My Look for the Week ;)

This week was the most stressful week that I ever had! I am like 2 months late for my monthly report, my workload doubled and I had so many stuff to think about. 



Thank goodness I had few minutes of free time to take a 'rest' in our pantry. And I am really lovin' the window there. :)

REVIEW: VANEDO BEAUTY FRIENDS MASK ~ SNAIL

I am not a fan of masks because the thought of putting the mask on for 20 minutes (lying there, doing nothing....) makes me feel bored already. I am quite impatient. I've actually tried using masks but aside from waiting for 15-20 minutes, those masks did not do anything to improve my face :(
So when I got some masks,which are actually freebies from Han Ryu, it took me two months to try them.


But after trying this, I might have a different perspective when it comes to facial masks. ;) 

Here is my review for Vanedo Beauty Friends Mask ~ SNAIL




***************************************************************************

THE PRODUCT:

- This is a facial mask ~ and this is a Korean facial care product. 
- VANEDO BEAUTY FRIENDS MASKS comes in 25 types/kinds/variant. (This is a LOT!! )
- Each mask comes in 23g essence and 2g mask sheet.



- This is the one that I've tried:

Please click the photo to enlarge. 

- This is #16 ~SNAIL (yes! and have you heard that snail cream is now popular in Korea?! Snail Cream is definitely on my list!!
- For all SKIN TYPES.

REVIEW: NATURE REPUBLIC STAIN GIRL'S TINT - 3 -

Argh! I made a promise to myself to make at least 2 reviews in a week but unfortunately I can't. :( I have a lot of stuff to do (and 99.9% of it is work-related. Argh!!) 




Aside from my BB creams, I love lipsticks, lip colors and lip stains. My addiction strikes again!   I haven't tried any lip stains aside from Maybelline, Revlon and TonyMoly. So when I saw this on sale I immediately grabbed it :) 


This is my review on Nature Republic Stain Girl's Tint - #3


*********************************************

THE PRODUCT
- This is a lip stain from Nature Republic. 
Nature Republic Stain Girl's Tint - #3

REVIEW: SKIN79 THE ORIENTAL GOLD PLUS BB CREAM

I am back! :) 

I cannot hold back my excitement! Finally, I am already done editing my photos for this review. (Actually, the editing of the photos is the one slowing me down in writing a blog. Hope I'll get used to it soon ^_^)

Here is my review on Skin79 The Oriental Gold Plus BB Cream. 



*****************************************************
WARNING: AGAIN, I love taking photos (although I am not a photographer and I do not have a keen eye for perfection that most photography enthusiasts are looking for). This review contains a lot of images and it may take some time for the photos to load. This review has a LOT OF PICTURES so that I can show you how good/bad the product is.

I bought this BB cream last week (check this: http://theunemployedfish.blogspot.com/2012/10/upcoming-reviews-skin-79-oriental-gold.html#.UIJHVm-R-So)

MY LOVE AFFAIR WITH SWIMSUITS

I love swimsuits! I love bikinis!
;)
I don't know how I got obsessed with them but 2 years ago.. my compulsion with bikinis / swimwear started. (Good thing I got over with it) 

I still love collecting them though. 


Here are some of my favorites. 



These are my BANDEAUS! I am not a fan of this swimsuit design (because it does not flatter my figure) but I LOVE THEM ;) 





- Here are my all-time favorite string bikinis. These are the 'abused and used' because they are just comfortable and these are what I call the 'safe ones'. These do not 'slip' and they stay in place whether you swim or just roam around the beach or resort. 





-These are what I call the "conservative" ones. These are 'not too skimpy' compared to the string bikinis that I have above. These also do not show 'too much' cleavage. These are just plain cute. ^_^ 




-These are my favorite bottoms. These are comfortable bottoms and they just match any bikini top I have. :) 




-And here are my favorite pairs! Yehey! I usually do not wear pairs because I prefer wearing  pairs with daisy dukes or short 'shorts'. 



-This one is a personal favorite. I love this because it looks 'girly' but not too much. I love the color combination too. 
This one reminds me of Avril Lavigne. 


- Another personal favorite. This is a Speedo 2-piece swimwear. I love this because this it does not have a sporty look but the quality is super duper A-OK (i dunno if the expression I used is appropriate) 
-It has a 'non-slip' /rubber-like feature on the straps and the bottom to make sure that the whole swimwear does not slip all through out your activities :) 



- I also fell in love with HIGHWAIST bikinis. I fell inlove with this PIN-Up girl style. 
My nautical pin-up style high-waist bikini. 









