Franken Polish:holographics + get to know the SM Accessories ambassadors

I do hang out at instagram most of the time & a dear friend tagged me about my workstation. At that time it was a mess but still decided to take a picture of it anyway. As i did so, i just felt like making holographic polishes when i caught a glimpse of my spectraflair so i made 4!

Actually it's more like 5..hehehe

My camera is just not cut out for capturing holographic polishes but i did try... I don't want to sound arrogant or something to that effect but my polishes look way better than the pictures. hehehe

I didn't even dare watermark it for fear that doing so may somehow affect the quality of my already-poor-image. I haven't named them yet though. I would have to think of a name. Y'all know that i suck at naming. hehehe

left to right: violet,green,blue & red

It's so difficult to take pictures... i don't want to tweak my settings just to improve the quality because i feel that i will be cheating not just you but also myself...


I made a short video to show how they look like... but i didn't realize that if i uploaded it on youtube its gonna look darker. :(
it's like a waste of time...


Then i made China Glaze GR8 even "greater" by adding spectraflair on it so now i already call it GR8TR. It's the one on the left, the right yellow holo was made by a very dear friend & she calls it Fever.

left: GR8TR right: Fever (not my franken)

Again, my pictures suck but they look awesome in person!


As soon as i can get more spectraflair i might make a few bottles to sell for those who are interested in getting holographic polishes specially here in the Philippines. What do you think? Will anyone be interested in buying a bottle? You know how it's almost impossible to buy holographic polishes here.

Or if not, then maybe just a holographic top coat.

left to right: franken-fine linear holo, franken-scattered linear holo
OPI DS Shimmer

This is the difference of the 2 Spectraflair grade that i was able to get. The one in the middle is better than the left one,no? The middle one looks almost like OPI DS Shimmer!

Here is a short video to see it better...

I love frankening polishes!
^_^
Have you tried making your very own mix of polishes?

On to the other hand....it's almost time to unveil who are the SM Accessories brand ambassadors!


By this time around, they have already been revealed on the event itself, but i wasn't able to go. boo hoo!


Tomorrow, ill tell you all who they are if you haven't guessed yet.

Hope you are enjoying your evening!

blog commercials~

Just a short break from our usual program & giving you a heads up on what's new & what's hot~

Continuing on with the 4th ambassador of SM Accessories...


Here is the teaser video..


I think i have a fair idea who that is.. how about you?
Who is your guess?

Check out their facebook fan page to find out how to be one of the lucky winner of their exclusive event & be 1 of 4 winners of P25,000.

Can't wait to find out who are they?
Just a few more days & you'll know.

And another happening that im sure you will find interesting is Sample Room.



Try Before You Buy. Who wouldn’t want to try the product first before buying them?
Sample Room is here to give you that option. And this is their inspiration.


Sample Room is a sampling site that banks on the power of free product sampling. It is an online community that changes your beauty-shopping pattern; and an interactive community where your opinions matter and where all beauty lovers are valued.

You don’t need to:
- Take a risk at a full-sized product that may not work for you or may give you an allergic reaction
- Rely on reviews alone that might not jive with your skin type (as you get to try the product yourself)
- Waste money on a product that might not work for you.

You will be able to:
- Patch-test, and road-test the product you are interested in purchasing- if the product suits you and works well with your skin
- Experience the product, and decide after finishing a sample size if the product is right for you
- Read reviews from consumers who have the same skin type as yours
- Enjoy your purchase, as it is a well-researched and well-informed purchase. Definitely value for your money!

 I have always been curious of that because it started way way back during my early blogging days. I just can't quite remember the name of this first sampling site that i know (or is it just a blog back then?) which has the name that goes like "my pretty lil pink box" or something to that effect.

So now that we have it here, maybe we will be able to find out more ways to discover products & at the same time gives us a chance to find out what works for us.

Anyway, you can add them up to find out the latest news about them if you are interested


I'm looking forward to this since this is something that i think is quite beneficial provided that you will really be able to get products that you have really wanted to try.

