Epsom Salt Foot Spa by Nailaholics + Happy Brows Gateway Mall is Now Open!

If there's one thing I always look forward to (aside from my trips), it's my once a month alone time. And what's my go-to place? Gateway Mall in Cubao! Why there? Well, aside from the fact that it's just a few minutes away from my apartment, it's also a one-stop shop for all things beauty! I can do my hair, nails, brows, skin and everything else without having to jump from one place to another. I don't even need to switch floors! One of my favorite places to visit is Nailaholics salon on the 4th level! I went there 2 weeks ago to have my nails done and also experience their newest offer-- Epsom Salt Foot Scrub! Read on to know more...

INSTAX Wanderlaunch + YSA + Dishwalla

Some people say I could be a rockstar, sometimes. The day before Bloggers United 8, I could say that I truly were! Haha. Instead of resting or working on BU stuff, I spent my day outside doing all sorts of things. Haha. Had a super long day filled with fun activities and memories. My first stop, was Going Straight salon near my apartment. Was supposed to go to STATUS, Katipunan but I was running late. Anyway, the Boracay cuties group knows that this salon thing is already waaaay overdue. Been planning this for 3 weeks na ata. Haha. It finally happened and I'm so happy!!! It has also been my tradition to undergo a hair change the day before BU. Most of the time I end up having horrible baby bangs. Lol. Loved the result this time, though! 

Went for the Lucy Hale hair and I love it! It actually feels liberating. Haha.

Headed to Vanilla Cupcake, Trinoma next for the INSTAX Wanderlaunch! I was late so I wasn't able to make it on time for the program, but I was still able to see the new styles they are launching!:)

 Say hello to these beauties! Brown Instax Mini 90 (so vintagey and also comes in black!) P7,999, Instax Wide 300 P6,999, Instax Mini 8 in Grape & Raspberry for P3,699 


My favorite is the Hello Kitty instax mini for just P4,999! Meg, bilhin mo na to! Haha. They are only selling 200 pcs of these:)

 Instax all day everyday

 they also have gift sets! perfect this holiday!

 Avail natin ang chandelier. Haha.

 Thank you Instax for my new baby. Haha!

 With Ana, Tin, Seph, Arnie and Moira of Instax!:)

Akin nalang pls. Haha. 

My Instax gift set that was super perfect sa blue mini 8 ko:) 

After the Instax event, Ana & I headed straight to YSA, Greenfields branch:)

BU the next day but we still managed to squeeze in some me time at YSA!

Ana tried their Cavislim again (super effective! saw the results on her) and I tried their bleaching service...
You should wait for at least 20-30 mins before taking it all off but since I have super sensitive skin, kinaya ko lang ng 10 mins. Huhu. Instant effect if you make it to 30!:)

Wasn't able to avail na Diamond Peel 'coz of time constraint but I will next time!!! It's one of my favorite procedures there. :) Ran to Megatent after for the DISHWALLA concert!

Up Dharma Down pa when we got there, followed by Wolfgang.

My concert buddy and forever pakner, Ana!

OMG so much feels. All of my Drowning Equilibrium days & feelings all came rushing back. Yes, oo na, emo ako noon. Haha!


Had so much fun singing along our favorite Dishwalla songs. I also love how intimate the set-up and venue was. Thank you Lord for the perfect weather and for hulog ng langit na si Niche for our free tickets:) WiIll be posting a video collage on IG. Anyway, super lagare coz after the concert we headed straight to Whitespace to get ready for Bloggers United 8! To sum it all up, we slept (but not really) & bathe at the venue na and wasn't able to sleep at all. But that calls for another blog post. :) Thanks everyone for coming last Sunday! Thank you Lord for the nice weather. I feel like I could work at PAG-ASA na after all the monitoring and weather updates & forecasts I did that day and before. Lol. 

I know I've been MIA again lately! So busy with a lot of things right now. Styling gigs, shoots, etc. Tracy and I are flying to Cebu this weekend for a magazine editorial shoot! So excited 'coz it will be the first time I will be sharing a page with my GF. We make a great team, in fair!:) Updates soon. Kisses! xo

Maldita Studio Salon Review

I've tried and tested a LOT of salons. If you backread my blog you would be able to read some of my experiences and reviews. I'm such a sucker for salon treatments, it's my mini vacation close to home. I'm sure most of you would agree when I say each session gives us a certain confidence and joy, like we're more ready to face the world. I don't want to sound superficial but it does help and uplift, believe me. With this being said, you wouldn't want to entrust your happiness to some lame excuse of a salon noh? Don't get me wrong, I loved all the salons I've tried-- well, except for some really bad ones which I wouldn't name. I also give honest reviews (you know that!). It's safe to say that MALDITA Studio Salon is by far the best I've been to and experienced so far. If I only have overflowing funds for maintenance then I wouldn't switch na, ever. But of course, top quality service equates to a little above average price chart. But I swear, it's all worth it! Here are photos:

 love that it's spacious! can you see Tin and Sarah? Hehe

My area. Love that  it's well lighted and the minimalist design! I'm a sucker for black/white combo

Senior hairstylist Lhem doing a thorough checkup of my hair.

more more checking! 

After almost 10 minutes of assessment, he finally decided to just give my hair a gloss treatment. I love how he doesn't sugarcoat and is direct to the point. In summary, he said my hair needs a break and asked me to just let it heal for a while from all the coloring and perming which has turned my hair into dinosaur. Haha. It was exactly what I needed to hear. So far, up until now, results have been great. So thank you Lhem!:)

food and drinks from Mango Tree Bistro. Yum!

Price List!

Hello fellow Malditas. Hehe. 

 love my new hair!

The treatment lasted for about an hour. I love how soft and manageable my hair felt after! Also availed their mani/pedi and eyebrow threading services. Loved it!:)
