BENEFITS OF WHEY PROTEIN

Are you a health conscious person who hit the gym regularly? Well, I'm not exactly a health conscious person, but I do go to the gym regularly to workout every now and then because I'm quite a vain person. I want a lithe and toned body that is admired by many. 

Working out is proven to be quite a difficult task for a person who lacks discipline like me. More often than not, I find that it is difficult to focus on my gym routine because I feel tired easily. My personal trainer was rather concerned about me, and therefore, he suggested that I consume Nature's Best whey protein to boost up my energy during those rigorous workout sessions. 


I was reluctant to try it in the beginning because I was not familiar with it, but I was informed that whey protein is important for active individuals who exercise a lot as it is made of high quality protein powder made from cow’s milk and is often referred to as the gold standard of protein as it is the most nutritious protein available.Whey protein is a high quality, complete protein, with all the essential amino acids and is also the richest known source of naturally occurring branched chain amino acids. 

After a lot of coaxing and coercing from my personal trainer, I finally tried whey protein and I discovered that it's really helpful in providing me all the energy that I need to stay focus during my workout sessions. So, ladies and gentlemen, if you practise an active lifestyle and needs some supplements to provide you some extra boost, I daresay that whey protein is quite a safe bet. Do give it a try. I bet you would benefit from it the way that I did.

I woke up with the sound of fire trucks passing by our narrow street, I was really thinking it was still part of my dream, but when I heard my neighbors humming … yeah, it’s fire at the end of the street, my dream angels just flew out of the window the last thing I know I was standing barefoot at our driveway, thank goodness it was declared fire out after 30 minutes. 

I thought I was out of the rage, but I wasn’t spared, my internet cable was just swept by the rushing firetrucks, situations like this can really make one’s mood skyrocket to hell, gods of the internet hear my plea, I really don’t know what happened exactly during the action but the cable was practically pulled out from the post. 

Image not mine

It took three days for my new provider to finally fix it, I was out of the cyber circulation for some time and I was like a fish out of water. I finally decided to change my internet provider I’ve been with them for some time and was actually experiencing bad swings with their service and thought it's about time, but thing with time, they’re the hardest to find sometimes, thanks to that fire I'm getting back to my sanity now.

The reviews and testimonials of this provider seem promising, those who have tried tagged it so far as the best internet provider in my region and we’ll see. It just dawned to me now that half of my life’s circumstance is really dependent on this technology, its downside is also mine, if you guys are into same boat as me, you better get yourself the best internet provider to avoid mood dangles in the future. 

Here’s a good and high-speed internet service provider that comes with ultra amazing add-ons you can start with, it’s like hitting several birds with one stone, try this site … http://www.comcast.com/internet-service.html

SHOPPING FOR INTIMATE APPAREL AND ACCESSORIES

As frugal as I am about everything else, I am extra cheap when it comes to clothing and even on the undergarments. Clearly, I don’t buy what the stores call fashion forward clothing; because I believe today’s trend is tomorrow’s donation to Goodwill. Some people might consider that dull. Others might say I prefer classic styles. I accept dull, because dull is more affordable. But even if, like most people, you spend more on clothes than I do, I have some wonderful strategies that can help you cut how much you pay. 


If you buy ahead of the season, you’re going to pay too much. But if all you do is wait until the actual season to buy, you would save a tremendous amount of money, as retailers mark down the merchandise in order to move it. Since, Valentine’s Day is approaching; buying lingerie accessories online is on the hip. Whether you are married, or in relationship, you might want to try these intimate accessories and be seductive to the eye of your partner. 

To complete the sensual experience, you might want to shop for quality and gorgeous intimate cosmetics online. Fragrances, body lotion and powder have a big contribution in teasing your beloved partner. Okay, enough! That is only my wild idea on celebrating Valentine’s Day. I won’t shop for myself, but if the dear husband wants to buy this sexy intimate apparel as a gift for me on Valentine’s Day, hmmm, let’s see what will happen next.

