FOTD: Fab Working Girl Makeup Look

I love being different. It’s not that I want the attention but more of, I dislike looking like someone else. I value the feeling of being an individual a lot and, as much as I can, I try to deviate from the norms as long as I’d still be able to comply with what’s expected from me especially at work.

FOTD: Sweet Sunday Makeup Look

I have slowly been adjusting to living in a new environment. I got used to the simple and peaceful life in the province (after almost three years of staying in Pampanga) and then all of a sudden, BOOM! I’m back in Manila... And not just any place in Manila, I’m in Katipunan!

FOTD: The Millennial Alpha Makeup Look

It was in college when I first watched an episode of Sex and the City and immediately got hooked. After that, I’ve dreamed of being a writer, living on my own, going on night outs with my friends… But those didn’t happen all at the same time and things weren’t as easy as how I thought it will be.

FOTD: Corporate Glam Makeup Look

I have been pretty stressed and busy lately at work. It kind of feel like I need something new or a change in my routine. I have thought getting a haircut a week ago but I remember that I have been trying to grow my hair longer because I’d want to have it styled wavy or curly at the bottom… So short hair? Not today. And then it dawned on me that I have been doing the same makeup look at work over and over again. I need to start being creative with my makeup looks again! And now you might see more frequent FOTD posts from this blog (which can also mean more makeup purchases to be able to experiment more)!

So shall we begin?

FOTD: Casual Weekend Makeup Look

It’s been awhile since I last posted a makeup look, right? I’ve been keeping my look really simple these past few months because I’ve been really busy and stressed with a lot of things; but still there are some people who have asked me about the makeup look I normally wear on my selfie photos. I guess it’s still worth blogging about eh?

FOTD: Daily Office Girl Makeup Look

 

Work has been piling up these past few weeks because of some changes and challenges in our organization. Plans, reports, layouts… Handling the Marketing and Communication isn’t a walk in the park, I tell you. One must be, somehow, a visionary and can continuously innovate and fast to adapt to changes.

FOTD: Casual Friday Makeup Look

I didn't put makeup on for almost a week because my skin was still in its "light peeling" process since I burned it from last weekend's Zambales beach trip with my family. I usually just fill in my brows, use lip balm, and pat on a powder lightly all over my face; but this Friday, I think it's almost okay. So after applying moisturizer on, time to get my glam on.

FOTD: Feeling A Lot Better

So I was not feeling well yesterday and spent the whole day resting and sleeping. But because there's so much work to do at the office (not to mention the projects I've started outside of work), I needed to get well really fast. Thank God that I'm feeling a lot better now but still not fully recovered though. I will miss a week of working out at the gym (boo!) but as soon as I get better, I'm so going back to working out. I need to be at my 100%.

FOTD: Fresh Office Girl Makeup Look

To tell you quite frankly, I'm not a big fan of summer. Well, I guess when I was still in school I would count down the days when summer would come just because I can stay up late, wake up late, and just play all day; but it's different when you're already working.

Summer? Ano 'yun? (What is that?)

FOTD: Receiving That Good News

I forgot to set my alarm because I fell asleep while I was watching "The Skin I Live In." And when I woke up, I accidentally fell asleep again. Oh that post Christmas weather just makes you want to sleep for the whole day. So when I finally got up, I rushed to take a bath and I really feel like putting makeup on. I just don't want to skip makeup for today, and so I did. Just a quick swipe of this and that and I'm done. I guess that sufficed.

FOTD: On the 25th of December

Merry after-Christmas everyone! A lot of you may have been on an out-of-town vacation, or attended/attending a family reunion this Holiday Season, but for me, this year's Christmas has been the simplest and one of the most meaningful and sincere one I have had.

FOTD: Inspired and Living the Life

My life isn't perfect and at times I have thought of it as recklessly lived and crazy; but I guess my decisions in life (both the good and the not so good) have led me into living a life, I can call, my "almost dream life." Almost because nothing is perfect and, in a way, I can say that I am pretty happy with how things have been going. I am at the peak of my career, I am in a good relationship, I live on my own, and I still have time to spend with my friends and family.

FOTD: Prettified Busy Bee

I wasn't able to blog last week and my busy work schedule is to blame. But even though things are just getting busier and busier at work, I think I'd still love to share with you my makeup look for the day. I do wake up early for my makeup still because I wouldn't want to be busy and not look presentable at work. I remember how I wasn't able to wear makeup yesterday and it just kind of felt odd. I love putting effort on how I'd look at work because I love going to work and I would always want to be at my best everyday even if I just get to sit 8 hours a day doing graphics, writing, editing, and being stuck in meetings.

FOTD: I Miss You Summer

Whenever it's summer I would constantly hate the fact that it can be too hot! Since I work for Non-Profit Organization, work will sometimes entail me to visit some places that can make me sweat like crazy and I hate feeling all sticky and sweaty (unless, of course, during workout sessions). I feel like I want to run back home and take a bath for an hour! Can you feel me, sister?

FOTD: Be Your Teenage Dream Tonight

Have you ever had that weird, awkward, and yet amazing moment when you do not expect things to go that way but it did? I guess, in a way, things work out for the best and the things we least expect to bloom often seems to turn out to be the one we are waiting for. Or at least for me that's how things have been going - weird, awkward, but amazing.

FOTD: Forever Young

I'm turning 25 in two weeks. Yes... My birthday is coming soon. And you know what they say when you turn 25 - you need to start using a good anti-aging moisturizer to keep your skin from aging! With that being said, does it mean that 25 is the age when you can truly call yourself an official adult?

FOTD: Running Some Errands

I prefer taking my time when doing my makeup. I will keep on checking if my makeup look is fine at all angles and I like, spontaneously, coming up of my makeup look or theme for the day on that same morning when I'd be doing it. So, yes, I do wake up early when I do my makeup. But there would be times when I prefer just putting something light on and go to work or do my groceries and all those stuff.

FOTD: That Subtle College Girl Makeup Look

I miss college. My four years in college is what I can consider as the best four years of my studying life. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed highschool (as some would say it's what they miss more) but it was in college that I was able to figure out who I really am. In college, I met new friends, who may all be very different in many awesome and crazy ways, but compliments my personality well. It was, also, in college that I was able to understand what it is that I would like to do with my life.

FOTD: Summer Siren

It has been raining pretty hard lately and because of the typhoons, which has been hitting our country recently. We have been experiencing a lot of challenges that requires our tough spirit and strong will to overcome. At times like these, I miss summer. Although I hate how hot it can be during that time of the year, how I would sweat endlessly if I'm out, and personally I love the cold summer rainy days; I miss going out and not having to worry about bringing an umbrella, I miss going to work all dry and I miss not having to worry if there would be a power interruption or if it's going to flood in our area.
