What's the first thing that came to your mind? Beach? Swimming? Why not, right? We better think of ways to beat the heat. But for now, I'm contented with ice cream and halo-halo. 

Since we mentioned summer and heat, as a beauty junkie, we must take care of our skin. I know getting some color is important right now but make sure you do it properly. Staying under the sun for a long period of time can cause skin disease, dryness, breakouts, etc.

There are a lot of ways to protect your skin and here are some. 

1. Drink plenty of water
It is important to keep yourself hydrated all throughout the day. Water will both hydrate your skin and flush out toxins that can mar your complexion.

2. Stay out of the sun between 10am and 3pm
The most damaging time and the hottest part of the day. The longer you're outside, the more you're skin is exposed to radiation.

3. If you can't avoid going out between 10am and 3pm, make sure to bring some sun protection such as hat, umbrella and sunglasses.

4. Eat healthy foods
A healthy skin comes from eating well. Eat plenty of fruits, especially those refreshing ones and vegetables in salad, raw or steamed.

5. Examine your skin regularly and do some research
As they say, prevention is better than cure. Check for some sign of damage on your skin. If you wish to apply sunblock, do your research on which product will suit your skin type,


It is important for everyone to understand the impact of sun's ray to our skin. Please take time reading and choosing all products that you will use on your skin. 

It's quite intimidating when you walk to a beauty or cosmetics shop and get lost to hundred of lipstick shades, what more to those make-up products you're not aware how to use. 

In this post, I'll give you the five essential make-up every girls must have. 

1. Concealer 

To cover dark circles under the eye. You can use it as well to cover blemishes. 

2. Lipstick

It can be any shade you want to get that kissable lips. Also you can get the color or bloom on the face just by applying your favorite shade of lipstick. 

3. Powder

To keep yourself fresh all throughout the day. Kiss the oily and dull skin away!

4. Mascara

A mascara is way better than an eyeliner because it makes your eyes pop and liner makes them smaller. Also you need to consider the shape of your eyes for eyeliner. You will never go wrong with mascara!

5. Contouring Kit

If you want to have more define look, stash some contouring products on your pouch. You can also use this as eyeshadow, under the eye concealer or eye brow filler. 

Practice and effort are the key to success to get the high level of artistry in beauty field. Don't be afraid to try different products. Keep on experimenting.

Honestly, I don't have any idea about it before. That's how advertisements and reviews piqued my curiosity. 

Imagine your BB cream thinned to a watery consistency and pour into a compact, topped with a cushion then more perk. How cool is that! This innovation in beauty product came from Korea that's officially gone mainstream. People go gaga over it. Thinking of getting one? Keep on reading. 

Now, let me introduce my very own cushion compact that I purchased from Althea. It's one of their editor's fave and I can only agree. 

Chica Y Chico Matt Cushion in No.23 Medium Beige

The compact is very beautiful and lightweight. It won't take too much space on your bag, can also fit your pocket. See?

Once open, you'll see the puff and the mirror. 

The "next big thing" is secured in another compact to make sure that it will not dry out. It's quite funny how you have the press the "springy sponge" to get the liquid formula but with that, you have control on the amount that you're about to apply on the face.
