For the love of GOLD!

I'm actually writing this post just to let you guys know i'm still here. I've just been so busy with a recent out-of-town event and when i got back i need to manage orders for the current US Preorders on my online shop (SumWear Co.). So busy, but hey, i'm not complaining. I love what i do.

Behold, all is Gold.

I just wanted to post a lucky shot i got when i was trying to get a good picture for my Current Beauty Favorites post. While i was putting all the scattered makeups back to my kit, i managed to spot on some items that are gold-lustered, and thought of taking them all and giving them a Victoria Secret Girls group shot! Cause all things made in gold are just plain FABULOUS, right?

Current Beauty Favorites Questionnaire

This actually is from my friends blog (check her out: Makeup Et Cetera), but i tweaked it a little bit. Since It's really hard for me to think of my favorites right now, too many, too overwhelming. And my mind definitely will shutdown if i think of all the makeups i love! 

So instead of making a list of: Beauty Favorites Questionnaire, i opted for a Current Beauty Favorites instead. The ones i am using right now, and in the top drawers of my vanity kit.

The Ultimate Gold Lipstick - YSL Rouge Volupte Silky Sensual Radiant #9

FIRST IMPRESSION:

I cannot explain how thrilled i am to see the box of Sephora which i know contains this little pretty lipstick!

I have come across YSL Lipstick every month, on every package i import from the US, since my clients are regular users and some, collectors of this gorge lipstick. So i'm quite familiar with the feel and the smell, since i quality check each and every lipstick before sending them out.

So i told myself, why not give it a try? After all, i've been meaning to buy a new lipstick either than my usual MAC tubes.

So when another regular customer ordered one, i ordered my first one along with her order. 

I was really debating with myself between #9 Caress Pink or #29 Opera Rose.
But because i am a sucker for pink nude lippies, i opted for the #9 Caress Pink which is described as muted raspberry pink.

The other one is too pink for my taste.

Tarte: The Tarte Of Giving 8-pcs Lipsurgence

It's been actually days that i was contemplating of writing a review on my holiday purchases, including this Tarte: Tarte of Giving 8-pcs. Lipsurgence Holiday Limited Edition.  But the Holiday Laziness got me, and yeah, 1 week just went by! But here i am, trying my best to get out of my couch, since the Holidays are over! (screams: NoooooOOO!)

The best brow pencil I've ever had: Anastasia Beverly Hills (Medium-Ash)

QUICK INFO:

Anastasia Beverly Hills

Hallelujah! Finally found the BEST (so far) Eyebrow Pencil that works great on my brows and takes just a few minutes to apply! Since i started applying eyebrows, around 2 years ago, I've been introduce to a drugstore brow powder brand, so ever since I've been a user of brow powder. Seeing some of my friends going overboard on using a brow pencil, they look liked 'drawn' and very much 'unnatural' for at least my preference. Scary actually. Bought a few more eyebrow powder on different brands like my recent purchase, Sigma Brow Powder Duo in Auburn. It's nice nonetheless, but i feel that applying it takes a LOT of time and effort. For a mom of a cute little girl like me, i need to do my makeup fast, since I prepare lotsa stuffs when we go out. So it will be very very convenient if i can get my eyebrows done in just a matter of minutes, rather than taking 48 years (joke!) making them look good and natural. Plus the need of having a brow brush at all times to apply a powder is another hassle, specially when you are travelling. Not that it's heavy, but you know what i mean. It can be a big help if you can just bring one tool for your brows.
