Good news to all Taft students/coffee lovers!!!! :)

Just a while ago i was passing by Seattle's Best Coffee ( the one along College of Saint Benilde main campus) after class, i noticed the baristas outside and promoting the Buy 1 Take 1 promo they're having, and as soon as i heard the they have the promo it got me interested!!! there was NO LONG LINE.


  • It really started yesterday and it'll end tomorrow May 29! (DON'T FORGET TO GET ONE TOMORROW) it's a 3-day event.
  • only at Taft branch!
  • The promo is from 12-2pm as i recall (not so sure about the 12) and you can get any drink from there Javakula selection except the Coffee Jelly which was kinda sad. but anyhow!! it's still good! 
  • You could choose a different drink on your take 1 and a different size too!
  • The amount you pay would be the higher amount as always. 
  • The drinks from the Javakula selection are: (the ones i remember)
    •  Double Chocolate Mint Javakula
    • Orange White Chocolate (sounds really interesting)
    • Java Chip
    • Javanilla
    • Mocha 
I got the Double Chocolate Mint because I'm a big fan of MINTY flavors! :)

and here's my reciept! I only paid for the higher price which was the Double Chocolate Mint! :)

GRAB THE OPPORTUNITY TOMORROW IF YOU HAVEN'T!

OMG nail polishes that i got and MORE! :)

So just recently i got these polishes and other nail art stuff for FREE. :) so i don't really know how much they are in stores... but i'm sure they are pretty affordable~

let's start with the polishes:

 From left to right:

  • Gossip (MINT.)
  • Prom Queen (lilac color)
  • Bunny (super cute name for a polish, more on the cotton candy pink)
  • Bikini (more on the dark pink)
  • Salsa (now this is the reddess that it can get!)
  • Jive (love this one! i don't have any polish similar to this)
  • Gold Digger (really looks like gold with a little shimmer in the polish itself)
I actually tried every single one of these and have them captured on photo but it doesn't come out the way i wanted it to and just doesn't give much justice to the polishes. :( but i assure you they all look great!



These ones are me so-called enhancers! :)
Lets again start from left to right:

  • Colorless (of course this is essential)
  • Matte Potion (very very useful because you wouldn't want to buy every color in matte polish)
  • Strobe ( it has these plastic looking bits and pieces that would go very well with a plain dark polish)
  • Disco Ball (this is similar with the Strobe but is has more shine to it with green and gold bits)
  • Champagne (a very very light and pale pink)
  • Tiara (similar with Champagne just that its in blue)
  • Nude (i have been wanting a nude polish but i just didn't know which shade to choose and this is perfect because it just says nude! no more no less!! )
Other things i got!!


 Simple glitters in: Green, Gold,Pink, Light Pink, Light Blue, Orange, Silver,Red to add to your nail arts!! :)



I also got these brushes for a more intricate details for my nail arts!! (been wanting theseee!!!!)


More dotters for meee!! ( I've already got like 8 dotters now!) :>

THAT'S EVERYTHING I GOT!!! HOPE YOU ENJOYED. :)

DIY nails using the Sally Hansen salon effects!


School starts for me next week so i planned on getting my nails done today since its already long and it doesn't really look good without polish!! So let's get started!

Materials i used:
                           
  • Sally Hansen salon effects polish strips (these makes life so much easier!)
  • BK base coat (2 for 90php)
  • BK orange polish (2 for 50php)
  • BK top coat (2 for 90php)
But inside the Sally Hansen box, i got:
                              

  • 16 Nail sticker strips in different sizes.
  • Mini file
  • Buffer
  • Cuticle stick
First things first!! always put a top coat before applying polish because it really helps your nails be healthy! especially when you get your nails done frequently like i do and finish it off with your top coat... then leave one fingernail unpolished where you want your nail sticker to go.
                                  
To put on nail sticker, just follow these simple steps!
                       
The finish product!!! and my nails for the week.. :)

                                 

IMPORTANT REMINDER: DO NOT PUT TOP COAT ON YOUR NAIL STICKER.

Loreal Ombre Kit in Feria review on Asian black hair!

This is my first ever blog post!!! so i wanted to talk about how i've always wanted to try to ombre my hair! but getting it to a lighter shade wasn't my first option... i wanted to do it aqua! like this:
but then i consulted salons and they said these kinds of hair wont last me very long... around a month and my hair would turn to white because of the bleach that will be used but i didn't lose hope! i researched more about having ombre hair and i came across The L'oreal Ombre Kit! 
My mom went to New York and so i asked her to buy me this! since it's not available in the Philippines!!! (what a shocker) I got it for medium to dark brown hair.

The box includes:
  • shimmering lightening creme
  • conditioning shampoo
  • expert brush (which i forgot to include in the picture)
  • shimmering developing creme
  • shimmering bleaching powder
  • the instructions of course!!


So this is the effect it left on my hair after i let it stay for about 40 minutes! i have black hair and so at first i thought it wouldn't really work out because all the reviews i read they all had at least dark brown hair, and nothing beats black hair!! but gladly it worked for me!!!


I really love how it turned out!!! It also didn't do any damage to my hair as much as i'm concerned and it certainly didn't made my hair dry specially on the ends. 

Facts:
  • Make sure to NOT close the bottle for a long time. i was too lazy to read and UNDERSTAND the instruction so i left the bottle closed and it burst. i had to clean the floor and the mirrors of out bathroom. :(
  • The shampoo/conditioner smells soooo good!!!! <3
  • Never leave the substance on your hair for more than 45 min!!!!! (i was paranoid with this a lot~)
  • PLANNING ON REPURCHASING THIS IF ANYONE IS GOING TO THE US SOON! :>