My skin-tone highwaist bikini. :) 



- And other 'still-inside-the-packaging' , unused high-waisted bikinis :) 




Love! love! I just wish I had the time to go out and enjoy the sun and beach.

UPCOMING REVIEWS: SKIN 79 THE ORIENTAL GOLD BB CREAM PLUS, ECORRE ARTIST BB CREAM AND NATURE REPUBLIC STAIN GIRL'S TINT



Happy Monday!
Yes, it is indeed a happy Monday. 
Although I had a ton of things to do at work, I am still happy to get home and enjoy my bed. :) 



- Online shopping strikes again when I got this package today. Inside are my orders from my favorite online store, Han Ryu
- I just love her ;) 






 - I ordered only three items from her but I got a lot! 
I love Ms. Grace more when I opened the package!!! ^_^


- I am a certified BB cream addict. I (again) ordered 2 BB Creams. I can't wait to try these. (I  am honestly controlling myself not to open these yet - and the agony is killing me!) 





- Here is the first BB cream I would like to try. This is Skin 79 THE ORIENTAL GOLD BB CREAM PLUS. It was on sale for a whooping PhP695. This one comes with a lip and cheek color. :) 



- This is something new for me - ECORRE ARTIST BB CREAM. I got this for PhP550. I am quite hesitant with this because I am not familiar with this brand but something inside my head is telling me "buy it! buy it!!" LOL!!! I just hope that I will like this (*crossing my fingers*) 




- I love TONYMOLY Tints, so when I also saw this tint, I immediately 'grabbed' this (when you buy online especially through Facebook, you shout/type  'MINE!!!!!! to 'grab' an item) 









This looks pretty in actual!
- I got freebies from Ms. Grace. :) But I guess these two are my favorite ones. 




This is a personal note from Ms. Grace.  :) I should be the one thanking her for a LOT of things. ^_^ 








I can't wait for these ;)

REVIEW: TONYMOLY LUMINOUS GODDESS AURA BB CREAM

FINALLY!
I am so excited for this. This is actually a super late review. I wanna say sorry it took a long time for me to post something about this. :( 

Anyways, I wrote last time that our 'Big Boss' in Korea came and visited our company. He is such a really nice guy. Every time he comes to the Philippines, he brings something for his employees. This year, he gave us this: TonyMoly Luminous Goddess Aura BB Cream


I took this photo the day I got this from Mr. Kim! Yehey! 
-I think I got this like 3 weeks ago. I was so busy with work that I almost forgot to make a review for this. Now here we go!!!!!

REVIEW: BAVIPHAT MAGIC GIRL STAR GLAM - HIGHLIGHT PINK


I am a big fan of matte - matte-foundation, matte lipstick, matte blush-on etc. 

Then I just realize that I wanna try something new. So I decided to buy a highlighter just for a change. I got Baviphat Secret Recipe Magic Girls Star Glam Highlight - PINK (jeez. That's a loooong name!) . 

This is my first review for a highlighter. Hmmmm.. and I have mixed feelings for this product.



WARNING: AGAIN, I love taking photos (although I am not a photographer and I do not have a keen eye for perfection that most photography enthusiasts are looking for). This review contains a lot of images and it may take some time for the photos to load.




(Please click the photos if you want to enlarge the photos.) 
***********************************************


THE PRODUCT:
- This is a liquid HIGHLIGHTER  from Baviphat. 
- There are two shades for this highlighter - Gold and PINK. I will be doing a review of the PINK shade
- Baviphat does not have an English website :( I wish they have so I can take a look at their products (before I order them online) 
- Here's an English description for this product which I found on this website


Highlighter which can be used also as makeup base provides subtle luster that naturally blends in with the eye area, cheekbones, and nose to give volume and make face look smaller. Skin-fit polymer maintains skin clear and glossy for long hours. 
DIRECTION
Mix into makeup base or foundation for dazzling skin. On the last step of makeup, apply onto cheekbones and nose for smaller-looking face.
 


- PRICE: I got this on sale at 350pesos!!! (of course from my favorite online store -Han Ryu
- Volume: 15ml 
- It comes in a nail polish-like glass container (well actually, it looks more like a nail polish than a highlighter to me!)


It look's like a nail polish!
