Etude Playhouse Pink Fair 2012

Photo from ETUDE HOUSE FB FAN PAGE

Yesterday was a sweet pink fair day at Etude Play House!

I went all the way from Cavite and arrived on the venue for about an hour earlier.

I was like "Whoa!Dang the line was already long!". /sweat

Pretty impressing that Etude House PH was way even more prepared! They managed to handle everything well despite the number of early princes and princesses. Kudos!

I had loads of fun taking photos, participating on games, meeting fellow bloggers, seeing familiar faces which I see online and learning new things from the beauty and fashion experts.

BTW, I got my ticket from Atty. Donnarence of My Lucid Intervals. Thanks Donna, I owe this experience to you!

There were facial care and make-over, which I just enjoyed watching since the line was literally long on both stations. And of course lots of sweets, which I really like!

Games and photo booth (which I also didn't got the chance to experience *sob*) were on the other corner. Free MEG magazines were also given. Say hello to Betsy (the pink beetle car of Etude House)! :)

And of course a majestic PlayHouse wouldn't be complete without learning new things. There were a lot of nifty discussions which can help us gain confidence and enhance ourselves. Proper skin cleansing, exfoliating (which I learned should be done every other day acc. to Mr. Boram Kim and I was just exfoliating twice a week EEEEK! Atleast now I know!) and moisturizing was tackled first. Trend Summer Report, Personality Development Talk and Beauty Class were also held. Words that marked on me were "malgeum" which means clean and clear and "anorak" which is coat-like garments. All along I thought "anorak" was a term only used to describe someone who has an avid interest or expertise in something, didn't know it was used in fashion too. I also learned that applying clear nail polishes on accessories has benefit! (Pretty cool huh! Guilty of my limited knowledge on fashion and accessories! :p )

So nice meeting her! Check out her blog! :)

I also saw more fellow bloggers but hadn't got the chance to take photo with them.

*Moi regrets!* Well, maybe next time ayt?!

Hey, I must say that these three in the photo all have wonderful skin (Oh boy! They're flawless!).

There was also two little pretty kiddies who approached me while I was sitting and asked for my number. I heard them saying Dela Cruz something but I hesitated to give my number thinking they were sent by a random guy. Later did it sink in my mind that I met few bloggers and maybe they were their kids, oh my my apologies if that's the case to whoever it is. I'm not a snob, just being careful.

Wanted to go for Day 2 to learn and meet more people but obviously I didn't make it since I woke up late. :p

My First Meet Up with a Co-Beauty Blogger

Last Jan 29, Sunday, I had my first ever meet up with another beauty blogger, Nadj of Ateenadj.

I first discovered her thru twitter. She's from Iligan City but now staying at Quezon City for her exam while I work somewhere in Q.C. so we decided to meet up. We initially decided to meet on Monday but she had a scheduled interview on the same day so moved it earlier. I have no idea on places to go in Q.C. aside from the vicinity where I am working. She initially suggested for SM North but I asked her if it's okay if we meet in Trinoma at 3pm instead, Nadj agreed (yey!) and weeeeee here's the story of our meet up there... :)

I was with my bf, Bryan. We arrived a bit early than 3pm so we decided to eat first, we weren't able to have proper lunch because I woke up late (sorry!). We should have went first to the office then to Trinoma that's why it was sched at 3pm LOL pero dahil ang lola nyo late nagising, straight to trinoma na kami.We had a late lunch at Max's. I wanted to dine in at Conti's but the waiting line was soooo long we couldn't stand it. We went out the store with three slices of Mango Bravo and headed straight to Max's (his fave chicken). Nadj was already en route to Trinoma when I texted her.

When sis Nadj texted me na she's at Max's na, I looked for her around. Ang lola mo nasa labas pala haha, she waved her hand and then yey! sya na nga! :)

Nadj's face was covered by letter S.
 I guess I should have moved a little, there was a lady beside me trying out a lippie kasi. >.<

First few minutes was the typical get-to-know time over the Mango Bravo and ice tea. Sorry Nadj! I didn't know you don't like cakes much pala. I like this kasi kaya I got you din...didn't know talaga! :/

Other food photos are on my personal blog.

Nadj handed me a gift. She texted me the night before our meet up if I like nail polishes and I answered yes. Lahat ng kakikayan taglay ko mga bakla, Chos! Pero seriously, naka red nail polish pa ko ng nagmeet kami haha. Partida nagduduty ako ah, for kikay sake when I have no duty, todo nail polish. If may duty na, hello acetone na ko. She said she doesn't use much nail polish so she gave this to me, so sweet!  Forgot to take a photo of the chocolate I gave her. Thank you dear! :*

After merienda together, we strolled at Landmark to look for the famous Landmark brushes including si JENNY! Hahaha! Nasaan ka Jenny ang drama namin ni Nadj. It was on the lower floor pala, we saw Goody hair accessories and etc. while on our way to escalator. Some chit-chat while walking towards the makeup counters about our common fave gurus. 

Finally we met Jenny and the other Landmark brushes!

I was actually expecting a table like what I saw from Sabrina of MissCoryPotts but anyway, given the fact na antagal ko bago nakapunta kay Jenny, malamang nagaayos din ang Landmark noh?! Sab's post was Sept last year pa. Hahaha!

Here's what Nadj and I saw...

Brush set for P499.75.
It looks nice but it sheds, noh sis Nadj? I checked one face brush e, but we didn't checked on the eye brushes. It's soft too but not dense enough. Pero aminin, nice brush case oh, bongga na sa 5humbers (500) pesos yan friend! Pasok na din sa banga! Medyo carry na for the price.

Eye brushes and nice holder

Face brushes and eye brushes

I was actually eyeing for a soft affordable face brush for my mom but there was no affordable face brush there. The good quality face brush costs like P4h plus. So we end up getting 2 Jenny brushes for the both of us and a very precise eyeliner brush na natripan ko lang.

Here's mine, took some photos after I got home.

We strolled around the Beauty Cosmetics area in Landmark.
My mom asked me to buy Jazzy James Cooper Cream Foundation but it wasn't available in Landmark.
Here are the other stuffs that I got from there.

Maybelline Falsies Mascara P499(which is not available in my area so I grabbed the opportunity), Jocarste Glitter Nail Polish P39 (Fave color syempre!) and Lash Curler Foam for just P14.25

After Landmark we parted ways already.
Thank you so much sis Nadj for the time. It was fun looking around the makeup counters with you! Revlon, ELF, Wet n' Wild, LA Colors, EB, FS, Cinema Secrets, Maybelline, Covergirl, Shawill, PAC and LOLA (first time I saw these last two brands, matagal na ba to or sadyang taga bundok lang ako?LOL) and others. MAC na ayaw kong daanan para walang temptation hahaha! Nagulat ako sa same bday natin, Aries rocks! Thanks for sharing with me your previous meet-ups din. Until next time sis Nadj! Thank you for being nice. I had a great time! We'll keep in touch fooosure! :)