So this not-so-feminist just indulged herself to buying an eight hundred and plus pesos cake of mixed chemicals said to be fit for woman consumption, it’s called Revlon Age Defying with DNA Advantage, the lady, whose face plastered thickly with make-up at the counter was so good at explaining the merchandise facts of this product, so good that a woman so prejudice with face 'coloretes' and all didn't hesitate to empty her pocket.

First of all this red rectangle-cased powder looks so good on picture. Second, it's dang so great on a 40 year old and something face skin, it live up to it's promise of smooth, fine and silky finish - just don't hang yourself around too balmy places. Third, I actually don't like the idea that it comes with a brush, though technically, the brush is good for even distribution of  powder on your face, it leaves soft crumbs around the case making it a little messy and blowing it before tucking is what I find it not favorable, but you always have the option to use a sponge. Fourth, the age defying thing there is actually a tricky promise ... this won't help defy your age, believe me, you'll accumulate it as you go along, it can't be covered,  and only  you woman and your life's disposition can defy it..

Research shows that people who effectively handle stress have three things in common: 

(a) They have a mission in life and they committed to fulfilling it, 
(b) They consider life a challenge, and 
(c) They don’t feel victimized by life, but believe that setbacks are only temporary. In short, they have a positive outlook. But for those people who suffered mental, emotional, physical strain caused by anxiety or overwork, it may cause such symptoms as raised blood pressure or depression.

Anyway, if you suffer emotional state of mind, and it seems you are ready to explode, you may need to seek for assistance from neurology specialists. I actually have found the world-renowned leader in adult and pediatric neurology via online. The Alan and Barbara Mirken Department of Neurology have specialists who are highly trained in diagnosing and treatment of mental disorders and diseases of the nervous system. This includes the major subspecialty such as: Adult epilepsy, Stroke and critical care, Neuro-ophthalmology, Pediatric epilepsy, to name a few. If you know somebody who needs assistance from this group of neurology, I would recommend visiting this online clinic. You can easily find the doctor or specialist according to their clinical expertise. If you have questions, phone numbers are provided on every specialist.

KEEPING THE SPARK IN A RELATIONSHIP ALIVE

Getting into a relationship can be easy but spicing and maintaining it up to sustain and keep the fire burning  between couples can be the most challenging obstacle in any relationship. This theory is all well supported by a thousand how-to books and love merchandise we can see in the market today, some would even go as far as organizing out-of-the-box-events to serve this purpose. 


On a more intimate level some would explore and experiment sensual possibilities with their partners, some would do the usual with a different a setting, romantic get-away maybe, a trip to a deserted island and or for more adventurous partners they can go as far as hurting each other, the possibilities are endless. But with all of these at play there is only one thing I find so common – the lingerie. 

I swear there is nothing more exciting than a woman seeing a man wearing his six-pack abs and standing aback in skimpy Jockeys, sorry it’s woman’s POV this time, but it’s true, just giving men out there helpful hints that it’s not only you who have an eye for seduction. Well, the bottomline is that intimate things like this can never be so much satisfying without both’s effort, it comes two ways. 

And for men  out  there who want to see and surprise their partners in a most seductive way but have no guts to  linger  around  department  store's  intimate  area, you always have the option to order lingerie online some men are just too embarrassed to go straight to the lingerie section to choose wild designs they picture in their minds, in fact buying sexy lingerie online can be very convenient and they're in fact wilder than you can ever imagine.

It’s a great experience to explore our human sexuality, vis-à-vis keeping the spark in a relationship alive, just remember to do it safely and conscientiously.

FINDING A DRESS FOR A SPECIAL OCCASION

I always have this strong conviction that fashion, when truly understood is definitely all about freedom. When women know and understand the lines and curves of their bodies and will have this idea on how to work around with it, this gives women an invaluable self-assurance to be themselves, to feel better and to look their best. 

But just how exactly this should be done? 

Not all women are created the same - physique wise, so it is best to always outline and accentuate your positive sides to draw notice of your strong points. For example; 

  1. If you have bigger bottom and have a smaller top, it is best to highlight the area above your waist and always remember the rule of thumb that less is more. 
  2. If you are blessed with wide hip or thigh, don’t worry, just get into an A-line cut skirts or anything loose to disguise it. Your strong point here is to work on showing some skin on your shoulder area to offset it. 
  3. And if you happen to have narrow hip and slim legs, this isn’t any problem at all; you can always go for ball skirts or designs that will cover this flaw. 
  4. If you’re full breasted, I suggest to not go for tops that will make your breast swell out of the dress, some women though would love to emphasize this but personally I’d still want that little mystery behind the obvious. 

