Lipstick basics

General guidelines on wearing lipstick:

Cooler tones, those on the bluer end of the spectrum, work better for fairer skin. Warmer tones, those closer to the red and orange, work best for people with darker skins.

Use warm and creamy shades (more pink, less red) for office. Evening light is more forgiving so you can wear sheer fuchsias for fair skin or brick reds for those with olive skin.

You can try on shades that professionals say look beautiful on early everyone: a sheer berry,subtle pink, or light brown or nude spiked with gold bronze or red.

Generally, the wetter the texture, the less long-wearing but more goof-proof a lipstick is.

Save the heavy gloss and the shimmery stuff for night.

Gache: BEAUTIFUL in BRAIDS

Facts:

Gache is a big wig in braids.

It usually weighs 3 - 4 kilograms.

It takes 6-7 years to make a Gache.

To Koreans, wearing these big and heavy wigs makes them look more beautiful and elegant.



At first (I'm talking about the first time korean drama was aired in the Philippines - I think that was 2003) I found it awkward....

What is a friend?

What is a friend? I'll tell you.
It is a person with whom you dare to be
Yourself- your soul can go naked with him.
He seems to ask you to put on nothing.
Appreciating you for who you truthfully are.

When you are with him, you do not have to be
on your guard. You can say what you think,
so long as it is genuinely you.

He understands the contradictions in your
nature which cause others to
misjudge you. with him you breathe freely...
you can profess your little vanities, envies
and absurdities - and in opening
them up to him, they are vanished
onto the white ocean of his loyalty.

He understands. You can weep with him.
laugh with him, pray with him...
through it all, he sees, know and LOVES you.


these were written on the present that my best friend gave me for Christmas.... i thought it was cute... so... i wrote it here... :)

학생 is back to school

I'm back to school today.

And and maybe I'm currently standing under the heat of the sun, singing the national anthem or sitting on my chair listening to whatever is being discussed right now.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I'm safe with you, Harry"-> omg. that line makes cry...... :'(


I've been too busy watching Korean drama, searching the net about anything Korean, and school of course, that I already forgot about Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. I good thing I saw it on the newspaper yesterday....... It said that it was supposed to be released last November 2008 but was then moved to July 17 2009. The news paper also said that Raplh Fiennes' nephew, Hero Fiennes Tiffin would be playing as the young Voldemort.

I cried when I was on the chapter where Harry had to make Dumbledore drink that liquid from the basin to get that "fake" Horcrux, as well on his burial and I think I'd be crying a lot more when I see it on the movie.

I've been waiting for the Deadly Hallows paperback since school started, back in July '08 and until now, I still can't find one. I guess It would be available in the Philippines only by Summer. idk......... I haven't checked bookstores since last last month........
