Do you use eye shadow? Do you use those eyelash curling thingamajigs? You probably said “yes” to both questions.

Do you have long eyelashes and have no need to attach false ones? Have you ever wished that there is something like “best eyelash growth enhancer” that will help you have longer and thicker eyelashes like these?

You can play on your eyes to make it look like you have long and thick eyelashes by asking your favorite makeup artist for help.

The use of eyelash curlers and mascara can help. I think. I’m sure there are lots of other eye makeup paraphernalia one can find. Am a noob with makeup.

If in case you don’t have a makeup artist, there are videos in the internet that can teach you how. Go, look for these videos and have those longer and thicker eyelashes that you are looking forward to having.

Nature Republic, Korea’s famous cosmetic store recently opened its third branch in the Philippines when it inaugurated Nature Republic at Ground Floor, Main Building at SM City Fairview last November 11, 2011.

Ms Marjorie Lee and Mr Tad Huang for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Nature Republic SM Fairview store blessing and opening.

The two other stores are the flagship outlet at Festival Supermall in Alabang and Nature Republic SM North EDSA, The Block.

What sets Nature Republic apart from other cosmetic companies is that uses state-of-the-art facilities for their products that use the most natural ingredients for world-class and superior quality products. These are incorporated in different Nature Republic products: Blue Lagoon water from Polynesia; Glacial Water from the Alps; Deep Sea Water from Greenland; Ocean Area Pine Tree from France; Hawaiian Hibiscus; Madagascar Butdelria; Morocco Monoi; gold Caviar; North American Kawai; and other similarly exotic and efficacious extracts and substances

The price range is good because most of the products are affordable starting from PhP60 – Php300. There are pricier products that range from PhP1,000 – PhP2,500 or thereabouts.

Jang Geun Suk (JGS or Sukkie) is Nature Republic’s major endorser. *hears shrieks*

Here are some of the products that can be bought at Nature Republic stores:

Sheets or Facial Masks

Nail Polish

Body Wash

Skin Care for Men

Aloe Vera Gel ( I bought a jar and the kids love it, so does my feet )

Best Seller Items

Lip Colors

One can spend a lot of time (and money too, LOL) inside this store. After the doors were opened to the public, so many people went inside to buy stuff.

I did too! I got several items that I am currently using: Aloe Vera Gel and Cheek/Lip tint

I’ve always admired people who play the piano well. Ahem, the hubby used to play the piano for me. Used to, he can’t find time to play these days, being busy and all that stuff. All he ever ticks are laptop keyboards.

The hubby and I watched Jim Chappell from a different lifetime. We enjoy Yanni’s music, as well as David Benoit’s and maybe a couple more that I can’t remember.

A while ago I was listening (or more like You-Tubing) to a young man play the guitar with exceptional skills, I noticed the name Yiruma beside his videos. They are both Koreans.

Here is a video of Yiruma’s music.

Be prepared to be touched with the emotions that go with the song. It will surely tug your heart strings and open those tear ducts.

I’ve written in this post about Aging Gracefully and now I’m going to “face” these lines with Celeteque Advanced. Yep,we may not admit it but we all are looking for that fountain of youth that will make us stop the aging process, well, at least with how we look since we can’t be living forever.

Anyway, one of my favorite products, Celeteque, has a new line of beauty products: Celeteque Advanced.

Celeteque Anti-Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer (SRP PhP620.00), Celeteque Advanced Anti-Wrinkle Ultra-Hydrating Cleanser (Light Cleansing Oil) (SRP PhP369.00) and Celeteque Advanced Anti-Aging Power Serum Concentrated (SRP PhP 699.00).

Celeteque Anti-Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer is (also) good for sensitive skin because it is fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested and doesn’t clog the pores.

Celeteque Advanced Anti-Wrinkle Ultra-Hydrating Cleanser (Light Cleansing Oil) is good for cleaning the face and removing make-up. It’s dual vitamin regenerating complex increases the skin’s elasticity and moisture content. In just 6 weeks, skin firms up and strengthens while fine lines are reduced.

Celeteque Advanced Anti-Aging Power Serum Concentrated has power serum made up of Cytostimulin Lipopeptides and exotic fruits extracts. These provide strong anti-aging and anti-oxidant properties against DNA damage and smoothens the skin in as early as 1 week of usage.