And if you find it hard to come across nicely designed dresses, there are beautiful occasion Dresses by Sherri Hill at MissesDressy.com you can consider browsing – trendy designs, affordable prices and most of all customer service is just awesome. Go check their site today! 

And granting you’ve chosen your perfect design, here’s some personal I do’s I’d like to share with you; 
  1. First of all, get the best support. Find the correct bra that fits you. There are now cheaper alternatives that work well just like the expensive ones, though only they don’t last longer at least the fit is just right for you. 
  2. Take heed of your undergarments. Some dresses are made of materials so sensitive to protrusions, so note about panty lines and score seamless underwears. There are now full body girdles available at any intimate sections, this may just be a band-aid solution but this will help you hide all those unwanted bulges in an instant so it’s an option to consider. 
  3. Accessorize. Invest on a good pair of nude or black pumps, a good clutch and a nice pair of an all-occasion jewelry set. 
  4. Grooming. The hair can make or break your look so better drop by a salon to have your hair blown or trimmed and styled hours before the event. The nails are all equally important too, have that discernment when to get loud and when to get clean and low with colors. 

So there, I hope I’ve helped a little, thanks for dropping by ladies.

"A WORK OF ARTIFICE"

I reviewed some of my materials for summer class, what a heap of papers I had, when I dusted a copy of Marge Piercy’s ‘A Work of Artifice’ I thought I hadn’t shared this poem here in my blog yet. There are actually thousands of these poem published and analyzed all over the internet, but for personal consumption so they say, I’ll had this here. 

If you’re into gender or women-related studies and looking for powerful albeit easy pieces you’re required to analyze in your coursework on the representation of women, Piercy’s work is one brilliant metaphor you shouldn’t miss probing. 

A Work of Artifice 
Marge Piercy 

The bonsai tree
in the attractive pot
could have grown eighty feet tall
on the side of a mountain
till split by lightning.
But a gardener
carefully pruned it.
It is nine inches high.
Every day as he
whittles back the branches
the gardener croons,
It is your nature
to be small and cozy,
domestic and weak;
how lucky, little tree,
to have a pot to grow in.
With living creatures
one must begin very early
to dwarf their growth:
the bound feet,
the crippled brain,
the hair in curlers,
the hands you
love to touch.

PERSONALIZED WEDDING FAVORS

A wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and it carries a once-in-a-lifetime price tag. One of the hottest trends in the wedding industry is to combine the wedding and honeymoon. My cousin and his bride did this. They got married and had their honeymoon at the same resort hotel here in our place. The wedding package includes hotel accommodation, the wedding settings like the altar, flowers, doves, and the food and drinks at the reception area. But the wedding cake, invitation letters, photography, and wedding favors are not included in the package. It was my aunt who ordered the wedding favors for the guests. 

Anyway, if you are looking for wedding favors, you can find it at eFavormart. It is an online store for wedding accessories and supplies. I understand that planning a wedding will cost you a lot, but the gifts that you will buy at eFavormart are inexpensive. In addition to that, it is easy to transport the gifts after the reception because it also includes favor boxes and bags. The boxes and bags can be personalized too. You can write the names of the groom and bride and the date of the wedding to ensure that your guest will always remember that they were part on your very special day.

‘THIS IS 40’ AND I AM 40, ARRRGGG!

This is not a film review this is more like a self-reflection after I got knocked off by Pete (Paul Rudd) and Debbie (Leslie Mann) in the latest Judd Apatow directorial comedy flick ‘This is 40’. I’ve been true to my 2013 self-promise to watch at least 1 movie a week and I had this over a bucket of microwaved cheesy popcorn which I won’t do it again next time, I felt like the sea has gotten up to my head. 

