Baby Lips #FAIL

A while ago I purchased a Maybelline's Baby Lips and said in a previous post that I would see how did it worked and if it was as miraculous as they preached it to be. They claimed that the product would soften the lips increasingly in a 4 weeks time if you used it consistently and religiously. I did this for the first...what...2 weeks, and noticed that my lips got softer at times but later on they got supper chapped and had to pile more of the product up in my lips for them to be soft again, and once the product was fading up, they become chapped again, this was starting to really annoy me exponentially and iIwas becoming moody and not about the topic. This crazy way of applying the product was, in my opinion, just a marketing strategy for people to keep on using it excessively so that they believed that the product was the one being miracolous, when in reality, it was making the lips more chapped and annoying. 

My final say about the baby lips? They are not good at all and I won't be repurchasing the product. I really like the other Maybelline products like their mascaras, their nail polishes and their eyeliners, but this one didn't matched up with my expectations and I felt dissapointed when the chap-iness started to occur. Instead of getting softer lips, I ended up  with super dry lips, a bad mood and a bad relationship with water (cause it was not helping with the dry-ness). 

Baby Lips score: 2 out of 10.

Current Status: Stressed

For so long, and after being 2 months or so apart from the blogging world, I finally sat down, and decided to start writing even though I had no plan on doing so and therefore my rambles will be here on and on and on again.

My mood: Meeh
My hopes: underground
My dreams: semi-starstruck
My goals: on hands reach
My spirits: not so good
My motivation: needs improvement

I have this strange urge to sit down and write my heart out in poems and in little verses and phrases. Maybe it is this mix of feelings overflowing my mind, that maybe my heart can handle but my brain is not prepared to. On Sunday I had a major break down, life is just not loving me right now, in every single aspect it tries to screw me over. I need some chill time. I will try to relax (but i think that there are waaay too many things on my plate right now that my mind is just not wanting to respond as it should).

Ramblings and rants stop here.

Almost fine now that I poured my frustrations here, things can get a little more cheerful, but not now, maybe from the next post onward.

Have a good day, I'll try to have one too.

January Diary 2014

After being lost for about a month, things have been pretty great.

I have had awesome experiences both in my personal life and in my work life. People has come and gone, leaving great opportunities for me to learn and grow and apply the knowledge for better. 

Somethings I've learned from them: 

1) Sometimes words don't have an actual meaning. Cause they don't and that is how it is. 

2) If you want something, don't wait for it to fall from the sky, an action is better than just sitting around waiting, it will lead you to the result you actually want. 

3) Things happen for a reason, it could be for better or worse, but it in the end, everything falls into place. 

4) Family is the most important thing in life. They are your support system at all time 24/7 all 360 days of the year with no holidays in between. 

5) Some friends become family. See point 4)

6) Actions say more than words do. 

7) You have to be yourself. At every moment, every time, no matter who you meet. They either love you or hate you, keep the ones who do love you. 

I'd make a 10 thing list, but for the moment, 3 are missing, which will need a review before posting! sometimes putting yourself out there is no better, but it may help. (I'll make an update later) 

January was a great month, a great learning experience and a great time. I hope the rest of the year is as good and as fruitful. 

here a few of my favorite things. 

 

Have a nice Sunday everyone!

Not an apology nor an excuse.

It has been waaaaaay too long since I posted here. I have nothing to say about it, just that I have been running around like a crazy person and my batteries were always running low by the time I got home. I had no energy therefore no imagination to sit down to write a lengthy blog post or even a small one with pictures in it.

Today is a Sunday of my so-not-summer-vacations from University, and as my last semester approaches, and work is more hectic than ever, I decided that this was enough and started writing. I really do miss time for myself like this, and I feel that in the way I have lost my writing essence. It feels odd and like rusty with the time that has passed by. The last post was on November!? Say what? I have to catch up on a lot of things with all of you, and I will be posting bits and pieces here and there.

Although I haven't been absent on my other social media like instagram and twitter, I feel like nothing compares to writing in a more chit-chatty form which is more familiar and friendly to all. I am not good at wrapping things up, so I will just say...till later alligator!

Merry Belated Christmas and Happy Belated New Year to all!
