Lovely Samples from THEFACESHOP

The only instance when the word 'samples' bring me happiness is when they come in the form of little sachets or bottles with colorful graphics. The contents inside should be soap, facial wash, toner, cream, moisturizer, or what-not.  

See, in my line of craft, 'sample' means 'deadlines', and of course along with it comes stress. Hehehe... It feels so conflicting whenever I encounter the word 'sample'. To me, it either means stress or happiness.

This time, it means happiness.

There is no getting over THEFACESHOP at Wisma Atria! I went for a visit there with boyfie, and to my surprise, they were celebrating their 8th anniversary and they had activities to boot! They gave us a drink which was suppose to rejuvenate your skin, something which was made from aloe vera and wheat grass (not sure though, I forgot). It was sweet and refreshing at the same time. But the best part is, they gave away a sample set! Yay! 

The boutique looked great with posters of Kim Soo Hyun hanging on almost every wall. The products were lined up in perfect order as well. Some had cute packaging, while others had the formal look. 

Oops, since we were in a hurry, I wasn't able to take photos of the lovely place and the friendly ladies who greeted us. I do have pictures of the samples though!


My lovely samples from THEFACESHOP!

I'm most excited to try the Aura CC Cream! This is my first ever sample of CC cream. I'm very curious of this innovation and how it compares with BB Cream.

Next is the cutest sachet from the bunch: The Chia Seed Moisture-Holding Cream. This claims to have Chia seeds extract which does the job of moisturization.

Sleeping packs are a regular in my regimen. But a sleeping mask? Are they even the same? Let's find out, shall we? THEFACESHOP gave away this sachet of Baby Face Sleeping Mask Aqua Drop Pack.

Sun block should never be skipped in your skin care routine. I'm so glad that this SPF 45 sun cream is included in the sample kit! 


Natural Sun Eco Power Long-Lasting Sun Cream SPF 45 PA+++

Lastly, we have the cleansing foam. This is part of the whitening variant which has rice water as one of the ingredients. 


Rice Water Bright Cleansing Foam

Going through the whole post, I have deduced that I was actually given a complete skin care regimen: wash face with Rice Water Cleansing Foam, pat dry, then apply Chia Seed Moisturizer; nest is the sun cream, and lastly, the CC cream. Now that is awesome! Wheee~ Unfortunately, I haven't seen these products in the local THEFACESHOP stores here in Manila. I will definitely go and check their availability once I have taken a liking to any of them. If not, I'll have boyfie get them for me. :P 

Happiness!

The 2019 Starbucks SG Planner

Happy New Year, dear readers! The year 2019 comes with new wishes, new beginnings, and of course, new planners! Yay! I'm excited for all of it. The new year for me means a fresh start for all the failures I've had for the previous year. Yep, I feel ya! 2018 was kinda rough for me, too. But anyways, I'm here to share with you a tool to help us face the days ahead.  I'm sure that some of us take life as it goes along. But there are others, like me, who have a planning personality. And lemme tell ya, it's really frustrating how things don't go according to plan. Most of the time, life doesn't make it go as planned. Ugh... But fret not! Even if life foils everything, that doesn't stop us from using planners! Wheee~ They're cute and inspirational. They give us a sense of "getting our life together" , too. Hahaha~ So for this post, I'm gonna share with you the Starbucks Singapore  2019 planner!  The 2019 Starbucks Singapore Planner

Lee Min Ho Mall Tour: SM Mall of Asia Leg

I still can't believe that it was just two nights ago (November 18, 2012), I saw Lee Min Ho in the flesh! As early as 5:30PM, I was already in SM Mall of Asia Music Hall, joining the fans as we eagerly wait for his arrival. The crowd was very overwhelming. I bet some people waited there two hours earlier than I did!  Lee Min Ho is a South Korean actor. His popular dramas include Boys Over Flowers, City Hunter, and Faith among others. His prowess as an actor and his to-die-for looks are enough to make women go gaga over him -me included!  He is my favorite actor. I love his dramas. In the future, as I gain more skills, I plan to cosplay his characters, especially Johnny from City Hunter. He is the reason why I love Korean products like Etude House . Now, I have another brand to love... and it's a Filipino brand! I'm very happy that Lee Min Ho is the latest endorser of the clothing line, Bench .  Crowds make me uncomfortable. It was my first time to have ever attended

Presenting The Starbucks 2014 Planner

There are a lot of 2014 planners available out there. For this post, let me share with you the 2014 Starbucks Planner. Every December, people are talking about it! The cover and the layouts are something to look forward to, as well. For this year, it came in four colors: yellow, magenta, brown, and black. The black one is the Philippine edition ( hmmm, tempting! ). I'm very much impressed because the cover feels like leather.  I will feature the magenta one. My friend owns this. I already have a planner for 2014, owning another doesn't make sense at all. Hehehe ~ So, I decided to take some photos of it and share what's inside. (^_^) Left: the box, Right: the planner.  The cover is embossed with coffee icons and Starbucks coffee blend logos. I noticed the symbol for their coffee Sumatra and the elephant icon for Kenya. The 2014 Starbucks Planner in magenta I saw the symbol of the Starbucks coffee blend Sumatra embossed on it. Here is a really cute featur