So, make sure that you check out their facebook because they'll be sampling soon!

Mont Bleu Glass Nail Files~

As a nail art enthusiast, taking care of my nails is something that i make a point of doing. I have been wearing tips for the past couple of weeks just because my real nails had been chipping like crazy!

My nails are doing good now, thank goodness! I am sporting a very beautiful gray polish as i am typing it & im just so happy that my nails are longer & healthier than before.

Now, let me ask you all a question, when the time comes that you just want to go back to nubbins, how do you shorten your nails? I bet that most of you would say "i simply clip my nails using my clippers." I do that too! What if i tell you that THAT is the reason why my nails chip like crazy?

I'm not really a pro but personally i find that when i cut my nails the tendency is that my nails would chip little by little over the edge. It's like simply cutting it without filing it afterward makes the edges rough so the end result would be chipping. So i make sure that i have a couple of nail files on my stash. But buying nail files every now & then is just simply tiring & it costs money too.

There's no way for you to clean disposable nail files (that's why we call it disposable,no?hehehe) to prolong its life much as we want to. We just have to resign ourselves to the fact that it would just find its way on to the bin & us to the store again to buy more.
*sigh*

But that was before!
Now we have glass nail files that we can keep forever! How nice is that?

A glass nail file, also known as crystal nail file – is an ideal nail care tool for your natural or artificial nails, yet is not so common, as other nail care tools. Professionals in beauty salons use glass nail files for manicure and pedicure procedures as well as individuals use glass nail files for their needs in everyday life.


You just need to own one & you're set for life! hahaha!
I love that concept!


Don't they look pretty?
Me wanna own all of them! hihihi
But it would be pointless since one would just be enough for me but who could resist these colorful & cute assortment?

You can check out these cute files over at Mont Bleu.
They have a great selection of these glass nail files like the handpainted glass nail files or the ones with swarovski crystals on them, simple or luxury-styled ones even the no-frills clear glass nail file.

They even offer promotional glass nail files perfect for advertisement.
How clever!

OMG!
Now i want to really own one too.
I'd use this in public just for everyone to see! hahaha!

Do you own a glass nail file?
I think this is a good investment,no? No need to buy nail files again & again. As long as you take good care of your nail file then you won't ever need anything anymore.


Aside from glass nail files, Mont Bleu also offers hand made jewelries. Now these, i have to check!
*heads on over to Mont Bleu*

Okaaayyyyy, im off to exploring the website now & i have to say that i am liking their product selections.
Maybe there's something i can get as christmas gifts... for myself!
hahaha!
Well, im back to browsing.

Hope you all are having a great day!

Who will be Derek's new Anna?

I'm sure you all have seen the PLDT commercial with the Anna Banana song. First time i heard it, his voice kept on playing on my head over & over.


You can watch the video if you haven't seen it yet:



Isn't this boy adorable?
Bringing the old fashioned "harana" into a whole new level!
 The second installment of the commercial is when Anna answered Derek! Ok, i know you know what she said. Take a look...



Just look at the dislikes that this video had gotten..haha!
Poor Anna! I think she will be hated for quite sometime on & off cam...lol!
Anyway, it's a good thing that Derek has a pretty supportive family. You can get over painful things when you have the people around you to lean for support, right?



Poor Derek,huh?
But then, he is still young & cute to boot!
I'm sure he'll meet more Anna or even Maria or Rachel or Suzy, etc... the list is endless! The world is not gonna end with Anna. This heartbreak will even make him stronger & a lot wiser in choosing girls. Everything is a learning experience.

Take this advice from your "ate" (older sister), everything is going to be alright. I'm sure of that!

Now for the fun part...Do you know someone who can be Derek's next Anna?
If you know a cute & charming little lady ages 12-16 then you have to let them join the hunt for Derek's new Anna! Visit http://www.dereksnewanna.com/ & submit a video entry on why they should be Derek's new Anna.
The winner will be a part of PLDT's next commercial & even take home a Samsung Ultrabook too! How cool is that?

