Recently, I’ve been trying different lip tints from different
shops. I think that lip tints are long lasting rather than lip cream or
lipsticks.
FYI: Not to brag or
whatsoever, but I do have smooth lips (which I will share sometime how I got
that lips) that’s why I really have a hard time applying lipsticks as the color
only glides on my lips. It really doesn’t stay that long. For the past few
years, I’ve been using lip cream together with a lip balm but it didn’t really
stayed that long. I usually have to retouch my lips every now and then. So last
year, I tried using lip tint for a change. Lip tints really wowed me!
(Helloo nude lips!)
At first, I was really hesitant to buy this as I wasn’t planning on buying
another lip tint since I still use my Peri Pera tint which I purchased months
ago. But since I know that The Face Shop’s My Lips Eat Cherry Aqua Tint is
always out of stock when I needed one so I might as well stock on this one.
TFS My Lips Eat Cherry comes in 3 shades. I
choose #2 Juicy Red because I wanted a red shade instead. This is also the
cheapest tint I purchased so far. Bought this for Php225 only! Nice right?
This comes with a wand applicator for easy use.
It said to be water based but I think it’s somehow in jelly form
that why it can easily glide on my lips. One thing I really don’t like about
lip tints is that it can make my lips so dry and chapped so I have to apply lip
balm first. But this one’s different. I didn’t have to put much lip balm just
to make it moist. And one thing I really like about this product is that it
really didn’t made my lips so dry nor chapped.
I have used this as my daily tint for a few weeks now and I can
say that this is really good.
Pros:
-
Affordable (Php 225 only)
-
Very well pigmented
-
Doesn’t make my lips so dry or chapped
-
Long lasting (didn’t have to reapply or retouch every now and then)
-
Spreads easily
Cons:
-
No English translation
- Always out of stock
- Maybe a cuter packaging?
Will I re-purchase this again? YES! Will definitely do!
Had my first shoot for this year with Chops at BGC last Monday.
Had to shoot at a rush hour (around 5pm) around BGC.
We spent just 45 minutes to an hour for the shoot. Yay! It was my first time to
encounter a photographer who shoots fast or maybe because he already had plans
in his mind as to where we will shoot in BGC. Saves time for both of us! I actually like that
idea better since I usually experience spending at least 2-3 hours for an
outdoor shoot.
Like these shots! Here are some of his photos:
I would like to thank Chops for this lovely photos and for
the opportunity ~ See ya again next shoot!
Was looking for a new food stop at Lilac Street in SSS Village
Marikina when we found this newly opened Korean and Thai restaurant named Trick’s Resto.
Did a research on their menu and prices online but wasn’t able to look for one.
The photos outside the resto was very appealing to me so we tried it.
The restaurant had a big black gate which I guess the owners house before it
was made to be a resto. They had 2 doors that had an “Open” sign on it so I
asked the staff which door should we enter. He said that the left door was for Korean food
customers while the right door was for Thai food customers. Why is that?
We chose the left door as we wanted to try their Korean foods. Upon entering,
we saw a grill in the middle of the table which is used to cook or grill the
meat for Korean foods they serve.
We went around 3pm so there was no customers except us. Yay! Had a hard time
choosing what to order since there were really a lot to choose from.
Btw, here’s their menu:

picture of all their menu haha
(Thai Menu)
Then the staff recommended us to order their Shabu Shabu (good for 2-3
persons but I think it’s enough for 2 persons only).
They gave us a pan filled with soup only and the ingredients for the shabu
shabu. And they also served us some appetizers.
Their shabu shabu was really tasty! Though I think the
serving was only enough for 2 persons.
While eating, we watched Korean videos as it was played on their television. By the way,
staffs were really nice!
Afterwards, we tried this Korean popsicles which I don’t know the name. We got
a Watermelon popsicle which was very yummy! And a chocolate like popsicle.
It’s really yum yum here! Wanted to try other dishes but was already full.
Might come back here again soon!
