Bubble Hair

One Saturday, MB, my cousin C and I decided to go on a road trip to Bonifacio High Street/Market! Market! I always enter an Etude House boutique whenever I see one so I definitely checked out the branch at Market! One of the things that caught my eye was this Bubble Hair color.

I badly need a salon visit but I couldn’t find the time so I had an idea. Why not try this? I asked my cousin if she could stay over and color my hair. So we had a little experiment that night and this was the result:

I used the exact shade in the photo above. The ends of my hair became lighter while the rest became a somewhat reddish shade, depending on the light. Either way, I love it! A lot of my friends commented that they really like this shade on me. Even my makeup mentor liked it. Some parts are still black though. That’s okay. My cousin is not an expert so this is good enough for me. A regular hair color costs around Php1k. I only shelled out 378 pesos for this and I got very good results.

I didn’t include a photo of the contents of the box anymore as they’re very common already among blogs. But for those of you who are not familiar with the product, the box contains a pair of gloves, a plastic cover for your body, a bubble dispenser with I’m guessing water and the formula for coloring. What you do is you add the formula to the liquid in the foam dispenser then shake, shake, shake. When you pump the product, foam will come out and then you apply this to your hair as if you are shampooing.

I should say that I was impressed with this product not only for the results but for its gentleness on my sensitive skin. I didn’t experience any itching or pain. There was a tiny bit of stinging but nothing compared to a salon coloring. I was too excited to make a patch test. Fortunately, I didn’t have any adverse reactions to it.  I’ve read some bloggers with a terrible reaction to this product and some didn’t have the same results as I did. It didn’t color their hair. C was also impressed by it that she promised to buy one for herself. I will definitely use this again when the time comes.

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...

Soft Luxe Travels: Day 1 - The Journey to Vigan Part 1

In this post, we will start our journey to Vigan! The Night Before After packing our things, I did a few things for myself to help me relax and decompress so that I can sleep. I'm a night owl and not used to waking up early nor sleeping early, so I have to be strategic.  I painted my nails that night after all my chores, so that the nail polish wouldn't chip.  However, I forgot that I needed to make pressed sandwiches for our breakfast the following day!  Because really, what’s a road trip mom without freshly painted nails and a last-minute kitchen hustle? 😂 So, I had to do a lot of washing and hoped for the best that my nail polish will not chip! Luncheon meat, eggs, Kewpie Trust me, it tastes better than it sounds at 11 PM while trying not to chip your polish. That night, we also tried the Ube Halaya from Amira's. This was from our trip to Tagaytay . I'll try to make a review of this on my food blog . With everything prepped, I finally let myself drift off—half excit...

Holiday State of Mind

  Sometimes, a quick escape is all it takes to reset the spirit. Tagaytay always gives me that holiday state of mind… Even a short drive can feel like a retreat when your heart is ready to embrace rest. My son successfully finished his recital last Sunday and as a reward, my sister treated us to Tagaytay yesterday.  Getting Ready for the Trip I decided to use my BYS Golden Hour Palette for today's look. Makeup, for me, is part of the ritual—it sets the tone that today is special. Here are the swatches: From top to bottom: Polaroid, Candid, Aperture, In Focus, Portrait, Panoramic In Focus is slightly wet, like something between a liquid and cream eyeshadow. The color is gorgeous! I love Panoramic, too! Polaroid is a bit chalky and not as pigmented as the shadows in the Queen Bee Palette.  Here are the face shades: Highlighter: Illumination Contour: Ambiance I haven't tried Illumination yet, only Ambiance. I used it on top of my BYS Bronzer. It's a buildable powder, a littl...
