In this post, I’ll show you what’s in my February box, I wanna let you know how “sulit” it is to subscribe in GlamourBox ;)

• Sample size bottle of Snoe Oil for All - Argan oil :) A full-sized bottle costs around 800php

Argan Oil is popular for the beauty wonders it can do, it’s a bit pricey. I wanted to buy one before but I stopped myself because of some doubts, what if it doesn’t work for me? My money will be wasted. BUt I can give it a try now, and if this one works, I’m definitely purchasing a full-sized bottle. Haha!

• Sample Bottle of Clavin Klein Beauty

A perfume which I think is a must have. It’s sweet feminine scent is just so alluring!

• Full Size KJI Emergency Lash RX - 1350php

This lash serum prevents new virgin hair from being adversely affected by cosmetic and environmental factors. Users will see dramatic improvement in lash volume, texture and density just in 5 days! I will give this a try and will definitely do a separate review in the near future. :)

• 500php worth of Gift Card from cuzo.com.ph

• Carmex Moiturizing Lip Balm - 109php

If you’ve been a reader of my blog for quite a while now, then you must know how much I love Carmex Lip Balms. I have written a review on this lip balm before here.

Wild Peach Palette - 280php

According to Wild Peach Cosmetics Page, The Wild Peach palette is an open plan magnetic palette designed to consolidate your daily makeup routine into one handy container. It allows you to get rid of all that bulky plastic packaging that clutters up your bag. It doesn’t matter what brand or shape you choose to use, it will easily fit the palette. It gives you the freedom to change and replace colors in just seconds!

All in all, I am pretty much amazed and I am more than contented with the contents of the February box, Imagine all those great items which may cost more or less 2500php and you’ll get them all for the value of 550php. That’s what you call sulit na sulit!

Girls can never have too many shoes ;)

I believe in the “philo-shoe-phy” that girls can never have too many shoes. I, myself admits that I love to collect shoes! You know that exciting feeling you get when you have a new pair of shoes? It’s un-explainable, only shoe hoarders will understand.

And I’m glad I found this online shop called LovelyWholesale.com <3 They’ve got a wide shoe collection, over 2,700 designs are available! And what’s even better? They’re selling their items at a very affordable price. Shoe prices ranges from $10 - $20. Imagine that! They’re shop is truly a shop to love! Go check them out, you could buy a lot without even hurting your credit cards! ;)

My Love for Alexander McQueen

I have been looking for an online shop which sells designer items recently and I am so glad I found MatchesFashion.com :) I am more than happy with the wide selection of designer items they sell so I decided to tell you about them.

I was looking for Louboutins at first but when I saw the Alexander McQueen items, I instantly fell inlove with them. I’ve picked a dress, a pair of pumps and a leather bracelet. <3

Delicately intricate and impeccably crafted, this spine lace knitted dress from Alexander McQueen embodies the label’s unique sense of gothic romanticism. The subtle spine motif is an understated hint of avant-garde sophistication; add simple accessories for an ultra-feminine evening ensemble.

I fell in love with this Spine lace knitted dress the moment I saw it. Its intricate lace detail is perfect <3 I also love the ways its crafted, a round neckline, pleated skirt, the way it hugs the waist is just amazing. 

Every time I’d wore a cream colored dress, I’d always resort to wearing red pumps. So I know this Alexander McQueen Red Suede shoes will match perfectly with the Spine Lace Knitted dress. 

These red suede court shoes have an almond toe and a red suede platform with a matching curved high heel. <3

This leather wrap-around bracelet has an orange section and a red section with an adjustable buckle fastening featuring a gold metal 3D skull charm and a logo-engraved disc charm.

I also think this leather wrap-around bracelet will go well on the outfit since it matches with the shoe color. Do you agree? 

I am more than in love with these items from Alexander McQueen. I couldn’t thank matchesfashion.com enough. Its truly an online store that caters almost all the designer items you’re looking for. Check out their site now <3

Veloci Cruise Watch in Purple

The VELOCI Cruise Collection

Fashion is mostly about color. The Veloci Cruise collection comes in a wide palette from cool pastel pink and subdued hues of grey and classic white to the more trendy red, purple and yellow. This collection was clearly designed to be always on-trend and fashionable, leaving the wearer to play with color. The Cruise watch comes in 38mm.

I’m totally loving the colors of the straps in Veloci Cruise Collection, it’s filled with pastel colors which is perfect for summer!

This color interplay by VELOCI aims to breath a fresh and practical perspective to time pieces that match with whatever you are wearing.

Well, speaking of summer. I must tell you that this watch is perfect company for summer. Not only because of its playful colors but because they are water resistant up to 330ft. You don’t have to worry when you’re going on a swim. Gotta love Veloci!

I am so inlove with this watch, it’s now my everyday watch. I love how classy it looks. I love the playful colors. I’m planning to purchase more straps actually.

You can buy a set of Veloci watch at any Time Studio and Asprey stores for only 2750php. If you think three straps isn’t enough for you and you want more playful straps, no worries! You can purchase straps separately for only 350php. 

Now you don’t have to hoard watches and spend a LOT when you want different looks. All you have to do is purchase straps and it will seem like you have a LOT of watches. Haha!

PS. You’ll being seeing my Veloci watch on my future outfit posts, watch out for that! :P 

Little Black Dress

Yay! I finally have a little black dress, though it’s too little for me! Haha! I find it too revealing. :P 

And because it’s too revealing for my taste and I’m not used to wearing tube dresses. I decided to wear a lace cover up from OASAP so I won’t be bothered with my too much skin showing up. Thanks to this lace cardigan, I can still move freely with my “too” little black dress. Haha!

Don’t you find the leather splicing hot? I sure did! :)

And yes, I rely on gold necklace again to add a classy feel to my outfit. 

