February Highlights

~Ola chingus! How's everybody doin?

The month of February is one of the special months of the year that I love since its Hubby's birthday month. In addition, there are other occasions like Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day included on this month too. As you can see most of the highlight for this month is food!  (●ゝω)ノヽ(∀＜●) 

The first picture would be a man made cherry blossom tree and paper lantern that we saw at Gateway Mall during the Chinese New Year. When I saw this display, it made me realized how I badly wish to travel to other country specially at Japan and Korea. Next photos are all about food, the reason why I can't loose weight. My diet program was not to eat after 6 p.m. but I sure do eat a lot during the morning. Last picture would be a flower design from a table mat. It was a simple art that made me smile. I hope I would be like this flower blooming through out the year. 

Richenna Bubble Color in Ash Brown

~Ola chingus! 
I've been dying to change the color of my hair and my first choice was to have an ombre hairstyle. Unfortunately, I can't afford it at the moment (;¬_¬). So I ended up trying a new brand of hair color that I saw at Watsons Robinsons Galleria. 

 Richenna Bubble Color

This product immediately caught my attention because of the kawaii packaging and korean letters LOL! I thought that it would be exciting to color my own hair. It only cost 350 pesos so I bought it straightaway after my payday.  I'm not good at product mugshots so please bear with me.

Hubby helped me with the hair coloring process. He was very supportive and excited on what will be the outcome of my newly dyed hair.

My change of hair color was not that successful. As you can see most of my hair is still colored deep black, it just gave me some brown hair highlights. Partly it was my fault because I knew I had thick hair but I insisted on buying only 1 set of bubble color which is around 50mL. If only I had doubled it maybe the results would be much better. 

I took this picture at my workplace. As you can see the it only gives a little hint of brown..pardon my frizzy hair. 

Richenna's Ash Brown gives off much more beautiful color under natural light. I was thinking of buying another 2 set of bubble color but I think it would be wiser to go to the salon. It was fun doing your own hair color but I would like to have better results. I found Kyuhyun of Super Junior hair color very interesting. I would like his hair color to be my ombre hairstyle LOL! Can you recommend any salon that can make my dream hair color possible? (｡ >艸<)

Maybelline Hello Kitty Volum' Express Mascara

~Ola chingus! 

I've been using a new mascara lately. I found it on my loot box where I keep untouched cosmetics that I purchase. I got this limited edition Maybelline's Hello Kitty Volum' Express Mascara at a sale held at...oh wait I'm not sure if it's ok to say it. I remember the packaging tried to cover the sign "For Sale in Japan Only" hihi! 

Price: 100 pesos 

Made in China

Product Claims: Get stylized lashes with 5x the volume and not a single clump. This waterproof Curl Lock Formula sets to a seductive 75 degree curl for 18 hours of savagely sexy lashes clump-free. 

Almost everything at the back panel of the carton is all in Japanese writing. I can't read them so I just took a picture of what I think is important （＾ｖ＾）

The mascara wand looks like a comb

Third coat (;*△*;) 

What I like about it ..  

• I was able to buy it at a discounted price
• Classy metallic pink packaging 
• Waterproof/Sweatproof 
• One application last the whole day 

What I don't like about it ..     

• Limited edition
• Not locally available 
• It clumps even at first coat 
• So stubborn on make-up removal  

Will I try it again? 

• Well, nope..simply because there are other mascara that are available locally that offer better results. Nonetheless, I will still continue on using this product.
