Navy Blue Patterned Scarf and Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone! Are you ready for Christmas?:) Yay! I still have more presents to wrap and groceries to do for our Christmas dinner. But hey! Don't forget, enjoy every moment and take lots of photos!:)

Here's a little peek of our Christmas tree and also my outfit of the day - Just warm and cozy!:) 

I haven't use this scarf a lot, since I tend to use my gray scarf more. I forgot how much I adore this fun scarf, lovin' this navy blue color, and the multiple patterns are just perfect for this season. Can you believe it's from Pier 1?:) I know.. I got it last year, and I thought they only have some home stuff, but hey! This is an awesome find! One of a kind!:)

Review: Revlon Berry Haute Creme 660 Lipstick

Hi everyone! I hope you're enjoying my nail video tutorials lately, there's more coming soon. But I'm back with another review for you!:) Check out this Revlon Berry Haute Lipstick!:)

Wouldn't it be perfect for this holiday season? It's such a beautiful festive color!:)

Lovin' this shade and as you can see I used it a lot!:)



My thoughts: The picture shows 1 swipe on the right, and I swiped it a couple times on the left side. It is definitely a buildabe lipstick. It's a cream base, so it's definitely moisturizing. It has a pretty good long lasting power, but still you need to reapply it if necessary specially after you eat.

Although the color maybe a little bright for some of you, it's still a great everyday lipstick if you want to add a pop of color.

I would rate it 5 star out of 5 because everything works well for me and I love it!:)

Thanks again for joining me today!:)

Review: Essence Long Lasting Lipstick - 09 Wear Berries

Hi everyone! I'm back with another product review! Hooray!:) Have you guys tried Essence product? I haven't, until I was able to grab some of these lipsticks that you're about to see today and the upcoming post.

Let's start with this Wear Berries - Long Lasting Lipstick. I got them at Ulta for about $2.99!:)

I actually like the packaging already and this color definitely caught my attention!:)

Here, you'll see the 1 swipe on the right. And the one on the left is a couple times. It's pretty buildable. Awesome berry color!:)


My Thoughts: At first I wasn't really sure if how this lipstick will work on me. Knowing that I haven't tried this product before. The first thing that I noticed when I applied it was, it' smooth, it's pretty smooth and moisturizing to apply. I was actually pretty impressed with the color pay off. Not bad at all. 

Second that I noticed is the scent, I'm not so good in describing scent(lol) but it has something - you can even taste it (lol).I wouldn't say it has a sweet scent, but it didn't really bother me.

I'm not really sure about the long lasting part (this maybe different for everybody) but it comes off easily after eating a meal - which what I usually do is to reapply it like any other lipstick.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this lipstick. Not bad at all for the price. It's becoming one of my favorite everyday lipstick. I would rate it 4 out of 5.

Thanks again for joining me today!:)

Review: Olay Complete - All Day Moisturizer with Sunscreen

Hi everyone! How are you guys doing? I hope you're having an amazing day so far!:) Well today, I have another skin care review for you! Check out this Olay Complete - All day Moisturizer with Sunscreen.

Lovin' this packaging better! It used to be in a circular container, but this one gives you more control on how much product you want to use. It's sanitary too!:)


My Thoughts: This has been my go to moisturizer for years!:) It is so moisturizing, that you couldn't asked for more!:)

It smells great too! Having a sunscreen is a big plus as well. It doesn't feel sticky or heavy at all.

I would rate it 5 star out of 5. I highly recommend it if you're looking for one! It's one of the best out there and worth a try! Love it!:)

Remember, to only use products that is best for your skin.

Review: Revlon Rum Raisin Lipstick - 535 Creme

Hi everyone! I hope you're having an amazing day so far!:) I'm back with another product review! Hooray!:) 
I got the Rum Raisin shade, but there are so many colors to choose from if you like!:)

As you can see, this lipstick is well loved!:)



My Thoughts: The swatched above is just 1 swipe of this lipstick. It is very pigmented creme finish and moisturizing too. 

I'm always hesitant in buying a natural shade lipstick because it washes me out most of the time. Surprisingly, this one is awesome!:) 

If you're looking for a perfect everyday natural shade, I recommend for you to try this one.It's so pretty!:) It stays on for a good amount of time, but no problem re-applying it. 

I would rate it 5 star out of 5 because everything works well for me and I love it!:)

Thanks again for joining me today!:)

Hi everyone! I'm back sharing my first nail polish post!:) Woot! I love nail polishes, I remember back when I was younger how much I enjoyed collecting it and I still do!:) I'm sure most of you too right?:)

Review: Jesse's Girl Lip Liner - Plummie

Hi everyone! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!:) Let's start our week here with another product review!Woohoo!:) 

Check out this lip liner by Jesse's Girl - Plummie shade.


I bought it awhile back, it's pretty inexpensive. It's about $1.99 at Rite Aid. I really like that it has a sharpener included.:)

I believe there are 6 shades to choose from. Plummie caught my attention since I know it will match more on my lipstick collection.:)


This color is really pretty, it's perfect for fall or holiday time too!:)


My Thoughts: This is a really pigmented lip liner, for the price it's really amazing!:) The swatched above shows you the 1 swipe, as well as layers of it if you want to apply it all over your lips.

It is a lipliner, so it is definitely matte and dry. Unless you like that kind of texture. I prefer to apply it all over my lips and add same shade of lipstick or lipgloss over. Some days, just the lip liner all over the lips and lip balm works for me too.

