Dianna Agron's makeup in the Grammys

Dianna Agron? Who is she?
Does the name Quinn ring a bell?


If you are a die-hard fan of Glee (Well, I think everyone is), you obviously wouldn't miss somebody like her. A pretty face combined with a dynamic voice is what makes a guy go head over heels for the pretty lady. I am not an avid fan of Glee but the show really gets catchy once they hit that high note. Anywho, I chanced upon a photo of Dianna's makeup, or "Quinn" in Glee World, of what she wore in the Grammys.


and here is my take on it:
I did not edit the photos so, as you can see my lighting was really bad and really yellow. haha! Some are dark and bright. I just watermarked all the photos and cropped some of it for you :)



As I have said, I have no control with the lighting.
I'm only using an improvised light ;)

Thank you for viewing! :)
Have a nice Day! :)

Product Review: Sun Blocks

Because of the summer heat, we want to go to the beach and bathe under the sun without knowing what harm it could bring to our skin. Luckily, sunblock was invented!
Sunblock protects your skin from sun damage. Applying sunblock helps to shield you from harmful sun rays and to prevent skin darkening and dark spots.
I really hate getting dark and having uneven skin tones so, before going to Puerto Galera, I stopped by at Watsons to buy the product.
Here are the photos and my take on what I bought.

DISCLAIMER: These are based from my opinion and experience. I was not paid by anyone.
I bought Beach Hut's MAX 100++ SPF and SUNPLAY SPF 130.


Let us start with Beach Hut's MAX 100++ SPF.

Beach Hut's MAX 100++ SPF claims:
"Unbelievably light lotion sunblock. It’s here! Experience extreme high spf protection without the messy and oily feel like other lotion sunblock. It has micronized zinc oxide and is uber light on skin, quick drying, and gives you that non messy, non sticky sheer feeling while offering up to 99% maximum protection from UVA/UVB rays that causes sunburn, skin cancer and skin darkening. "

Yes! It's true! 100++ SPF!
The highest SPF for Beach Hut!
Now for SUNPLAY SPF 130.
SUNPLAY SPF 130 claims:

"Highest SPF 130 PA+++ for long hour protection against UVA and UVB.
Helps to prevent sunburn and premature aging. Japan "Watery Liquid" formulation is non greasy. Its water-like texture is extremely light & smooth on skin. Super waterproof formula which does not require frequent re-application. Non-comedogenic (does not clog pores). Ideal for long hour outdoor sports and water activities. Dermatologist tested.
"

Highest SPF I have seen so far! :D

When applied:
LEFT- SUNPLAY
RIGHT- BEACH HUT


Verdict:
BEACH HUT:
Two thumbs up for:
  • 100 ml content which means more product!
  • non-messy and easy to apply.

Dislikes:
  • It gives you a white cast on the skin.
  • It's quite thick like other sunblocks.
  • Should re-apply more often.
  • Messy spout :(
SUNPLAY SPF 130:
Two thumbs up for:
  • The highest SPF I ever seen and purchased!
  • Thin watery texture that feels light on the skin.
  • The triangle-shaped spout.


Dislikes:
  • You can buy only 30 ml of the product but in my 3 days in the beach, I never ran out of this product. I guess less is more! :p


If you love your skin apply sunblock! I know I'm paranoid when it comes to my skin but hey! Preventing skin darkening from the sun is key! :)

How about you? Have you tried these babies?
What is your take on them?

Have a great day lovelies!


Summer Escapade!

Summer=BEACH!

Last weekend, I went to Puerto Galera with my friends and my cousin. Puerto Galera is one of the popular places here in the Philippines and is also known for having clear sea water and white sand!
We stayed in Basilico Lodge which was just steps away from the white beach! :) We were in Puerto Galera for an awesome 3 days, 2 nights of sun loving! haha! The weather was cool compared to Manila. It was sunny yet breezy which was perfect for the summer! :)
Here are some photos!
WARNING: Photo heavy! :)
