Going One, Going Twice., and maybe THRICE? -NYX Heredes

My love for NYX Heredes is a feeling that will last forever and eternity, EXCEPT FOR THE FORMULA hahaha. I adore this shade among the 10 Nyx RL I got here. I just WISH they have this shade in their NYX LIPS (another line/collection of the brand). This is my "GO TO" shade everyday. I wear a different lipstick in the morning before I go out, and once it fades, I automatically get this and swipe all over my lips with a smack. (just kidding with the smack., haha). FYI: I always have 3-5 (how ironic) lipsticks in my bag because I am always on the go and I just junk them all inside my bag. BUT. I always end up using this shade. This is probably the best shade I got from NYX. It suits me well. It gives me this freshness right away. There's a certain matte-gloss vibe I feel (matte with a hint of gloss) and it just gives warmth to my face.

NYX Heredes is more of a brownish/bronze+orange shade. Probably with a little red added to it. This shade can be worn with any kind of look you want to do: neutrals, bright, smokey, or simply a fresh look. The color doesn't scream/shout in your lips because it is not really a bold color, well for those warm color. I am not sure with cool/pink undertone.

Brief Overview for NYX Round Lipstick

Pros:

• many great colors to choose from!
• Great price. 160-200 php per tube
• Very pigmented
• Very creamy
• not drying- lip balm is not necessary. but you may still use it.
• Good to experiment what shades suit you

Cons:

• Not as long-lasting as other lipsticks
• it easily melts! I bring this everyday in my bag. And everytime I use this while I am under the sun, it's horrible.
•  It melts a little, AND it is easy to crack/break because it is so soft (humid weather)
• because of humidity, it may bleed in your lips when you don't apply it properly
• SOAPY SMELL AND TASTE! GAHHDDD.
• The material used for the product is not sturdy. AS SEEN ON MY PHOTOS.

I already finished my 1st tube, and to my surprise., my 2nd tube is halfway empty! goshhhhhhhhhhh. 

bec it melted. that's why it looks like blah in my pic. =p

the label is fading. tear and wear? :p

uh-oh. (where's the cap with the shade inside thingy?)

halway right?

What's your favorite Lipstick? What shade is it? and Have you finished a tube of lipstick already? Tell me. :>

PS: will reply to the comments tomorrow. sorry. I am so slow in writing and it's past midnight. I have classes pa. :(

One Messy Midnight

I was awake until 4am last Friday(Saturday btw! Friday was yesterday. haha) mainly because I was so energized, trying to do DIY posts, cleaning my brushes which is a pain in the ass (for me. hassle eh. :| ), and taking pictures how I do deep cleaning and spot cleaning. WELL. what do you think? it was an epic fail! So frustrating. Maybe because something is pulling me? Or I do not have the courage yet to do all those stuffs. I promise, I'll redo them all, and will try to deliver a better one. =p .,

Can any one recommend me a good brush holder? I really want to give these babies a holder with a cover so they will not be exposed with dirt and I do not have to brush them all the time even though I don't use them all at the same time! (I only use 3-5 brushes on a daily basis)

my brushes are all Charm products! Just because they are cheaper, and the quality is superb! ^^  I have 8-10 brushes from Estee Lauder which are free.

spot cleaning. I need to save this product :))

Trying to mimic enkore's DIY make up brush spray cleaner. For spot cleaning! 

This one is epic fail. :| The sponge was too thick and the soap I used was not good either! Will do my 2nd attempt next time! ^^

2 hours of brush cleaning. who would want that? O.o ., But I don't like bacteria tooo! :|

Good Night Everyone!! ^^

From Last Year--Present (Hair Care Routine)

HEAVY PICTURES. ^^  =p
My hair at exactly 1 year ago.  I had it permed last Aug 2010 at CUT., I asked them for a bigger curlers.

whut am I doing here? lols. :))

see? super Ccuurrllyyy hair. O.o

still wearing a purple lens. :D

THEN MY HAIR AFTER 7-9 MONTHS,. (March-May 2011)

AND NOW. ^^ May 2011. -PRESENT.

I had my hair cut at home (home service by our mom's friend). She was the one who did my hair and make-up during mg 18 bday celebration. She is a patient of my mom and she works at a luxury salon, catering services to actors/actresses like Lorna Tolentino, Kim, Dina V. from head to foot. I do not know all her clients, but I am sure pretty she did great! :) Because of perming, my hair got little damaged, and became dried and brittle at the ends of my hair. So I just had it cut, and since I have been wanting to try hair coloring, she colored my hair for only 300 php! NEAAATT! ^^., It's an ash brown shade, and looks pretty natural. I liked it. My hair is a little bit curly (she curled my hair after coloring it, because the dye she used I think has a chemical that can used to curl my hair a little, to make it flowy,and yeah, curly/wavy) and I really really like my  hair. 

