Hey guys! I'm back on my blog...a year+ since my last post (SORRY!). I've been fixing it for quite some time now because I feel like I need it to look perfect to fit my tastes. Previously, my blog was pink all over but now that I've gotten older, I feel like I'm more into a minimalist vibe.

So I know a lot of you celebrate Christmas and I thought it would be perfect to share with you my top 10 faves/highly recommended K-Beauty products that you can add into your Christmas wishlist! All of the products on this list will be available at Althea Korea since that's where I get my K-Beauty products from. I know you might be thinking "look at Kristine trying to shove Althea Korea in our faces" BUT let me tell ya, I trust Althea Korea 100%. Their products are legit and honestly, it's a bit tricky to buy K-Beauty products as there are a lot of counterfeit products going around these days. Do you really wanna risk that? I don't.

Also, look at this limited edition Christmas box!

Blah blah blah...moving on...

I will be providing links to every product so you won't have to do the searching on your own ;)

Here's my top 10 K-Beauty recommendations:

QUICK NOTE: I'll be reviewing the cushion and the eye primer first since I forgot to take a picture of the mascara, the lip tint and the makeup fixer. I'll update this over the weekend. Sorry T_T

Hey lovelies! I'm back with another review and this time it's a beauty box from Althea! If you didn't know, a beauty box is a package containing different products that fit the box's theme. Althea has a lot of beauty boxes available online. For example, if you're someone who wants to get rid of large pores, Althea has a beauty box specifically for getting rid of large pores! There is one for the special guys in your life too! You may think that it costs a lot since a box contains a lot of products but lo and behold! You save a lot of money when purchasing a beauty box~

Today I'll be reviewing Althea's Beauty Lifeguard Box. Perfect for the weather here in the Philippines. If you live in a hot, humid country, this box is perfect! It has products that are waterproof and will help your makeup stay on all day.

These are the products that you get in the box:

Quick blog update: In a few days (or weeks) I will be completely changing the look of this blog as this cutesy, pink theme is not really my style anymore. I've been quite MIA from blogging and filming but one of these days I will be back for sure! I am in the middle of creating new designs for my blog and creating a new intro for my Youtube videos as well. Just letting you know that if at some point you might see this blog and wonder why it's messed up, it's because it's under construction. Please look forward to the new look of this blog soon!

On to the review...

A few days ago I have received a package from Althea Korea. It's their new product, the Petal Velvet Powder. I was asked to do a review on it so I thought this would be perfect as I was planning on getting back to blogging again.

As usual, all packages from Althea come in a bright pink plastic with the Althea logo and the box usually is a pale pink (almost lilac) color. The box design changes when there is a special holiday like Christmas or when it's their birthday. Unfortunately, I was unable to take a picture because I was so excited to take a picture of the inside that I forgot to take a picture of the outside! Nevertheless, their packages are always beautifully and carefully packaged and wrapped with bubble wrap. I haven't received a box from Althea that was damaged.

Hi guuuuys!!! So!

FINALLY

I made my very first and long-awaited ULZZANG MAKEUP TUTORIAL omg

I'm so excited to make another one, what do you guys think?

Hi guys! I'm back yet again with another highly requested makeup tutorial: Korean ulzzang/dolly look!

To be perfectly honest, this look is leaning more towards the dolly look, in my opinion an ulzzang look should be more natural so I might make another version of this look. Although I've seen ulzzangs with this look, but most of them still go for a more natural look.

Here is the look:

Hey guys! As promised, I'm back with a long awaited tutorial: My Everyday Makeup!

I don't wear makeup literally everyday. By everyday I meant when I actually go outside my house or my usual makeup. n_n

[This post is picture-heavy]

This is the final look:

So let's begin!

Hello~ Today I will be reviewing two lip products from Etude House! It's a part of their new Fall collection "Etude House & Rose."

In this collection, they have an eyeshadow palette, two sets of nail polish, creamy eyeliners, and this, the lip tints. I got two of the eight lip tints from my Korean friend as a gift for my birthday.

Moving on... I've managed to squeeze in a review of my current favorite lip tint! Etude House Kissful Tint Choux (just so you know, it's pronounced as "chu") in #1 Red Choux~

People just love asking me what my eyeliner is.

~~I was planning on posting this tomorrow but then I thought, "why post it tomorrow when you can post it today?" lol~~ Scratch that. It's already 12AM so it's considered as tomorrow. Heh.

This is the eyeliner I'm using right now. Etude House Oh M'Eye Line Liquid Eyeliner in #1 Oh My Black. Read more to find out if this eyeliner is worth it...
