Sketchbook Entry #1: Dreaming of Sunshine

So my aunt bought me this mixed media sketchbook last year and I decided to use it now since I'm doing an art therapy project wherein I relax by drawing random things I felt like drawing. This one is made by a brand called Monologue and its quite affordable at around P500-600 range.

I have been looking for a cheap mixed media paper for the LONGEST time but its just so hard to acquire! I know that the Canson Mix Media are quite cheap in the US (around $10 or  roughly around PHP 500.00) but you won't believe how much that cost in the Philippines. It costs around PHP1500!! With that money, I could've bought a professional gradepaper instead of a student grade like Canson! I'm not paying ridiculous amount of money for that!

Inflation is crazy here in PH!

Anyways back to the sketchbook, PHP 600.00 may be pricey for most but keep in mind that you are getting a quality sketchbook; its not pro grade but its good enough for the price and for beginners. I bought the one in size A5 which I thought is quite travel friendly and it'll help me draw in a more smaller scale since I tend to draw large drawings. It comes with 48 leaves of 200 gsm acid free Italian paper that is suitable for dry and wet mediums- so basically you'll have at least 96 pages of space to draw! Its not bad for the price!

I'll make a separate review on the sketch book next time for more details!

Life Update + Art

Hey... its been a while.

I know I haven't updated in almost a year and half; I have nothing to say but... college happened. I'm in my 4th year of studying Architecture in UST and suffice to say that its been keeping me busy.

Its quite surprising how it seems like only yesterday I was updating about my first day of college and here I am writing about me and my mid-college crisis.

Jazzy Collection Kiss Proof Lip Gloss

One of my first ever Jazzy Collection product- the Kiss Proof Lipgloss!

This was actually a brand recommended to me by my dear friend, Loui. For those who don't recognise this brand; Jazzy Collection, used to called as James Cooper, is a Philippine based makeup brand that provides high quality makeup for an affordable price. 

Maybelline Color Sensational Vivid Matte Liquid Lip Color

So this is the free product that I chose when I bought the Maybelline Color Sensational So Nude during Maybelline's Buy 1, Take 1 sale- the Maybelline Color Sensational Vivid Matte Liquid Lip Color!

I was pretty excited with this product since my Queen CL is endorsing Maybelline Korea and she was wearing this in Daring Red and she looks absolutely gorgeous!

Maybelline Color Sensational So Nude

Another thing thatI bought during Maybelline's Buy 1, Take 1 sale aside from the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation is the Maybelline Color Sensational So Nude Lipstick.

Maybelline's Color Sensational Lipstick line is basically consisted of nudes; ranging from pink-nudes to brown-nudes; so it has a pretty huge selection of shades but there not much variety since most of the shades look a lot like each other- which is understandable as it is supposed to be Nudes only line.

Maybelline Color Sensational Lip Color

This was the free lipstick from Maybelline that I mentioned in my previous post; it was during their Buy 1, Take 1 of a product of your choice.
