The 92 Liner

Hello! It's my first time doing an unboxing and I hope this won't be the last one. ( This is not

We have an internet connection at home which is the ACCTN(?) cable (now Converge). Since I was hired in Makati and I stay at my uncle's house in Pasay during the weekdays and I go home on the weekends in Angeles City, Pampanga, and I wanted to stay online or connected to my boyfriend, I decided to get my own pocket wifi.

My uncle's family uses SUN pocket wifi. My room is on the 2nd floor and they stay at the 3rd floor. It's pretty hard for me to connect to their wifi and it's very slow most of the time. But that's another story. So during my first week of stay there, (August 18-22), I had plans of getting one.

I researched, read blogs, reviews, compared the products of SUN, Smart and Globe. By the way, I am a Globe subscriber. Until last week, August 24, I purchased my own pocket wifi.

Here's my experience at Smart center.
Going to the mall, I wasn't still sure what I will get but I headed instantly to Smart. I was there by 4 P.M and I asked about the product that I will get. The salesladies are very kind and are willing on entertain you. I had second thoughts so I said I will first check out SUN and Globe. To make the long story short, I finally decided to get Smart's. ( They were on sale!)

They let me filled-up a form and they gave me a number. There were just 2 sales staff and they took ages! The number was I think 58 and I was at number 68! I waited for an hour and a half already and the number is just at 59! Luckily, the guard helped me process my application. He headed at the backroom and he said to wait. After 5-10 minutes, there was a lady who was assigned for my application and processed everything. So it was so much faster. If I waited, I have stayed there for 3 hours or more!

I found it slightly hard to charge. I saw it charging (the battery bars where moving) but after a few minutes when I looked at it again, the bars are not moving. I turned it off, and saw a big battery bars moving and I let it that way. I looked at it on the 3rd hour of charging and the battery is complete. It won't show you that it has been fully charged so I assumed it was.

Brand: Etude House
Line: I'm Blooming
Name: Brightening Wash off Gel

Let me start off by sharing what the product is about based from their website.
"This transparent gel-type daily wash-off gel gently removes dead skin cells, providing smooth, supple skin for a milky-white complexion. With ingredients that strengthen skin's natural vitality, this cleansing gel helps maintain fresh, blooming, healthy skin."


My thoughts
When spread on the skin, there are tiny, soft particles that I believe are the scrubs to remove dead skin cells. They are very gentle on the skin that even you press your fingers/palm you won't feel a tingling sensation. That is what I liked most when I used it. I like that after I used this, I felt that my skin was smooth and fresh and also blooming as what they said on the website. I think it's true. The product is very light.

Overall, my rating for this product is 4/5.

I like this product for removing dead skin cells. But I have second thoughts on it's whitening effect. For now, I don't think I will purchase the full size.

First of all, Happy Valentines! Posted this on the day before Valentines :) I hope everyone will have a great time with their loved ones.

For February, I think this nail polish color is perfect for V-day. It's Caronia in Baby Pink Regular. From all the nail polishes, when I saw this color, I instantly thought of Valentine's day. Caronia is one of the famous nail polish brand in the Philippines. And from what I experienced, their nail polishes are long wear. Going back to the #NOTM, when I see the color on my nails, the words that pop out on my mind are sweet and candy! I really really like the color and I would definitely wear it again in the future. I like how the color on the bottle is really the color you will get on your nails.

Here are the photos I shot under the natural light. I see that on the photos, it didn't show it's true color, but still kinda close :) So here they are!

For healthy, youthful looking skin. Who won't get caught with this enticing phrase at the box of the "Myra E Facial Moisturizer." Plus the never ending commercials which some actresses use to achieve a whiter skin.

I have used this a year and a half ago(?) in a sachet form and I didn't like it. I felt like it made my skin darker and it did nothing on my skin. But last year, I tried to give it a chance, bought the full size product and used it for at least 3 months.

My thoughts:
For the packaging, the container of the product is glossy. And if you open the cap and squeeze the bottle (or just let it come out by letting the product opening facing down). The product is cheap. I don't remember the exact price of it but I think it ranges from 100-250 pesos? (Please correct me if I'm wrong.) But from the product you get, it's definitely worth it. It has a lot of product and you just need a bit when you apply it. You can use it for 3 to 4 months.

Basing on whats on the packaging of products, on how in works, I say that it didn't give me a "youthful glow" and again made me feel like my skin was a bit darker like what I felt before. It also didn't make my skin supple, unlike the Myra E Face Lotion, which I will be making a review later on.

For the product itself, it has a very thin, slightly watery consistency when applied. Definitely thinner than the Myra E Face Lotion. It's easy to spread and definitely not greasy. It's okay to apply it in the morning, under make-up and or at night like what's on it's box. On what you'll see on the photos below, it didn't show a bit watery but you'll feel it when u apply it.


Finally, I think it didn't moisturize me at all. Overall, I was not impressed with the product and I'm on the look out in finding a product that will moisturize my skin and have "the youthful glow." Will I buy it again? Considering there are a lot of products out there to try, I won't.

Rating: 2/5

Hello!

Before having this blog, I had my nails colored once or twice a month. Since I have a blog now, I thought it would be great to share my choices for my nails now and also for the future. To kick off this month's #NOTM (Nail of the month) I have for a color teal on my nails.


I have to be honest that I don't own the nail polish I used in this month's NOTM. This is from the manicurist that did my nails. I also forgot to check the color and brand of the nail polish. (I'll try to know this, but for now, I don't know it.) But in the future posts, I won't forget to check it out!

I wore this polish on the entire month of January. I got compliments of this nail polish color saying it looks great. One was when I was on a drive thru and the staff that took my order asked if it was some celebrity's nail polish(?) and asked what color was it because it looks good. I just said that I didn't know, because I really don't know. Haha

Anyway, I liked the color but what I didn't like was after a week, there were parts that chipped off.

Overall, I give this polish 3/5.

As you see in the photo above and below, it's white and thin shape makes the product look very simple. Also, I was excited to buy an eyeliner pen because its my first time to use a product like this.

I must say that when I was looking for an eyeliner pen in the mall, I saw a lot of different products but I bought this one because it was cheaper than the other products, but still expensive for the result it gave me. Continue reading to know why.

TAKEN A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT IT.

MY THOUGHTS:
As you saw, the eyeliner has a felt tip which I think makes it easier to make a precise line on the lash line. When the sales lady showed how it works, I was more excited to see that it made a clear black line in which you can make a thin or thick line. The felt tip of the eyeliner of the sales lady has a lot of product so that's one of the factor that I made me buy it.

However, when I got home and tried it, the felt tip is just dry and can't draw a dark, precise line. I was very disappointed with it considering how much I paid for it. Then I texted my friend, which was with me and also bought one, and asked how was the eyeliner. She said that it was also dry. So I let it sit, the felt tip facing down, and tried it the next morning and one the first three tries, the drawn line improved a bit but not as good as the sales woman have.

Applying on the upper lash line, I should put it with the eyeliner slightly lying to make a darker line but it gets thick. When worn after an hour or less, the eyeliner falls down on my lower lash line. It's definitely NOT a smudge proof eyeliner. I can't make a precise, dark line which I hoped for.

TAKEN A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT IT.

On the above photo, I smudged it using just my finger and using with Etude House Real Art Cleansing Oil. See how it did.

Overall, I was very disappointed with the product. Will I buy it again? If given a chance to try the real product before I will buy it, I'll give it one last try with a great doubt.