So this movie follows the life of Pete and Debbie, a couple in their 40’s blessed with two unrelenting girls, god, I can see my kids in them fighting over petty things which I suppose shouldn’t be fought over but, you know kids, they just love to … gosssh! And me? Imagine you’re beating up writing deadlines and they’re at the other room whining and pillow fighting, what are you going to do? Move out somewhere in the mountain of tralala or open your mouth out loud and yell? 

I never really had thought about me coming-of-middle-age; I said it’s just a number, but at the back of my mind, Jesus Christ! I still have a lot of things to do and I’m stuck right here raising kids. Sometimes, if not most of the time, understanding the shades of feminism and raising kids under stern religious bend just don’t jive well together, it’s like a square me pegged in a round hole. 

Anyway, when I turned 40 last year, I self-declared a mom’s birthday day-off, I went to Red Cross to donate my dang AB blood, it’s the noblest thing I can think of to mark the day I’ve lived half of my life’s expectancy in this world but it was a failed attempt, my hemoglobin has gone down and was turned down by that bloodless lady at the counter. I thought I would throw a party and dance my head off ‘till the wee hours of the night but in the end traded the funds for a ‘me-time’ and went to the park people watching. I was just crazy, lol. 

Previously I was one of those idealists who want a life to be this and to be that but my coming-of-middle-age made me realize … fine, while society said women should be this and should be that, … who cares … wtf, my reality is far different from the ideal, hence, I shifted course - ‘change and do what I can, leave what I can’t and just live free, nobody gets of this world alive anyway, bahala kayo.’ 

While I don’t want my kids to have mouths as brutal as the kids in this movie, it’s something I’m working being their steward to be good and eventually productive earthlings of this planet at least I’ve done something until they would be mature enough to weigh things on their own whether to get into the convent or to get into the streets and join other radicals in ‘bra-burning.’ 

I’m not so hard about life anymore, now that I’ve come-of-middle-age, I’m assuming that I’m both strong that I’m able to forgive and intelligent enough to be able to ignore whatever fuckin’ non-life threatening issue there is. Coming-of-middle-age is far different from the marriage itself, it’s all about me coming to understand my realities and relationships and work as fair and as with justice and equality to bring together accord and free my head out of stress. Di ba? 

Back to the movie. It’s quiet long for this kind of story. And guess what I’d rather do it myself than find out my husband taking in Viagra for what?- It doesn’t make sense to me. And forgive my words, but just my pure personal opinion – this movie shows the liminalities of American values, the fight between the noble and the not and ‘the should be’ and ‘the should be not’ but over all it was fun!

THAT PINK BREAST CANCER LOGO

I was at my OB-Gynecologist’s clinic the other day, I went to have my pap smear scheduled and at the same time did my regular up and down there check-up. While waiting for the doctor, a co-patient in her 40’s, so fixated with what the medical magazine, out of the blue, threw me a question,… ‘so why do breast cancer and its campaigns bear a pink ribbon logo?’ She was looking at me with a big question mark on her face, so I was sure she wanted me to answer it. I said, ‘probably because pink as a color is generally associated with women and breast cancer mainly troubles women, that’s why’, but it was more of an assumption than a conclusion. But with all seriousness, I actually don’t know the origin myself and since I don’t want to get into hot water again, I read … 

So, the pink ribbon, which we generally recognize as the breast cancer logo was first used in 1991 when Susan G. Komen Foundation, a well-funded breast cancer organization which supports and conducts research for the cure of this cancer, handed out these little pink ribbons to the participants of the breast cancer awareness campaign, since then, it has become a symbol of the Breast Cancer Awareness Month that is celebrated every October. This fête also aim at meeting generous sponsors and donors that will fund the foundation’s activities. 

While the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation claimed ownership of this logo, under most influences, this logo is actually a public domain, hence, one can use, modify, revise or alter such that may deem best fit to what it necessitates. 

So now I know.

'SECRETS OF THE RED VEIL' 
By Horacio Cardozo 
up for sale at http://fineartamerica.com/products/1-secrets-of-the-red-veil-horacio-cardozo-art-print.html 

I saw this post falling on my Facebook wall after I liked this page https://www.facebook.com/Kacyandfriends , it’s a nice and pleasant page that posts inspiring memes and relevant information of just about anything around life. 

