I only thought of shapewear once I ventured into the corporate world. The undergarment isn't exactly new to me since I have seen my mom wearing it on special occasions when I was a little girl. I have noticed, though, that my mom would wear them on special occasions and always looked more beautiful wearing them. Not to mention sexier!</p><p>Today, I have a couple of nude and black shapewear, which I now find a good wardrobe investment. While I can't speak for other women, wearing it makes me feel confident and empowered. If it has something to do with the illusion that I lose some pounds by wearing it, maybe it's how its magic works for me. I love that wearing shapewear immediately gives me that feminine silhouette, which is its one significant advantage.</p><p>Every woman's hourglass figure will complement one's casual attire or sexiest dress when worn with the correct shaper, something instantly attainable without dieting or visiting a cosmetic surgery. Don't we all hate dieting? Just kidding! Knowing its advantage on my part, I plan to add more shape-wear variants to the two that I currently have. I am also looking for different styles apart from the usual ones we see. Hence, I took the liberty to look around online for available and affordable shapewears. Lo and behold! Fortunately, I've found some, and they go in my cart!</p><p>Anyway, guys, where do you mainly shop for clothing these days? In a boutique or a shopping center? I hate to admit it, but I do shop online these days. I find it very convenient, especially when working around the clock. Below are some of the best I've found, and I hope my humble list can help you, too, if you're also looking for one.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://curvy-faja.com/products/zip-breasted-body-shaper-tank-top-22112863-1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1080" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQXN_IZLv9-BNZl9aeulRsjr1YSAAHyKw9N7MAb9Hv_E_Y7CFTMjoOxeAcJ1ICbXl4iwZ-eCAxSjQPtHsFdlI1JDRd_kDLBiEx9OT0xHhgL5Ig368oEgCTk_RFIYvxrsbOHkTNSY02s7WWyx17efraIM7gfCm8UbIotLzDVyAmXL7FQStR-HCw3b_vx-rk/s320/Women-Waist-Trainer-with-Zipper-Hooks-Ref10060-(4)_1080x.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div>Zip & Breasted Body Shaper Tank Top<p>First on my shopping cart is this body shaper <a href="https://curvy-faja.com/products/zip-breasted-body-shaper-tank-top-22112863-1">faja tank top</a> made of breathable fabrics.

However, recently, some couples are opting for a change by having their partner who offered also wear an engagement ring. These rings are typically worn separately until the wedding ceremony, where they are paired with a wedding ring. An engagement ring represents an important life decision and holds great sentimental value. Some popular engagement ring styles for women include those with a prominent center stone, such as solitaire and halo rings. Today, lab-created diamond engagement rings are also growing in popularity. They are practical due to their affordability and style – two things that modern women would go for.</div><div><br /></div><div>Buying an engagement ring can feel very, very serious. Fortunately, modern brides-to-be have a lot to choose from. From myriad stones and lab-created gems to find the perfect ring. I’m not getting married yet, although I would love to be my partner’s bride. Recently, I learned about lab-created gems as rings, and it inspired me to learn more about them and share them on my blog.</div><div><br /></div><div>Here are my top three favorite engagement rings other than the classic diamond:</div><div><br /></div><div><b>MOISSANITE ENGAGEMENT RING</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Moissanite is a lab created gem with minimal environmental impact. It costs cheaper per carat than a lot of other gemstones. The Mohs Scale of Hardness gives moissanite stones a durability rating of 9.25, which qualifies them for daily use. The hardest stone, diamonds, receive a score of 10. Without the exorbitant price that can shatter someone's bank, moissanite, at 9.25, isn't that far from being the most brilliant stone.</div><div><br /></div><div>Moissanite has a crazy amount of sparkle. Its refractive index is higher than a natural diamond's, producing more shine and a special kind of fiery rainbow brilliance. Moissanite less expensive to buy, but is a nearly flawless gemstone. It has the kind of size, clarity, and color few diamonds do. </div><div><br /></div><div>You will love looking into this <b>Moissanite engagement ring set </b>that I absolutely adore.</div><div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii1N7BmmdSayyYa1COoHKD6yzHfB4Sr2I-BmPcNq0RCf0Oey3r-pCBFfrBH4CltjJMmV3_SD9HJ3JpcNeC3yFETEUFWEHbPrlS0n_dPFkNbkbu_7HZtivnIltY0sMm_vk7N9TEyYhEqlMHEr5SvYtxAwqaODKIM6wy-lzfdqJSXstFE37znRgFBbl3NFxs/s1080/il_fullxfull.3721628755_w1kb.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="901" data-original-width="1080" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii1N7BmmdSayyYa1COoHKD6yzHfB4Sr2I-BmPcNq0RCf0Oey3r-pCBFfrBH4CltjJMmV3_SD9HJ3JpcNeC3yFETEUFWEHbPrlS0n_dPFkNbkbu_7HZtivnIltY0sMm_vk7N9TEyYhEqlMHEr5SvYtxAwqaODKIM6wy-lzfdqJSXstFE37znRgFBbl3NFxs/s320/il_fullxfull.3721628755_w1kb.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /></div><div>This pear-shaped Moissanite engagement ring is vintage-themed with rose gold band and and a halo design.

Any way you choose, it is stunning, but an oval shape frequently accentuates them.</div><div><br /></div><div>Sapphire engagement rings are timeless, regal, and magnificent; they are considered to symbolize luck, loyalty, and happiness; and they are thought to promote harmony between a couple. They give any proposal a regal air; Princess Diana is even reported to have worn one prior to her marriage to King Charles III. It is understandable why so many men would propose using the deep blue gemstone.</div></div><div><br /></div><div>Those who want to make their ladies feel like a princess or a queen will love this <b>sapphire engagement ring set</b> that has captured many eyes.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://willworkjewelry.com/collections/sapphire-ring-set/products/3pcs-blue-sapphire-ring-vintage-sapphire-engagement-ring-set-rose-gold-for-women-diamond-halo-natural-sapphire-wedding-band-bridal-ring-set" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkodVd7BmpUslf6WNJU_8BbdbY14BmCTNzUvbHHyazzZe49vXVksXKkO-UZ6ZTWcMQEqNmqLcz4tqm-sRxY_Q7eY-et5Bg3RWbeW9qQHCZ8WmKQxh64F8pL7bPgR9mG_B8PSHOmSn8QXFFjm40a5CYYo7bYDfcGvMJJacALijdi-w-YGCEjLa_liO9yOWR/s320/il_fullxfull.2199451704_a32o.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div>This engagement ring featuring a beautiful sapphire is to die for!

It was a precious jewel valued by royalty throughout Europe. The gem was thought to embody all the virtues of each gemstone whose color was reflected in the opal's color spectrum, which led to its reputation as a stone that could bring great luck during the Middle Ages.

I’m not exactly adventurous when it comes to trying new brands of makeup, but if an opportunity arises for me to see if something works better than what I already have, then I wouldn’t pass on the chance to do it.</p><p>Recently, I got my hands on some products from Focallure, a makeup brand from China. I got them as gifts from a friend and she swears by some of the items that she sent me. I have heard of the brand from a popular online shopping portal in the Philippines, but I haven’t tried any of them. I know most ladies would cringe at using products from a brand that is not exactly a household brand yet, but I don’t want to make my friend feel bad by not trying on some of the gifts she gave me. </p><p>Below is a photo of the Focallure makeup my friend gave me. I have used the products occasionally, and I grew to love some of them, which is why I decided to write this review, apart from sharing an unbiased insight for each item. The products from Focallure come at affordable prices, so I can understand the hesitation of many beauty lovers to purchase and use any of them. However, I also believe that price isn’t the only way to know if one thing works or not.</p><p>Not knowing anything about Focallure, I decided to learn more about the brand, and what I’ve learned from its official website is that <a href="https://focallure.com/">Focallure</a>, pronounced as “Fo-co-llure”, is a cosmetic company that aims to bring out each person’s undiscovered beauty through the power of makeup. The brand was established in 2014 by a group of fun-loving makeup scientists who came together to make cosmetics unmatched in the industry. I wish there was more information about the brand itself, but I was glad to find that it has a viable website online.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd_hKHad4l43nvxA_wUH8Eemxcu7ZC2kAxDUAv_H4GRiSy6Knw5KAcgXQeJ2iHN8Uqawybqz8rhmoSlHX40RsuPNCI1Obq0gf0ydfeDmjeVpsK8RhcZp5fVQlQPNJPeIROQu91l3qGguSH54Xz64jj1XVoE1foyRF_l-OR0i1P77PzLbCGZU2L6XTpyA/s3526/IMG_20230407_035526.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Focallure makeup review" border="0" data-original-height="2775" data-original-width="3526" height="504" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd_hKHad4l43nvxA_wUH8Eemxcu7ZC2kAxDUAv_H4GRiSy6Knw5KAcgXQeJ2iHN8Uqawybqz8rhmoSlHX40RsuPNCI1Obq0gf0ydfeDmjeVpsK8RhcZp5fVQlQPNJPeIROQu91l3qGguSH54Xz64jj1XVoE1foyRF_l-OR0i1P77PzLbCGZU2L6XTpyA/w640-h504/IMG_20230407_035526.jpg" title="Focallure makeup review" width="640" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Tinted Eyebrow Gel </b></p><p style="text-align: center;">It wasn't long ago since I started using tinted eyebrow gels. Although I love how much time I can save using eyebrow pens, using eyebrow gels give my eyebrows a more defined look. Also, it lasts longer than eyebrow pens. I love this gel from Focallure; it lasts long and color stays throughout the day. Plus, it's relatively cheaper compared to other eyebrow gel brands I have purchased the previous year. <b><br /></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjln_p15Q0Yv6X3jfI7V9-D5nP1m7rlSa87dmdICatNJSAvItH-KYVz--8WA4BkrvU6jaYnamnQmRH3PEg8c2ddGQeYvF1YJAY0ignc7anT4EuAm3plUQoPv0JtQ0t-G6Y85NbYGuhvrT00UmQGWuSAd4GHKCK0MknPs0uhRZO93mPw8Gkrm9RPAWhAmA/s3735/IMG_20230407_035610.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Focallure makeup review" border="0" data-original-height="2895" data-original-width="3735" height="496" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjln_p15Q0Yv6X3jfI7V9-D5nP1m7rlSa87dmdICatNJSAvItH-KYVz--8WA4BkrvU6jaYnamnQmRH3PEg8c2ddGQeYvF1YJAY0ignc7anT4EuAm3plUQoPv0JtQ0t-G6Y85NbYGuhvrT00UmQGWuSAd4GHKCK0MknPs0uhRZO93mPw8Gkrm9RPAWhAmA/w640-h496/IMG_20230407_035610.jpg" title="Focallure makeup review" width="640" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Gel Eye Liner (Black)</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">When I welcomed the new year, I told myself to be ready to try new things, including new and better products. Trying on gel eye liners is one of the things that I've always love trying and I'm happy that I'm able to do it.<b><br /></b></p><p style="text-align: center;">The gel eye liner from Focallure does work. It has the right consistency and it dries pretty. However, my eye lids being sweaty, I don't think this will work on my everyday make up look since it takes time to put them on, and sadly, it smudges on certain amount of wetness on the skin. Hence, I would not recommend this to those who have oily eye lids. Still, it's a great product and you can still use it if you're not doing so much physical work.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh64OTpefXzj8avpK4nzT2GNl8hayy_acAFMliQS5_HOwbi7qpQqMpPL60VvW3j-DiheuSKuTzUhgELzGJ4u1i_n2H2jrYpLQiSmi0-aYjJTEf7I21rZaAcMYkUnOATNBnv7ICQcvQLqwas4BCG1bEY-US_FPAhgLHJQVDUXmqBmI1viD2Ue1sesBK57w/s4096/IMG_20230407_035728.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Focallure makeup review" border="0" data-original-height="3072" data-original-width="4096" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh64OTpefXzj8avpK4nzT2GNl8hayy_acAFMliQS5_HOwbi7qpQqMpPL60VvW3j-DiheuSKuTzUhgELzGJ4u1i_n2H2jrYpLQiSmi0-aYjJTEf7I21rZaAcMYkUnOATNBnv7ICQcvQLqwas4BCG1bEY-US_FPAhgLHJQVDUXmqBmI1viD2Ue1sesBK57w/w640-h480/IMG_20230407_035728.jpg" title="Focallure makeup review" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJ8K5xndCer5IfwQw3mdEW_LumMxiLHFO9eOubwdYFqlXwyVn1UPey-Z5Ow_aNR-bphE5Gzt2samoGrQFWxV0xhobhpL1T0d9Fw4y6mnSwYnG2Vx9gCztyOfL1vocM_OI0J8vTfuugPWgYmJm0_QdiSgG5Jx0ZorGt-tZ-XSvAz1_MoCwAEzL6Zb0sMA/s3977/IMG_20230407_035754.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Focallure makeup review" border="0" data-original-height="2653" data-original-width="3977" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJ8K5xndCer5IfwQw3mdEW_LumMxiLHFO9eOubwdYFqlXwyVn1UPey-Z5Ow_aNR-bphE5Gzt2samoGrQFWxV0xhobhpL1T0d9Fw4y6mnSwYnG2Vx9gCztyOfL1vocM_OI0J8vTfuugPWgYmJm0_QdiSgG5Jx0ZorGt-tZ-XSvAz1_MoCwAEzL6Zb0sMA/w640-h426/IMG_20230407_035754.jpg" title="Focallure makeup review" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">The eyebrow gel and the gel eyeliner from Focallure come in similar packaging.