It is very easy to apply, not too soft / creamy to the point that it will easily bleed after eating / drinking through out the day. It has a nice long lasting formula.

I recommend it for you to try if you're looking for one. I would rate it 5 star out of 5. Love it!:)

Review: Pixi Eye Bright Liner No.1 - Nude

Hi everybody!:) Have you guys tried using a nude color eye liner? If you haven't and wanted to try one, today I will be sharing my thoughts about the Pixi Eye Bright Liner No.1 - Nude. Let's check it out!:)


Aside from their online shop, I believe this brand is exclusive at Target, which where I got it last year for about $14.


As you can see it's a non-sharpening precision point pen. You just twist it, and you'll get that much product which is pretty good for the price.:) Depending on how often you'll use it, it will last you longer.



My Thoughts: I really love that it's waterproof, and suitable for sensitive eyes. It is very easy to use and so smooth to apply. The nude - flesh color is perfect to brighten up your eye, makes it look wide awake and larger without looking too harsh. In my opinion, it looks more natural compared to white eye liner.

I highly recommend this product if you want to give it a try. I love it, and will give it 5 star out of 5. Remember, to only use products that is best for your skin.

For Home / Review : Household Cleaning Products To Try!

Hi everyone! As much as we love clothes, make-up, and so many things, our home is well loved too right?!:) I'm pretty sure all of us buy cleaning supplies for our household. And you know you love the products if you have been repurchasing it many times, and that's why I'm sharing it here today because I think they are worth it. 

If you're a Mom like me, having kids at home means we all need to clean more than usual.lol No worries! Just have fun! Why not!:) 

This is just the beginning of my household product reviews, I have tons of products to share in the future. Stay tune!:)

  • Weiman Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish -  I highly recommend for you to try this one, if you have stainless steel appliances, fingerprints are definitely everywhere. Spots are so visible and it doesn't look clean at all. I'm using this spray with a cloth specifically for stainless steel, it works great! I also tried using it with paper towel, it works well too. I also tried their Stainless Steel Wipes, works the same and also love it!:)

  • Old English Furniture Polish: Almond - This has been a long time favorite of mine. It works so well everyday, specially on our dining table. It's spotless and shiny! I tried other scent, but I always come back on the almond scent. It smells so good, making it more fresh and clean!:) Definitely worth a try if you're looking for one!:)


  • Method Daily Granite: Cleans + Polishes - Method products never disappoint me!:) In our household we have tried tons of Method products already. And ever since we tried this granite cleaner, it has been our favorite!:) It works wonders, and my favorite part is it smells SO good! Works great on granite, marble, and stone. It's Non-toxic & Plant based too. Give it try if you're looking for one, you're gonna love it!:)



I have been using these products ever since. I hope it works for you too!:) Do you have any favorites that works well too? Leave a comment below, I'm up for new products to try!:)

Review: Maybelline Instant Age Rewind- Eraser Dark Circle Treatment Concealer - Brightener

Hi everybody! I'm back with another beauty product review for you!:) Check out this Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circle Treatment Concealer - Brightener, I believe there are 6 neutralizing shade to choose from.

I heard so many great things about it, that's why I decided to give it a try. I bought it last year, and played with it for awhile and now I'm here to share my thoughts! Does it work or not?:)

The applicator looks interesting and soft. You have to twist it a couple times (there's an arrow pointing where to twist it) so the concealer will come out. Remember don't twist it too much, or else tons of product will come out.

The shade that I got is Brightener - it has a pink / peach tone.

My Thoughts: I already have my moisturizer on before applying this concealer. When I first tried it I put too much product, It is a brightener after all and too much product means too bright for me. Lesson learned, just apply little by little. It has a creamy light texture, it is definitely buildable. And after playing with it for awhile, I finally got it!:)

Keep in mind that this shade is Brightener, I picked that shade for the purpose of brightening my under eye area. It definitely helps to make me look more awake if I have one of those days that I needed something to freshen up my face.:) I don't really have extreme dark circles, but it did a great job covering up my minor dark circles if I'm lack of sleep.:) I'm thinking Neutralizer shade might work better for extreme dark circles ( that shade was actually my second choice, and I still do want to try it in the future to see the difference.) :)

It blends well, and didn't crease at all. It lasted all day long. I never had any allergy reaction as well when using it, which is great!

Overall, I really enjoyed this product, and I will be repurchasing it again. I recommend it and will give it 4.5 star out of 5. Remember, to only use products that is best for your skin.

Thanks for joining me today!:)

3 Simple Ways To Freshen Up Your Home!

Hi everybody! Recently I have been redecorating our house, added some bits and pieces and just totally lovin' how it's going so far. Today I will be sharing some simple ways to freshen up your home!:) 

  • Freshen Up by adding Plants / Flowers - I have these empty small flower pots for awhile now. And I thought it's about time to add some fresh plants that will make this area of my home pop!:) It makes a lot of difference! If you're wondering, these are succulent plants, an easy care house plant. Love it!:)

    • Freshen Up by adding Pop of Colors! - My home has a neutral pallette, so I play with colors through the decorations. As you can see, I love the pop of mint color, It's fresh and clean!:)



    • Freshen Up With Scent! - Although I have my favorite candle scent which is the Relaxing Lavender by Yankee Candle. I always find another scent to switch things up. Keep in mind that there are so many home fragrances available, it doesn't need to be candles if it's not your cup of tea.:)


    Thanks for joining me today, and have fun decorating your lovely home!:)
