Product Review: Meiji Amino Collagen Powder 2018

     Hello dearies! Sharing my thoughts on the newest formulation of the infamous collagen brand- Meiji Amino Collagen Powder. If my memory serves me right, this is the 3rd time I'm going to review this collagen brand. I saw positive effects during the time I'm taking it that's why reviewing it again to see if it has the same results after finishing one can for a month.

     I have high hopes with Japanese supplements as they have the strictest standards when it comes to the manufacturing process. They are constantly innovating to meet the demands of the consumers that's why I think they reformulated again for the third time because their supplement has one flaw- the odor of the formulations before. The heavens have heard my woes and yes, I have the answer to the questions now- does Meiji Amino Collagen tastes fishy? Read my thought below :)

How to Care for Your Hair Extensions

     The beauty of hair is that it is so versatile: keep it long, short, dark or blonde or bright pink. Your hair should express who you are and your own self-confidence. Sometimes you just want more hair, and the addition of hair extensions will do the trick. However, quality hair extensions will cost you a hefty salon visit – it is crucial that you take care of your extensions post-salon to help them last.

Product Review: NEW Meiji Amino Collagen Starter Kit [DISCONTINUED]

     Hello, collagen supplement lovers! The most loved collagen brand- Meiji launched a new and improved version of their Amino Collagen that we all love. My heart skipped when I saw the new packaging but I panicked when I saw that they reduced the collagen content to only 1,000 mg per scoop. From 5,000 mg, now it's down to a small amount BUT it's still effective like the old one.

     So if you're in search of the fountain of youth, Meiji is one of the brands that I'll recommend. It's effective and easy on the budget. Cheskas Store sent a 30-day supply of the New and Improved Meiji Amino Collagen for me to try and share my thoughts if it's worth the reformulation.

Feature: Liese Blaune DIY Color for Gray Hair

     Women nowadays are so busy. I know all of you can relate to this even if you're just a plain housewife who works 24/7 at home or a career woman who has a day or night job in the office. Raise your hands if you're one of these busy women who have a lot on their hands nowadays.

     If they aren’t busy succeeding in their careers, they’re busy nurturing and bringing up their children. Many are opting to do both. Even with amazing multi-tasking skills, even a short break does wonders. You may be busy doing a lot of things, but seeing some grey makes you feel older and haggard. Pampering should always be included in a busy calendar but some will say they lack time. Can you just pause for a minute and look at yourself in front of a mirror? See?! Having visible gray hair isn’t great at all. It makes you feel much older than you are, and you look like you’re more stressed than usual. What to do? Read more below and solve that grey hair problem in as fast as 30 minutes!

Feature: Status Hair Salon Maginhawa

     The last time I had my hair colored from a reputable salon was last December 2016. It took almost a year before I decided to say 'yes' for another hair coloring sesh from a known hair salon because of availability and accessibility. 

     I've been itching to color my hair last month using DIY color but decided to postpone it because the shade that I want is not available at Watsons. I think the heavens heard my plea last week. I know it's time to refresh my hair color because the roots are showing up and the ends are breaking. Hooray for a day of pampering and 'me' time at Status Hair Salon Maginhawa branch. Aside from hair color, they also treated me to a hair treatment, manicure, and pedicure services. Highlights of my visit below :)

Dove Real Beauty

     What is beauty to you? I presume that your default answer would be "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" or "beauty is subjective" then give a follow through answer to the one asking the question- "beauty is subjective, what's beautiful for me may not be beautiful to you." I agree with 'beauty is subjective' because beauty varies among cultures. 

     We have different definitions and standards of beauty that's why I believe that everyone is beautiful. I'm always moved by Dove campaigns because they focus on women empowerment. Their commercial ads are mostly real talk- inviting women to embrace their natural beauty despite the imperfections and flaws. Let's have a short talk about beauty and what is Dove Real Beauty all about below :)

     Christmas parties and reunions are happening here, there, and almost everywhere. Are you ready to show off your holiday look? For girls, prepping for parties can be stressful because it's not only what to wear that we are thinking because we also want to look good from head to toe.

Novuhair Enhanced Formulation

     I suffered hair loss fall in the past and the feeling was stressful. Imagine seeing more than 100 strands of hair lying on the floor after taking a bath. I feel for individuals who are suffering great hair loss resulting to baldness and alopecia. There are different products in the market today that offer solution to hair loss but not all are effective in the long run.

     Say goodbye to hair loss and scalp problems with the newly-enhanced formulation of Novuhair. With 19 natural ingredients, the leading medicated topical scalp lotion is now almost 100% natural. “The Novuhair Topical Scalp Lotion used to only have 12 natural ingredients. Its improved formulation has a much better fragrance and a cool and minty feel. It also has anti-dandruff properties, as well as nourishing and moisturizing effects on the hair and scalp,” said Sheila Mae Velilla, CEO of Nutramedica, developer and distributor of Novuhair. More details about Novuhair below.
