LOOKBOOK: Date with the Miggy Montenegro

LATE POST

To start off, Miggy Montenegro is a fictional character played by THE John Lloyd Cruz - a Filipino Actor - in the movies A Very Special Love, You Changed My Life, and just recently, It Takes A Man and A Woman. So please don't think that I'm cheating on my boyfriend of 5 years, Lol. Anyway, as I've mentioned, it was a date with him because this was what I wore when we watched It Takes A Man and A Woman, his movie with Sarah Geronimo as his leading lady (hate her!), Lol

BEAUTY TALK: Violent Eyes

Have you ever wanted to recreate the perfect cat eye, like your favourite celebrity and wanted it to be flawless every time?

Thanks to Violent Eyes™ you can create the precise length, width and solid color to have fabulous eyes like your favorite style icon, such as Dita Von Tesse (small cat eye) Marilyn Monroe (small cat eye) Kim Kardashian (medium cat eye) and Amy Winehouse (large cat eye).

The customize appliqués fit all eye shapes and sizes, and boast a smudge-proof formula that lasts up to 16 hours. No brushes or shadow pallets needed, Violent Eyes™ are compact, travel-friendly and take the guesswork out of eye makeup colors and time-consuming blending.

Colors & Styles

Each Violent Eyes™ package includes 8 sets of temporary eye appliqués and features four eyeliner styles. From cat eyes to a full lid design, makeup aficionados can choose among glitter shades of Bronze, Jet Black, Pink, Sapphire Blue, Silver, Violet and Rainbow.

How To

Like Violent Lips® appliqués, Violent Eyes™ are easily applied:

1. Make sure your eyes are dry of any oils or moisturisers. Remove desired shape from the stencil. You can apply over eye primers and powdered makeup.
2. Measure the appliqué to your eye, starting from the outside corner in.
3. If needed, cut the inner eye corner of the appliqué to your eye width measurement according to the guidelines.
4. Peel the plastic film off of the appliqué.
5. Slightly wet the paper backing of the appliqué with a moist cotton tip to make the appliqué flexible.
6. Handle the corners of the appliqué carefully and apply the sticky side of the appliqué to your eyelid, placing it as close as you can to your lash line. Continue to soak the paper backing in water with the tip until the paper backing slides off easily – approximately 30 seconds.
7. Seal and smooth the appliqué with the wet cotton tip. Repeat steps for the other eye.

Violent Eyes is now available in:

Topshop Mall of the Emirates | Topshop Dubai Mall | Debenhams Mall of the Emirates

IT’Sugar Mall of the Emirates | West LATopshop Kuwait 

Price: AED55.00 for a set of 8.

iREVIEW: Alterna Haircare Bamboo Smooth Line + Competition

If there's one thing I spend most of my time on fixing, it's actually my hair more than that of my make up. I love it like a baby but I definitely have a love-hate relationship with it. Mainly because the way I take care of it is parallel to the way I damage it. But don't get me wrong, taking care of it is always the goal here, right? But anyway, let's step aside from fashion and let's talk about beauty for a change. 

Actually, this past week, I have set aside my usual hair regimen and tried out this Alterna Haircare Bamboo Smooth Line. I have given quite a vivid introduction of the line in my previous blog post and below are my thoughts of it.

I've picked up the whole collection, consisting of shampoo, conditioner, treatment oil, and dry oil mist, which are unanimously free from Sodium chloride and Parabens (chemicals which are terrible yet found in 85% of beauty products).

The Result:
After having to use it this past week, I have noticed changes in the texture of my hair. I love how this product lives to its promise of feeling and seeing the difference in just your first use. My hair being damaged and all, it has been really frustrating for me because of it's unmanageable texture, and also because it's wavy. After using the products (Shampoo, Conditioner and Dry Oil Mist) on the first use, I have felt my hair became softer and smoother. It has become more manageable for me and saved really time in fixing my hair. Especially when I go to work, I don't really spend so much time anymore unlike before. But of course, it's fresh smell gives it plus points.

My thoughts:
This is really good for frizzy and damaged hair, most especially for the unmanageable ones. Although I haven't seen any long term results yet, this product has got to be reliable.  I highly recommend this of course to all you guys reading this! Though I have yet to try their UV+ line, which is for dyed hair, I have heard from others that this is a bit pricey for your pocket. But I believe that nothing is too pricey for your needs, especially if it provides you with promising results right?!

Anyway, the Alterna Haircare Bamboo Smooth line is available at various salons in Dubai and are exclusively distributed in the UAE and the entire Middle East region by Beautylicious Co., WLL. Because they have been really really really generous, they have asked me to share this experience by having me giveaway to one lucky reader the Alterna Haircare UV+ Travel to go kit!
