My Verdict on Maybelline Baby Lips Color Tangerine Pop

Aside from my fondness of using hair serum I also love lip balms! I already tried using few brands such as EOS, Chapstick, Nivea, Vaseline and Watsons lip balm. I have a very dry lips and I always bring one wherever I go, it's my saver whenever I'm experiencing chapping or drying of my lips.

I hit the bottom of my Maybelline Dr. Rescue and I was thinking of buying a new one when I saw that they have "New Bright Collection". I thought why not try all of the shade one at a time.

The color tangerine pop got my attention and I was very giddy to purchase it.

Baby lips in Tangerine Pop

I will not make this entry long and continue to my final verdict of this Maybelline tangerine pop lip balm. Here's my two cents on the said product.

It is a little bit pinkish for me rather than orange-y when I applied it on my lips!

Pros:

• It is cheap; I bought it at 89 pesos at the SM Department stores
• It moisturize my lips that has a longevity of 3.5 hours
• 25% visibility of the tangerine pop color (a bit pinkish) which is for my part a good thing because I want to achieve the a natural look on my lips.
• It has SPF
• It has a nice fruity scent

Cons:

• It tends to melt during a hot weather.

I am quite happy with this lip balm and I consider purchasing it again when I finish reviewing all the colors! Do you like this range of lip balm? Why not share your experience below on the comment section.

2015 Annual Team Building at Palm Beach Resort, Laiya Batangas!

Our annual company team building was held last week on the day of "Araw ng Kagitingan" Thursday April 9 to 10. Last year we went to Baguio City of Pines for our team outing but this time the management decided to conduct the event on Palm Beach Resort Laiya Batangas! I am very excited since it was my first time to go to the place and I also missed the beach. It’s been a decade since I had a chance to see an ocean.

We left in Makati exactly 7 in the morning and it took us roughly 4 hours to get to our destination. Good thing the bus has videoke to kill time while we're on the road. We arrived early on the resort and grab the chance to roam around the vicinity for couple of minutes before the activity starts. We use that free time to shot the place, selfies and group pictures!

We are divided into three teams: blue, red and yellow which consists of 6 members per each. 

Red Team from L-R: Maricris, Tin, Sylvia, Joselito, Mark & Ron

I'm part of the yellow team and we call our group as "SuperYellowFragilisticExpialidocious" I don't know if my spelling is correct. I can't even pronounce our group name with out twisting my tongue because it's too long. LOL.

Yellow Team from L-R: Jerwin, James, Gian, Me, Apple & Grapes. Look how fresh and giddy we are here.

Blue Team L-R: Teresa, Paulo, Christine, Jean, Donn, Karlo. The winning team!

To cut the story short we end up on second place and we grabbed the team spirit award! Woot, woot. Here's the picture of our team during the awarding:

We looked very haggard here but we have fun!

After the exciting games ended it's now time for us to enjoy the whole amenities of the resort such as the 2 infinite pools, swim in the beach or just stroll the place. We ate lunch, dinner and breakfast there and I can say that the food was great! Kudos to the chef on the kitchen. I also like how attentive all the employees of Palm beach on serving new food on the buffet table for us hungry tourists. The majority of the dishes served are Filipino delicacies. Here are some dishes that my co-workmate shot during our lunch.

Sinukmani which is comparable to rice cake/biko but this one is tastier because it has ground nuts and I can taste the langka (jack fruit). This dessert is super delicious!

I really enjoyed our team building this year compared last year. The place is awesome, the activities are fun and the food are delicious! What about you? Do you enjoyed your company's outing? Do you have an awesome summer? Why not share your experience in the comment section below.
