Palty Foam Hair Dye Review

I’ve been using Palty hair dye for almost 3 times already and so far, i’m quite satisfied with the results. And now that the brand has a foam or bubble version too, I made sure to try it out and here’s what happened…

Brand:  Palty

Type: Foam/Bubble hair dye

Color: Macaron Brown

What’s inside the box:

Procedure:

Before (looked like I had highlights):

After (my hair color before and this one were actually quite the same, thus the similar tone):

________________________________________________________________

Likes:

• Very easy application since you just have to mix the liquids and “shampoo” it in your hair
• My hair felt so smooth after washing the dye off
• The leave-on conditioner smells good

Dislikes:

• There’s a strong smell but pretty much tolerable
• Although the mixture formed bubbles very fast, it also subsided quickly. So the picture in the box of the model doing the procedure with bubbles in her hair didn’t actually happen to me. 

Verdict:

I’ll give this product a 6 out of 10 rating.

The main reason I wanted to dye my hair was just to cover up the roots and after applying this foam hair dye, it did actually cover most of the upper part of my hair so i’m pretty much okay with that (the picture above didn’t actually show it maybe because of the lighting but my roots were actually covered fairly enough). The color spread out evenly to the rest of the areas of my hair as well although there were still some secluded parts not covered. Compared to Palty’s original dyes, the foam ones are actually better when it comes to coverage. But perhaps, I’ll probably try out other brands when it comes to foam dyes like the original Kao Prettia. Palty just didn’t reach my expectation(s) with their foam dye version. 

Btw, I bought my Palty foam hair dye in Platinum mall, Bangkok which costs around 300baht something if I remembered it correctly. Haha! :))

All we need is JUST ONE SUMMER: A Movie Review

For the love of JuliElmo, I decided to make a movie review on their first movie team-up, Just One Summer. I am also posting again in this blog after months of being MIA… and a post that’s non-fashion/beauty/photography or other randomness related. So, hello-hi once again! ;)

JUST ONE SUMMER (A Season That Can Change Your Life Forever)

Here are my thoughts on the movie (bias aside, seriously):

• The storyline basically is something that’s simple and predictable. Rich boy-poor girl lovestory, both have their own family problems, then they get comfort from each other… and the rest is history. But even so, you still get  that different feeling on how the story may unfold especially the “in-between” scenes in the story. You still get that “curiosity” feeling on what may happen next. 
• I love the cinematography! I love the shots especially in the farm. Really breathtaking! :)) 
• There were some transitions in the scenes that I didn’t like… parang rushed. I thought there were some scenes I wished could have been longer to give more emphasis or explanation. Actually, I thought how the movie unfolded was just too fast.
• Great music used in some scenes (Girl Be Mine, Bakit Ba Ganyan, Moving Closer).. added more kilig! ;)
• Regarding the two lead stars, Julie Anne and Elmo were surprisingly good.. such revelations! Both suited their roles. Julie Anne (who plays as Beto/Bertina) was a natural… swear! Yung kapag kinikilig siya.. kinikilig ka rin ng malala! Nakakadala talaga! Tapos if crying scenes, ay nako! Parang gripo lang ang kanyang mga mata! Galing! Elmo (who plays as Nyel/Daniel) on the other hand was very good in his scenes with his Papa Dan (Joel Torre). Their scenes were really INTENSE and you can really feel it. I really really love the scenes when Nyel shouted at his father tapos akmang susuntukin na ni Dan si Nyel, and yung sinuntok ni Nyel yung papa niya… AWESOME!!! 
• The veteran actors and actresses were awesome as well! However I wished the supporting ones were also given enough scenes or appearances… Like uhmmm, ano nga pala name ni Lexi Fernandez dun sa movie? Haha! Tapos Sef Cadayona… sana he was given more selosan scenes (with dialogues!) :D   
• I LOVE NYEL’S LINES TOWARDS BETO! Oh so romantic!!! Actually, what I really love in the movie are those lines (but not just of Nyel but of the other characters as well). Here are some examples:

ariemacherie asked: how many bottles of palty did you use, and how long did you leave it on to get the colour you desired?

Hi, i used only one bottle of Palty. I left it for about 30 minutes :)

Step by step

Senior year officially starts for me and I just can’t wait to get through it!

This dress was a hand me down from one of my older cousins (so yeah, it’s vintage). I love it! Paired it with my new nude mary jane loafers heels. And the bag, was bought in Bangkok. Don’t you just love it? :)

Last hooray for summer, indeed! :))