If you live somewhere far from the tropics and enjoyed plenty of snow last December, it's time to get rid of those bulky boots, scarves, and sweaters that have been accumulating in your closet all winter. Spring might be just around your horizon, while here in the Philippines, we will be enjoying summer real soon.</p><p>To remain relevant this year, you can swap them out for something current. In this manner, you can present your best self for all upcoming occasions, including parties, dates, and activities, making a positive impression on everyone you encounter. Aside from that, buying the proper wardrobe items could help you improve your entire attractiveness.</p><p>Here are some pieces that can instantly revamp your 2023 wardrobe without shelling so much cash out of your bank account.</p><p><b>Classic Pieces</b></p><p>Little black dresses and white button-up shirts are examples of classic pieces as opposed to passing trends that could become outdated after a few months or years. You can build a versatile capsule wardrobe with a little amount of mixing and matching that works for any event or season.</p><p>A black, plaid, or any neutral-colored blazers will always come in handy no matter what year it is. Also, be sure to have one in different fabrics if you will be traveling a lot this year. Going somewhere colder? A well-made blazer made of wool might be just what you need.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiODlpwPVyWDXZT2PKHWDVVjhSvvAG2eoY3he4yxCrcJsMOmJoyQJyq_1fF4lTppUIPCXX9r_bdPuWeSF2NXieU9XDKxKA6U7vJTyqoO5-8P-fkT9sRqwbvuI0cUUxPKdGqTVaoHd7PM4ndAcB62343E0GHyUo3KLo0R6pPug8PFLe3elg_-tLVDKAJig/s1188/IMG_20230105_193715.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1188" data-original-width="973" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiODlpwPVyWDXZT2PKHWDVVjhSvvAG2eoY3he4yxCrcJsMOmJoyQJyq_1fF4lTppUIPCXX9r_bdPuWeSF2NXieU9XDKxKA6U7vJTyqoO5-8P-fkT9sRqwbvuI0cUUxPKdGqTVaoHd7PM4ndAcB62343E0GHyUo3KLo0R6pPug8PFLe3elg_-tLVDKAJig/s320/IMG_20230105_193715.jpg" width="262" /></a></div><p><b>Quality Underwear</b></p><p>You don’t have to splurge on designer brands to look great. Instead, you can put an expensive look by adding quality underwear and a <a href="https://www.sculptshe.com/products/sculptshe-long-sleeve-bodysuit"><b>long sleeve shapewear bodysuit</b></a> in your wardrobe. A lot of us don’t put too much detail on our underwear as long as they're comfy, but knowing its full potential can elevate your look. Good undergarments will not only make you feel comfortable as you get through your day but it can also boost your confidence as it hides away unwanted bumps and bulges in your outfit. In turn, you’d look more polished. This is really helpful especially if you are wearing lighter fabrics and sporting a professional look.</p><p>After a couple of mind-boggling years during the pandemic, people will surely enjoy a lot of parties this year.

Consider how you might incorporate various red, blue, and yellow hues into your attire. You might feel more confident after wearing these hues. You might be keen to experiment with new appearances in 2023. For instance, it would be advisable to get a pair of caramel pants if you saw them because they would match nicely with the majority of your tops. You might also use a vivid blue coat to give your outfit choices more visual oomph.

