Ferrero Rocher Instant Lipstick Holder

Hey Pretty Bellas

    Miss Bee here and I am back for another blog. I am not going to do a tutorial or product review about Ferrero Rocher. I'm sure you all know what Ferrero Rocher is so I'm gonna skip an intro for that.


I am sure most of you ladies got a box of this chocolate and I am pretty sure most of you didn't throw that little container away because it has a sentimental value. It's either you kept the love letters your bf gave you in it or just simply keep it somewhere because you think that you can use it for something.. Well Bellas, it's time for you to take it out from your storage box and put it on your vanity corner!

I had this idea while eating the chocolate. I was eating them and I suddenly look at my poor lipstick holder. And then it hit me. Why not make this Ferrero Rocher container as my lippies holder? I tried to put one lipstick on and VOILA! Pefect! I can't wait till I finish all the chocolates up.

So here are the photos of my new lipstick holder. It's nothing fancy...I didn't even put any design on it but you know you can always do that if you want to. It's just that, I like it better that way. Simple but very useful.







I used the lid for my potted individual eye shadows and brow powder. 



As you can see, that little something you value that's been sitting around in your storage box can be very useful. You can store anything you want it this clear container depending on your needs. Just be creative! 


I hope you find this blog helpful. Thank you for reading and I'll talk to you on my next blog! Stay Fabulous!

DIY Iced Green Tea Eye Pads- Bid Puffy Eyes Goodbye!

Hello Everyone,

     Have you ever suffered from swollen eyes due to lack of sleep, astigmatism or from crying yourself to sleep last night because you broke up with your bf/gf? swollen eyes can make us look tired even after sleeping for 8hrs.You can also get puffy eyes by drinking water too much before going to bed. Although you can get a lot of good health benefits by drinking a lot of water everyday, drinking water before bed will cause your eyes to swell. That's because the water will not be eliminated from your body when you sleep.

    Anyway, I've suffered from this too many times before so I tried to look for some ways on how to reduce this or totally get rid of the annoying puffy eyes.I swear by Purederm Puffy Eyes Minimizing Patche.  It  will totally get rid of your eye bags in just one night. But this is too expensive to use on a daily basis plus it will only minimize the under eye bags. Sometimes, when you suffer from astigmatism, you tend to get swollen eyes in the morning as if you just got bitten by some insects or sometimes when you cry yourself to sleep your lids tend to become puffy as well.

   While I was enjoying my cup of green tea, I thought that maybe I can make my own eye pads using this. Green tea has a lot of health benefits. Is there any other food or drink reported as many benefits as green tea? There are a lot of medicinal benefits that you can get from green tea from headache to depression. It is also reputed to be helpful to some illnesses such as cancer, high cholesterol level, infection, etc.

 So enough of the blah blah blah and let's get started!

What You'll Need:
1 green tea bag
1 cup hot water
cotton pads
ziplock or any plastic container



1. Put the tea bag onto the cup of water. The let it cool down a little bit.
2. Once the tea is warm, you can start to dip each cotton pad into it.
3. Put the dipped cotton pads in a ziploc or plastic container but make sure not to layer them.
4. Let it totally cool down then put it in a fridge and there you have it!

        You can make as many pads as you can. This will save you time and energy :)
this can only fit 4 but I still put 6..





REMINDER: dont pile them up because it will be so hard to tore them apart... LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE :(



so this happens when you pile them up..

You can start to use it the next day. Thaw it out first before you place it on your eyes. Go ahead and wash your face first or take a shower. It will be ready by the time you done. These eye pads have soothing effect and can help your blood to circulate better.



           
           For best result, use this every morning right after you wash your face. This will take 10minutes of your daily morning routine but it sure pays. :) You will bid puffy eyes in no time!!! You can also put these pads all over your face at night. You face needs some green tea lovin' too so go ahead and use it as face mask.

Other things I do with green tea:
  I use it to rinse my face at night. So once you wash you face with a cleanser, rinse it with warm green tea.
  When steaming my face, I dont just use hot water. I add some green tea into it. You dont have to use new tea bag all the time. When I drink tea, I keep the tea bag so I can use it for my facial steam. (tutorial coming up next...)


       I hope you enjoy my DIY tutorial and for more updates, please visit my FB page and twitter and dont forget to subscribe to my YT channel too! This is all for now ladies and I'll talk to you on my next blog!

