OPPO F1S:SUMMER #OOTD

The heat is on! It’s summer once again! The most awaited season of the year for most of us. Not only do we get to be free from responsibilities in school but we also get to enjoy basking under the sun at our favorite summer destinations.
So Girls. . . . Are you ready with your picture perfect summer #OOTD?

Let me share with you my picks for an “instaworthy” pic. I know most of us would want to show off some skin and this is the perfect time for you to do that. However, be sure that it would not be too revealing to get nasty comments from the traditionalists. ;)

One staple outfit for summer are the shorts. There are a variety of options you can choose from the length, material and designs. Just be sure you choose one that you’re comfortable with. You don’t want to end up pulling down those “pekpek shorts” on your entire trip. (But if you’re comfortable with it,then, go ahead! There’s no problem so as long as it won’t get in the way of doing your fun summer activities.)

Next, when choosing a top, be sure to wear something light for the skin since it would really be warm outside. Pick one that’s made out of cotton and choose summer or earth colors. You can wear sleeveless, spaghetti straps, off shoulders, or a plain tee will do. These choices will still allow your skin to breathe despite the heat of the sun.

For the footwear, it will depend on what kind of adventure you will be going for. If it will involve hiking, be sure to wear "comfy" rubber shoes. (I prefer one that has a memory foam in it. Your feet will definitely thank you for it.) On the other hand, if you will be going on a trip to the beach, it’s still nice to wear those colorful flip-flops.

(And, don’t forget to accessorize that outfit,Dear!) One important accessory this summer is a wide-brim hat. Aside from adding that summer vibe to your outfit, it would help in protecting your face from too much stares from Mr. Sun. (You would not want that beautiful face be overcooked, right?! LOL) Be sure to apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 as well for added protection. Another helpful item that will add flavor to that outfit is the sunglasses. Not only will it make you look more glamorous but it will protect your eyes from the hotness of Mr. Sun. (Believe me. . .He will be too hot to handle.XD)

Oh! By the way, bring a bag too. Pick a size that would allow you to bring all the stuff you need. Make sure it's a good quality bag or you might end up bringing your stuff in a plastic bag. (Remember:Travel Light!;)

Now, you’re good to go! Just don’t forget to bring that handy camera phone with you to capture all the beautiful memories you’ll be sharing with your loved ones this summer. Choose a camera phone that will bring out the vibrant colors of your summer #OOTD. One that will allow you to beautify that captured moment. A camera phone that will take not only the brightest pictures of you in summer days but also in the nights of summer. Leave them bedazzled with that summer #OOTD using the Selfie Expert: Oppo F 1s!

Have An Awesome Summer 2017! 8)

What's With LSS?

It was one fine day when I tried recording the song that kept on playing in my mind. I think this is what they call LSS (Last Song Syndrome)… However, another LSS (Lovely Sweet Sensation) came into me when my video was LSS (Liked by a SuperStar)…hehehe…;)

The song that I’m referring to is Perfect Strangers by Jonas Blue. Have you heard the song? It really has a catchy melody that you won’t forget it for a month or so. Perfect song for parties or just a simple R&R on the beach…8)…I tried playing the chorus on guitar and made a few revisions with the chords I saw online. Hope you like it!




I may not have played it perfectly but by the fact that the original singer himself, Jonas Blue, liked my video post on Instagram is enough reason for me to feel “kilig”-that LSS feeling- (Lovely Sweet Sensation). So, Sir Jonas Blue, if you’re reading this post, I Thank You! Now, I and my nephew feel more inspired making cover songs.

Keep Music Alive! <3

*Movie Star Feels*

Hi Ladies!

I just came from a trip from South Korea and I brought home so many stories to tell. This story that I’m about to share with you is one that would make any make-up fan or movie star wannabe giggle. So here it goes…

South Korea has been dubbed as the “Cosmetics Capital” in Asia and so it is but apt to check out and get some beauty products when you visit the country. I, together with a friend, was lucky enough to not just try out some of their beauty products but also to be made up by one of South Korea’s famous make-up artist, Mr. Seung Won Kim

From the time we walked down the streets of Gangnam, I already felt that Mr. Kim was famous.Two girls walked across our path and took a second look at him. We entered a make-up store, Aritaum, where he tried different shades of foundation on us.When he picked-up an empty container, you can tell that he got a bit disappointed. The saleslady couldn’t help but get rattled by the look in his eyes. (Uh-Oh! XD) After choosing a foundation, we went to another make-up store and tried on shades of lipstick this time. I and my friend couldn’t help but document the moment for it was like a “Wish Ko Lang” moment for us (hihihi) but this Korean saleslady told us to stop taking photos...and so we did…But,after they recognized Mr. Kim, they couldn’t help but get their camera phones to have a photo-op with him…(Oh! I thought taking pictures was not allowed in this establishment?! ROFL XD)

I did a little research on Mr. Kim and I found out that he is the first Asian makeup artist to the stars at the Cannes International Film Festival. To add up to his credentials, he is also one of Christian Dior’s Make-Up Maestros. (Like what I kept on telling him while he was doing my make-up, “It is but an honor to be made up by you. I feel like a movie star right now.” ;)) But what impressed me the most about him was how he managed to take a 180 degree shift in his career. From being a military man, agriculturist to a man who pursued his passion in arts & make-up. (Want to know more about him?

To tell you honestly, I’m really not that into make-up but I do apply them occasionally. I’ve managed to learn hair & make-up techniques from the magazines that I get to read when I’m in salons and short videos on YouTube. And, taking it from family & friends’ reactions, I can say I’m doing a pretty good job in preparing my look for events. ;)

From the website I’ve shared above, I found out that Mr. Kim has been known for teaching “Self-Make-Up” and has in fact published a book on it. (Will definitely try to find a copy...) But for now, let me share this short clip of Mr. Kim giving us a tip on how to apply foundation:







Mr. Kim will be launching his own cosmetic line this year.(Can't wait!) I’m sure it will be hot in the market for it came from a man who has passion for beauty and make-up.(Best of luck,Mr. Kim!:)

Meet the master make-up artist and the upcoming star of Koreanovelas…(Just Kidding!LOL XD)

Oh, did I tell you that we got to take home the IOPE air cushion and Espoir lipstick he tried on us?! (*Giggles* Thank you very much, Mr. Kim! And...YES!"you made our day a lot brighter" ;) ) I loved the shades he chose for me...I bet he can tell that I like my make-up natural looking as possible.<3

How about you? How do you like your make-up done?Feel free to comment;)



Kamsamhida! ;)
