Lead My Lips
Makeup-wise, I think lipstick is one of those products that a girl can easily have fun with. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist, acquire a professional license, or possess a bunch of brushes to make it work. (If ever, you just need one, and even then it’s not totally necessary.) Just a pair of lips and a steady hand, and who knows how your look could change.
But this week, there’s...

That Love is Enough
Reposting my article from last Saturday’s issue of Philippine Star Supreme as my way of saying happy Valentine’s day to all of you! ♡
—
Valentine’s Day, like all other holidays worth celebrating, comes with two things: pressure and traffic.
If you’re part of a “we,” the bells and whistles are pretty apparent. Flowers, chocolates, dinner reservations, the perfect dress, ...

Prints Charming: Dries Van Noten →
Thanks to Stacy for sending this to me!
I’m a huge fan of Dries Van Noten’s work, especially his refined use of color and prints. I also respect the fact that he is an independent designer with full creative control of his brand (even though there have been a few misses in his last few seasons, which broke my heart a little). He is easily in my top 3 designers list, and this new...

Les Merveilleuses De Ladurée
If you love their sweets and have a bit of a make-up obsession, prepare for both worlds to meet.
Ladurée (of the macaron fame) has teamed up with Japanese makeup company Albion, coming out with a makeup line called Les Merveilleuses De Ladurée later this month. It will debut exclusively in Japan, but there are rumors that it will be released in Europe, U.S. and Asia much later in the year.

Say It Right
On the current season of Survivor Philippines, there was a now-infamous tussle between Arnold Aninion and Angelicopter, wherein she made a comment about him being “parang bakla.” The war of words and attitudes progressed beyond the TV screen and onto Twitter, where Ellen Adarna defended her friend by calling one of their below-the-belt hecklers a “faggot.”

The Wish List
Every year, I post one of these things, and I love that I hardly ever get anything that’s on it. I’m not being sarcastic, I’m saying that my friends and family are too cool for school and awesome at giving gifts I didn’t even know I wanted. That still doesn’t stop me from doing it every year. HAHAHA. Without further ado, the 2011 Christmas Wish List:

Karl Lagerfeld X Sephora
A capsule collection by Karl Lagerfeld for Sephora, to be launched on November 4 in Europe and Asia.
There is a part of me that feels like I need this palette.
I love Sephora’s nail varnishes —they don’t dry up or separate for a really long time and apply like a dream. (Btw, doesn’t that packaging kinda remind you of EvolutionMan?)

MAN-icures and Guyliner
Speaking of all things nail varnish, I came across this article from Allure.
EvolutionMan, a men’s grooming line, is coming out with a nail varnish line exclusive to men. It boasts 3 colors — a pale gray, metallic purple, and a gunmetal — together with a matte topcoat and a regular shiny topcoat.
I’m down for guys getting manis and pedis — it means they pay ...

Day of the Dead: Evil Eye Nail Art
Pamela Love tweeted the photo above, talking about Evil Eye nail art. She says it’s her favorite Halloween nail trend, and I agree, mainly because I have been fascinated with the evil eye for some time now.
The evil eye, for those of you who may not know, is known to be a malevolent stare. (As in, “She’s been giving me the evil eye.”) But I don’t just mean bitchy...
