Aido Classic Lipstick in Shade N: Review

I'm not sure if you guys have noticed this particular product in my collective haul last June but I just got to use this lipstick continuously these past 2 weeks and now I'm ready to give my verdict on the product.

I've used this for work. I personally planned to use my Artmatic Nutmeg lipstick topped off with my Fashion 21 liquid lipstick as gloss over it but our trainer wants our make-up to look lively so I chose to use this pink lipstick here.

Pros:
- Shade is lovely
- Super cheap (PHP 50)
- Available locally (bought mine in SM Makati Watson's)

Cons:
- Tends to dry the lips (make sure to apply lip balm before use)
- Not long lasting
- Hate the packaging (lipstick doesn't go all the way into the tube)

So after all these, would I repurchase? MAYBE. But only to try a different shade.

EOS E202 Green / Japanese Big Eyes Love Green Contact Lens: When Worn

Just as I've said in the video (below), this is not going to be a review because I've already posted a review on a lens of the same series, just in a different color. I'll just provide you with pictures and a video of how it looks like when worn since comfort and all that is pretty much the same.

Here's the video:

Now, here's my review on the EOS E202 (Violet) / JBE Love Violet.

A Good Surprise (Giveaway Contest Winner= ME!)

I don't know if you still remember my previous feature about Syuri/ Jasmine. Anyway, it's okay if you don't because I'll provide a link to that post HERE. Do check that post out so you can view the links to her youtube channel and blog. Do follow her and subscribe. :)

Anyway, I mentioned in the previous post that I joined her giveaways and yesterday, I was really tired because I went to Makati for final instructions on my upcoming training and when I got home, I checked my youtube channel and I found out that I won her giveaway! Yay! :D

I watched her video announcement over and over again just to be sure it was really me who won and yeah, I was really excited that I did win! When the announcement finally kicked into my system, I got up and jumped around the house! I was super duper happy! I told my mom (and all the people around the house) about the good news and a big smile was plastered all over my face. After all the ramblings and such, I went back into my room and thanked Syuri through comments and sent her a message in youtube. Anyway, I'm just super duper happy and until now, I just can't hide my happiness about what just transpired. It was my first time entering a contest through video response and I'm just overwhelmed I won.

Anyway, once again, I'm enouraging you all to follow her blog and subscribe to her youtube channel. She's such a sweet girl and she's got great tutorials (both inspired and original looks). And if by chance, Jasmine drops by this blog post, I'd just like to thank her once again. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!

That's all for now, bye! :)

with love, Anna Luisa
