It's spacious and has a small pocket inside for small items. Product Dimension is 14.5 x 4.4 x 24.5 inches and weighs: 0.1 kg. I got this at CashCashPinoy.

6. Mario D’Boro Pointed Toe Flat Shoes at P809.77 (got it at 10% discount from the original price of 899.75). I've worn it to our company mass wedding event which has a red motif. It's very elegant and comfy too.

7. Japan Home Craft Parts Case in Pink at P88.00 - I'm using this case to house my bracelets and necklaces so I can easily see which one I'll wear for every single day :) I love the pink color and the adjustable dividers.

10. White Longsleeves at P270.00 - I've been wanting to have a white longsleeves which is so basic and finally I got one. It's very affordable yet very comfy and just the perfect fit for me.

Gluta-C Intense Whitening Toner

Hello guys...

I'm back with another review... Apologies for no posts, I've been really busy with pregnancy and my son... I have a lot of post to share and hopefully I can share it with you soon.

Gluta-C Intense Whitening Toner (100 ml) at P99.75- It is made of natural plant extracts such as witch hazel and mangosteen, which have antibacterial, antiseptic and anti-aging properties. The toner gently cleanses the face of impurities and effectively removes residual makeup. It helps smoothen the skin’s texture by controlling oil production, minimizing pores and moisturizing the skin.

Other Product Benefits:

• Gently cleanses residual dirt after basic cleaning
• Oil control
• Minimizes pores
• Refreshes the skin
• Anti-bacterial
• Anti-fungal
• Anti-acne

When it comes to skincare routine, I don't really use a lot of products. I just follow the Cleanse, Tone and Moisturize routine :)

I'm using Bifesta Bright Up Cleansing Lotion (review here) to clean my face, then Gluta-C Intense Whitening Toner to tone my skin and remove excess makeup. Finally, I moisturize using Pond’s Flawless White Dewy Rose Gel (review here). It's that simple for me. But recently, I have to use my Atomy Travel Skin Care Kit (review here) since I'm not allowed to use whitening products since I'm pregnant. I will definitely go back to my simple skincare routine once I gave birth :)

Swatches: 

Left - Gluta-C Intense Whitening Toner

Right - the Toner after I used it in my entire face... even after I cleansed my face there is still excess dirt which the toner totally removed.

What I like about Gluta-C Intense Whitening Toner:

I like the citrusy scent

I like the refreshing feel right after application

It's very gentle to my face

It does control my oily face to a minimum level

It does cleanses any excess dirt on my face

A very affordable price of P99.75/100ml

Formulated with some natural ingredients

Available in Mercury Drug, Watsons stores and leading supermarkets nationwide 

What I don't like about Gluta-C Intense Whitening Toner:

I don't see the minimizing of pores effect

Will I repurchase?

Definitely, after I gave birth... I discontinue using it for the meantime...

Hope you enjoyed reading my post. Till my next post guys...

Hi guys...

Allow me to share a pasalubong from my husband's Aunt who is living in Australia and visited us last May. I've also seen their products in display at Watsons for quite sometime now. Know more about LOL Cosmetics by reading here.

Description at LOL website: 

Versatility is what you want for unconventional lip colours. lol’s Kiss Kiss is a brilliant shade of deep pink appropriate for most occasions, even corporate settings!
You don’t have to worry about unflattering and unnaturally coloured lips with this wearable kind of fuchsia. It’s the kind of shade every girl should have on hand for instantly kissable lips.

I got the shade 08 Kiss Kiss (3g) - When swatched it appears to be a pink with a hint of purple and silver glitters but when worn on my lips just a pink color with silver glitters. 

Other shades available: 

Sweet Disposition - nude shade

Think Pink - natural pink shade

Bronze Age - bronze shade

Pitch Black - black shade

Dance with the Devil - a daily red shade

Paint the Town - a deep red shade

swatches...

What I like about LOL Kiss Kiss:
lovely & flattering pink shade
silky & smooth texture 
creamy yet non-sticky formula
average staying power
doesn't flake my lips
sleek packaging
affordable price
available at Watsons Stores


What I don't like about LOL Kiss Kiss:
cheap packaging (glass cover easily broken)

Will I repurchase?
No. I prefer to use organic or natural makeup especially that I'm pregnant...

Until my next post guys.

Pasalubong I...

Hello guys!!!

I have been very excited to share some pasalubong I got from my husband's Aunts and my friend who came back for a vacation from UAE. Thank you for the generosity and for remembering :D

The Body Collection Australia Jasmine and Green Tea Hydrating Body Lotion (50ml) -  I so love this one... it's very light when applied and has a nice scent.

Aromas Artesanales De Antigua Lavender Luxury Hand Cream (60ml) - my first ever hand cream :).. I really don't use hand cream before but I managed to maintain the softness of my hands thru Human Nature Lotions... This one is a bit heavy when applied, sticky at times so I need to apply a small amount only but smells nice...

Assorted makeup and brushes...

Essence Liquid Ink - it's very black and dries really fast...

Essence Multi Action Waterproof Mascara - I've tried this once and indeed so hard to remove...

Clinique Foundation Brush - bristles are very soft...

Catrice Powder Brush - bristles are also very soft and gets just the right amount of powder..

Cosmetica set - pallete de Maquillage (38.47g) -  contains a mascara, 4 lipsticks, 10 eyeshadows, a powder, 3 blushes, eye pencil, blush brush, eyeshadow brush and lip brush.
A wide selection of colors to choose from... eyeshadows and lipsticks are quite pigmented!

Dolce & Gabbana Organizer / Handbag - I so love the color but it's so heavy to bring along...

Estee Lauder Pink Faux Leather Cosmetic Case - I like this kit because it can house a lot of products yet still lightweight to bring...

LOL Lipstick in 08 Kiss Kiss (3g) - a very flattering fuchsia color.

Yiqing Cosmetic Brush - the bristles are very soft and doesn't fall out easily.

Until my next post guys...