I hope https://www.facebook.com/Kacyandfriends won't mind if I’ll post this article here, it comes with my personal judgments (in Itals) about men also.

So here; 

If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
(So far ours is working, not perfect though, but at least no headaches and heartaches, just a MIL that, well, they say, strong people forgive and intelligent ones ignore, I would assume I'm both, lol.)

Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better.
(And why would I ever change for a relationship, relationship is about compromise and compromise is a two-way thing)

Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends". A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. Don't settle.
(Downright True!)

If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is don't stay because you think "it will get better" You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
(I can listen to women begging for their men to stay, but I just can't get the gist of it, I'm just so slow on this)

Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?
(This kind of man needs to be kidnapped, deadened and have his vans deferens cut off, yeah, I'm still a forgiving woman at least he still have to enjoy some waves of pleasure minus the consequence)

Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
(Sadly, they're all gone physically, but we've turned cyborgs, LMAO)

Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
(Hence, know every inch of what you want and your rights ladies!)

Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
(Hahaha! You nailed it Oprah! My lips are securely sealed.)

You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.
(And often it doesn't happen, so why the hell bother)

Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are ... Even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less. Never let a man define who you are.
(I've defined myself long before I've gotten into a relationship so there's no point - him redefining me)

Never borrow someone else's man. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
(I'd rather score a pulsator)

A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you. All men are NOT dogs. You should not be the one doing all the bending ... Compromise is two way street.
(Yeah, also know your cards as well, when and when not to throw it)

You need time to heal between relationships ... There is nothing cute about baggage ... Deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you ... A relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals ... Look for someone complimentary ... not supplementary.
(Ever since I've first had a boyfriend, I always do it one at a time and has a breather in between)

Dating is fun ... even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right. Make him miss you sometimes ... when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted.
(I let him know where I am, for security purposes, but I always impose 'don't call me, I'll call you policy', unless it's emergency)

Never move into his mother's house.
(Shit! My mistake, but I’m not compromising, she’s not even in good terms with her son, I wonder how it happened, one great regret of this marriage, the downside of being an only son and living in a society where family is the core of it, anyway, wish a social infrastructure of sending olds to a home for the aged is in place and welcome in this nation, but sadly, it’s not.) 

Never co-sign for a man.
(I never, in fact, I never asked how much he’s earning, I just gave him all the utility, credit and school bills, and ask weekly rations for the grocery, what he earns, he shares, what I earn is mine, LOL, but do shopping for him sometimes) 

Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.
(I commit sometimes, depends on the intensity of the situation, but I never submit that’s for sure) 

Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
(It’s just that I’m just so sure about myself to survive and live whatever happens to this monogamous relationship, so I couldn’t care less) 

Scared of being alone is what makes a lot of women stay in relationships that are abusive or hurtful: Dr. Phil says; You should know that: You're the best thing that could ever happen to anyone and if a man mistreats you, he'll miss out on a good thing. If he was attracted to you in the 1st place, just know that he's not the only one. They're all watching you, so you have a lot of choices. Make the right one. Ladies take care of your own hearts...
(Very well, a reason why I’m perfecting solo hobbies, gaahhh, that’s minus the crochet, lelz) 

Thanks Oprah for your words of wisdom.

EVENING PRIMROSE OIL FOR HEALTHY PURPOSES

The modern society is nothing more than a shadow of what it used to be. The greatest change in this society involves the emancipation of women’s rights and a greater emphasis on gender equality. There is no denying that this is a positive shift but it is also hard to deny the fact that the women of today bear more upon their shoulders. Juggling the demands of both family and career could be a tricky and steep slope, and if you’re not careful, you could stumble and all the stress and pressures of life could take a toll on you. This is the reason why it is extremely important for women to take extra care of their health and start from an early stage when your body is still able to absorb as much nutrients and supplements that you are giving it. 



Whilst there is no denying that the market out there is offering a ton of products and supplements for womens’ health, Evening Primrose Oil is a very popular supplement for women. Made from the seed of the evening primrose flower, it is a naturally occurring essence that contains gamma linolenic acid which the body converts into a hormone-like substance that is known as prostlaglandin. This works to balance out the hormonal systems in women which leads to a general improvement in wellbeing. Investing in one’s health is definitely an investment in which the gains and benefits are purely enjoyed by you, and Seven Seas’ has been a long trusted brand in this field.

