Majolica Majorca Lash King Collection Launch | Visiting the King's Royal Chamber




A week ago, I was invited to an intimate event at the 17th floor of EDSA Shangri-la Hotel. I have always loved Shangri-la (they have the best service among all Hotels I've stayed in Manila). So I did my best to drop by even if I had loads of work to finish. :)

The event was held by one of my current favortie brand, Majolica Majorca. The invitation says that I was invited to the Royal Chamber and the Lash King awaits my presence. How can I pass up such a whimsical event, right?


It was the launch of Majolica Majorca's latest makeup Collection, Lash King. The release of what they claim to be the best and the only mascara you will ever need to use, Lash King. There is also Blood On, a lip and cheek rouge that appears quite bloody on the post but amazing soft pink on the cheeks and lips. And lastly, the release of MJ's newest fragrance, Majoromantica Secret Joker.

The fabulous suite of EDSA Shangri-la seemingly transforned into a magical bedchamber filled with the Lash King collection and tons and tons of sweet! I swear, I would have taken everything home (including the bed linens and the Tarot Card Reader!). Yes, everything was so fancy.



The suite seemed as if I was indulging an afternoon with a Queen! Cards were strewn all over the room, there were products for us to try, sweets I couldn't stop eating and books that guided us with all Majolica Majorca collections.






The pastry chef od ESDA Shangri-la specifically picked the desserts and sweets that were served that day. I love the choco bar with yogurt dipping that I think I had 4 of it! I was able to eat a red velvet cake, macaroons de paris, the sweet sugary concoction on the above photos and more! I was on sugar high the whole time I was there!




Had it not been a bad manners and well not the least proper thing to do, I would have taken home desserts andd all the materials you see above! Hahaha!





There was also a fun magician to did magic trick for us! He's so good I forgot that it was a trick! I was very impressed.


Cathy and the team of Majolica Majorca made this event possible and I thank her for always inviting me to Majolica Majorca events.



The beautiful ladies of LuxAsia.


I have already provided my review and rave of the Lash King Mascara so I hope you can check that outs.

I am currently reviewing Blood On Cheek and Lip Color. Will let you know how you feel about this product!

Events like this are hard to come by these. The well-thought of details are amazing! I love that its intimate and that I was able to enjoy a few moments with fellow bloggers and still got to talk to Cathy about the products and our lives.

Having worked in PR, I have a new different and a better appreciation of events pulled off like by brands. I can see how much effort was given. I do miss being behind the scene and miss working the floor during event hours.

Thanks so much, Majolica Majorca Philippines, Cathy and the rest of LuxAsia who entertained all of us!


Lash King Collection is now available!!

I am a Beauty Blogger But a Strong Person First #FACT



I don't get why some people don't understand what beauty blogging really is! I mean, seriously, how much IQ does one need to understand what beauty blogging is? I have very young readers and they understand what I do! Tsk!

When a particular troll (who wish to think that he/she will be as successful at Fashion Pulis) said that we (me and other famous beauty bloggers) are beauty bloggers, but not beautiful... Take note: he/she even included a #FACT. I can only shake my head and think how stupid can this person get to even "ride" on whatever popularity we have just so he/she can piss us off and gain readers. Seriously.

It's crazy. But more stupid than crazy. Do you agree?

I asked back then what you what a beauty blogger is and you have shared with me wonderful answers. Criteria that I hope I am meeting for you to keep on checking out my beauty blog.

#FACT is... I know I'm not beautiful or pretty. Not fantastically so.. but I've got my looks. I have a man who tells me everyday I am beautiful and for me, that's enough. I don't need every Tom, Dick and Harry to assure me that I am. :) Hahaha!

For many of us, a comment like this may already make us feel little, ashamed. NOT ME!

Confidence and belief in one self is the key. One person or even make them several does not make the person that I am. I am not the sum total of what one person thinks of me...

If you are a girl who's been told that you're not good enough, there is always that person inside you who will disagree!

Believe that little voice inside you.. that's the only thing that you should listen to! Because that's the faith you have in you that nobody can take away.

I am not here to talk about what makes a beauty blogger. You, my faithful and loyal friends and readers know exactly what we do here.

I am just here, to tell you that it doesn't matter how many people tell you you're not pretty, sexy or smart enough.

Nobody has the right to hurt you emotionally or physically. You can make them pay by shunning them and throwing a mirror at them to take a look at themselves first before mouthing hurtful words.

It is still you who have the last say on how you wish to see yourself or how to be treated.

I hope I inspire you always to be who you want to be, pursue your dreams and be happy! :)

#PAK!

Makeup Review | K Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner 1 Day Tattoo in Super Black and Deep Brown



K Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner 1 Day Tattoo
I've been using the K Palette 1 Day Tattoo Liner for nearly a month now and I am just loving it. And nobody is more surprise than me!

I have to admit that at first I wasn't too keen on using a brush tip liquid liner. Base on experience brush liners, I didn't quite enjoy it so much. I have a very shaky (read: pasmado) hands. And even when I've got gel liners and pencil liners down to T, liquid ones still scare me.

But like everything else in this journey to beauty discovery, I find myself swallowing fear by just trying it out and literally "winging" it!

Hahaha!

And guess what, I can do it after all! Though I can't still consider myself as an expert like other beauty bloggers out there, I think I say that I'm getting there...

Most of you know that I'm hardly one to deviate from Western brands but as days and months go by, I'm been continuously introduced to Japanese brands and I can't deny how fabulous they are! No wonder the beauty industry in Asia is booming! They can't help in giving us quality-filled cosmetics!

How does this work? 

Unlike other liquid liners I tried, the K Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner 1 Day Tattoo is no nonsense. Upon opening, this one writes instantly. It's like a calligraphy pen, if you ask me. This can definitely be a great tool in creating avant garde looks like flowers, filgeree or other designs you can think of! You can even draw a fake tattoo and fool your parents!

Does it really stay for a day?

Yes it does! To be honest, it was that promise that made me want to try out this product!

At work, I can't always be applying eye shadows. But eyeliners, I needed as it makes my eyes appear more wide awake. When I started to use this without a primer or base, I was surprise on how well the K palette stays put from 9 in the morning til about 10 in the evening!

Best of all it's easy to remove! No need for makeup removers even! Just my facial soap and viola! It's gone! Amazing!

It also doesn't budge or stain my upper lids like pencil or gel liners do!

Here are some sample looks that I did using the K Palette Real Lasting Liners in Super Black and Deep Brown.

There is just so many things to love about this liner:
  • It lasts all day!
  • Doesn't stain the lids (no transfer or marking)
  • Doesn't budge
  • Easy to remove
  • Utterly pigmented
  • Can be used for avant garde looks
  • Easily applies
  • Lasts a long time!
  • Wing tip or cat eyes are easier to create (even if you're a newbie!)
The only downside I see with this is that it needs getting used to. Especially if you're a first time user.

Another upside, it's easy to practice with this product. Actually, I would advise to start with this one already and everything that'll come your way will be easy to use!

Yes! I definitely recommend this! And not because it's given to me. I would buy this in a heartbeat even if it's a bit more expensive than other liners out there.

Hello, no staining and lasts all day! It's the perfect liner for oily lids gals like me!
