‘Kabayo’ Look

September 17, 2009 in beauty, personal by bena | 7 comments

Hey everyone! I’m now back! As you know my one month off is finally over. In any case, I haven’t forgotten you guys. I have so many overdue contents here and I’ll promise to make it up to you. Backtrack posts of my hiatus. Goodluck! I have so many chicas to share with you all. Of course, all about my not so fabulous bayot life. Talking about my new mane look, my sister’s wedding which I’ll make a separate post and some boring stuff. Hehehe.. But first, I had my hair trimmed for my sis’ wedding. Quite frankly, I was a bit hesitant of doing it but I’m left with no choice than to have it cut. So I bid goodbye to my fly away girly hair and went back to my regular tibo-chi look ala Amy Perez.

Transformation from this (huhuhuhu..)

to extreme shagging… (Ouch)

and finally the ‘kabayo’ look.. *whine* Hahaha

Voila! So how do you like my new look? Pwede na bang pang-pre?.. LOL! Yuck! For the record, it was my longest hair ever. Oh well as Martin Luther said, ‘The hair is the richest ornament of women.’ Pwede na rin.. vi-a-v!

Defy age

May 28, 2009 in beauty by bena | No comments

Age is definitely inevitable and for beauty conscious people out there who desire to maintain their youthful look are sure to be going gaga with all the lists of age defying beauty products. Who would not? Physical beauty is in the eyes of the beholder as one can tell. But I’m happy to be not a camper of the die hard club of buy-beauty-creams for this and that. It’s way expensive for me to maintain. Besides my face is too young for that as well and I only stick to the basic wash, tone and moisturize. My daily skincare regimen which really works for me.

Funny how my mom has all these sorts of eye cream, neck cream, face cream, night cream and so on and so forth to maintain her youthful glow. But duh! You can’t defy age noh. Hehehe.. I even jokingly told her to undergo botox instead of buying various beauty creams which can be really expensive in total. But she prefers it that way instead. My only piece of advice to her and to anyone of you is to check first product info over the web if you can on face, eye and neck cream reviews before trying it to avoid any waste of time and money and unexpected beauty disasters. Dang! Beauty is so darn expensive when you’re aging noh?.. Tsk.. Tsk.. Tsk.. voila v!

Attention to all The Body Shop lovers! They’re on a mega mark down sale on selected items from core shower gels, lotion, make-up and my all-time favorite Cassis Rose collection. I never knew out about this not until I went to Ayala mall yesterday to run some errands. You know I’m limiting my mall visits lately to avoid spooning my savings account. Ha! Anyway, it’s a nationwide sale to all The Body Shop outlets. They slashed 50-70% off from the original tag price for your pleasure.

I’m not really an ultimate Body Shop fan but I like some of their products most especially the shower gels and lotion. I like most their Olive shower gel and Oil mist spray. The scent is so relaxing and not tangy like most of their fruit collections.

As for me, I bought the Cassis Rose Body Lotion for a 50% off discount. I love its sweet feminine smell. Feeling ko magkakaBF na ako this time kapag ginamit ko to ng madalas. Charing! Hahaha! vi-a-v!

Stress has a very bad habit of showing on our skin. It’s an undeniable fact. With all the busy workloads we get in the office plus our unhealthy lifestyle, we are never too far of getting a dull human coat. What’s even worse is when someone unconsciously reminds how dry-looking we’re turning to. Ouch!

Hearing such comments is just so unacceptable! It shrinks us into molecules and just wished to be unnoticed! Hard isn’t? But do you know the secret to obtaining that enchanting glow on our skin? It’s for me to know people and for you to find out! Squeeze me and I’ll spit it este spill it! Go! LOL!

This is actually no big secret, really. It’s simply having this beauty regimen of washing your skin with basic facial cleanser that matches your skin type and applying an alcohol-free toner before delivering yourself into a snooze. Just that! You don’t really need to splurge into expensive brands to obtain a clean and healthy skin. And adding up to this basic is the discipline of what you eat as well. If you’re a gloton like me, try avoiding fatty and oily intakes. Keep it lean and drink a lot of water. Remember H2O is the universal solvent.. it does the magic ya’know!

Well as for me, maintaining a clear and healthy skin is effortless in just 2 snaps. Before going to bed, I make sure I wash my face with Neutrogena Deep Clean Foaming Cleanser which thoroughly removes dirt and oil and leaves this refreshing feel on my face. Then I stroke on Neutrogena Alcohol-Free Toner to remove impurities and recondition my skin for a clean and soft look. It’s my 2 simple steps to revitalize my ever exposed outer layer back to its natural radiance… in just 7 days.. Hahaha!
