Learning is Fun at HD Academy


Hi everyone! I hope all of you are having a great weekend. It’s been almost 2 months since my last post and I apologize to all of you guys. I wasn’t lazy to make some blog post but I just wanted to focus on one thing if I have started doing it so the lack of post.
I’m sooooo excited to announce that I graduated yesterday on the Beauty and Fashion Hairstyling Course at HD Make-up Academy. Yes I finally did it! I learned a lot of different hairstyles but I still need more practice. They say we have to master at least 5 hairstyles that we can interchange on different clients. But if I can do more, why not right? Final pictures of the photo-shoot will come after a month but I have few snapshots to show you guys.

Did I also tell you that I took their Beauty and Fashion Make-up course? I bet not but I believe I gave a hint on my last update. Anyway, I took the Make-up course in September and I graduated in October. I enrolled myself in the weekend class just so I can have more time to practice what I learned during weekdays.
I’ve been thinking about going to a Make-up school even before I started to blog. But because I had a very difficult schedule when I was working I didn’t have the time to do it. When I decided to leave my job I thought it was the right time to pursue my dream and so I enrolled at HD Academy.

I searched a lot of Beauty schools in Manila. I’ve read good reviews about HD from other beauty bloggers who also studied there. My mentors were Jeave Gabiana and Stef Chua Sing. Words are not enough to thank both of them for teaching us, their students. Learning wouldn’t have been this fun if they are not the teachers. I had great times in school and I will surely miss all of them. Until now I can still hear Sir Jeave’s voice when I am doing make-up (hindi pantay, hindi pantay) laughs.  Both of them are very patient and they have keen eyes to identify flaws on your make-up. They give comments and suggestions so that you can correct your work and make it look better. It wasn’t easy but it was fun.
Make-up school was full of fun experiences. I enjoy being with people who have the same interest as mine. We show our make-up to each other and talk about it. At first, I just really want to learn how to properly apply make-up not only to myself but also to others. The school exceeded my expectations; because of that I didn’t have a second thought to enroll in the Hair Styling class. I decided to pursue my interest in make-up as a career. This is what I love doing, there are still a lot of things that I have to learn but I do believe that practice makes perfect.

Below are few of the photos I took in the shoot of the Beauty and Fashion Make-up as well as the Hair Styling course. I hope you guys will like them as I do.






I also wanted to say Thank you to my models Milky Santiago and Anne De Leon. You guys nailed it!
Till my next post everyone. Enjoy!

    Hey there Yanny! HD Academy will give you a list of the things you'll need during the course. I advise you bring make-up including foundation, face powder, contouring powder, blush-on, lipstick, mascara eyebrow cake/pencil. Goodluck!

Milani Single and Quad eyeshadow

Hello pretties! How have you all been doing lately? I've been busy thinking if I should get a MAC eyeshadow palette or MAC brushes. But when I heard from youtube gurus that Milani have nice colors of eyeshadows which are pretty the same of MAC I went ahead and check google. Here are my top finds for you.  They call this palette Exotic Berries I think that it's because most of the colors in this quad have pink shades. I haven't tried wearing all of the colors from this one and I feel excited to show how it looks. I apologize if I'm not able to take swatches of this. My camera washes off the color when I took the pictures. My favorite color here is the second one from the first row. It has a nice silver color with a little bit of pink shimmer on it but not too shimmery. Next is what they call Sedona Sunset. I can use it when I want that neutral eye look. I also have few single eyeshadow. From left: Almondine, Sheer Sand and Desert Sun. From Lef...

New Bath Companion from Watsons

Who doesn't love taking a bath? I live in the Philippines where it's very humid and the temperature can go up to 60 degree Celsius or even higher during summer. I have bath-time essentials which I use on a daily basis. I just recently run-out of my favorite body wash from The body shop, I first thought of buying new ones from Daiso just to give it a try but I decided to check Watson's first. I know they have body essentials like lotion, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap and even mouthwash at a very reasonable price. Some items are on Buy-one Get-one promo. Watson's carry a lot of different products from head to toe. I have tried their mouthwash and Hair Spa. I must say that they work perfectly the same as the other brands with a higher price tag because of the expensive commercials and advertisements. My husband and I still use their mouthwash until now. Here are my new bath-time companion from Watson's. I currently use this deep moisturizing ...

Maybelline Clear Smooth B.B Stick

Hi Lovely ladies! It's been weeks or month since my last post, I've been pre-occupied with a lot of things but I always kept thinking about this blog and my readers. It's a sunny Thursday today and I'm hoping all of you are having a good day. I can't believe how time pass by so fast. Today I'm going to review a product by Maybelline called Clear Smooth B.B Stick . I've had this for more than a month and I use it when I'm going to the mall or just at home. I saw this babe when I was already making a payment at Watsons. It got my attention because I've never seen a B.B Cream made just like this. I know BB creams are in liquid form like foundation and I've seen a foundation stick but not BB Stick like this one. Maybelline claims: Clear Smooth BB Stick is a multi-benefit product that combines the benefits of skin care, make-up, and sun block in a stick. It contains salicylic acid that helps clear away pores and imperfections, and miner...
