Accessories For Your Crowning Glory

10 / 23 / 15

Our hair, especially on women is regarded as the crowning glory as it gives women a character and beauty and is often considered her best feature. There are different types of hair, the straight and the natural curly hair.

Some women like it short, while some wanted it long. Personally, I want a long straight shiny hair. But my hair type is naturally curly, so I opted to undergo the rebonding treatment. For awhile, I love the effect of having a straight hair and it did give a boost on my confidence. I love that I got the “clean look” because I can just let it down and won’t worry to get it all messed up because it does when it’s curly. hahaha. But that’s just me.

Another thing that you can do with your hair is that you can accessorize it without cutting or even if when you got a short hair, you don’t have to wait for a long period of time for it to grow because there are now available hair extensions that you can use to make it look naturally longer, you can have it straight or curled and even in different shades. Very cool isn’t it?

Take a look at one of the hair extensions available at Omgnb.com

16 Inch Brilliant Body Wavy Clip In Human Hair Extensions

It is made up of 100% Human hair and 16″ Long, has the body wave texture. What’s great is that it can be straightened, curled, dyed to match your own hair perfectly.

Hair Wig — 24 Inch Brazil Long Straight Black Full Bang African American Wigs for Women Remy hair is a superior human hair grade that is collected from a hair donor. The cuticle layer of the hair remains in tack, therefore the hair is silky soft with a subtle wave pattern. The hair is then hand-tied to a wig in the same direction as it is on a human head. The look of the wig is very natural, easy to manage and does not tangle.

They also got Wigs like the one photo above. It is made p of Human Remy hair, straight in texture and very natural looking.

In our modern age nowadays, there are endless opportunities that we could take to make our hair look more beautiful naturally without really having pour too much on our budget. Thank goodness to friendly online shops that can deliver on all of our needs.

#LandoPh Today

10 / 18 / 15

I woke up around 1 am this morning to the hurling winds outside. I was quite nervous as we’ve been all reading a lot about this super typhoon to hit the Central and Northern Luzon this Sunday Morning.

As of this time, we are under Storm Signal No.2. Good thing it was a Sunday as there’s no classes. It just feels like yesterday when we had the Ondoy Experience six years ago. We will never be getting used to having typhoons even if we get a lot of them year round.

As for personal updates, it was like we are still struggling and dealing from a so “typhoon” in our lives. It was exhausting and painful. Mentally, physically, emotionally and even our Faith is being put to test. We are drained financially. Our kitchen is closed, bills are piling up, we can’t keep up with our daily expenses as we don’t have any income. We are broke!

But, good thing I still get to earn a little from freelance work. Direct advertisers would pop me a message every once in awhile just when I needed them most. Hahaha! But there’s a downside, our PC broke down ( see how timely?!) I would work around using my phone and borrow my SIL’s netbook. Thank goodness for the free WIFI 😀

Yes, I just have to take note of the little things to be grateful for because I know that God’s still on our side despite all theses things happening. We’re a survivor, we will overcome this. ( I just hope and pray soon)

I am planning of going back to find a regular day job and Ian to continue on running our eatery. I guess, we just have to be more patient and wary of all the lessons the we got from this situation.

Hoping to get back on the right track, so please help us again dear Lord!

I will also be updating on products that I received again from some local generous company. Still waiting for the others to arrive. I guess this blog would be some sort of a beauty blog for the meantime. Haha!

More good and positive vibes till my next update!

Trendy Trench Coats

10 / 18 / 15

Since we were living in a tropical country, people are used to wearing clothes that are made up of light materials like cotton fabric. You would typically see people in t-shirts, pants, shorts, skirts and business suit.

But as we go along with the latest trends in fashion, people nowadays especially the younger generations- they typically are more bold and experimental with their fashion statement. Fashion designers are also competitive in terms of their ideas in strutting off their creations in runways.

We have now renowned fashion icons that are getting raves in the fashion world locally and internationally.

Going back into the topic of outfit, not because we don’t have the winter season in our country it doesn’t mean one can never wear those trendy tidebuy trench coats that we do usually see from glossy magazines only.

I myself witnessed seeing people wearing trench coats in malls and work area. I find them very chic looking! They seem to enjoy and doesn’t look uncomfortable in their outfits,

I think with proper attitude and fashion sense, anybody can strut off on those trendy trench coats!

One can take a look here on how to choose trench coats

One can never go wrong with the big plaid double button. It doesn’t look heavy and would look good in those slim to medium built women.

For the classy and minimal look, this Chic PU Belt Long Trench Coat is good for any size of women.

The color and belt will definitely make you look slimmer and won’t look heavy on you.

Isn’t so nice that we also get to experience the fun in wearing those trench coats?!

