my mini-room-makeover

sabi ng nanay ko, lalaki daw ako sa katawan ng babae sa sobrang kalat ko.
anyone can attest to this, sometimes the pile of clothes (both used and newly washed are mixed together like watered down guache on a seascape painting) and speaking of sea, it is usually a sea of everything about half a meter up from the floor.

in my defense, my room is a mess, yes, but it does not stink at all. it smells of downy and cologne and shampoo, cause i shower before bed and i don't dry or comb my hair before i lay me down to sleep.

and that is why, by the second time my bank issued me another credit card, i splurged on things to make my little prison of a room all comfy and pretty. i say this with confidence because my room is about 124  x 108 inches, you do the math, convert it to meters or yards or square feet but the fact of the matter is my room is an upscale dog house.

A.D.D, back to topic, i went to this japanese store where they sell all kinds of cutesy-patootsey stuff. things that there's no use for aside from em being uber cute. i started grabbing some brushes and hairbands, until aisle by aisle, my arms weren't enough anymore, i grabbed a small cart, and went around.

happiness until the 20th cometh the creditcard bill.

i will share, cause i am proud of my mini project!

watsons mini haul

my replacement credit card came a week ago, banks keep spelling my name wrong, and for the break in, i took it for a little spin around the mall and alas in 3 days i have maxed out a platinum credit card.


so thank god for debit cards, i got to buy a few items from maybeline, elf, fashion21, covergirl, max factor. all from watsons.
every item is less than 600 pesos! except for the body shop shimmer blush/shaddow.
award lahat! :)
and i'm not just being lazy, every single piece is a bang for the buck.


better than the cat eye line, just be sure to get the waterproof make up remover for mascara, cause this can stay on for days, and then it gets clumpy and when you try to force it, some of your lashes will come off with it.

in luminance. looks darker than it is, slap on some tinted moisturizer, and brush this over your face and you're good to go.

in brown and shimmery tan: fool proof eyeshadow. dual color for dimension.

in pearl: two places: inner corners of the eye, and underneath the brow bone. cheapest highlighter ever, 85 php

in bronze: this is more than 600 bucks, it's double. but this is a very good buy. from body shop, around 2k, blush for all types of skin color. doubles as eyeshadow or highlighter too.

in rosewood: perfect for olive to tan skin, gives you color... like a 2 minute makeout session.

in bm31 (almost nudey)

in noir: spell genius... felt tip, great as long as you don't use cream eyeshadow before you apply this marker type liner or else it will just slide off


updates bout 100 in 365: i am still awaiting my online purchases from last month, and boy do time seem slow when you are on the waiting end.
