Who does not love fairy tales? 

I've grown up reading and watching fairy tales! 

When I was a kid, I had collected a lot if these booklets that comes as free with every pack of Nido. 

I was extremely happy when I found the Faerie Tale Theater in YouTube! 

All I can remember was Shelly Duvall and googled her. 

Tada! I have a whole new set of videos to watch before sleeping since I cannot sleep without watching or reading something. 

Here are my favorites: 

• The Emperor's New Clothes 
• Beauty and The Beast - totally love Susan Surandon here 
• The Little Red Riding Hood 
• The Princess and The Pea
• The Pied Piper of Hamelin 
• a whole lot more! 

The Day I Broke My Spending Ban

Yes. I am guilty. 

I have started strong but I had given in to shopping. 

I took a midweek off from work last week and headed to the mall alone to buy a pair of rubber shoes. 

The rubber shoes turned to a few blouses from Zara and some more from H&M. Yikes! 

I felt so guilty but proud also of myself since I had chosen classic pieces that I can wear during the hot summer days up to the chilling days here in Doha. 

Nonetheless, I am still doing well with my Project 333. I have swapped one with my newly purchased top from Zara. 

The same goes for The Minimalist Challenge. I've cleaned up my accessories mostly necklaces and will sell them online as preloved items. I have a long way to go with regards to my closet though. 

Wheeew. 

Wish me luck! 

Mouse. Minnie Mouse.

For the casual jeans and tshirt day, a loose shirt is my go-to one. 

With the scorching hot weather in Doha, well, it's just smart to wear loose shirts. 

Eid Mubarak!

Eid Mubarak!

Be grateful.

You are blessed.

Don't stop praying.

Have a great and meaningful Eid!

My Essentials in Black + White

Seeing things in Black and White recently...

Smelling Good Eh?!

I have always been a big fan of Bench Colognes.

Naalala ko nung High School pa ko, pinag-iipunan ko pambili ng body spray nila. Asa Php 95 ata un that time. Haha.

Kada umuuwi ako ng Pinas ngayon, madami ako dala pabalik sa Qatar though meron na din Bench dito sa Hyatt Plaza kaya lang medyo matagal tagal na din ako di nagagawi dun.

Nung huli kong uwi nung May, I was surprised na super dami na nila scents!

Pero ung mga fave ko pa din binili ko: Atlantis, Bench 8 tsaka ung mga scents na Maine.

Ung iba pinampasalubong ko, ung iba stocks ko na.

Last time na nagawi ako sa Food Palace meron nitong mga colognes kaya nagstock na din ako.

Sa init ngayon dito eh di kami naglalabas anyways, trabaho bahay lang din naman kami mag-asawa.

Di nakakasawa ang amoy and laging feeling fresh lang ang peg.

Ika nga, Love Local.

Kaya ano fave nyo?

Olay Moisturizers

This is the first ever moisturizer brand that I had used.

When I was working in the Philippines, I would normally but the small bottle of the beauty fluid which is around Php 95 if I remember correctly.

Up until now, I am still using the same brand.

Am just happy that they have a lot of varieties now depending on what your skin requires.

I used to have the beauty fluid but my face is getting oily.

Good thing they have this one for day use which can also serve as a primer.

It is a pinkish one and somewhat reminds me of the Johnsons Baby Lotion.

I am not into using whitening products but surprisingly this cream did not have that espasol or mumu effect (the one that makes your face + neck ultra white so fast) so I am using this one at night. Which reminds me this jar is almost empty!

What's your fave/go-to moisturizer?
