Movie's on us, Ayos diba?





Like this post if you love watching movies!

Hello Sunshine! I'm very happy to report that I've been doing some catching up on my must-see movies list. When the schedule's a bit packed, I regret to admit that I sacrifice the fun ideas the most. If I were a Sim, no one would be surprised if my Fun meter would be red! As much as I'm always carrying laughter in my pockets, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm enjoying all the fun that I want to enjoy--life happens, I always comfort myself.

Experience an Epic visual treat




Like this post if you want to watch Epic!

Hello Sunshine! What epic experience have you had lately? As for me, I had an epic massage treatment last Monday which til now, I can't get over of. It was truly relaxing and epic--it's a whole world of calm on its own!

Which brings me to more excitement of epic proportions because on top of beginning the week with an epic pampering experience, I will also cap it off with an epic movie premiere. What movie? Well, it should be obvious by now.


So excited because of Epic's voice cast. My goodness, I love them all! I can't imagine how fun it would be to watch such a cute and epic cartoon in 3D--especially after such a stressful and long work week! How about you, what movie are you seeing this weekend? If you don't have plans yet, watch the Epic trailer and see how quickly you'd be convinced to bring your family, friends, even loved one, to this amazingly epic visual treat.

Like this post if you love makeup brushes!

Hello Sunshine! Today I want to share a very simple tip on how to store or display your beloved makeup brushes. With this idea, you can prettify your vanity with a pop of color, and some homey sophistication--and some lovely fragrance to boot!

Things you need:
1. old vase (make sure it has a wide mouth)
2. potpourri (choose those that come in fun colors; scented is recommended!)

Simply fill your vase with potpourri but leave at least 1/3 of the vase empty. And it's just that! Simply prop up your brushes and voila, it's a lovely display of tools!

What is a skin toner?




Like this post if you want poreless-looking skin.

Hello Sunshine! Poreless skin is a dream for women. The smaller your pores appear, the smoother your skin looks like. On top of that, smaller pores means lesser chances of accumulating dirt that leads to whiteheads and blackheads, and sometimes even pimples and acne. So how does one achieve it?

One simple way to do it is to use a skin toner. A skin toner is something that most people overlook or understate because it seems like a futile effort. What does a light liquid contribute to skin perfection? What can a cotton ball do that a wash or a scrub can’t? Well, ladies, it’s time for you to open up your eyes and realize the importance of a skin toner—and just how much it can make life easier for you to achieve smooth and perfected skin.

A skin toner is ideal for people who have oily skin. When your pores are active in producing sebum, a common characteristic is for you to also be suffering from larger more visible pores. When your pores are visible, it makes your skin more susceptible to skin blemishes; likewise, it makes your skin appear to have a rough texture. No one wants that. To prevent, control and eventually, improve your skin’s condition, simply using a gentle toner to calm your pores can do the trick. The effect will not be instantaneous, but the gradual improvement of your skin’s texture and pore’s visibility, and even activity, will be more lasting thus life-changing.

A skin toner is also ideal to improve your facial cleansing method. Sometimes, when we wash our face, we’re unable to rinse as properly as we should. Residual soap may cause irritation, and continuing with such a habit may cause skin irritation. When you use a skin toner, you easily do away with all that worry, while also giving your skin that real chance to breathe.

So yes, don’t look down on that cotton ball. After washing your face, start the habit of using a skin toner and feel how your skin starts from being dull to glowing.
