Ninetendo Wii!!!!

I guess this is my lucky month! Just last week my Bf bought me a new PSP 3000! and i have lots of games to finish that would last me a long time. But just yesterday my mom bought us a new Nintendo Wii!!! After an endless promises of going to Hk for vacation that was planned for since last year and was always postponed for some reasons, my mom decided to buy us a new Nintendo Wii to make up for not going to HK this September...AGAIN!! And secondary reason, i could workout at home by playing the Wii active and Wii Sports! My mom couldn't let me out to have my workout at gym, she thought that working out at home could save time and money, cause traveling could eat up almost an hour just to go to the Gym.

Well anyway, we went to Greenhills and bought one at the same store where my BF bought the PSP 3000. It was such a good deal! My mom paid 13,500 for the basic package, 8 in 1 Sports pack, an extra wii remote and nunchak, free silicone/jacket bundel set, and 5 free games. I was so excited that i bought 6 more games!!!! I really got excited when i reached home, i coudn't wait for my Wii to be setup so i could tried all the games i bought.:) i can't decide which game would i tried first and keep on having this dilemma!!!!waaaahhh!!!! It is such an amazing month for me to received these wonderful gifts from my love ones and best of all i got them for FREE!!!! hehe

Product Review: Faceshop Rice water Cleansing Foam

They say:

A moisturizing and brightening cleansing line with rice water and Moringa oil. Moringa oil known as 'purifying tree' in India has very strong detoxifying quality. People used to put grinded Moringa plant in the polluted river water to detoxify.

Description:

Contains rice water(10%) Fit Protein orchid extract Vitamin B5 complex. Its creamy and cushiony texture eases handling and moisturizing ingredients leave skin feeling hydrated after cleansing by minimizing moisture loss.


Personal Reviw:

I never get tired of using this facial foam, it's nice and lathers away impurities, make-up, and accumulation of daily and nightly facial oil. The scent is light and powdery..It has a creamy and smooth texture with moisturizing ingredients that leaves skin hydrated and soft. Just a small amount of it could cover up my whole face, so it would take a long time for me before I�ll buy another one again. Good for all skin types, I actually have a very sensitive skin and this product never fails me and instead it was better than I expected.

My New Toy!!!

Bf and i went to greenhills to look for a good package deal of PSP. While browsing various of stores the other day we managed to find one that has the best offer. So Bf bought one PSP 3000 for me yesterday as a gift!!! I'm so happy that i requested the store to install some games so i could play with it while going home. I was thinking of buying one for me since last year but was always postponed for some reason. Receiving this PSP (which has been in my wishlist for so long)from my Bf as a gift is certainly the most wonderful thing that happened this week.:) I couldn't believe he would be willing to spend much just to make me happy. I kept on sliding my fingers across the box and just staring at the picture shown in it as we ride all the way home. I chose the color "Organ Black" coz i really like the glossy texture of it. The features of it really catched my attention..I could play mp3, browse Pictures & videos, browse the net and add some cool applications to maximize the capability of it. Moreover, There are lots of cool games to choose from and it's wide screen provides better view on playing, surfing & watching videos. It's incredibly a great gift! Thanks bebe:D-Love it!

Product Review: Posietint

Posietint is the pink version of the most famous and bestselling, Benetint. When i first heard of this product, and saw the actual pic of it all over the net, i did a little research about it and look for a personal review of it. I saw that people prefer this over the predecessor that they're selling their half used product just to have this.

Personal Review:

-The bottle looks ravishing! It's coated with metallic pink finish that has a nail polish type applicator, which i find it easier to use. The product itself is somewhat creamy/milky, unlike benetint it has an inky texture. This is a product where less is most definetely more! A little of it goes a long way. The first time i tried using this, i put too much that i ended up looking like a clown.haha The pink effect of this blush fits to lighter skintones, it's buildable and imparts a nice glow after wearing for a couple of minutes. It also has a slight fragrance that smells really good on the cheeks. A really nice product but be cautious in applying, i tried putting 3 dots on my cheeks and it ends up the part on which i dotted becomes darker than the rest and it looks blotchy! Tried applying it in swipe but i ended up having a distinct stripe on my cheeks the whole day. So to make it even try putting in your fingers first before spreading it over your cheeks. It also strikes a nice balance between dewy and matte. So for people who has an oily skin be sure to dab a powder right after application. It also looks good on the lips, making it look natural with long lasting color that doesn't feel like wearing anything. The color of it makes you feel young, healthy & glowy.