Let's help Derek find a new Anna!

Hope you all have a great day!

Going shoe shopping...?

...then you have to check out Ferreti!


I thought at first that Ferreti is an imported shoe brand, so i was surprised when i learned that it's a local brand! This is something that we ought to support!

One reason why i don't actually take a look at shoes in department stores that much is because their sizes are always for those that got average feet, but since i am big, my eyes just go green with envy with all the lovely shoes that i want to wear but i just can't.

Good thing that Liz said that they will come up with bigger sizes!
Yay for that!!!
I can't wait!

Head on over to the site to take a look at their current selections. Did i mention that they offer free shipping nationwide? No?
Well, they do!
Isn't that a great thing?!!!!
Can't wait talaga for their bigger shoe sizes!!!!

Just click on the picture to check out the website.

Have a great week,ladies!

Nivea Pure & Natural Product Line


I had received some packages a couple of weeks from Nivea & had been testing them ever since i got them. I'll be making a review on them after a couple more weeks of trying but for now, i'll go first with their Pure & Natural Line.

NIVEA Pure & Natural products use gentle and pure ingredients that respect your skin’s nature so you don’t have to worry about sensitivity problems and irritations that are known to be associated with some artificial and chemical ingredients.
 
The range is suitable for all skin types even to extra sensitive skin.
 
What does it do?
 
NIVEA Pure & Natural products are inspired by nature, but they also draw on our 100 years of skin care expertise and commitment to the highest quality standards.
This means the NIVEA Pure & Natural range offers a pleasant and affordable way of looking after yourself naturally and doing your bit for the environment, while enjoying the highly effective care you’ve come to expect from NIVEA.
It's good that NIVEA has this line. I am actually loving this line, especially the deodorant. Why?


It doesn't have aluminum salts!
I have a very sensitive underarm.
A lot of girls swear that aluminum salts make their underarm lighter but in my case it's the opposite. It makes my underarm itchy & red. It darkens my armpit & doesn't even control body odors. What the fudge?!

I used to use pure aluminum salt before when i was a teenager but with all the hype of using deodorant & body sprays i was lured into using those chemical-laden deodorant. While it does a wonderful job of controlling body odors, it makes my underarms dark. Eeekkkk!!! I can't believe i'm telling you that i had dark underarms. But take note, the word is HAD for now my underarm is waaaayyyyy lighter than before. Not that you'll see me showing my underarm off for everyone to see. LOL!


But this line saved my underarm from further embarrassment! It also doesn't have parabens, how cool is that?!

If you are like me & is allergic to aluminum salt, try this one for this might be the one that you are looking for. I'm not recommending this because i got the product for free but because it works for me.

Next is the Pure & Natural Wipes...


It's good that this is biodegradable.

I think this is the only biodegradable wipes that is available in the market. This is perfect for baby use because it doesn't have parabens, alcohol & perfume-free.


Personally, i don't see any difference about the other wipes out there, aside from it being biodegradable. Even if it is bio-degradable, it doesn't mean that it will decompose as soon as you throw it. It will still take some time before it decomposes too.

It is perfume-free but it doesn't mean that it is scent-less,ok? For some reason i don't like how it smell. It's hard to describe it but i just find it a bit unappealing. But i appreciate that it is almost chemical-free that makes it perfect for those that have sensitive skin specially for babies.

I said that i like this line especially the deodorant.

Do check this line out in the supermarket. It is already available.
^_~

Hope you are enjoying your evening,ladies!
Jaa ne~!

Press Release: L'oreal Men Expert Pure & Matte Charcoal Black Foam

I remember the days when facial washes was not really a big deal back then. My mum was actually against using facial washes before for she had this notion that it's already a 'cosmetic' & would eventually give me zits. I insist on using the product that i was using up until the time that even she was already using it & it had already become a household item from then on.

