There are different and so many new products in the market nowadays, making it difficult to decide which one is right for you. Well, it’s good news that with GlamBox you get to try the latest deluxe samples from the finest beauty brands to discover the products you love. GlamBox is UAE’s innovative way to experience the latest skincare, hair products, fragrances and make-up from the unsurpassed brands, in the comfort of your own home.

As promised, here's a review of my first April Glambox.



Let me start with the delivery process which was very punctual according to their declared delivery dates. Also, to make sure that the items will be delivered with quality, Glamistas made used of a very good courier service here in the country.

When it comes to packaging, I would say that it was well presented with a chic pink box and glamorously accented as if I was really opening a very nice gift.




As I've opened my Glambox the contents were as darling as how it was wrapped. ♥

So, without further ado, here's what's inside my new vanity box.


Kelly Van Gogh - Wonderlust Hair Illuminating Tonic
One of my favorites is this hair spray which gives a natural vibrant, fresh scent and a natural detangler to my hair. I love the shiny effect on my hair. It gives a soft feeling and healthier look. Though it was a bit messy because I had some glittery sparkles all over my face, shoulder, arms and even on my toilet floor :) 



Gatineau - White Plan Skin Lightening Serum
This small bottle of serum provides a lighter and reduces uneven skin tone. Since it was very small, I've only used it on some parts of my face, especially on the dark skin under my eyes. It moisturized and give a finer feeling on my skin. :)


Elemis - Pro-Collagen Quartz Lift Mask
I don't usually use anti-aging creams, but out-of curiousty, I used this "wonder cream" for couple of days and it sure has a lifting effect. It hydrates and leaves a smooth feeling on my skin. I know I am still young (*wink) for this kind of product but I guess I should start using this mask as early as now, not just considering my age but also giving a pamper to my stressed skin. This is also, one of my faves :)


Carolina Herrera - 212 VIP Fragrance
I love the cute capsule bottle. I would say that it has a very sophisticated, feminine and warm scent. It can be used at any time of day, any season and indeed has a long lasting fragrance. Though, personally I would say that this isn't my kind of perfume. Well, it is more like my mom's type of scent. =D


Lancome - Rouge In Love Lipstick #322
yes, these are my lips :)
It has a creamy finish. I love the color but maybe it isn't just my personality to wear a pale shade of lipstick. It is a chic color, perfect for the season and for an everyday make-up. It provides a light and moisturized texture and has the long-wear-time ability to stay on the lips without smudging.

♥ it!










The title does not actually mean 'healthy breafast' rather literally "hearty breakfast" : )

I was quite in the mood to prepare something creative this morning that I spend a little time cooking our usual fried egg.

Thanks to my egg heart-shaped molder that I've bought in Daiso for making my morning craft a lot easier.


 
  
Ok.... the yolk didn't turned out quite nice, though the heart shape was perfect.... bcoz this craft is usually done medium fried, but I decided to do it well-done by flipping the shaped egg in the frying pan and lightly fry it for a minute more =D


Neutral or skin tone eyeshadow colors has been staple for my daily quick make-up strategy. It matches all shades of lipstick and indeed a safe color for any season.

I've also used Avon liquid blush-on , Revlon Lipstick and Max Factor foundation to achieve a smooth and matte skin tone =D



It's almost weekend and we are having a bit of crazy good time in the office =D

thanks rochel for these sweet beans from pinas! =D


bubble wrap from one of my suppliers in Paris.... yeah! i am addicted popping it.... stress buster! =D


i am invisible....... :)

It has been a long time since I had my nail art done. Yeah, I'm missin' it....=(

I have my nail art machine with different templates that makes the artsy a lot easier. Here are some of my newbie artworks =D




i luv this one =D



thanks to my nail art machine! I'll work with you again - - - soon!


Whenever there's an upcoming occasion in our office, I am always in-charge of the crafty gift for the celebrant. Well, yesterday was my boss's birthday, and as usual, I've been spending sometime thinking of something creative that I haven't done for her in the past years.

Good thing that I have my art & craft gadgets in the office, I manage to make a scrapbook inspired birthday card. It was mainly covered with a fabric; printed with my own design and accessorized with some buttons and beads were scrap from our tailoring department.

Here are some snapshots of the card I made! =D







I also made the happy birthday fiesta banner =D




I am very much in love with lipstick. I guess any color just suits my complexion. My personal favorite is wearing a matte red lipstick that stays for almost the whole day. Well, in my busy kind of lifestyle, I just wanted to look good even without being always in my vanity area.



No other make-up, just my Revlon Brick Red Lipstick that stays all day!



These are from Vincci's new Spring 2012 collection and I am really happy I bought these lovely and comfy shoes and sandals! =D

luv this turquoise color!



girly fuchsia! =D
