After you see these liquid velvet matte lipsticks from Pink Sugar, you'll be saying, "Kylie who?" I never found the appeal of Kylie's lipsticks because I knew that there are good local brands in the market now that offer the same lippies that are equally good, and one of these brands is Pink Sugar. The newly released Sugar Tint shades include: Code Red, Vampy Vixen, Queen Bee, Honey Bunny, and Naughty Nude are the ones that resemble Kylie Jenner's collection the most.

Ever since Pink Sugar launched last year, I have been hooked to the brand. They offer so much great products at a very reasonable price, and their products are of good quality. Their Sweet Cheeks blush range is to die for, and there's one for every skin tone.

Philippine weather is always in the humid side, sometimes we find ourselves wishing it would be awesome to have a little rain to cool down the weather a bit. Being the preggo lady that I am with extremely dry skin, I am on the constant look out for lightweight moisturizers that would give me the maximum hydration my skin needs without feeling sticky. The last gel-based moisturizer I enjoyed using was Lancome's Aqua Fusion Moisturizer, and BRTC Overnight Pore Tightener. It's basically a night moisturizer.

Bath time for Henri is always fun because he loves taking a bath! He also loves his big yellow tub! He's a toddler now, but I still love using baby stuff on him, specially Johnson's because they always smell so good and so baby-ish.

One of the best things about cleansing wipes is that you can cleanse your face while you're in bed on days you are just too tired to remove your makeup and wash your face. Me, who is very OC about removing makeup before bed, I do get those days sometimes specially after a long and tiring day.

Choosing cleansing wipes is like choosing the right mascara, not all will work for you, but there will always be one that will. I am one of those lucky people who is "hiyang" with all the cleansing wipes I have tried in the past. So when some of my readers would ask me which one I would recommend, I would enumerate to them the ones I have tried and just let them decide.

I have featured a number of cleansing wipes before: SkinLite, H2O+, Burt's Bees, Nivea, Cetaphil, and Bioré.

I have always been a fan of Avon products because their claims to their products always deliver. I was first introduced to Avon products about 5 years ago when I first got invited to their event and I was hooked ever since.

One of my favorite Avon Body products is their line of Avon Naturals Shower Gels. I think those are just the best ever! And now they're back with a new line of Skin So Soft lotions that are just divine. They also sent me some bras that fit me perfectly and I think are just so sexy!

All these NEW products are available in this month's catalogue.

I have always been curious about the whole Oval Makeup Brush trend that has makeup lovers gush over online. Being the makeup addict and lover that I am, of course I had to check them out myself. I ordered a set online, not the branded ones, but ones that have no name but made in the US just the same.

There are a lot of Oval Makeup Brush Sets on Ebay that cost almost like $5 for a set, but these are made in China. I opted for ones that are made in the US, and bought them from Amazon for $40 a set of 10 brushes. The brushes you see below are only 9 because I gave one to my friend who badly wanted one. And since it was almost the same size as the ones in  the middle, I gave her one.

There's nothing more than I despise than fake looking eyebrows. I have been blessed with a lush and full brow that having to groom them is almost a pain in the butt. But I do believe that having natural-looking eyebrow is key.

I love how girls now of all ages are so into contouring and highlighting! I remember how women were so scared of the word contouring because of how old they might look. Now, definition is a crucial part of any makeup look whether it be for day or night makeup!

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Sleek over the years, especially their blushes and lip products, but it was really hard to get my hands on before when I was still actively doing makeup. But now that Sleek is finally here, I can get my hands on their products every time I catch wind of what product is really good to try right now! So when Sleek sent me their cheek palettes, I had to open everything and try all of it in one go! I have tried Sleek's Matte Me lipstick before and I just love how their products deliver what they promise, so I knew that these babies will work just as well too!

In the lipstick world, MAC pretty much has it covered specially when it comes to matte lipsticks. Their matte lipsticks are rather amazing and provide a fantastically matte finish that a lot of other companies simply can’t reproduce -they have been the pioneers in matte lipsticks.

I have always been a fan of facial exfoliation because I love how the skin glows after. I exfoliate my face once a week, or at the most, twice.

When Clinique sent me their Sonic System I was over the moon excited! I have been obsessing over it for the past months actually and now I get to experience it myself first hand. I'm going to combine two reviews today which includes the Sonic System, and their latest foundation innovation: Beyond Perfecting Foundation+Concealer.
When I think about it, it's a bit weird how I am really digging the Clarisonic and the Clinique Sonic System. But here's the thing: I see the benefits in each of them. As far as I'm concerned, there isn't a best brush or the best sonic cleansing brush set – there is a brush/cleansing brush that is best fit for you and your skin.
