MAC Bronze Eyeshadow


I got this MAC Bronze eyeshadow by accident. I forget to check the color at the store and when I got home I found out that its not Satin Taupe but Bronze instead. Thinking of sending it back but I just tried it anyways and I really like it. I've been using it for my everyday look.
Here I used:
MAC Bronze e/s (crease and outer V corners)
Victoria's Secret Bakes Mineral e/s In Secluded Lagoon (lids and brow highlights)
MAC False Lashes Mascara
MAC Eye Brow in Lingering

Imeldarific!


My 115 pairs of shoes and counting... How did this happen?

After the Edsa Revolution way back in 1996,after Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos fled the Philippines my dad took us to Malacanang Palace which was opened for public viewing of the Marcos ill gotten wealth from Filipino people. I was mesmerized by Imelda Marcos' thousands of beautiful shoes, the one pair I really liked was her Disco shoes with diamonds on them and they sparkled when the light hit them. But I was wondering "how could one person owns so many shoes?" I was 11 years old and had only 3 pairs of shoes including my black Haruta school shoes, Mighty Kid tennis shoes and my jelly sandals. Today I know the answer.

When I started working in Laguna, my friends and I had the habit of going to Shoe Mart Mall on their 3 day sale event. It helped to built up my collection of Janeo, Rustie Lopez, Gibi, Figlia, etc. (Manila brand) shoes. Some trips were to Marikina City regarded as the Shoes Capital of the Philippines . We spent the whole day going gaga for shoe shopping in Liliw, Laguna. Before I left Manila in 2004 I had 65 pairs of shoes. I gave away 60 pairs to my friends and family.
I got a lot of criticism from my friends and kids about my shoes. I rationalized my obsession with beautiful shoes. I keep telling them that I don’t have any vices, I don’t gamble and I only like to collect nice shoes! There were times that I would rather buy shoes than eat!!

When I die I want to be buried with all my shoes and my Louis Vuitton and Gucci hand bags!!

Maybelline Foundies



After work I passed by King Soopers to get some fruits. And of course I have to see what’s on sale on the makeup section. Fortunately there is 40% off on Maybelline products. I get the Instant Age Rewind and the new Dream Liquid Mousse which I find awesome for everyday use. I’ve been using the MAC Fix Studio for awhile and seems like I get tired of it. I also have my Dior Forever but I only use it for special occasion. So for cheap alternatives I hope this 2 foundation I’ve got will do the work for my face.



Dream Liquid Mousse is an air-whipped formula provides skin perfecting coverage. Smooth, 100% poreless finish with natural luminosity . Air-brushed natural perfection. Blends effortlessly for a flawless, air-brushed finish. But it don’t have SPF on it. I get mine in Pure Beige.



Instant Age Rewind has creamy formula with revitalizing avocado helps renew suppleness for firmer, younger-looking skin. Instant hydration lasts all day. Instant Radiance: Formula with ultra-fine micro-pearls helps brighten skin for luminous, radiant coverage. SPF 18 protects skin and prevents new signs of aging. I like this better coz I live here in Colorado where it is very dry but sunny in most time. I get mine in Sandy Beige (Medium 1).
