Art Store Find! Blending Brushes!

Brushes! How hard is it to find a decent brush in a good price? i know some brands that have cheap priced brushes but the thing is i still don't have enough for it lol. So what's the best solution to get makeup brushes for cheaper price? Go to your local Art store!

I went to National Bookstore and went to the art section, browsed some brushes and i saw some perfect brushes that i can use for make up! Here are some of the 3 i saw:


Pentel 6,8 and 10.

They weren't shaped like that when i bought them, i wasn't able to take a picture before i shaped them! I cut the hair to form a tapered blending brush look and it works really good!


I love how their handles are long and i also love that for less than 70 pesos i already have 1 blending brush! Pentel 10 costs about 64.50 pesos, i forgot how much the other's costs though but i know they are still available at National Bookstore! Go check them out and if you like i'll do a video on how i trimmed the brush hair to make them really good blending brushes!

I actually have a makeup tutorial using this brushes:




Hope you guys enjoyed this post! Let me know if you have some cheap brush ideas thanks!

I just recently uploaded a new youtube video, it's a review of my Victoria Secret Ultimate Supermodel Makeup Kit given to me by my fiancee's mom! i hope you all enjoy it! let me know! ^_^





e.l.f. Studio Powder and Stippling Brushes Review

I am sick today and i was a bit cranky earlier. Is it just me or i just want to feel extra taken cared of when i'm sick? Cause if it's just me then i am crazy, if not then thank God hallelujah i'm still sane lol

Anyway it's not that i really wanna blog about today, i wanna blog about 2 of E.L.F.'s Studio Line Brushes


They are 2 of my new brushes for my brush collection. They are gifts from my hubby. So before anything else, i want you girls to read the description from the website.

e.l.f. Studio Powder Brush

This new anti bacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. studio brush!
-Creates a professional sculpted look
-Full coverage color
-Use for powder or blush for perfect contouring
*Vegan Friendly 


e.l.f. Studio Stipple Brush

This new antibacterial, synthetic haired Taklon brush is softer and more absorbent and can be used with wet or dry products. Be a professional makeup artist and create a flawless look with this e.l.f. Studio brush! 

The layered bristles create a soft airbrushed look that's perfect for applying foundation or adding color definition to cheekbones or highlighting with soft layers. Use this brush with any liquid or powder face product such as foundation, blush or bronzer to build your coverage from sheer to heavy.

So! that's the description from the website! Let's see what i think!


The powder studio line brush is a sort of like a flat top brush! It's very dense and good for most stuff like buffing liquid and powder foundation, packing mineral foundation for more coverage, for bronzer and blushing! i love it! i mostly use mine for buffing my liquid foundation and using it with my finishing powder! I don't use it for contouring though since i have a different brush for that :P


The stippling brush is not dense as the powder brush is. I have never owned any other stippling brush to compare it with so this are just my first thoughts. It's kind of hard to use it since it's flimsy, i always thought/expected it would be a little more dense that that, it's  good for liquid foundation and for blushes. I've heard people using it with cream brush but since i am not so much a fan of heavy cream blush pots i don't really own one, well not just yet. I'll let you all know how it works once i get one.

For design, like the long black handle is so sophisticated. It kind of reminds me of Marrionaud brushes that i am crazy for, but that's another blog story lol. 

So basically given the circumstances that they are really cheap i love 'em! I'm going to hand it to e.l.f. that they do good brushes! Like most of their brushes are amazing! But for star categories i would give the powder brush 5/5 and the stippling brush a 3/5. I will be getting another powder brush for my purse and i will be looking for a new stippling brush, Sigma perhaps!

Pretty Little Ladies

I actually just came back home after a very very long day! I met up with my friends Dianne and Paula at SM North Edsa. It was not my first time going there alone (i had to meet up with them there since they live near that mall) but it's been a long long long time since i was there; think the last time i was there was way back 4 years ago, i was there for a cosplay shoot.



