Birthday Things

As promise on my Birthday Recap post this is my blog post on what I got from my bday! I had a hundred bucks to spend at Sephora, some I ordered online and some I just went to the store and got it! I didn't end up spending it all but I will go back and pick out couple things though :)


What I ordered online was the Urban Decay eye primer in "Eden", the Benefit bestsellers trial kit, Rosebud Salve original then I got the Beauty Insider's Birthday reward gift and 3 samples I picked out perfume samples!


This Rosebud Salve is soooo worth ur money I'm telling ya'll! This is multipurpose, not only to use for ur dry chapped lips, but can also use on any dry areas in ur body! Also can use on baby's diaper rash! yey! I love how there is no strong smell! Truly a-must on your purse!


Philosophy shampoo, showergel, bubble bath in one! I picked this out in the store and I absolutely fell inlove with the scent! So sweet smell like cotton candy but not too much...so excited to use it as a shampoo and showergel so the next day I tried it and OMG my hair was freaking out! So dry and went frenzy crazy ahaha Efff the $21....I will give it another try though before I decided to ditch it :( or just use it as plain showergel but I will not recommend it for your hair!

On to Misc. Things:

I went to Zellers to check out some nailpolish for my toes and I found this pretty nailpolish by wet'n'wild! Its called "through the grapevine"! I love how creamy and pigmented compared to China Glaze, surprisingly I love wetnwild megalast better! I might get more of these! For $2 I think its descent! The only thing I notice is the bottle is smaller than other nailpolishes. The other thing I got was an earring, its actually made by Swarovski Crystals I love how shiny it is! And it was on sale too! :)


I don't do yoga but I will someday when I find free time but right now I just love yoga pants! They are very comfortable to wear! Lululemon got the best ones, love love love the brand! They are a bit pricey but so worth it! I got 1 pair as a gift with a pink stripes on the side and I bought 2 black ones! I love wearing these to work!

Birthday Recap

I know its kinda late for this but I was sick after my 28th Birthday last April 22nd! ugh! But my birthday went awesome! First thing in the morning Bf texted me but later during the day he came over to my house so we could go to work together! (sweet ano! LOL) I brought my bday cake, shared it with my co-workers. I'm glad they all liked it so yummy Ube Macapuno cake! Then we left early at work then headed for dinner, drinks and goodtime at Moxies. As for my bf bday present to me... couple months ago when we were talking about the movie "the notebook" I told him that I saw it a few times and I loved the movie but I dont have a copy of it! He's so sweet that he remembered and got me the dvd yay! He also gave me a bday card that I totally love like the ones he gave me last Valentines! I love cards like that, can make me smile but romantic yah know give u the "kilig" moment! So enough with the mushy things, By the way I load em up with pictures for ya'll :P

After dinner we just went home and enjoy the rest of the night watching my very own dvd copy of "the notebook"! ahaha! The next day, I went for dinner with my family I will post some pics of them soon!

Bare Minerals Minis

So I got the urge to go visit Sephora on my days off...I haven't step in to Sephora in a long time so I just went there to check out couple things! I want to view the Tokidoki cosmetic line, i loveee the packaging its way too cute but I stop myself of buying anything from that line LOL! Also I went to swatch the new Urban Decay eye primer in "eden" and im just 'eh' whatever! Just when I came home that same day I placed my Sephora order online, so stupid to buy online coz it seems like I'm paying double all the time with the taxes and shipping fees ugh but kinda exciting to know u will get something in the mail hahaha! I ordered the UB in eden, the Benefit's Minis and then I got the Rosebud's Lipbalm/moisturizer! So excited to get it hmm and oh plus my Bday gift rewards woot! Also 3 free samples I picked out from the website yey!

Oh wait, didn't came out of the store empty handed I actually bought this travel size duo the Bare Minerals Lustworthy Lips and Lashes mini mascara and gloss duo! Look how cute they are!


Here's my little review about them i kinda used these babies yesterday! The Lipgloss in "strawberry creme" is awesome! I love it coz it aint sticky at all, smells like vanilla butter, not overpower smell tho and there is no after taste, so smooth to apply and last longer than any other lipgloss I tried so I'm happy about that! I'm excited to try the mascara I tried it today too for the 2nd time and I'm not too sure about it, it definitely gives me the length but didn't separate/volumize at all and also it didn't hold up my curl on my lashes....oh well I'm still going to use this mascara anyways! This duo cost me $19CDN hmm its not too bad eh!

Pre-BDAY and NYC in July Post

Yep its really me ...making some time to blog because its a great relaxing Saturday morning! Anyways let me start to say about me and the boyfriend went to watch Shen Yun Performing Arts Concert last Wednesday April 7 at Centennial Concert Hall. It was amazing! I love their costumes so colorful and flowy soo cute! Performances consist of Opera singing, classic Chinese dances mix with props, dresses and unique dance techniques! Kind of like Chinese ballet performance I would say to describe the show :) Boyfriend enjoyed it, he's such a weirdo LOL!


Boyfriend and I's California trip got doomed! It's not going to happen! I was kind of disappointed at first but thinking that boyfriend is moving to the city and getting a house is a big step for him, I should be happy for him right? It'll be more convenient for him to go to work and school and of course living near me ehehe! He won't be driving all the way to the country side every single day! I just hope we are not get sick of each other, because we are used to be apart all the time! Now we are managing to see each other once or twice a week but if he finally lives in the city then we can get together more often! Yay or eh?!


My filed vacation at work will not be wasted anyways, baby Lauren and my Dad decided to visit my aunt Alice in New Jersey and not far to the awesomeness of New York City wooopp! It's official now! We finally booked our flight in July 20-Aug 01! Lucky Lauren is going on a trip again...my little traveller will have so much fun with me and her "Lolo" ehehe! I so excited but won't expect too much or else I will get disappointed if it doesn't turn out what I wanted, too much excitement will hurt ahaha! But my agenda for sure at NYC is to go to Times Square, Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, Central Park and of course the famous China Town for shopping, I heard a lot of people go there to shop coz they have cheap things!


My Bday is coming up....April 22 that is! I'm turning 28 ugh! I'm getting a year old, in a couple years I'll hit the big 3-0! :( My bday falls on a Thursday this year, meaning I'm working! I don't want to take a day off and celebrate but i know for sure that I'm not working the next day so the plan is just take my family and close friends for dinner on a Friday! Boyfriend is saying he might surprise me with something LOL! Oh well, pretty much guys thinks that flowers, chocolates, cards or jewelry will surprise us girls this days? hehe! Whatever the boyfriend gets me, i will appreciate it...even if he will not get me anything its ok too! As long as he's here with me on my bday its all good! :) I should be working on my bday wishlist but I really don't want anything this year as I have what I really wanted but I still have to buy some makeup essentials like MAC concealer and powder foundation that I am running low now! Definitely at Sephora I'm still hunting a good face primer, also wanting to try the Urban Decay eye primer in "eden"! See I don't want anything bwahaha jk!
