Charcoal Mask From Saizen

hi pretty!
here's my thoughts about the oh-so intriguing Charcoal Mask from Saizen
i've read about this product fr
om girltalk.
lots lots of good reviews are posted there that's why i decided to give this mask a try :)


i don't have lots of blackheads/whiteheads though, i just have a little amount of them on the sides of my nose. but my boyfriend is having problems on these stubborn black/whiteheads
that's why i insisted that he will try this product too!! heehee

we tried the charcoal mask together because he is somewhat afraid the mask will make his face break out. :) here's our pic with the mask on:
haha we look funny, trying not to laugh or smile or else the mask will crack haha


the product is gooey and i had a little problem putting this on my face and on my boyfie's face cause its kinda messy.

i've read in pammy's blog that she used a brush to apply the mask. well, i don't have a brush to use that's why i just worked it up with my finger. heehee
it has a scent too, i can't describe it but its not disturbing :)


what i don't like about it is that it hurts a little when the mask is pulled off. heehee and that it dosen't dry up quickly. heehee well thats just me. heehee but boyfie didn't have any problems with it :)

sooo heres a part of my face after i removed the mask


my boyfie said that my face was smoother hehe. and i felt that some white heads and black heads were pullled out too! :)


and here's a before and after pic of the boyfie's nose

sorry if the pic is kinda blurred :p
he was grossed out by the before pic hahaha. but then after using the charcoal mask, i can see that the black/white heads were really lessened!! i think he shoud use this atleast 2x a week to see more improvements heehee :)


its a must try product though most of the time its out of stock :(
hope you can try this charcoal mask too!

Nyx Concealer In A Jar

hi pretty!
here's my thoughts about the Nyx concealer in a jar:

i've heard lots of raves about this nyx concealer.
many bloggers said that this is HG material :)



i decided to buy myself a new concealer when my boyfriend told me that my under-eye is quite dark and it looks like i have a black-eye. hahaha. i think my under-eye darkness is caused by staying up until the wee hours. i bought nyx because of the g
ood reviews and also beacause its pretty cheap!



i purchased the medium shade.

i saw in martha's blog that this shade is perfect for NC40-42 ladies. (im NC42)
great! :)

here's the swatch on my wrist:


here's my bare eye:
(my eye looks funny here hehe)


and now with nyx concealer:
(see how it concealed the darkness of my under eyes?, oohh im loving it! heehee)

i like that it has a creamy consistency that makes it easier to blend.i used a concealer brush to apply it on my under eyes but i haven't perfected the way of applying concealer yet since im really new to using one. i also applied it on a nasty dark spot on my forehead and this concealer really helps to make it disappear! :)

im not sure if this is my HG concealer since i haven't tried much concealers heehee
but im loving it right now :)

how about you pretty, what's your HG concealer?

What Im Loving Right Now (food post) :)

hello ladies!
i hope you're having a fabulous Monday!

well im quite nervous right now cause i think my phone bill went rocket-high again :(
worst is that i can't check how much it is now.

i can only check it out tomorrow after my cut-off time.
arghhhhh! i hope its not that bad :( im sooo broke right now. LOL

anyhoo, today i'll share what's making me crazy as of th
e moment.
crazy in a good way heehee.

here it is! tada!
its called hana maki.

its a sushi rice wrapped with salmon sashimi and topped with japanese mayo and some fish roe!
oh boy! yumm yummm!


i had a first taste on these babies when i had my first trip to Singapore.
there was a small Japanese restaurant near our hotel,
and they called this dish flower maki :)

just from the first bite, i was hooked!
its like my mouth just had an orgasm. LOL.

well,that trip was ages ago.

i totally missed it! well i saw it again here in the Philippines. i think 2 years ago.
its being served at Sakae Sushi on Mall of Asia.
that place is way way far from my place.
and i rarely go there.
and while i was strolling last week, surprise surprise!!
a new branch of Sakae Sushi opened
and now it is more accessible from my place and f
rom my school!! yey!!
its located on SM Annex :)
i immediately bought 3 orders of it hahaha. i think its Php250+ per order, but its definetely worth it! :) i can't wait to go there ASAP! :)


its really good! trust me on this one. heehee
well that's my post for today.

wish me luck on my phone bill too pretty! heehee

Elf Studioline Eyebrow Kit

hello pretty!
its been a while since i posted a product review :)
so now, im sharing my thoughts about the elf studio line eyebrow kit


it can be bought at various department stores for Php300+
i like the casing of this baby, its so NARS-ish heehee

i like that it has a wide mirror too

the only shade available on the department stores is the light shade,
i think it suits me because i always have my
hair dyed on a light brown shade :)

here's a brief description from elf's website:

Create brows that are fuller, thicker, and more defined! The pigmented wax defines and shapes brows and the color complementing setting powder keeps them looking arched and perfected. The doubled sided taklbfon brush has one side to help arch your brows while the other side aids in filling them in. This duo provides lasting color definition for a naturally beautiful look


the brow kit has a gel has a gel part and a powder part.
the gel part helps to define and shape the brow while the powder sets the gel and fills in the brows too :)




it also comes with a double ended brush applicator


how to use?
use the angled brush to apply the gel, and use the blending brush to set the powder.

i don't have thin brows to start with, but i like using eyebrow make-up because i love how
it makes my brows looked filled in and well groomed :)


i did some swatches too
i haven't perfected the way of applying it yet haha.
but im getting there :)


without eyebrow make-up
with eyebrow make-up

zoomed in
Left-no brow make-up
Right-with brow make-up

i like this product, i actually use it every time i go out.
and no, it doesn't fade :)
i hope the medium and dark shade will be available here soon!
i would love too check them out too heehee

i hope you're having a good week pretty!
xoxo,
