Life Updates: White Skin, New Hair Color & Fave Streamers

Hi guys it's the end of the week right here. I am still amazed on how time flies so fast and it's nearing October! Just thought of giving a bit of an update with this post.

New hair color!
I finally got tired of my blonde turned pink locks and I dyed it purple! In case you see entries or blonde hair vlogs then it is definitely something from my backlog haha.

Did a splurge shopping!
I normally just go with what is cheap and affordable but last weekend I cannot help but buy this set of top and shorts. It isn't like I don't have something similar but it just caught my eye somehow. Goodbye to my hard earned cash, this was from Surplus. The top is from Forever21 but I forgot the brand of the shorts.


New line of skincare from Minjun's Philippines: White Skin
Minjun's Philippines is the official distributor of Pax Moly Korean skin care products. Now they made their very first local brand line called White Skin. I ordered my first set as I am real curious on the promised 3 days effect. The skincare line is based mostly on glutathione and collagen.
It's basically a whitening set and it comes with a bleaching soap, toner, serum, cream and lotion. I am praying real hard that hopefully if this is effective they can do some line for anti-acne as well, yes?

Weekend Plans
I will be with my fam this weekend but my dad is sick so I am not sure if we can still go out and celebrate my sister's birthday. And oh, we lost 2 kittens as mentioned by my younger brother. 🙁

I might still do something else on Monday too.

Watch my Fave streamers!
I have also started playing Mobile Legends Bang Bang. I even recorded my 60th day brawl to commemorate but I've decided not to post it. The game really stresses me out so instead of playing I watch game streamers. My favorite is BobongGamer. Do watch his live stream, he can make his audience laugh, that is why his audience is so engage in watching daily even without any skin or diamond give aways.

If you want a pro-player livestream, tips and tricks you may want to try RollerGaming instead.

Overall~ 
That is about it! I really do hope to get more subs in my Youtube by the way but I can't find the time to edit my videos. I got a couple pending now haha. Anyway do share your plans for the weekend, Happy Friday everyone!

Review: Palty Hair Color in Sakura Creamy

Palty color in Sakura Creamy

I cannot count the times I went to Trinoma Landmark to check their available hair colors for Palty. I was never interested in other brands of hair colors before (not until my friend told me that japanese colors leaves you with no brassy strands!) I believe and stand by Hortaleza brands of hair color, never did I experienced of a fail hair color with Hortaleza.

Because Palty is more expensive than my old hair color I felt the need for research. at first I was leaning blonde, because if I can be blonde without the brass that would be soooo cool. No need for hair toners.

In the end I settled for a color that is said to have red undertone. Remember when I colored my hair red? I still have this hidden love for red, auburn blablabla and [insert all red here]. The only reddish hue available is Raspberry Macaroon and Sakura Creamy. I settled for the latter because I was afraid that Raspberry Macaroon will be too much red for work. I was crossing fingers and hoping so bad that Sakura Creamy has enough red for me to love the end result~ @-@

What is it? 
Palty color in Sakura Creamy
Moist and shiny light auburn hair color is sure to turn heads anywhere you might go. Long-wearing and vibrant color treats hair to the superbly hydrating ingredients of camellia oil, silicon and botanical protein, helping hair stay silky soft and protecting color for longer wear. DIY kit is equipped with all the materials needed, including detailed instructions, for a salon-level dye job in the privacy of your own personal space.

Packaging 
The box is very kawaii and girly. However there is not much english on the box but its a good thing their instruction leaflet has english translation.




One box contains below:

1. Conditioner
2. Solution 1 (tube)
3. Solution 2 (bottle)
4. Instruction sheet & gloves
5. Bleach Powder (sachet)
6. Bottle Cap (with brush)

One box is not enough for girls with longer than shoulder length hair so I bought 2 boxes.

Experience 
Because of the instruction leaflet the process was a breeze. Below is the step by step guide on how to use Palty Hair Color.
STEP 1
Squeeze the contents of the #1 solution (tube) into the #2 bottle solution.
There is very faint ammonia smell. I was not bothered by it at all. 


 STEP 2
Shake it off! Shake it off! Ooh~ ooh~ Feeling like Taylor Swift haha.



STEP 3
Change the cap to brush.
My sister who helped me with coloring told me that it will be easy to actually do it alone. The bottle with the brush applicator is really nice. I hope every hair dye brand actually adapts this style.


