Online Shopping Experience plus Beauty Haul

And yet again another beauty haul.
But this is not just another beauty haul 'coz I'm sharing a not-so-good experience from online shopping.
This is the first-time I tried doing a pre-order for an imported product.
This is also the first-time I received a wrong product. ='(

Makeup Workshop for Stage Performers at DLSU-D

I recently facilitated DLSU-D Chorale's Makeup Workshop attended by their trainees and members.
Every 1st semester of the school year, the Performing Arts Group recruit trainees to be part of each of the organizations. I was an active member and officer of the DLSU-D Chorale. I learned lots of amazing things because we were given the opportunity to take up free workshops for different topics. After I graduated, I started teaching Makeup for the past 3 batches of new trainees.

Makeup Workshop OOTD + NOTD

Hello my lovely readers! Just got home from an out of town trip and I'm back to blogging! My family went to visit my brother at Nueva Ecija who's busy preparing for his upcoming wedding in 2 weeks. Sooo excited for that!  =)
But today, I'll be sharing with you my first ever outfit post. 
Last Saturday, I went back to my school to facilitate a Makeup Workshop for the new trainees of my university organization DLSU-D Chorale. I've been doing this workshop and teaching the new breed of talents since the past 3 years. 
This time, like what I did with my previous makeup look, I went out of my comfort zone and tried wearing a dress. I'm always a laid-back type of person. I wear shirts and jeans and slippers all the time so I'm not sure if I pulled it off. My friends were teasing me when they saw me. Haha! I was just trying a new look. So, enough blabbering and let's see the things I wore...haha!

Attempt on Colors

WARNING: Too much vanity...

Two nights ago when I was home alone, I posted a makeup-less photo of myself on my personal FB account. I was feeling kinda good about my skin that time though I know it's not perfect. It's more about loving your own skin and beauty. Hehe!
Someone asked why some girls can't survive going out without makeup on. I think, some do it because they want to feel more beautiful. Others do it to let out their inner creativity. And this is what I did...

That day, I also had a makeup client at home and so my things were set up. The night was passing by and I was itching to finally do makeup on myself that's something different. I also tried re-discovered products from my collection and used them on this look.

Not that I'm afraid of colors...I'm just often naturally picking more neutral colors for an eye makeup. With this look, I tried going out of my comfort zone, so let me know what you think of this... ;)

Anyways, read more if you want to see the transformation and some extra photos. ;)

Glam Debutante - Tammy

Last Saturday, after coming from Caleruega and Tagaytay for a wedding gig (blog entry here), I rushed through the pouring rain and went to Muntinlupa for a debut. Talk about major road trip! Haha!
If you have been reading my blog, I've shared with you in previous posts the Hello Kitty Overload Pre-debut shoot that I did with my beautiful debutante, Tammy. If you haven't seen that, click here and here. ;)
Well, the day has finally come and now I'm sharing with you my debutante's transformation into a young beautiful lady ready to conquer the world.
 To achieve that more appealing look, instead of going for neutrals, I opted to give Tammy purple smokey eyes. It sure did emphasize her naturally beautiful eyes.
Subtle glowing pink blush for the cheeks and nude pink lips to complete the Barbie-esque inspired makeup.

Radiant Bride - Melissa

I apologize for being MIA the past week. I've been really busy with work. And also, the past days filled with heavy rainfall and flooding was quite devastating. Though my area wasn't affected, thank heavens, I've still been really worried by the ones who were victims of the calamity. That's besides the fact that we had a terrible internet connection the whole time it was raining hard. Let's just all hope, pray hard and extend help as much as we can, to those who are now in most need.
Today is a brighter day. And so I wanted to share with you another bridal makeover that I was again privileged to do.
Preps at Royale Tagaytay at 4am last Saturday =)
We had to come there the night before since they were having a morning wedding at Caleruega.

Tammy's Pre-Debut Shoot Part 2


Have you seen my Hello Kitty themed Pre-Debut shoot that I posted a few weeks back? Well if you haven't, you can CLICK HERE. :)
Last Saturday, we did part 2 of the shoot as Tammy told me the first set didn't come out so well (photog's fault. sad.). I'm not sure what happened, I haven't seen photo outputs from that except those that I took myself.
I pretty much did the same makeup or continuity... We did the hair differently though.
I did big loose curls on her. She said she liked it better this time. The last set was kind of girly and young. This time it looks a little matured and feminine. :)

I know I promised to post this a day after the giveaway closes but please forgive my extremely bad and unstable internet connection. It's probably because of the weather too.

Three weeks ago, I opened my first ever blog giveaway. I honestly never expected to receive such an overwhelming response. There were total 2015 entries, but I had to remove a few that didn't follow directions just to be fair. >.<

I also had to verify all the entries' validity. And so...

After much waiting, the 10 LUCKY WINNERS are... Drum roll please...
