Product Review: COSMO Skin Exfoliant Soap

 It's nice to see how Cosmo Skin upgraded their beauty and skin care products. Some five years ago they just started from one variant of soap and two kinds of skin care supplements. I've tried their whitening soap (Cosmo Skin Glutathione and Arbutin Soap) before venturing into organic ones. I can say it's cost effective and if you're really serious in making your skin lighter, then Cosmo Skin is for you. I'm fair skinned to begin with but using the soap that I've mentioned above made my fair skin more even toned and smoother. If you'll ask me why I stopped using the soap, then my hormones got to be blamed and organic skin care soaps became my life saver. Switching to natural skin care products doesn't mean that it'll give you good results forever. Like in my case, there were times that my skin got immune to my favorite organic brands too. What I do is to alternate all my HG soaps and when there's a new brand to try, I take time to read the labels and dare to use it without a doubt. If I see a negative reaction after three uses, I stop using it. 

     Remember my post about the Cosmo Skin bfpc The Beauty Event? If not click HERE. I was very privilege to attend that event because it rekindles my love for Cosmo Skin. They we're very generous to give the media a token of skin care products and supplements. This soap was included inside the paper bag full of wonderful products. I've been using four of them as of the moment. I already reviewed their Collagen Hand and Body Cream HERE and boy, it's very effective! So without further ado, here's another product from Cosmo Skin.

Product Review: Cosmo Skin Collagen Hand and Body Cream

     Happy Sunday to all despite the gloomy weather outside. Hope everyone is safe so stay indoors and relax while reading your favorite blogs :) Anyhoo, here's a review of another promising skin care product that I've been using for three weeks now. If you're the type who likes to see fast results then read the whole review so that you'll understand why I'm starting to like it even though I enumerated three negative things about this so called hand and body cream. Yes, it's a cream form of lotion. I presume what you have in mind now is the cons of using this product. In my honest opinion, cream based lotion is a no no especially in our humid weather, right? But there's another way where you can still use this type of lotion and see results immediately. 

     Have you heard of COSMO Skin? If not, click HERE and HERE so that you'll have the idea of what this brand has to offer. I've known this brand some four years ago and tried their soap more than once. If I've been blogging during that time, it's a sure thing that I'll be raving it over and over again. I've also tried their Grape Seed Extract supplement and I can say that it's a better alternative to Vitamin C because it has more anti-oxidant properties than Vitamin C alone.

     So lets go back to star of this review! At first I have a love-hate relationship with the product but after a week it's all L-O-V-E! Now I'm telling you to click CONTINUE and enjoy reading!

Childhood obesity: A chubby kid is not equal to healthy

     A report by the World Health Organization (WHO) shockingly reveals that over 3 million children in the Philippines are overweight or obese. Over the years, the prevalence of obesity and obesity-related diseases among children in the country has risen sharply. The numbers have doubled over the past couple of decades and tripled over the last 30 years. If the trend is allowed to continue through our parental neglect, inaction, or indifference, it is possible that the numbers will quadruple in another ten years.

Product Review: Colour Collection Vitamin E Matte Lipstick in Flame

     Here's my review of another local brand of lipstick that my sister-in-law gave me last month. The two shades that she gave me were Flame- a coral shade and Elektra- a retro red shade. I'm so giddy to try Colour Collection lipstick because beauty bloggers have been giving good reviews about the product. They got their full size sample at Sample Room. I was very intrigued about the lipstick but unfortunately it's OOS when I was about to get my sample :( Thank goodness my SIL gave me two tubes of Colour Collection lipstick in shades that Sample Room didn't offered on their website. 

     When my SIL handed me the brochure, I was amazed to see different shades of this matte lipstick from corals, reds, pinks, browns and purples. And to my surprised, Tupperware Brands- the distributor of Colour Collection lipstick offers them in a BOGO (Buy One Get One) promo! Isn't that amazing? For just less than Five Hundred Pesos, you'll be able to get two pigmented lipstick. But the offer is for a limited time only so dearies if you chance upon a Tupperware lady near you better grab the brochure and order your own Colour Collection lipstick. So let's go now to my review, more pictures after the jump! Click CONTINUE READING please :)))

Product Review: iWhite Korea Moisturizing Facial Wash

     Hello dearies! My apologies for blogging on and off these past few days. I will just tell the reason once everything's okay. The anniversary giveaway will still push through next week or before this month ends. So please just keep posted and check this blog from time to time for updates. I want to thank you for making this blog alive.

