The El-Cheapo Side of Belo

Roanne Vista 2007

Who doesn’t know Belo in the Philippines? Anyone would be ecstatic upon getting to know this famous dermatologist who does wonders on the stars’ flawless skin and hour-glass figure–making them shine and stand out.

And yes, I’m talking about celebrities.

Belo is one of the most sought-after doctors today, particularly those old and nouveau rich who can afford her lavish, sky-high beautifying treatments a common layman can hardly experience.

I must say, those dreadful stilettos I’ve been eying for a time at CMG have no place on that killer mob-infused train!

Got Candy On Your Lips? Try Lancome Juicy Tubes Swirl in Orange Fizz

Image courtesy of Lancome.frI’m not much of a lipgloss-in-a-tube fan since most of lip colors in such packaging reeks strange odor over time. I had a Lancome Juicy Tube in Beach Plum back then, which gave me a plum wine lips, but lost it when it accidentally felt off my pocket.

There’s a time when I was fond about Lancome Juicy Tubes Swirl. I was deeply fascinated by its yummy candy-colored design similar that of a candy cane. The pining didn’t last that long (since I’m more of a MAC fan) until last week, when I finally got ahold of this yummy treat in Orange Fizz.
