Symbol of life
While shopping for some sterling silver last Thursday, my sister and I initially wanted to buy some cross pendants since mum was insisting to pay for us.
But my blonde self (who usually surfaces after school out of exhaustion from information overload) got the Ankh instead of the common crucifix since I thought it was the same thing plus it looked more "me".
After remembering that it was actually the Egyptian symbol for "eternal life," I Wikied it and after some reading found that it was also used nowadays by Hippie and Goth subcultures.
How odd, I think I've been called out as those stereotypes more than once in my life.
So far I'm likin this symbol, as it also means "Cross of Life" for Christians.
I'm thinkin it's a good design for the white tattoo I've been dying to get... Even Erykah Badu has an ankh tattoo!
(cool branded/embossed look of the white tattoo)

Makeup review: MaxFactor's Masterpiece Glide & Define liquid eyeliner
[source: Amazon]
MF's Glide&Define is being sold at Php 550.00 or $11.40
They ran out of black so I opted for SMOKE which is like a dark slate/blue-grey tone.
I like it cos the color is more subtle compared to black which usually makes me look more... evil.
The felt tip glides on really smoothly, application is easy and it's small/handy (3" only) so it's not hard to work with. The liquid has strong pigments so you don't have to keep piling it on to create a stronger colour.
I'm only worried about the staying power and how long one tube will last (since it's small). The sales associate warned me about the cover as well- I have to screw it on tightly cos it dries out easily.
So far this lands on the 2nd spot of my liquid liners list. The first spot still belongs to Shiseido's Fine Eyeliner:
Refillable, HEAVY strong pigments, really smooth glide and easier to draw fine lines with.
$28 at Sephora, refills are for $14.
And the third spot belongs to the Face Shop's Simple Draw liquid eye liner.
($10.40 or Php 500+)
The quality of the ink's great and the pen is easy to grip, but the problem with this one is that one pen lasts only a week if you use it everyday. SAD.
