Save for non-stop shopping, am not very much of a Christmas person…anymore. :s All of my good friends are not here in Manila and it’s just sooooo sad to celebrate the 25th without them around.
Anyhoo, I was bored to death waiting for the Christmas eve mass so I played with DIY stuff earlier:

tryna give Santa a run for his money wiv my bleaching ish while coloring my hair at the same time
My hairstylist already gave me an idea what we’re doing with my hair (color) in two weeks and I though it would just be bright to do my full color since hey! That’s PhP200++ vs. PhP1500++! So I got a home coloring kit the other day from the grocery and colored away. My brows of course should compliment my new hair color so I lightened it up a bit since its current shade matches my black cherry toned mane. My finished product-slash-yes, I go to church too FOTD:

my hair color’s about 1 1/2 shades lighter in person

no falsies in here…just smashing mascara!
My dad took that shot while I was talking to my friend from Australia (happy xmas too Julia!). My mother will kill me if she sees me with all those crazy liners (it’s bad enough that I wore a denim mini and orange wedge pumps with that black long sleeved button down top) so I ended up doing the no make-up look.
I used the following:
FOUNDATION: Monave Loose Mineral Concealer-Foundation in SATURNINA (am tan-free again! booooo!)
SETTING POWDER: Monave ANGEL
LID WASH: Monave BUTTERCUP
LINER: MAD Minerals MPM in BLACK CHERRY
MASCARA: Fasio 3D+Air Tech mascara in BLACK
CHEEKS: Valerie Beauty blush in BUFF APRICOT and COQUETTE
BROWS: TFS Automatic eye brow pencil in BROWN
LIPS: MAC l/s in COSMO + Bloom l/g in POUT
Have a very merry Christmas again, everyone! Forget your diet program today but do not forget to take tons of photos! ![]()
