…from the ocean. shining in the sun, covering up the shore~ PEARLY SHELLS!!! kekeke~ I got loads full of pearls from my daddy who visited Palawan a few days ago :D I wanna go to Palawan too, someday and visit the underground river!!!

Pearl bangle! SO PRETTY @.@ and it’s a bit heavy kekeke~ wrist muscles (>,<)~///

I chose pink peach pearls mostly because I’m just so girly :)) and I already have white ones~~

Then this pretty bracelet has pearls dangling at the middle~ :>

I love PEARLS <3 if I could only wear them ALL everyday~! (hahaha Donya vibe)

The most interesting piece that daddy bought~~~….. :D :D

Kung Hei Fat Choi!!~ How did you celebrate Chinese New Year?~ I hope you all had your fair share of tikoy (^.^)/
Today’s product review is something sent to me by The Beauty Bag about a month ago :>

Awarded Superbrands Philippines’ Choice!
Royale Beauty Kojic Papaya Soap moisturizes and lightens the skin, has mild peeling effect.
Kojic Acid is really popular now! It is derived from mushrooms and other plants that will make skin whiter with continued use~ Then there is papaya! The pulp from the papaya can help prevent wrinkling and as we all know (yes ever since papaya soaps became such a huge hit) whitens skin! So this particular product has 2 powerful whitening ingredients combined! Kojic and Papaya~

I love how they packaged this! All the needed information are written on the packaging!! Including the date of manufacture, date of expiry, where it was made, net. weight and ingredients!

They really gave a lot of thought into the packaging! It’s super nicely packaged :>

Pull the tab to get the soap :> And you’ll then smell the nice scent! <3 It smells like papaya + something I can’t explain (maybe the kojic is that something)

Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Stearic Acid, Glycerin, Cocodithanolamide, Water, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Lactate, Kojic Acid, Papaya Extract, Yellow Iron Oxide, Red Iron Oxide, Perfume.

Have beautiful hair everyday :> Currently, I think this is the longest I’ve grown my hair! Before, I always had short Geum Jandi Style hair cuts cause it was such a breeze to wake up to, get ready and go to school with! But now I have longer hair~ It needs more care!!! <3 (Plus the fact that I always have hair color on XD)

In the rushing mornings of weekdays, sometimes I forget to condition my hair @.@ And whenever I forget, my hair gets unruly and less manageable!!!! Not smooth at all!

So I decided to give this a try! What reeled me in like a fish is that it RESTORES DAMAGED HAIR which I think I currently have cause of constant hair coloring…

Good job for reaching out to the market!!! I got myself their Nourishing Facial Wash with Tomato Extract :>
