SHISHEIDO BABY POWDER

NATURACTOR REVIEW

BEFORE:
this is me after my brows. i only have GT COSMETICS - Moisturizing Cream SPF60 on. (which i absolutely LOVE!) i NEED the SPF since Naturactor doesn't have SPF. 
my overused makeup sponge. AVAILABLE at LuxeKiss. 
i use both 140 and 151.
140- eye area, sides of nose, blemishes
151-face
pointed tip of the makeup sponge for eye area for more defined application
140 and 151 blended!
compare to my before photo! blemishes and dark marks - poof!

AFTER:
full makeup applied 😊


VERDICT:
ADDICTED is an understatement.

MY REAL KILAY

my Jonas Borces salon experience


it's been long overdue! a trip to the salon. when my roots start to grow that's when i get fussy and well, it's ombre' hair au naturel! haha..

my bestfriend has been taking trips to the Jonas Borces Salon, located at Nasipit, Talamban, Cebu City. i decided to give it a try! i've heard about Jonas Borces and read about him, a very talented person indeed! though he was in the salon, i was shy to meet him. hehe.. they are famous for their HAIR REBONDS! which i asked was for P1800 for all lengths.

i love the nice vibe of the parlor! clean and simple! my parlorista, who i forgot to ask her name, was fast, and she knew what she was doing!


okay, that's me, taking a selfie while looking crazy..


 i decided to have a manicure to kill the time and i opted for zebra print nail stickers. it's an additional P100 for the P100 labor for cleaning..

which i quickly regretted because it only lasted until i made dinner. haha. but my attendee did a very good job of cleaning my fingernails!

my hair retouching (2-3 inches) by the way, took about 40minutes to an hour after application, and cost me P650

ASTRONAUT!!
i decided to try the treatment, i forgot the name, it sounded swedish or something. as recommended by my best friend. after my parlorista washed my hair color, she applied the treatment serum, which only cost me P200 by the way. after the treatment, i immediately saw the effect! my hair felt super soft!

AFTER!
i didn't go for rebonding my hair yet! i decided to give it a try! i had my hair ironed FLAT for P80 and well, i'm not sure how i like it. haha. what do you guys think? if i do go for rebonding my hair, i guess i'll wait a little longer for my hair to grow grow grow!


it was a lazy monday afternoon, and cost me P1050! and i'm super happy!! :) tipped my


VERDICT: i am sooo coming back to Jonas Borces! til the next time my hair roots annoy me!



NAKED BASICS


i got terribly bored while waiting for hubby for our sunday dinner out so i had a lot of extra time for make-up playtime! i used ALL of the NAKED BASICS colors and i absolutely loved them! i still need more practice though.

BROKEN MAKE-UP - Alcohol Fix - Success!

so my friend accidentally dropped her MAC Studio Fix + SPF15 Foundation last night when we went clubbing. it was totally wrecked when we opened it and she just wanted to throw it away. but i said it's still worth saving!

read about this trick on google, even michelle phan did this too! 👍

BEFORE:


DURING:
made it finer with a spoon! dinurog pa ng todo! 
i forgot to tak a photo while mixing, it was too much fun! what i did was add alcohol slowly. careful not to make it too dense. after i got a muddy texture, i covered with cling wrap to press and smoothen

still wet! and then after a few hours-



AFTER:
good as new!!! well, not as smooth and has cracks on the uneven pressing but works just as well as it did before!! still smells like alcohol but all is well!
not drying on my face at all!!

if it bothers you to much, just throw it away! but if it can still be saved, why not! 😊 hope this helps!
