Image
I have been obsessing with my eyebrows for quite a while now. I've always filled it in with eyebrow pencil whenever I feel like it. I face days when the inner engineer in me triumphs and I put no make up at all. This happens most especially on days when I am busy at work.

I didn't until this infographic. I would only trace my existing eyebrow lines. Well, the end result is good as I shape my brows often. I am not comfortable when little growing brows begin to show up. I hate the sight of them. Anyway, I am sharing my cheat sheet here. Enjoy, ladies and let's shape that brow often. It makes your face a whole lot fiercer. Courtesy of: Alight Connect with the writer

Every Woman’s Guide to A Glamorous Summer

Image
It is every woman’s goal to always look her best all throughout the year, but once we reach the calendar months of March or April, the pressure is double. Summer is an exceptional time for anyone who loves the holidays, vacations, and bikinis.    via As you plan your getaways, here are some tips on how you can get yourself ready for your most beautiful and glamorous summer vacation: Glorious Tresses It’s not only your skin that needs protection from the sun. Use hair care products that have UV protection. Look for products with sunflower or helianthus annuus which is an all-natural UV protectant that does not only protect your hair from the sun.

I thought these weekly catch-ups kept me up-to-date on everything I would need to know from fitness and health, to the economy and other current events, to fashion and beauty. Apparently I was wrong because, as I found out last week, all of my girlfriends are taking part in a beauty regime I hadn’t even thought about: Anti-Ageing Prevention. In my mind, anti-ageing skin care was for my mother – or even my grandmother! Sure, I’m no spring chicken as I’m pushing 30, but I was a little horrified when friends younger than me were discussing their plans (and immediate action!) for preservation. I began to panic this was another thing I should be worrying about! After some research , it became clear that taking steps towards preserving what I have now would be much easier than trying to restore it once it’s started to fade – or, rather, shrivel and shade.

Operation Super

It's been awhile since I have been wanting to try out the Superfood Smoothies. After the lemon water, this maybe something that I could really force myself to invest in. After all, it's for my health, right? I need those basic intake, cancer-fighting components and acai vitamins . Before that, I need to double and even triple think of the budget that I need to put in this one. Switching to a Superfood diet entails a lot of investment -- financial, time (of course, blending in the ingredients) and self-control. This week, I have eaten two guilty meals in the form of giant burgers from Brothers Burger and Jollibee. Ohmy. So, here are what I need. A Reliable and Fun Blender There are lots of blender discounts from TCAT   and I am kind of confused which to get. As of the moment, Shake 'N Take grabs my attention. I like the white lid and it is the cheapest of the three. Sports Bottle Blender is also a drink-after-you-blend type of blender, but I don't like its appear...
