Locycare Nail Gel Launch #BareThoseNails

     Can you #BareThoseNails? I presume the answer will not be a resounding yes but half yes, half maybe and mostly no. If you love painting your nails on a daily basis, I will not be surprised if you can't bare those nails. I'm sure that long time nail polish users are worrying about the state of their nails. Nail polishes look pretty in our nails but in the long run, it will take its toll not only in the nail bed but also on the surrounding parts like the cuticle and free edge.

     While putting on nail colors is aesthetically pleasing, have you ever thought how these products, from one application to another, may adversely affect the condition of your nail plates? Nail polishes contain chemicals that may affect the condition of your nails that's why proper care should be accompanied every time you opt to have your manicure and pedicure in at your favorite nail spa or at the comfort of your own home. Without proper care, unhealthy, dull and discolored nails will result and there are times can pose minor health risk. We don't want that to happen, right? So here's a great news for nail polish addicts! Galderma Philippines introduces Locycare Nail Gel. To know more about the product, click CONTINUE READING and join me as I #BareThoseNails!

Sample Room's BBQ Cookout Party

     For some, summer is the perfect season because they get to enjoy the sea, sand, and sun. I have a love-hate relationship with summer; I love it because this season is the season where I best enjoy "halo-halo" and other frozen treats. I hate it because I'm afraid to bask under the sun for I get sunburn immediately. But this "hate" thing with summer came to an end when I joined Sample Room's BBQ Cookout Party. 

     I'm really thankful that Sample Room invited me to this event because I came to realize that there's nothing to worry about having fun under the sun as long as you're protected with products that blocks harmful UVA/UVB rays. I discovered one brand that carries different kind of sun protection products and from what I experienced during the event, I can truly say that their sunscreens are effective!

6 Modern Ways to Wear Pearls

     Long before pearls starting gracing fashion magazines and movie premiers, men and women throughout history have been coveting them for their lustrous natural beauty. The poster child of timeless elegance, these organic gems have slowly been making their presence known in the past few years – most recently, on the 2015 Oscar Awards. But pearls don’t necessarily have to be limited to glamorous awards shows. Let’s take a look at some modern ways that pearl jewelry can best be worn.

The Double Drape

     If you’ve got a single-strand pearl rope necklace, it can be given a whole new feel just by looping and draping it twice around your neck. While it works great with turtlenecks or other tops with high necklines, it provides a modern look with a sexy allure when worn underneath a blouse with the top buttons popped open to just the right level.

The Larger, the Better

     Larger pearls make a bold statement and complement outfits of neutral colors quite nicely. Large chunky bracelets are often showcased best when worn with short-sleeved tops whereas big pearl earrings can complete a sophisticated formal look.

6 Modern Ways to Wear Pearls

Romantic with Ribbons

     Wearing pearls with accessories of varying textures dresses up even the most casual outfits. While online pearl necklace stores usually have an abundance of necklaces with pearls and diamonds, ribbons and pearls work just as perfectly for that date-night ensemble. The combination of the soft fabric of ribbons and the hard sheen of pearls can add up to a romantic and whimsical piece to be pulled off even when wearing everyday outfits.

On Accessories

     Wearing pearls doesn’t have to be limited to the most common ways of wearing jewelry. Pearls can be added as embellishments on shoes, belts, watch straps, and even on hats. Add a touch of elegance to your look by wearing a pearl headband, or go the glamorous route by carrying a pearl clutch.

On Clothes

     Taking a cue from pearl accessories, these lustrous gems can also be sewed directly onto the fabric of your clothes. If Lupita Nyong’o’s red carpet stunner of a gown wasn’t proof enough that this works, try telling that to the fashion police. Different-sized pearls on the breasts of a cotton sweater can take it a level up from comfort casual, while pearls on denim overalls have been taken off the runway and onto the streets in trendy everyday wear.

Pinned on Hair

     Hair pins with single pearls look great on messy buns and chignons, and gives a fun and carefree vibe to your crowning glory. It may take a while for all of them to be removed afterwards and you may need to be extra careful about where you lay your head on while wearing them, but the look speaks for itself.

     Pearls are a lot more versatile than most people give them credit and can be used for more than just formal occasions. Whether you wear yours in a more traditional way or with a more edgy feel, pearl jewelry pieces are a must-have for every girl’s accessories box.

     Hello dearies! Who here loves reading? A book worm maybe, but that doesn't matter as long as you thirst for new information I'm pretty sure you want to own a hardbound book. In this age of digital technology, most books are in form of e-books. I'm not against those gadgets and book reader apps but I confess that I still prefer the traditional way of reading. I love flipping the pages of magazines, the smell of old books in the library, colorful visuals of cookbooks, and loads of information from reference books like dictionaries, language learning booklets, and many more!

     Months ago, Tuttle Publishing asked me if I want to feature their books and give one of them to my readers. Without a doubt, I said yes because I want to rekindle my love in studying Foreign languages and I find their language learning books interesting because some include audio discs, charts, and flashcards! When I visited Tuttle's website, I found a wide selection of books- name it, they have it because they are publishing 150 new titles every year! Whew!
