She was formerly a managing director of a content marketing agency, an editor-in-chief of an online beauty magazine, and a marketing manager of four beauty brands. Writing is her passion, and this blog serves as a creative outlet where she can write about beauty, travel, food, lifestyle, home, and pets. It’s also an online shop where she sells a curation of unique, local finds. Greta’s Junkyard is literally a dump site of her favorite things!

Played around with @strokesbeautylab’s Velvet Click Sticks. 😍 It has a unique retractable click feature that allows you to use just the right amount of product when applying. It glides so smoothly, too! I thought the formulation would feel heavy because of how pigmented it was, but it felt lightweight—almost as if I was just wearing a lip tint. Infused with Vitamin E, Squalene, and Sunflower Seed, it conditions lips for long-term softness.

Swipe to see the three shades I wore (and please excuse the no suklay lewk, since I was just at home 😂). From Top to Bottom: Contessa, a universal nude; Teresa, a classic nude mauve; and Viper, an intense red cherry. 💋 You can get these at strokes.ph for only P398 each. #LipItUpAnyDay

For those who don’t know, @glamourboxph was the $For those who don’t know, @glamourboxph was the very reason I got into the beauty industry. When they started in 2012, they hired me to be a writer for their beauty blog. It was through them that I was introduced to niche brands like @pixibeautyph, @eyeofhoruscosmetics, and @ofracosmeticsph. At that time, they were known to be the first premiere beauty box subscription service in the country, where Filipinas could discover cult-favorite products. Eventually, Glamourbox also became the exclusive distributor of #PixiBeauty, #OfraCosmetics, and @popbeautyph—which I became the marketing manager of from 2014 to 2016. This November, #GlamourboxPH celebrates its 8th anniversary with an exciting sale on their site (up to 80% off!) plus the All-Stars Anniversary Box, which I immediately had to get my hands on! 💜 The box is priced at P1,495 but the products inside are valued at P3,500. It includes my mom’s all-time favorite toner, Pixi’s Glow Tonic, and Ofra’s Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Sanibel (seen in the picture!), which happens to be my OG liquid lipstick brand. 💄 Aside from these, the box has products from #POPBeauty and @yadahph. Swipe left to see them! 😊 #GlamourboxTurns8 November is ending soon, so visit glamourbox.ph to get their limited edition All-Stars Anniversary Box. I secretly made sure to get mine first before posting about it. 😅$
