Hurricane Brown and Grey Lenses plus Stuff


GEO Hurricane Brown and Grey Lenses from Dull to Doll!

<3 Sponsored lenses by Valerie of Dull to Doll, she is so sweet!

These lenses are perfect for me, they are vibrant, subtle but noticeable. And with my smallish eyes- 14.00 diameter is just right for me. The enlargement effect is natural. Larger lenses make me look like an alien. These lenses are comfortable just like any other GEO lenses I have. Doesn't dry out my eyes and you can barely feel them on. Their pattern even looks amazing up close and very natural looking from afar.

I am trying to improve my makeup (contouring, etc) especially the eyebrows, I've kind of mastered the "korean" eyebrows shaping xD

Been using my mom's skin care line Elisse on my face because I had breakouts and now my skin looks better. I've hardly ever retouched my skin on these photos! It's amazing! ♥

Other makeup products that I've used are from local brands.


Prettia Platinum Beige Review

Hello everyone! This is a review about the Kao Liese Prettia Bubble Dye in Platinum Beige.
It is a nice ashy light brown color that I've always wanted to try.

It's been a month since I've dyed my hair with this product and I must say that it gave me a very good result! It may not be the exact shade that the model is wearing in the box, but its pretty close! :D
During the early process of application, I really doubted that it will cover all of my thick hair. But as the application of the foam goes on- its really easy breezy! I would love to use the same dye product again because it is very very easy to use, no hassle at all. xD
The dry feeling of the hair after its been wash is minimum-can be treated by daily conditioner.
And the color looks great and even.

After 4 weeks:
I must say that as time goes by, the color gets ashier and ashier which is really cool! XD
Prettia has a very pretty wide range of shades to choose from:

Burgundy Hair!

Hello everyone I'm back with hair dye review post!
I've been really really liking darker burgundy hair lately and its already been a month since I dyed my hair. I liked the color but its really hard to maintain light colored hair when the roots are already showing up. So I decided to go for a darker shade. I always go to gabalstory online wig shop for hair color inspiration and I really wanted this color for a change! XD

So cute right?

I went to Watson's yesterday and saw these hair dye boxes with lovely shades! They got really nice mahogany and burgundy shades! 1 box is not enough for my hair so I've decided to get two different colors, I love mixing hair dyes! Haha!

When I opened the boxes, I was surprised to find another boxes with their original packaging.
I believe that this is a Japanese hair dye brand and is very good with covering gray hair.

I must say that unlike other cream formula hair dyes that I've tried this one is very easy to apply and it slides on hair really smoothly.

And for the results!
Covered my roots pretty well!
Here's the color under natural lighting (daylight)
With flash on.
Indoor poor lighting.

Overall, I really really like Silk Touch! In real life, my hair is more magenta than in the pictures but I really love it!

I really want to try out other shades in the future.

PROS:

Cheap! 1 box costs Php275
They come in so many different shades.
Mild formula, my hair still feels the same (well as of now)
The cream formula slides on hair smoothly
It's like Palty and made me wonder why Palty is so expensiveee.

CONS:

Cheapo Packaging xD
Color bleeds on towel after shower and on shirt when hair is still wet!
I am really hoping that this bleeding will occur during first day.

I shall update you with my hair color after few days if it changes! :)
Thanks for reading!

NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams!

After reading so many good reviews about NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams, I got really excited buying some really good shades! First of all, I LOVE THESE. I've never been a fan of lipsticks but these are win! I have these 4 shades but still wanting to get the Antwerp.
What I love about these lip creams:
+They're matte!
+Glides on smoothly plus the they smell like cupcakes!
+Long lasting!
+They won't smudge off
+They are CHEAP
+They come in really cute shades!
+Doesn't take too much layer because they are very pigmented and opaque!

What I don't like:
+The good shades are always sold out!
+There's no orange shade lol
Swatches!

me wearing Milan! This shade is kind of pink and peach at the same time. Very good for everyday wear. Normally I would apply a little concealer/bb cream on my lips before wearing pale lipsticks but I didn't have to because this Lip Cream is very opaque!
Me wearing San Paulo, this is also great for everyday (atleast for me) I think it will compliment any skin tone.
Me wearing Addis Ababa (their bestseller shade) It's a bright pink lippy and matte. It's perfect! XD
me wearing Monte Carlo, Love this! I will wear this to the mall xD usually red lipsticks will bleed and get on your teeth but with Nyx's lip cream formula, it doesn't smudge/bleed or stick to your teeth! XD

Hair highlights update and stuff!

Hello everyone, I just did my highlights few days ago and this is my update. My hair is now lightening due to shampooing and washing. And my highlights are really showing up! xD
But the problem is, the bleached parts are becoming really brassy and orangey yikess!

I've heard about purple/blue shampoo but sadly it is not available here in Philippines, I've looked everywhere.:( I saw a couple online, quite expensive though and plus, I am on a tight budget right now. So I came across a DIY on how to make purple/blue just by using food color/dye. Yey. xD I really wonder if it will work.

LOLZ I got over excited I put so much dye on my hot oil treatment cream and on sample shampoo.
I heard the results of these won't be really "instant" though there will be a noticeable change after first application. I think I have to use these blue stuff regularly to completely remove the brassiness of my hair.
My hair has become a little less brassy after using these, I think. xD Maybe next time I'll try to leave the products on longer.

LOL Starscream xD
