EYE SHADOW

Personal thought on these eye shadows:

Color pay-off is not as impressive compared to other brands, but this is the perfect palette for makeup beginners! Shadows are crease-proof and lasts all day (I tried it and it worked!) This is actually good to use for school/work. With this particular palette (“Precious”) you can switch from a day time makeup look to a night time makeup look! Don’t have any brushes? You can use the sponge tip applicator!!! I was able to do it! I did a video tutorial on it, and you can watch it here:

MASCARA

  • Long lasting double volume mascara is specially formulated to volumize lashes
  • Special applicator brush separates each lash without clumping

Personal thought on this mascara:

The L.A. Colors Double Volume mascara does a great job opening up the eyes! I love how it gives enough volume to my lashes (the more I coat my lashes the more they look fuller) No foul/pungent smell.

Enderun Rock City Fashion Show with Krave Minerale

It was so much fun to tag along with Trina, managing director of Krave Minerale Cosmeceuticals, to the Rock City Fashion Show held at Enderun Colleges last October 3, 2012. I haven’t worked with Krave for a couple of months due to conflicting schedules, and doing it again feels great!!!

DSC_0005

My model for that night was Nikita Conwi, the host of the fashion show. It was so cool how she told me she knew my sister Iza!!! What a small world. This woman is drop dead gorgeous. I loved making her up! Her features are really beautiful! We went for a rocker look to go with the theme of the show—that’s basically smoky eyes and nude lips!

DSC_0008DSC_0009DSC_0034DSC_0037

After Nikita, we worked on the male models’ makeup. All they needed was a bit of contouring and a slight flush on the cheeks

DSC_0011DSC_0022DSC_0019DSC_0020

Enderun has a LOT of talented and beautiful students/models. I loved watching them work together before the show!

Krave has a lot of new things in store for everyone! I can’t wait to share the news as soon as I can. :)

Pink Cuts Salon: NEW HAIR COLOR!

It’s that time of the year again! Getting a whole new hair color! My hair have grown so much over the past months and seeing the roots grow back and the my previous color fading made it imperative on my part to take action!

I remembered receiving this invitation from Marie Imperial [to her salon Cuts & Colours] I met Marie several times before! I saw her during the Lancome event, and she even signed up for the LuLu Makeup Workshop which we held a few months back! I rummaged through my stacked up envelopes and press kits and I decided to contact Marie for my much needed hair fix.

After a few exchange of messages, Marie recommended me to try out her newly opened salon named “Pink Cuts Salon”. Cut & Colours is now out of the picture! Pink Cuts Salon was also the nearest venue I could go to during that time, so it all fell together!

It was really sweet of Marie to let me take a friend with me to enjoy the whole salon experience even more! If you are an avid watcher of my recently launched VLOGTOBER series (in YouTube), you already know which friend I tagged along with! (Yes, it was April!)

Let me give you a tour of the beautiful salon… Labas pa lang sobrang ganda na! Who DOESN’T like pink? My first thought was, oh gosh this is the cutest thing ever!

DSC_0084DSC_0085

The lounging area looks absolutely divine! Look at those dainty pink walls and that huge baby girl bear! The cushions looks extra fancy, too!

DSC_0086DSC_0088

Pink Cuts Salon use only the best products for their clients. (seen in the photo: L’Oreal’s Mythic Oil)

Magazines to keep me busy! I love this particular magazine! It’s all about the hair!

It’s really cool because Sir Rene actually analyzed and studied my hair through my YouTube videos. I let him do his thing! I tried out something different this time! In this photo, the colorist, Bryan, starts parting my hair.

Look at those roots!

DSC_0203DSC_0205

Now this is the new part! HIGHLIGHTS! I have never gotten highlights before!

DSC_0208

Again, a team of experts working on my locks. They made sure each parting was perfect-o.

DSC_0212DSC_0214DSC_0216

While waiting, Marie handed over 2 vouchers of the newest treatment, BRAZILIAN BLOWOUT! Yes, this is the part where you say, “GIVEAWAY TIME!”

Easy mechanics: (only open to those who will be able to go to Pink Cuts Salon at St. Francis Square Mall)

  1. POST ON THEIR WALL: *tag my page* - "@makeupbysaytiocoartillero sent me! and then (EXPLAIN WHY YOU DESERVE TO GET A BRAZILIAN BLOWOUT TREATMENT!)
    Ex. "@MakeupbySayTiocoArtillero sent me! I deserve a Brazilian Blowout Treatment because my hair is a mess!!!"

Winners will be announced in 2 days—this is only an extension!

What is the Brazilian Blowout Treatment?

This is the most innovative and effective professional smoothing treatment in the world. Through the use of a Brazilian Super-Nutrient Complex and a proprietary polymer system, the Brazilian Blowout actually improves the condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle. The end result is smooth, healthy, conditioned hair with radiant shine.

Contains NO formaldehyde, entire treatment completed in just 90 minutes, no downtime! The minute you leave the salon, you can wash and dry your hair!

Results last up to 12 weeks!

Back to my hair…

This halo-type of heater stayed above me for like 15 minutes. They “cooked” my highlights, I believe.

DSC_0246DSC_0248

Do you see the highlights?!

DSC_0255

April finished waaaay before I did. Look at that gorgeous woman!

DSC_0260DSC_0266DSC_0267

Heeeeeeey! Look at them highlights! Sir Rene finished by styling.

DSC_0285

Sir Rene trimmed and layered by hair by the way, because he thought the volume of my hair is already weighing me down.

DSC_0325

The happy couple!!! :)

DSC_0326DSC_0338

PHOTO OPS!

DSC_0342DSC_0347

The amazing people behind my gorgeous hair!

DSC_0349

Thank you Pink Cuts Salon!!!

DSC_0352

Best salon date ever!!! I’m so happy I got to spend it with April, who, by the way, just celebrated her birthday! :)

DSC_0364

I give Pink Cuts Salon a 10/10 rating. No bias, no anything. I am honestly super in love with this salon. We got out at 12 midnight, by the way! They kept the salon open until we finished! April and I had a great time. The staff was super warm and accommodating! We were laughing all throughout the night! You’ll know why when you pay them a visit! Ask for Sir Rene and Bryan! ;)

OH AND I JUST WANNA SAY, they have magic massaging hands!!! They give the most amazing massages ever (while waiting for the color to set in)
