Replacing My Hoops with Baroque Pearl by Tesori Rosari

Earrings are very important accessory for women, because it enhances the beauty and feature. It completes an outfit and balance and shape your face as well. That's why, earrings are a must have, no limitation on the time you should wear them.

I've been wearing the same gold hoop earrings for years now. They've become my "signature," that sometimes literally I wear them to bed every night. On special occasions I'll try swapping them out for a big gold hoop or beaded statement pair earrings, but as soon event is over I hurriedly back and change them. I've become a prisoner of my own hooped making, and I'm trying to break the cycle! 😆😆😆😊

Thankfully, I've met Jacinta Eve, owner and at the same time maker of her own rosaries and jewelleries of TESORI ROSARI and I also noticed this jewellery trend all over my Instagram feed — a new pearl shape is taking over. And these aren't your grandma's pearls, but an on-trend UNIQUE baroque style pearl that I've fallen in love with.

BAROQUE PEARL BRACELET
9mm baroque/irregular pearls on a plated chain. Available now dainty stainless steel, gold plated chains. Non-tarnish. Non-fade.

Is it just me or are these things sexy? The irregular shape feels sensuous and romantic, but are ideal for everyday use.

What's Baroque Pearl? Pearls that are irregular, non-spherical shape with dented and uneven surfaces. They often exhibit beautiful lustre and colours.

And what I like more about it, these pearls are all cultured freshwater pearls. Meaning these pearls are mantle-tissue nucleated instead of bead nucleated. Though these are not as valuable as other types of pearls, but who cares? As long as, it gives you that modern vibe look and are very versatile. It gives you with a unique twist, making you stand out!

This is probably why baroque pearls have been rising in popularity in Instagram lately. Because it helps you showcase your personality, they are non-conformist and a modern alternative to the classic pearl we've known.

And because I'm celebrating my birthday today, April 21, I bought myself this baroque pearls. A birthday gift to myself that I can cherish as long as I live.

Aromacology Sensi Magic Cushion Anti-Aging Skincare

Whew! I've been away from reviewing product line that long!? Got busy when my other sites, PAL RAINE and ANYTHING ABOUT DAVAO in posting press releases and giving information for Davao people. Time really flies when you are busy and having fun with works, that I didn't realize it was a month ago when I last posted a product review entry here in my blog. Are you still here? I hope you are!

Anyway, as an officer/member of the Davao Digital Influencers, one of our mission is to support and promote product brand from MSME's (Micro Small Medium Enterprises) here in the Philippines especially in Davao. I've been a supporter of this brand for almost a year now, and still excited to promote its product line.

One of the things that I worried about is my skin most specially my face. I love my complexion, but since I'm 40 now, I need something that can help me look better for the Holiday season.

Aromacology Sensi has been my skin and beauty partner for years now. (You can read my post here and click for more about Aromacology Sensi in my blog site). I had a quite makeover and treatment from them, what I like with the brand is that they use 98% made in raw materials like herbs, flowers, and fruit extracts plus their skin care products are best for Asian's sensitive skin and it is a BFAD approved product!

Aromacology MAGIC CUSHION

Magic Cushion become a fad via the list of awesome Korean Beauty Products, but to tell you the gist they are literally cushions soaked in BB cream ( known as "blemish balm" or "blemish base") inside a compact, paired with an applicator puff.

The formula in the Magic Cushion is apparently same as that of a bottled foundation but what makes it magic it all comes with collagen extract that restores skin elasticity, giving it a smooth, supple appearance combined with hamamelis and bamboo extract that soothe and hydrates skin.

Another thing is the blue applicator puff that comes in a compact, it is a non-absorbent.

Yes! A non-absorbent puff. Sound confusing? Right? When we used old sponge puff it absorbs the makeup and expels the content to our face with pressure is applied. And you need to blend the the puff to distribute it evenly to your face.

While the special blue puff has minimal absorption to give your face a flawless, dewy glow. Just pat onto face!

The excellent coverage leaves skin flawless, refined and photo finish, concealing the signs of time left on fine lines and discolorations with SPF 50+/PA++.

THE EXPERIENCE

Filipinos and most of the Asians are obsessed with lightening the skin. There are many that love and embrace their natural skin color, it's just a matter of choice. Here in the Philippines, there 3 ways in lightening and making our skin to glow: the Papaya soap, IV Glutathione and Magic Cushion.

It was my first time to use a magic cushion, but I already read a lot of positive reviews from different brands. Actually, I'm planning to buy online, but because I see the poster of Aromacology Magic Cushion I have to change my plan.

I tried the magic cushion. As for the after results, I did not notice a sudden change to my face skin tone, but I did notice that wrinkles did not occur on my face, skin was smooth, moisturized and glowing! Then after 10 minutes, I've notice that my face lightens.

The result was amazing! No wonder everyone loves magic cushion!

For the price, it is very affordable compared with other products. If your thinking to buy online but you have budgeted money, why not try Aromacology Magic Cushion.

They have an Introductory Price of PHp600 this run until December 20, 2016 only.

Visit Aromacology Sensi located at E. Quirino Ave., Davao City besides Body Excellence Shiatsu Clinic fronting EastWest UniBank Bldg.

It Starts in Paris: The Victoria Secret Fashion Show 2016 #vsfs2016 #vsparisfs2016

This is the first time I'm gonna post something different. I will not do product review but rather write something about the most talk about event of this year, especially to all Fashionista - the Victoria Secret Fashion Show 2016.

It Starts in Paris

As of this writing, we have 25 days-22 hours-06 minutes to witness the grandiose and magnificent appearance of the Victoria's Secrets Angels Line Up wearing different styles and designs of sexy lingerie and sleepwear, to be held at the Grand Palais in Paris this December 5, 2016, Monday, 10 PM EST.

A Retsospective: Exhibit their 2015 Runaway at their new 5th Avenue Store

This is the first time that Victoria's Secret Fashion Show comes to the City of Lights for their Parisian Fashion Show.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Showcasing BEAUTIFUL - the bra behind 2016 Fantasy Bra by Victoria Secret.

Jasmine Tookes try on $3 Million Bra

Introducing the $3 Million bra "The 2016 Bright Night Fantasy Bra" designed exclusively for Victoria's Secret by Eddie Borgo. It takes 700 hours in making this bra, because of its meticulous and very precise details: 9,000 gemstones. 450 carats.

See video here, how Jasmine Tookes discover she'll have the honor of wearing the 2016 Fantasy Bra for this year runway show.

I feel sad with the news, that Janine Tugonon misses the slots as one of the Victoria's Angels. It was a nice try Janine, better luck next time.

FINDING THE TALENT

There are 500 girls hoping to be part of the show. A tough job indeed for casting director, Mr. John Pfeiffer.

Good luck and congrats to the chosen one.

Anyway, let us meet the 12 Victoria's Secret Angels Line Up:

CREATING THE COLLECTION

When we talk about VS Fashion, there is a unique and stand up artistic vision behind every look of the models wearing it. The incredible designs and styles come to life as they hit the runway.
