I just love how easily accessible Essie polishes here in the UK! There's practically a Boots store in every corner here and you can get Essie from there. I haven't been buying a lot of stuff from Essie but the ones I got, I really like. The first of which is this nail polish duo called Essie Baby Boy or Baby Girl? which contains two nail polishes: ( Read more... )

Who doesn't love pastel nails? I feel like they will always be on trend whenever the weather becomes nicer and the sun decides to come out and play. In Manila, that's probably 50% of the time (the other 50% is when it rains). Over the past year, I've accumulated some pastel nail polish colors that I think are just a pretty little selection. The ( Read more... )

In Manila, we have Japan World, Daiso and Saizen where you can get all sorts of different items for Php99 or Php88. I found the equivalent here in the UK and it's called PoundWorld! Everything they sell is worth one pound! I love me a good bargain so when I found it at a local shopping center near my flat, I was really happy. I've been there twice ( Read more... )

I didn't get a lot of products for this round even if it is payday weekend. I'm saving up for the Narssisist palette that's why! But I just couldn't resist these two bits from Revlon. They're both something I've been wanting to try and I finally bit the bullet and bought them. One is a new product and the other is something that's been around for a ( Read more... )

I usually post NOTDs on a weekend but my blogging schedule is cray cray this week so this is going up on a Thursday. On makeup and skincare items, I try to steer away from scented products. Though I don't have sensitive skin, sometimes they can cause breakouts. But this when Revlon released their scented nail polish range, I was curious. The super ( Read more... )

I do not have a lot of Essie nail polishes. And it's because I was mostly using OPI. There's a big beauty debate on which brand is the best when it comes to nail colors. I think I'm still an OPI girl but there's nothing wrong with branching out once in a while. Last year, I got to try Essie Min Candy Apple -- reviewed here -- and fell in love with ( Read more... )

Christmas and New Year are over but that doesn't mean we can't wear glitter nail polish anymore! I still have holiday hangover so I can't quite let go of glitter nail polishes yet. But since I have to go to work again, I decided to pair it with a more office approriate shade. Good thing I got just the color in my last December Ipsy bag - reviewed ( Read more... )

In my side of the world, it's already the last day of 2013! So I'm going to greet everyone an a Happy New Year! I love this particularly holiday because I think it's the most festive and everyone is just ready to celebrate the best of 2013 and already looking forward to what 2014 has to offer. I haven't decided on my makeup for tonight yet but my ( Read more... )

What a busy busy week this has been! For some reason, Bin and I haven't really  been very organized this year with our Christmas shopping. We still have a few items on our list that we're pinning down on the day before Christmas (24th!) which is something that hasn't happened to us before. We usually have everythin done a week before Christmas but ( Read more... )

I think everyone who got the November Ipsy bag can agree that it was one of the best bags from Ipsy. It was only my third bay so that's not saying much but I have to say that I was really excited to get all of the items in my bag.  I've already tried all of them except for the Glamglow skincare item which I'm planning to use this weekend. Today, ( Read more... )
