9 Ways on How to Spot a Fake Chanel Bag (Photos and Complete Authenticity Guide)
Top 10 things to look out for when authenticating a Chanel bag #1 The CC Logo The right C should overlap on top, and left C should overlap on the bottom. If it’s the other way around, it’s a fake. The width of the C should also match the width of the horizontal gap between the two Cs. If the bag you are looking at has a CC on the inside, it should feel soft and not as if there is a card board inside. #2 Turn Style Lock The lock on the authentic bag is much flatter in shape and wider in font type whereas the lock on the fake bag is…

My BeautyMNL Shopping Experience and Haul
When only half of my face has make-up on, you know you’ve been swatching How are you?! I’m still semi-distracted and been yes, lazy on writing my features and reviews. Admittedly because of that thing called pag-ibig. I’m lovestruck. I can’t sleep on time. My laptop is just beside me all the time but my mind prefers to wander and daydream instead. BUT! Ryan and I discussed a so-called pie chart of our lives in which we are only 1/8th of the pie. The rest are family, work, health, money, etc etc. Do you agree? I learned my lesson not to give 100% when it comes to relationships. Keep something for yourself so…

Chanel No 5 Does Smell Like Babies! A Fragrance Review
What? Chanel No5 EDP Perfume Review Where to buy? Rustan’s Essences / Rustan’s Beauty How much does it cost? 2,595php/50ml Initially, whenever I hear of Chanel No 5 from my lola, I get prejudicial about my lola’s taste in fragrance. I tell her Chanel No 5 is for old people and smells awfully strong. But the truth is, I never even sniffed or whiffed that perfume before. Only in stories. After browsing around Rustan’s Essences in Shangri-la Mall (Shaw) for a new signature scent (My old favorite: Narcisso Rodriguez EDP) I finally got the courage to try Chanel perfumes. I sprayed on my wrist. *sniff sniff* Surprise! It smells like a combinatation…

[MAKEUP] Chanel Narcisse Joues Contraste : Review and Swatches
It’s the Chanel Joues Contraste in Narcisse. A blush that will give you oh so slightly fresh pink color that will make your dull skin appear healthy and blooming. I almost forgot about this blusher when I also fell in love with Bobbi Brown’s Shimmer Brick. But alas, I cannot use a super shimmery rouge during office and daytime. So I remembered my beloved Narcisse. It just glows with flash 🙂 It’s not warm, it’s not cool. I can say it’s definitely a neutral pink that will match cool warm or neutral tones. I’m just not so super sure if it would show up on our gorgeous morenas (tans) since the pigmentation is…

Yes yes yes Me wearing only…

Spend vs Save: Chanel Rouge Allure Laque Dragon
Because of my blogger friend Donna, I was inspired to search for cheap alternatives for high-end products. She suggested to try Careline lipglosses. I tried and was amazed with the texture, pigment, and staying power of this gloss. More of that in my next post as I bought the best colors available and swatched all of them on my lips! (individually of course) The color Im going to feature today is the red one. Though not exactly alike, I found it to be similar to Chanel’s Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon. A lip color with the right amount of gloss and color. Haha.. pardon me for the messy application. But for 60 pesos…
