Lookbook: Pastels

Pastels! I love pastels, well who doesn’t? This outfit is also perfect for back to school (if you guys don't wear uniforms). It's my first time filming a lookbook & I hope you guys like it. It's actually not the typical lookbook you see on youtube where you got to style the outfit for a lot of times.

Good food is good mood

Never wondered that I’ll end up eating in this lovely cafe. The cafe is located at Festivewalk Megaworld, Mandurriao. It’s at the second floor. Their coffees are below 180 pesos and they also have club sandwiches, cakes and carbonara! We ordered their carbonara because we wanted something heavy to eat for lunch. Their carbonara goes with a cup of americano (hot or cold, it’s your choice).

TATLONG PULO, GUIMARAS TRAVEL GUIDE: BUDGET & ITINERARY 🏝️☀️

Tatlong Pulo used to be a secret hideaway destination for bikers who loved the trail challenge to the pristine white sand beaches of this beautiful, rugged, scenic, and breathtaking locale in Barangay Sinapsapan, Jordan, Guimaras. 

This is definitely a place for vagabonds. We really had the perfect timing going there. There were only a few people who spent their night when we reached tatlong pulo. After they're gone, we felt like we rented the whole beach and Camp Sawi feels are real! Tatlong Pulo will surely bring you back to the old and shabby lifestyle.

MALALISON ISLAND TRAVEL GUIDE - BUDGET AND ITINERARY

Antique, the land where the mountains meet the sea. A hidden gem located in the Municipality of Culasi was found after Bagyong Yolanda. 

Tourists call it Malalison Island. Locals say it's Mararison. And I call it Paradise. Malalison  island is now being called as "The Batanes of Visayas". With its white sand beaches and sandbar, a small community of kind and honest people, the angelic voices of the children's choir, hundreds of pitcher plants in different sizes, a steep mountain and the unreal view from the peak is an experience I will always treasure. Malalison island is a 4-5 hour drive from Iloilo City. If you're coming from Boracay, it's about two hours away. Malalison is just a 15-30 minute boat ride from the port of Culasi. The island is not that crowded when we went there. I suggest to go there during weekdays.

Happy Easter Sunday Everyone!

The Bible tells us that Jesus Christ came to do three things. He came to have my past forgiven, you get a purpose for living and a home in Heaven.

Our heavenly Father understands our disappointment, suffering, pain, fear, and doubt. He is always there to encourage our hearts and help us understand that He's sufficient for all of our needs. When I accepted this as an absolute truth in my life, I found that my worrying stopped.

Happy Easter Sunday Everyone! Christ has Risen!

Thalassophobia?

Since I was a kid, I've been terrified of swimming in the pool alone, and terrified of the ocean to the point that if I see a log in the middle of the ocean, I would consider it as a shark and would not swim anymore. I hate my legs dangling in the water, I'm scared of not seeing what's underneath me yet I faced my fears and just kept swimming. And another thing, because of diving, I conquered my fear.

Welcome 2017

2016 has been one heck of a roller coaster. I've learned lots of things this year, may it be from a good or bad situation. I'm super thankful to the people who supported me in everything I do. To the people who have stayed with me, I LOVE YOU! I have overcome the struggles that God gave me in order to be strong. New opportunities are coming this 2017 and may God shower me with blessings all through out the year. To everyone reading this right now, thank you for being a part of my year. Cheers to an even better 2017!

Tis the Season to be SEPHORA Glammin

In the olden days, the Aztecs used beetles to make red lipstick. Makeup has existed for thousands of years; well, a form of makeup that is. We’ve become much more conscious about what we put on our skin. From the ingredients and the trends that have changed, one things has stayed consistent  – women love how wearing makeup allows them to feel beautiful, gorgeous and sometimes fierce.

A.T Organics: Lip & Blush Tints

Women have been applying color to their lips in roughly the same fashion since 1923 -- when an American invented the twist-up lipstick tube. I have tried these kinds of lip and blush tints before but in a different brand. Blush tints are very famous back then and has now made its comeback. What makes it different from a lipstick is that a lip stain contains mostly water or gel.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Not just my birthday, but also the day where I first said yes to a guy. “Parang kailan lang” is what I can really say. Back to the days where I don’t care about boys, relationship goals and having a boyfriend, only a crush can make my life complete back then. char! but yes that’s true (even if you ask my close friends). I didn’t even imagine myself having a boyfriend and dealing with relationship problems. I’ve been dreaming about it that if one day, I will ever commit myself in a relationship, I want years, not months. Especially if he is my first. I don’t want to waste my first love/relationship to a guy who’s just playing my feelings.

1 more year and I’m legal!

Happy Birthday to me!  Thank you to those who greeted me via facebook, twitter, text, chat, call and in person. It’s my last year of being a minor and I must enjoy it! 17 years of riding a roller coaster, from the ups and downs, the challenges that i have encountered and the sacrifices that i have made, I have survived! Now is not the end of the ride but the continuation of it for whom I do not know where and what will happen on this journey of mine. There will be more trials coming my way but I know I can do it because of you lord. Thank you Lord for adding another year to my life! Thank you for giving me countless opportunities and blessings.

Keratin Pure Hair Treatment Review

Keratin treatments have quite been popular nowadays. Many people have said that Keratin treatment in salons have a similarity with hair rebonding but without using a ceramic flat iron. I’ve tried it once and had a terrible experience about it. However, this keratin pure daily hair treatment twisted my first impression about it.
