Flight Attendant Interview Blues

Aside from my job as a Makeup Artist I also teach English Online. I can say that I am contented with how much I earn, the work load and the scheduling. And for those who are not aware, I am also a full time mom.

I am happy juggling around house chores, online lessons and Makeup bookings because my schedule's pretty much flexible and the tasks are quite manageable. I can even go on a weekend trip with my family whenever I want to. 

But there are a lot going through my head lately, things that bothers me; Like job security, Long-term goals etc. 

On my First year at the University most of the girls I knew back then tried their luck on applying for Cabin Crew roles with international airlines; It was one of the most terrifying, despairing interviews I've experienced. Long lines, rigid interview process and a lot more blood pumping, heart pounding steps to be able to get the job.

I was 18 and confident at the time (and skinny too) lol. So I tried applying for the Cabin crew role for a local airline (Domestic) and unfortunately, I got rejected. My very first job interview (Cebu Pac). The recruitment lady told me that I have yellow teeth and visible moles (beauty marks) on my face, and she said the airline's quite strict with those so, better luck next time.

After two years of desperation, days and nights of routine work outs, giving birth and gaining weight (not too much though)  I tried my luck once more, that time it was with a bigger airline company from the Philippines. (PAL) and unluckily I failed for the second time. I kept asking myself if this Flight Attendant thing isn't for me or should I keep on trying?

And that story was 6 years ago.

So here I go again, tried my luck and I just want to share my story with you and hopefully give tips and techniques on how to ace those Flight attendant interviews and what you need to consider to surpass those dreadful application process.

Will be posting more stories soon!

Been Away

So I've been off blogging world for a couple of months.. Did a couple of things, went to a couple of places and made a couple of good decisions.. I am happy though.. It was fun and been heck of a roller coaster ride.

Wow. So let me share with you what I have gone through and you decide whether it's worth the time and effort or Not :)

Garnier Light Complete -The ultimate whitening moisturizer

There are tons of brands out in the market claiming that they carry the Ultimate whitening cream, moisturizer etc. well to some I agree and to most, I utterly dissent. 

Because homework and reports used to give me puffy and dark under eyes in college, I tend to use Garnier Light Brightening eye roll on religiously then and it was the only product that works for me and for a student eye creams costs a lot. I discovered Garnier Light whitening cream the first time I went gaga over skin care and cosmetics. and it worked wonders not just for me, but for my clients as well.

To tell you the truth, I was reluctant to try whitening products because I have naturally light skin; and I don't think I need it. Well I do have light skin but you'll notice at that time that I have noticeable dark spots a. Garnier light complete whitening cream evens out my skin tone, so i don't have to worry about the appearance of a darker neck or having pimple marks. It tightens pores and makes me feel refreshed and moisturized when i'm out on the sun or on a busy makeup stint. 

Product Claims:

New Garnier Light Complete Multi-Action Whitening Cream 8-HR shine-free acts on dullness, dark spots, excess oil and acne marks. It makes your skin visibly fairer while leaving it perfectly clarified.  

With This Proven Power: 

Enriched with pure lemon essence, known for its exfoliating properties, it helps remove dullness and visibly lightens acne marks.

Enriched with derivative Salicylic acid with anti bacterial* properties, its oil-trapping formula visibly reduces excess oil and shine for 8 hours shine free look (*in vitro test)

Trivia: 

“In vitro” is Latin for “in glass,” this refers to some sort of clinical testing procedure, meaning the results are based on lab testing. :)

Its ultra-light texture is non greasy and absorbs quickly into the skin for an all day comfort and shine-free feeling.

Directions for use: 

Apply it on perfectly cleansed skin, gently massage. Avoid eye area.

How I use Garnier Light Complete Multi-Action Whitening cream:

• Wash your face with lukewarm water and your favorite facial wash
• Use your fingertips to apply the Lightening cream on your face
• Spread the cream all over your face and neck ( I use this as a face primer too when I wear makeup)

How I use the Garnier Light Complete Multi-Action Whitening cream on my Makeup clients:

• Make sure that their face is cleansed and toned
• Apply the cream using a foundation brush (as a face primer)
• Moisturize
• Foundation and concealer
• Powder away! 

  

      Garnier Light Complete has been a part of not just my morning routine but also a part of                                                      my life as an artist.

What I like about the product:

• I love the citrus-y scent
• I sweat a lot especially on the face and neck and whenever I wear it and it doesn't feel greasy or sticky at all.
• It has a matte primer-like finish (which gives us that shine-free look)
• The tube container gives us control over the amount of product we use
• It has a creamy white texture and a thick consistency (so a little amount goes a long way)
• The 20ml tube costs Php 79 only (very reasonable) 
• This is also very handy and chic, so you can take it anywhere with you

UVA/UVB Filter? 

UVA rays (ultra violet A) contributes to those visible signs of aging such as wrinkles, sun spots and loss of skin elasticity. Always remember that UVA rays can penetrate through windows and the UVB (ultra violet B) are the rays that burns. Both UVA and UVB are harmful and we need protection from these kinds of rays. These rays are also known to cause skin cancer. 

I always make it a point that each product I use on my face contains sunscreen ingredients. 

Garnier Light Complete Whitening Cream contains active ingredients and UV Filters that helps protect our skin from the harmful rays of the sun. 

You Will Forever Live in our Hearts Paul Walker

It makes me really sad and teary-eyed as I write about this, This is a tribute to one of my most admired actors in Hollywood. I know a lot of people claiming it and Yes I am one of them, I am the biggest fan of the Fast and the furious flicks since it started in 2001; and the Brian and Dominic team up was one of the things I love about the film. 

When I heard the news about Paul Walker's accident, I was actually having late lunch. It was on the BBC breaking news. I literally choke when I saw Paul's pictures flashing on the screen, I thought it was a hoax, but there's another picture of a car wreck, it was engulfed in flames and the screen seemed to be covered with smoke. My heart beats faster and faster as I listen to the news anchor, but it's confirmed, He's dead. It was devastating. 

Paul appeared on the big screen numerous times and each character was portrayed well.

From the film Flags of our Fathers

From the film Joy Ride

From the film Into the Blue

One of my favorites: Eight Below

We will remember you through these pictures, as it has always been. Your memories will live forever. You're an angel now Paul Walker. Please continue to watch over your family, friends and fans all over the world through God's grace. 

Thank you Paul Walker for the tears and happiness you brought us in every movie you make! You are such an Inspiration and a pure heart.