Growing up, like most teens, I faced the pressure of who had the most friends and the best clothes. As the years went on, I quickly came to realize none of that mattered. At this stage in my life, I realize it’s quality over quantity, and I’ve been happier than ever since I started living by that mantra. Although I have not integrated it in all aspects of my life, I am proud of the baby steps and small wins that I have accomplished. </p><p>I am not saying that I will completely avoid trendy items.However, I am aware that curating a closet full of timeless pieces that inspire me to be my best self is both significant and beneficial to me. Ahead are the pieces that I'll wear more as I enter a new decade of myself real soon. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihH2REZCF2ozeEAFCuSx4S529W-9jAkrcBNuyMB7uIf1VmWhGdqaqohUnE8OmyLZRxJbgRgY-wdlrZJam16hGdx96Tm4vKlxLfTtbGAT7x2CP1AQnVIZS3z5NUt4u1xtLcEQlF1SB48u7S80pIJqeOV3EEY4UoRxS8W4o28AEpFF4JPo-E36_Uy0wcQA/s2730/IMG_20221214_150421.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Fashion" border="0" data-original-height="1821" data-original-width="2730" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihH2REZCF2ozeEAFCuSx4S529W-9jAkrcBNuyMB7uIf1VmWhGdqaqohUnE8OmyLZRxJbgRgY-wdlrZJam16hGdx96Tm4vKlxLfTtbGAT7x2CP1AQnVIZS3z5NUt4u1xtLcEQlF1SB48u7S80pIJqeOV3EEY4UoRxS8W4o28AEpFF4JPo-E36_Uy0wcQA/w640-h426/IMG_20221214_150421.jpg" title="Fashion" width="640" /></a></div><p>1. <b>Blazer</b></p><p>A quality blazer is truly the only option. A layer over any outfit makes it feel finished. It's one of the things I reach for most frequently year after year. Blazers are among the best items to invest in for quality, and these are some of the best. </p><p> 2. <b>Loafers</b></p><p>Although loafers have always been fashionable, the environment in which they are worn varies frequently. The traditional black leather loafer, which is no longer a work shoe, can be worn just as much as a traditional pair of black Converse. Really, they are that adaptable. </p><p>Loafers are chic, cool basic shoes that will never leave style. Due to their timeless element, I try to buy a pair with the intention of them being one of my most worn shoes. This means they need to be basic enough to make sure they are not trendy. Yet they ought to be cool enough to raise my clothes. </p><p>3. <b>Tote Bag</b></p><p>Tote bags are not only easy to style, but they’re practical for everyday wear and can fit all of your necessities. An everyday tote is a must-have accessory for anyone in their 30s who works from home or commutes to work every day.You can use your tote from the gym to dinner with friends every day if you pack it with your planner, a water bottle, or anything else you might need.</p><p>4. <b>Black Dress</b></p><p>A decent black dress can take you from the office to the office party, from client meetings to cocktails and the boardroom to the ball. Or just to dinner on a date! What used to symbolize mourning, is now an ageless, classless, and timeless item of clothing. If you want to look sexy, laidback, chic, classy, or all of these, you'll have it with your black dress. In my case, I wouldn't choose something so little or too lengthy. Something that hits a little above the knee and would accentuate my curves in the right places would be best for my wardrobe. </p><p>5. <b>Denim Jeans</b></p><p>A good pair of jeans with a relaxed, vintage feel can do anything, and these are the most adaptable type of denim.Finding a pair that fits you well, won't stretch out during the day, and you enjoy putting on is worth the effort. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUSWkp35vVpPi2w_tkJipq_ZJYuJftuLF2tt45CElHz7NB3r-RtfNnFtS6lwwF6hrdFynHImZwX6yvBTQuuyzw5tr2d8hz9m1PO4NObrWgCFOQNofncNAn5tv-CaMxRoFVwLS_ZjtJpcSJdG2ToU8J8iGxU0cBtNrCvfC4O5trnay9Rfngi-HRm4Vt6Q/s2235/IMG_20221214_150403.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1463" data-original-width="2235" height="418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUSWkp35vVpPi2w_tkJipq_ZJYuJftuLF2tt45CElHz7NB3r-RtfNnFtS6lwwF6hrdFynHImZwX6yvBTQuuyzw5tr2d8hz9m1PO4NObrWgCFOQNofncNAn5tv-CaMxRoFVwLS_ZjtJpcSJdG2ToU8J8iGxU0cBtNrCvfC4O5trnay9Rfngi-HRm4Vt6Q/w640-h418/IMG_20221214_150403.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-40292855536403717362022-07-25T01:12:00.001-07:002023-04-06T12:45:15.038-07:00‘Women, Work, and the Art of Savoir Faire’ by Mireille Guiliano: A Book for Empowered Women<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnMTxJ2FQ39nZjo7SO6Ve1TYmkHEr9WramGfAAWLzVOE7Sv4P-96h51o-t2Gt1XXzR8fkxx4-aNNLnDtK247JLZSQUnJogAJi1j_Jf3Dc2eH7MupPQoHOBLYw76XK_NunETLrVCIRjhumcnd8so6oYiAzXNks-uou13eCGnliVIAPV_FGSIMgfwjyKhw/s4160/1970-01-20-122949586(1).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="‘Women, Work, and the Art of Savoir Faire’ by Mireille Guiliano book review" border="0" data-original-height="3120" data-original-width="4160" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnMTxJ2FQ39nZjo7SO6Ve1TYmkHEr9WramGfAAWLzVOE7Sv4P-96h51o-t2Gt1XXzR8fkxx4-aNNLnDtK247JLZSQUnJogAJi1j_Jf3Dc2eH7MupPQoHOBLYw76XK_NunETLrVCIRjhumcnd8so6oYiAzXNks-uou13eCGnliVIAPV_FGSIMgfwjyKhw/w640-h480/1970-01-20-122949586(1).jpg" title="‘Women, Work, and the Art of Savoir Faire’ by Mireille Guiliano book review" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> Apart from your family and friends, do you have someone you can consider as your life coach who gives you sound advice and constant support? While not all women share this, having a strong mentor will certainly help us take our goals to the next level. This is especially true for women still forging their path in relishing the best part of their work and personal lives. If these statements echo as truth to your ears, then you might consider adding 'Women, Work, and the Art of Savoir Faire' by Mireille Guiliano to your to-read list.<br /><br /> Published in 2009, French author Mireille Guiliano's subversive brilliance and practicality shine in this self-help book. Divided into twelve concise chapters, the book discusses sweeping issues involving women in a distinctively light and entertaining tone. Although the book mainly revolves around concrete topics regarding work and business, it also gets to grips with advice on communication, and fashion. Plus, it includes delightful recipes for home entertainment, giving the book the proper equilibrium between what's valuable and eccentric.<br /><br /> As a reader, self-help books are not my cup of tea. I haven't read one until I picked Mireille Guillano's 'Women, Work, and the Art of Savoire Faire' while idling away time in a local bookstore. Having scanned its first few contents, I decided to purchase the book.<br /><br /> Defined as the knowledge of the right course of action: knowing what to do and say and when and how to do so, the Savoire Faire is emphasized mainly by the New York Times bestselling author. As stated in the book's overture, Guillano seeks to help women widen their knowledge for empowerment and balance in today's face-paced world. The author employs a fun, friendly, and non-assertive tone to convey her ideas in the book.<br /><br /> In the book's first few chapters, the author highlights the importance of being aware of our fears and pursuing our passions in bringing our dreams into actuality. Guillano masterfully illustrates this notion by presenting real-life examples. The author uses her experiences as a young woman in her early 20s to prove her points. She also used anecdotes from various female characters, including one who successfully managed to turn her mundane work scenario into something rewarding.<br /><br /> Guillano persuades her readers to put their hearts into whatever they do. This is one of the best advice I have taken from the book. For what's the point of finding success without happiness? Too often, we let go of our passions because we were afraid to take a risk at a moment of opportunity. Another essential lesson touched by the book is the importance of cultivating one's image. This includes finding a chance to develop your communication skills and character, which will be part of your defining characteristics even as you navigate life outside your business or career.<br /><br /> Other helpful tips presented by the author include coping with difficult situations and getting an A on your job interviews, or business presentations. The most important piece of advice that I have gathered from the book is trying to live a balanced life. I have learned that our personal lives can significantly affect our job performances, so we have to take care of our health first, before making our wallets fat. Our work is just one part of our life. While it is an essential aspect of living, is not our life.<br /><br /> Guillano's book taught me much about acing life through its practical, fun, and helpful counsel. What I like most about the book is the use of exciting and insightful stories from different lenses. As a female, the book makes me feel empowered and more knowledgeable. However, there are a few points that I would like to critically pick from the book. For the most part, the author emphasizes machismo by mentioning self-help books written by male writers of her caliber. While I could see her point for doing such, I find it a bit unnecessary when empowering young women. A tiny part of her book also highlighted the need for women to be 'sexy'. While her tone does not mean or sound condescending, movers of body positivity might not take this well. Therefore, such statements are better off omitted from the book.<br /><br /> The book is an excellent read for women of all ages. From reading this book, men can also learn a lot to look at women's perspectives in a new light. If I were to rate the book from 1 to 10, I would give the book a solid 8. The book is light and easy to read giving its readers a worthwhile reading experience. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to empower themselves. As the book brings something unique, Michelle Obama's 'Becoming' is also a great option to magnify the table. <br /><br /></div>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-49009764060124909392022-07-14T03:21:00.001-07:002022-07-14T03:21:36.230-07:00Life Lately<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUzkozb7w-BeCHeXwEPYBN-OzDSCBkd5PO1LEQj5KKbhFLYaUTqdtC-Q_ZCS6ijj0sZxfZAli0B9NKFIULWGp3P5Iq7c8xXJmamnLtl-jMRI7dU9YvQ4dHJ6m6OoVWbIbhxHlNpku_Uq9hM8mm-bRgh6rHmlYFiXlPyQkZgrfxwr2Ncpw35c-0Dv4jUA/s4160/1970-01-20-101657746.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3120" data-original-width="4160" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUzkozb7w-BeCHeXwEPYBN-OzDSCBkd5PO1LEQj5KKbhFLYaUTqdtC-Q_ZCS6ijj0sZxfZAli0B9NKFIULWGp3P5Iq7c8xXJmamnLtl-jMRI7dU9YvQ4dHJ6m6OoVWbIbhxHlNpku_Uq9hM8mm-bRgh6rHmlYFiXlPyQkZgrfxwr2Ncpw35c-0Dv4jUA/w640-h480/1970-01-20-101657746.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> Hello friends! I know, it's been a while since I've scribbled something closer to my heart, and please pardon me if I bombarded you with too many "sponsored posts". <i>Anyway</i>, I'm still around though I know I haven't been in this space for quite some time, especially during the height of the pandemic when everything just seems uncertain. If you're reading this post, I hope you are feeling well, healthy, and mostly, happy. </div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> A lot happened when I sort of stopped sharing something personal in this blog. Mostly work, but mostly life. Life happened and it's still an ongoing show. Nothing grand happened though, I'm not getting married or expecting a baby, but I thought it would be proper for me to run you through what's been going on in my life if I were to sort of 'come back into my usual blogging caliber. Not that I ever stopped, which you'd find out later. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> I would like to say that one of the biggest reasons why I haven't blogged here as much as I did is the drastic shift in going digital with every aspect of our lives. For sure, most of us worked in front of our computers more than we used to prior to the pandemic. This is especially true for me ever since I worked full-time as a content writer last year, and briefly as a curriculum developer. This means that I spend more or less ten hours working on my computer, and I would really love to lessen it to protect my eye health. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Going back, what's new? There might be a lot of new things or ventures happening in my life now. Most of which aren't even part of my "goals", but I'm grateful for the good ones. Like every other person's life, I also had some bumpy parts. Some of which I'm still coping with as they are emotionally traumatic, and it's not something everyone can understand so I just tend to be quiet about it. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b>What's Up?</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Yeah, so what's up? Here are some major updates in my life. Feel free to read or not. <i>lol</i> :)</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b><u>I've started making fashion earrings.</u></b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> A part of me always wanted to create something with my hands, and I find it so liberating to come up with something that I initially just had in mind. If you know me or if we personally often meet, you'll know how much I love wearing earrings. I remember collecting fashion accessories before particularly rings which I have actually blogged countless summers ago. <i>haha</i> Now, I'm conceptualizing and making earrings. This is more of a side hustle or a hobby for now though, but I am happy how this makes me and other ladies happy. I'm not producing or selling my creations in massive quantities as I do this by myself with whichever materials I have. This is also not something I would consider a full-blown business since I have to have a full-time job that would allow me to pay the bills aka Netflix monthly subscriptions. <i>lmao </i></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Nevertheless, this makes me so happy and free, and even though I'm aware that this isn't something that would make me rich AF, I'm grateful for the smiles this has given me. Also, this has given me the chance to reconnect with some of my college and high school friends whenever they want to buy a pair from me. This is because I'm only posting my creations using my Facebook account, which is fine with me as I get to know and see that people I personally connected with are wearing my creations. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidItAsTWyB6sPNBeLDs4U0x9D4mVWQfVdmhsMwIBXuu0gAby69x_mK8F-baXY0wQplzGYFcUpATuUzeu6YTBt5tXHMD9Bn3Wo3Kj_8sAVwd50_wEsMRU_4cU3nJfIgIVD6t601ZORiw9hENszQO4caTcxN8fF-FZQFSj2TNIybB6ySOECm9hPKlCxjzg/s2240/Untitled%20design%20(2).png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="997" data-original-width="2240" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidItAsTWyB6sPNBeLDs4U0x9D4mVWQfVdmhsMwIBXuu0gAby69x_mK8F-baXY0wQplzGYFcUpATuUzeu6YTBt5tXHMD9Bn3Wo3Kj_8sAVwd50_wEsMRU_4cU3nJfIgIVD6t601ZORiw9hENszQO4caTcxN8fF-FZQFSj2TNIybB6ySOECm9hPKlCxjzg/w640-h284/Untitled%20design%20(2).png" width="640" /></a></div><b><u>I've made a lifestyle blog exclusively made for my city - Cebu City</u></b><div><b><u><br /></u></b></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"> One of the things that I love about blogging is that it allows me to share what's good in my beloved city of Cebu while also practicing my creativity by taking photos and scribbling words. This is something that I deeply love and as cliché, as it sounds, it helps relieve my stress. It is also through my humble virtual space that I can express my support to the businesses in the city especially startups/ MSMEs.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> Blogging is not my bread and butter, but it doesn’t matter to me. It is and has always been a means of catharsis for me. I've had so many struggles during the pandemic, especially during its height. I know I'm not alone with it, and despite trying my best to be strong, I couldn't help but worry for my health and for my family. I know that many businesses in my city were also struggling at that time, and I did the best I could to support them by buying local products. This just got more relevant when mobility was limited. Hence, I decided to create a blog that focuses on the good things in my city be it products, people, or events. I find that with the stress that we've experienced, knowing that there are positive things happening around you would definitely help keep hope alive. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> The best part about running my localized blog is the opportunity to get to know inspiring people within my community and be able to share them. Not to mention, I was able to work with different PR agencies within our city and get to promote homegrown products. Plus, I got invitations to write as a freelancer. Although the gigs I had are not enough to be viable sources of income. I'm grateful for the sense of happiness that it gave me.

