"A woman can never have enough lipsticks." Make that lip balms for me! Oh, don't get me wrong, I love lipsticks but I see myself wearing lipbalms more often. I guess its because I am a student who don't mind what I wear on school as long as I look fresh so lip balms are my best buddy in school. In fact, I have a large box full of lip balms only! Anyway, today I will you a new addition to my collection. (Hey, it rhymes! :P )

It looks hot pink on the tube but it is actually just a baby pink in person specially on lips. Although it says "Strawberry" as its flavor, it doesn't smell like strawberry at all. It smells sweet but not fruity, not what I am expecting but its okay :) It made my lips smooth but not the "oh my goodness it feels like a new,reborn lips!" kind of smooth. The only thing that make this special is that it gives me a nice sheer pink color onto my lips which is very rare to see when it comes to tinted lip balm plus it has SPF 16, who can't resist that extra sun protection?

Overall, this is a nice addition to my collection because of the color it gives and for the SPF 16 but it won't be my HG lip balm as it is not very moisturizing for my lips. It makes my lips smooth and not flaky for one-two hours only with a hint of pink that last for a short time.

Hello! I hope you are having  good day :) I can't believe its August now! I still have a hang over last month, it was a pretty busy month for me. I danced, cheered for our class, do some workshops, have dinner with my friends, go shopping, went to an adventure then go shopping again. Wew! I have mentioned that I have attended a workshop, that is the Maybelline Dream Academy Workshop.

The ladies spent an entire hour talking about the "no make-up" make up look and their new products called Dream Satin Skin foundation. After the workshop, I bought few pieces at Maybelline store, some are new to try and some are things that I have love before. Instead of a haul, I decided to feature the products for the whole week! I hope you all stay with me and get ready for a Maybelline Madness!

For our first product this week, I have my nails done yesterday and I used Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer in Keep up the flame. I am not a fan of red when it comes to my hands. My mom never allow me to use this color unless it is summer time so I only choose pink, nude, white and other pastel colors. So what made me go to red? It's not that I am rebelling or what, I just thought why not go for it for a change?


Keep Up The Flame is the color that I got on the small bag from Maybelline. My first impression is wow! It really shouts red. It looks very pretty on the bottle and even more on my nails. I am very excited to try this one out but I should ask for my mother's permission first. :)

She agreed I can have it as long as I keep my nails short. After she said yes, I went to a nail salon near us. I can't wait to see my nails all red.


Although I am not the one who applied it on my nails, I checked this before I go to the salon. The consistency of this nail polish is great; not too thick so it is easy to be applied on nails even for beginners. Keep Up The Flame is a vibrant red. It looks very pretty and it make hands look whiter. Have you experience wearing a nail color that make your hands look old or dark? I am happy that this doesn't look like that to me. I find this color appropriate for my age, not too dark so it looks wearable while still giving me a vavavoom kind of red. This nail polish is very opaque, the one who did my nails applied 1-2 coats only plus it has a high shine finish. It looks very glossy in person.


I keep my nails short so it will have a balance look with the bright hue of my nails. I am glad I take a risk to wear something I am not used to. It looks very pretty on my nails and I am planning to wear other shades of red this month.
