May 5 it fast approaching and I'm like a kid who can't sleep from excitement! I'm finally going to see the place where my dearest Beauty Blogger BFF, Jheng, grew up. She'll be celebrating her birthday and she invited us for an oversrnight stay of good food, music and of course to see her march as her town's Reyna Elena. Amahhhhhzing!!

Other than that, I'm just so over the metro and eager for some laidback happenings. I want to de-stress myself from work and recoup my brain. I just want to be "sabaw" for two whole straight days laughing and having fun with the coolest and funniest girl I know!

But!!

There's a but,.. a big-ass one if you me...

I do hate packing. I always under and over estimate packing! There's always something I forget and there's always something that I bring which I barely use. It always happens. I jsut really never learned how to pack properly. Darn it!

Thankfully though, Mich of Cozy Nail Lounge in Libis sent me over this cute transparent pouch with lots of containers inside it.

  • Soap Dish
  • Steel Atomizer
  • Plastic Atomizer
  • Tube Pump
  • Powder Jar
  • Cream Jar
  • Gel Jar
  • Funnels and spatula



I certainly can't live without my vanity essentials. That's why this bag of containers will certainly help me minimize boo-boo's when packing.

What I plan to use this for?

  • Soap Dish - Half of Dove Beauty bar and Snoe White Antibacterial Brightening Citronella beauty bar
  • Steel Atomizer - Clinique Anti-Blemish Toner
  • Plastic Atomizer - alcohol
  • Tube Pump - Obagi-C Sunblock
  • Powder Puff Jar - My ever reliable baby powder
  • Cream Jar - Belo Prescriptive DLC Cream
  • Gel Jar - a little but of Perricone MD Acyl Gluthathione Cream




Phew! That definitely got a lot things off of my back!

...of buying something you like without having second thoughts or justifying your actions. :)







I was at Greenhills Shoppesville one day looking for a black outfit for a makeup gig when I saw this at a stall near what used to be Tickles, I just couldn't help myself... I went ahead and bought it. But boy was I happy to know it was only Php380. :)

I knew I had something good in my hands... a nice casual dress that has an amazing print that makes me look so thin and enhances the look of my boobies. It was a steal for the price I paid for it. LOVE!!

So the next time you see something you really like.. maybe it wouldn't hurt to take the risk and whisk it away. Isn't that what makes shopping fun?

But you know me, I usually don't make sense when it comes to my purchases.. I'm just here to enable you. :) That is, after all, what this blog is all about. :)

much love,
Shen

Nails are probably the least thing on my mind when I think about beauty and cosmetics. Although I know its always in the back of my mind that I need to attend to it every so often. Before I would just settle for the typical salon and bear with the noisy and busy atmosphere of it. But lately, I have been tasteful and really trying to engage myself in my nail pampering processes. I make sure that the places I go to have accessible locations, tranquil surrounding, skilled nail technicians and had more than nail grooming to offer. I mean, its not so often that I care for my nails... so for those times that I do, I think I should give them the best. Don't you agree?

One of those places I now consider a home away from home is Posh Nails in Greenhills (Connecticut St., right above Conti's).










They use OPI Products for some of their treatments.










Deep Dermal Treatment

The reason why I fell in love with Posh Nails, was because of the Deep Dermal Treatment. Its an anti-ageing treatment for your weary hands. The effects are immediate and no non-sense. They apply your the lotion on to the back of your hands with a brush, wrap it with a seran wrap and leave it on for about 30 minutes. After that, they will apply the grapeseed oil and massage it a little.

The results are amazing! The veins on my hands are protruding like crazy making me look aged than my years. With all the writing I do and then immediately washing my hands, I didn't realize how worn out my hands are.

But with this treatment, I was immediately shown the effects of it. My veins disappeared a little and it isn't protruding anymore. I was just amazed. And just in case some of you hates the hot wax of Paraffin, you can opt for this instead.








See the results? Hardly no green veins showing!

Addiction rating is crazily over the top!

Now on to other treatments, I got their Tea Scrub Treatment
Using OPI's best seeling scrub and lotion and definitely the client's favorite - Poshnails website.

The treatment will comprise of the following:
Hand - soak, scrub, manicure, massage
Feet - soak, spa, scrub, pedicure massage


Me getting scrubby-dub-dub. :)

\

Scrub stays on for a few minutes. I'm pretty much cozy in this position.


Nail cleaning will start from here on.


more cleaning.. :)


Then the nail polish color! :) colors, i mean!


Foot spa is really nice.. although i'm ticklish I love the massage and foot soak.


Tiny bubbles! In the water! :) hehehe!


chikahan galore


after foot spa, scrubby dub dub on my feet.. I love the tea slightly cucumber scent of this scrub.


Oh massage! The massage! :)


Happy vain client! :)


See, I told you it was colors. :)


Feeling like a kid again....


With my Nips (local M&M's)-inspired nail polish shades. :)
funny feet.. hehehe!


The shades I used are:
No Room for the Blues
That's Hot! Pink
Hot & Spicy
Plugged-in Plum

I super recommend to go ga-ga over the number of polishes they have, from nice neutrals to loud flamboyant colors.

And please please please give your hands some loving with the Deep Dermal.. it's so affordable at only P200!!

I am particular with their Greenhills branch because of the quiet surrounding. Plus they also have waxing treatments and very very skilled (good at removing dry skin) nail technicians.
Even up till now.. nearly a week from my visit, my nail polish is not yet cracking or chipping off. They also have Back Paraffin!

There's also a lot of restos surrounding the area like Conti's and Amici just in case you get hungry after your mani/pedi and spa.

much love,
Shen
