I've always wanted to create colorful, fun, and crazy looks since I've learned how to draw and paint. For years, I've been constantly trying to find the best of the best face and body paints to help me do so. But in Macau, it's not far from impossible. From never drying paints to irritations after usage, I've tried every possible body paints available here, until a good friend from Hong Kong recommended I should try Face Slap!.

Hi there! This blogpost was meant to just show you what I've been finding really fun to do lately. If you've been following me on Instagram (which I think you should because I post there a lot more often :3 --> @kateeotd), you probably noticed how invested I am lately with sfx looks, costumes, cosplaying, and just playing dress up in general. My love for makeup and art has grown immensely in the past year and I've just been on a roll! 

A big part of that was when I discovered FaceSlap! face & body paints. They are super easy to work with and have an array of all the colors you could possibly think of! I started with their 12 color face & body paint, and now I've added a few pearl finishes into my collection.

Back at it again with another travel guide here on #KateeOTD. For the past few weeks I've been non-stop editing with the Cebu Vlogs (click here to watch one of them), and so I finally took a break and decided to write this just for you. 1st things 1st, it is NOT my 1st time in Cebu. However, the last time I went there was 7 years ago back in 2012, way before I started blogging. I was 18 years old at the time, yet I could hardly remember anything that we did (except for getting drunk with my sisters in a KTV, accidentally murdering a couple of starfishes, and quickly climbing up the boat because I saw a sea snake during our island hopping). Also, this time I did most of the itinerary so I could say that it still is like a 'beginner's' perspective. Besides, Cebu has changed so much in the past 7 years; a lot of the places we visited wasn't operating yet the last time I was there.

Well enough gibber gabbering, you came here for one reason and one reason only (maybe, I'm not really sure but I'm assuming). You're here to get a 101 on what to do when you're in Cebu. To make it easier and more informative, I took the liberty of separating it in 2 segments:

1. Knowing the basics
2. Forming your itinerary
 - CLICK TO VIEW MY ITINERARY

Oh and don't worry, I'm linking everything that helped me form our whole trip. From tour agencies, to main websites and guidelines. And since I'm such a nice person, you can even view/download our whole itinerary here. Hope it helps! Now let's begin with this Cebu Beginner Guide!

As unbelievable as it may sound, I'm actually someone who doesn't keep up on the latest trends. Whether it's fashion, make-up, food, movies, etc., I just always seem to be hesitant to ride the "trend train" or "follow the crowd". As someone who's often exposed in social media, I admit it is kind of odd that I wouldn't normally follow the current hypes of everyone else in the platforms. Maybe it is just me wanting to be 'cool' in a way. But honestly, I just don't like it when people over-hype things, ESPECIALLY on the internet. The words: viral and trending doesn't mean what they used to anymore, at least in my personal opinion. 

Nowadays, people try to make EVERYTHING trending; it's basically an indicator and an effective marketing tool to be well-known. If I was someone who'd always follow up on trends, I'd feel like I was lying to myself. I'm basically trying to be someone I'm not at that point. Here are some of the things that went viral or trending in the past few years that I didn't hop-on with right away (or ever): Frozen, Bird Box, K-Pop, K-Drama, Migos, Billie Eilish, and big bulky dad shoes like Balenciagas... until recently.

Heya! How are you, dear reader? Oh! And before I forget, Happy March! Although, I still somehow can't let go of February. As I've mentioned in one of my previous post (click here: Entering the Love & Luck Month (2019)), Adrian and I was celebrating our 8th year anniversary in Hong Kong. Not the first time we did, but it was the first time Adrian visited the pretty little Ngong Ping Village. I went there last 2015 with my family and I remembered how amazed I was with the village and Tian Tan Buddha. Since then, I've always wanted to bring Adrian there and now, I finally did! Spoiler alert: he loved it too!

This post is a guide for those who might want to visit Ngong Ping one day. I'll share with you the whole rundown, where we booked our tickets, how much our budget was, and everything else that comes with! So buckle up, keep reading, and see all the beautiful photos we took while we were there because WE TOOK A LOT :) 
There is nothing dreamier than guilt-free, vegan, and amazingly delicious tin cakes! Yep! You heard me, "guilt-free" cakes! Oh, and did I mention each of them had 7-layers of goodness? Macau DreamCake strives to "bake a better world" (hence the title) by providing your sweet tooth with something more... well... healthy. All with retaining the deliciousness you look for in your cakes. However, cakes are not the only thing they sell. Taking the extra mile, Macau DreamCake also has cupcakes, cookies, and truffles to offer! Who says healthy geeks and vegans can't enjoy desserts?

Issa look, issa vibe, but most importantly, it's a Valentine's mood! Let me just go off and start with saying: Happy Valentine's Day dear reader! I won't really go into details about the love season since I've already talked about it in my previous blog post (Go read it here: ENTERING THE LOVE & LUCK MONTH (2019)). Basically, Valentine's Day is much more important to me because it's when Adrian and I celebrate our anniversary. This year marks our eighth year together which is a very long period in my life. All the way from my senior year in high school, up to four whole years in university, and three years into working a full-time job. I'm just happy that I've found the one, hopefully. Also, to those who are (happily or sadly) single, I'm not talking about my love-life to brag. I believe that love will come and all you have to do is wait.

HAPPY FEBRUARY! Which means me and Adrian's Valenversary (yes, if you aren't aware, we're that cliché couple that celebrates our anniversary every Valentine's day) is coming right up! This 2019 we're entering our 8th year together and we've been stronger than ever. Living every precious moment of my life for the last eight years has been the greatest; and not to confirm anything just yet, but him and I are finally planning to take this relationship to the next stage. 
Ohayo mina-san! Damn! It's been a hot minute since I last wrote in this site. I've been so busy with vlogging that I had to stop blogging for a while. But now I'm back, and I'm more than excited to share this whole Japan experience with you all over again. Five months has passed since our Japan trip. We flew from Hong Kong and arrived at Osaka Kansai International Airport (Terminal 2) on August 7th, 2018. It was early in the morning when we landed and I clearly remember how beautiful it was when we saw the blue sky, similar to those in animes. The sun was shining brightly, and the breeze was light. We stayed at the airport for about two hours. First place we chilled at was Starbucks (as usual) and there we started organizing our luggages, had a quick bite and a cuppa, and rented our WiFi pod. We finally took the train towards Fukushima, and from there our Japan journey begins.
