A bunch of times I tried to keep some things hidden. All to cover the insecurities, I'd wear long sleeves on a hot weather, put on jackets on my camisoles or maybe, not just leave the house to not bother thinking of what I could wear comfortably.

The Secret:

Now, we've all been exposed to tons of whitening deos to help get rid of dark underarms, also, not to mention our obsession over "natural" methods. But little do we know how much limited benefits it could only give us despite the good results. 

So here's something new and different that assures us with more than just whiter underarms.

Introducing Dove’s NEW Ultimate Repair Dark Marks Corrector. Formulated with ¼ moisturizing cream and Vitamin B3 (also known as Niacinamide), it goes beyond whitening as it not only corrects dark marks but also repairs underarm skin damage to visibly restore smooth and even-toned underarms.



It's okay to settle for a good whitening product but why settle for good if you can have something better and bolder, yes?

Lots of Filipinos of all genders, from as young as their pre-teens up to adulthood, are head-over-heels with skincare. Due to the extremes of the climate in our country, Filipinos are compelled to try different skincare products and brands just to maintain the nourishment if the skin.

I, also, transfer from one product to another because they just don't ever have a maximum effect on my skin. I came across Magnemask Sheet Mask from Olay and decided to give it a try.

Claims:

"superior technology infuses maximum benefit and leaves skin renewed and refreshed in just 15 minutes."

"reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles"

"24 hours hydration"

"revealing younger looking skin"

Review:

Juggling both my path as a blogger and having an office job, I often forget to do my skin care routine because sometimes I also work from home. So after stumbling upon this new sheetmask from Olay, I've had the best solution for multitasking work and skincare.Here's why:

Its optimal fit helps my skin get all the benefits of the mask as it covers my entire face well. I am able to do work plus drink my fave coffee while hydrating my skin. After 15 minutes, I felt instantly renewed and refreshed (as in I swear I can feel the cool residue on my face). I used a clean cotton to remove excess residue and I was good to go.

Usually my skin gets a bit dry throughout the day, which is especially noticed when I apply my makeup. Before leaving home, I decided to apply a thin layer of concealer and foundation to see how it will work, and the result is very satisfying. My skin looked so fresh the entire day.

Also, tried this mask at night before going to bed. Same procedure, but this time I let the excess residue on my skin to somehow serve as my sleeping mask. I woke up with a really soft skin! The residue was absorbed well and it left me with a glowing skin.

Overall, this product is an absolute YES for me. Would I recommend it? YES.

With that, I no longer feel the need of transferring to another product because just like Cinderella's glass slipper, Olay Magnemask Sheet Mask, is a perfect fit. <3 

We've all seen the extravagant heavenly bodies inspired theme from this year's MET Gala, and one of the most awaited grand ball of well-known stars from ABS-CBN. But all thanks to E! Philippines, the blogging community was also given a spotlight to shine at our best as we celebrated the annual E! Blogger's Ball.

FYI, the first E! Bloggers Ball was just in 2016 and in its third year in 2018, bloggers, vloggers, influencers and other TV personalities are dressed in high shine.

Sharing with you my outfit from this year's ball, designed by Vee Tan of VeeTan Studios

This gown which came out as a surprise for me. It somehow reminds me of Maleficent plus when Kendall Jenner literally went all out at MET Gala 2017.

There's no story behind this design (at least on my end) since I did not have anything particular in mind to wear. I just told Vee about the theme and to my surprise she designed me this undeniably sparkly and revealing gown. But not complaining here! I'm in love!

It's a no-brainer that Makati has always been a busy city where some of the best offices, malls, and fun establishments are located, but so does traffic. 

But let me share with you this Alternative Solution to Makati's Traffic!

Ayala Land has found a new home for young urban professionals that will save you from all the hassle the big city has to offer - The FLATS Amorsolo.

Well technically (and obviously) none of them is Rudolf and neither a breed of raindeers but I was just filled with excitement that such a place exist in the Philippines!
A bunch of deers welcomed us at the Deer Farm in Bicol and I was both extremely happy and quite uncertain with the place because the entire area was literally a pool of deer poop! But nonetheless my eyes and heart were filled with so much joy to see and get close with these lovely creatures! 

This won't be the last of my ruffled series. You may shop these outfits from by Lo and Behold via this link.

If you want to try matcha without tasting too much matcha, then Tea-ramisu is the drink for you. This drink is made of heaven; Rich green tea blended with mascarpone cheese, finished with a swirl of whipped cream and sprinkled with green tea cookie crumbles.

Can you just imagine all these blended in one drink? So good.

From that heavenly bliss of Tea-ramisu, the Midnight Mocha on the other hand is your edgy frappuccino that has a bit more powerful taste. The Starbucks Coffee is infused with black cocoa powder, with a blend of java chip and a mid layer of fluffy whipped cream, then topped with a dash of black cocoa powder.

 I'd say this is a drink to power up your summer nights!

Both sounds and tastes undeniably great but my heart goes to Tea-ramisu - a drink that I'd finally replace with my usual Caramel Macchiato with whipped cream, haha!

I guess it all started with this pair of trousers from Mango (bought in Zalora) which I got early this year. I remember I was heading to a meeting when I first wore it, and I wasn't pretty sure if this outfit suits with the 'meeting' agenda. Good to know that it wasn't a corporate nor a formal meeting since I was too smart casual as I paired it up with a turtle neck top and sneakers.

Few months after, my friends and I visited Cebu and one of its tourists spots, the Temple of Leah (blogged here). Looked it up on google and I thought it would be nice to wear something less casual and luckily saw this classy top in Forever21 which I immediately fell in love with.

And making its second appearance are my trousers topped with a layer of a classic button-down shirt and a casual tee from 0917 Clothing. I wanted to do something different with the tee than just wearing it with denims.

 This outfit isn't smart for summer but I risked to mix-match it with a long sleeved turtle neck and a beaded oversized denim jacket.
