I just slept and all of a sudden it’s
JUNE? What!?! What happened to MAY? Don’t you sometimes think that time just
flies oh-so-fast you get so left behind? NO? Really? Just me? Oh yeah! Because
I’m the only one here who’s always late in the game--- ahahaha (awkwardly
exiting the scene).
BYS brow gel
[REVIEW] NYX TAME & FRAME TINTED BROW POMADE (CHOCOLATE) VS. BYS BROW GEL (BOLD BRUNETTE)
If you have seen my 4 Easy Eyebrow Routines, you’d see there that someone requested if I could review NYX Tame & Frame Brow Pomade. I got the same request from another viewer on my BYS Brow Gel First Impression Review.
So as a treat, instead of just reviewing the
NYX’s brow pomade, I decided to simply make a comparative review of the two! In this battle of brow pomades, my goal is to
know which of these two amazing products will be more worth-buying considering
they’re both pigmented, budge-proof and long lasting.
P.S. Don't forget to turn on CC for English subtitles.

Hello!
How's your weekend? Today, I wanna share another #musicmonday
episode! It's one of those songs I learned (actually-- still trying to
learn-- LOL) to play on the guitar when I was younger and seemed to be the
only song I could finish singing with a guitar back then. LOL. Needless to say,
this song is kinda nostalgic for me. Brings back good childhood memories. My
gosh I'm old!
Again, this is not to showcase any skill whatsoever but just to
share a "musicmonday" vibe with you all! So without further
yapping, here it is!
Today, I’ll be sharing with you my review of BYS BROW GEL in the
shade: 01 Bold Brunette. If you’re a subscriber to my YouTube Channel, you’d
know that I’ve already uploaded a First Impression Demo & Review of this
brow product last year but now, I want to give you my in-depth review as I have
used it for several months already.
THE BASICS: ABOUT THE PRODUCT
Product Name: BYS BROW GEL
Shade: 01 BOLD BRUNETTE
Price: PHP 399.00
Bought From: SM DEPARTMENT STORE
The clear glass-like plastic pot contains 2grams of brow product. They
carry 4 shades namely: 01 Bold Brunette, 02 Natural Brown, 03 A Blonde’s
Bestfriend, and 04 Knock Out Black. Although I bought mine from SM Department Store, you can also purchase this product online. If you're from the Philippines and you just want to get it online, it is also available on Zalora website.
Hep! Before you
scold me for not being around this side of the interweb for a while (peace
sign), I have a product review for you. Ah-huh. Yep! A brand new product
review, so save that guilt-trippin for later and let’s talk about my experience
with NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST WATER GEL first. *wink-wink*
WHY DID I
PURCHASE?
I actually
uploaded a haul video last week explaining why I bought this product but
okay, let me talk about that here, too. I recently have just finished my
Himalaya Herbals Intensive Moisturizing Cream and thought of trying a different moisturizer instead of
repurchasing the same thing, although I have to say that I parted with my
Himalaya moisturizer on really good terms. So since it’s time to hit the
supermarket to buy groceries, I decided to also look for a new face cream there
since GIANT also has an aisle dedicated for face and body stuff. And that’s
where I saw this blue box that says NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST WATER GEL. And I was
like, “Water gel? As in water? And gel? Oooh! That sounds fancy.” And so
I took it and placed it in my basket.
Welcome
to another episode of #musicmonday where I share with y’all whatever music I'm into on a Monday! And today it is Bruno Mars’ Versace On The Floor. I know, I know! Yes, this
is probably like “so yesterday” to
some (or most) of you but I really have a thing for being late in the game,
y’know? So yeah, I only really dived into this song just about…ahm.. now? And
yes, I am fully aware of what the song is about. C’mon! I'm old, okay? I know some say “it’s a dirty
song” while some say, “it’s actually pretty romantic”. There are even others who say,
“it’s really the tune that we like.” Well I say, “Whatevah! This is my current jam so
immona give it a whip even if I don’t really know how to sing and play the
guitar.” LOL.
By the way, I kinda modified the lyrics a bit to fit what I have in mind because y'know, I'm actually a girl. Ah-huh, that's right. So here you go!
As with most of our travels and other staycations, the last day is always the saddest because it means “relaxation is over, the real world is now calling!”
So
here is the last installment of my Village Hotel Changi Vlogs. You can check
out my full review of the hotel for more information and photos.

Where
was your last staycation? I would love to know!