Most of you who have read my blog pre-pandemic when I was active AF here, you may have read some of the poems I have published in this space. As the name of this site suggests, I initially intended to house my poems in this blog. However, as I met new friends and got interested in other areas such as fashion, I've published blogs other than poetry. The book is far from finished and I've selected some poems which I have shared here to be part of the collection. I'm not sure when I can finish it either, but let's hope I will despite having a gazillion of other things in mind. haha</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> For this blog though, I plan to add two more categories that I'll be focusing on apart from product reviews. I'll be sharing blogs about health and book reviews. I actually worked as a content writer last year where I write about health and wellness. I cannot of course just share what I have written in this space, but I have learned so much from what I wrote. Since I find health as one of the top priorities in life, given that we are still going through the COVID-19 pandemic, it got me thinking that I should also write and share about wellness here. Of course, it's a delicate topic that requires research so I might not be able to blog about it as often. Same with book reviews, my work gets so much of my time. Adding the crazy traffic in the Philippines where I need to allot 2 to 4 hours to commute, I'm left with little to no time to read in a day as much as I want to. Still, I'm positive about this and would like to share with you my reviews on my favorite books as I slowly add more to my reading list. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Apart from these things, I don't think much of me has changed. I'm still the same Tine who adores visiting museums, coffee, and flowers. Although, personally, I'm much quiet than I used to be. I get a part of me got used to the part of me who lives in stillness. Not everyone can understand that part of me so let's just say, talking in person is not my hobby at this moment! :) Oh, and I'm slowly trying to get more active in Instagram @scaryredroses so, say hi is you're hanging out in IG! </div>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-80939050424474186792022-07-07T22:30:00.006-07:002022-07-14T02:21:38.708-07:00Managing Chronic Pain<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIeWSAOWGqeOSGBpYKqTQCozhrylO63PhDXUcUQ5cKH0uJeSvHOFZqlq7yinSnnQqGb5OiTNuWRtnC3iSDMiEUPXEYNRJ5yeTMs93rxntHTiI4DrOP9I8qbZmf47ITZwVntYpbdHqJQkIImdXiFWyC1stnUGReu1PIw4hugHJICHgfi286OIbt9iNQ_w/s8400/joyce-mccown-IG96K_HiDk0-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="managing chronic pain" border="0" data-original-height="6300" data-original-width="8400" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIeWSAOWGqeOSGBpYKqTQCozhrylO63PhDXUcUQ5cKH0uJeSvHOFZqlq7yinSnnQqGb5OiTNuWRtnC3iSDMiEUPXEYNRJ5yeTMs93rxntHTiI4DrOP9I8qbZmf47ITZwVntYpbdHqJQkIImdXiFWyC1stnUGReu1PIw4hugHJICHgfi286OIbt9iNQ_w/w640-h480/joyce-mccown-IG96K_HiDk0-unsplash.jpg" title="managing chronic pain" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> When we think of health and wellness, what our minds immediately conjure is our physical health. However, health is multifaceted. This means that for us to be truly healthy, we need to consider the different aspects of wellness including emotional and mental health which are closely linked with each other. As such, long-term conditions such as chronic pain can directly impact the way we achieve holistic wellness. </div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> We feel pain when something hurts us that causes discomfort. Often, pain could be a symptom of an underlying disease. While some pain could be easily remediated, there are some that last longer than six months. This is chronic pain that continues even after one has healed from an injury or illness. Basically, it is a type of pain that continues when it should not. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> There are other people who have suffered from chronic pain without experiencing physical injuries in the past. This is why chronic pain is associated with certain health concerns such as arthritis. Due to its long-term characteristic, chronic pain causes emotional and mental stress including anxiety and trauma of re-injury that could hinder someone from doing an activity they once loved. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> If you are experiencing chronic pain, know that you are not alone. Globally, chronic pain is the leading cause of years lived with disability. In the United States alone, one in three adults suffers from chronic pain. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> As chronic pain can bring major stress to your body’s hormones, it can also affect the neurochemicals in your general nervous system including how your brain works. Thus, the intense pain that you feel can affect your daily mood, behavior, and overall outlook on life. This is the reason why many of those who suffer from chronic pain experience depression. In fact, a study published in 2006 stated that more than 70 percent of those who suffer from chronic pain testified to having depression. In a similar study, more than 80 percent reported that they have sleeping issues. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Social isolation from feeling depressed and anxious also causes behavioral changes in chronic pain patients. These changes can cause tension in the patients’ personal and professional relationships. All of these can result in the deterioration of social networks that could provide emotional and mental support. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> The challenges in finding treatments for chronic pain management and mental health issues also contribute to a higher risk of substance abuse and suicide for its sufferers. Certain pain killers such as opioids can obstruct normal cognitive function and regular pain impulse communication. When not taken properly as prescribed by a physician, these drugs can heighten mental health issues. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Controlling chronic pain and treating mental health issues can result in pain relief. In addition, these will also improve the patients’ living conditions. It is essential for those in the medical field to understand chronic pain deeply and look for more ways in helping those who suffer from it. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Struggling with chronic pain and mental health issues? Doing these might help provide relief to your condition along with prescribed medicines. First, seek help from mental health professionals. Psychotherapy and cognitive training can limit the severity of stress that can make your pain worse. Second, exercise. Physical exercises are not only proven to release “happy” hormones that enhance one’s mood but also act as natural pain relievers. Doing so will both improve your physical and mental health. Lastly, modify your lifestyle. This includes practicing mindfulness and eliminating harmful toxins from your body. This includes choosing healthier food options and maintaining control over your mind and body. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Suffering from chronic pain? Whenever possible, take yourself out and enjoy life outside. Do your best not to isolate yourself and surround yourself with people who genuinely support you with your struggles. It is totally normal to feel tired, so do not feel guilty if you need to recharge and rest. Helping those who are going through the same concerns as you do will also widen your perspective in understanding your pain deeply.</p>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-77948650850652436662022-06-27T09:07:00.008-07:002022-07-05T22:28:32.925-07:00How to Style a Simple T-Shirt<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWoM5c8JedsdoBQv6VMrd5kNjlIQjxzMr0_IChPuL7LJpMZ78mzKJxsH7tSJZF3-dANeuNIccTh_QXX9PViJGiK4Xv8gCx5sr18wdYC2uPH9hNtol-kOagtTAqPk7RpCtfI4jrOVRuWmiQidkmwWdoND7jsAYmokXIelpFU-lD35ZDAADIEzy8gXzA6g/s800/thumbnail%20(1).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="cheap T-shirt" border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWoM5c8JedsdoBQv6VMrd5kNjlIQjxzMr0_IChPuL7LJpMZ78mzKJxsH7tSJZF3-dANeuNIccTh_QXX9PViJGiK4Xv8gCx5sr18wdYC2uPH9hNtol-kOagtTAqPk7RpCtfI4jrOVRuWmiQidkmwWdoND7jsAYmokXIelpFU-lD35ZDAADIEzy8gXzA6g/w640-h640/thumbnail%20(1).jpg" title="cheap T-shirt" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> One of my favorite go-to pieces of clothing for a quick and casual #ootd is t-shirts. Aside from the fact that they are readily available in different prints and colors, t-shirts are one of the easiest clothes to style. Plus, with the sales and discounts available in various stores, you may easily grab a <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/t-shirt">cheap T-shirt</a> for your wardrobe. Depending on how you match them with other clothing pieces can easily elevate your look and make your look more elegant-looking despite sporting your good ól t-shirt. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> When it comes to availability, you'll never run out of options if you're looking for the best t-shirt that will suit your budget or desired look. Online shops like <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/">shelivo</a> have a number of options and even vintage or thrift shops have the best tees available. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> Going back to styling, here are three of my personal favorite ways of styling a simple tee. Of course, there are a plethora of other options that you may also follow, and yes! I would love to hear how you would usually style your simple t-shirts. </div><p></p><p><b>Pair it with your favorite jeans and white sneakers</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> This must be the classic and the most common way of styling a tee. I mean, some would even call this basic but I'd like to call this clean. No unnecessary fabrics just you and your tee and white sneakers. What I love most about this look is that I could literally sport this almost everywhere and can easily pull this look together especially if I'm running out of time. Plus, I could easily spice up this look by throwing on some minimalist accessories or my simple black bowler hat. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjifOY4llUbsBLS0l2hhPO01P8ieFE-eWWB4y6QNf05gF4VyNOuxNI1JJR5Fup2LoTFIBM_D1UgD2RNrN_26AynJS-79d0Za6aEywLKlzwQAotPDPPJLPwN-Z2upmylDsKT_g-YKRx7tnao_6j12jDyzjwCUBiyHKrsqG0lWWtjJwzfSTbzRiteE__hkw/s1023/96178a49c74bd2ef8a183128efbaabce.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="cheap T-shirt" border="0" data-original-height="1023" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjifOY4llUbsBLS0l2hhPO01P8ieFE-eWWB4y6QNf05gF4VyNOuxNI1JJR5Fup2LoTFIBM_D1UgD2RNrN_26AynJS-79d0Za6aEywLKlzwQAotPDPPJLPwN-Z2upmylDsKT_g-YKRx7tnao_6j12jDyzjwCUBiyHKrsqG0lWWtjJwzfSTbzRiteE__hkw/w470-h640/96178a49c74bd2ef8a183128efbaabce.jpg" title="cheap T-shirt" width="470" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/t-shirt/products/womens-petal-sleeve-casual-t-shirts-purple">Women's Petal Sleeve Casual T-shirts - Purple</a></div><div><b>Pair it with graphic skirts</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"> I understand that not everyone is a fan of color blocking. Some ladies including my mom and my sister are afraid to sport some colors in their outfits and I feel that that shouldn't be the way. Although some occasions do not call for bright colors, I love how integrating them into my outfits makes me feel instantly bright and ready to conquer the world. I hold into this feeling fast by pairing my regular black or white tees with my favorite graphic skirts, and let me tell you, it works all the time!</div><p><b>Pair it with a s</b><b>uit</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b> </b>This one is probably one of my most used and abused ways of styling a regular too. The secret? A powerful structured suit or blazer. I love how I could make this look work when I have to go to a slightly fancy brunch with my friends or on a casual date in a mall. I just adore how this styling could make someone look effortlessly chic - not too casual, and not too formal, but definitely fun!</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://fashionpulses.store/">vaqueros de moda mujer</a></p></div>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-82823097397132761172022-06-26T11:30:00.006-07:002022-06-26T23:35:31.701-07:00Comfortable Footwear Ladies Must Own<p> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNDi1wgdtPwSI5BMkgRich8HhIK_A3n6nZY00ZHUS9jcrrC4x9a-caIqB7460xWoU80YT0k0mEo7odyk_zyInFEl6E98F_8glo775aOLMRNEc54HYjh4tU3UUQPWfrgXJ7GFBg4d7Zp2f_uhDEcpREYCfIaiTre1t7SVl4ZGCk-A2r-eSkhuTjmuRI1w/s750/thumbnail.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNDi1wgdtPwSI5BMkgRich8HhIK_A3n6nZY00ZHUS9jcrrC4x9a-caIqB7460xWoU80YT0k0mEo7odyk_zyInFEl6E98F_8glo775aOLMRNEc54HYjh4tU3UUQPWfrgXJ7GFBg4d7Zp2f_uhDEcpREYCfIaiTre1t7SVl4ZGCk-A2r-eSkhuTjmuRI1w/w640-h640/thumbnail.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> Something monumental happened earlier this year when I had to undergo minor surgery on my foot due to foot corn. Basically, it's like a deeper and thicker callus which could cause pain and discomfort. I've been dealing with mine since November last year and only decided to visit a dermatologist earlier this year thinking that it would go on its own, which is possible but in some cases, especially with mine, it needed to be surgically removed. One of its causes is wearing uncomfortable footwear especially if you need to stand for a long period of time, or if you have to walk on uncomfortable terrains. </div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> My foot is now fully-healed and my experience taught me how important it is to wear appropriate and comfortable footwear. Having this in mind, I have here three of the recommended footwear for ladies which have proven to be comfortable. This includes the ones I've found at <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/"><b>shelivo</b></a>, an online shop that sells various clothing and footwear online. </p><p>1. Sandals with Cushion and Arch Support</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> First on my list is <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/comfortable-wedge-sandals"><b>comfortable wedge sandals</b></a>. This is because I find sandals easy to wear, and also sensible in most places. Even most workplaces these days allow the use of sandals for their employees. This includes the office where I am currently working for. Sandals are also easy to maintain and could last longer depending on how you care for the footwear. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> I recently went shopping for a comfortable sandal, and the sales lady gladly walked me through the best ones I could find. I noticed that the ones she recommended have cushion lining in them and durable arch support. Looking into these things, I found that those refer to a corrective device worn in the shoe and so molded as to provide support for the natural arch of the foot. Not all footwear is created equal so if you want to have the most comfortable shoes there is, best consider those that have such support. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoSFPxyAbmoWK53ThWtVWFteYhrk_fIp_OwTmeES3DntRzbSoNckyaUpaz6K0oZMfISDzIpopiHH4TxyLTKMrEIQNrRSfjZ9OlpmBPQCtNpRNnMyTPrTzAMNRWrAxMTBljJVa8dTy1_J9gFiD_0_emYPKDkoTgxOyMI9-c5SSziIdgus582hcpYUsTRQ/s750/7f7581ccc64fd51a11d78b6f2ad142d4.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="comfortable wedge sandals" border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoSFPxyAbmoWK53ThWtVWFteYhrk_fIp_OwTmeES3DntRzbSoNckyaUpaz6K0oZMfISDzIpopiHH4TxyLTKMrEIQNrRSfjZ9OlpmBPQCtNpRNnMyTPrTzAMNRWrAxMTBljJVa8dTy1_J9gFiD_0_emYPKDkoTgxOyMI9-c5SSziIdgus582hcpYUsTRQ/w640-h640/7f7581ccc64fd51a11d78b6f2ad142d4.jpg" title="comfortable wedge sandals" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/comfortable-wedge-sandals/products/flat-fish-mouth-embroidery-platform-sandals ">Flat Fish Mouth Embroidery Platform Sandals</a></b></div><p>2. Sneakers</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Anybody who doesn't have a pair of sneakers should have one. I believe this is something we can all agree. Sneakers are one of the most versatile and comfortable footwear there s that we could wear almost everywhere. Plus, sneakers are easy to style and its classic look makes them instantly elevated even when you're just sporting your regular shirt and jeans combo. If you're not a fan of heels, sneakers are better choices for you compared to wedge sandals.</p><p>3. Combat Boots</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> I know there are a lot of comfortable shoes out there that we can consider, however, I'll stop at these three for now. The third and the last comfortable footwear on my list are combat boots. It's no wonder why it's the choice of footwear for military men. While it may take you longer to wear them, as long as you got one that's in your size, you could literally do anything while wearing your combat boots without leaving them behind. P.S just a quick trivia though, the most expensive shoes I have to date was a pair of combat boots from Dr. Martens. It was quite pricey but boy, how I felt invisible while wearing them! My imaginative mind also tells me that those would be my footwear of choice if I'd be running away from zombies. <i>lol</i></p>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-76205699972500941332022-06-19T09:26:00.005-07:002022-06-26T10:11:54.241-07:00Winter Outfit Essentials<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7bdy5SXM6oG7mJThn1tsdjlNx8T_-DfJbiQPt3om0hZWsu8OqcH6h0pTiitYvQGpr009zCYp1D5apo0fc5IXLVc-w6euxeSJyW9m7GZHuqMpnYP5RLrkeYvsmyOeHanlALpJmOjfKs-PjHgYe0BN1GxU-FElcYebKfAz4atZR9gHBD9Y2XBv21SB4aA/s750/InsertPic_11BE(0(06-10-09-33-11).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Waterproof winter boots" border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7bdy5SXM6oG7mJThn1tsdjlNx8T_-DfJbiQPt3om0hZWsu8OqcH6h0pTiitYvQGpr009zCYp1D5apo0fc5IXLVc-w6euxeSJyW9m7GZHuqMpnYP5RLrkeYvsmyOeHanlALpJmOjfKs-PjHgYe0BN1GxU-FElcYebKfAz4atZR9gHBD9Y2XBv21SB4aA/w640-h640/InsertPic_11BE(0(06-10-09-33-11).jpg" title="Waterproof winter boots" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> One advantage of living in a tropical country is that I get to enjoy more sun, and don't have to secure winter outfits, including <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/winter-boots ">waterproof snow boots</a>. Still, it is one of my life's goals to be able to witness winter even for a short period of time. I have a feeling that when that day comes, it's going to be a magical experience, at least for a tropical island lady like me. </div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Of course, if I have to spend some time on a winter wonder holiday, I have to prepare not only my bank account but also my wardrobe for it. This is why I was looking into winter-appropriate outfits which are not only cute but also perfect for the cold weather. Included on top of the articles I've read are winter-appropriate footwear. Come to think of it, everything in my footwear collection is party, summer, office, and sports ready. I literally don't have a single pair that I could wear if I were to enjoy winter. This is why I've come up with this list of basic winter outfit essentials anyone should have including me.</p><p>1. Snow Boots</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Although snow boots may not look as fashionable as other footwear, This does not mean that you can't have something stylish. We are so lucky that there are now millions of snow boots in fabulous fits that would not compromise our comfort against the thickest snow. What I think would be essential though is something that is waterproof. I do have these waterproof combat boots from Dr. Martens before, and I swear, it's always going to be among my favorites. Also, who wants to go around shopping or do other tasks you love when your feet are feeling cold? No one. Below is a photo of casual snow boots that I've found online Ion a site called <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/">shelivo</a>.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqelGUoHLXZX2rbGH7HxzOWyr3V3AW4nkOan-pqMz0oU1fw82XCejrItsmz4nKNFqtlWXebkjbosAjBb2szk_WT_HLpDhmXCaP3u3K4Pu4XyBlc4uWYYyXq6R_R8gn0wFtjZCLE3nyQ7Vq8KThPebbGxdCd5QZguAwZvGU0re8dgJ4l4CbQC2UjDtB0Q/s750/d8b327e521cc92ca0fa34f85b14749ca.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="waterproof winter boots" border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqelGUoHLXZX2rbGH7HxzOWyr3V3AW4nkOan-pqMz0oU1fw82XCejrItsmz4nKNFqtlWXebkjbosAjBb2szk_WT_HLpDhmXCaP3u3K4Pu4XyBlc4uWYYyXq6R_R8gn0wFtjZCLE3nyQ7Vq8KThPebbGxdCd5QZguAwZvGU0re8dgJ4l4CbQC2UjDtB0Q/w640-h640/d8b327e521cc92ca0fa34f85b14749ca.jpg" title="waterproof winter boots" width="640" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/winter-boots/products/female-slip-on-casual-snow-boots">Female Slip-On Casual Snow Boots</a></p><p style="text-align: left;">2. Wool Coat</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> We can have different jackets that could cover and make us comfortable during winter but something that I think is essential is a wool coat. Wool coats are not only extremely comfy during the cold days they are also elegant-looking making them an easy way to spice up your winter look. For a more fabulous style, try collecting wool coats in different classic colors such as beige and tan apart from the usual solid black color. </p><p style="text-align: left;">3. Faux Leather Leggings</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> I love leggings even without enjoying the winter weather. However, if you are now in colder parts of the globe, I bet it would be a non-negotiable term to have faux leather leggings. Contrary to the usual leggings one often wears due to their valued comfort, think of faux leather leggings as a great way to elevate your winter fashion. Plus, this clothing would look really good on you whether you are sporting a simple cardigan or a more structured coat. </p><p style="text-align: left;">4. Beanies</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> I've mentioned and it's already a no-brainer as to why you should keep your feet warm during winter days. But, don't forget to keep your head warm as well. Do this with the cutest beanies which you can sport in different colors and textiles. </p><p style="text-align: left;">5. Scarves</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of scarves but I always find them as one of those classic pieces of clothing that you can flaunt and style for your winter #ootd. What's good about scarves is that they come in different styles, shapes, colors, and materials that you can play with by layering two or three different pieces depending on how you would like to keep yourself warmer or more chic-looking!</p>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-25612092416438356242022-06-18T11:07:00.004-07:002022-06-26T10:09:24.658-07:00Qualities of Good Winter Boots<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjDlDPr4VfOHHSmDp8tEWG3hfyN4dybkKVFR2RI5S9LzZiQgj_GwWebFgEo496j2Ju6gebGtjcRXYpw0W1pjAikX_9vohn5VEtMckN9Yzfejc7RfmBsNUBx0jRXAJAsR7Hg9HidutzrEW9eX0UqEO2fkDrrXOlchcLFfzIybBEGYLza3AQUWWYg-5oDQ/s713/boots.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Winter boots" border="0" data-original-height="523" data-original-width="713" height="470" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjDlDPr4VfOHHSmDp8tEWG3hfyN4dybkKVFR2RI5S9LzZiQgj_GwWebFgEo496j2Ju6gebGtjcRXYpw0W1pjAikX_9vohn5VEtMckN9Yzfejc7RfmBsNUBx0jRXAJAsR7Hg9HidutzrEW9eX0UqEO2fkDrrXOlchcLFfzIybBEGYLza3AQUWWYg-5oDQ/w640-h470/boots.jpg" title="Winter boots" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> What we wear can greatly affect our daily activities, especially when considering the weather. While everyone is entitled to be creative when it comes to style, function and comfort are often mandatory. For instance, it wouldn't make sense for one to wear something sleeveless during the winter season, or a coat when the sun's out and high. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> Depending on the weather, footwear is something that must be looked into especially when one lives somewhere which has four seasons such as winter. Despite not being in focal discussions, having <a href="https://www.shelivo.com/collections/winter-boots">winter boots</a> if you get to enjoy an abundance of snow is a must. This is also true when your place could possibly go through a snowstorm. Not wearing an appropriate outfit and footwear during harsh winter days could lead to weather-related ailments or deadly conditions such as frostbite. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> How can you avoid such dilemmas? To begin with, find yourself a good quality winter boot that will not only serve its purpose but will also serve you for a long period of time. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">High-quality winter boots will keep your feet warm, and dry, as you brave snowy roads.

