How Do You Take Care of Your Feet?

I noticed that the soles of my feet weren't as soft as they were before.
I am now taking more time to care for my feet and I'm currently using the products seen above.
I'm not really into getting a foot spa done at a salon so I usually just do it myself at home.
I was wondering if anyone out there could kindly suggest better foot care products since the ones I'm using now doesn't seem to be doing a good job.
Thanks. ^_^

Inside My Bag...

I've been trying to organize my bag but I just can't seem to do it.
I always have things just sprawled inside which is why it takes time for me to find things in there. ^_^
Anyway, thought I'd share the contents of my bag with you.

Shopping in Baclaran

My friend Angel and I were so excited about our team outing so we decided to do some shopping for our trip.
And what better place to hunt for bargains than Baclaran?
We went to her boyfriend's (Alex) house first which is conveniently located at Baclaran ^_^, ate breakfast and then we were on our way. My inner kikay was acting out again.

We wanted to buy the ff:
-A bikini (for Angel) and a tankini (for me)
-Shorts (for Angel and Alex)
-Summer dresses (for me)
-A big hat (for me)

We walked around for about 3 hours and although it was tiring, just the thought that I was surrounded by beautiful clothes made me happy.
We also found out that items are waaay cheaper if you buy them near the LRT station.
They have different prices for wholesale and retail.
For example, there's this really cute bikini that retailed for 650 pesos but if you but it as wholesale (minimum of 6) the price drops to 350.
We decided to come back again and take advantage of the wholesale prices. ^_^

I spent a total of 1,000 and was able to but the ff (take note, I didn't make tawad):
-2 summer dresses (midcalf) for 150 pesos each
-a maxi dress for 200
-2 tankinis (which I found out later didn't fit me) for 200 each
-2 huge hats for 75 pesos each

Angel and Alex bought:
-4 shorts at 40 pesos each
-a bikini for Angel for only 100 pesos
-a cool necklace for angel for 100 pesos
-a sleeveless top for only 75 pesos

So although the tankinis didn't fit me, I was still happy because I really enjoyed the experience and I just loved looking through all those clothes and eyeing the shoes. I might spend a fortune the next time I go there. But next time I'll make sure that I buy only the things that will fit me. ^_^

Review:Ellana Mineral Liquid Lip Color

I just ordered Ellana's Mineral Liquid Lip Color in the color stunning.
It was in the twist tube container and cost me only 120php.
Here's a quick review of the item...

Pros:
-It's very affordable (120php)
-It's available in different pretty colors (check out their website)
-It's a Philippine product
-Has a cool minty flavor
-A little goes a long way

Cons:
-I found the twist tube container a bit irritating. I twisted for about a minute before some color came out.
-It's heavily tinted so first time users would have to practice first just to get the right shade/look
-I found it too thick for my liking. It was more difficult to apply than other liquid lip colors.

Would I buy again? Yes. Ellana's Mineral Liquid Lip Color is well worth the money.
I suggest that you get multiple items to save on shipping. They have so many kikay items that you're sure to buy more than one make-up type. ^_^

Review:Striptease Waxing Kit

I was really curious about this particular item because I read good reviews regarding it on my favorite forum site. My Kikay side wanted to be unleashed again.
I also wanted to achieve the "shiny sexy legs" that my boyfriend likes so much so I decided to buy the product.
I purchased the Striptease sampler size of 150g for 160php thru Ebay.
I was really excited to try it out and the first thing that I noticed was it's scent.
It smelled sweet.
I was tempted to eat it about 2-3 times.
So how was it?
Well, I only tried waxing once and it was w/ this ready to use strip that you just stick to your legs so I didn't have much experience with waxing.
It was quite tiring.
You had to work on one small area at a time.
The wax was really thick and I found it hard to apply because it just won't stick to my skin.
Oh and I broke the wooden applicator but it's still usable.
Putting those cons aside, I still liked using Striptease.
It was cheap and it was fun once you get the hang of it.
And it's really good for getting rid of those stupid hairs.
I only regret that I didn't order extra cloth.
The 160g was enough to wax only both of my calves.
But I would be ordering the largest size next time.
Hurrah for hair-free legs!