Buying New Kitchen Essentials

9 / 30 / 15

Our kitchen is closed for almost two months now. We’ve informed most of our customers of the said temporary closure as we’ve been having problems due to the rainy weather the past months. The flood is the major reason why we decided to do so. We cannot compromise the freshness and safety of the food that we offer. We all knew how dirty the flood water is!

So for the meantime, we are doing some minor renovations and trying fix things around the eatery. We are thinking of elevating the flooring and do some painting on walls. Another thing, we would like to improve on the design, furniture and fixtures of our kitchen.

I am now doing some online window shopping for the kitchen essentials at Sammy Dress, I love that this site is not only limited to fashion essentials like dresses and accessories as I though at first. It caters to different products as well like in the home, category as well.

5 Reasons Why a Plant is a Better Gift Than Cut Flowers

9 / 26 / 15

Giving plants as gifts is more popular than ever, but more people are moving away from giving one another cut flowers and opting instead to give living plants. What are some of the reasons why a plant from a place like The Gluttonous Gardener is a better gift than cut flowers? Continue reading for just five reasons.

1. The Gift Recipient Can Watch It Grow

One of the best things about a live plant is the fact that you can watch it grow for months or years to come. So what starts off as a small plant can eventually grow and bloom into a really eye-catching, beautiful centrepiece in your gift recipient’s home. Plus, the recipient can watch it grow as a direct result of his or her great care of this living thing, thinking of you every time he or she sees the plant.

2. It Will Last Longer

A plant that can last for years is in contrast to cut flowers, which only last a few days before withering and drying out only to be thrown into the trash and be forgotten. So rather than giving someone a bouquet of flowers that can bloom when placed in water, why not get them the whole plant so they can watch it grow and bloom over and over again with each passing year?

3. It’s More Environmentally Friendly

With more people becoming increasingly eco-conscious, live plants, rather than cut flowers, are becoming more popular. This is because a good portion of cut flowers that are sold in shops are actually imported from other countries, and this requires a lot of fuel that results in pollution. The plants are often grown unsustainably and foreign workers may not have labour protections, making low wages while being exposed to harmful chemicals and pesticides that aren’t only bad for people, but bad for the planet. And all of those cut flowers end up in the trash sooner or later, whether they’re sold or not, resulting in a lot of waste

4. There are a Variety of Choices

When it comes to plants, there are so many choices available. You can give someone a baby palm tree, a succulent, or a flower-producing plant that will bloom beautifully and fragrantly on a regular basis. The same options aren’t available as cut flowers, so you have a lot more choices and more variety when shopping for live plants to give as gifts than when you shop for cut flowers at a florist.

5. It Can Be Planted in a Garden

Finally, your gift can be planted in the recipient’s garden, provided that the conditions are optimal and that the weather throughout the year will allow the plant to thrive. So in addition to watching the plant grow in a pot inside the home, it can also grow even more beautifully surrounded by other trees, shrubs, and flowers outside.

With so many great reasons to give live plants rather than cut flowers as gifts, you can start creating unique gifts for every special occasion and every special person in your life.

Be Your Best Beautiful with Olay

9 / 25 / 15

I received my free samples of Olay Total Effects Day Cream and Olay Deep Moisture Body Wash last August 27.

Prior to that, I received an email from Viviamo! Inc. Did update my profile at ilovebdj.com , received and answer survey form. A couple of days after, got the “Your Olay gift pack is on its way” email notification.

It came in a sleek white pouch!

Olay Deep Moisture with Honey Body Wash

I am not really fond of using body wash whenever I take a bath as I am used to the usual germicidal bar soap that I’ve been using for the years. In effect, it would usually dry up my skin after bath. So I had to use an ample amount of body lotion (sometimes, I would usually omit due to laziness or whenever I’m in a hurry! ?).

For a 30-something mom to 2 kids like me, the use of Olay Deep Moisture with Honey Body Wash made my shower experience a delightful one the first time I use it because;

1. It smells so good! Not too strong, just the right type of fragrance that keeps my skin fresh smelling not just after bath but all day long.
2. It has a smooth creamy texture wash that is easy to pour on puff that keep s my body moisturized the entire day.
3. I noticed that the “chicken skin” part near my elbow is no longer rough. It feels smooth and soft to touch already. Yey! ?

My skin’s condition definitely improved after one use and has noticeably positive effects on succeeding use.
I no longer put too much lotion on my entire body as I rely on Olay Deep Moisture with Honey Body Wash’s moisture outlast technology for deep penetration to take care of my skin.

From now on, this will definitely be a part of my daily shower essentials.

Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Day Cream

I have spots and big pores on my face’s skin due to pimples prior t the use of this cream. So when other people started to take noticed and tell me how radiant and glowing my face is, that I definitely knew that this cream really works wonder on my skin.

I am really looking forward to keeping the Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Day cream a part of my skin care regimen.
