All-in-One!




It has been tested by time since the 1900's. The term cold cream refers to how it's supposed to make you feel after applying it. It's very essential for traveling since it can be used as your night cream at the same time a makeup remover. With a cotton pad, it swipes all the makeup gunk you had for the day and it doesn't even harm your eyes! After washing your face with cleanser, this is best to apply right before bedtime. I wouldn't recommend this product as a day moisturizer as it doesn't have SPF. But if you're just staying in for the day, just put it all over your face and it will dry eventually. 

So tell me, what's your go-to moisturizer or makeup remover? :)

Removing Nail Polish

Taking care of your nails means removing the polish regularly, too. I use a cheaper one as long as it has less acetone content and won't leave a white film after it has dried. The Etude House Fresh Nailwash Remover very much does the job. It has a sweet-smelling scent, does not dry the nails and has a safety dispenser to prevent spills. I only need two pieces of cotton pads for both hands and I'm good to go!


By the way, I used to stock up on Bobbie Nail Polish Remover (green), but then it stained on my fingers recently and it took time for me to wipe it off my skin. :(

Sunscreen Protection



Wake up, sleepyhead! It’s time to fix your beauty regimen before you start the day. After washing your face with your fave cleanser and before putting any make-up on, you should always put sunscreen! You don’t even need to use your moisturizer, primer or a base of some sort. Sunblock like Belo Essentials Sun Expert SPF 40 shields your face from the sun’s deadly rays. Even if it’s cloudy or rainy outside, it is still a must to put it on since sunscreen will help you from early signs of skin aging. Look for products that are unscented and with SPF of 30 or higher to block your face from UVA and UVB rays.

Best Deodorant Of All Time

If you have underarm problems like bumps or discoloration, first thing to do is replace your deodorant. Use an unscented one like Dove (alcohol-free!) to avoid irritation and it won’t cause allergies, especially for sensitive skin. Try not to use the spray variant since it has more chemicals that might damage your skin and it’s also harmful to the environment.

How To Put Fake Eyelashes



It’s time for me to share my favorite falsies with you! I feel like every girl should have their go-to lashes whenever there’s no time to fix up but there’s still a need to make yourself look better. For the fake lashes, I prefer the brand, Nichido (costs P198-240). They are mostly reusable and can even be used while swimming (If you really must)! Before putting it on, cut both lashes according to the length of your eyes. You don’t want to be looking like a drag or feeling itchy afterwards. You need a good lash glue too. 


I use Lash Grip in Dark. There’s three things you need to remember, though. First is the color, it has to be dark or black after it has dried. Wait for a few seconds before gluing it on to your lash line. And lastly, put more glue on both ends of each falsies so it will stick better and last with you all day. Practice makes perfect!
P.S. Remove the dried glue from both lashes every time you need to use them again. :)
