 Mural Hunting

 

In recent years, Bonifacio Global City or also known as The Fort has experienced robust commercial growth that catches the interests of many people to visit it.

Last May 22-30, 2015, (which I eventually knew at facebook before the last day) One Festival and Bonifacio Art Foundation Inc. (BAFI) brought international artists for a week long mural festival around the city.  It was absolutely awesome and impressive to see the murals at gigantic walls however when we went there on the last day we’re unable to find all the murals because even the guards did not know where it it located. And then, as I went back to the place to buy something since I am already there, a quite amount of perseverance of walking (because it's scattered around the city) came up to me to find all these murals especially the new ones ! And so I did find all! I did a sort of research for the artists and its title to provide more information about it.

DIY Ombre Hair

DIY Ombre Hair

Here's a simple steps on how I did my Ombre Hair. Well, it is important to know first what type of color will fit you just like considering your skin tone so that it won't be obnoxious. I did the basic one which is blonde and unlike what I usually see in our campus most of my schoolmates have ombre hairs where in the clear-cut of hair dye is obvious, I did the gradient one. 

What You Need:

1. Hair dye Brush

2. Bleach & Oxidizing Lotion

3. Aluminum Foil

4. Gloves

5. Toner (optional but I did not use it) 

Make sure to comb your hair and you haven't use any conditioner yet so that it will be more effective. Cut the aluminum foils into pieces to cover each and every section of your hair after applying the bleach. Mix the Bleach and Oxidizing Lotion and make sure to wear gloves to protect your skin. Apply the hair bleach to every section of your hair from the tip. The length of the color depends on you, what I did is about 3 inches. To be able to achieve the transition of hair color, just brush it upward to blend it. Then, randomly apply some bleach from the tip higher than your usual length. Leave it for at least 15 minutes and wash your hair. For some, they apply the toner afterwards to make it more vibrant. Blow dry and so it's done!

Imbued with Nude.

 

                         I would love to paint my face ever since I was young however my father does not allow me because I am still a kid (yes! of course!). I really get excited whenever there are events in school like field demonstrations, theater acts, graduation and other events that my mother would put me some make up on because that was the only time I could wear make up legally. To be honest, the most thing I hate is wearing lipstick because I really get irritated whenever I eat or drink. As I grew up, I am not really fond of putting some make up on anymore because as much as possible my father always remind me that I'm more beautiful if it is natural. In addition, my mother also said that I should not put any chemicals yet and enjoy my youth skin. Whenever we have events in school since high school days I immediately remove my make up and wash my face.

                         There was this time that I asked my sister to borrow some make up because I really don't have one and my eldest sister is really kikay that is why I know she could really help me for our seniors' ball. Well, all of my sisters are, but she is the most kikay and the one that I adore when it comes to being classy. I asked her to teach me what to put on and how it is supposed to be with my skin color. She gave me nude colors for my eye shadow and a bronzer for contouring. After that, I keep on practicing to put some make up on and I really love the nude colors. The first is of course the foundation and concealer for some blemishes. Then, bronzer for contouring depending on the shape of your face. My eyebrows is on its natural shape I only pluck the excess ones so it would look neat and clean. The eye shadow is from the lightest shade then from the edge I picked the darkest shade then followed the outline of my eyes to emphasize its shape and achieve the doll eye look. The lesson I really learned in putting make up on is to blend it properly and know what are the colors that would match together as well as with your skin color. Most importantly I always choose hypoallergenic make ups because I have sensitive skin and don't forget to properly remove your make up and wash your face before you sleep!
