4261852811_7d8012fc95 Since it is February and the "Love Month," most of my posts here will be of course about it. Love is a very amazing gift and not all are fortunate enough to find it. When you do however, here are some truths that you will come to know.

Love makes all things look beautiful.

When you're in-love, the world is more colorful, much much brighter and a happier place to live in. Your afterglow reflects in everything that you do and in the people around you. I can't explain it either, this generally happy fortitude makes you want to do nice things to other people and your work becomes more and more inspired. See, when love is in our lives, it really is a good thing.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

There's nothing like missing someone so much and making each moment count.

2583772937_b209546326 You learn to compromise.

Compromising doesn't mean settling for something that you don't want but learning to not put your needs first before the relationship. When you agree upon something, it's a silent message telling each other that your relationship is more important than a petty squabble.

There are no simply no rules.

When you're in love, all the rules you have heard about and stood by will simply fly out of the window. It's a learning progress, you will be surprised at how many rules you'd have to bend and break for love. Of course, you'll understand this, when you're deep in it.

Trust is very important.

I read somewhere that it only takes a few seconds to break someone's trust and a lifetime to regain it. Once its broken, it's almost next to impossible to get it whole again.

3390372856_d39d3154a3 Be silly and corny and proud of it.

I was watching a movie earlier this morning, a rerun of a romantic comedy. "If you don't want to sound stupid, then you don't deserve to be in-love." That's what the female lead said, and she's right. Loving someone is something to be proud about, it’s a shame if you have to hide it.

All the sacrifices are worth it.

Love isn't love without sacrifice. Other people might have to give up more than most ever will in their entire lifetime but it doesn't make it any less meaningless. When it is done for love, you'll know that they're worth it.

Getting to own your own car has it's own perks and peeves. Yes it gets you conveniently where you need to go, sans the traffic but sometimes when you own a dated car, it can be prone to repairs. It would have been convenient to have Chicago auto repair on speed dial but locally and if it's an inopportune time then you're in a lot of trouble.

I used to own a Toyota Corolla back in college and it wasn't a new car. Since it had its toll in years, I often find myself checking it in a mechanic shop. It really was eating through the little savings I had left from my college allowance. There was even an incident when I had to get the water pump replaced. It's a good thing that I have good guy friends who I can call on when I'm having car trouble.

Now, thankfully I don't have much car troubles anymore since purchasing a new car. Up until now, I think it’s the best investment I've made so far.

Pastel-Flowers-Philippines There is only one day in the year when everyone thinks of only one emotion…love. Valentine's Day is in just a few days time and this special day is often marked by sweet nothings and gift-givings. Valentine's Day is not just for couples, you can also express love to the special people in your life. It is also the time to send love to loved ones several miles away to show them that they are remembered on this special day.

Island Rose is an online website providing products and gifts that you can send this Valentine's Day. Since it is online, even if you're in a different country, they have an online service that allows you to send gifts to the Philippines.

You can lose probably a few hours browsing through the entire product range offered on the site. There are dozens of bouquets beautifully arranged and nicely photographed so that you won't have to keep guessing on what type of flower you'll be sending. Just the same, if you're abroad, you can use the site to deliver flowers to the Philippines.

chocolates4 Aside from flowers, there are also Belgian chocolates and teddy bears that you can choose from in the Gift Shop section. The chocolates looked so good and tempting. I don't know about you but getting a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates during Valentine's Day (however traditional and cliché it might be), it still is pretty much part of a girl's expectations from her special someone. So if you're planning something sweet, you can't go wrong with this one.

As a special promo, Island Rose is offering a 10% discount until February 20, 2010. You can use the code VDAY022010 to avail of the discount.

IMG_0122Valerie Tan was a gracious host to us, a group of girls, who decided to come out on a Saturday afternoon to experience first-hand what airbrush makeup is. I first heard of airbrush makeup years before when I was watching the making of a J. Lo video and this was the type of makeup they were applying to her.

What are the benefits of airbrush makeup?

  • Gives a more professional looking finish.
  • Lesser visibility of pores and fine lines because it is silicone-based.
  • It is water-resistant to sweat and tears.
  • It is long-lasting.
  • It can be used for contouring not only the face but also the body.

compressor-set The Glambox Airbrush Kit aims to provide the same professional and expensive look directly in the comforts of our home and at an affordable price. It comes with a very cute and compact black and hot pink compressor and a small airbrush gun that is similar to airbrush guns used in paintings. So if you've had a design background and have used airbrush guns before, using the kit would be a breeze. For novices however, it only takes a little bit of practice to develop a feel in distinguishing the spray pressure that you can be comfortable to work with.

Glambox Airbrush Cosmetics 

We were able to try out the airbrush ourselves and had makeovers for both Jane and Hannah. Here are their before and after looks.

makeovers Glambox Airbrush Cosmetics What I liked about the Glambox Makeup line was the flawlessness of the look plus the fact that you don't have to re-apply it within the day. That's a definite plus for a woman always on the go who doesn't want to worry about her make-up while at work.
