Sweet Escape

Uhh! Stretching definitely made me feel better, not to mention the jump! (haha!)
Impromptu outings, unlocking my “password protected” self and just go with the flow, breaking my routine and simply do something different – these are part of my blissful existence now.
These days, I’ve been to several places without so much planning at hand. Maybe 2009 was really a year for me to be out and about, be it alone or with my ever reliable friends to hangout with.
The experience was undoubtedly fun and definitely a breather away from chaotic and complicated life here in Manila.
I’m off to La Union and will try surfing for the first time. I am uber excited with the thought: hanging out with friends, meeting new people, boy watching on the side *wink*, the beach and the emotional sunset.
A few weeks back, before I went out of town, I bought a sunscreen for my sensitive skin. Sometimes, it gets annoying though looking for products for sensitive skin, aside from it’s hard to find and you have to read a lot of dos and don’ts, it’s also too pricey. I finally said goodbye to my derma’s sunblock gel (too pricey now for a small tube) and said hello to VMV Armada Face Cover 45.
Although the formula looks like a heavy cream, it was so natural (no artificial scent) and not sticky at all once applied. Unlike other sunblock that I’ve used, this gave me a powdery finish and definitely no more “kabuki” face! Look Ma! 
This can also be used as a primer before applying make-up, a bestseller indeed from VMV! While some products are on sale up to 70% off until December 15, this piece of goodness is not! Grrr!
Next must have is a breathable and quick drying Rashguard! Suggestions please? I was thinking of buying either a short or half sleeve one.
Common Sis, knock on a few doors as well and enjoy! Life is good. *wink*
Aww, I miss my dermatologist. As the second quarter of the year comes to an end and all the workloads seem to take in the form of an avalanche, all the more my time is squeezed, and keeping myself well-rested and beautiful seems to be a challenge. Heck, I even miss the darling stylist who does my hair. When my morning beauty ritual’s time’s cut into half, here are some of the routines I have adapted to make sure that I do not get late for work, and spend more time, IN work! ( rather than in front of the mirror )
Aren’t they beautiful??? The color, the shape ( squared perfection! ) If you say they’re not, then I’m mad at you ! Hahaha! ( Naw, kidding , just half-mad. Hahaha!).
