Going Crazy over ShoeCrazeee

 Hey guys.. I suck so bad at this blogging thing, i know.. but just wanna tell ya’ll that i read every single one of your posts.. it’s part of my daily routine.. hehe..

Anyway, I have been ogling at this online store for months! I mean months.. :)

Shoecrazeee is so addicting.. even just for “window” shopping.. i just love to browse through their shoe albums, be it boots, flats, heels or wedges.. the styles are just so diverse that u’ll certainly something you would fancy..

I’ve been browsing for months and i did find stuff that i really like but there were some things that we’re holding me back :
1. i dunno what my size would be.. i’m usually a 7 to 7.5 but there are some brands that I’m either an 8 or 8.5
2. i just don’t like pre-orders especially if it’s my first time to buy in an online store and i am not sure if  i’ll be satisfied with the quality.

I tried googling reviews about the store so i can check what the actual pictures would look like.

We all know that there are some online stores that has super awesome product photos.. but when you actually get the product, you’ll get disappointed that the product u bought looks different(in a bad way) from the photo you saw on the site when u ordered.

Unfortch, there were just 2 reviews/posts i found.. (one’s from one of my girl crushes here in bloggerworld : Tish :).. check out here post! )

Good thing though i found something i like on their SALE album..
It’s on sale, it’s on-hand and it’s my size 7.5.. it’s just fate! haha

So here it is..

I got it for Php 1350.00.. it might be pricey for some but the quality and fit just makes it so worth it..

It’s comfy to wear even at 4” (i think) because the platform helps..
The leather is nice..
It doesn’t rub against my soles the wrong way and
the most important thing to consider when buying heels is that it doesn’t wobble..

it’s very sturdy so it makes it easy for walking.. no more walking around looking like your in pain or something.. hehe

How it looks like when worn :

I think it looks sexy with jeans but even more so with shorts/skirts

I’ve worn this a couple of times at work and I am loving it!

Since i found my optimal size on Shoecrazeee.. i think i am now ready to join their pre-order! woot!

But dang! it’s just too hard to choose.. i wanna get them all..

Let me show you what I am talking about :

A lot! i know.. and all heels!
They do have some boots, wedges and flats but I am more of a heels type-a-girl..

Hope ya’ll enjoyed the shoeporn.. hehe..

Let’s break the silence , shall we?

I think tags are an awesome way to break the silence here in my blog..
I have been MIA again for the nth  time.. been so busy with work lately due to Quarter End Reviews and Visitors that I go home super exhausted.. not wanting to do anything but just eat, watch torrents and sleep. Too busy that I dont even have the energy to comment on your posts.. though i do read every single one of your posts religiously, thanks to Google Reader.
I do create drafts since I try to take pictures of food places and hauls. I just havent had time to actually write something.
I’ve been seeing this tag from my favorite beauty bloggers (yes i consider you guys as the real deal when it comes to honest to goodness reviews, unlike some pro dudes that turns reviews in to advertorials) – see i told u i read your blogs.. hehe
Anyway, here goes my answers to 40 Questions

I have oily skin on the face and uber dry on the bod.

Purity Made Simple by Philosophy.
- yup, it has been my HG (and lifesaver) since my review last year. Every time i try a different facial wash, i get breakouts so i just ended up going back to this one.

For the face. I would want to but the only product that did work wonders for me was discontinued and I am out already. huhuhu . The other ones i have tried either gave me bumps after or dries out my skin.
What brand do you use?
Human Nature Brown Rice Scrub
What moisturizer do you use?
Hope in a Jar by Philosophy

I do but haven’t found one that makes me happy.

Did you ever have to use Pro-activ?
Nope.
MAKE-UP
What foundation do you use?
Depends on the mood.
For good skin days, I use Monave Concealer Foundation in Mirabella
For days that I need more coverage, I use MAC StudioFix Fluid in NC37
For days that I know I’ll get photographed (hehe.. like dinner/lunch outs or events), I use MUFE Mat Velvet –> super photogenic in my opinion. :)
How about concealer?
MAC StudioFinish concealer in NW30 for the undereyes. For the blemishes, the foundation I use already covers it..

Yup. I have yellow undertones

Something I have lots of but dunno how to use.. hehe

Yup.

Some Fiberwig Mascara I got from HongKong.

MAC

Nope

For the face?
Yup. Cant do without it else I feel naked.. hehe

MAC Samoa Silk and Expensive Pink

Gel liners only. Pencil and Liquid eyeliners I have tried smudges on me. Making me look like a zombie.
How often do you poke your eyes with an eyeliner pencil?
Very rarely since I don’t use it often.

Yup

They’re special in their own way. :)
Do you go to CCO's? (cosmetic company outlets)
I would be going there every payday if we have one here in Manila .. hehehe
Did you ever consider taking make-up classes?
Nope.
- Because if i do then that means I would  have to take doing makeup gigs seriously so i can get an ROI. That takes the fun out of it for me. As y’all know I don’t like being compelled to do stuff..
Are you clumsy in putting on makeup?
Sometimes.

Eyebrow stuff

i think I look ok.. the prince says he likes me better without but i think he’s just biased.. hahaha
In your opinion, what is the BEST makeup line?
NARS for blushes and MAC for everything else
What do you think of Makeup??
Makeup is a very powerful tool that can boost one’s confidence, make or break one’s look and that every woman should have in their arsenal.. hehe
