Popsockets Phone Stand and Grip from Georgina Sasha

I learned about the popsockets from my colleague. I was intrigued and she showed me how to used it. Then, I realized I want one!!! Hahaha So I searched a lot of online shops and the one who has the best offer was from Georgina Sasha site. Looks legit than the others.

I bought three popsockets. The donut design was supposedly for my sister but I realized my mom need it the most. Haha She has a new phone back then and a little bigger for her hands. The good vibes design was for my hubby.

Look at those unicorn stickers! Cuteness!

Here is mine. The Galaxy design. I immediately decided to try it in my phone.

Now, my phone is easy to grip.

Lalalalalove.

The Verdict:

For Georgina Sasha - even though it was my first time to a have a transaction with this site. It can be trusted. I made my research first before buying (as always). The site has a lot of good reviews. Easy and fast transaction it was. After the confirmation of the payment, the items we ordered were received within the week. Woot! The quality of the products were in good condition. The unicorn stickers they included added smile in my face. I love unicorns. Haha My new obsession. We also got free shipping because we reached more than 1000 Php.

For Popsockets - it was easy to use. Just stick it in your phone where you feel most comfortable with it. For me, the best place will be the lower middle of the phone. I have been using it for months now and it is still here in my phone case. I can’t live without it now. Hahaha it helps me grip my phone or it can be used as a stand if you will be showing or watching a video in your phone. It can be transferred too easily. If you think it has less stickiness, just dab some water in the sticky part. Then, viola! It will have a strong hold again like the last time you tried it.

Overall I will give both of them

★★★★★

5 stars out of 5 stars.

In movie, review

Seven Sundays (2017)

(photo credit)

I was intrigued to watched Seven Sundays so I invited my mom, my sister and my hubby. It was a story about a family, whose father was diagnosed with lung cancer. They decided to spend the remaining seven Sundays together with their father. They promise to dedicate every Sundays with their family.

The Verdict:

Spoiler alert!!!!

The story started with their tatay’s (Ronaldo Valdez) birthday while all of his children (Aga Muhlach, Dingdong Dantes, Cristine Reyes and Enrique Gil) were busy with their own lives. They can’t be there with their father's birthday celebration. Then, on the end of the day, his doctor visited him with the bad news. He has more or less 2 months to live. That’s how the story revolved. I will not go on with every details.

My two cents, it was a really tear jerker movie. I have soft spot in my heart whenever a movie is about death or family. Everyone can relate especially to the people who lost a parent, with siblings or to the kids of OFWs. Grabe! Iyak ako besh (maybe it was because of my hormones din :D ) Cathy Garcia-Molino did a great job as always. There was a part in the movie na sunod sunod yung nakakaiyak. Haha For me, every one of them were good. But the one who stand out for me will be Ronaldo Valdez and Dingdong Dantes. If they were the one who will release those emoterong lines. Ay! Sure na besh, pak ang luha. :))

Some of the things I noticed are: They have a bitin na ending. Some of the problems they encountered where unsolved or they haven’t show some resolution towards the end. For example, Baby D’s (Enrique Gil) problem. He will be sued by Dingdong’s Boss. So what will happen to them? Next will be, will they continue to meet up every Sunday? What else? Hmmm.. Will KSP will continue to open? Lastly, I hope they added a scene where their father or Aga Muhlach tried to explain how he knew about his dad’s secret. It is just a few thoughts.

The story has some very important message to everyone. The movie will help us realize to always have a communication with your family or to visit them especially your parents even they have done something wrong to you in the present or in the past. They will always be your parents and family. Be open to your family with your problems, they will always have your backs. They will be the first person to help you. Finally, it is not too late to change things, to forgive and to bond with your family.

Overall the movie was great.

★★★★✫

I will rate this movie as 4.5 out of 5 stars.

In hair, hairstyle

Wedding 101: Hair by Axel Alferez

Hair and makeup go hand in hand especially during one of our special events in life like our wedding day, right? For me that’s why you need to splurge a little with both of them. Well most of the time, makeup artist have their own hairstylist. Package sila. Best example will be Ate Bunny and Axel Alferez. No need to find a hairstylist by your own. Most of the time, your makeup artist got your back. Haha ;)

Before meeting up with your glam team, make sure to save some photos of your pegs for the special day or for your pre-nup shoot. Tell them in advance, if you will have a few accessories you want to corporate in your hair during the day. It will be so much fun preparing and planning everything and ask them some suggestions too, if the look you are trying to copy will look good on you.

During our pre-nup shoot, you can CHECK IT HERE

This up do was during our pre-nup shoot again. CLICK IT HERE to view the final product.

Up do with my crown from my tita in UAE, thank you for sponsoring!

Curly hair for our preparation shoot

Front view - excuse my chubby fez hahaha

Up close photo for my up do.. super nice!

After the mass, we have a touch up. I gave Axel my hair extensions. I thought it will not be used because my hair color was a little different from the one I bought. However, it blended nicely. Super loved it. She made it werk. I bought my hair extensions in divisoria for only 200 Php. That's why, so I am so happy I was able to used it. Hindi nasayang ang pagiinarte ko hahahaha

Groupie with my glam team! (Ate Bunny, me and Axel)

Gulat mode.

The Verdict:

My hairstylist during my pre-nup shoot and wedding was Axel Alferez. She was with Ate Bunny (the pretty makeup artist haha). Both of them were easy to work with, fun and very kind. They really assisted me, all throughout.

Axel executed my instructions very well. I grabbed some photos from Pinterest and showed it to her. Ayun. She did her thing and the results were amazing. I really love my hair during our wedding day plus with the extensions she added before the reception. My long curly hair. Hahaha feel na feel ko lang talaga and imagine for a cheap hair extensions I looked expensive. :D So sulit!!! I let her do her thing, she knows it better than me. So care bears na ako, basta the results are good. I am happy. Basta pretty, happy. :)) No need to stress about too much details, especially on your special day. Let the professionals do their work. *wink*

If I will have another big event, I will surely ask for their services without a blink of an eye and recommend them to everyone.

★★★★★

I will rate her performance overall with 5 out of 5 stars.

P.S. I will post about my hiatus soon! The big reveal. :))
