Sorry, I’ve Been Busy

I have a ton of things to blog but I’ve been busy in the hospital. I will try to write tonight. I still owe you days 2 and 3 of our quick getaway, a lot of back log posts and tons of reviews. In the mean time, let me leave you with my finished products in October. It’s amazing how much products I consume every month…

october finished products, by bitsandtreats 
  • Human Heart Nature Massage Oil – Repurchase? Probably not.
  • St. Ives Renewing Collagen Body Wash – Repurchase!
  • Bath and Body Works Cucumber Lotion – a gift
  • Pantene Hair Fall Shampoo and Conditioner – Repurchase? Definitely not
  • Maybelline Makeup Remover – Repurchase? Absolutely!
  • Penshoppe Juniper Body Butter – I would repurchase but this is a limited Christmas edition thing
  • Elianto Clear Polish – I probably won’t. I really like Etude House’s.
  • Caronia Nail Polish – I’m hating Caronia now because they dry up so fast. I really like this shade but it dried up even before I got half of it. Such a waste of money…
  • Maybelline lip balm – This was great until my lips started drying up when I was halfway through the product. So, no.
  • Elf concealer – Still thinking. This is a great product though.
To see my reviews on the above products (except for the Penshoppe body butter) just type the keywords on the search bar on the right.

    that maybelline make-up remover seems interesting, I've been reading good reviews about it, as well as the magnun, will put those 2 in my list.

    I have an ELF concealer, it's okay lang, but I do want to try the ETUDE suprprise concealer.

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

  There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

The Pleasure of Leaving It Behind

  I really liked this dress. Enough that I stood there looking at it for far longer than necessary, having that familiar little debate with myself. It was black. Simple. Very me. I could already imagine how I would wear it. There was only one problem. The fabric was thick. And perhaps in another climate, or another version of my life, that wouldn’t matter very much. But I live in the Philippines. We’re going through El Niño. Heat and I are already not particularly good friends, and my histamine sensitivity has made me even less willing to wear something that might leave me uncomfortable simply because it looks good. Still, I stood there. Because sometimes walking away from something we like is strangely difficult, even when we already know it isn’t right for us. We start negotiating. Maybe I’ll only wear it indoors. Maybe the fabric isn’t that thick. Maybe I’ll regret leaving it behind. Then I realized I was trying awfully hard to convince myself to buy something my body had alrea...