But that was just addressed for females. It's actually good that companies now manufacture goods that are specifically made for their skin. Now in comes L'oreal Men Expert Pure & Matte Charcoal Black Foam. It's great to see that a very trusted brand to release something for men.


Let's get to know what L'oreal has to say about this product:


Combat Oily and Dull Skin.
Trust the Black Weapon.

Who is it for?
Oily prone skin? In the pores, impurities and excess oil/sebum accumulate. On your skin, sebum oxidizes and darkens, making you look shiny, unclean and dull. Take action!

What does it do?
 1. Cleanses, clears & mattifies for long
Enriched with Salicylic Acid, this formula cleanses and clears skin efficiently: excess sebum and dull dead cells are removed, skin is clear & mattified for long. Pores are visibly tightened and blackheads are reduced, your skin becomes soft, smooth and radiant!

2. Reinforces the skin’s natural resistance
ADS™ Active Defense System, a powerful soothing active ingredient that helps to reinforce the skin’s natural resistance against daily aggressions.
Results: Less irritation, less tightness and more comfort.

3. Fine bubbles remove impurities from skin
With L’Oréal Paris’ new foaming texture with fine bubbles, your skin is cleansed and impurities are washed out, This product helps to avoid sebum rebounding after wash and leaves you a pleasant fresh feeling.

Recommendation for Use:
Lather in the palm of your hand. Apply on wet face and gently massage, concentrating on forehead, nose and chin. Avoid eye contour areas. In case in contact with the eyes, rinse immediately. Suitable for daily usage.

Tested under dermatological control
Tested on Asian men’s skin

Suggested retail price for Men Expert Pure & Matte Charcoal Black Foam is Php195.  Available nationwide in leading department stores, drug & beauty stores, supermarkets and hypermarkets (SM Department Stores and Watsons Beauty Stores, PCX, Landmark Department Stores and Supermarket, Robinsons Department Stores, Shopwise, Mercury Drug Stores, Gaisano Metro Department Stores, 7-11).

Actually, i was sent a product by L'oreal & since i can't use it i gave it to my brother. I'll let you know what his feedback is about this product after a couple of weeks. My brother has a very very very very very very very oily skin. I think this runs in the family...that's why we all have large pores..
>_<
Thanks for that,mom!
(-__-")
LOL!

How about you?
What does your man use?

Hope y'all have a good day,sweeties!

Press Release: Sunsilk Co-Creations

The TV Commercial for Sunsilk Co-Creations shampoo has been going on & on for quite sometime.

While i am not really a Sunsilk user, i always have great respect for local products that are really designed & created for Filipina-use. For it goes to show how dedicated the companies are in bringing out the best in every Filipinas without paying exorbitant price to achieve it.



Now here is what Sunsik has to say:

Everyone deserves beautiful hair. Sunsilk believes that the secrets to beautiful hair shouldn’t be locked behind the salon door. That's why Sunsilk has worked with internationally renowned hair experts to create salon-quality products for every girl, whoever she is, wherever she lives, whatever her hair type.

For over half a century, Sunsilk has relentlessly sought to bring brilliant hair products to millions of women across the world to care for hair and keep it at its best. In a quest to unlock the secrets to specific hair types, Sunsilk began a search for these specialist hair experts: the world’s best at what they do, be it straight, sleekness, hairfall or damage control. Experts who are not only superlative hair professionals, hairdressers or clinicians, but obsessive industry pioneers who don’t sleep until their clients have perfect hair. They are dedicated to the creation of the world’s best hair care products; they love, live and feel for that particular hair type; the kind of perfectionism you want to bottle. They’ve turned obsession into a life ambition.

So has Sunsilk, making it the perfect reason to work together; not as a one-off, but in a long-term partnership where their shared vision creates something new, different better.

Now, Sunsilk is co-creating product ranges with some of the world’s best hair experts. Their role – to “steer” and “stir”: providing valuable insight and knowledge to help create brilliant new products, working alongside the brand’s technical teams to produce brilliant new formulations for all hair types.
