Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Supreme Matte Lipstick in Bright Pink

Soft sunlight, a gentle breeze against your skin, flowers dancing along a field of magical dreams - these are the imageries Shu Uemura's Blossom Dream Spring/Summer 2013 Collection evokes.

I've heard a lot of great things about this line, one of which is the extraordinary texture of its matte lipsticks!

So, when I heard 'matte' + 'lipstick', you know I just had to try it out.

I picked up Bright Pink (P1,100), which is one of the two lipsticks in the range.

Post Digital Perming Hair Care

Hey 'er boys and girls!

I know, I know it has been WEEKS since I last posted, but I have two words for the erm, content delay: Wedding Preparations.

I am telling you, my schedule has been been filled to the brink because of the seemingly endless suppliers we need to book. And because I am still being a persistent know-it-all, I still haven't tapped a wedding coordinator.

Actually, I almost booked one but that girl turned out to be a prick - good thing she showed her true colors before we paid her asking price. Sheesh, there are a lot of, for a lack of better word, unpleasant people in Manila's very small wedding industry.

That reminds me, I need to do a new post for my wedding series on this blog. I think I just wrote one article for that, like four months ago. tee-hee!

Anyway, I got my hair digi-permed late in December and I've been wanting to share with you guys the aftercare products I use for my locks.

I was actually very frustrated because I couldn't find products that are specifically engineered for curly hair anywhere in the city. Its like every product is for straight hair only. Let's blame the media for this single-mindedness, shall we?

Shampoo

Good thing we now have access to more international products via SnR, where I was able to buy TIGI Catwalk Curlesque shampoo.

I'm Back!! Let's Catch Up!

And I'm sorry for the hiatus during the holidays.

I spent the Christmas week in Hong Kong, where the low-temp weather was a welcome break from the unusually hot December we were having in Manila.

We stayed at the Marco Polo Gateway and I'm actually quite surprised that for a camwhore like me, I did not take photos of our rooms. But, I did take a couple of shots of Three on Canton, the official breakfast hub during our six-day stay in HK.