And because summer is almost here, it’s about time we invest on fashionable yet durable sunglasses! Thank God I found BoardWalkEyes.com :) I found this pair of sunnies really stunning! I know it will go on really well with my gold accessories (which I’m currently addicted to!). I’m planning to order it actually, I know I MUST have this pair!

I also fell inlove with this pair, I think it’s really fierce! Which one do you think should I get? Hmh. Both, I must get BOTH! Hahaha! 

Thankfully I get a good discount from my friends at boardwalkeyes.
If anyone is interested in sunglasses they will send you a discount but you have to email them at info@boardwalkeyes.com and mention my blog to get the discount. ;)

I also wore my fluffy pumps from Oasap which is so comfy! It’s available in color black too, you must give this pair of pumps a try.

Perfect match: 5 gift-and-date ideas

Feel the love from Philips with this Valentine’s Day gift and activity guide

Whenever Valentine’s Day rolls around, it comes with the pressure of thinking up the perfect date—and giving the perfect gift! On this special day, hearts should be pounding with joy, and not pounding with fear. To save you from your gift and date night worries, Philips is offering this excellent array of products and activities for a memorable Valentine’s Day.

1. A cuddle on the couch, and a perfect cup of coffee

With the cold wind blowing past us this Valentine’s Day, why not make the most out of the rare cuddle weather with your special someone and whip up great tasting espresso at the touch of a button using the Philips Saeco Intelia One Touch Cappuccino HD8753.

The Intelia One Touch Cappuccino is an easy to use automatic espresso machine designed to deliver the perfect espresso experience from bean to cup. Ladies can enjoy their favorite cappuccino using the Intelia’s integrated automatic milk function with easy refill. The gentlemen, on the other hand, won’t be left out when they get even a whiff of the Intelia’s espresso.

With adjustable coffee strength and temperature, as well as ceramic grinders for aroma preserving and a flavor-enhancing pre-brewing function, the Intelia is built to satisfy. It will serve you perfectly prepared coffee to go along with warm loving cuddles this Valentine’s Day.

2. Make her look extra stunning for your night out

Women love to look good, especially for the men they adore. And needless to say, the men appreciate it. With the Philips ActiveCare Hair Dryer HP8270, it’s a win-win situation come date night.

The ActiveCare Hair Dryer adds more body and bounce to hair, with a TempPrecision sensor that maintains hair temperature to keep healthy moisture intact. The volume diffuser dries hair healthily, reduces frizz and increases volume by spreading the airflow across the hair. It also has six flexible speed and temperature settings for full control.

With your girl styled like a star, take her on a romantic dinner for two—and make heads turn!

3. Make him smooth, suave and ready to dance

Want to see your man smarten up with a clean or even stylized shave for a cozy night out? Well, then take matters into your own hands and get him a brand new Philips AquaTouch AT890.

This wet and dry electric shaver is the secret to a smooth, clean shave. Designed for use even while in the shower, the AquaTouch offers both a comfortable dry shave as well as a refreshing wet shave. It features an inbuilt Aquatec seal which makes the shaver fully waterproof and optimized for use with shaving gel or foam.  This means enhanced skin comfort and minimal skin irritation.

In addition, it utilizes DualPrecision shaving heads that have slots to shave the normal hairs and holes to shave even the shortest stubble. With his clean and suave look, he’s ready for a night of fine dining and slow dancing!

4. Turn your home into a cinema, and have an all-day movie date

Sometimes, the best dates don’t need to be extravagant or overly special. They can happen right at home. This Valentine’s Day, stay in and spend an entire day all bundled up, watching movies with your loved one. And do it with cinema-like audio courtesy of the Philips Soundbar CSS5123.

A sleek and premium speaker system, the Soundbar utilizes Virtual Surround Sound technology, wherein the speakers are precisely angled to create a surround sound effect for a realistic movie experience. A 2012 Red Dot Design winner, it also features a DoubleBASS technology which enhances the bass for a deeper and fuller effect.

5. Sip on fresh fruit juice on a romantic picnic

There’s nothing like fresh fruit juice made directly from your kitchen. It’s the healthiest drink you can get—especially during a season that calls for chocolates and cakes. Put a healthy little twist to your Valentine’s celebration by preparing your own fruit juices using the Philips Avance Juicer HR1871.

Easy to assemble, the Avance Juicer operates with an 800 W motor that can squeeze tough ingredients like apples or carrots. The extra large feeding tube allows you to put whole fruits and vegetables directly without having to pre-cut it. An electro-polishing technology optimizes juicer cleaning from the mesh on the sieve to the pulp container.

And what better way to enjoy fresh fruit juice than outdoors—on a romantic picnic with your partner!

 Feel and spread the love this Valentine’s Day with these laid-back date ideas for you and your special someone. 

Revlon Age Defying with DNA Advantage Powder - Review

Our ultra fine powder helps skin to feel conditioned and look luminous, minimizing the appearance of discoloration due to the signs of aging. This deluxe pressed powder glides on seamlessly and feels lightweight on skin. Skin looks smoother and conditioned and does not settle into fine lines, wrinkles and pores.

Use in conjunction with Revlon Age Defying DNA Advantage™ makeup to achieve superior anti-aging protection. - Revlon

I’d say Revlon’s claims to this powder is true. :) It’s really a great powder :)

Though I’m really not a fan of the brush that comes with it. It is too stiff for me.

Pros:

• It is not too chalky nor too shimmery.
• It controls oil really well.
• It creates a natural look.
• It is fragrance free.

Cons:

• Packaging is quite bulky.
• The brush is too stiff.

All in all, it’s a product worth purchasing as it really gives great coverage. If you have an oily skin like me, then you must give this product a try! <3

By the way, have you used this product before? I would love to here your comments! <3
