What's So Special About a Clear Polish?

I've tried different brands of clear polish - Caronia, Bobbie, The Face Shop, Etude House, Elianto. I don't like the first two ones. I've used TFS for a few years then I discovered Etude House. But Etude House is so far, far away and I don't want to go there just to buy one bottle of clear polish. Thank God I tried Elianto!


TFS Clear Polish becomes thick fast. It's very hard for me to finish a bottle. I usually end up chucking a bottle that still has 1/4 product in it just because it's already too thick. I got to finish Etude House's because it's a small bottle but even that got thick. Elianto on the other hand has a very thin consistency. It's so thin that it drips so you'd have to be very careful. Make sure that you only have enough on the brush otherwise you're nails will be filled with clear polish or worse, you'll get your nail polish ruined. 

It dries up quite fast. I've been using this for a few weeks now and there's no change in the consistency. I change nail polish about 3-4 times a week so that's a lot of opening and closing the bottle. It protects the color well especially when used with TFS/Etude House/Sally Hansen nail polish. It doesn't do well with Caronia. This is my first Elianto nail polish and with what I've experienced, I'm convinced to try their other nail polish even though they're more expensive than TFS. But I'll do that after I finish a few bottles of nail polish. I don't have storage space anymore.

The Elianto Clear Polish costs Php99 and I got this from Beauty by SM. See ya ladies, gotta go do my nails!

After buying a lot of stuff on the first floor, we headed upstairs to eat a light lunch. Mom was getting hungry. My son and I just ate, but we said that we will accompany her and will just order something light. 

All About Eyes

Lately I’m finding myself obsessed with skin care products, prevention in particular. I'm not getting younger and nobody likes lines and wrinkles, right? I should have done this in my early twenties but those were hard times and we didn’t have enough to support our daily lives, let alone vanity splurges. So now, I’m on hyper mode. I did not place any expectations on this product. I’ve had it with products claiming they can do this and that. I just tried the product thinking that if it works then great, if not then I’ll just find a new one. I wasn’t expecting a dramatic change but 2 weeks into using this product, I noticed that my under eye area has become lighter. The lines are also not as deep as they were before I used this product. I stopped using the Garnier eye products because I’m allergic to them so that means I’m not using any whitening products for that area. I am truly impressed with this product. I didn’t take a before and after photo as I wasn’t expecting this at ...

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...
