You might think that eating chocolates everyday will result into diabetes, fret not because according to my Father's doctor it's okay to eat a small amount of dark chocolate because it's good for the heart :) So when Unilab sent me their newest flavor of Swish mouthwash, the choco lover in me got giddy to try this exciting flavor the moment I got hold of it. But before I muse my awesome experience about the product, let me share with you other variants and sizes of Swish mouthwash that will surely make your oral care Surefresh than ever!

Product Review: Mischka Derma Secret Advance Whitening Body Lotion

Sunday, February 23, 2014

      Let's continue the series of product reviews from Mischka Derma Secret and last but not the least is their advance whitening body lotion. If you're a long time reader of this blog I'm sure you know that I'm a sucker for whitening lotions! I'm already fair to begin with but I have uneven skin tone that's why I still need this kind of lotion. I've tried so many brands in the market today and only a few got a perfect score because of important factors that I consider for it to be a HG material. I believe that whitening lotions should not only whiten the skin but protect it from the harmful rays of the sun so a decent amount of sunscreen should be present from its ingredients. Anti-aging factor? Why not?! Whitening plus anti-aging lotions would be one of the best combination not only for lotions but for soaps and other skin care products. If you're like me who loves to try different kinds of whitening lotions I'm sure you already know powerful whitening ingredients that will help you achieve whiter and glowing skin. The most popular ingredients are glutathione, arbutin, kojic, licorice and placenta. I'm pretty sure that most of the coveted whitening products today contains two or more of the ingredients that I've mentioned above. So if you really want to whiten and lighten your skin, make sure you do your research because not all the whitening ingredients will give you positive results.

      Anyhoo, I've been using this lotion on and off. If you ask me why, because it doesn't have spf and I'm too lazy to take evening bath this past two months because of the cold weather at night. This lotion is best applied before going to bed since it's not suitable for day time use. To tell you honestly, I have a love-hate relationship with this product. I love it because it's easily absorbed by the skin, the scent is okay and it helps me maintain my skin tone even if I'm exposed to harmful sun rays during day time but I hate it because it doesn't have spf and the price tag seems too high for budget conscious individual like me. So without further ado, here's my honest to goodness review of Mischka Derma Secret Advance Whitening Body Lotion. Click CONTINUE READING if it's a yay or a nay :)

Product Review: Essence Fix and Matte Translucent Loose Powder

     Happy Sunday dearies! I'm back with another review and this time let me share with you my favorite finishing powder as of the moment. As you all know I'm a late bloomer when it comes to makeup and this is my first time using a loose powder to seal the bb cream or liquid foundation on my face. Before I met this baby, I was using Majolica Majorca Skin Remaker Pore Cover as my finishing powder. I never thought that translucent loose powder acts more than a powder foundation. When I saw this brand from my fellow beauty bloggers, I asked them if a tub is worth the hype. Aya, one of my closest blogger friend said yes and without second thoughts I gave in. 

     I visited essence counter at Sm Fairview and grab myself a tub of this. The tub contains 15.5g of goodness that I'm still using up now. If my memory serves me right it's been a year since I bough this product. There's so many positive reviews about Essence Fix and Matte Translucent Loose Powder here and abroad so If you're a makeup addict, I'm sure you've stumble upon them. Enough of the blabber, here's the review of one of the most coveted translucent loose powder among beauty bloggers worldwide. Click CONTINUE READING and find out why I gave this a 5/5 rating :)

     As a health conscious individual, I've learned to read labels of products that I put inside my body, I've tried at least three types or exercise routines at home and also enrolled myself at the gym and had researched more than ten supplements available in the market to help me loose weight and maintain youthful skin. I'm very proud to say that one of my favorite store, GNC Philippines have chosen this blog to be their partner in promoting men's and women's health and wellness.

Product Review: Mischka Derma Secret Advance Gluta Blends Soap

Tuesday, February 18, 2014

     Hello dearies! Here's another product review from Mischka Derma Secret that was sent to me by the owner Ms. Michelle Rivera last month. The moment I saw this soap from the beauty loot, I was ecstatic because cute logos and heart designs are my weakness. I easily give in to beautiful product labels, packaging and the like. But more than that, I always check the ingredients of a product and when I see something different I get intrigued and for sure I'll be using it religiously without a doubt. I presume that you all know I'm a sucker for organic soaps/organic whitening soap because I have uneven skin tone. I'm already fair to begin with that's why you may ask why I need this variant of soap. Well, to tell you honestly I sometimes hate my skin tone. I easily get sunburned when exposed to sun. Since I wear flip flops everyday and fetching my son from school is one of my proof that my skin is very sensitive to sunlight. We go to my son's school around 10:00 a.m. then we'll walk from our street to the guard house to wait for our ride. It's a pain, I tell you! I can really feel the heat of the sun on the surface of my skin. 

