I have a sweet little secret: I’ve been secretly hauling from VMV the last two weeks. *snicker* My sneaky love affair was jump-started by this little zit from the first week of December:

Two weeks into December and I won’t stop breaking out. The weather, pollen allergy (I live in a massive greenery remember?), and holiday stress just made everything worse. I wish I was kidding but I’m talking ’bout red patches and painful, red pimples that won’t dry up nor stop multiplying.  At one  point I even got an awful hives attack! Oh to have sensitive skin! :(

I finally surrendered and ran to the nearest SM to score the kit above. I would’ve purchased the items off the Id range but they didn’t have the lotion in tow (which to me btw is the best VMV product to date). Just when I was about to ring the trio I removed the moisturizer because I remember having generous samples of the Re-everything Face-Hand-Body Lotion. I thought it’s the best time to road test it as well.

WAIDAMINIT. FOTD on the title? Are you on the right blog? LOL

Yesterday, I had to put on a pretty mug because it’s my aunt’s 50th birthday slash thanksgiving. It was Hawaiian themed and that alone caused an anxiety attack. You see, I love the beach and all but I never like being glammed at my kind of paradise. I just like wearing boardshorts, a tank, and gazillions of SPF. Gov hinted me and my brother to dress up and not just wear our pambahay (aka. boardshorts and tanks). Challenge accepted, I wore a dress that I would probably wear in a yacht party in Hawaii. And they didn’t get it. LOL What they got was 1) I made and effort to fix my hair and 2) me and my mom were wearing falsies because we’ve come to accept that we have the shortest lashes in town.

This is the look I sported last night. Too bad the lippie didn’t last as long as the eye makeup. :(
