It's been a while since I've posted and I finally have a new makeup review to break this stagnant blogging ice. I'll be reviewing this Colour Collection lipstick in Kissmark from sampleroom.ph , a try before you buy site that offers deluxe and full-sized samples bought using points directly from their site.

| Colour Collection matte lipstick in Kissmark |
This has been in my collection for months or actually a year now I think? And this review is long overdue.
Hello loves! Have you used any social apps and later become completely obsessed with it? Instagram did it for me. So if you want to follow for quick reviews, first-impressions, new finds and updates here's my handle, let's chat! http://instagram.com/manilawithlove
One thing that I really like about the beauty community on instagram is how everyone is so helpful and really fun to chat with! I've actually made a few instagram friends! So if you're as obsessed with instagram as I am (I don't post as often but I do use it a LOT) follow me over there!

Despite the gloomy and (thankfully) cool weather when we all just want to lie down motionlessly on our comfy beds with our hands under the cool side of the pillow (who else does this?) I'm pulling up my sleeves and getting my blogging-chops back on high-gear because I have a new review! This time on a very delicious-smelling scrub Melanie sent me from Jarful of goodness. Read on to see what I think.
Something came in the mail! or at my doorstep rather ( I wish we had a mailbox ), a couple of products from JLC Miller . These are available in most supermarkets and drugstores.
They really hooked a girl up! Thanks JLC Miller and to Mikee!
I probably won't be exploring the face products because as you know, ( if you've been reading my blog for a while now ) my face isn't exactly the most tolerant to certain mass produced and chemically-induced facial care. All I need is one little slip and poof I become coco crunch.
CONTENTS
For the Gluta line I'm currently using the whitening lotion ( for my arms, because I forget to use sunblock. Because they're too sticky for day-time heat. Wouldn't really mind if I was on the beach though ), soap and the deodorant. So far so good, but no evident changes yet as far as I can tell. My skin doesn't dry-out on the soap so that's very good. The smell is quite...not suited for mass appeal. I find it smells a bit like it has citronella in it. So I think of bug-off lotions whenever I lather on the lotion, smell the soap and use the deodorant. A+ for consistency though(?) Lol
And the shampoo and conditioner from the PreGroe line hasn't made my hair fall off yet so that's also good. I kid.
Which product do you think I should review first?
PS. Why would you use a face powder that can pass off as a blush? Please enlighten me.
PPS. I hope the body lotion works. I already have sun spots on my wrists.
PPPS. It's already JULY. What? WHAT? How is this possible? It's the middle of the year already. Just let that sink in for a bit.
