Its official, i just turned another year old. Maaann time flies so fast today was surprisingly wonderful
even though I have other supposed plans for today (like going to Seoul and finally resigning on my current job) it pretty sufficed what I lost er uhmm postpone for my birthday.

My fam made a huge effort to ease my sadness with home version of Samgyupsal Party, Friends that I never knew appreciates me a lot messaged me, my Besties never failed to cheer me up and greet me, everyone was a bliss and sweet potions just spilled everywhere.

I am beyond happy today, Indeed its better if you dont have expectations because happiness would be more genuine.

But I guess my anxiety hasnt left yet it just pauses, well I hope that this 23rd chapter of my life would finally be a catalyst of opportunities, a chance for me to finally go to Step 1 of my Dream Ladder.

Jebal, Onegai. Please let this be my year.

Wholeheartedly, Chi.

wow it has been 4 months since i had wrote here on my journal.
Since 2020 came in there are a lot of fcking fckery happened in the whole world, i just felt so betrayed because I rooted for 2020 so much because 2019 wasnt that good as well, I was super hopeful but everything crashed down. I am super depressed rn to the point i really want to end it. I am lost, I am a mess.

March 31, today was supposedly our flight to Seoul, It had been super surreal for me because it is one of my dream travel destinations , I was supposedly experience Cherry Blossom on my birthday because our trip to Seoul was until the 6th of April and according to the forecast April 5 is the full bloom of Cherry Blossoms which is my BDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I was super hopeful and excited because We will celebrate my bday in Korea aside from that mhy parents finally approved my plead that I will resign in my current Job because I am not happy and It is not my passion that it always became a toxic and roots of my depression. I am finally gonna start prioritizing my Photography business, Liptint Business and Perfoming Arts Business.

but now all of these plans and dreams are ruined because of the fcking virus because we cannot longer travel to Korea because of the lockdown and travel ban and our business is on its grey side because after this pandemic business will have a big aftermath so my parents asked me to not "resign" on my job which is super frustrating and we will no longer push through our travel since the savings we saved up will not suffice the travel expenses anymore.



EVERTHING IS SO FUCKED UP.



its always like this and it makes me think that I always am the Jinxed fairy.

when it's always related to me or anything that has to do with me, it will led to something like this its as if telling me i am not gonna be happy, i dont deserve it or i am never bound to experience happiness.


I AM A MESS, I AM SO DEPRESSED.




I AM INDEED UNLUCKY BITCH


I AM INDEED A JINXED FAIRY.


FCK MY LIFE

Konbanwa~ Long time no post! I Missed everyone!
so we had another O-T-S and since the place kinda felt so forestry, I decided to tell my models to bring earth tone colors or even black will do.

Hey yo 'sup I wanna share to you guys these awesome products that I recently bought. I AM SUPER OBSESSED with this certain brand, been constantly stalking on their IG posts because it is very inspiring (the testimonies of their clientele) , the branding is indeed kawaii! you guys know kawaii stuff is my soft-spot that's my weakness, anything adorable, dainty, cute and fancy... I'll definitely need to buy them.

Anyway, it seems like the universe is really pushing me to buy a product from this certain brand.
With skincare prods, i am not really an impulsive buyer, I will not purchase them unless the product was used, tested and reviewed by few people I follow with regards about the skin care.

Apparently, i just like to scroll up and down on Skin Potions' IG, yes the brand im talking about here is a local beauty brand named: Skin Potions
but what gave me a push to purchase is the PRINCESS JASMINE MAKEUP PRODS!!!

Im just a simple girl ya know, when I see disney princess or magical girl characters such as Sailor moon, cardcaptor sakura, and Star Butterfly, I will immediately stop and buy them. lol

AND SO THE REST IS HISTORY. Since it was on an impulsive purchase, my budget was cut to just these products that I availed, I wish I can buy the whole collection but I don't really splurge or shop beyond my limit (yeah I'm a wise consumer but sometimes I get tempted, so I buy things that I don't need but they're not usually expensive)



SKIN POTIONS Dream Cream in the shade of Stella


This product is a tint and it only costs 249 php.
At first upon swatching it akala ko it is a liquid lippie or Liquid matte lipstick. HAHA

The smell of the product kinda reminds me of strawberry champola (if alam nyo yun friends na tayo HAHAHA).

The quality naman, para syang mousse type of tint kasi we have diff types diba like water, gel, ganyan ito parang liquid lipstick talaga, the applicator is nice na-iaapply ko agad ang product sa lips ko and idk di naman ako acidic or what pero pag nag dr-dry up na si product sa lips ko mas nagiging pigmented yung color and in this shade mas nagiging more fuschia pink siya sa lips ko.

Long lasting? YES! infareness na-try ko na siya at nagiistay naman siya for a longer time than gel and water-based tints na meron ako.
yun lang since parang lipstick talaga siya 'di siya transfer proof unlike tints diba na mga water at gel once nag dry up sa lips mo parang pigment na talaga siya ng lips mo.

Packaging 8.5/1
Quality 8/10
Cost: 8/10
will i recommend it ? : Yes!

Skin Potions Micellar Water

I cannot say much about this product kasi it does what it should do naman, it is what it is, micellar water.
For those who knows a micellar water, ganun din ito.
Para siyang makeup remover. The smell is similar to other micellar water, so again not much to talk about.
Siguro I would like to say is though the graphic layout/design is really kawaii just like how I like it
yung quality nung sticker parang regular matte sticker paper lang na-prinitan mo lang ng logo or design. Pero nevertheless it is still a good product.
I got this for 199 php

Packaging 6/10
Quality 7/10
Cost: 7/10
will i recommend it ? : Yes, pero i think there are more choices of micellar water in the market na mas cheaper so for "matipid" na consumer baka mas piliin nalang yung mas mura kasi they all removes makeup naman.



Skin Potions Princess Jasmine Makeup Collection


Jasmine Eyes


Let me just say how happy I am with this product!!!! the arrow-head applicator makes wonders especially to me who struggles with that winged eyeliner shiiz

it makes my life so much easier lol. the packaging is so beautiful!!!! it really feels like a product I will get from a modern Agrabah market hahaha!

Quality-wise it is long-lasting just don't sweat 'cos it is not waterproof and I tried wearing it while we had a dance rehearsal outside and it just smudges all over that my eyes look like a panda eye or somethin', price wise it's not bad after all, still under a reasonable price. 399 php

Packaging 9/10
Quality 8/10
Cost: 7/10
will i recommend it ? : Yes



Brow of Wonders- Light



THIS ONE IS A FAVE TOOOOO!!!
Im not good with doing my eyebrows and this product is really easy to use, it is pigmented and it is a 2 in 1 product (which i love the most) you get a pencil and a brow mascara in one HOW COOL IS THAT?! its only 499 php, again not bad for a product that can really make your life easier HAHAHA its also long lasting so YES FOR THAT. The packaging is yup same(cos its a collection)

Packaging 9/10
Quality 8/10
Cost: 8/10
will i recommend it ? : Absolutely Yes!



I purchased these Skin Potions Products at SM North Edsa 2nd Flr.


CONCLUSION:
It is indeed worth the purchase! Im actually happy that I finally like a Local Beauty Brand so thumbs up to that. Maybe Im gonna purchase their Tomato Serum and see if its worth the hype.


PS: I ACTUALLY TRIED TO RECREATE A PRINCESS JASMINE LOOK



that blouse is only 45 pesos sa UKAY hahaha
the danglings is 50 pesos sa 168 Mall
yung "headpiece" is actually a necklace and its only 25 pesos sa divisoria din HAHAHAHA



THANK YOU for stopping by!
