Cover Girl Outlast All day Lip Color

Just a short, surprising discovery. 

I was practicing on make up for my cousin's wedding day, when I found the CG lip color that I bought from a friend a few months back.  At that time I was super disappointed because although the lip color promised 16 hours of long wear, it seemed that I wasn't through half of my 8 hour office shift, and the lip color would be cracking and be gone by the time I applied the second or third moisturizing stick. 

So i tried it again earlier just to test it once more, although I already knew what the results were. After I putit on, I had to admire the way the color stayed on my lips, and sat there for a few minutes pondering my look. 

The yaya came home and I was embarrassed to be found all made up, so I quickly scrubbed my eye make up off, and, accidentally throwing the cotton ball with oil away, attempted to scrub off the lip color from my lips with some tissue. I wasn't given time to be really irritated because the lip color didn't seem to crack or rub off on the tissue, but I ignored it, and played a movie for the family to watch. That was around 3 in the afternoon.  It is now 9:30 pm. I have had dinner, and after I licked my lips, I realized that there was some stiff stuff on it, probably the left over lip color. I was sure by then it had already rubbed off mostly. I look in the mirror and lo and behold. The lip color was still there.

Pretty surprising really. It made me think back to the times I would use it and it would crack. But what I did realize was that I did not use any moisturizing anything on my lips. Maybe that's why it stayed on.

It is truly, truly long lasting. I'm going to sleep on it, see how it goes! ;)

The Real Challenges in Life

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Cynthia Maipid < cmaipid@gmail.com > Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2012 18:30:33 +0800 Subject: The Real Challenges in Life To: cmaipi.ondgo@blogspot.com I learned in a retreat that I attended that the Christian Life is not a life of fun and games. It is not a bed of roses. It is a battlefield. Man, is that ever true. This I know. I am currently encountering several battles. The biggest right now is my husband. My husband is Christian. He is what you call a backslider. See, I'm Catholic. I don't know what approach to take in helping get back to God. But I was told that prayers work wonders. I haven't been praying properly, I admit. And now is the time that I must learn to do that. I am afraid of that the time will come that my husband and my daughters will not be saved. And so I need to pray for them. I vowed to attend church every sunday and even that is becoming a struggle. I must think of a new way to fix my schedule in such a way ...

Talk About a Million Stress

It's so tiring what they're doing to us. The company offered to let most of the agents go on the promise of paying them a voluntary retirement package.  That's all nice for the agents because whether they take it or not, they will still receive it when the company says they can go. But for the team leads, it's a different story. To begin with, only 8 team leads can avail of the package.  Anyone else who wants to go can go by resigning.  It's so painful because they dropped the bomb on us by saying that whoever wants to avail of the package may avail of the package, and they're not going to limit it just because we've gone over the required number of people. The next day, they tell us, no we can't let everyone go. We can only afford to make 8 stay.  Well, right now, I'm the eighth. And the more painful part? Someone who needs it more than I do ( i need it, too, and she needs it just as much, if not more)  won't be able to get it. Tal...

Because I Can

Well, yes, I'm not blogging because I have something to say, actually I'm just blogging because I can do so. Anyway, I got up today pretty hungry. Considering we had lunch at Tramway. The food was awesome, but I was able to have only 2 courses. Next time I go, I'm going to make sure I get a dose of everything! Oh, and I'll be wearing a big shirt! You know, for emergency purposes. I'm still pretty sleepy right now but Tyrese woke me up, saying that she was hungry. So I had to go and cook some rice. Which by the way I realized that she did not wake me up for food originally. She woke me up because she pooped. well, i'm just waiting for the rice to cook so I can eat cause I'm hungry, too.
