when vanity strikes
i left the office early yesterday to buy a facial cleanser bestfriend and i use. the one we have was almost empty. inside the fx on my way to landmark, i had this great... great urge to... pamper myself. it has been ages since i last felt that way. i desired it so much that when the fx stopped by a spa in greenbelt, i almost got off. fortunately, i was STILL sane enough to get hold of myself and realize that i don't have enough moolah to gratify my whim. finally, i decided that i save it as a christmas gift for myself. haay sana pasko na.but the urge didn't die down easily i tell you. as i stepped inside the landmark and looked for the originally-planned-cleanser, i saw this whole array of beauty products and suddenly felt the need to use each of them. probably, all this was because of this zit on my right cheek aching to pop out, or because everytime i see my reflection on the mrt glass windows , all i see is this haggard-looking-girl-with-pale-lips-and-limp-hair a.k.a. ngarag.
so there i was, at the point of no return, reading every label of every beauty product that caught my feasting eyes. for a moment, i wished kay, my ever prepped-up officemate, was there to tell me which is which. but realizing it's too late, i tried to remember every beauty product mentioned by ala's sister in her blog about Beauty 101.
and... from the originally-planned-cleanser, i ended up buying... (sorry baby, i know this is off our budget. peace. i love you.)... a handful of "vanitywares" from the basic cleanser-toner-moisturizer combo down to the eyelash curler and body scrub. as the counter lady swiped my credit card, i felt a gush of panic, "dem, what reason will i tell baby why i ended up buying all these stuff? patay ako. there goes my beauty 101..."
but you see... mabait naman si mokong eh (i hope!). so last night, i tried on everything i bought and felt a million bucks when felt the softness of the sheets touching my extra soft skin. haaay...when vanity strikes.