Warm</p><p>Insulation is very important when choosing winter boots. You have to make sure that your feet are not only comfortable but also warm. Winter isn't always harsh though, so you still have the option to opt for an uninsulated pair. Don't forget to always be updated on the daily temperature before sporting your footwear outside during the winter season. </p><p>2. Waterproof </p><p>In general, many people love footwear that is made of waterproof material since it will help prevent one's feet from getting wet. It is also a good way to keep the feet free from bacteria as footwear such as winter boots are prone to bacterial growth if kept wet. Also, wearing wet boots will only make your feet feel colder. </p><p>3. Has a slight heel and good ankle support </p><p>Similar to choosing your high heels, taller winter boots can give you extra protection against high snow. Plus, it will also provide you with ample ankle support that is necessary if you are wearing a footwear such as boots. Wearing winter boots with a slight heel, not too tall and not too short, can give you a big shot against the cold steps where your feet could possibly land on. Just be sure to choose a pair with enough flexibility to you don't have to compromise comfort over protection. </p>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-387668100974703082022-05-19T10:55:00.000-07:002022-05-19T10:55:03.316-07:00Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDsOGQVYyBkUTo3_tMIEPLtBfwNVm-yZYFSEkDuncTzaeUCnEYlV_maeHl6RMa0nJqE_LVQTttmMAet_HVXO0KqlXRvYjA7ddGusnkn4E08FMSyRH8qPz2vd9X1dj8EdyzBXCrjZYuLCIzjQH4gKe7KadiL1sXOzLtG4ErWWveWrhu3RVNqngX1VcHag/s4160/1970-01-20-095533110.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review" border="0" data-original-height="3120" data-original-width="4160" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDsOGQVYyBkUTo3_tMIEPLtBfwNVm-yZYFSEkDuncTzaeUCnEYlV_maeHl6RMa0nJqE_LVQTttmMAet_HVXO0KqlXRvYjA7ddGusnkn4E08FMSyRH8qPz2vd9X1dj8EdyzBXCrjZYuLCIzjQH4gKe7KadiL1sXOzLtG4ErWWveWrhu3RVNqngX1VcHag/w640-h480/1970-01-20-095533110.jpg" title="Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review" width="640" /></a></div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Hello friends! I hope you're doing all fine. It's been a while since I've blogged about a makeup product that I had so much fun doing. Don't get me wrong, I still love makeup a lot and enjoy putting them on, except during the long lockdown at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when I didn't really have to go out a lot. Now that the restrictions have loosened up, I'm now able to enjoy putting full makeup on with one exception and that would be my lipstick. I still love having them on but when you have to wear a face mask most of the time, you'll have to give it up. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> One makeup product that I always have with me is my eyebrow products. I would actually switch between my eyebrow pencil and my eyebrow gel. I love using both but recently, I've been using the eyebrow gel a lot as it stays longer which is really useful considering the summer weather that we are now enjoying in the Philippines.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"> I got my eyebrow gel from Nichido which is a popular Filipino brand. It's nothing high-end if we are to look into the prices of their products, but a majority of what I've tried from them really works. If you're curious about its Japanese name, it's because the brand has some help from Japanese consultants. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Having been using the product for a while now, I thought about taking some photos of it and writing a short review about how it works. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-1zDiG43xOKgfD1B0aDa6YykI-_ZMIxcpB7NWszuQqfscFXYXqufpedYmid9RPpHv8sGdgswHohQjwxhgvGXD10U-uryAD2G3VICF2UYQXBbusQ5VGG9mrM7BAvAppuZ6zIiTVUiGM34AwnBFuxdMwFtzgRTBo8BKlczD6zN2ov6ygyWQCHV-xkPU3A/s4160/1970-01-20-095533159.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review" border="0" data-original-height="3120" data-original-width="4160" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-1zDiG43xOKgfD1B0aDa6YykI-_ZMIxcpB7NWszuQqfscFXYXqufpedYmid9RPpHv8sGdgswHohQjwxhgvGXD10U-uryAD2G3VICF2UYQXBbusQ5VGG9mrM7BAvAppuZ6zIiTVUiGM34AwnBFuxdMwFtzgRTBo8BKlczD6zN2ov6ygyWQCHV-xkPU3A/w640-h480/1970-01-20-095533159.jpg" title="Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review" width="640" /></a></div>This is what the product looks like.

