    Etude House Oh-m’ Eye Lash

    I purchased this base coat from Etude house because it claims to:
    1. Protect the lashes
    2. Makes the lashes looks longer

    This is what it looks like:



    excuse my skin it's bare :D

    This is my lashes without anything on it:

    With 2-3 coats of Oh-m’ Eye Lash :


    Topped with mascara:



    Mascara without the base coat:



    This is my second time purchasing this because I lost the other one. It costs Php 199 ($4 USD). There are other mascara that is buildable to achieve this look of lashes without the base coat I just got it for added protection and for my lashes to look longer and thicker.

    Travel Destination: Coron, Palawan, Philippines

    Throwback :Travel Destination: Coron, Palawan, Philippines Sept 2011

    Yes, i am a tourist to my own Country :).I have been hearing beautiful comments  about this place from one of our Peace Corp Volunteer from US , not exactly in Coron but Palawan.
     I was in grade school then so i was like, okey! .

       What can we see in Palawan? Beaches! Beautiful white sand beaches. I live in a Mountainous area so beach is something that always amazes me. It’s not like i’ve never been to the beach , our place is 
    two hours drive to the beach and it’s always our destination during New Year but the beaches in 
    Palawan is the best i’ve ever been so far but if you are in a budget ,doesn’t have the luxury of time 
    and near Baguio City, you can also go to Ilocos which is like 4 hours drive ,  they do  have beautiful white sand beaches.

    "The aquatic views of a dozen sunken Japanese warships at depths between 10 and 40 metres (33 and 130 ft) off Coron Island are making Coron and its neighboring municipalities a popular diving destination,[3] listed in Forbes Traveler Magazine’s top 10 bestscuba diving sites in the world."

    - from  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coron,_Palawan

    There are lots of videos on Youtube if you want to see videos about Palawan.
    It’s nice to experience it though, so these are some of my pictures:

    I can't wait for the plane to hit the ground!

    Twin lake lagoon


    It was called  twin lake lagoon because there is another lake on the other side of this lagoon, it's kinda hidden. We have two options to reach the other lake, either you climb the rocks or you submerge into the water passing through the rocks. I don't know how to swim so I climbed the rocks hehe
