Just "brows"

Hi everyone!


This is totally not a make up post. I just wanted to see the difference of a full brow on a bare face. Ever since Sunday afternoon, I have been developing some sort of rash/allergy. I went to the doctor yesterday and I'm just gonna have to start with a hypoallergenic diet and medication.

With that said, I'm a little scared of putting on foundation thinking it might also cause itching on my face. I really need something to make me look "alive" today so I decided to just shape my brows! ☺





Here's the products that I used in filling my brows:

Mary Kay Signature Brow Definer Pencil in Brunette 
Brunette


Dual brush (brows/eyes) I got from the department store
NERD. ;P




Hi! :)


Yes, I took photos in the office! LOL



I feel/look fresh even without foundation on!


Quite shallow, but doing my brows made me feel a little better despite having to endure the itch all over my body! Haha! 



Happy Tuesday!

Youtube-ing

Hi there!


I know you're very familiar with "youtube". I have been a member since 2010 and it was only last year that I uploaded a video of my cousin singing "Betty Davis Eyes"! LOL I just use my account just to subscribe to channels that I think would inspire me to be creative just when I think I'm having that "Oh-my-gosh-I'm-so-bored-my-brain's-not-working" moment. Youtube is where most people show their talents and they get famous for it!

I, however, do not want to get famous for anything really. It's where I can just let loose, methinks. Anyway, most people close to me know that I LOVE MAKE-UP! Any brand, any color, as long as it doesn't have lead content then I will use it! I have a small collection here at home and every time I get that paycheck, better be sure I have a little something to take home from the beauty counter: make-up, nail polish, etc! One attendant even told me once that I never leave the counter without buying anything! Haha! Oh well! Moving on, I recently made a video "tutorial". It's funny really, I was too early at work and filmed and edited it just using my iPhone!

Check it out and let me know what you think!

P.S.:
Go easy on me, I'm a neophyte! ;)


Now Playing: Pitch Perfect

I know I may be late on this, but I have already seen this movie 5 times in 2 days! 2 days! I can only tolerate a few so-so movies and there's only a handful of movies I love to watch countless of times (like Enemy at the Gates, 50 First Dates, The Devil Wears Prada, Sex and the City 1&2, Titanic and very few Filipino movies). I allow myself to drown in chick flicks especially when I'm PMS-ing and looking for something to comfort me. When I can't find that comfort in food, I watch movies.


The first time I saw this movie was with my siblings and I was not in the mood so I didn't really see the whole movie. The second time was at the office, when my office-mate told me she's already seen it. Since then, I have been watching it until Sunday when I let my boyfriend see the movie after we had breakfast. Right now, I'm itching to watch it again!


Sure, there's GLEE that we can compare it with (although I'm so bored with Glee right now, no offense). However, I don't think they're both even the same (well, except for their Broadway-experienced stars). There's something inviting about this movie that it immerses you into the story. The movie has attitude, aside from the comical antics of Rebel Wilson (who plays "Fat Amy") who is SUPER HILARIOUS! I think she made the movie super funny in a way. I also love (SURPRISE, SURPRISE!) Beca's character! I love her. She's spunky and so cool. Anna Kendrick is a surprise to me because well,  I just saw her in Twilight. I was so shocked that she sings REALLY WELL! Of course, add that to the fact that I did not know that she used to do Broadway. Amazing voice! Can I just also say that even though the story is just light, no heavy dramas (despite the early resentment Beca has for her dad on his divorce to her mom, thank goodness!), it's very appealing and it made sense. I love that even the story is just light, they do not make it feel nor look like the movie's dull or the excitement you get when watching is just fleeting.

To get a grasp on what I'm talking about (if you guys haven't seen the movie yet) please check out the videos below. :)