It has the right consistency, not too creamy and not too hard, although, of course, it hardens once it is applied to the eyebrow. When I was shopping for the gel, I only had to choose between two shades, but there might be more shades available. I chose the shade called Macchiato which is a bit lighter as I also had my hair colored light recently. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh68Flmo26siYLfIGg_aJC5bKivyFzZjGO1KPSEsbkmI8jdflBza12OMAyZUClUMkjRfXNXmGzbW8MPNlWcRWkDsgOYNkbCeHfI0RB2Zdajx5X3mGqjhs2ucRLsxWyKlnz21E6h01ogG38zgL2kzRV5wJox4aSBrqIvUwXHRzNQXKimbiEW1e4GZDEw_A/s2240/Untitled%20design%20(2).png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review" border="0" data-original-height="1260" data-original-width="2240" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh68Flmo26siYLfIGg_aJC5bKivyFzZjGO1KPSEsbkmI8jdflBza12OMAyZUClUMkjRfXNXmGzbW8MPNlWcRWkDsgOYNkbCeHfI0RB2Zdajx5X3mGqjhs2ucRLsxWyKlnz21E6h01ogG38zgL2kzRV5wJox4aSBrqIvUwXHRzNQXKimbiEW1e4GZDEw_A/w640-h360/Untitled%20design%20(2).png" title="Nichido Mineralized Eyebrow Sculpting Gel Review" width="640" /></a></div>Looking into the packaging of the product, everything that you need to know about the product is in its box container.

My hair was still very dark when I had the photograph taken, but now that I am sporting a lighter shade, it still works well. Also, it lasts really long. I do apply a bit of eyebrow powder on top of it just to keep it within its shape, but it also works without it. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> The product costs 291.00PHP. it was almost 5USD. Having used this for a few months, I do not have any issue with using the product. Considering how it works, I would say that I am satisfied with my purchase and I would happily recommend this to anyone. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><i>What's your go-to eyebrow product?

Not that you can't live without them, but having them can make so much difference in one's #ootd especially if you are attending formal occasions that require you to paint the town red. I for one haven't invested much in some of these undergarments when I was younger, and I wish I'd had them sooner. For instance, I was already in my early twenties when I started collecting matching nude underwear. It was after when I interviewed a beauty queen and asked her about one thing every lady should have. Her response was, "nude underwear".

However, that should not be the case. The key is to find the right shapewear that suits your size and is made of durable material. When it comes to shapewear, don't waste your time buying those of low quality at very cheap prices. They're just not worth it! Invest in shapewear that is made of high-quality material. Although it may be pricey, it will save you more as they definitely last longer. Similar to thongs, you don't need to wear shape wears daily if you don't want to. These clothing pieces are great when you are wearing figure-hugging clothes that will emphasize your curves. </p><p><b>COTTON PANTY</b></p><p>One of the reasons why I didn't collect the other items I have included here much earlier is because I used to follow only one rule when it comes to undergarments and that is they have to be comfortable before anything else. This is why a cotton panty is essential to any female of all ages. Not only do they provide comfort when worn, but they're also much recommended as clothing made of cotton material provides better functionality in absorbing moisture which is helpful for one's private area. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTI-1d7uEfHvVxTy-3ISo1U58H56CBPcNNUuTjOIGBeYDYywBXnq1zYzn7rasyHqCkhzRk90dWRSfYDE5HYJk6bGnx76BAc-A055f6ob0ztEjuIjvZ4CyL2lW9iMOKi1u3P36_FYP7taihkGo1mAJVK4FqkAdZcqeTscv8WfoemkbObupOGthB_MCkvQ/s2240/Untitled%20design%20(2).png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="ladies underwear" border="0" data-original-height="1260" data-original-width="2240" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTI-1d7uEfHvVxTy-3ISo1U58H56CBPcNNUuTjOIGBeYDYywBXnq1zYzn7rasyHqCkhzRk90dWRSfYDE5HYJk6bGnx76BAc-A055f6ob0ztEjuIjvZ4CyL2lW9iMOKi1u3P36_FYP7taihkGo1mAJVK4FqkAdZcqeTscv8WfoemkbObupOGthB_MCkvQ/w640-h360/Untitled%20design%20(2).png" title="ladies underwear" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.cosmolle.com/collections/underwear/products/airwear-free-cut-thong?variant=39759840608345">AirWear Free Cut Thong</a></div><p></p><p><b>THONG</b></p><p>Yes, thongs are sexy.