     Okay go back to the review, this soap is a combination of four beautifying and lightening ingredients. There's milk gluathione, arbutin, rosehips and collagen. Even though the major whitening ingredients are milk glutathione and arbutin, the other two also helps in maintaining the skin suppleness and youthful glow. Pro-longed sun exposure can result to aging, wrinkles and skin cancer and that's where the rosehips and collagen do their part. I've been using this soap for more than three weeks now. I can say it helped me maintain my skin tone even if I'm always exposed to sunlight. But I don't attribute it to the soap alone, I also use sunblock and lotion for extra protection. I also use umbrella or if it's too hot outside, I wear a protective gear like jacket or long-sleeve shirts. Excited to know what I like about the soap? Click CONTINUE READING to find out!

Product Review: Mischka Derma Secret Green Papaya Body Scrub

Sunday, February 16, 2014

     Hellos! How's your Valentine's Day celebration? I hope ya'll had a blast. My apologies for updating this blog just now. I had a very wonderful week with my family and friends and also received good news from brands that I never thought will become part of this blog. Thank you very much for all the support dearies, without you all the blessings will not be possible. March will be an exciting month for my dear readers. There's a lot of giveaways from my lovely sponsors so keep your eyes glued!

     Let's start the week right with another review :) Summer is fast approaching and this season is one of the worst for me when it comes to taking care of my skin. I have a hate relationship with summer. My skin starts to react badly when the temperature rises. Breakouts here and there and my body starts to sweat a lot! I hate the icky feeling when I sweat a lot. That's why I always make sure to add a product or two to my skin care essentials for that extra squeaky clean feel. This is also the time that I usually skip or apply light lotions to avoid the greasy and heavy feeling on my body. Thanks to body scrubs because some of them doubles as moisturizers and polishes the body from dead skin cells accumulated by the skin from dust and other forms of pollution. I already have my favorite body scrubs but that doesn't stop me from discovering new brands and variants to try. Thank you Mischka Derma Secret for sending your body scrub. The moment I opened the tub, I sensed that the product is very promising. When I scooped a dollop of this scrub in my hand and spread it gently, I said to myself that this can pass as a dupe to my favorite Asian Secrets Lulur Scrub. Excited to see how this scrub has fared with my skin? Click CONTINUE READING to find out!

Product Review: [UPDATED 2017] Snow Caps L-Glutathione Dietary Supplement

Sunday, February 02, 2014

      Hello! Finally, I'll be sharing my thoughts on one of the supplements that were sent to me by Sir Erick of Vida NutriScience last year. Before I accepted this product for a review, I made a research on the positive and negative effects of glutathione in our body. There's a lot of positive effects and the only negative effect that I saw from reviews was the lightening of the skin. 

     I presume that all of you already know what glutathione is. I'll be surprised if one celebrity here in our country denies that he/she is taking glutathione then you'll see him/her got a lighter color in just a short span of time. It's pretty obvious that it's because of glutathione. Glutathione is very popular here in our country. It became a craze years ago and until now more Filipina wants to achieve lighter skin. I'm already fair to begin with so I braved taking this skin care supplement not because I want to make my skin lighter but because aside from the whitening side effects, I also want to flush out the toxins in my body and see the glow in my dull skin.

     
     This is a long overdue post because I'm supposed to have it published around December but I'm having second thoughts because during the time I'm taking the capsules, I was also road testing whitening lotions and whitening soaps so I have to stop using the lotion and soap at the same time to see real results coming from this supplement. Since this is my first time to take this kind of supplement, I'll be base my review and rating on the positive effects that it gave not only on the whitening department but on my over all experience as well. So without further ado, here's my honest to goodness review of Snow Caps L-Glutathione Dietary Supplement, a product of Vida NutriScience makers of MySlim and Acne Care. This product is also available at http://www.cheskasstore.net/ Click CONTINUE READING for details.

[UPDATED 2017] Snow Caps L-Glutathione Dietary Supplement

[UPDATED 2017] Snow Caps L-Glutathione Dietary Supplement

What I like:

  • The price-  one of the most affordable glutathione brand in the market today that is FDA approved.
  • Comes in a handy box packaging. It's also sealed in blister packs to maintain freshness.
  • There's a slight stinky rotten egg scent- it only means that it's authentic. I've read in some forums that authentic glutathione should smell like rotten egg. 
  • This glutathione also contains alpha lipoic acid and vitamin c known as boosters to speed up the whitening process of the skin.
  • I didn't experience any discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts or whatsoever.
  • It made my skin glowing even if there are times that I need to stay late at night.
  • It lessened cystic pimples popping around my chin which I experience every month.
  • The color of my freckles lightened a bit while I'm taking this capsule.
  • I noticed that it lightened some insect bites on my legs that whitening lotions and soaps cannot address.
  • Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package.

What I don't like:
  • None

Will I purchase? Yes! I consider taking this supplement for overall wellness and of course If I hit the beach and got tan, I'll take this if I want to bring back my old skin tone the fastest way.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.75/5 rating. To those who want to achieve fair skin, I highly recommend this product. It's FDA approved and contains not only glutathione but it has a decent amount of Vitamin C and Alpha Lipoic Acid. This supplement is also meant to treat blood disorders and serves as an antioxidant in the liver. So if you smoke, drink and always stay late at night this supplement will also help cleanse the toxins from those I mentioned above in your body.

     Have you tried taking glutathione as a daily supplement? Hope you can share your experience :)
