February 2013 Empties

At the end of January, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to finish as many products as I did in my January empties post. Turns out, there was nothing to be worried about:

aqua vera body wash, bitsandtreats

I can’t believe how much shower gel I used up this month! That’s one.

bench cool kiwi craze shower gel, bitsandtreats

This was all MB’s. This was exclusively his. This was the best smelling Bench shower gel in the bunch. I would have loved to use it but it was the neutral smelling shower gel we had and so I gave it all to MB. I used the more girly scented ones.

camay shower gel, bitsandtreats

I think I finished this a little over a week or so.

choose chi chi peach and mango body souffle, bitsandtreats


choose chi chi coconut vanilla body souffle, bitsandtreats

I finished two! I loved these products so much! Thank you A!

duwop lip ice tea, bitsandtreats

This Duwop Lip Ice Tea is not exactly empty but I hate it so much that I threw it away. It tasted really bad and I just didn’t like it.

fairy drops and heroine make mascaras, bitsandtreats

I finished the Fairy Drops mascara a long time ago but I’ve been holding on to it for reasons I cannot fathom. I finally decided to throw it away with my Heroine Make mascara. These are both very good mascaras.

schwarzkopf extra care shampoo and conditioner, bitsandtreats

These bottles are not empty because I didn’t bother taking a photo of them anymore when I finished them.

sephora by OPI nail polish, bitsandtreats


Believe it or not, this bottle is empty! I finished this nail polish. I even had to pour the last bit of product onto something to finish painting my nails!

shower me with sweetness, bitsandtreats

Another shower gel. Thank you M!

sunsilk green, bitsandtreats

Sunsilk green for my brushes. Now I use Ivory to clean them.

tbs tea tree skin clearing foaming cleanser, bitsandtreats

Loved this cleanser but it’s not right for our budget.

too faced lash injection mascara, bitsandtreats

This is Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara. I wasn’t even able to try this as it was already dried up. This came with one of my palettes.

watsons foot scrub, bitsandtreats

Love this foot scrub as well. They’re back on stock but I don’t feel like buying yet.

watsons footease soothing leg gel, bitsandtreats

This is another Watsons product that I love! Definitely soothes my tired legs.

beauty bar brush cleaner, bitsandtreats

I finally got rid of this brush cleaner from Beauty Bar! I really hate this product as it does nothing for my brushes!

etude house flower treatment nail polish remover, bitsandtreats

Love this nail polish remover from Etude House. It’s quite expensive for a nail polish remover though. I’m still not sure if I want to repurchase.


wrap me up with kisses and sweet serendipity, bitsandtreats

Finally, these two products that I finished early February. Love the body scrub, the shower gel not so much.

So those were my February empties. I was really surprised at the amount of products I finished this month. I even topped my January list! Let’s see how March fares.

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...

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...

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...