Despite having experienced the aftermath of Typhoon Rai (Odette) which has ravaged most parts of our country, there are still a plethora of reasons why a new year calls for celebration regardless of how humble or grand it may be. Now, the omicron variant of the coronavirus is working its way to induce anxiety among us. Truthfully, the situation in the Philippines is still far from </span><i style="text-align: justify;">normal - </i><span style="text-align: justify;">whatever that word means. While I don't want to be indifferent from the suffering of others, as I know there are some who are struggling to secure basic necessities, I want to take the start of the year as an opportunity to talk about something that I am passionate about. This is also something that has kept me sane through the storms of life especially during the past couple of years, this is </span><b style="text-align: justify;">art journaling</b><span style="text-align: justify;">.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><b>WHAT IS AN ART JOURNAL?</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">An art journal is basically just any other journal except that you can incorporate art to express yourself in it. It could be in a form of an elaborate painting, simple doodles, or photo collage. There are also no specific materials needed to create one. You may add in some stickers or create an artwork which I often do if my corporate schedule allows. Any notebook will also do so you don't have to go crazy over the ones offered by coffee shops. Personally, I choose the notebooks which I will use for my own art journal. I want them to be light so I can carry them wherever I go, and their pages should be thick enough for me to paint over them. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">I started keeping an art journal during my senior year in college when I've read about its pros in a </span><a href="https://spellsaab.com/" style="text-align: justify;">blog</a><span style="text-align: justify;"> post written by Saab Magalona, yep, she's one of Francis M's daughters. At first, it just was something that I do as a creative outlet for myself. Gradually, it has become more than that, after almost a decade of having one, it now serves as my private Xanadu, a therapist, a canvas, but way cheaper! </span><i style="text-align: justify;">lol</i><span style="text-align: justify;"> I have also learned that keeping an art journal, like practicing any other art form, has a direct impact on our holistic health. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><i>Through creativity and imagination, we find our identity and our reservoir of healing. The more we understand the relationship between creative expression and healing, the more we will discover the healing power of the arts. </i>- </span><a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2804629/">The Connection Between Art, Healing, and Public Health: A Review of Current Literature</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">There were times when I felt bored of keeping one but as its benefits weigh more, I have found a solution to free myself from boredom or from any creative constraints. That is through setting a monthly theme which serves as my basis for playing with the color palette and materials that I will be using. I abhor sameness so I try to think of a theme that is varied. Still, they all have to be grounded on something that interests me. It could be a poem, a song, or a certain season that makes me feel good. You'll see some of them in the photos below. <i>(above is my December page from my 2019 journal inspired by the works of Vincent Van Gogh)</i></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: justify;"><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: justify;">WHAT'S INSIDE MY ART JOURNAL</b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: justify;"><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Although the theme for my art journal changes every month, there are elements in it that stay the same.

Sometimes, I also do a specific list for my job. I divide my to-do list into two. A simple dash is added on basic tasks, while a hollow circle is reserved for events with specific dates. Once the event is over, let's say my appointment with my dentist, I then shade the hollow part of the circle which means the task is done. </i></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><b>3.

It could be a quote from a book I am currently reading or from a Netflix flick I've recently watched. As you've noticed, the elements have accompanying symbols. It helps me locate those sections faster as I browse into my journal. I just made them up so you can also decide on what symbol you'd like to use for each element according to your liking. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Here are some photos of my art journals from the previous years:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Here are some of the main uses of long latex gloves across a number of industries. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> Perhaps one of the most common uses of long latex gloves is going to be in a medical environment. There are a number of different diseases that are currently of concern to those who are practicing medicine, and there are a number of new diseases that are constantly going around. Wearing an elbow length latex exam and surgical glove can give you superior protection, especially whenever you are not in a controlled environment and there is the possibility of skin contact above the wrist. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">It will also be beneficial whenever you are doing certain surgical procedures that would necessitate body fluid touching above the wrist.
Numbers of different industrial settings can also make use of these latex long arm gloves as well. Anytime chemicals are being used, you would certainly want to protect your skin from contact. These longer gloves can protect you, especially where chemical spray is an issue. For example, if you paint indoor fixtures, you can use 18" long latex gloves in order to protect your arms up to the elbow from exposure to those chemicals. You can then use regular clothing above the elbows in order to protect the skin. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> The easiest place for you to find these gloves is going to be on the Internet, but there may also be some local shops which carry them as well. If you need them for a specialty purpose, there are websites which will cover the exact reason why you need to have them. In this way, you will be insured to have the most protection because the type of latex that is offered will be matched to the job that you are doing. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> One concern about these long latex gloves, just as with any type of latex is that you can develop sensitivity over time. This is especially true with latex long arm gloves, because your skin will be in contact with more latex and the powder on the inside of the glove will be in the air in greater numbers as you remove the glove. That is why many people are turning to powerless 18" long latex gloves. It is also possible for you to use non-latex gloves, but they are not going to provide you with the sensitivity that the elbow length latex exam and surgical <a href="https://www.pidegreegroup.com/Powdered-Latex-Gloves-pl6164226.html">Powdered Latex Gloves</a> would provide. Even so, it is a viable solution, should you develop a latex sensitivity.</div>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-9829847337799026142021-06-22T22:55:00.004-07:002021-06-28T03:46:17.515-07:00Stay in Shape without the Hassle with Durafits<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lt_b_IieHco/YNKzWKYiXxI/AAAAAAAAXFs/IOWJFm7QSgII8n7BKVp1aqe8W5W0a5v7wCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/body.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="body shaper" border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lt_b_IieHco/YNKzWKYiXxI/AAAAAAAAXFs/IOWJFm7QSgII8n7BKVp1aqe8W5W0a5v7wCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h360/body.png" title="body shaper" width="640" /></a></div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">For most of us especially women, staying in shape is a must. Of course, it can be achieved through proper diet and exercise. However, we may have some chubby areas that we are still currently working on, and perhaps, it would hell if we could hide them when we want to such as on special occasions which call us to look our best. It's no brainer than when we look good, we also feel good right? As such, how do we achieve it? The answer could be with Durafits. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Durafits is a small new company committed to finding light and comfortable fabrics to make women's shapewear. They do not only provide several styles of shapewear but also develop and create yoga sets. What they produce is something which are relevant and body-friendly. That is because they do not only cater to one body size which we often see on Instagram. Durafits also cater and create products for plus-size women and to those new mommies who are still working on getting their bodies back in shape. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">They do have countless products on their line of comfortable and durable bodywear but here are two which I truly adore and something that I would recommend for women of all sizes. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">First up are these two variants of full shapewear bodysuit . Bodysuit shapewear is great because it can instantly provide you with good curves and full support in targeted areas of your body. This is of course if it is of great quality. Plus, you can wear it more than many times and in so many outfits even when you're just at the comfort of your home if you want.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HTajRODoA4s/YNK4T8QRPbI/AAAAAAAAXF0/DCIDwaLplQgjPMGhUjXTp1b3Lbw-l7UtACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/body%2B%25281%2529.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="body shape wear" border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HTajRODoA4s/YNK4T8QRPbI/AAAAAAAAXF0/DCIDwaLplQgjPMGhUjXTp1b3Lbw-l7UtACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h360/body%2B%25281%2529.png" title="body shape wear" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p><b>Power Mesh Backless Full Body Sculptwear</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">This full body sculptwear will make any of your outfit look smooth and flawless making you feel more confident about what you are wearing regardless of its fit. This will provide full torso coverage and compression making your back look slimmer and fuller. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">This is made of a soft and breathable fabric that will not make you feel uneasy while enhancing your body’s natural shape. As a bonus, this has an open gusset for ease whenever you need to go to the restroom.</p><p><b>Plunge Neck Backless Bodysuit Shapewear</b></p><p>Are you going to attend a special occasion soon and worried about how you can sport your dress with a plunging neckline? Worry not. Durafits got you covered with their Alunge thong bodysuit shapewear. It has a low-back, low-front solution for when you're getting glam. It is also very comfortable to wear since it is made of soft, lightly padded cups and adjustable hooks, and removable straps.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nis6OIz7Isc/YNK9lIOiE8I/AAAAAAAAXF8/nRoCzP6H1dUnw7zC3bBifz7-3590V6jCgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/body%2B%25282%2529.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="body shape wear" border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nis6OIz7Isc/YNK9lIOiE8I/AAAAAAAAXF8/nRoCzP6H1dUnw7zC3bBifz7-3590V6jCgCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h360/body%2B%25282%2529.png" title="body shape wear" width="640" /></a></div>I also love their plus-size line which has some of the best plus size shapewear in the online market today. It's very versatile and yes, they do have sizes for almost every body shape which even goes up to 5xl. Here are two plus-size shapewear that I adore and you can even tell why just by looking at the photos above. <p><b>Plus Size Lace Full Body Shapewear</b></p><p>I love this primarily because of its decorative lace. It's very sensual and feminine and I've been a fan of laces forever so this is a big yes for me. This semi-sheer shaping bodysuit provides light compression at the tummy for all-day comfort and control. The straps here are detachable so you can wear them in many ways as you please. This also has mesh targeted on the tummy area which helps provide the illusion of a slimmer waist and tummy area.</p><p>Aside from its open crotch for bathroom access, this also has a silicone lining on the end of leg portions. So sexy right?</p><p><b>High Rise Brief Panty Flatten Tummy</b></p><p>If you're not a fan of full bodysuit shapewear, don't worry since Durafits also have high rise brief panty which also works almost similarly. This helps create a smooth silhouette under clothes. Just like their other product, this brief panty was created to comfortably shape problem areas and accentuate your waistline. Some of its best features include a double-layer fabric on the belly which helps prevent fat accumulation, so with this, you get to say goodbye to love handles!</p><p>Do you love my picks? I hope you do. If you're looking for shape wears, look no further than Durafits!</p>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-54993011418561979992021-02-07T07:38:00.001-08:002021-02-12T04:15:54.467-08:00Eye Makeup Trends You Should Try in 2021<p> <a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-01TUuKaHuNM/YBoxh1AgARI/AAAAAAAAWxs/d4Gu6FeWlMEClCj2dldefUWFpjVlGiQaQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/isi-parente-MsEP4AZ2aCU-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-01TUuKaHuNM/YBoxh1AgARI/AAAAAAAAWxs/d4Gu6FeWlMEClCj2dldefUWFpjVlGiQaQCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h426/isi-parente-MsEP4AZ2aCU-unsplash.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> It's been more than a month since we've welcomed a new year. Despite the challenges presented to us in the previous year particularly with the pandemic, the makeup industry is still thriving. When it comes to beauty, perhaps one of the things that 2020 made us realized is the importance of health in its cardinal state. With that, skincare essentials have become a priority. Getting rid or preventing maskne anyone?</div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> Speaking of makeup trends, 'less is more' notion is still super <i>"in"</i> in many mood boards for beauty looks including for celebrity makeup artists! However, because of health concerns specifically because face masks and face shields are now basically part of our outfits, the focus of makeup trends for this year goes to the eyes. The wearing of those protective gears isn't going anytime soon so investing in wholesale makeup for the eyes is very much relevant. </p><p><span style="text-align: right;">Aside from working on achieving those gorgeous lashes and "on fleek" eyebrows, here are three eye makeup trends you can play with this year. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-26ht1q9eo_s/YB_7WGWnOoI/AAAAAAAAWyk/OL4c88ioMFsYoyc8XuZfp4ogbLemhuqCQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/Untitled%2Bdesign.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-26ht1q9eo_s/YB_7WGWnOoI/AAAAAAAAWyk/OL4c88ioMFsYoyc8XuZfp4ogbLemhuqCQCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h360/Untitled%2Bdesign.png" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b>1. Fun and Colorful Eye Makeup</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> If you were scared to try fun colors on your eye before, now is the time to experiment with colors for your eye makeup. Since your eyes would carry so much of your overall look, it would be good to put some colors on your eye makeup. Even playing with the colors of the rainbow for your eye makeup would be a fun idea! This year, not only models on magazine covers will sport them, you too can rock the look!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b>2. Soft and Minimal Eye Makeup</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> If colorful eye shadows aren't your cup of tea or simply because it isn't exactly appropriate for your job, something soft and minimal would be perfect for you. Soft and minimal eye makeup doesn't necessarily mean that you don't get to enjoy putting your eye makeup, rather, you will work on monochromatic and shimmery colors that make your eyes pop sans the colors. You'll know that that's entirely a new art itself! Luckily, there are so many affordable makeup brands that will help you achieve the look especially when you are currently building your makeup kit.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b>3. Bold and Smokey Eye Makeup</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> Many ladies ditched their full glam looks consists of heavy foundations, concealers, contours, and blush on as a response to the wearing of face masks. It's a practical and timely choice given that our health is still our number one priority. Despite that, the bold and smokey eye makeup that we all love even before the pandemic remains to be one of the top eye makeup choices. It's the perfect look to show some personality in your eye makeup and to achieve a deep and sensual eye look. </div><span style="text-align: right;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="text-align: right;">Here are some eye shadow products from Anastasia Beverly Hills that will help you achieve the eye makeup trends above: </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lPrwiKj-eWo/YBoyt_sEkSI/AAAAAAAAWx0/zBIIdwripVEoahl4jeGUVxxmd2oEP_L6QCLcBGAsYHQ/s500/15904623160.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lPrwiKj-eWo/YBoyt_sEkSI/AAAAAAAAWx0/zBIIdwripVEoahl4jeGUVxxmd2oEP_L6QCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/15904623160.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Anastasia Beverly Hills Alyssa Edwards Palette</b></div><p style="text-align: justify;"> This palette co-created by the fun Alyssa Edwards is perfect for achieving that bold and colorful eye makeup look.