DIY Body/Face/Lip Scrub

Hey Everyone,

     Tonight as I was doing my other blog,I thought of writing a tutorial on how to do a body scrub. This is all naturals and you can definitely find the ingredients in your own kitchen. Yup! You heard it right...In your kitchen or as I call it my extended vanity corner. LOL :) I get some of my beauty remedies from my kitchen. One of the products I swear by is honey so I am going to tell you how to make a scrub that will work best on your face body and including your lips.

   So here's what you'll need: honey, sugar, olive oil (optional)

      Before we get started, let me just give you an introduction about the health benefits of these ingredients.

Honey: It's definitely one of the best product you can use on your skin. Honey is 100% natural so it is safe to use on your skin. It has a lot of good benefits not only for the skin but for your health in general. It has the ability to absorb and retain moisture on your skin. This will help you to have a silky smooth skin.Believe me, I saw the big difference on my skin ever since I started using honey as one of my beauty remedies.






Sugar: It can exfoliate your skin and deep cleanse it. It can also hydrate your skin without clogging your pores. This can help your skin to glow as well. There are so many benefits that you can get for using sugar as your over all body scrub.







 These two ingredients alone can do wonders on your skin but if your skin is super dry, you may want to add a little bit of olive oil for extra moisture. If you dont have olive oil, you can try to use baby oil or even the home made coconut oil. The one that we get when we make "latik" out of coconut milk. It is also good but the smell for me is not very pleasing. Anyway, I cannot stress it more PLEASE DONT USE COOKING OIL. :) LOL

 Anyway, let's get started. Here's what you need to do:

- You'll need at least 3 tablespoon of white sugar if you're planning to use this as an over all scrub.
-Add 2 tablespoon of honey and then mix well and there you have your all naturals body scrub.

You may want to lessen the ingredients when you're not planning to use it all over your body. I like to chill this scrub first before I use it because it's more refreshing. And just like what I said earlier, you can add olive oil if you want. Try to exfoliate your skin at least 2x and you'll see the result in just a week. :)

  This is all for now and I do hope you like my very first DIY beauty remedy tutorial. Watch out for more tutorials soon. Thank you for reading and have a good one :) Stay Fabulous

Bee's Mini Haul / Movie Review



Hey there Fabulous Ladies,

        Today I went to see a movie with a friend. So before I tell what I got today in the mall. Lemme tell you my thoughts about the movie "Manila Kingpin". I am not a movie critic and this is the first time that I am actually going to write something about a movie."Manila Kingpin" was a great movie. The story was great and this is actually the first time that I appreciated a Filipino action movie. The only problem I saw in this movie was the actor who portrayed as "Asiong Salonga". I dont know with you guys but for me, he didn't give justice to the character. My friends and I agreed on this part. He said that Asiong died when he was 23 and may I quote he said it's a "Trivia". Anyway, Asiong was in early 20's when he died while Jorge Estregan Jr., didn't look that young. Maybe when he did this movie when he was younger, he probably gave it more justice. There were a lot of scenes that looked really weird to me. Like the kissing scenes between Asiong and 3 of her women (all of them are young acrtresses). Those scene gave us the "eeewwww" factor. I know I am mean but that's just how I felt about the movie. The Kalesa chase was something I've never seen before but.....seriously??? A Kalesa chase where all the people riding were dead but the horse was left unharmed??? Anyway, I still enjoyed the movie and I really recommend you guys to see it. I wish they will make more movies like that in the future but please..... choose better actors...I know they are veteran actors but please..choose someone that will be please in  the viewers' eyes.LOL..^__^   and please dont make it BLACK and WHITE.

    Alright, enough of the movie review. I went to SM Department store with my friend so I thought I'd pick up some of the things I need for the beauty academy. So here they are..

       First thing I got was this Fanny Serrano concealer stick in chestnut. I asked the saleslady if it's a foundation stick and she said yes. I know it's my bad that I didn't read the label first when she gave me the box. Anyway, I will still keep this and add to my collection. One thing I can say about this product is it smells like men's cologne. Price: Php350


      Next, this E.L.F. product automatically caught my eyes because of the packaging. It really looks nice. I didn't know that it's a face primer. I haven't really tried to use any face primers before but I will do a review about this product once I used it. Price:Php 399


     Last but not the least is this e.l.f. studio blush brush. This is probably my first blush brush ever. I use different brushes when putting on my blush. Being in the academy, makes me want to have the proper brushes for applying make up. It's gonna cost me a lot but I am sure it pays off in the end. Price:Php 249


  So that's it for now pretty ladies. I do hope you like reading my blog. I wish I can write more but I have to get back to work. I'll talk to you guys next time and Stay Fabulous!
