I was all set to shop like crazy in VNC’s mid-year sale last Saturday when a pair from the 2009 June collection caught my eye and melted my heart in 2 seconds flat…

Remember my mid-December lemming? I tried to get over it but I cannot.

my phones: Sony Ericsson W760i & Nokia 5800

I finally gave in and nabbed a blue Nokia 5800. I love, love, love it! I can finally snap away at night without bringing my DSLR camera (sample night and day shots here) and watch Diggnation on the go. YAY!

Just a quick update before I hit the sack my lurves!

After a month’s use of L’oreal White Perfect Radiance Boosting Double Essence & Fairness Revealing Soothing Night Cream, here’s how fair and transparent I’ve become:

The color of my hair looks weird in this photo: half red, half dirty blonde plus a bit of black.

I cropped my friend beside me, she’s too shy to make a debut here! I look tired and teary above because really, I was super tired and sleepless.

Q: How do you take care of your colored hair? It seems like you color very frequently but I never saw your hair dry and frizzy (like mine *sob*)!

A: Thank you! I juggle different products from the L’Oreal Elseve family. My love for this line started with Nutri-Gloss (pink) and Color-Vive (red). Right now, I’m loving the Re-Nutrition line (white). It moisturizes my locks really well without weighing it down.

I start my “routine” with of course, shampoo (Php 175) and conditioner (Php 185):

After towel drying my hair, I smooth on a small amount of the leave-on treatments:

day (Php 345)/night (Php 355)

These daily treatments are great because on top of being weightless, they also minimize static and frizz. My fave product from this line is the Replenishing Mask (Php 375). I leave it on my hair for 1-2 minutes twice a week:

The result: slippery, moisturized, healthy looking hair (insert shampoo commercial theme song here).