     Do you still remember my last post about the soap that I'm currently using? If not please click HERE. My skin is still acting up until now. When it started last month, I'm hopeless and depressed because all of my HG skincare product failed to combat developing acne. What I have in mind that time was to look for another brand of organic soap but I never thought that a moisturizing facial wash can make a big difference. I'm surprised that iWhite Moisturizing Facial Wash did a great job and making my skin less problematic. Not only that it removes excess oil that causes acne build-up, but it also made the existing pimple marks appear lighter. Want to know more about this amazing product? Click to continue to find out!

Cosmo Skin and Cosmo Body- BFPC The Beauty Event Bloggers' and Media Launch

     Last month, I was invited to one of the grandest beauty event of the year. I'm not sure if you're familiar with the brand COSMO SKIN that's originally sold at Watsons Health and Beauty Store. I've known this brand for more than 5 years now. They've started from one variant of whitening soap and two kinds of skin supplement like the Glutathione capsule and Grape Seed Extract. I became interested with this brand because I've read raves from different forums about the glutathione soap. Their original variant of glutathione soap contains three of the most powerful whitening ingredients- glutathione, alpha arbutin and alpha lipoic acid. I was convinced to try the soap because I made some research about it and during the time I was using the soap, it made my skin even-toned, smooth and glowing. 

     After 7 years of making every Filipinos skin beautiful, bfpc or Bargn Farmaceutici Phils Co, the flagship company of Bargn Group received numerous awards and citations for producing innovative products in the Philippine market like skin care and supplements for men and women. Excited to know what happened during this fabulous event? Click Continue to find out.

Product Review: Be Organic Papaya Kojic Soap

     On my trip to Robinson's Galleria a month ago, I saw a big kiosk of SESOU store. It's a store where you can buy everything organic, from head to toe! They also sell general cleaning items and other stuff that's environment friendly. This is the store where I first met my favorite All Organics Soaps that I still purchase from time to time. I was looking for my favorite All Organics Calamansi variant that time but it's OOS. I was contemplating if I'll get another fave, the Singkamas variant or try another organic brand. Well, trying another brand can be risky for me now since my skin's condition these past few days was very sensitive. Breakouts here and there and my old skin care regimen seems not working anymore. So even though I was skeptical on trying an new organic brand, I still pursued buying one from Be Organic. 

     My skin concerns as of the moment are tiny bumps like whiteheads that will turn into zits after a few days, rough and dry cheeks and some oiliness on my chin and nose. I know that the cause of this is hormonal. I already went to my OB-Gynecologist to have a general check up. Anyhoo, there are four variants of Be Organic soap that time and I have my eyes glued on the Papaya Kojic soap. I was brave enough to try kojic soap because I already tried this variant of soap from different brands before. What's new to me is the combination of Papaya and Kojic.  I've been using the soap for more than three weeks now and the results are erratic. I guess the effects on my skin is not because of the soap but mainly the hormonal changes that I've been going through. 

Be Organic Papaya Kojic Soap
Achieve that flawless, blemish free, and younger looking skin in no time, Kojic Acid is a mushroom extract, and used to lighten discoloration such as freckles and age spots. It penetrates the skin and goes into deep cellular layers to inhibit dark pigmentation from forming. Azelaic and Glycolic acids effectively kill acne causing bacteria, control excess oil production and speed up skin cells turn over to reveal glowing new skin.

Product Review: Nivea Intensive Moisture Body Milk

     Hello dearies! Time for another review. It's nice to be back after how many days of just posting pr's and giveaways. My apologies for not updating lately because I'm not feeling well these past few days. Anyhoo, lets go back to the basic idea why we need to use lotion. This product review is meant for this coming season where our weather changes from wet to dry. Ber months means we're nearing Christmas and the atmosphere will be cold specially at night. When the weather gets cold, I know most of us experienced dry skin. Dry skin can be itchy and in most cases can lead to flaky skin. We need a heavy duty moisturizing lotion to keep our skin soft and smooth to touch. Thanks to Nivea for sending this over last January, dry skin is not a problem now. 

Long-lasting and intensive care for dry to very dry skin.

New NIVEA Intensive Moisture Body Milk

Enriched with high concentrated Vitamin E, the new non-sticky formula repairs dry and rough skin to become soft and smooth immediately. Together with Grape Seed Oil and Avocado Oil it provides effective yet natural care for silkier and smoother skin.

Your skin becomes noticeably softer, smoother and more supple within 7 days.
