Finally, part 3 of my Smokey Eye Series is here! Had time to waste last night and here's what I came up with. It's just a deep purple smokey eye with a touch of coral to make it more fun. It actually kind of looks like plum LOL.

I know that this is really late, but just wanted to share with you the stuff that I've purchased last month. I've started my so called makeup ban since July, so you'll probably notice that there are no makeup included in this haul.

This wasn't planned at all, I just noticed that I had pink on my nails and I also wore a bright pink lip for today's look. So I just thought this would be interesting to share.

This is the first ever product I've tried from MAC, and I've got nothing else to say but good things about it.

My nails haven't been painted for about 3 weeks now and I just missed playing with my nail polishes, so I decided to glam up my nails today.


When I look at this, it kinda gives that Rockstar feel to it, thus the title..hehe It was really messy to apply since the red and black polish are kind of hard to clean up since they stain a bit. I'm just glad it turned out looking somewhat neat.



until next time.

So here's the thing, I've been using the Etude House Fresh Nailwash Safe Nail Color Remover for a while now and I've been loving it so far, but I had to try out the Face Shop Lovely ME:EX Nail Polish Remover when I read Nikki's (askmewhats) review about it. So, I decided to compare the two.



Here's a quick review on the Etude House Fresh Nailwash Safe Nail Color Remover
- inexpensive, retails at Php 98.00
- this pink variant smells really good
- doesn't leave white casts
- doesn't make my nails dry
- removes nail polish effectively


Here's a quick review on The Face Shop Lovely ME:EX Nail Polish Remover

- inexpensive, retails at Php 95.00
- has a fruity scent like strawberry
- doesn't leave white casts
- doesn't make my nails dry
- removes nail polish effectively
- The Face Shop nail polish remover is slightly cheaper than the Etude House Nailwash
- both really smells good but the The Face Shop smells much sweeter
- both comes in a 100 ml bottle
- both has a cute Pink packaging
- the lid on both removers has small holes but The Face Shop one has a smaller diameter which mean less spillage
- the Etude House remover comes in a regular twist cap while The Face Shop comes in a childproof cap which you need to press down and twist counter clockwise to open.
- both does a good job of removing nail polish easily
- both does not leave white casts after using
- both does not leave my nails dry but the Etude House remover feels much more moisturizing

My Verdict, although I find that the Face Shop nail polish remover has better packaging, I like the Etude House nail polish remover better because of the milky-ish formula it has which leaves my nails moisturized.

I would definitely recommend both nail polish removers since they both have good quality, but I'd prefer to repurchase the Etude House nail polish remover.  It's really just a matter of preference. :D

Till next time.

This is part 2 of the Smokey Look Series I mentioned before on the previous look I created, the Green Smokey Eye which you can also check out HERE.  This time I made it a little more dramatic and kind of a sexy look with big curly hair.

I know that I don't really make posts about shoes, but I just had to share this with you ladies. I found this 4 inch wedge sandals while I was browsing through the size 10 isle at Payless Shoe Source (Ayala Center Cebu). The retail price was Php 1,250.00 and I was lucky enough to know that particular wedge was on sale for Php 699.00 only. So I quickly tried it on and paid for it without second thoughts. :D



This is my first ever 4-inch wedge! If you've read from my older post, I mentioned that I'm such a big fan of FLATS and I have several pairs of them. When I tried on that wedge, I honestly thought it would hurt like hell since it is 4 inches in height, but it surprised me when I actually felt comfortable wearing it. So, I'm quite happy with this pair of wedge sandals by FIONI.

This is it for now.

Cheerios!