Then color color color!~
I waited more than an hour before washing it off.

STEP 4
Use the Number 4 special treatment to bring back moisture to your hair.
I like the floral scent but it was not enough for my hair. T_T


This is a color chart from Palty, like I've said I chose Sakura Creamy because I was kinda scared to go for the full red shade as it clearly fitted the pink variant while Sakura Creamy border lined the orange and pink shade.

I left it long like one hour, well I want to make sure it will color my hair. The hair dye penetrated to my black virgin hair but it was not equally distributed especially on hard to reach areas sooo~

Surprise surprise! Brassiness is still present and it brought back my original hair color! Funny enough the reason why I bought it is to change my look yet I didn't realized it was the same shade as light blonde of Mondes. Loooool~



How much and where to buy? 
P369.75 but I got a discount of 10% so its only P332.77 per box

What I love 
  • Its non-drying
  • Faint ammonia smell
  • Roots in perfect color.
  • Easy process because of free bottle with brush applicator
  • Color is true to the box
  • Offers english leaflet!
  • Value for the price
What I don't 
  • I hope one box is enough for long hair :P
  • I still got brassy hair

TIPS:
Make sure to get the help of somebody so make the color even

Will I repurchase? 
Maybe not this shade

Overall~ 
Palty Hair Color in Sakura Creamy is a great color nevertheless, if you like to get an orangey hair that is. Next time I will go for more reddish hue (Rapsberry Macaroon?) I also want to try bubble hair dyes! Yay! <3

After around 3 days here is the color..

Playing with Hair Chalks!


Becoming blonde is still one of my wildest dreams ever since I have loved Kpop. I am still saving up some courage to do that, maybe right after graduation? keke~

Colorful heads is all the rage now, bright colors of pink and blue which looks really lovely. Sadly this fun colors only shows up on light colored hair, in SNSD's Sunny's part: blonde.


Besides hair dyes, there are hair sprays for temporary hair color. I have not tried any colored hair sprays yet but it sure does show up on black hair based on what I've seen. Some of the brands my friends used were from HBC and Watsons.

I just discovered this lately, a temporary color with a fascinating usage process: hair chalks. A hair chalk, from it's name itself is basically a colored chalk intended for hair coloring. The texture is like soft color pastels (the ones used for school projects!) I have seen other girls in youtube use the color pastels from bookstores so I guess it's fine to use the same too. However the ones sold in multiply and facebook are obviously bigger in size so I guess it is cheaper.

What amazes me is the fact that hair chalks, just like hair sprays is working on dark colored hair! On my situation, my hair is black. Another thing to love is the fact that the color is temporary, which means you don't have to always show off rainbow hair when not needed, especially on the streets of Metro Manila *wink*.

Here is what you'll need:
  • Water 
  • Gloves
  • Spray bottle with water
  • Soft Pastels or Hair Chalk (do not choose oil type pastels because it will be sticky)
  • Hair Iron
  • Wear dark colored shirt or of the same shade -the hair chalk you'll be using can transfer to your shirt.
  1. Choose the part of your hair you would like to color. This can be the ends of your hair or different hair sections.
  2. Spray water to the hair, do this part by part to avoid instances of drying the hair even before you can color them with hair chalk.
  3. Take a hair chalk (one color at a time starting with the lightest hair chalk color of your choice) then ran it down to the section of your hair. *TIP: If you have a hard time in coloring your hair evenly try to twist your hair back and forth)
  4. Comb the chalked hair before it dries. Some chalk might also come-off when you comb and your hair will look messy and dry but don't freak out, it's normal.
  5. Use hair iron to style your newly chalked hair. They say this is a process to seal in the color -not true for me, but your hair will look more polished this way.
  6. Use hair spray to make the color last longer then flaunt your newly chalked hair, enjoy! :)
 PROS
  • Temporary way to add fun colors to hair.
  • Cheap but effective hair color on black or dark-colored hair -Awesome!
  • Process of coloring takes short period of time once you get the hang of it.


CONS
  • Messy, chalk can fly anywhere once fully dried and color can transfer on shirts.
  • Drying on hair so make sure to use conditioner afterwards.
  • Not recommended as full head hair color, tried it once on my sister and she said it was not comfortable, use hair sprays instead.

Where to buy?
Online Shops in Facebook, Multiply and Ebay, you can also try colored pastels from bookstores.

Definitely worth the try. It's fun to sport rainbow color hair sometimes
