why i want to be a #BlogOPPOlis creator scholar?

What's up, blog?

I'm super excited for the upcoming conference of Nuffnang Philippines which is the Blogopolis, the digital journey. Why? I've been dying to meet my co-bloggers, social media influencers, content creators, media people, and agency figures who will attend the said conference. I'm so ready to hear about their journeys to success and learn from the best content creators in the Philippines (Oh, Lord! Hope to get a selfie with Madam Raiza Contawi). 😢

Anyway, I was happy that OPPO was looking for content creators and that they're giving away tickets if you let them know why you wanted to be a #BlogOPPOlis creator scholar. 

Now, WHY?


First of all, I'm an aspiring blogger. Just started my blog last year and so far it's doing great! With the help of course, of Nuffnang Philippines, and those who sponsored their blogger contests, I can say that it helped me a lot to improve myself in this industry and I'm still willing to learn. Learning never stops from you just winning contests. From you just posting photos on social media. It takes a lot of experiences - experiences that are just waiting for you to share with the world. If I am chosen, those things that I will discover in the future that are going to help the universe might as well be shared with my dear readers through my blog and social media sites. You know, sharing is caring.

Next, promote the saying "DO MORE WITH LESS". Guys, I don't have my own laptop and high-end cameras. I just have my trusty smartphone that's about to die right now and the free use of a computer in the office. I don't have an internet connection in our house too. See? I have nothing but just my passion for writing and in doing graphic design. I just use all the resources available in front of me. Having nothing to start with shouldn't stop you from doing what you love. It takes passion and love in blogging - and everything else will follow. I am currently saving up for a laptop for I know I will be blogging for the rest of my life now (LOL). And the camera? That's next on the list. But since I'm saving for one equipment at a time, will promote how a smartphone can actually be a good tool for your blog photos. Just like how I promote OPPO a lot on my blog if you're just starting like me. We're all in this together - we'll win this fight for doing what you love with less of the equipment that you have.


Lastly, I want to be a #BlogOPPOlis creator scholar because I know this is going to be the start of It' Crissified's digital journey. I am positive that it's going to be an opportunity for me not just to be known in this industry, but also to help more of my co-aspiring bloggers pursue their dreams and journey to the digital world. I believe in the saying that "everything starts from nothing" and if you guys out there who are still in doubt, let's join this conference and let us all know how the best content creators in the Philippines started. Let's all get inspired together and apply what we will learn from them. See you there!

GOSSIP

After a week of using these three babies, I was ecstatic that on day 3, I didn't get any breakouts just like my skin's normal reaction during my first time use. Whenever I use them before I do my makeup for work, I'm glad that my foundation didn't get cakey. The feeling was just light and didn't take too much of my time in doing my daily makeup routine. So much love for these products! 💗
The smell was very light and didn't over power anything that I will put after the Bare Essentials. But my top pick would be the Fixer Cream. It smells nice and it somehow relaxes my face before bedtime. It was just pricey though, but it's worth it!

I'm giving this product a 4.5 star rating!
(And hey, it comes with a beauty mirror for FREE!)
Grab whilst supplies last.
