16 na Magagandang Tanawin sa Pilipinas — Mga Litratong Travel Inspiration!

Huwag na nating i-deny — marami talagang magagandang tanawin sa Pilipinas! Ang pumalag, bawal mag-travel. (Joke lang.)

Pero pag-isipan mong mabuti. Mula sa mala-New Zealand na Vayang Rolling Hills ng sa hilaga, hanggang sa kaduluduluhan ng Tawi-Tawi kung saan makikita ang ating parte ng Coral Triangle, hindi natin maipagkakaila ang ganda ng ating bansa. 

Taglay ang kakaibang kinang ng araw sa bawat alon at agos na makikita mula sa ating mga dalampasigan. At sino ang hindi nahuhumaling sa mga epic sunrise at sunset nating tila obra maestra ng pintor? Ilang drone shots na ang nagsisilbing patunay sa nakakabighani nating tubig dagat, na minsa’y naglalaro sa gitna ng bughaw at berde. 

Sakop ng ating bakod ang ‘di mabilang na bundok, bukid, at islang punong-puno ng buhay. Isama mo na ang mga lungsod na puno ng turista at mga lokal na game na game magpa- picture with matching pogi sign ! Pati na rin ang makulay na kulturang Pinoy — piyesta, mga tradisyon tulad ng pambabatok at paghabi , at maraming pang iba.

Convinced ka na ba? Siguradong oo. Pero baka kailangan mo pa ng kaunting visual aid . Tulad netong mga litratong nagpapatunay na nakaka- in love talaga ang Pinas!

1. Ang linaw ng tubig!

Sabi nga nila, ang Pilipinas ay isang tropical paradise . Sa sobrang linaw ng tubig sa Balabac, Palawan, kita mo na kung ano ang nasa ilalim!

2. Mala- painting na landscape

Siguro sa dinami-rami ng magagandang tanawin ng Pilipinas, mahihirapan kang sabihin kaagad kung saan ito nakunan. Clue: Malapit lang ito sa Maynila! Isa pa? Makikita ito sa Rizal! Sirit? Sige, na nga. Nakapunta ka na bang Masungi Georeserve?

3. Talong mapapatalon ka talaga sa ganda!

Dahil archipelago ang Pilipinas, hindi nakakagulat na marami tayong anyong tubig, tulad ng talon. Mayroong malaki, pero may romance din yung mga hidden gems na makikita mo sa biyahe. Tulad nitong mini waterfall papuntang Cambais Falls sa Badian, Cebu. Pero teka, huwag kang tatalon sa ganyan ka-babaw na tubig, ha. Pang-tampisaw lang ‘yan.

4. Mga bundok na ginawang sining ng ating mga ninuno

Siguradong isang tingin pa lang, alam mo na kung ano at saan ito. Tama, yan ang rice terraces ng Pilipinas na gawang-kamay ng mga sinaunang Ifugao. Mahahanap ito sa Banaue at iyang magandang tanawing nakikita mo ngayon onscreen ay pwedeng-pwede mong puntahan sa Batad! Ano, tara? Saktong pang-barkada trip !

5. Mga kaibigan sa ilalim ng dagat

Maramig diving spots sa Pilipinas! Isa na rito ang Apo Island sa Dumaguete kung saan makikita ang maraming hayop na namumuhay sa ilalim ng karagatan. Tandaan: Huwag manggulo sa ilalim ng dagat. Bahay nila ‘yan, bumibisita ka lang!

6. Ang mga nakakatulalang kulay ng dalampasigan

Oo, dagat ‘yan. At oo, totoong totoo ‘yan. Drone shot ‘yan ng isa sa mga beaches ng Palawan. At ‘yan din yung sinasabi naming tubig dagat na gumigitna sa bughaw at berde. Picture pa lang, parang ramdam na ramdam mo na ang simoy ng hangin. Ang presko!

7. Siyempre, kasama rin ang “ganda” ng pagkain!

Hindi pa kasama ang lasa diyan, ha! Itsura pa lang ‘yan. May mga kakanin sa Pilipinas na binabalot sa dahon, at minsan may dagdag aesthetic appeal pa ito dahil sa pamamaraan ng pagbalot. Lalong nakakagutom — este — nakakaganda, diba?

8. Huwag kalimutan ang mga cute na hayop sa lupa (o kaya nama’y nakalambitin sa puno)

Alam mo ba na ang ang pangalawang pinakamaliit na primate sa buong mundo? Kalimitang kasyang-kasya sila sa ating palad! Nakakalungkot lang isipin na threatened species na ang dahil unti-unti na rin nauubos ang kanilang tirahan. Makikita sila sa mga bukid na maraming tanim at insekto, kaya dapat lang na alagaan natin ang kalikasan!

9. At siempre, ang mga ibon na palipad-lipad sa kalangitan!

Nakakita ka na ba ng Philippine Eagle sa tunay na buhay? Nararapat nga sa kanila ang titulong “haring ibon” ng Pilipinas!

10. Mga kaakit-akit na resort

Isa na rito ang Lakawon Island sa Cadiz, Negros Occidental. May surplus ng photogenic spots dito — tamang tama para sa Instagram! Ano ang paborito mong resort sa Pilipinas? 

11. Kung saan nagsasama ang dagat at buhangin

Sa English, “ Where sand meets the sea ”. Oha! Kadalasang nakikita ito sa mga lugar na may beach at mangroves . Hindi lang naguumapaw ng magagandang tanawin ang Pilipinas; mayaman din tayo sa natural resources !

12. Ang iconic sunset ng Maynila

Minsa’y magulo, maingay, mainit, marumi — pero may kakaibang dating ang Maynila. Namimiss ‘yan ng mga balikbayan at OFW, lalung lalo na ang sunset ng Manila Bay. Tingan mo nga naman kasi. Ang daming kulay! Naalala ko tuloy ang isang balikbayan na nagsabi sa amin na sa bansang tinirhan niya, halos kulay abo lang ang langit. Ang lungkot.

13. Sa ilalim ng buwan…

May ininatago ring ganda ang Maynila tuwing gabi! Kailangan mo lang alamin kung saan titingin.

14. Ang perpektong bulkan

Sa Pilipinas rin mahahanap ang Mayon Volcano na tinatawag na perfect cone dahil sa pagka- symmetrical nito. Alam mo ba na nakapalibot sa bulkang Mayon ang mga munispyo ng Albay? Kaya naman para silang may tig-iisang slice ng pie o pizza . Hating kapatid!

15. At marami pang kakaibang land formations

Tulad ng Chocolate Hills sa Bohol. Bisitahin mo na rin ang mga at heritage churches habang andito ka!

16. Mainit na pagtanggap at nakakahawang ngiti

Huwag nating kakalimutan ang isa sa mga pinakaimportanteng yaman ng Pilipinas — tayong mga Pinoy! Kilala tayo para sa ating mga ngiti at mainit na pagtanggap sa mga bisita. Alam din ng buong mundo na tayo’y hindi natitinag kahit ilang bagyo pa ang pumasok sa Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR). Yan ang #tatakpinoy!

Speaking of PAR , ang tanong: Naikot mo na ba ang ang ating bansa? Hindi ka mawawalan ng magagandang tanawin sa Pilipinas! Maraming seat sale, long weekend at holiday na pwedeng ilaan sa pag-ikot sa Pilipinas kung nagtitipid ka man ng VL (at pera). Kaya’t sana’y naganahan ka ng aming munting photo collection . ‘Pag natuloy ka sa biyahe, tag mo kami, ha? Madali lang kami hanapin sa Instagram: @tripzillaph ! Huwag kalimutan ang hashtag, #tripzillaph, para naman masali namin ang litrato mo sa susunod. Ingat!

Conjugating Verbs in Tagalog: A Guide for Beginners

• by Amiel Pineda

Conjugating verbs in Tagalog involves adding specific affixes to indicate tense and subject, essential for constructing sentences accurately. Understanding MAG and MA verbs is crucial for mastering Tagalog conjugation.

Key Takeaways

• Verb conjugation in Tagalog involves adding specific affixes to the root verb for present and past tense.
• MAG verbs are formed with the MAG prefix and are relatively easy to conjugate. They are essential for fluency in Tagalog and commonly used in everyday conversations.
• UM verbs express spontaneous or unintentional actions and are conjugated by removing the UM prefix in present tense.
• MA verbs have an actor-focus nature and are relatively easy to conjugate. Future tense is formed by adding MA and the first syllable of the root verb.

Understanding Verb Conjugation in Tagalog

Understanding verb conjugation in Tagalog is essential for mastering the language and effectively communicating in various tenses.

In Tagalog grammar, forming the present tense involves adding specific affixes to the root verb, while forming the past tense requires different affixes.

MAG verbs, formed with the MAG prefix, are commonly used and relatively easy to conjugate in future, basic, and imperative forms.

MA verbs, formed with the MA prefix, are also relatively straightforward to conjugate in different tenses.

However, conjugating -IN verbs, which are classified based on singular/plural subjects and various tenses, can be more challenging.

With practice and the right resources, mastering the conjugation of these verbs is achievable.

As you delve into Tagalog verb conjugation, remember that it’s a crucial step towards fluency and effective communication in the language.

Exploring MAG Verbs in Tagalog

Now, let’s explore MAG verbs in Tagalog.

You can form MAG verbs by adding the MAG prefix to the verb, and they’re essential for fluency in Tagalog.

Using MAG verbs is relatively easy, and they’re actor-focus verbs in Tagalog.

Forming MAG Verbs

When forming MAG verbs in Tagalog, you attach the prefix MAG- to the root verb. This affix signals that the verb is in the actor-focus form.

Conjugation rules for MAG verbs are relatively straightforward. To form the future tense, simply add MAG- to the beginning of the root verb. For example, the root verb ‘luto’ (to cook) becomes ‘magluto’ (will cook) in the future tense.

Understanding MAG verbs is essential for grasping Tagalog verb conjugation. They’re commonly used in everyday Filipino conversations, so mastering their formation is crucial. By incorporating MAG- as a verb affix, you can easily express actions in the future tense. This simple addition to the root verb enables you to convey your intentions and actions clearly.

Using MAG Verbs

To effectively use MAG verbs in Tagalog, start by attaching the prefix MAG- to the root verb to indicate the actor-focus form. Conjugating MAG verbs in Tagalog is relatively straightforward.

For the present tense, replace MAG with NAG, and for the past tense, use NAG followed by the root verb. To form the future tense, add MAG at the beginning of the verb and repeat the first syllable of the root verb after MAG.

Understanding MAG verbs is crucial for speaking Tagalog fluently. By mastering the conjugation of MAG verbs, you can confidently express actions in the present, past, and future tenses.

Keep practicing and applying MAG verbs in your conversations to enhance your proficiency in Tagalog.

Examples of MAG Verbs

Exploring MAG verbs in Tagalog, you can easily incorporate them into your everyday conversations to express actions with intention and effort. Conjugating MAG verbs is relatively straightforward, as you simply add the MAG prefix to the root verb to indicate the future tense.

Here are some examples of MAG verbs in Tagalog:

• ‘Mag-aaral’ (will study) – This MAG verb denotes the intention to study in the future.
• ‘Magluluto’ (will cook) – Use this MAG verb when expressing the effort to cook a meal.
• ‘Magbabasa’ (will read) – By using this MAG verb, you can convey the deliberate action of reading something.

Learning Tagalog becomes more accessible when you familiarize yourself with MAG verbs and their conjugation. Incorporating these examples into your conversations will enhance your ability to express intention and effort effectively.

Mastering UM Verbs in Tagalog

Mastering UM verbs in Tagalog is crucial for understanding and expressing spontaneous or unintentional actions in the language.

UM verbs, such as TUMawa (to laugh), UMawit (to sing), and DUMating (to arrive), are intransitive and don’t have a direct object affected by the action.

To conjugate Filipino UM verbs in the present tense, simply remove the UM prefix and use the infinitive form of the verb. For example, ‘TUMawa’ becomes ‘Tumatawa’ (laughing), ‘UMawit’ becomes ‘Umaawit’ (singing), and ‘DUMating’ becomes ‘Dumarating’ (arriving).

Understanding UM verb conjugation is essential for accurately expressing ongoing or contemplated actions. It also lays the groundwork for forming the present tense and using the MAG prefix for future discussions.

Unraveling MA Verbs in Tagalog

Unraveling MA verbs in Tagalog illuminates the actor-focus nature of these verbs in the Filipino language . When conjugating MA verbs, the future tense is formed by adding MA and the first syllable of the root verb.

In the present and past tenses, NA is used instead of NAG. To form the imperative form of MA verbs, simply use MA followed by the root verb. This makes MA verbs relatively easy to conjugate.

Understanding the actor-focus nature and the unique conjugation patterns of MA verbs will help you express actions in the future, present, and past tenses more accurately in Tagalog.

Examining IN Verbs in Tagalog

Alright, let’s talk about the IN verbs in Tagalog.

These verbs can be tricky because of their irregularities and different conjugation patterns.

Examples of common IN verbs include:

• sulat (write)
• basa (read).

In Verb Suffixes

Conjugating -IN verbs in Tagalog involves modifying the verb form based on the subject and tense, with potential irregularities to be aware of. When conjugating -IN verbs, it’s important to understand the role of verb suffixes and how they change the meaning and usage of the verbs.

Here are some key points to consider:

• Suffixes indicate the aspect, mood, tense, and focus of the verb, influencing its conjugation.
• The addition of suffixes to verbs in Tagalog is a crucial aspect of verb conjugation, allowing for a wide range of meanings to be conveyed.
• Understanding the patterns and rules for adding suffixes to verbs is essential for learners of Tagalog to grasp the intricacies of verb conjugation.

Learning about verb conjugation and the role of suffixes is fundamental to mastering Tagalog .

In Verb Conjugation Rules

Understanding the conjugation rules for -IN verbs in Tagalog is essential for mastering the language’s verb forms. When conjugating -IN verbs, you need to consider the subject and the tense. Here’s a guide to help you understand the conjugation rules for -IN verbs in Tagalog:

Mastering these conjugation rules will significantly enhance your proficiency in using -IN verbs in Tagalog.

Handling O to U Verbs in Tagalog

To conjugate O to U verbs in Tagalog, simply replace the O with U in the root verb. For example, ‘luto’ (to cook) becomes ‘luto’ (cooked), and ‘bili’ (to buy) becomes ‘bili’ (bought).

When dealing with UM verbs that end in a consonant, such as ‘luto’ and ‘bili,’ the verb form changes by replacing the final vowel with the letter U. This change indicates a completed action or state, making it crucial to understand O to U verb conjugation in Tagalog.

Practicing this conjugation will enhance your proficiency in speaking Tagalog and help you grasp the essential components of sentence structure . Mastering the handling of O to U verbs is an important step in becoming fluent in Tagalog.

Deciphering I Verbs in Tagalog

You’re about to dive into the topic of deciphering I verbs in Tagalog. Understanding the basic verb forms and common irregular verbs will be crucial for your grasp of this concept.

Let’s break it down and make it easier for you to understand.

Basic Verb Forms

Deciphering I verbs in Tagalog involves understanding the conjugation patterns using prefixes, infixes, and suffixes, which are essential for speaking the language fluently.

When delving into basic verb forms in the Filipino language, it’s important to grasp the imperative form and the tense of the verb. Here’s what you need to know:

• Imperative Form: This form is used to give commands, requests, or directives. It’s crucial to understand how verbs change in the imperative form to effectively communicate desires or instructions in Tagalog.
• Tense of the Verb: Verbs in Tagalog indicate the time of the action. Understanding the different tenses and how they’re formed is fundamental for constructing meaningful sentences and expressing yourself accurately in various contexts.
• Conjugating Verbs: The process of conjugating verbs involves altering the form of the verb to indicate aspects such as tense, mood, person, and voice. Mastering the conjugation patterns is pivotal for fluency in Tagalog .

Common Irregular Verbs

Mastering the imperative form and tense of the verb lays the groundwork for understanding common irregular verbs in Tagalog, particularly those with unique conjugation patterns.

In Filipino verbs, the tense of an UM or MAG is used, and object-focus verbs may have irregular conjugations, requiring special attention.

Understanding these irregular verbs is crucial as they deviate from the standard conjugation rules.

Some commonly used verbs in Tagalog have irregular conjugations, which differ from regular verb patterns. Learning and practicing these irregular verbs is essential for more accurate and natural-sounding speech. Exposure to irregular verbs can aid in mastering their conjugations, allowing for improved communication in Tagalog.

Keep practicing to familiarize yourself with these irregular verb patterns and enhance your proficiency in conjugating Tagalog verbs.

Tackling Irregular Verbs in Tagalog

Understanding irregular verbs in Tagalog requires consistent practice and exposure to various contexts to grasp their unique conjugation patterns. When tackling irregular verbs, consider these strategies:

• Memorize Irregular Forms : Learn irregular verb forms separately from regular verbs to avoid confusion.
• Practice Conjugating Verbs : Regularly practice conjugating irregular verbs in different tenses and moods to become familiar with their patterns.
• Exposure to Tagalog Words : Immerse yourself in Tagalog-speaking environments to encounter irregular verbs in natural conversations and contexts.

Navigating Verb Aspects in Tagalog

Navigating the various aspects of Tagalog verbs involves understanding their prefixes, infixes, and suffixes, which play a crucial role in indicating tense and focus. For beginners learning to conjugate verbs in Tagalog, it’s essential to grasp the concept of actor-focus verbs.

MAG verbs are commonly used and relatively simple to conjugate, with forms for the future, basic, and imperative tenses. Similarly, MA verbs, also actor-focus verbs, follow a similar pattern with specific affixes for future, present, past, and imperative tenses.

However, -IN verbs, though challenging to conjugate, can be mastered by familiarizing yourself with common examples, memorizing conjugation patterns, and practicing in different tenses.

Understanding these verb aspects in Tagalog is fundamental for building a strong foundation in the language.

Focusing on Verb Focus in Tagalog

Delving into the nuances of verb focus in Tagalog is essential for building a strong understanding of the language’s grammar.

Understanding verb focus is crucial for conjugating verbs in Tagalog according to their focus, as it impacts the structure and meaning of sentences. By focusing on the verb’s syllable, you can identify whether it’s an actor-focus or object-focus verb.

In Tagalog, commonly used verbs are actor-focus verbs, which emphasize the doer of the action. This distinction is vital for clear communication and conveying the intended message effectively in Tagalog.

Mastering verb focus allows you to express subtle differences in meaning and accurately convey who’s performing the action in a sentence.

If you want to know more about the culture, history, and Tagalog language, we have more information for you!

History of the Philippines and the Tagalog Language

Despite the country’s turbulent history, Filipinos still managed to become one of the friendliest and warmest people in Asia. Aside from being a travel destination because of its food and beautiful beaches, the Philippine archipelago also attracts tourists through its colorful history.

Before its discovery by the Spanish empire, the country was populated by rival tribes, which all had distinct traditions, gods, and datu (chieftains or rulers). Unfortunately, earlier records regarding their culture were destroyed as the Spaniards colonized the country. With the land ruled by Spanish governors for more than 300 years, Filipinos were able to adopt its language, religion, customs, and even naming traditions.

Additionally, countries like the United States and Japan have also targeted the country due to its tactical position. It has become one of the major maritime trade routes, which is why the locals are well-versed in different languages and are familiar with other countries’ traditions.

As the way of living changed over time, the Philippines’ language has also been under consistent development. While Tagalog is considered the official language, you may be surprised to know that there are also about 170 regional dialects. Some of the examples are Cebuano, Chavacano, Waray, and Hiligaynon.

Culture of the Philippines

The country’s unique yet diverse culture is deeply rooted in the customs and traditions of its foreign colonizers and its neighboring countries. Due to its strategic location and a humble number of islands, history proves that the Philippines has always been part of the trade route of other nationalities such as Malays, Arabs, Chinese, and even Westerners. And since it is often visited, the locals have grown to love, learn, and ultimately adopt the cultures, dialects, cuisine, and even languages of these foreign visitors.

For instance, scattered all over the country are different religious monuments, mosques, and shrines in the hopes of catering to the varied religious communities existing in the country. While it is true that most of the Filipinos are baptized as Catholics, there are still a considerable number of people who come from different religions. The country and the government fully recognize this by proclaiming specific holidays for each!

Despite having an intense blend of traditions, Filipinos developed distinct qualities that set them apart. For instance, even today, the locals (along with their extended families) still put a premium on joining community festivals as this is an opportunity for them to show appreciation towards music, fashion and art, food, and religion.

What Is The Tagalog Language?

You might be wondering why the Philippines does not seem to have its own writing system, unlike other Asian countries. Well, to be honest, the country has its old writing system called “Baybayin.” While the origins of Baybayin are still unclear even today, it can be noted that the script is influenced by Proto-Sinaitic script. This 14th-century writing was rampantly used in Luzon back in the 16th -17th century, but it has somehow lost its popularity as the locals learned about the English.

Note : In 2018, the Baybayin is slowly being revived by the country, so some of the busiest places in Manila are adapting Baybayin translations in government signages. As a tourist, you do not have to worry since about 90% of signage are still in English.

Tagalog Language Structure

Ready to speak Tagalog? To navigate the Philippines like a pro, allow us to share with you the basics, such as the Tagalog alphabet and sentence structure.

Tagalog Alphabet

What makes Tagalog an easy language to learn is that its alphabet is reasonably easy to memorize. Each letter is called titik or letra , and each of them represents a spoken sound that is directly similar to the English alphabet. The modern Filipino alphabet holds over 28 letters: a 26-letter set from the Latin alphabet, one special Spanish “Ñ” ( /ɲ/ or sounded as “enye”), and the Tagalog digraph “Ng” ( /ŋ/ as the “ng” in words like “sing,” “length,” and “thing”).

Tagalog Sentences

Compared to English, the Tagalog sentence stricture can be deemed as somewhat flexible. To form basic sentences in the Tagalog language, you may use the structure “Adjective +Subject/Pronoun.” For instance, you may simply say Maganda si Beng , which is literally translated as “Beautiful is Beng.” Another example is Naiinitan ako , which literally translates to “Feeling hot me.”

Of course, you may also use the classic SVO agreement to make sentences like Ako ay pagod , which means “I am tired” in English.

Tips to Learn Tagalog Fast

Learning any language entails that one must put effort and set aside time to actually read, write, listen, and converse using the target language. Scientifically, it is found that if you will set aside time and immerse yourself in the language, you are trying to learn (may it be through music, movies, or apps) every single day, then there is a huge chance that you will become proficient in no time.  To speed things us as you learn Tagalog, we listed three major tips below:

• Use mobile apps . Unlock the Tagalog language by consistently allowing yourself to learn systematically through dedicated language apps and websites.

Filipino Travel Phrases to Enhance Your Travel Experience

There is no doubt you have done your research about the Philippines and know how rich its culture is and how stunningly beautiful its tourist spots are. As an archipelago with over 7,000 islands, the Pearl of the Orient Seas (as it is commonly called), the Philippines is one of the best countries to visit in Southeast Asia . However, beyond knowing which places to visit, which hotels to stay, and what delicacies to eat, you need to be armed with basic Tagalog phrases for travel to truly enjoy your stay in the country.

Sure, you can just speak English when communicating with the locals, since most will understand you. But what if you happened to get stuck in a particular situation and the person you asked for help from didn’t understand any English? In any case, it is still to your advantage to learn basic Filipino words and phrases to help you get around when traveling in the Philippines.

This guide will teach you Filipino travel phrases that you can use when conversing with the locals, commuting via taxi or train, shopping, and dining at restaurants. You will also learn more important expressions, such as those you’ll need when asking for directions or calling for help during an emergency. Finally, you will learn basic expressions when complimenting or praising someone using the Tagalog language .

The Philippines is one of the best countries to visit in Southeast Asia.

• Basic Expressions
• Transportation
• Restaurants
• Asking For and Giving Directions
• Emergencies
• Phrases for Giving Compliments
• Useful Phrases to Go through Language Problems
• How FilipinoPod101 Can Help

1. Basic Expressions

Your efficiency in using Filipino travel phrases will be determined by how familiar you are with basic Filipino phrases , such as greetings, polite phrases, and other general expressions. This section will focus on just that. Here, we have a list of essential words, phrases, and expressions you’ll need to initiate a conversation with the locals as you visit various beautiful spots in the Philippines.

1 – Polite Expressions

Filipinos place a lot of emphasis on politeness. When meeting with the locals, it’s important to communicate in a polite tone. You’ll make a good impression if you are familiar with the following polite expressions:

Take note that the Filipino language doesn’t have a word for “please,” but one word that would convey the same expression would be pakiusap , which means “plea” or “request.” Here’s an example: 

• Pakiusap, tulungan niyo po ako. (“Please, help me.” )

In most cases, you can simply attach paki before a verb to mean that you are making a request:

• Pakisabi sa kanya na tumawag ako . (“Please tell her that I called,”)

2 – General Expressions

Nakakaintindi ako ng Tagalog. (“I can understand Tagalog.”)

2. Transportation

Not including jeepneys, the three primary modes of transportation within Manila are taxi, bus, and train. Taxis are the most convenient option when you’re simply moving from one district to another. Buses, on the other hand, are for when you need to visit a different city or nearby province. As for rail transportation, it’s the perfect choice if you want to avoid heavy traffic and get to your destination fast.

If you are taking the taxi, here are a few common Tagalog phrases for your convenience.

When taking the taxi…

Meanwhile, here are phrases when you need to take the bus.

When taking the bus…

Finally, here are some phrases you will find helpful when you’re taking the train.

When taking the train…

3. shopping.

Only a couple of kilometers apart, Quiapo and Divisoria are the two best places to do bargain shopping when you’re in Manila. Quiapo used to be a center for trade and commerce , while Divisoria is dubbed as the Budget Shopping Capital of the Philippines . Today, Quiapo is known for cheap electronics, while Divisoria is considered the best place to go shopping for very affordable clothes. 

One of the distinct characteristics of Filipino shopping is a practice called pagtatawad , which refers to bidding, or more appropriately, haggling. Whether you’re shopping for fashion accessories in Quiapo or for cheap household items in Divisoria, you need to learn a Tagalog shopping expression or two to help you get the best deals.

Pwede bang tumawad? (“Can I get a discount?”)

4. Restaurants

Whether you’re dining at a fancy restaurant or eating at a karenderia (a Filipino term used to refer to a food stall with a small seating), it’s good to be familiar with basic expressions to use when ordering food or simply letting your companion know that you enjoyed the food.

Most restaurants in the Philippines, whether fine dining or not, have staff who take customers’ orders. The staff takes your order, you wait ten to fifteen minutes to be served, you enjoy your meal, and you pay when you’re done. The following are a few basic phrases you can use when eating at a restaurant.

Things are a bit different when you’re eating at a karenderia . The experience in such places is referred to as turo-turo , which literally means “point-point.” Small fast food restaurants characterized by this experience are also referred to as turo-turo . That’s because when you’re eating at these places, the food is usually displayed on glass shelves, and you simply tell the staff which one you’d like to have by pointing at the food .

5. Asking For and Giving Directions

There’s been a trend among travelers in the past few years of getting lost while traveling. It’s called the art of getting lost . The idea is that the exploration of new places becomes more fulfilling when we lose ourselves in the process and only choose to be found when we’re ready. Indeed, not having an itinerary or a map when you’re visiting a new city adds a lot to the thrill. 

However, at the end of the day, you will still have to return to your hotel or find the nearest restaurant so you can eat. With that, you’ll need to be familiar with the basic words and expressions to use when asking for directions. In the same manner, you also need to be ready to give a response when it’s your turn to point a fellow traveler in the right direction. Here are a few phrases to familiarize yourself with.

When asking for directions…

When giving directions….

Diretsuhin mo lang ang daan na ito… (“Just go straight this way…”)

6. Emergencies

Having an emergency is the last thing you want when you’re touring a new place. But if worse comes to worst, it would be to your advantage to know a few native words and phrases so you can easily get anyone’s attention in case you need help. Take a look at some of the most practical expressions you’ll need whenever you need help during an emergency.

7. Phrases for Giving Compliments

Filipinos aren’t that good when it comes to receiving compliments. The good news is that we are learning. The key is to show that you are sincere when complimenting or trying to flatter someone. Here are some basic phrases to use when you want to praise someone or show your appreciation.

8. Useful Phrases to Go through Language Problems

The best way to overcome language barriers is to become proficient in a language you’re trying to learn. If you’re still on your way to mastering Filipino, here are some useful phrases to help you clear things up when communicating with a local starts to become a bit complicated.

Nakakaintindi ka ba ng Ingles? (“Can you understand English?”)

• Pagmamahal mo parang sweldo ko, di ko man lang naramdaman.

This is just in preparation for the next part of this hugot series. Hugot about work. LOL!

• Sayang ang plano, kung di naman magkakatuluyan.

This is you telling yourself that there is hope. LOL!

• Wag basta magtiwala sa di ukulele.

Yeah, don’t talk to strangers. Don’t you dare fall in love with someone na kakikilala mo lang. Wag maharot. LOL! Siya’y di ukulele. LOL!

Hugot lines on Travel

Well, since I am a travel blogger let’s go for the hugot lines that are closest to me, these are hugot about travel but in a way it is also related to love because we can mix travel and love right?

• Minsan ang tao parang lugar, hindi na dapat balikan.

Yown! The times when we had a bad and painful experience that we’ve learned our lessons that we’ll never do it again. It’s the same with having a painful experience with a person whether your ex or a friend, that person will be like a place that you don’t want to visit again.

• Friends lang tayo, walang Malaysia

Funny right? The first time I saw this hugot line, I couldn’t help but smile or even laugh a bit. This is just a product of the creative minds of Pinoys that they were able to incorporate the country Malaysia with line that reminds everyone that they shouldn’t be assumero at assumera because this is all about friendship, walang Malaysia.

• Taga Baguio ka ba? Because you’re so cold.

Hahaha! A question that you’d want to ask him or her, who suddenly turned cold on you.

• Ingat ka, marami nang pa-fall ngayon.

This is just a simple reminder to those who easily gets attached to someone and even to the extent of falling in love. There are some who just want to make you experience the “kilig” but has no plans of getting serious.

• Sa limatik ka na nga lapitin, pinagtabuyan mo pa (Faie)

Another funny hugot line for mountaineers, perfect to those who are hopelessly waiting for forever. Hahaha!  You know limatik , that small creature that sticks to your skin and even sucks blood. Try to climb mountains during rainy season, you’ll encounter them.

• Yung love story natin parang flight ko, akala ko delayed lang yun pala canceled na. – Gra Castro Barrera

Another story of someone with a broken heart, a love that is comparable to a canceled flight.

• The journey of a thousand miles begins pag may pera ka. Kaya mag-ipon ka.

A story of an avid traveler, someone who wants to pack his back and go but has no enough money. This just affirms the fact that traveling needs fund, so if you want to travel, plan it properly and save.

• Sana piso fare pa rin. Piso fare na lang. Piso fare na lang ulet! (Jeni Tianzon)

Getting some hugot from the movie, One More Chance. I think no more explanation needed.

• Ang pag-ibig parang itinerary. Madalas hindi nasusunod.

Come on, it’s true. It’s very rare that we actually follow our itinerary. But that’s the good thing about traveling , the spontaneity of it.

• Buti pa kay manong tricycle driver, 25 pesos lang special kana (Faie)

A traveler who yearns for someone who makes her feel special. A hugot that was creatively compared to a tricycle ride.

• Nag camping may dalang mascara, BB cream, CC cream, eyeliner, lipstick, eye liner, li plumper, Pucha gusto maging Dyosa ng kagubatan

We all have a friend like that. Hahaha! It’s like, hey are you really hiking a mountain? Seriously?

• Ingat sa Cliff diving. Delikado ang ma-fall lalo na kung walang sasalo sayo. (Paul Derick Mendoza)

A reminder again to guard your heart. It’s hard to fall for someone who is not ready to catch you. Hahaha! Let’s accept the fact that when we travel, we’ll meet new people. Some will be your friends, but there are some who can possibly be more than friends. The thing is some of them just wants to enjoy your company but not really want to be your lover. ouch .

• Kung yung weather nga pabago-bago. Feelings mo pa kaya? (Aaron Mercado)

A painful reality that in any relationship, one might just change and fall out of love. Ouch. A love that can be comparable to our weather.

• Kung mahal mo ko, wag mo akong Kazakhstan.

Another hugot that will definitely put a smile on everyone. It’s just amazing the wit and humor of Pinoys.

• Mabuti pa ang bundok inakyat mo, eh yung pag-akyat ng ligaw sakin kelan mo gagawin?

The girl who has a crush on you is telling you this. Now, are you going to pretend that you’re numb and didn’t even hear it? Or is it the right time to open your hearts and even consider that this girl is also worthy of your love?

• Buti pa yung guide, jahit agod na hindi ako iniwan. Ikaw, hindi naman kita pinagod pero bakit mo ko binitawan? (Paul Derick Mendoza)

Why? Why did you leave him/her? This is just the simple question of this hugot. Why? You’re tired of everything? Look at Kuya guide, he’s even more exhausted than anyone that he never gave up. LOL!

• Don’t be afraid of death, be afraid of an unlived life.

This hugot sums it all. What are you waiting for? Right time to embark on that journey? Right time to climb that mountain. There’s no right time but Now. As the saying goes, it’s about the experiences that matter at the end of the day.

• Sabi mo dollar lang ang ipagpapalit mo. Bakit pati ako?

So do I have to explain further why? This is for the broken hearts, asking their beloved half, why?

• Buti pa ang travel mo kaya mong planuhin. Ako kaya? Kelan mo paplanuhing mahalin? (Ponga Sampang)

This is for those who are hoping that their love and admiration will be reciprocated. Those who are even wondering why you have the time and effort to plan your travel, but me, when are you planning to finally love me? LOL!

• Basta text kita later, male-late na KUWAIT!

Just something to make you smile. Another product of Pinoy’s creative minds.

• Ang usapan natin “Leave no trace,” pero bakit ang sakit-sakit pa rin? (Aaron Mercado)

As an Traveler I can practice “Leave no Trace” by heart, but when it comes to love, why it is so hard? LOL!

• Buti pa ang bagyo, may pag-asa

This is him/her, finally giving up and losing hope for that chance for your love. Awww!

• Yung pag-akyat ng bundok parang tayo, nakakapagod.

When you hear your love saying this, you gotta be worried and step up your game. Relationship should be loving and inspiring, definitely not exhausting. Agree?

• Sa lahat ng napuntahan ko, ikaw lang ang gusto kong balik-balikan (Kab Fabito)

I’m wondering what did you do to make him/her long for you this way? You should’ve have done something great. LOL!

• Pag nagmahal ka dapat SAGADA

Don’t listen to them that you should leave something for yourself. When you love, you gotta give it all. LOL!

• Kung tent tayo, ikaw ang pole. Because I can’t stand without you.

It’s like saying I can’t live without you the mountaineer way. Hahaha! Very creative.

• Ang lamig dito sa taas. Kasing lamig ng puso mo. (Michael Kay)

Why, why are you so cold? As cold as the temperature at the top of a mountain, in Cordillera. LOL!

• Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday then Someday.

Whatever you’ve planning to do all this years, there’s no someday. There’s no right time. You got to do it NOW.

• Sabi mo, “Laro tayo”. Akala ko “Surfing” yun pala “Feelings”. (Czareena Malasig)

Oh my! This is the game that we all are not happy to play!

• Hanggang miss you all nalang ba tayo sa Group Chat?

To all our busy and “drawing” friends. LOL!

Hugot lines on Work

I know a lot of you are stressed with not only workload but all the drama and politics in the corporate world. At times, hugot lines can be a breath of fresh air that can ignite laughter because not only you can relate to it, but also it is a way for you to release that stress.

Here are just some of the hugot lines that have become popular among workers and corporate slaves.

• “Buti pa ang pamasahe ng tren tumaas. Sweldo ko na lang ang hindi.”

This is for those who have been working for years in the company but never experienced any pay increase. Well, if you’re working in a small company that earns little, you have the option to look for better salary. If you’re working in a multinational company and it is obvious that the company is earning yet the management’s least priority is its people, this hugot is for you!

• “Talo mo pa ang straw sa sobrang kasipsipan.”

Oh my, we all have that kind of co-worker. Someone who will do everything to please the boss, to the extent that he is willing to kiss the boss’ ass. It’s annoying right? because you know that this kind of co-worker will always be on the side of management. He is always willing to sacrifice someone or throw a co-worker under the bus for the advancement of his career.

• “Ang trabaho ko hindi nauubos pero ang suweldo ko, konting-konti na lang!”

Popularized by a line in a local movie, this hugot line also suits those who are overwork but underpaid. If you can relate to this hugot, well you have to do something.

• “Revisions ba ‘ka mo? Ba’t ‘di ko i-revise ang mukha mo?”

With our past jobs, we’ve experienced this boos. You know those who couldn’t make up his mind and indecisive. Those who keeps on revising your work but at the end of the day he will realize that your original version was the best. Haay…

• “Hindi dahil may karapatan ka minsang maging t*nga ay aaraw-arawin mo na.”

Bad. I suggest you to be patient especially if the co-worker is new. Give them time to learn. But if you have a co-worker who keeps on repeating his mistake, go back to his boss. It’s just a matter of mentoring.

• “I’m not disappointed, since I don’t expect anything from you.”

Sometimes it is good not to expect too much. Hahaha!

• “Move on? Why don’t I just move on from this job?”

Whoah! I know you’ve had enough but don’t be impulsive with your decision. You’re not rich. You need a job to pay your bills. If you want to move on with your job, plan it carefully. Don’t make impulsive decisions.

• “Hindi pangako ang tawag sa promotion na ‘di natutupad. Ang tawag doon, ‘paasa.’”

This are for those employees who are about to leave the company but the boss promised a promotion so they stayed. And then, two years have passed, no promotion happened. Hahaha!

• “Huwag mong ipilit ang sarili mo sa promotion na hindi dapat sa ‘yo.”

This is for a co-worker na feeling. Feeling magaling Hahaha! Those who are too ambitious but lacks hardwork and drive.

• “Dahil sa sobrang traffic sa EDSA, naniniwala na ako sa forever.”

I know commute and traffic can be very exhausting. You know that feeling when you just arrived at the office but you’re already tired because of traffic.

• “Umagang Mala- biyaheng probinsya.”

You know those times when you’re commuting in the morning going to work. With all those traffic and pollution, you ask yourself, “is this gonna be me life forever?” Hugot!

• “Gusto ko ng kape, yung matapang yung kaya akong ipaglaban.”

Who doesn’t want this? I also love coffee, but yeah,  it would be better to have a stronger one, yung ipaglalaban ka . LOL!

• “Kamusta work mo ATM  “

Something to make you smile. LOL!

• “Para kang sweldo ko, di mo namalayang wala na pala.”

Yes, you can always mix work with love, right? Even with hugot lines.

• “Ready na kami for Monday.”

We’re ready for another week of battle.

• May pag-asa ang tag-ulan, yung taghirap kaya?

Perfect for those rainy weather, then you realize you don’t have money. Hahaha!

• Presidente natin bago na, ideas mo luma pa rin.

It’s your boss, telling you that you need some new ideas. Wala nabang iba? You need to step up your game.

• Jeep nga umaalis, pag napupuno. Tao pa kaya?

You’re on the verge of giving up, and for any reasons you may have, at the end of the day, it is your decision. It is your life. If you feel that this is a risk that you can afford, well by all means do it.

• Buti pa nga files sinesave mo, yung relasyon natin?

Once again, it’s when you mix work with love. Hahaha! But honestly, if you don’t want to lose this precious relationship, do something.

• Monitor kaba? Kai parang ang sarp mong titigan magdamag.

When you hope that “crush” can be just a monitor that you can look at for your entire shift. Hahaha!

• Keyboard kaba? Kasi type na type kita

Okay, here’s another one for work crush hahaha

• Para kang aplikante ko, nangakong darating hindi naman.

This is the hugot of our HR colleagues. Well, if you’re asking me, this is still better than what most HR do, when they said that they will give you some updates about your application, and yet they never call at all. Hahaha!

• Ballpen nga nawawala, feelings pa kaya?

This is her, explaining why she fell out of love. Hahaha!

• Sick leave. Dahil nasaktan ako nung iniwan mo ko.

It’s okay to call in sick, but please after your rest, stand up. Life goes on. LOL!

• Keep calm and just resign.

I don’t need to explain this further. LOL!

Zamboanga City Travel Guide & Itinerary (Tagalog)

Pagdating sa makukulay na destinations sa Pilipinas, isa sa mga unang maiisip mo ay ang Zamboanga . Hindi lang dahil sa makulay na vinta na naging simbolo na ng region na ito, pero dahil na rin sa marami pang bagay na nagbibigay kulay sa probinsya. Mula sa rosy hues ng Pink Beach, bright orange na curacha crabs, hanggang sa makukulay na costumes sa Hermosa Festival, siguradong hindi magiging dull ang trip mo kapag nagpunta ka dito.

Makulay rin ang history at food scene ng Zamboanga kaya marami talagang attractions na puwedeng puntahan at mga pagkain na pwedeng tikman. Kaya kung nag-pplano ka na mag-travel ulit for the first time in over two years, isa ito sa mga destinations na puwede mong puntahan. May beach, mga isla at iba pang natural attractions, heritage sites, at masasarap na pagkain na siguradong maeenjoy mo.

Nasa post na ito ang mga information na kailangan mo para magplano ng trip to Zamboanga City. Nandito ang mga puwede mong puntahan, kainan, at iba pang kailangan mong malaman para gumawa ng itinerary.

WHAT'S IN THIS GUIDE?

Understanding Zamboanga City

Ang “Zamboanga” ay tumutukoy sa maraming geographical areas. Ang Region IX ay tinatawag rin na Zamboanga Peninsula at binubuo ng mga probinnsya ng Zamboanga del Norte, Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga Sibugay, at ng limang mga city. Ang limang city na ito ay Dapitan, Dipolog, Pagadian, Isabela de Basilan, at ang pinaka malaking urban hub sa region, ang Zamboanga City.

Sa airline industry kapag sinabing Zamboanga, madalas ay ang city ang tinutukoy dahil dito located ang Zamboanga Internation Airport (ZAM) . Para malinaw, sa guide na ito, kapag sinabing Zamboanga, ang tinutukoy din ay ang city.

Sinasabing nanggaling ang pangalan ng Zamboanga sa Samboangan na ang ibig sabihin ay daungan. Ang ibang sources naman ay sinasabing ang pangalan ng lugar ay mula sa Indonesian jambangan na ang ibig sabihin ay lugar ng mga bulaklak kaya tinatawag din ang Zamboanga na “City of Flowers” .

Malalim ang history ng Zamboanga City bilang settlement. Mate-trace ito mula noong 12th century noong dumating ang mga Subanon sa lugar. Sa paglipas ng panahon, marami na ring mga Tausug, Yakan, Sama-Banguingui at Sama-Bajau ang lumipat dito mula sa Basilan at Sulu archipelago. Islam ang naging dominant religion dito. Noong dumating ang panahon ng pananakop ng mga Kastila, ginawa nilang military stronghold sa Mindanao ang Zamboanga na naging dahilan ng pagdating ng Christian settlers dito.

Ang mahabang history nito ay nagbunga ng pagkakaroon ng complex at eclectic mix ng Zamboanga. Malapit rin ito sa Malaysia, Brunei, at Indonesia kaya maraming mga influences ang nakakapasok dito. Makikita ito sa culture, languages, religions, at cuisines dito.

Ngayon, ang Zamboanga ay isang highly urbanized chartered city . Politically independent ito at nagsisilbing economic, educational, at cultural hub ng region.

Ito ang ilang mahalagang ipormasyon about Zamboanga na kailangan mong malaman bago ang iyong trip.

• Location: Zamboanga City, Region IX (Zamboanga Peninsula)
• Nicknames: Asia’s Latin City, City of Flowers
• Language: Chavacano o Cabacano ang most common na ginagamit dito, isang Spanish-based Creole na mix ng Spanish at ibang native lnguages.
• Modes of Payment: Cash. Marami ring establishments na tumatanggap ng credit cards at GCash, pero karamihan ay mas preferred pa rin ang cash. Siguraduhing magdala ng cash lalo na para sa transportation at small purchases.

How to get to Zamboanga City

Ang Zamboanga City at mga kalapit na municipalities ay ginagamit ang Zamboanga International Airport (ZAM) na gateway din papuntang Basilan. Most Tawi-tawi-bound travelers ay nag-ttransfer din sa Zamboanga Airport dahil walang direct flights mula Luzon o Visayas papuntang Bongao.

Karamihan ng local airlines ay may flights mula Manila papuntang Zamboanga. Pero kung naghahanap ka ng affordable fares, may daily flights to Zamboanga City ang AirAsia . Ang travel time ay 1 hour and 40 minutes.

Bawat booking ay may complimentary na 7kg carry-on baggage allowance. Kung weekend trip lang ang balak mo, posibleng enough na ito. Pero kung gusto mo ng mas comfortable na biyahe, puwede ka ring mag-add ng Value Pack na may kasamang 20kg check-in baggage allowance, standard selection, meal, at Tune Protect insurance (para sa baggage delay at 1 hour on-time guarantee protection). Mayroon din silang Premium Flex kung saan may option kang palitan ang date at time ng iyong flight up to two times.

Kung manggagaling ka sa Manila, ang flights ng AirAsia papuntang Zamboang ay nag-ooperate sa NAIA Terminal 4.

Upon Arrival at the Airport

Paglapag sa airport, didiretso kayo sa Arrival area kung saan ninyo kukunin ang check-in baggage (kung meron).

Pagdating sa Arrival Hall, makikita niyo na may tent kung saan sila nag-checheck ng entry requirements. As of writing, tinatanong nila kung saang parte ng Pilipinas ka galing at tsaka nila titignan ang requirements mo. Make sure to double check the entry requirements to Zamboanga at ang protocols depende sa origin mo bago ang iyong trip.

Zamboanga Airport to City Center

Nasa loob ng city center ang Zamboanga airport kaya hindi problema ang mahabang travel time. Pagkalabas ng airport, sasalubungin ka ng mga taxi drivers na nag-ooffer ng ride papunta sa city. Puwede ka ring pumunta sa labas ng airport gate kung saan nakapila ang mga tricycle.

Ito ang mga rate:

• Taxi: Flagdown rate, P40. Kung malapit sa City Hall, nasa P80 ang fare.
• Tricycle: P20 for the first km, P5 per additional km

Pero madalas, nakikipag deal ang mga driver para sa presyo. Usually, nasa P150-200 ang sinisingil nila.

Where to Stay in Zamboanga

Ang mga hotel sa Zamboanga ay concentrated sa dalawang key areas: sa city center na malapit sa seaport , at sa area malapit sa airport . Hindi nalalayo ang dalawang areas na ito sa isa’t isa at parehas na accessible. May mga budget-friendly options din in both areas, at maraming dining at shopping establishments sa paligid. Pero isang dapat iconsider ay ang traffic during rush hour. Dahil dito, mamili ng area na pag-sstayan based sa inyong itinerary.

Kung ang pakay mo sa Zamboanga ay puntahan ang Pink Beach o mag day trip sa Basilan, mas magandang mag-stay sa gitna ng city. Kung ang gusto mo namang puntahan ay nasa north ng city tulad ng Once Islas at Merloquet Falls o kung ayaw mo lang mag-worry na baka ma-miss mo ang flight mo pauwi, mas ideal na mag-stay sa area na malapit sa airport.

Ito ang ilang hotels na puwede niyong i-book para sa Zamboanga trip ninyo:

• Grand Astoria Hotel. Check Rates & Availability!

How to get around Zamboanga City

By public transportation.

Pinaka common na modes of transportation sa city ay ang jeep, tricycle, at taxi. Pero kung ayaw mo na isipin pa ang mga ruta ng jeep, ang pinaka-convenient ay ang tricycle o mas kilala bilang “tricy” sa parteng ito ng Mindanao.

Ito ang approved tricycle fare:

• P20 para sa first kilometer
• P5 per succedding km.

Pero in reality, hindi lahat ng tricycle drivers ay sumusunod sa fare matrix. To give you an idea, usually, nasa P40-50 per person ang bayad para sa tricycle ride. Kung mas malayo tulad ng papuntang seaport mula sa airport, umaabot sa P75 per person ang pamasahe.

May mga taxi rin, pero hindi ito ganoon karami. Ang flagdown rate ay P40 .

Ano man ang piliin mo na mode of transportation, siguraduhin na iconsider ang rush hour traffic lalo na kung may scheduled flight ka o boat ride.

• A Non-Drying Lip Stain That Actually Lasts

This story first appeared on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, in  The Strategist Beauty Brief ,  a weekly newsletter in which our beauty writers share their must-tries, can-skips, and can’t-live-withouts. But we liked it so much we wanted to share it with all of our readers. If you want more first impressions of buzzy launches, quick takes on what’s trending on TikTok and Instagram, and deep dives into the week’s best beauty launches, sign up  here .  The Strategist Beauty Brief  is delivered every Wednesday.

A hydrating lip stain is my beauty white whale. Most lip stains dry out my lips for days, or worse, they settle into the fine lines on my lips. And many formulas that claim to be hydrating are really just glosses , fading after a couple sips of pretty much anything. Kulfi , a newer brand I’ve been following, released a lip oil this summer that promised both moisture and budgeproof wear. Sure, I thought.

When I first applied  Lassi Lips  (in a nude caramel), I noticed the texture was in between those of a typical lip oil (goopy, thick) and a lip stain (watery). Even though it was a little thinner, it stayed in place. It was also easy to apply precisely, thanks to its pointed applicator. Just one swipe of the product and my lips looked glossier and fuller. I rubbed my lips together and waited a minute, and it dried down to a subtler sheen with just as much pigment.

I went about my work day — eating lunch and sipping water out of my Owala. I checked the mirror every hour or so ,  not expecting much. After work, I met up with a friend for a very sweaty Pilates class. I was sure that after my workout, the lip stain would have worn off. But when I looked in the mirror, my lips still had the healthy, subtle glow they’d had all day. They were evenly pigmented and hydrated. It felt like I wasn’t wearing anything — no tackiness and no spidery lines around my mouth.

Also worth noting: Caramel is my perfect nude. I’ve always struggled to find the right shade. They’re usually too pink or too deep of a brown, which is great for certain occasions but not a true natural look. This shade felt like wearing the right bra size for the first time. It complemented my skin tone so perfectly. After two months, I’m reaching for Lip Lassi constantly (I’ve kind of stopped wearing my balms and lipsticks ). For casual everyday wear, it’s easy. I don’t have to layer to get both moisture and lasting color. And for going out, I like to keep the finish high shine, so I reapply it like a gloss. But even after all this obsessive use for months, I’ve barely made a dent in the tube. It truly takes one swipe for full coverage, and my lips are set for hours. I’m planning on buying a couple more shades to round out my collection.
