Look how classy the box is.. Heart heart heart all over. 

When you opened the box, my sky blue Ztylus case is shouting for joy and coolness  in front of my eyes. It is very eye catching, indeed. 

This is the ztylus clip. It can be used in the car while navigating in the road calling someone or watching videos during the traffic.

Just got my first haul from Sephora Philippines with 5% cashback through Shopback. I got really excited when I learned that Sephora site is now available in our country. I might be late but hey this can be a bright future for both of us. Beauty products are love! Haha When I reached my midtwentish age, I started to be more concerned and aware with my skin and my glow. We need to start taking care of our skin to look young and fresh as always. That's the reason for the beginning of being a beauty junky.

My first haul was the Sephora 10hr wear perfection foundation. I bought it because I am looking for a way to look blemish free and a long wear foundation to eliminate retouching my make up every now and then.

Next, it will be the Milk Face Wash – Rosemary Peppermint Nori + Spirulina Extract Coconut. I am looking for a facial wash that will not make my face dry and flaky. Smooth skin is the best way to go especially for applying our makeup. It will look great. Less is more!

I will write a separate post for the reviews of both products. By the way, I want to share a little discovery about a new way to save and to have extra cash when buying online goodies!!! Yes! It is true. I bought the products with shopback and I got a few pesos in return. Woooh! Amazing! Online shoppers can enjoy discount or cashback when shopping with our favourite sites like Zalora, Lazada, Ensogo and many other online shops. Nagshopping ka lang, kumita ka pa!!! I can't wait for my next purchase.

Here’s a screenshot of the site:

If you only invest in one piece this season, make it the Eva blouse by For Love & Lemons. Cleverly combining two spring/summer trends in one, this top mixes romance and ruffles (and that’s all without looking like an 80s reject). From the sheer white chiffon to the bell sleeves, ruffled trims and tie neck, this is a killer top you’ll be wearing again and again.

Perfectly blending laid-back ease and a flirtatious attitude, the Eva blouse is super lightweight so it’ll keep you cool on those balmy summer days (and nights), while the plunging neckline shows just the right amount of skin without being too revealing. As well as being cut to fit loose in order to give off a relaxed look, this top has a keyhole detail at the back and a tie at the front so it can easily be adjusted to find your perfect fit, or left undone for a more daring look on days when you’re feeling brave. What’s more, it’s easy to style – looking just as good with denim cut-offs as it will with those culottes you’ve been dying to wear.

The Eva blouse has been selling out since its launch, but luckily you can still get it online at Lyst. Worn by street-style icons like Rumi Neely and Jill Wallace, get yours before every blogger (and your entire Instagram feed) beats you to it.

From the day I tried Keratin Blow dry, I become more concerned with the welfare of my hair. A little frizz in my hair makes me freak out. The time I was searching for a product to protect my hair from every day heat from ironing it. I saw this anti-breakage hair serum from Landmark. It cost 499.00 Php. The time I start using it, it help my hair to be more shiny and manageable. It smells like coconut. My hair seems to be on a healthy stage right now. Thanks to the anti-breakage serum, it boosts my confidence too. As they say, the hair is our crowning glory. It molds our identity. That is why we need to protect and nourish our hair. 

I will rate this as 4.5 stars out of 5 stars,
