How to do a French tip nail

By Sai

French Tip Nails

This is my first time to do a nail tutorial and I hope you'll find it useful. I always have a heart for French tip nails. In a movie I watched before (Red Shoes), it was mentioned that it was Imelda Marcos who popularized French tip nails in the Philippines. Honestly, I really don't care. All I care about is to have great nails for myself and for Toots (I call my special someone "Toots" to hide his true personality.) He's a man who likes his "girlfriend" (if that's what I am right now) to have great nails. I actually agree. It's a major turn off if a lady looks so fine but has dirty nails! Eeeeewwww!

What does 50X fairer skin means to me?

By Sai

Let’s try a new topic here. Let’s talk about having fairer skin. I’ve been a “morena” ever since and sometimes I wish I’m fairer. Here are the reasons why.

Obviously, I want to be whiter.

This is me and I found a fairer version of me online. This is not edited. This is the real whoever she is and it kinda surprised me when a friend of mine showed me this. Yes! That’s exactly me but way whiter!

Live blogging for the Visayas Blogging Summit 2010

By Sai

Yes oh yes! This is my first time to conquer my "I'm afraid of airplanes" drama! Gee, I'm so excited to literally fly! I did not sleep because I'm afraid I'd be too happy sleeping while my airplane is flying to Iloilo hahaha.

So, my day started with a funny talk with my daddy :P He accompanied me to the airport. I actually asked him to because I'm so naive! I don't know anything! This is my first time to leave Manila hahaha (I know this sounds pathetic but what can I do? It's the truth hahaha) Sorry for my look. No makeup. No sleep. I'm like a zombie! Hahaha

I missed an interesting event

By Sai

Due to tons of work in my real job as a Digital Influence Specialist I haven't checked my email inbox for quite some time. When I checked my email inbox an invitation was sent to me few days ago and I'm kinda sad to have missed it!

Boy oh boy! I'm interested in this book launch. I mean, hey, I've been very honest to all of you with my relationship status. I've been single for quite a while and this book looks interesting. I'd buy this book and I'll tell you what's it's all about plus how to flirt with guys hahaha :)) Or buy the book too! This should be fun!

Happy reading everyone!

How to keep your curls beautiful and bouncy

By Sai

I've been getting a lot of compliments since I curled my straight hair. I first curled my hair and after two weeks I have it dyed. My friends loved the curls and they love my new hair color more. Even my officemates are asking who dyed and curled my hair. Well, it was Rocky who's taking care of my hair. He's a family friend, who owns a salon in Pasig City.

Rocky's applying some chemicals in my hair and I'm really freaking out because I don't want my hair to be damaged. I always believe that my hair is my crowning glory. I think this is in our unpublished handbook made by our great great grandmothers. I actually use two products for my hair - Sunsilk's Hair Repair (the orange one) and Cream Silk's Volume Up (the light blue one).

Faith’s Wedding Day last 10-10-10

By Sai

This is my first time to do a wedding makeup. Honestly, I was very nervous at first. Good thing we had a trial makeup for the bride. I was so glad that the wedding coordinator liked my natural makeup on Faith. I did a lot of research on this just to make sure (this is part of the “I’m so nervous part”). I found out that you really have to make the bride’s makeup as natural as possible. I decided to use earthy tones on Faith. She already has a pretty face so what I did was I just enhanced her natural beauty. She has an oval face so I had to contour her face to make her cheekbones visible. This was the result of our trial makeup.

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao fights for the Philippines again versus Antonio Margarito

By Sai

Pacman is everyone’s hero. Every time he has a fight we hear that there’s a zero crime rate in Metro Manila in the news. Funny but it only shows how much Filipinos love him and support him especially during his fights. He is everyone’s hero.

Pacman’s latest fight will be with Antonio Margarito and we are all excited. I hope Pacquiao will still bring home the bacon! Go Pacman! I have one problem though, how will I watch it? My TV at home is not working :(

Fashion disaster by Blake Lively

By Sai

I'm a big fan of Blake Lively especially in her character as Serena Van Der Woodsen in the TV show Gossip Girl. She's so sexy, stylish and very feminine and womanly. She's one of the celebrities I look up to in terms of dressing up. But look what I found:
