Delightful Illusions

        Ola! ^_^

        The second day of the 30 Day Beauty Blog Challenge is to post about you favorite bag that you own.  I would say that I have an average amount of bags, not that many at all. I buy bags once in a while, mostly when I just need a new one. My love for totes is already over. It's time to grow and get something that's appropriate for my age and a little bit mature. 

      This black bag that's made in a faux leather material with gold-chained strap is my favorite so far. It's classy and somehow edgy. It goes well with pretty much anything. It's like a messenger bag but with a lady-like touch. I got this from my mommy's shop; she gets stuff from China and send those in here. We have this water business and a little boutique here in our town. I might be able to post a tour of our shop soon. I'll see about that. 







       The sad thing about cheap bags is that the inner lining is easily torn. I have some sturdy high-end bags but this one's the stylish. I don't care if it's cheap. :)

        I'm sorry if I wasn't able to post yesterday. I was tired from strolling around the mall. I got some stuff for a job interview. :) Have a nice day. Stay safe, everyone. XOXO

        A Blessed Sunday to everyone! I came home an hour ago from church. Today, I will officially start the 30 Day Blog Challenge which was popular back in 2011. I will be doing this finally, hoping I can get through this. The first on the list is to blog about your favorite eyeliner.

San San Gel Eyeliner (Black)
        So far, this eyeliner from San San is my favorite. I don't if I have mentioned this before; I have a hate and relationship with their makeup products. But, this particular product is amazeballs. It's pigmented enough for it to be buildable. It's long lasting; stays all day long and does not smudge. This perfect for the lash line and waterline, though I find it really annoying for tight line as it transfers to the waterline. I use the Revlon Eye Liner Brush for this gel liner. Overall, it's great. :)

Excuse my amateur application. ~,~

It's a little bit dry by now because I had this way back in February.


I hope you try eyeliner, it's affordable. :)

       How's everyone? Are you safe? Yesterday was really frightening because of the storm Yolanda. A lot of properties at the coastal were destroyed here in our province, even in the farms.

        Happy November! First post of the month! Yay. :) Have you visited your loved ones who already passed away? By the way, how's everybody's Halloween? Did you enjoy? Lucky you. I have actually never attended a Halloween Party in my 21 years of existence here on earth. Haha! I was supposed to but I'm currently busy right now and on the upcoming days. It was our "babang-luksa" on the 3rd. My classes will start this Saturday and I'm so excited to be at school again. :) Anyways, it is the time of  the month (a little bit later) for me to talk about my monthly favorites. I don't have a lot of stuff for October since I have been using the same products. There's no need to be redundant in discussing about products because I'm pretty sure you already get my point, right? This would be my shortest favorites post yet. If you are interested with the items that I'm about to show, then just keep on reading. 

October Favorites

Purederm Make-up Cleasing Wipes with Aloe Extract

       The best makeup wipes I've ever used in my entire life. It removes all of the makeup on my face, even waterproof ones. It leaves my skin feeling clean, like I just washed my face. It's moisturizing and smells good. The best thing about this is that it does not break me out. It contains natural ingredients such as aloe vera, lemon extract, cornflower, Ginkgo biloba, ginseng and Vitamin E. It seems to be safe for acne-prone skin. I recommend this to everybody, regardless of your skin type. I bought this at SM Department Store Beauty Section  for a pack two. Could also be found at Watsons.

Nichido Foundation Stick in Ivory

       This has been doing wonders on my under eye dark circles for the past few months. I use this as a concealer rather than as a foundation. It's creamy, blendable and stays all day long. It has a peachy tone which is great for covering up dark circles. It's the shade "Ivory", which is supposed to be on the yellow category. But, I'm not complaining since the product is great. I thank Ning Hilario, Beauty Editor / JR Art Director of Meg, for featuring a similar product on the July issue. Hers was a concealer stick, I couldn't find one so I opted for the foundation. Check this out if you are looking for a good concealer.

