One of the Biggest Beauty Secret: H2O
Drinking a good amount of water (at least 6 or 8 glasses per day) helps to keep the skin and hair nourished aside from the other health benefits.
Have you noticed your glow if you are hydrated?
I am not surprised when I had learned about Micellar Water.
It was from Instagram when I had first seen the one from Garnier.
I’ve been wanting to give it a try since I had finished off my makeup remover and my toner.
I got mine from Carrefour and I can say that it is nice though – without the strong scent and does the same task as that of a makeup remover.
A friend had also posted the mist from Evian. This one’s from Watsons in the Philippines and is very refreshing.
After cleansing my face, I just spray it on and let it air dry.
I’ve been using it for almost 2 weeks and my skin is supple and does not seem dry especially the area near my nose.

Happy Skin: Shut Up and Kiss Me Scene Stealer
A lippie from Happy Skin is on top of my list.
I got it at around Php 600 and is worth it.
It says that “This lippie offers a three-fold “lip service”: a trendy matte texture, the pigment of a lipstick and the hydration of a balm” and so far it is living up to its promise.
I’ve tried a lot of matte lippies and most of them are so disappointing and I had ended up with very dry, chapped lips.
Being based in the Middle East, hydration is a must! Else, imagine cracked lips and wind burn all the time.
My verdict on this lippie: will be a mainstay in my makeup bag!
Hmmm, am already thinking of the next shade to buy.

NYX Pore Minimizer
It was just last week when my two-week vacation in the Philippines ended.
I had gone off to SM Megamall for a quick lunch/catch up with my good old friends and off course, I did not pass the chance to drop by NYX’s boutique.
Then I was in makeup heaven!
Compared to the ones that we have here in Doha, the shops there are way jam-packed with stocks and I don’t know which one to try out first.
Since I was converting to Philippine Peso, I find them pricey (hehehe) so I just got what I really needed.
I was supposed to get the CC creams but the shades are way too light for me so I giddily went out of the shop with this Pore Refiner.
It says that it can be used as a base, on top of make up or on it's own.
It really does help. My pores are visible on the nose and some under the eyes and it appeared smoothen out.
Too bad this one’s always out of stock here so I have to use it wisely.
