Want to Win a Beach Getaway for 2 from Dove?



Summer is just a few more months away and I bet beach bums out there are already preparing to get that beach-ready skin and body. We have a beach getaway planned this January but since I have a new baby, I've been very busy with a lot of things that sometimes I admit neglecting what used to be my priority: beauty! haha.

Aside from my weight, I most conscious of my underarm. I've been a Dove deo user for years now and I know it really delivers skin caring benefits and it improved the appearance of my underarms. So I attended their event to know more of what they're offering right now.



We were given a personalized bag tag before the event started. I looks really neat.



Patty Laurel hosted the event



It was held at Toby's Estate in Makati. I enjoyed the food and chatting with my fellow bloggers. I wish I tried their coffee though.




So here's how to join:

Simply purchase the Dove Deo box like the one in this photo:


It is available in major supermarkets and retail stores nationwide for the price of your regular Dove roll-on (P89 for Dove Original, and P95 for Dove Ultimate White and Dove Powder Soft).

Makeup for Chinita



I've been doing the hair and makeup of Ms. Josephine and her lovely daughters for I think three years now. The last time I did their makeup, Ms. Jo said they were offered to have their makeup done somewhere else by one of their relatives but her daughters told her..."si Ms. Kim na lang". She told me "Nakalakihan ka na ng mga anak ko". Yeah I know I'm getting older...but I feel very honored. That's why I love this job so much. Anyways, thought I share the photos of my latest makeup for them here as they are the perfect chinita models.





Makeup by: Kim Rodriguez
Hair by: Marvy Jimenez

When doing makeup for chinita, I focus more on the eyes. In my experience, a subtle extended neutral smokey eye makeup enhances chinita eyes and of course do not forget the falsies! Also do not forget to use a trusted smudgeproof eyeliner. I used Maybelline waterproof gel eyeliner in brown for the upper line and NARS eyeliner pencil in brown for the lower (this is just the best!).

Makeup for a Little Girl



I've done makeup for Ms. Joanna a number times already for their office events. But recently she asked me to do the hair and makeup of her daughter for her 7th birthday.


Fresh makeup never fails. It always make her look younger and prettier.



I also did very light makeup for her daughter. Oh I love working with little girls especially this one. She knows what she wants and very kikay. She knows how to obey when I say look down or don't move please haha. Because her theme is princess she wants everything pink for her makeup. I used RCMA cream foundation on her face set with Shu Eumura loose powder (very lightly), a little bit of brow color, cream pink eyeshadow (Maybelline Color Tattoo Eyeshadow to be exact) set with a pink Urban Decay powder eyeshadow, mascara, Shiseido blush and for her lipstick I chose a very long lasting one because you know how kids tend to eat their lipsticks (I used Stila liquid lipstick on her).


According to her mom, she's the one who chose the details of her gown. Oh I can't wait for Lana to turn 7...it scares me too hahaha!





The mom and daughter are so pretty. Thank you so much Ms. Jo for always trusting me.