While we don't have four seasons like other countries across the globe, we have unpredictable weather conditions. Not that I am complaining as I am happy living under the tropical sun. These days, we are experiencing cold weather as it is the rainy season in the Philippines. Most of our time these days is really wet which I really don't mind. Regardless, I think it's great to make any season feel even better with your chicest, coziest, and stylish fashion staples.</span></div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Here are some that I would like to wear during rainy seasons. These are all women's outerwear outfit pieces which means you can definitely rock these.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Cardigan</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">A cardigan's power is its versatility. Also, it's very comfortable to wear and easy to style. You can wear it as you stroll somewhere, head to buy some grocery items, or even in your office when the temperature's chilly. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Moto Jacket</b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This tough-looking jacket is also essential. I love how wearing this instantly gives one a bad-ass look. Pretty much like the action superstars we see in films. A Moto jacket, aside from being comfortable to wear during cold days, is also easy and fun to style with. I could think of pairing this with a dress or pants and either way, I think it looks hella fine!<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fDVoja7FNu0/X5rqxYFkwnI/AAAAAAAAS9E/swL1KejcJqoSt8OF7a4rABJDhBjRj4FQACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/danny-g-up0dQOXzho8-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1362" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fDVoja7FNu0/X5rqxYFkwnI/AAAAAAAAS9E/swL1KejcJqoSt8OF7a4rABJDhBjRj4FQACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h426/danny-g-up0dQOXzho8-unsplash.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Boots</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">Booties are quintessential for fall or winter fall especially if your area would be enjoying so much snow. I personally think boots are really stylish whether it has heels or not. And maybe if you're a bit bolder, something with fun prints like snakeskin would do wonders. I'm also glad that even though we are in a tropical country, we can easily order any boots for sale through various online shops these days.</p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ftATWH3VU9s/X5rpd_R6EwI/AAAAAAAAS88/-W9PqnxiIe4flJSbAtKzTkAcdE8lKLr_gCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/marek-rucinski-wS2ugakf0PU-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1367" data-original-width="2048" height="428" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ftATWH3VU9s/X5rpd_R6EwI/AAAAAAAAS88/-W9PqnxiIe4flJSbAtKzTkAcdE8lKLr_gCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h428/marek-rucinski-wS2ugakf0PU-unsplash.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Blazer</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Regardless of the weather, whether it's hot or cold, I would love to wear a blazer. I love how chic it looks and how I could wear it to somewhere casual when paired with a simple white shirt and shorts or of course, somewhere formal like going to work. Blazers are a statement clothing item themselves and wearing it would not require you so much effort to look fab.</p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5i5ZudvdR3Y/X5rr-wZkmfI/AAAAAAAAS9M/1lhxMsMExPEnfevCNt8U38glwT37xUiZACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/kristina-petrick--poL3YQTBPI-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5i5ZudvdR3Y/X5rr-wZkmfI/AAAAAAAAS9M/1lhxMsMExPEnfevCNt8U38glwT37xUiZACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h426/kristina-petrick--poL3YQTBPI-unsplash.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Crossbody Bag</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">It is time for straw bags and net bags to retire once fall arrives. The cold weather is the time for leather or even faux ones to be the star. Crossbody bags are chic, stylish, and super functional. It's definitely one of my favorite pieces as it goes with almost anything I wear casually. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Black Pants</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;">We all love our khakis on summer or denim on a hot weather, but black pants are in once the cold is in. I love how you can pair black pants with almost anything and wear it almost everywhere. It can also be worn when paired with boots or loafers and youré ready to go!</p><p style="text-align: center;">Hope you like the clothing pieces I've included in this post! I found some really good pieces from the brands<span style="text-align: justify;"> which I saw online. Although I haven't ordered any clothing from them yet, what they are selling suits my taste and therefore inspires me a lot to experiment more on what I wear. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><i>love lots,</i></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><i>Tin</i></b></p>ღღČяїstinEεїзhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13595741268104208689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8398342618483829288.post-48471505657275343282021-02-02T21:10:00.004-08:002021-02-12T04:09:02.182-08:00Romantic Makeup <p> <a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_pN12gQuDIs/YBorwjvhcLI/AAAAAAAAWxA/1OTuMt-o5a4uSMdQVSnb2OflFsDRIjExwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/yunona-uritsky-ajM1jHa0dlg-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1716" data-original-width="2048" height="536" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_pN12gQuDIs/YBorwjvhcLI/AAAAAAAAWxA/1OTuMt-o5a4uSMdQVSnb2OflFsDRIjExwCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h536/yunona-uritsky-ajM1jHa0dlg-unsplash.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> February is finally here which means we will all be celebrating love in so many ways. Although love isn't something exclusive for couples, we cannot deny that spending time with our special someone is a great way to celebrate Valentine's Day. </div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> We all have our own ideas on how to celebrate the occasion. Be it with flowers, candlelight dinners, or a simple date out of course following sanitary protocols or better yet, staying home to Netflix and chill. Whatever that is, time spent with love is a great time. Regardless of how it may be, it wouldn't hurt to freshen up your look for the occasion particularly wear a #FOTD look that you yourself adores. For me who personally loves makeup, I find it so much better and yes, I also feel so much better when I have my face done and if I am satisfied with how I look. Just because there is a pandemic, it does not mean that you can no longer wear and e joy putting makeup on. However, for safety reasons, one can ditch the lipsticks and go straight and invest in really good eye makeup. That is exactly what I am doing which is why I recently checked some of the great deals online. I did saw some makeup products on sale and did a haul. I even saw some really good value <b>wholesale makeup </b>which I think are perfect for those who are in the makeup, modelling, or fashion industry. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Here are makeup products I found online which I can't wait to get my hands on. I think these products are not only of good quality but also perfect for achieving that romantic makeup apt for Valentine's. By the way, these are all from the ABH (Anastasia Beverly Hills) which I am sure a brand that you already know. They may be quite pricey which is why it would be perfect to have them while they're on sale!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-apiHzJCnUJY/YBosgELy3KI/AAAAAAAAWxI/tPhLmSpYJU4_5GXW3_od0EfUHwqMCrZoACLcBGAsYHQ/s500/14701398910.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-apiHzJCnUJY/YBosgELy3KI/AAAAAAAAWxI/tPhLmSpYJU4_5GXW3_od0EfUHwqMCrZoACLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/14701398910.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette</b></div><div style="text-align: center;">I really love this particular anastasia eyeshadow palette as this has that romantic glam colors that I want in a palette in order to achieve that romantic royal vibe that I would like to go for. This has<span style="text-align: left;"> 14 shades, including neutral and berry tones. From what I know, this product is also very pigmented and easy to blend! have you tried this eyeshadow makeup already? </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yxdeiZsumX8/YBotk4mg0kI/AAAAAAAAWxU/6EO7Kztn_l4SdbgaE-RU5ip9X5D90orswCLcBGAsYHQ/s500/15278477470.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yxdeiZsumX8/YBotk4mg0kI/AAAAAAAAWxU/6EO7Kztn_l4SdbgaE-RU5ip9X5D90orswCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/15278477470.png" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Glam Palette</b></div></b><p style="text-align: justify;"> As if one eyeshadow palette is not enough, I have another option in the store. I know it may sound crazy but despite having countless eye shadow palettes already, I still love them. I mean, diamonds are not the only best friends of a lady! <i>lol </i>This is the perfect collection of easy-to-blend, full pigment shadows. With a long-lasting formula, this palette is complete with bronze metallics and iridescent finishes ideal for a nighttime look and neutral mattes for daytime. A bit different from the Modern Renaissance since this palette does not focus on the berry tones, but still, if you are a fan of the neutral shades, this might be the perfect palette for you!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Y_ksKuT76SQ/YBoucxpbFZI/AAAAAAAAWxc/gk5_JeoYnAAsPGHUA7eGMXFSkFmb4HgngCLcBGAsYHQ/s500/14798051890.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Y_ksKuT76SQ/YBoucxpbFZI/AAAAAAAAWxc/gk5_JeoYnAAsPGHUA7eGMXFSkFmb4HgngCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/14798051890.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit - Sweets</b></div><div style="text-align: center;">A romantic makeup won't be complete with shimmer here and there. For that, the iconic glow kit of ABH consisting of shimmery blushes and highlights is a must! I super love putting on highlighters these days which is why I couldn't help but be a fan of this makeup. I'm not always particular with brands regardless if it's a premium or affordable makeup brand, I guess the most important thing is that they are safe to use and of course, authentic. Knowing that they are environment friendly and cruelty-free is a big bonus. With that in mind, ABH makeup products are really good investments. </div><p><i>I hope you love the makeup products that I've mentioned here. Have you tried any of them?