Daiso Diamond Eyes in Purple

       The brow powder is superb match for my Etude House Easy Brow Pencil (Dark Grey), which was featured on my June Favorites. The combination gives my brows a polished grooming; it looks natural on me. As I have mentioned before, I have medium-toned brows. Gray is definitely my go-to color for this part of my face. These two products are the bomb as they do not irritate my skin and stay on place for a long time.

Victoria's Secret Such A Flirt Fragrance Mist


      This is one of my top fragrances from Victoria's Secret. This has fresh and floral notes; it's fruity, sweet, non-citrus and tropical. This contains starfruit and white orchid. The blends are incredible and nothing that is overwhelming. It reminds me of adolescence. I'm obsessed with the scent; feeling like I could use this forever and will not get sick of it. How I wish they would formulate a perfume version of this. I would definitely buy! I recommend getting this. :)

Meg magazine


      Before I end this post, I would just love to inform you that my tweet was published on Meg magazine on the last month's issue. I was surprised and extremely ecstatic.:D  Oh my goodness! Thank you so much Meg! 

       And that's it for my October Favorites. I hope you enjoyed reading this. Comments really enlightens me and are always replied back. More posts coming, Have a nice day. Stay safe! XOXO

        Hello, guys! How are you? I have been busy the past couple of weeks, from family events to school matters. I have also done some repainting of furniture on my room, I have redecorated it. I also shopped for Christmas decorations for our home. Holidays is in the atmosphere! Hoping I could blog about it soon.  I'm really sorry for the inactivity, I really do. :) 



      Hoop earrings have been in trends for an endless time. They are popular from then until now; very fashionable and looks classy. They give a polished look in almost any outfit they are matched with. I have collected a lot of these way back during my college days. Unfortunately, I lost most of them and these are what's left on my collection. I used to buy plain silver hoops, but then I've seen daring ones from various people so I bought different styles. I was inspired by JoJo to wear hoops, she's one of my fashion inspirations actually.



       I got this black pair at Broadway Gems for Php 20 a few years ago. Michelle Phan was my inspiration for this; she was a wearing black hoop at her Mascara Business Card Trick video. It rocked on her so I looked one for myself. I couldn't find a round one so I opted for this flower-shaped pair. By the way, MP rocks back then. I don't watch her videos anymore. :( 


        These blue hoops are from Shop and Match. If I'm not mistaken, this was around Php 12. I got this pair during the summertime. Thought this was really cute because of the chain attached to it. There were other colors available but this was the most appealing to me. Perfect for the beach.


       These next two pairs are from the brand Angelina; it was available at Robinson's Department (Iloilo) back then. I think this was Php 50 each. I bought these way back in 2011. These are thicker than usual hoops, giving a retro vibe. I got them in hot pink and red. I haven't actually used the red one still. Haha! :) 



      I got this recently at Ingmar (Marymart Mall). I lost all of my silver hoops so I bought a new one. I love the width and style. Perfect for casual and special occasions. My obsession this month.


      This pair was from Jellybean, was originally Php 199 down to Php 50. Isn't that amazeballs? This has faux Swarovski colorful stones. It's thicker than usual. One of my favorites from this collection. Perfect for special occasions. 


         This is the most amazing hoops earring I ever owned! It looks classy, not trashy. The dangling flower chains are gorgeous. I just wish I got this as a genuine gold jewelry. This pair was from Forever 21, from Php 285 down to Php 99. I remember Britney Spears wearing something like this at her I'm A Slave 4 U music video. Her hoops is even more fabulous. Check the video. :)


       This pair is some sort of like a Tibetan / Bohemian inspired. I cannot exactly explain what this is. It looks fab but I haven't worn this yet. Haha! I need more inspirations. This was also from Shop&Match.

     That's all for this collection. If you want to see these earring worn one by one, check my Instagram account. My links are listed on the sidebar and below this post. I gave away half of my accessories because it's trashing my room. I've done some cleaning a few months ago. I'm considering collecting genuine jewelry for investments. What do you think guys? I have a product empties post coming up. Thank you so much for reading. Talk to you soon. Have a nice day. Stay safe. XOXO
