I Love This Eyeliner Tip!



This is really cool! I might sound like an idiot because it really is the easiest thing to figure out but I'm not a make-up junkie or expert. This is actually a common problem : your eyeliner smearing or running from your lower lash line. Right? It is for me, especially since I have oily skin.

Just get a flat-headed eyeshadow brush, dip both sides into powder (lighter by one shade if you also want it to work like a concealer). Sweep right underneath the liner back and forth to set it and keep it from running. You're all done after that! 

I can never ever step out of the house without eyeliner : both on my upper and lower lash lines. Going out tomorrow, so I'm definitely going to do this. 

A Laid Back Afternoon w/ Celebrity Nails


(Late post)

It was my 2nd time to call for Celebrity Nails. I wanted Mama to try them out, too, so I took advantage recently just after my first round of chemo, because she stayed in our house for 2 nights.

Sabine had to go ahead, as always. If not, I would never hear the end of it. I'd rather let her go first so that I can get my mani, pedi and massage/foot spa in peace :)



















The girls always gladly oblige, but I give them a little extra each time and I make sure Sabine uses my own nail polish to avoid be charged.




















Then finally it was time for Mama and I to relax! They start you off with a foot soak in warm water.

























No nail or cuticle murdering here. The girls are really thorough yet gentle. I can fall asleep if I want to, because I don't feel like I need to be up to watch their every move.

The nail polish selection is modest, which is how I want it. I don't want too many shades to choose from, it becomes more difficult for me!



















I ended up choosing a really safe shade of pink (it appears to be beige, but it's not). Zoya's Pandora. Like!



















I also always get 30 minutes of foot and leg reflexology after the pedi OR a foot spa when needed. My total expense for this home service pampering session is P700 before tips. If you don't feel the need for a massage, subtract about P250. I don't think it's too much to pay, for the convenience of not leaving your home, getting stuck in traffic and looking for parking space.

Since this is a late post, I'm now due for a mani-pedi. They're coming tonight :)
