Me and my Neon-inspired nails



Me and my friend were walking around the department store when we came across displays of nail polishes. I decided to buy as I have been bored with monotone painted nails and would love a pop of color. I love the summer vibe of neon colors on my nails so I bought 5 of them.

So how did I do it? Simple. Apply 2 coats of nail polish. A different color per nail. Make sure the first coat is almost dry before applying the second coat. Let it dry. You might notice that the colors are a little bit dull, so apply a layer of top coat to give it a shine. Dry and there you have it. Neon-inspired nails. You can also paint the letter 'm' if you want just like the m&m chocolate candies.

Nail Polishes used are the ff (available in all leading stores)
Sassy Color in Neon Blue 7ml / P15
Sassy Colors in Neon Violet 7ml / P15
Sassy Colors in Neon Green 7ml / P15
Sassy Colors in Neon Red 7ml / P15
Klik in Neon Orange 7ml / P18.25
(top coat) Caronia in Natural 8ml / P22.75

MEMEBOX Unboxing: 'Anti-Aging'


This is my first memebox as I have been a late bloomer with regards to subscription and beauty boxes. I have just learned of Memebox in the early February and just when I was starting with it, I learned too that they will be ending international shipping outside South Korea, China and US starting February 11, 2015. Despite it, I did have enough time to get a box of my own 5 days before international shipping was discontinued. Most of their boxes during that time were sold out and among the available boxes, the Anti-Aging box was the one that I was really interested in. So I did purchase this one. 


This Membox cost me $29 + $5 regular internationl shipping to the Philippines. It was definitely an agony mixed with

UNBOXING SAMPLE ROOM: Belo SunExpert Face Cover SPF40 (1st purchase)

I have registered for sometime at Sample Room but at first didn't have enough points or didn't find any products am interested to sample on. Hence, I have been regularly checking their site for newly released or restocked samples that I would like to have and luckily I finally found something I would like to try on.

But first of all, for those who don't know about Sample Room, it is a sampling website that offers free samples. Upon registration you will be given 100 points which can be used to avail free samples. You can avail a maximum of 3 samples in one transaction. Be reminded that samples are free but you will have to shoulder shipping fees. To learn more, visit their website at www.sampleroom.ph

So going back to Belo SunExpert Face Cover SPF40, I am really glad to have this as it was given in its full size. It retails at P329.75 but I just used 90 points to avail it and paid P140 for shipping. I could just buy this in leading department stores and drugstores but by availing at Sample Room, I get to save P189.75! Isn't that just awesome? I know I am somewhat acting like a cheapskate but it is also the perfect time to try Sample Room for the first time.

UNBOXING GLAMOUR BOX April 2015: "Beauty and The Beach"


Yet again another Glamour Box Unboxing. First of all, I didn't plan on buying this box when it was released earlier since I have stocked up on body sunblocks and I have just enough underarm whitening cream and deodorant. But recently, I have been on family vacations and am running out. There's this summer outing I'll be going to this May. I planned on buying sunscreens in preparation but ended up buying this box, after all I'll be needing it. It is a complete set perfect to beat the summer heat.
