THEFACESHOP Addiction


I’m not a vain person. I could care less about make ups and beauty rituals. I just use Alyssa Ashley as body skin moisturizer and sometimes use St. Ives Apricot scrub or Celeteque water based moisturizer for my face. However, when I turned thirty last year, I realized how important a skin regimen is. Especially when I am seriously going to enroll in law school.

I used to tease my friend, Shayne (In My Own World, shanen10.blogspot.com), that she is a bad influence when she introduced THEFACESHOP products to me. I’m a sucker for good, quality products and I will not contest how good this shop’s wares are. The items are reasonably priced, way cheaper than Etude’s and it doesn’t hurt that the endorser was from my first fave Korean boyband, SS501.

It’s convenient as well since my old lotion, Alyssa Ashley is so hard to buy. I had to ask my Aunt who used to work in Dubai to send me a big bottle when my supply’s almost a third full. There are a lot of THEFACESHOP outlets in the metro so I can just go to one when I have the time.

I have three items that I tried and are loving at the moment. The first is Jeju Orange Pure Water Facial Mist. Priced at two hundred fifty pesos (P250.00) for a seventy milliliter (70 ml) bottle, this handy product does wonders to one’s face. It’s a moisturizer and provides an instant relief from the hot weather.

The second item is the EAU de L’AME Perfumed Body Milk. It costs seven hundred ninety five pesos (P795.00) per two hundred thirty milliliter (230 ml) bottle. It takes moisturizing seriously and smells really great. I think it has a cooling agent in the ingredients because no matter how hot my room was, whenever I apply the lotion to my skin it still feels cool. It also has a two counterparts, a body scrub and a body wash. I’d like to get my hands on these two items when I have extra money to spare.

The latest and newest item I bought was the Green Tea Body Perfume Mist. I was looking for the mist version of my lotion but unfortunately, it doesn’t have one so I just settled for a product whose scent closely resembles my lotion. This item costs four hundred twenty five pesos (P425.00) per one hundred five milliliter (105 ml) bottle. Not bad eh? And I’m telling you, it freaking works! We spent almost an hour inside Pepper Lunch and came out smelling like the menu. Sprayed some of the mist on my clothes and voila! My cousins all agreed it was a good purchase as they all used my perfume to mask the smell of sizzling steak that clung to their clothes.

Just in case you wanted to see how the products look like, here’s a picture.

And here’s how we looked like yesterday.

Ain’t it obvious from our smiles that we love to eat?

On that note, I wish everyone a great and stress free Sunday.

Talk to you later!

Of entrance exams and elections…


I took the entrance exam for PUP College of Law in Sta. Mesa last May 11, 2013. I was part of the third batch of hopeful examinees. We were advised at the start of the exam that we were all scheduled for the interview at 12nn on May 18, 2013. First come, first served basis. I guess that made sense since there were like forty (40) slots remaining for the first semester. Being punctual would help big time I guess since it would show how determined you are to get that coveted spot.

Would it be too much if I arrive for the interview an hour early? Or would that be weird? Anyway, I hope that they would still consider me for enrollment even if I don’t arrive for the interview early. *fingers crossed*

On a more serious note, I just finished casting my vote for our midterm Senatorial and Local election. Our precinct was one of those who have low voters turn out so it didn’t take me and my sis more than fifteen minutes to cast our votes. Though the PCOS machine returned my ballot twice, lol!

I guess the machine didn’t like who I voted for, teehee!

So yeah, that’s how my weekend and Monday was so far. Oh, and it’s raining right now, lucky! The temperature’s been nearing the forties (in Celsius) for the past few days and weeks so this weather change’s very much welcome. Smile

How’s everyone’s day so far?