Before i got there there were so many things that happened to me like i got lost going to the MRT Station, i kind of sort of went down the jeepney way before i could reach the MRT station so i had to use a flyover to get there which was so scary for me and i was wearing like 4 inches of wedge!!! It was so hard climbing up and down an old flyover. I felt really bad since i was tried to help this old lady with a kid with her and kind of included her on getting lost which was honestly not my intention :(



Anyway when i got to trinoma mall (After a grueling 3 hour travel) Dianne picked me up and we went to SM North Edsa cause we still need to meet up with Paula. We went to Precious Hearts Romance to look for pocket books. Dianne got some but i didn't, i was saving my money to get some other books and i am trying hard to save up for a new camera.


When Paula came we all went to KFC and got some lunch since me and Dianne haven't eaten lunch yet. We stayed there talking and eating, just having really fun conversations till we finished our food and we took some pictures



After that i don't know we decided to get some tea so we went to trinoma and get some delicious Happy Lemon. 


I got the Passion Fruit with QQ Jelly if i remembered it correctly! It was sooo good! It reminded me of a cocktail drink, no alcohol of course! We talked while we were drinking about random stuff, but we had to leave since Dianne has a job and i wanted to go home before rush hour.


Even though we only met for about 4 hours i still had great fun! I just hoped we still had more time but there is always a next time :)

Charm Bracelet Watch: Travel the World

I want to share with you guys an old purchase that i can't leave home without! My charm bracelet watch!


A lot of people are asking me where i bought this I actually bought the whole bracelet but it was too big so i shortened the length of the chain and of course i put the watch charm since i've always wanted a charm bracelet watch but can't afford the branded ones. 

What i love about my charm bracelet watch is that the charm kinds of represent something i love! I love to travel! Even though i can seem to do it cause i don't have enough money just yet but i am planning on doing it  really soon especially with my fiancee

So basically that's another part of my creative style! I think it's nice to make DIY jewelry or anything that would just make you different in a subtle but cheap/affordable day! I might do a jewelry making tutorial real soon! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Heart of the Ocean

Today i went to Baclaran to get some stuff for my fiancee's mom. She has been asking me to get her some jewelry especially swarovski crystals and silver since it's much cheaper here than over to the US.

So i was there and i just can't choose which one to get from the swarovski crystal store. I got her 6 pendants, 4 from today and 2 the other day i went there. I sort of the one who introduced her to Swarovski Crystals and then after that she suddenly realized her friends are so into those things!  Anyway here is a picture i took of them.



And i also got her this really cute pair of earrings!


I got them for cheaper price since i bought a lot so they gave me wholesale price minus special discount price!

I also got her some silver since she loves silver so much! 


Silver bracelets! She wanted to sell this to her friends, so i got her a lot of it! And i am not kidding about that! i won't say how many i got her but all i can say is it's a lot! lol

Anyway for myself i got an infinity ring!


I have always wanted an infinity ring even before the show on ABS CBN which i forgot the title was on air! I love infinity signs, i kind of think of it as my lucky charm. Infinite possibilities, infinite goodluck, infinite love and so on and so forth. I associate it with goodstuff only so Infinite anything good! You get the idea!

Another thing i got for myself is this beautiful pendant that reminds me of Titanics "Heart of the Ocean"


You can see the reason why i think that right?! It looks like it only smaller and it's swarovski crystal! it ain't as expensive as the other stuff i got for my fiancee's mom! plus added discount i only paid almost half of what it costs lol . And before i end this shopping haul post i want to show you my fiancee's gift to me.


That's the necklace he got me! I love how the pendant is hearts that somewhat reminds me of infinite sign! Which of course my fiancee is well aware off! And the stone is Peridot which is my birthstone!!! I sort off promise him that i won't take it off my neck ever! i kind of interlap it with my "Heart of the Ocean" pendant.



So that's how it looks like lol. i kinda like it. Though the Heart of the Ocean kinda over power my infinite heart peridot pendant they still look good together? Whatcha think?



So that concludes my shopping haul which i only have 2 items and more of my fiancee's mom's stuff lol. Thanks for reading have a great day!
