I'm back!!! (I hope!)

Before I decided to write this post, I went through all my old ones and I'm surprised on how far I've come.

I'm older, wiser and my makeup collection is definitely bigger. HAHA!

Also, I've been doing makeup professionally now for almost 3 years and I've been able to refine my kit, get rid of duds, try-out hyped products and figure out what works for me and what works for my clients. So I feel like restarting this blog at this point in my life, I'll be able to share valuable information that I've learned and gathered through the years (as compared to before, when I was just starting out).

So there. I'm back. And I hope you all will enjoy my reviews, tips and tricks, insights, and all that other fun stuff. For the next few days I'll be posting Japanese products that I've been using and have been enjoying! Stay tuned!

These are some of the things I'll be posting about:

1. Shiseido Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam
2. Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil
3. Obagi C10 Brightening Essence
4. Kose Medicated Sekkisei (Lotion/Toner)
5. Kose Medicated Seikisho (Whitening Peel Off Mask)
6. Baby Foot
7. K-Palette 24-hour Tattoo Liquid Eyebrow Pen
8. Smile Cosmetique Teeth Whitening Strips

And a whole lot more!!

Ps.
Yes, i went on a makeup shopping spree. :))

Swatch: Chanel Rouge Coco Gabrielle and Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss Exces

I know, I know, I've been such a fail blogger! I really wanted to post reviews but real life was soooooo hectic! 

I had a tiny bit of free time tonight so I decided to share some swatches the Lip I wore today! I find it a super pretty combination! 

Both products photos are from the internet!

Review: Chanel Rouge Coco #05 Mademoiselle

Hey everyone!
I'm back with another Chanel Lipstick review!

Today I'm reviewing one of Chanel's most talked about Lipstick shades, Mademoiselle. I saw this in magazines and billboards on Vanessa Paradis. It was a really pretty color on her so I researched about it and read a lot of really good reviews so when we were in Singapore I grabbed a tube from duty free!

Review: Chanel Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss #57 Insolence

I'm back for day 3 of my blogging penance! I'll be talking to you guys about my favorite lip gloss except it really doesn't feel like just a  gloss but like a liquid lipstick. 

This was my very FIRST Chanel product and I was drawn to it because of the color! This gloss sparked my love for Chanel makeup! So if you want to learn more about  Chanel's Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in #57 Insolence, read on!

Review: MAC Lipstick in House Wine

Hey Loves,

I'm back after a whole month of not blogging! I was really busy with my day job (www.paloalto.ph) and didn't really have the time to write! I've been pretty active on instagram though so if you have the time, please do follow me @paulineylaya for outfit of the day and face of the day posts! 

That being said, let's jump right into today's review!

I've been on a lipstick shopping spree last month so one of the lipsticks that I've picked up is MAC's Lustre lipstick in House Wine. I'd describe it as a sheer, glossy, very wearable red.
