FYI I'm a Girl . Christmas Morning

I ordered it May 28 and it arrived May 29! and yes, it was like Christmas morning that day :))

Matte is kind of 'in' lately and I'm dying to have the best matte on earth. Lol well, I've read different articles and I'm still on the stage of not spending a lot on make ups (I think I'll leave that stage soon) lol. I found this seller on Instagram who sells NYX Cosmetics and wuhooo! I have 4 tubes of matte lipstick and I'm planning to buy more soon. :D


I also asked my sister, cousin and my mom if they want to because I think it will be a waste of money if you'll just order one piece then there will be this freaking unreasonable shipping fee (but of course my Sounds Like Noise is a different story) hehe. So yeah, I ordered 4 tubes my sister ordered 2 as well as my cousin, 1 for my mom and another 1 for my aunt total of 10 fucking tubes of  lipstick! Haha. You might think I own everything but naah, I just thought of the amount of shipping fee and 100php is worth it for 10 tubes.

And since I don't own everything, I'll just post what's mine. I got 3 soft matte and 1 matte.



I'm not good on reviewing make ups but you have to deal with how I do it on my own way. haha


Sweet Pink - Its more lighter than the Shocking Pink and I think I did a very good job on choosing this but I think I still want the Shocking Pink ... haha

Monte Carlo - I love this! I've used this already and dang I'm freaking in love with the result! (next time I'll post picture while I'm wearing it ... I was in a hurry to hangout with Nikka the day I wore this so no picture)

Buenos Aires - I ordered this because I think it will be a very good alternative for my MAC. Its lighter than Sounds Like Noise and it looks like a nude one and I guess every girl should have a nude lipstick unfortunately I don't do heavy eye make up (because nude lipstick go well with heavy eye make up and in my case if I'm wearing too much dark clothes then its time for some 'almost' nude lipstick).

here I'm wearing it earlier today ...

here's when I'm wearing the Sounds Like Noise


Addis Ababa - its lighter than the Sweet Pink but I love this too!

here's a photo when I tried everything

I love the little hearts on the tubes <3

I'm really into pink, red and a little bit of orange lipstick.

I'm not professional on doing make up reviews and there's a lot out there you just have to search on who fits your taste on doing make ups.

But I highly recommend NYX they have huge make up collections and they have the best matte lipstick (for me at least) and its cheap too (just beware of FAKEs because it have a different result). Maybe I should try glossy next time but for a moment I really love the effect of matte. And I'm planning to buy maybe next month and I should plan on what to get. Haha! See, I'm such a girl who thinks picking a lipstick color is such a huge problem. :D

And btw, NYX is a cruelty free. (I just gave attention to that issue because of Carina). :) 

though my name is incorrect .... 

if you're from the Philippines then you can get you own NYX cosmetics at MAPSHOP.PH 
and check NYX website

Thank you mapshop for the fastest transaction ever! I'll order again soon :))

Beware of fakes!

See you on my next FYI, I'm a Girl post :*

FYI, I'm a Girl . MAC x Hayley Williams


What a way to start my week last week, usually Monday is one of my rest day and when I woke up super late, someone is waiting on me. (Drum Roll please) its "the" MAC x Hayley Williams - Sounds Like Noise (!!!!!!!!).

I was surprised because the seller told me last week that the new stocks will arrive in a week and a half and that means I'm still going to wait for that because the one that was on-hand was already reserved for some early birds but maybe some of them passed the reservation days so mine was sent early as expected. (But I already didn't asked that I just assumed that. Lol)

Introducing my first ever MAC and its a limited edition and its by Hayley Williams!!!! (Sorry, well not really I'm a huge fan. Really)

MAC x Hayley Willams : Sounds Like Noise


Yes this was my first MAC since I was born. Lol. But yes, the title says it all. Hahaha. I've been following lot of bloggers since 2009 (?) Yes I think that was right and seeing them posting something about make-up is normal and I never thought that MAC are really addicting (dang, I haven't used mine and I'm saying that it is addicting... What is happening???!!!! Hahaha). Actually, I want to give credit to Regina Belmonte (as if she can read this. Lol but its the interwebz so, hi and thank you Regina) because she always encourage shy girls to wear lipstick specifically, red lipstick and believe me red is really something. Even though you see this to artist like Anne Curtis, you can also wear something like that just be proud of it and know the shade that fits you. And I'm not an expert at this you can visit Michelle Phan or let's go local, visit Carina's blog! (I discovered her beauty blog via Regina too! Hi Carina!)

Since I'm always on a budget I got limited stuff only but lately, I've spent a lot on shoes (like last year I got my pink docs and this year the green one, I got a DSLR as a birthday gift, I watched the Paramore concert early this year, blah blah blah) and cosmetics are at the bottom of my list but I got some cheap tubes and I'm fine with that but this, this is a limited edition MAC x Hayley Williams so there's an exception. Lol. I remembered on interview that Hayley also got her first MAC somehow this shade so it means a lot to her and one of her favorite color is orange so.... And do you know that one meaning of orange is "new beginning" (?) Learned that on humanities when I was in college. So it really is something. ;)

For me its a bit odd to start using some cosmetics since I'm always on a safe side or the one who doesn't care about how I look but since 2011, I already started wearing lipstick and I only have 3 shades: pink, red and plum and they are cheap lipstick but since I was researching, its better to start on a cheap ones than the expensive most especially when you are still experimenting. And I'll admit I'm still on experimenting stage but I think having my first ever MAC is already a big jump (I really don't know...haha) and I'm planning to order some NYX Matte Lipstick maybe next week or early June (but really, I want to order already.... As in right now....) I hope my future order will still be on-hand when I ordered because I really wanted a matte lipstick! Can anyone give me like a package of a make-up for starters? With all the brushes and some basic stuff..... Hahaha. But as I'm just supporting my make-up issues I'm fine with lipsticks maybe eye liner will be next. (Brb, I will practice on putting some.... Lol). 

But seriously, MAC is really something and now I understand why girls love it so much and why they go crazy with the limited edition/s like the Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga, Rihanna / RiRi , the Archie collection, the Wonder woman collection, the Villains collection, etc. (I knew those collection because of the people I follow on sns). Its a special kind of product. (Hey MAC, I can accept anything from yah. You know... Hehe)


Thank You Glamour House :))




Maybe after buying the NYX I'll be able to shut myself first so I can buy something related to gadget again.... Uggghh. And my dilemma this coming June / July to September / October... Its the UAAP season again! My expensive season is coming to town and I haven't start saving for my next tattoo yet. -_- I need to save save save ..... This also happens when no one wants to support me on d-101.

This last part is just a rant so... Till next time on my FYI, I'm a girl series posts. Haha
