Sweet Pea

Time for another favorite! Recently, I have been trying out different scents on different stores and nothing came to my liking so I decided to use some of the products that were just lying around. I have been obsessed with BBW (Bath & Body Works) products years back and now, I have been dying to use these products again. Here are the things in the picture:

What's in my travel makeup bag?

These are my travel makeup bags. It is very convenient for traveling because it takes up only a little space and it fits some of the makeup that I need. By the way, the brushes that I bring will not be included in this post.

These are the things inside the biggest bag.

Hair bow

Must haves!!

Finally, I bring with me my Sephora cleansing foam to remove my makeup. I swear by this product because this literally melts all of the makeup I'm wearing. Also, I bring my Neutrogena Moisturizer and use this before I do my makeup everytime. This helps especially when the weather constantly changes when you go to different places, it helps maintain the moisture in your face.

One of my treasures

Here a few my treasured items. I just want to show how proud I am of reorganizing my accessory closet. It's actually just a table with a few compartments/drawers to place my rings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. and I call it the accessory closet. For now, let's deal with the bracelets and bangles ;)

More bangles and some stretchy bracelets.

OPI Ink

A New Year favorite! This will be the color on my nails until New Year. I just love the sparkly violet color and the blue reflexes! The picture below doesn't give much justice to this nail polish color because of the camera flash. :(

Now, the picture above definitely give it justice! See the pretty color with the blue undertone, It's perfect <3

This is one coat of OPI ink with base coat and without top coat.

'Tis the season to be jolly

I'm back with another blog post of my Christmas Eve outfit. Some girly girls out there wore dresses and sequins and glitter for Christmas. But I decided to embrace my simple side and go with the family's theme for this year's Christmas. Denim. Black. White. Red.
