NYX PARIS and LOUISIANA: Quick Product Overview

Online reviews and forums helped me a lot when choosing a lipstick shade specially for products exclusively available over the net. And since i have purchased some lipsticks online, i would also like to give back a little and do a mini review or swatching of the product. So here it is..

As I've said in my earlier post, I've been going gaga over lipsticks. And As promised, i will be doing a quick swatching/opinion writing/review of some of the lipsticks i have..

**P.S. I'm not really good at describing colors, so also check out the pictures for your reference.. =)

First stop are my NYX round lippies, LOUISIANA and PARIS:

NYX Lipsticks are velvety lipstick formulated with mineral oils provides moisturizing benefits and rich colors. NYX’s top selling lipstick, the Round Lipstick offers long-lasting, non-smudging color.


They have wide variety of colors from nude lipsticks to deep bold red lipsticks to pink, orange and black. And for something that is available online the range of colors can be quite overwhelming. And also, choosing colors base on their swatches online can be quite confusing and i can say unreliable. So researching online, really is a BIG PLUS factor when choosing a shade. 

My First PIECE from FOREVER 21. YAY!..

I saw,read and heard so many good stuffs from forever 21. But i never got the chance to checked out their stores. I have some pieces from forever 21 but they're from jurassic ages ago. I didn't even remember what pieces they were and what they looked like, but i know i have some. haha

So yesterday, i took advantage of the sale, and boy! The store although they were spacey and huge, it was all filled with numerous number of people looking for great finds. I didn't waste any second and started for my own bargain hunting. I searched from racks to racks of their clothings, accessories, bags and shoes. But luck isn't crossing my path for at least the first 20 minutes. I'm really the type of person who's having trouble with finding unique and fab pieces for everytime i see something that i really like, it's price isn't really a good deal and it would still cost a bit pricey compared to it's normal price.

After i think, 20minutes my journey for looking for  fab pieces starts to shoot up. I found some clothes that were 50% cheaper than they're original price and voila! Clothes at last! But to my disappointment, when i started fitting all the clothes i found, it's either they were the only piece left or there weren't available sizes fitted for me. Thus, leaving me with only 1 piece of top left from my 45mins of bargain hunting... =(

To give you an idea of how many people were trying their luck on finding great deals, here are some of the photos... =)

All lined up! People were lining up at the cashier to pay for their  fab finds.

Note to Future Self 1

Dearest Future Patty,

Yesterday, you spent your whole afternoon at the mall with your family. As usual, you went from store-to-store looking for something unuseful to buy. It was a mall wide sale, so you refuse to go home empty handed. You made your mom buy infinite numbers of junks and made her spent thousands of money for your good-for-nothing clothes. After getting what you want, you ended up with your usual bitchy tantrums. I hope someday when we meet, you already overcome your irritating tantrums, your selfishness, your inconsiderate attitude, your fears and your worries. I hope you turn out to be way better than me. And indeed the BEST version of me..

Until then...

love,

Present PATTY... =))

Fun with Lippies

I'm not really a make-up addict. As a matter of fact, a glide of chapstick and a dab of  powder and i'm good to go. I used to accused myself of vanity whenever i retouch by looking myself in a pressed powder mirror. And whenever my friends puts up make-up in front of me, i asked why are they using such and for what. If knowledge about make-up is graded, i'd probably get a failing mark or worse, i'd be kicked-out of barbie world. haha.

Everything had changed since a month ago. In an instant, i was obssessed with looking up for make-up particularly lipsticks. Every chance i get when going to the mall, i never missed a chance of sneaking at the beauty section and swatching every cute pink lipstick i see. I am going gaga over PINK lipstick. Maybe it's because of all the make-ups, i consider the lipstick as the least fatal one when in comes to vanity. You don't need to have skills or expertise to apply lipstick. And in an instant, your face will be all glammed up. And for that reason, in just a span of 1 month, i have come up with these number of lipstick.

Here are some of my precious lipstick.

From L-R: avon moisture rich l/s, ever bilena matte l/s, nyx RLS in narcissus, louissiana and paris,
avon lipsticks in champagne and pink, nichido matte lipstick

 While, the others are lying and hiding in pockets of my bags. haha. Reviews about each lipsticks will follow. =).. Ciao for now!

love,

PROLOGUE. =)

In as much as i wanted to post something about my frustrations and depressions, I CAN'T and moreover, I DON'T WANT to. If i keep on uttering about my life's mishaps, this whole blog may not be enough. haha. and besides, "QUOTA na ko 'teh sa mga reklamo at problema." =) So instead, i'll try to write about something quite optimistic. And what better way to share my private thoughts than to broadcast them over the net (as quoted from easy A movie =))??...

Well, i'll start by stating some brief facts about WHAT this page is all about. This page is all about partially fulfilling my dreams and frustrations - of becoming a model, a photographer and of course, a BLOGGER. i'll be posting photos of me, taken by me (or sometimes, others) and blogs about everything under the sun (or roof. =)) and moreover, this page is my way of distressing and detoxifying negativities i have in my life. Feel free to take a look around my site and laugh, have fun and enjoy the little things in life. LIFE's what you make it so let's all CHILL and leave all negative vibes aside.

again, WELCOME. =))


love,
