SCARLET AND POST ACNE TREATMENT FOTD

SCARLET AND POST ACNE TREATMENT FOTD

Hello once again!!! :)

What can I tell you? Well, let me start with this one...

I truly am happy and excited about the result that I continue to get in terms of treating my spots that has been a great agony for about 5 days (as mentioned previously on my older post). Now, I won't have to worry about it (touch wood!)

I jsut thought I'd share with you a post treatment FOTD to show you how much it has cleared my skin in 2-3 weeks after starting with the treatment.

Scarlet by Estee Lauder

I love this lipstick!

I've used my old Clinique eye palette in Spice to create my neautral eye make up

Spots all gone!!! Woo hooo!!!!

I've already got a few red lipstick but I'm still on my mission to find a red one with a hint of orange in it. Suggestions anyone? It'll be much appreciated... Cheers!!!

TTFN!!!

Hello again guys!

On my way home after dropping my little boy at school, I popped in Boots to grab some body moisturizers and my eyedrops when I noticed that Estee Lauder was offering gifts again! So I went to the counter and grabbed couple of items to get the gift. Well, not that I'm sort of beauty addict in a budget, I might as well take the opportunity to grab a few freebies. No, it wasn't an excuse to shop, I really need them ;)

The beauty consultant was wering this and I was like... 'I want, I want, I want!!!

This is a great stuff!



My fabulous gift and purchases

Gorgeous!!!

I love this too! It's a generous size for a gift at 15ml

Beautiful colours of lip palette

Pretty stuff

ESTEE LAUDER HAUL

ESTEE LAUDER HAUL

Hello guys!!! I hope you all are having fabulous summer. It has been hot where I am for the past few weeks now and it's getting a little too much for me. Working in the middle of hot weather has been a little comfortable whether working during the day or night. As much as I am extremely excited about going back to the Philippines to see my family and friends, I am also dreading the fact that it is going to be very very hot. I remember going to Orlando, Florida in August 2004 where I ended up crying on the gutter whilst we were queuing to get on one of the rides in the Enchanted Kingdom. I cried like a baby because it was too hot for me and believe me, it wasn't a pretty sight... I was soooo embarassed!

Anyway, enough of me moaning... let's get on with this thing ;) Well... well... well... I can't tell you how excited I am about posting these products. I absolutely adore them and I've been so excited about sharing them to you in the past month that I have not posted. Sorry about that guys...

As I have mentioned on one of my older posts, I have been looking for a lifting serum that I could use as an alternative to my La Mer Lifting Face Serum and guess what I found...! Advanced Night Repair Protective Recovery Complex by Estee Lauder. Although I've been seeing this for a while in shops and has been getting this with my previous Estee Lauder purchases where I got gift packs, I've never thought of trying it out until I read on my beauty mag a recommendation... Apparently, according to Anastacia Achillos, who's perfected Gwyneth Paltrow's skin, "This radiance-booster is legendary among skincare addicts as you get instant results". As some of you who have read my previous post, you probably have already worked out that I'm mad about skincare. So, I raided a few vanity bags where I stuff all the cosmetic items that I don't use and found a few 7ml bottles. A 7ml bottle lasted me over a week and used it both morning and night time. Really is a great value and I was amazed with the result. I'm not saying that this is as good as La Mer Face Lifting Serum but for the price, which is about 3x more expensive than Advanced Night Repair, there is a competition. I'll be reviewing this soon. Please bear with me :)

Anyway, please feel free to browse through my little haul :)

I use this during the night after cleansing my face with La Mer Tonic and before applying my moisturizer. Apparently, our skin repairs from 11pm antil 3am and this suppose to accelerate that process according to the beauty consultant at the Estee Lauder couter.

I use this during the day after cleansing my face and before applying my moisturizer. I love the velvet feeling that I get as I apply my moisturizer on top of this.

My ever generous gift pack

My new skincare potions plus gifts ;)

As I'm running out of my Creme de la Mer face moisturizer, I thought I'd try their Time Zone and Advanced Night Repair Eye Recovery Complex to replace my La Mer Eye concentrate. I will be reviewing these products in the near future too... Promise! :) xxx

Till next post... TTFN...!

FOTD: BROWN

GOOD FRIDAY FOTD: Are we suppose to wear make up on Good Friday?

I originally planned to take my little one to Nottingham Castle to visit uncle Robin (yes, the one in tights ;)) (Hahahaha! Sis Nikki!) but its started raining soon as we stepped out the door. (Grrr!). So I took my little one for a quick lunch at Pizza Hut (it was a nightmare waiting to get served... it was packed!) hoping that it would stop as we finished eating but it didn't. I looked at my little one's disappointed face and I asked him if he would want to do something else since it wasn't a good idea to take him to the castle when it was raining but he just pouted :(... So, I had to think of something else and remembered they're showing Monster vs Alien in town on 3D so I asked him if he would want to watch indeed and his face instantly brightened up... bless his little heart :) Anyway, we both enjoyed the film but I had to stop him from squeeling as he was a little too loud. It wasn't only him who reacted that way, I must admit... the other kids were doing it too :).

Anyway, as I never dare leave my house without make up on, I've decided to wear somthing neutral and as I was deciding which make up and colours to wear, I saw my Versace lipstick and lipgloss in my train case and wore them. Here was I came up with...

Can I just say that as I was putting my make up on, I sort of revived my 90s when brown lipstick was 'IN'. Anyone in the Philippines would probably remember it... not unless you were about 8 at that time hahahaha! I'm that old as you can see hahahaha!

Again, my photos came out to be on the pale side... Grrr! When do I get it right?

This FOTD will probably get slated and I might end up regretting that I posted this but... hey ho!

For my eyes, I wore Too Faced Eye Shadow Dou in George and Wheezie

On my cheeks, I wore Too Faced Dou-Sided Blush Compact in Creme Brulee (Both from my last year's make up collection)

On my lips, I wore Estee Lauder lipliner in Mocha Writer, Versace Senusal Glam Lipstick, topped with Versace Wet Cream Lipgloss
