Bath and Body Works Shopping Galore!!


     Hello guys! Todays post is not a review of these products ('cause they're so many 😁). I just wanted to share with you what I got from Bath & Body's promotion since the month of July started (I think 😉). 

Bath & Body Works 
 

     I bought them last thursday (at Sharjah City Center) for my personal use and for my family since I'm starting to fill in my 
Free cargo box from Tag from Wow 107 FM Dubai for my short vacation on November. 
     If I only have enough money, I will buy more. I just hope that they will still have promotions like this before November.
 
Bath and Body Works Fragrance Mist
 
     I got Aloha Waterfall Orchid, Blue Waters, Citrus Sun, Waikiki Beach Coconut and Honolulu Sun.

     * 236 ml - Regular price : 75.00Dirhams 
                       Sale price : 20.00Dirhams
 
     * 88 ml - Regulat price : 35.00Dirhams
                     Sale price : 7.00Dirhams


Bath and Body Works Body Lotion  
 
     I got Moonlight Path, Violet Lily Sky, Citrus Sun, Cozy Sunday Morning, Honolulu Sun and Gardenia & Fresh Rain. 

     * 236 ml - Regular price : 60.00Dirhams
                       Sale price : 10.00Dirhams

     * 88 ml - Regular price : 30.00Dirhams
                     Sale price : 7.00Dirhams

  Bath and Body Works Shower Gel
 
     * 295 ml - Regular price : 
                       Sale price : 10:00Dirhams

Bath and Body Works Hand Gel
 
     I got Juicy Georgia Peach, Turquoise Waters and Fiji White Sands.

     * 29 ml - Regular price : 15.00Dirhams
                     Sale price : 5.00Dirhams


     Whew!! I love all the scents but as I've said most of these stuffs are "pasalubong" for my family. Though my friend is asking me if we can go back there today 'cause she also wants to purchase those products esp the lotion and shower gel. So I think there's a Bath and Body Haul part 2 . I wish that they're still on sale. 
     
     That's it for now. Thank you for stopping by. Until my next one.

Common Makeup Mistakes (And TIPS on How to Fix Them!)


     Hello everyone! Today I am going to show you some of the common mistakes that I've made on my makeup when I'm not yet familiar with Google and YouTube. LOL!!

     So in the pictures below, you will see the THUMBS UP (👍- Right) and THUMBS DOWN (👎-Left) with my Eyes and Eyebrows. I'm not saying that the the Left side is wrong or looks terrible, what I want to emphasize is that the Right side looks nice and flattering. Let's begin in an orderly manner.




          * Choose the right color/shade of eyebrow pencil or whatever you want to use for your eyebrows.                   * Concentrate the dark color on to your eyebrow arc rather than the inner corner of your brows.

( Dark haired people should go one or two shades lighter than the color of hair on the head; Light haired people to go two shades darker than the color of hair on the head.)












           * Apply eyeshadow primer or concealer before applying your eyeshadow so it will blend easily and lasts longer.

            ( Don't forget to set your primer or concealer with powder to prevent from creasing )







         * Don't apply SHIMMERY eyeshadow all over your eyelid/crease most especially when you have hooded eyes (like mine), 'cause it will look more bigger and puffier. Instead, apply it on the inner area of your eyes and underneath the arc of your brows. 

When you apply eyeshadow, remember to blend, blend and blend.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       






       *  Don't make your lower lashline darker than the upper, 'cause it will looks like your eyes are tired and droopy. 

         (You can apply the same color of the lighter eyeshadow that you apply on your lids.)
        


   Overall, it's still up to you on how you want to wear or apply your makeup. Do whatever makes you happy and beautiful. I don't want to offend anyone  'cause I just want to share how my makeup improves (unlike before) and  basic tips that I have learned from my favorites beauty gurus. 

       Hope you like it and until my next one!! 


Lovelots,
yanie

Free Delivery Box to the Philippines!!


Yahooo!!! I just won a Free Delivery of a Regular Box to the Philippines from Wow 107 FM Dubai courtesy of Sky Freight Cargo U.A.E. I am not sure when they started the competition but yeah I got lucky so hooray!!! 

Anyway, I joined the competition when I accompanied my husband to Ajman. While we're listening to the radio (WOW 107), the lady presenter asked a question and if your are the lucky one you'll get a chance to win a Free Delivery Balikabayan box to the Philippines by Sky Freight. The question was "Bakit ka nagpapadala ng balikbayan box sa Pilipinas?", then you have to send it to 6467 by this format <WOW_NAME_YOURANSWER>. Since we are really planning to send cargo before we go for a vacation on November, I texted my answer right away which was "Nagpapadala ako ng balikbayan box para sa aking pamilya lalo na ngayon at kasama nila ang aming anak". But then, I am not so lucky. I guess it is not yet the time for me to win. When we got home I actually forget about it.

The next day in the office, the radio station that I always listening too suddenly lost a signal or (I don't know what to call it)so I look for another station and found WOW 107 FM. Yes, the competition from yesterday was still on-going.The question was the same though the radio presenter was different. I decided to try once again, texted my answer just like yesterday, and continue what I am doing that time, and for the second time I didn't get lucky. SAD!

But it didn't end there. On the next morning, with the same radio presenter I joined AGAIN! That time he has a different question, same price, same mechanics. It was "Ilang beses ka magpadala ng balikbayan box sa Pilipinas?" My answer was, "Once a year". Then after 10 or 15 minutes, my phone rang and I just stare at it for at least 5-10 seconds thinking who might be calling me. When I answered it, the guy on the other line said that he's Raz (actually I thought it's Rob hahaha! Just found out it was Raz when I checked their website hihihi) from WOW 107. OH BOY!! I just won a free balikbayan box! Then he told me that he will put me on hold and will speak to me after the song. So yeah, when we're ON-Air he asked me the question and blah-blah-blah. He said that someone will call me from their office on how I will claim my prize. When a lady called me she asked my complete name and gave the Sky Freight's phone number in case I haven't receive a call from them in 2-3 days. 

By the way, I upgraded my balikbayan box from Regular (53x51x51 cm) to Jumbo (53x51x76 cm). Since I only have the free delivery of a regular box worth Dhs129.00 to Luzon, I have to add Dhs70.00 for the jumbo box that is worth Dhs199.00. Below is the picture of the voucher and the box.



I am thankful that I won a free delivery box to the Philippines by just texting. Though I didn't got it on my first and second try, at least I got lucky on the third. Lesson learned, don't give up easily on the things that you really want and as they say "Try and try until you Succeed".

Thank you for your time!

P.s. This is my 6th times winning on a Radio contest/competition. The other 5 were from 104.8 Channel 4 Radio Dubai. :D