Pros:

-The cream consistensy is a bit thicker and would give you enough time to spread it over your cheeks before it dries out.

-All natural look for both cheeks and lips.

- It really stays put all day.


Cons:

-The metallic finish on the bottle can chip off all over the place.

-The color of it doesn't compliment all skintones.


Overall Verdict:

-In all honestly, i personally like and prefer benetint rather than this. I'm not a big fan of a milky type and pinkish look since my natural blush is reddish tomato especially coming right after the gym. Though it's not my everyday blush, still it would look great in some occasions. Like the time when i want to have this barbie doll look, this blush would surely fit and suit my look and for my lips to get this baby pink pout. But i really admire this product as it provides just the right amount of color.

Product Review: Loreal Glam Shine Cream-Glam Red

I've never been a lipstick girl. I could count on my fingers the number of times that i applied lipstick in my whole life. And 85% of it was done by makeup artist to have my pictorial done and some are big occasions like debuts, proms and wedding parties. The reason, primarily is because i hated my lips! It's full and added from deep reds, sweet pink to barely there nudes would make it look too plump and would focus on my lips while wearing it. So i only have gloss and some lip moisturizer with me whenever i go. I really really hated my lips up to the point that i wanted it to be reduced by surgery..My mom already inquired and asked the price and how would be the procedure of it. But they advised us not to do it since it's one of my "assets".

Till one day, I was looking some stash of makeup on my mom's drawer and found a lipstick, i decided to try and put some on. I tried a Bright Deep Reds and to my surprised it looks good on me! So i immediately checked online to look for some lipstick and decided to try the Loreal Glam Shine Cream in Glam red. At first,i'm a bit hesistant to try using it while going out shopping. I'm not used to it since i always wore nude and sweet pink gloss over my lips. But i pulled it off by doing my makeup as simple as possible so it won't look too overdo.


Personal Review:

The silver box packaging of it stands out behind the counter, the lipstick itself is in a silver container with cute pink ring band between the bottom and the lid that makes it look elegant and classy. The product is glossy enough to make my lips appear soft and supple. It also provides all day hydrations that lasts for hours. The texture is creamy and rich, color is really pigmented that shines for hours. A combination of glossy and volume boosting effect really captures the heart of makeup addicts all over the world. It has a pleasant fruity smell that seems so addicting and would want to use it every given opportunity. What impressed me the most is that this wonderful product could conceal my chapped and dry lips because of it's creamy formula. It's staying power is pretty good, that i won't be needing to reapply time to time.

Tips:

-To make your lipstick lasts for long hours, apply lip liner first. That would surely help in making your lipstick stay put for long.

Available in 20 Shades:

Sweet Nude, Rose Crystal, Sensual Grenadine, Brown Attitude, Trendy Rose, Glam Red, X-treme Brown, Mauve Delight, Sexy Plum, Grape Juice, Sparkling Red, Hot Lilac, Charming Toffee, So Peachy, Golden Strawberry, Dream-me Candy, Boudoir Spice, Crazy Ruby and Soft Beige

Product Review: Faceshop Brightening Rice Cleansing Water

Hi ladies! as you all know that it's a must for everyone to take their makeup off after a long hours of wearing it..and of course before going to sleep!!!! I really can't see the importance of it before until one day i started to noticed clog pores and my skin is starting to break out! I used to sleep with my makeup on cause i'm so lazy to remove it...i know i know..it's a big No-No but can't really blame myself especially if there are times that i'm about to collapse on my bed and i don't have the strength to take it off. And so when i'm starting to look for some mild makeup remover on "Faceshop" i decided to try their Brightening Rice water.:) I love that line! I already bought their brightening facial foam.


They say:

-Formulated with the traditional rice water once used by woman of the korean royal court, this concentrated cleansing water gently removes makeup while softening skin.


Directions:

-Moisten Cotton pad and gently wipe over entire face. Rince thoroughly with warm water.


Pros:

-It really removes all my makeups and accumulated dirt and oil.

-It leaves my skin smooth and soft.

-The fragrance is nice, no funky smell.


Cons:

-The pump type packaging makes it really hard to control the amount to be put on the cotton..that lots of times it exceeds and the rest would go waste

-I can't put it in my overnight bag and must be displayed upright or else it would leak.