JUST ONE FAITHFUL DISCIPLE OF SUN TZU HERE

I can’t exactly remember which bookstore I was able to rummage this 'The Art of War' book I have on my bedside table right now, [I’ve downloaded an Android app on this, but I still cling back to the old school] but the date I wrote at the back cover is still clear, Oct. 28, 1989, so logically I’ve been consuming a Sun Tzu strategy for 24 years now, some of it worked, some didn’t because I didn’t understand and struggle with it like hell, lol – and someone said here, it’s not the strategy that is a fail, it’s the execution that is, fine, I rest my case. 

I’m a real fan of this ancient hyper intellectual Chinese General, I don’t know but probably just love to squeeze off cerebral juices out of my poor, drained wits and here’s one that I was battling to decipher at 4:30 in the morning, don’t ask me why it went with the crow of my neighbors rooster, that would be another story. 

So here: 

SUN TZU said, When a chieftain in fighting in his own territory, it is dispersive ground. When he has penetrated into hostile territory, it is facile ground. Ground the possession of which imports great advantage to either side, is contentious ground. On dispersive ground, therefore, fight not. On facile ground, halt not. On contentious ground, attack not. On contentious ground, I would hurry up my rear. 

To be honest I can feel a stream of blood coming out of my godamn nose, lol. I was thinking … it was more difficult I guess with the early interpreters, Had I been born in Sun Tzu's time then probably I gone dizzy seeing men in robes brushing their creased foreheads walking to and fro thinking about his fancy statements. 

Anyway, I figured probably if applied to women’s relationship with men, can it be that …. When you’re on your own territory, you should just be composed and calm, as you know your way in and out of it, I care less if a man ran out of my door in briefs, lol. When you’re on a nonaligned or neutral territory, you can drop a bomb without care and just walk away and when you’re on someone else’s, say men's ground, keep your ass covered and when circumstance call hurry up, pick everything, never allow a trace and leave. 

Geez, I wonder if my brain neurons are still in place, I’m feeling my synapse has failed functioning. Hahaha! Have a great weekend ladies.

So you want to look like a Hollywood star? 

Me too I want to look like one, LOL, I mean, me thinking about how it’s like to look like one, probably I’ll start by getting myself an extra sized Jackie-O and wear them even if I’m indoors, I guess it’s the best and the usual way to cover-up the face and hide from the paparazzi. Do this look familiar? 

Hollywood stars are known to be voracious consumers of outrageously expensive designer goods; some even are named after them, so if you want to keep-up with the Hollywood culture, get your pocket drained and go get swipie with your cards at places and shops A-list stars dare to go. 

And to complete that red carpet look don’t forget to have your hair and make-up done by professionals. They’re the best people whose hands can work like magic that can transform you into a camera-ready look girlie in a snap. 

But not everyone is as wealthy and as lucky and as pretty as Angelina Jolie, so here’s one great piece of counsel I can share with you in getting that Hollywood look in a fraction of your money and time, invest on a nice and quality air brush for make up, unlike the traditional make-up where you rub or dab make-up on your skin, airbrushing mists ultra fine liquid-base make-up making it set evenly and lightly on your skin. Since it’s being sprayed, it brings flawless and provides no room for imperfections making your skin beautifully finished and natural looking. It can even set or stay on your skin for 24 hours without smearing, caking or blotching. 

If you haven’t decided on what kind of make-up you’re going to use for your pictorial, wedding or other photo sessions that require close-up shots, this is definitely the kind of make-up method you should consider, it’s purposely made to be flawlessly compatible with high-definition projection. Whether it’s for daily and light make-up or for night and heavy ones, airbrushing make-up definitely delivers without a flaw. And if you plan to buy a set for yourself, Temptu airbrush make-up system is what I highly recommend, they’re engineered for easy and trouble-free use, check out their site for more details and on how to purchase here, http://temptu.com/airbrush-system.
