Random Stuff, Just to Keep This Blog Alive

Though I told myself to only get back to blogging once I'm back in Gensan, leaving this blog lifeless for more than a week feels like a major offense for me. So here's a quick post about some random stuff for the last two weeks.

Met with Aine last week when she came to visit Cebu. Hi Aine! It was too short a visit and I wish I could spend more time with you!

The saleslady at the in2it counter insisted that I try their liquid eyeliner. She even applied some on my waterline to prove that it's waterproof. And she's almost right! Almost because while the liner did not smudge, it sort of started falling off, but only after a few hours later when I tried rubbing my eyes. I think I might get this someday when I run out of liquid eyeliner.

Trying out Max Factor Colour Perfection in 935 Peony. It's a lovely warm pink that I first thought is a shade of red. I love this color and I believe it suits my skin color. The quality of the lipstick is great too: creamy, not drying and long-lasting. It's a very wearable color but it doesn't suit my style as of now. I'm more fond of shades of orange and coral lately. If ever I venture to pink, I prefer the lighter shade such as that of Sophie Martin Summer Pink.

Air-drying my dollface costemics brushes. My sister gave these to me last Christmas and I've been meaning to make a review for the longest time, but I don't know. I just don't feel like it. I feel like I don't have much to say.
I experimented with my friends again, as I've always done since I discovered my love for make-up.

Istin is a typical warm-toned morena hence the choice of colors. This looks way better in person as the bronzer and highlighter I used really gave her skin a beautiful glow.

Her untamed eyebrow made it really hard for me to draw her brows. O well.

Fei, my roommate, is cool-toned and the colors pink and purple just looked lovely on her.

no, this isn't me. But I did the make-up.

she's supaaa tall!  Without the heels, she's almost as tall as me (5'5) but with her shoes, I look like a midget next to her.
Although it was an amateur fashion show, it was kinda a big event and there were A LOT of really good make-up artists there. I realized I need to start looking somewhat professional too. I need a traincase for my make-up.

Been watching Death Note again lately. And after watching the scene where Light outwits L by hiding a camera in a pack of potato chips, I was suddenly gripped by a craving to get myself my own pack of potato chips! And so, I chose to brave the dark streets at 10 in the evening and rushed into the nearest convenience store, just to get my hands on the pack I'm holding above!

Been gallivanting around Cebu lately. I realized there are lots of historical sites near where I live. Now that my "buddy" is no longer busy studying, I finally have somebody to tag along. But this whole adventure is for another post. 
That's it for tonight. I still have more gallivanting to do tomorrow!
And oh, if you're into cheesy stuff, I suggest you watch this video:

Kilig dba?
