FOTD - Plums n Berries

September 26, 2015
I never thought I would click a selfie in my entire life. I am a self-conscious person and the camera is not exactly my best friend. Posing for pictures is definitely not my forte.   Anyway, this is my very first FOTD on the blog. If you have been reading my blog from before, you would know that I have never posted lip...

Iraya Kumkumadi Balm - Review

September 24, 2015
    When I was not yet born and 'comzily' (as Junior says) living inside my mother, she heard that having saffron or kumkumadi would lighten the soon-to-be-born's complexion.

Lakme Absolute Lip Pout Matte Lip Tint in Raving Red - Review|Swatch|Lotd

September 08, 2015
  Looks like the chubby crayon trend is here to stay! I remember when I was in college, my mom and me would go these little 'fancy stores' where they would have a variety of beauty and makeup stuff. Being not that brand-conscious those days, I would find these stick-type lipsticks in some corner of the shop belonging to some unknown, imported brand. My...