Oerall Verdict:

-I really love this product! it's perfect and it can be used daily coz it does contain natural and mild ingredients that won't irritate the skin. This makeup remover can be used only for mild makeup applications, and heavier than that would be really hard to remove it all..so they also have the "Brightening Rice Cleansing Oil" for removing heavy makeups.:) And since i'm not putting on a lot on my face, this would be just perfect for me. It's widely available and you won't be missing this stuff! Once you tried it, believe me..there will be a second time of purchasing it! A bottle would last you long since you won't be needing a lot to have your makeup removed, just a generous amount of it and off you go! Better learn to control the pumps otherwise you'll end up having a soaked cotton balls.


Tips:

-Swipe using cotton pads/balls in upward motion, cause doing it the other way around has the tendency of wrinkling your skin or the danger of getting it sagged.

Movie Review: Transformers 2:Revenge Of The Fallen

Me & my bf originally planned to watch the movie on some luxurious cinema, but since there's an announcement of a coming typhoon..we ended up watching it at a regular cinema that is near to my place. We watched the movie "Revenge of the Fallen" on the day of the opening. We managed to buy a ticket and was seated on our desired seat along with our favorite food to snack on.:)


Got this from movieweb
Synopsis:

The battle for Earth has ended but the battle for the universe has just begun. After returning to Cybertron, Starscream assumes command of the Decepticons, and has decided to return to Earth with force. The Autobots believing that peace was possible finds out that Megatron's dead body has been stolen from the US Military by Skorpinox and revives him using his own spark. Now Megatron is back seeking revenge and with Starscream and more Decepticon reinforcements on the way, the Autobots with reinforcements of their own, may have more to deal with then meets the eye.


Personal Review:

I think this sequel is better than the original. This movie is jam-packed with action and impressive display of special effects that leaves me gripping the edge of my seat. Some heavy explosions that blows stuff down and the shape shifting robots are absolutely feasts for the eyes! It's a real thrill for everybody to watch this highly-anticipated film that has dominated most of the cinema. I never expected it to be this good and for me to have my full attention on it since i'm not a fan of robots..but the concept of shape shifting robots really change my outlook on this movie. A 2 1/2 hours full of suspense, humour, sci-fi action, adventures and romance are all wrap up in one movie. I think it's better not to expect too much but rather enjoy every second of the movie and just let your imagination run wild after watching it rather than imagining what the outcome would be.:) A must-watch for everyone whose a Traansformer fans and people looking for some Big Budget Sci-Fi action movie.:)

Movie Review: Coraline

Coraline is a story about an 11 year old girl who moves into a new apartment with her parents. They were so busy wtih their stuff that they're already neglecting her. She was so unhappy coz her parents were intent and totally ignoring her. So with nothing to do, she explored the house and found a tiny door. She goes through the doorway and follows a passage to a house that looks just like her own home. She discovers an alternate version of her life. On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to her real life but only much better! There's even a mom-her other mom! and a dad called the other father. They look exactly like her real parents except they had buttons sewn in their eyes. In that world, everything is so perfect..her parents feed her and gives her anything she desires.. until one day her counterfeit parents tried to keep her forever, her dreams becomes a realistic nightmare and she must do something to get back home.

The story is based on a novel by Neil Gaiman and was directed by Henry Selicks. I had no intention on watching this until i heard that this movie is the same director of "Nightmare before Christmas" plus a 3D stop motion. As a fan of Henry Slick's previous movie, i decided to give this a try.

Well, the movie is filled with magic and cool effects that will surely keeps the audience entertained. I don't know about the target audience on this one, some scenes are quite frightening that children would piss in their pants! I would say that this is the most scariest animated film that I've watched. And it was so creepy that they have buttons as eyeballs?! but i really enjoyed the dark and the twisted images on this film, that somewhat caught my attention coz i always had a facination with that kind of things. This movie is not your average type of cartoons, Henry Selick's has taken this stop motion animation to a whole new level. This is a fantastic movie, script is well written and the story line is good. The voice actors were great especially "Dakota Fanning" who voiced Coraline. They really bring out the characters that the visual design is presenting on screen. I really wish i could watched it on 3-D cause it will definetely be an experience! An imaginative twisted tale that would not dissapoint viewers in all ages.
