3 Essential Lipstick Colors + an unexpected treat! :)

Early this week, I got myself 3 more NYX lipsticks from Chara. Even though I have tons of lipsticks and most of them are NYX, I couldn't resist since the colors that I got are what I consider essentials, the ones most used and can never run out of. These essential lip colors everyone needs in their kits are red, bright pink and a nude-ish color. That's why I was glad and ecstatic to see Chara had these colors available, and without hesitation I decided to get them. The colors I got from her was Louisiana, Electra and Echo.



Louisiana is a a really nice, vibrant bright pink color, think of Barbie's lip color. :) Electra is a true red color, so vampy and is said to be MAC Russian Red's dupe. While Echo is a nude lipstick perfect for those smokey looks to use alone or over other lipsticks to tame down color.

I will never run out of occassions, makeup gigs and events in which I can use these colors for. They are perfect in completing and or complementing your various make up looks. I can't wait to give it a test run and use it for my clients and on gigs soon! These lipstick colors will be scene stealers! :)

On another topic, I'd like to share with you girls a picture of Fabio Ide an up and coming model and actor here in the Philippines. It was such a pleasure to work with him again. Photo was taken by the wonderful RB Chanco from our shoot yesterday, If you look closely you can see me and Maui in the background haha. Now I will do some shameless plugging hehe because Fabio is irresistable, don't forget to watch his move D'Sruvivors together with other Brazilian/Japanese hotties Akihiro Sato and Daniel Matsunaga. This movie is screaming Brazilian meat!! Go watch it. :)

Enjoy Girls!!



Toodles! :)

So here was last week including today's haul. Looking at it now I can't believe that I found time in my busy week to get all those goodies! Like what I said in my previous post, I am crazy.

Anyway, today was the Poveda fair and even though it was hot, I was sleepy and super stressed looking, I had a lot of fun. Sales were well too! So I am a happy happy bee!! :)

Only thing I am waiting for now are the pictures of Saturday's Studio Shoot! I definitely will share them with everyone! I can't wait. I may have another shoot this weekend for different looks this time. :) So that's something to look out for too! :)

It has been a busy week preparing for the fair, taking care of my business, the studio shoot and hauling make up! all will be put to good use! :)


Heading off to bed girlies! It's goodnight in my part of the world! :)


Toodles! :)
