It's banned books week this week, and the week is almost ending but that doesn't mean the quest for hunting, reading and enjoying banned books will end on Saturday! I find it weird how books can be banned. To quote my personal hero, Kurt Vonnegut.. Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae.Word, son. And because I'm running out of...
Cashcashpinoy is not handling my request for refund very well. They've had the gall to: Block me from their Facebook page. Very classy. Blatantly lying to me about the sessions: I called Dermclinic again and the receptionist told me that their IPL treatment is not a per-shot basis, but a per session basis with shots per session reaching up to 60 shots. This is consistent with what their dermatologist told me last Monday so basically, Terry from...
MissKatV in partnership with StyleQuarter are giving away free things! I personally want the Love Minerals Pressed Blush (coz blushers are awesome) and the Nyx Pencil Eyeliner.

Love Minerals Pressed Foundation (Sand Dollar) 4. Human Nature Balancing Facial Wash SET 2: 1. Lorac Eyeshadow...
The CashCashPinoy-Dermclinic Promo is misleading.Click photo for the full details of the deal.More trickery at their Facebook page. Their deal information explicitly stated that for P595, you will be getting P3500 worth of service, which meant an 83% worth of savings. This "discount" is the bait that made people buy more than 1,900 vouchers to avail of their promo. I bought 7 vouchers myself, which amounted to Php4.1k. I set an appointment...
The Philippines has earned the distinction of celebrating the world's longest Christmas season*. We're all Christmas junkies by heart and the start of the -ber months starts a lot of people's countdown to the holiday merry-making. To celebrate the start of the -ber months and the early Christmas season (as well as few other celebrations**), Kikaysimaria and BB Cream Addict are holding a pre-holiday Giveaway Contest. The prizes are crazy awesome...
I was going for a Zooey D. look but oh well. This looks nice! :) I bought a Nichido bright pink lipstick (Sweet Pea) too and it looks awesome! Just the right bright pink lipstick I was looking for. It's kinda drying though, but it was only for Php188 and the color pay-off was nice so I'm not complaining much. :) David's Salon has always been my go-to salon when I can't decide where to go. I don't really go to salons for haircuts (I always get...
HelloGiggles, one of my favorite female-centric sites, always produces great content. I read almost everything the writers from the site post and this particular one by Kate Harmer is a favorite. In Turnin' Thirty: Notes from My Twenties, Kate talks about being comfortable and being happy about turning thirty and the lessons she learned the past few years. It's a bit long so I'm summarizing the article for anyone who has ADD and focus on the stuff...
InStyle presents 5 beauty products that flatter everyone. Here's the round-up and some products available locally for everyone to play with. I painstakingly searched for local products, their prices and some reviews so you don't have to. :P 1. Gold and Purple Eye Shadow Gold on inner corners brightens all eyes, while purple's broad appeal is that it's not too cool or too warm.

So.. I was looking for nude lipsticks when I stumbled on this blog which loosely reviewed looks of Filipino celebrities during the recently concluded Star Magic Ball. I don't really know every one of these celebrities since I don't have time to follow local shows but .. well, anyway. While I don't really agree with all of the comments in Vanity Clinic, I have to say that this Lovi Poe girl really does look tired. She should fire her make-up artist....

I'm definitely getting a lipliner, a waterproof mascara and a cream blush. And maybe some nail polish too so the boyfriend can practice painting my nails. ...