I loved how my hair turned out after a few months (when it was still 

permed), but at first, it was really really curly, that I didn't like it na (I looked Goldilocks at that time). I also discovered, that my hair is better when I don't use hair spray, or mousse, so I decided not to use any styling products. and it got better.

I am actually blessed with a pretty hair, silky, soft hair. Though I tend to have frizzy hair because my hair is super thin, it gets very wavy and unmanageable. And I always comb my hair because of that dilemma, but I always lose it! more than 10 combs of Paganini I think! or more!  (that's why I had it permed, less hassle). But now, I love my hair without using expensive products!! HOW? Here it is! :)

my FAVORITE. latest addiciton! oh my my.. :)

I actually use these for only once a month. 1 hair mask a month. lols. But I recommend you guys to use hair mask 2-3 a week.

vitress, human nature, citrus shine mist

These are the products I use. They are just ordinary products, and I think they work great. :)

Stay tune for part 2! >:D<

First Attempt on Falsies!

As I have said last time, I bought these false eyelashes for only 100.00 php (8 pairs)! It was the first time I saw falsies priced at a fair value, or even lower than the usual market value for these. I was intrigue by that, knowing that I am not blessed with beautiful and awesome lashes, I bought 2 from Say . Check her FB page for more info. She has 11 diff sets for the lashes. ^^ As I have said on my previous post, I met up with Ms. Say, and I know she is super busy and I was so makulit. :)) ., We were supposed to meet last last week, but because of the heavy rain, we postponed it for the 1st, and 2nd time. :p ., I am not in a hurry kasi I will be using it naman just for fun. So yun. HAHA. Thank You Miss Say (she is from UST, and I am from UST[before I shifted]. huraaay!. haha. ). :D

Lashes by SAY. (I now pronounce it as the BRAND NAME.haha lols )

I bought the Roseanne and LeJannie Lashes (since the packaged was labeled in diff language, Say named them for order/transaction purposes, I guess?). Roseanne is shorter and thicker compared with LeJannie that has thinner and longer strands. I like them both. But I am not used to wearing lashes everyday. =p ., They are made of plastic, I think the material is commonly used naman to all lashes? ., I want to try the Ardell lashes, but they are expensive for my taste. :)) I do not know how to re-use lashes so I threw it away after my first attempt. lols

Here is my attempt. I also used a lash glue from Hortaleza which was used during my 18th birthday (1 year and 3 months ago.lol ) :)) The upper part was already dry! I had to pull the dried/tacky glue to use the remaining. haha. I will buy lash glue next time. I need to buy one that is worth the money! >:D

with my papa B. haha. waiting for the valet. gonna watch Captain America! ^^

I am not expert in tight lining my upper waterline. haha. But it looks natural naman, kahit papano. ;p

oh my flat nose. :)))

Hope You like it! :)

Revlon ColorStay Soft and Smooth Lipcolor?

One Saturday morning, my mom showed me her Revlon Nail Polish and Lipstick that she got from her patient. I was not surprised when she showed me the nail polish because I am all aware of the product launch from other bloggers. But when I asked her what lipstick did she get, my eyes got bigger because of this.

I tried googling (lols) this but I think it is not that popular. I saw the Revlon website but the shade I got is not indicated in their product line. SO I am not sure, but it says under the label that it is ColorStay LipColor in 205 Blissful Honey. It is an shimmery orange/coral color with gold glits (tiny shimmery glits. :)) ) that can be applied sheer or bold. Ano daw? haha.

Shade: 205 Blissful Honey

Yeah. I know, Oily face. :| just got home.okay?? lols :))

It is pigmented, and looks natural on my lips. I can wear this on a daily basis. ^^
I do not know how much it is, because I am not even sure if this is available locally. I was just amazed, because I am not aware that there is a ColorStay Collection for Lip colors. :D

I miss blogging

huhuhuhu. I miss writing. I am not feeling well ., as I am writing this short update, I am coughing (very itchy bec of sore throat) while listening to my prof for our class. hihi. T.T

I have been very busy also, I myself do not know what to write in my blog these past few days. Not enough inspiration-slash-motivation I guess? ., What do you want me to write? What do you want to know? Because I am afraid that my writings are not good enough to be read by other people. Ohwweeelllllllll. my cough is just getting worse and worse. -.-

g2g. will try to figure out what I want to do. AND I REALLY NEED TO STUDY VERY HARD
