Affordable organizer from IKEA

I've been so happily-giddy because I found a cute and affordable organizer that I can use for my make-up stash. I really don't have that huge make-up collection/stash or whatever you call it, I just love to buy and play with them in some moments in my life ha ha ha Oh well, who doesn't love to play with colours?

You can also use this organizer for personal hygiene products, perfumes, and other  stuff

IKEA

Foldable, so its easy to keep and store

My not-so big make up stash 

I'm still looking for a great brush holder that has cover so brushes will be clean as they are stored. For now I used a small box for my face brushes, and other brushes like are stored in a brush roll bag from Suesh. I'm currently waiting for my new brush set which is called "HOPE" series by makeupbytoni. I'm gonna be doing a "What I got for my birthday blog/haul" next and that includes it. 

Thank you for dropping by lovely readers! If you got any request like reviews etc. just comment down below :)

MIA; but im back and as promised..

Oh yes, I've been missing in action cause I've been busy with language school, and Julia got sick again :( But she's fine now thank God. So months ago, I posted a blog post that when I reach at least 60 followers via GFC before my birthday, I'll be doing a international giveaway. But I wasn't able to reach that number, so instead of hosting an international giveaway, I picked ONE active follower and she will receive a little something from me since it's my birthday in 2 days! What is it? SURPRISE! I'll just request the lucky blogger to post a short haul of what she will receive from me =)



And the lucky active follower is............ *drum roll*

Ms. Janet Lao of Journey on Beauty

Congratulations! Please do leave your email address on the comment box, so I'll know where to contact you =) Yey!

What's your favorite scent?

Wearing perfume EVERY day was kind of not usual for me. But there was a certain scent that I literally used like everyday, at school, or just when going out. Sharing you my top 5 favorite scents, since I've tried tons of colognes/perfumes, there are certain scents that I would happy to repurchase over and over again.

What I love to repurchase:

5. Clinique Happy heart - mild scent, and I love the smell as it fades within the day.

4. Clinique Happy - the original scent for women by Clinique

3. Clinique Happy to be (Limited Edition) I think it was discontinued 2009? Im not sure. Orange-y smell, not too strong or too fruity! Perfect for everyday use. Was a bit disappointed when Clinique decided to discontinue it. Ugh, I can't explain how much I loved it!!

2. Versace Bright Crystal (Fave scent as of the moment), introduce to me by the seller of perfumes, since I was torn between buying Bvlgari Omnia, or this. But wow! The seller introduced me to a new kind of scent, I'm so loving it now. I like and love how the smell fades, and really lasts long, not just even a day!

1. D&G Light blue (all time fave) - No wonder, I always have this with me. It's just my ultimate fave, maybe because of the "light" scent. I don't know but I love it!

scents I have now, from L-R
Clinique happy approx 48USD
D&G Light blue 85USD from Doha airport
Givenchy - given to me by mother in law
Versace - bought this from an online seller for Php3100 approx 73USD
Juicy perfume- gift from the gorgeous ninang Anne, its a box of 3. I gave the other one to my mom.

How about you what's your favorite scent? Share it by leaving a omment below! I would love to try new scent!! :)
