Just like the other Box O' Powders, this costs $27 (plus tax) but this by far has the smallest amount of product at .17 oz.   Like the others, it also comes in a cute, nicely printed little box made of cardboard with a brush and a mirror.   As for the brush, I've noticed that this one has round edges and is actually softer.  I have Coralista and I find the brush too stiff for my liking. I threw it away just so I don't have to tak...

'twas around January (or Feb) when I first heard that Benefit is coming up with a new concealer that doesn't cake or settle into fine lines, and that will give that amazingly concealed and brightened under eye area.  And for someone like me who's cursed with a wrinkled, dark under eye area...it means SALVATION! So yeah, I actually went gaga for months because the amazing product is due to be launched in April.  To wait that long for something that will help me deal with my beauty problems is not my cup of tea. Me, wait?  DUH.   But I did. (laughs) Oh well, I didn't have any choice.  But I was told that this product is really good that it's gonna be worth the wait. So when I finally got my hands on it during the Bloggers Launch , I instantly knew it's something I'm gonna love to bits.   Benefit Fakeup Concealer A hydrating crease-control concealer with Vitamin E and Apple Seed extract that hides dark circles and diffuses fine lines ...

The weather's messed up again.  It was scorching hot yesterday afternoon but it rained like crazy in the evening...does that mean summer has ended already?   ^_^ Anyhoo, here's something I wore to get my mood hyped up despite the wonky weather: K-Palette Real Lasting Eyebrow L'oreal eyebrow pencil MAC brow set in Girl Boy MAC eye shadows in Aquadisiac (lid) and Sweet and Punchy (crease) K-Palette 24Hr Real Lasting Eyeliner in Black (new formulation) K-Palette 1Day Lash Perm Volume Mascara Max Factor Facefinity liquid foundation in Sand Benefit Fakeup concealer in Medium Revlon Age Defying powder Sleek Contour Kit in Medium MAC Betty Blush in Cream Soda MAC l/s in Please Me + Peachstock Yay or Nay?

A few weeks ago, I got an invite to attend the launch of Benefit's newest and most awaited product, the Fakeup Concealer .  I heard about this product months ago and have been waiting for it since then. Why the excitement, you ask?  Well, unlike other concealers, Benefit Fake Up Hydrating Concealer is a two-in-one product.  It has a hydrating shell of moisturizing balm with skin smoothing and plumping ingredients such as Vitamin E (prevents aging) and Apple Seed Extract (helps brighten skin) and it's also has a concealer in the center to hide pigmentation.   In short, it's a skincare + makeup product in one.   Yay, for multipurpose products! ^_^ Our friends from Benefit PH prepared a short, but very entertaining skit to introduce the product.   It started with Detective RJ leading the case of the missing Fake Up concealer.  They have two suspects: 1) Frenchie , the kikay french maid who's obsessed with her dark circles and 2...
