another one to cross off my checklist + vacation?!

I finally got myself a Speedy 30! After dinner last night I asked my boyfriend, if we can check out Duty Free Galleria just to look around, that's the ONLY way I can get him to come in with me into the Louis Vuitton boutique there (Yeap, he hates those stuck up SA's that just stare you down). Anyways, I know I just got a bag M.T.O. like a week ago which costed $1,640 but that's his Christmas (and advance Valentines & My birthday & our 7th Anniversary) gift to me (which he insisted&promised to get but I probably wont even get it til 3-6 months later) the Speedy is one to myself. I feel like I deserve it coz I work hard and I am responsible with my bills : D I know I know this bag is so common, but it's also a timeless piece...it was stylish back then & it's stylish right now & it's probably going to be stylish in the years to come. Of course he was kinda upset, coz he already had spent so much on the one he got me and then I go and spend another $725. But I just had to HAVE it, sorry babe.

I paid off his all credit card bills and I might get him the wallet he wants from LV or rims for the Lexus for Christmas, Valentines, His Birthday & our Anniversary LOL! We couldn't get each other Christmas gifts on time coz we spent all our mula buying for our Godchildren, family & friends. But it's ok, better late than never, and I love him even if he didnt have a gift for me.

Cheesin' with my new bag!

I can't wait ti finally meet you!

My boyfriend & I are planning to take a vacation to California (& Vegas & wherever else) to visit some family & friends but mainly for the experience. I have never been to the U.S. and have left my island twice in my life (to Philippines) and both times were very very long ago... 1992 & 1999. We have no set date yet but I wna go sometime during our birthdays in April, do ya'll think thats a good time? And also make suggestions on places to visit, sights to see, things to do etc. I wna make the most of this vacay since the fare from Guam is suuuuper expensive and I probably wont go back for a while : D see you next post!

got my brows did, mac haul + EkiLove package

I haven't been in the mood to wear makeup lately. My mood was just one factor, another one is because I just had my eyebrows embroidered/tattooed towards the end of December (the 30th to be exact). So its gna be pretty hard to maneuver foundation around them.

I have been debating for thee longest time whether or not I should go forth with it...I seeked advice from friends and family and of course most of them disgreed. I have naturally light haired brows and since i've been plucking them since the 6th grade they're now sparse and thin. I find it a hassle to have to fill 'em in all the time and be careful not to get them smudged and what not. I was watching flymamaL's youtube channel and I adored her brows. I asked her if she had 'em done...turned out she fills them in everytime but she mentioned about getting it embroidered. I was like "what the hell is that?" so, (when in doubt) I Googled it. Hahah. Its supposed to look more natural/less harsh and its semi-permanent. Its a different technique and ink so it does not change to that yucky green-ish color (thank god). I told my cousins about it since I dont have sisters... and they too, since it runs in my mom's side of the family, have light haired/sparse brows. I was too PANTY to try it out first. So my younger cousin did hers first and I waited for full results which took about a month and a half to two months to fully heal until I did mine. And let me tell you it hurt like HELL! They do put numb cream but since thats only on the surface it didnt really do much. It helped when she first stabbed (for a lack of a better word) me, coz it just felt like plucking your brows but the pain gradually increased. But I sucked it up coz after all 'Beauty Is Pain'. An hour or so of pain and results will last about 15 (or more) years vs. filling them in all your life. After the session was done it didnt even hurt/sting, it was like normal but you still have to be careful lol. Anyways...I had my 2nd session/re-touch today and OMG it hurt more than the first time. I dont mean to scare you but its the truth. But if thousands of other people get it done you can too (if you want too)! I will post up pictures of it once its fully healed so dont worry. Unless you wna see 'em so bad then just let me know.

Well on to the good stuff. I know I said I haven't been in the mood to put on makeup because of my brows, but towards the end of two weeks after getting it done the first time they were kinda healed so I started playing again and it got me into buying more makeup. I wanted to get the MAC #109 brush from my counter but they were out so I ordered online and it got here in less than a week. I also ordered the upstarts:well prepared set. I am in love with the base and the translucent powder. and it comes with a travel size fix + and cleanse off oil which is just tooo cute.

I originally only ordered one Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion but I guess the sender didnt know she had already sent me one and sent another. Yay me!

I also purchased from J. Rose's blog sale and got the two blush pans. L-R: Frankly Scarlet & Dame.

MAC #109 brush. Perfect for putting on liquid foundies. I love it!

And I know you all know who this package is from...aside from the title, its always wrapped with love, care and its very KAWAII. Its from Eki! She's the sweetest, I won her November customer appreciation giveaway! And im surprised coz I never really expect to win anything... I won the Gucci Envy Me perfume and she sent me some extras tooo.

I love the earrings! And I cant wait to try the mixed berry mask once my brows will allow me! Thank you sooo so so so so much EKI! I love them all!

fotd, mac haul, new blog sale items

Dang! I haven't done this in a while...let alone update. I havent really been in the mood to even put makeup on for the past month or so, except for eyeliner blush and lipgloss, simple. I've been so busy with my christmas shopping trying to buy things before they run out and catching up with all the sales going on. But now that I have crossed mostly everyone's name on my list I can slow down a bit. And just recently our Macy's opened up a M.A.C. counter and the price is nothing compared to the one that was already open at the duty free shop. The latter was taking on the asia pacific prices while the one at macy's is U.S. So its cheaperrr, I know its probably nothing new to the U.S. residents though hah! And I love this new counter because they carry more products and have more selections to choose from. So I wore this look to go crazy shopping at M.A.C. well to me its crazy coz I never bought this many things at once. Im sure I left out some but I just couldnt think at the time I took the pics coz I had already used them before that.
