Goodbye, my little Princess.. =(
The word Goodbye... Why is it so hard to say it out loud?
If you're one of those who read my recent posts on GT, then you'll have an idea on who I'm referring to at this point.
I'm referring to my baby, my Coastal Scents Pink Kabuki brush. I lost her during our Christmas party at A.Venue on Makati Avenue last December 13, 2008. I guess it fell out of my glittery, metallic pink pouch. I brought her with me because it matches the color of my pouch. I only realized that she was missing when I washed my brushes on Sunday morning. So tragic and sad...
I will definitely get a replacement for her, but not now.
Goodbye baby. I hope you're doin' okay wherever you're at right now. Mommy will always love you. sniff.
Waxing: Is it worth the pain?
Okay, so I was searching thru Ebay.ph when I came across this product called Strip It All Natural Ready to Use Cold Hair Wax Remover (whew, that was a mouthful!). It caught my attention because of two things: One,because it's made out of natural ingredients, and two, because it's a bit cheaper compared to Epillin, which is locally available at Watsons and other drugstore outlets. I have been reading bits of info on waxing at GT and on the Internet and since then I became very interested with it because I was into shaving from the day I found out on what a razor can do. So I purchased the 150g trial tub of the said product and tried it on my underarms and on the hair growing on top of my fingers. Here is what I can say about it.
Product Description:
Strip Tease wax comes ready to use. No heating, no mixing, no irritating smell…no mess. It is made from all natural ingredients so it is safe to use for your entire body including sensitive areas such as face and bikini lines. With waxing, hair takes longer time to regrow because hair is removed from the roots. Waxing slowly reduces the growth of hair, so the more often you wax; hair regrowth will appear much sparser, softer and finer textured.
Waxing exfoliates the skin while removing hair; dead skin cells and impurities are removed, thus leaving skin soft, smooth and clean. Strip Tease wax is completely water-soluble, so it rinses away instantly with water.
The best part about being able to wax yourself is that you can do it in the comfort of your own home; and if you’re prone to shaving in times of emergency, once you learn how to wax yourself you will not have to touch a razor ever again! So start right now and discover the beauty of waxing with Strip Tease wax. Satisfaction guaranteed!
Kit contents: 350g Strip Tease wax
15 pcs. reusable strips
wooden spatula
instruction leaflet
Available in 2 sizes: 150g - P160.00
350g - P295.00
Pros:
- It's cold wax, therefore, there's no heating required, unlike Epillin.
- It comes with a spatula and cloth strips that you could use to put on wax and to take out hair from wherever you wanna remove it.
- It takes out hair just as good as Epillin would.
- It is made out of natural ingredients, hence there are less chances of getting skin irritations after.
- It only costs Php 160.00 (approx $3.34) for a 150g tub which will last you for quite a long period of time, if will be used on small areas.
Cons:
- It is not available at drugstores like Watsons or Mercury Drug. I purchased mine at Ebay, and I think you could see this being sold at Bazaars only.
- Since it's made out of honey and brown sugar, it attracts ants, so be careful with storage.
- If you're a newbie with waxing (just like me), it may take some time before you get used to the pain of pulling hair from within. So taking an Advil or any brand of Mefenamic Acid 30 to 45mins before waxing may be a very important tool for you, especially if you have a very low threshold for pain.
Will I repurchase?
Yes, until the day comes when I learn to make my very own homemade wax. ^_^

A gift from my Boss..
To live up to the Christmas spirit, we decided to have an exchange of gifts amongst ourselves (the officers of the Company) and to spice things up, we decided to post a wishlist. For me, I decided to ask for a Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara in Black. I have seen reviews on it on YouTube and I decided that it'll be a very nice gift for Christmas. It turned out that it was my boss who got my name and on December 31st, just before I left for our New Year break, this is what I got from him..
Personal Rating: 4 out of 5 stars for packaging and quality
Will I purchase one for myself once it's all used up? Definitely, this is one of the best mascaras that I have tried in my entire life! It definitely gave volume and length to my forever dull lashes. ^_^
Yeah, it's been awhile..
Yeah, I know. Im guilty and Im really sorry for not being able to put up something for the past couple of weeks or so. Aside from the tons of workload that I have to deal with, I lost Internet connection at home which made me computer illiterate during those days,lol (blame PLDT for cutting down wires by mistake near our place approximately 3 days before Christmas...grrr). Anyway, I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays with their loved ones and dear friends. I did make the most out of it with my family and some of my friends and officemates. I did shop around for some stuff during the holidays and got some gifts as well. I'll post the pics once I get hold of my flash disk (which I let my officemate borrow so he could give me copies of pics during our teambuilding cum team drinking, hehehe. I'll be posting pics of my recent purchases soon, but for now...
