Pet Cleansing Pad as Brush Cleaner
Pet Cleansing Pad as Brush Cleaner
So I thought it would be a good idea to use this pet cleansing pad in deep cleaning my brushes. You know, in the manner the Sigma brush cleaning glove is used.

Toshiba FlashAir Wireless SD Card
FlashAir Wireless SD Card
Toshiba
What is FlashAir? It is a wifi SD card. Basically, its wifi capability is only for file transferring, and nope, you cannot use the wifi to connect to the internet. Place the FlashAir to the SD compartment of your gadget (i.e. camera) and then transfer files into your wifi-enabled second gadget (phone, tablet, PC, laptop).

Rose Bud
Wet n Wild Megalast Lipstick
Rose Bud is a shade you can categorize as an MLBB (My Lips But Better) lipstick shade. It is a warm rose shade that is easily wearable either with light daytime makeup or smokey eyes. Because of its versatility, I recommend this shade.

Mint Julep Masque by Queen Helene
Queen Helene
Mint Julep Masque
Clay Mask
My skin is on the oily side. Browsing through Instagram, I found out about GlamGlow, but it is just too expensive. It is a face mask made out of clay and volcanic ash that draws out oil and blackheads on your face. Patches or dots of oil would be visible when the mask dries out. That means it is actually absorbing and drawing out the oil on the skin... but enough about GlamGlow.
Here is a mask that is much cheaper but utilizes the same principle - using clay to draw out blackheads and excess oil on the skin. Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque has bentonite. Bentonite is an absorbent clay. It is used to absorb grease and oil. It can also be found in commercial cat litter.

Yongnuo RC-6 for Canon
Yongnuo Digital
Remote Controller
RC-6 for Canon
This is a DSLR remote for the Canon EOS line. Okay, in a nutshell, this is a cheaper alternative to the original Canon infrared remote. Yep, maybe we can call it a China-kind-of-clone. It is small and easily misplaced so I would rather buy a cheaper generic one that works the same as the original. I actually bought this not sure if it will actually work on my EOS-M, and when it did, I was so thrilled.

Taupe
I discovered the wonder of taupe from the Lorac Pro Palette. I find it complements many skin tone. Since I have been fond of taupe on my Lorac, I am now hitting pan so I had to find an alternative. This particular blush has been popular for some time that it was often out of stock. Scored mine on a bazaar.

This is a very nice berry lipstick. Take note that you should exfoliate and moisturize your lips beforehand so as to avoid dry patches on your lips. Dark-colored lipsticks will definitely emphasize those dry skin.

Roshe Run Laser Crimson
Roshe Run
Nike
Women
Laser Crimson Colorway
Roshe is pronounced as ("ro-shee" or "ro-shi"). I am not sure if this is available locally here in the Philippines. So far, the Nike stores I have been don't carry this. I got mine from an Instagram seller.
I rarely buy sneakers because I actually rarely go out of the house. But there are times when your legs hurt and can't walk on plain flat shoes, let alone heels. So the shoe-obsessed girl part in me gave in to this lovely colorway of Roshe Run. Laser Crimson colorway is a ombre of neon pink and purple.
My Thoughts:
* It is the most comfortable shoes I have worn. It has this pads that is like walking on carpets.
* I wore this when my leg was sore from exercising, and it definitely gave support and lessened the pain when walking or going down stairs.
* The color is awesome.
If you are looking for sneakers, you can try browsing the Instagram store @nushuonlineph. They do meetups, and you can pay cash on delivery. This is an ideal since you can check and inspect the item first before giving your money.
Thank you for reading.
God bless. (^_~)

Tous les Jours Chocolate Cake
Just a sharing moment...
I really liked the artistry of Tous les Jours cakes. Plus points to them because the cake tastes as good as it looks. I wanted to buy the Bear cake, but I would not be able to cut into it... I don't want to hurt the bear! So I opted for this one. I asked the attendant for cakes which would not melt easily in this weather. He pointed me to this one noting that it would last for at least 3 to 4 hours before it starts to melt.

It was my first time to try out Yabu. It was a very filling meal. Unlimited rice, shredded cabbage, and miso soup! I do have a cold so I cannot be accurate on the how my order tasted. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it especially the shredded cabbage and it's Goma dressing.

Vinaigrette Salad
Vinaigrette Salad
- Quick Recipe
The star of this recipe is the dressing. It is something new you can try to graduate from the usual salad dressings like thousand islands or Caesar salad. It also has fewer calories and quite refreshing. It should be noted that this works best on iceberg or romaine lettuce as the dressing is runny. These two types are what I found best absorbs the vinaigrette dressing.

DrawNames.com Review
DrawNames.com
- secret santa generator
It has been hard to organize a get-together with friends especially when everyone seems to be busy or there are always schedule conflicts. It has been a tradition to meet up with friends for a Christmas Party even if it means our Christmas Party would be in January or even until February. That is how hard to get everyone to meet up. We wanted to have an Exchange Gift basically because we wanted to save money by having to give gift to only one in the group and give them what they want. I had my friends post their wish list so they can receive what they wanted. That seems the easy part. The hard part is how to get the bunutan to happen. Then, an idea came to mind - I wonder if there is a virtual bunutan.
I took to Google and there I found some sites. This one seems to be the easiest to understand. It is even on Facebook. DrawNames.com is easy to maneuver in. I asked for everyone's email address and told them to open the link sent by Draw Names. Once everybody has logged in. The drawing of names can start. You can also view your baby's wishlist.
Finally, our Late Christmas Party came, and I can say the Virtual Monito Monita is a success! Everyone got what they wished for. Next year, we will definitely do this again.

We had lunch at Wai Ying for our very late Christmas celebration. This branch is the one I had visited a few times. Usually, I get my Wai Ying hakaw and siomai fix at their 168 branch in Divisoria. Pictured below are what I ordered for lunch.
Hakaw is my favorite. I get this every time I am in Divisoria as well as their siomai. Hakaw is a shrimp dumpling. I like the Wai Ying's version because the wrapper is not a heavy dough.

We Pinoys love chicharon. What is chicharon? It is a double/triple/quadruple-fried pig skin until it reaches it's crunchy puffed-up state. R. Lapid's Chicharon is one of the most famous ones leading the market. They have many branches. One is particularly near our house so we are regular customers. Well, only when my seaman father is around because this is his favorite. I also like their vinegar. It is loaded with spices and can be hot too.
