EASY DIY: BRUSH CLEANER

Hi everyone!!

How often oo you wash your makeup brushes? Is it not a pain or do you enjoy it? I wash mine about once every two weeks or once a month,maybe..hahaa..I am too lazy, I know.hihhi... I do spray them with 70% alcohol and wipe them off in a clean towel or wet wipes every after I use them. But then of course, washing them thoroughly is still important to keep them clean from bacteria and other stuff. I saw a video on Youtube on how to make a DIY brush cleaner similar to the Sigma brush gloves but way cheaper. I have been using it for a few month and I am quite happy because it made cleaning my brushes way faster and I get to remove more product. At first, I wanted to make a video on it but it did not turn out well so I'm doing a blog post instead. Here it goes:

What you need:

After this,it is pretty self explanatory.

tips:
-Make sure that you make different sized "dots"with your glue so that you can clean different types of brushes.
-Make the spacing close enough so that it can really take off the grime and other products from your brushes.

By the way, I use baby shampoo to clean my brushes.

So that's it!Pretty simple right? I assure you that using them makes cleaning your brushes super easy!

Here is the video that I saw in Youtube:

Casual BlacknWhite OOTD

Hi everyone!!

I am not into fashion but I would like to share this outfit that I wore to my friend's nephew's baptism. It was so hot at the time that I decided to wear a skirt and a blouse instead. I could not find a colorful blouse so I wore a black one instead. In the end, I looked like attending a funeral rather than a baptism. Oh well... this will do..!

It was super hot so I decided to go for a minimal makeup look. :)

Rings:

Large Green stone: Market Market

Gold band with diamonds: from my BF :)

Hairclip: 

Random store in Baclaran

The blouse has a slit on the sleeves which I think made me look more of a boxer. Hihihi!

The shirt is kinda loose and looks "formal" so I decided to dress it down with a striped skirt and wedges.

1. Using a glue gun, heat it up and apply an ample amount on the top of your headband.

DIY: EASY AND AFFORDABLE STUD EARRING AND RINGS HOLDER

Hello everyone!! I'm here to share an easy DIY project that will not only fit your budget but will also help you organize your stud earrings and rings collection.

What you need:

Old newspapers or magazines

Scissors

empty box ( any empty box that you have)

Ruler

Fabric

Pen/Marker

Adhesive ( scotch tape)

Optional: decorative material

1. Measure the space inside the box from one side to another. Do not include the "walls" of the box when you measure. Also measure from the bottom part of the box up to how tall you want your earring/ring holder will be.

2. Measure and cut your paper/old magazine. Make sure to make it slightly smaller than box (about .5cm will do) or else it will be too big once you fold it and will not fit the box anymore. 

*In the video, the box is 15.5cm and I cut the paper into 15cm .

3. Fold the paper according to height of your earring/ring holder. Make sure to secure the sides of your folded paper.

4. Make as many as you want. The more folded paper you place inside your box, the tighter it will be.

5. For the fabric, make sure that both sides are cut straight. The width of you the cloth should be the same as the space between the sides of the box. 

6. Place the fabric on top of your folded newspaper/magazine and using a card/scissors, tuck in the fabric  between each of the folded paper until you have covered all of them.

7. Now, you can put your rings.

8. This is optional but you can decorate your box however you want.
