Nisce Skin 'N Face

Product Review: Nisce Superblock SPF 80

Wednesday, May 29, 2013

I hate to admit it but the when it comes to using sunscreen on my face, I just consider on what's available in the market, any brand will do. I mean, there's no specifics for me so I always end up getting a zit or two. I presume all of you know that I call myself "nocturnal" because we always sleep in the morning and wide awake at night. So the need to use a high spf sunblock is not a big deal at all. I just rely on the spf content of my makeup like bb cream and face powder. But when my son started his summer enrichment class last month, I need to wake up early in the morning and face the sunlight with all it's glory. It's really hot in the morning, around 9 a.m. - 12 noon. During that time, I'll drop by Kenzo at school which is by the way near our house so sometimes we'll just walk instead of riding the tricycle. My big umbrella's protection was not enough, I still feel the insane heat over my entire skin. With this situation, I said to myself that I need to use a good sunblock that will protect me from the damaging rays of the sun. Good thing Nisce gave this sunblock during their Hottest Summer Bloggers Event. To know more about Nisce and this product, click HERE :)

Product Review: Nisce Whitening Soap

Thursday, September 06, 2012

     Hi guys, tomorrow is Friday so any plans for the weekend? I'll be at the Dialysis center again for my father's treatment. I'm always outside the house which I really don't like but I have no choice. As much as possible, I always stay away from the scorching heat of the sun. Staying more than two hours outside makes me lightheaded and for sure will give me headache before the day ends. Another thing that I don't want to happen when staying long hours in the sun is the hyper-pigmentation that I get even though I'm using sunblock. My skin tends to be very sensitive when hit by the sun and for sure will give me uneven skin tone and darkening.

     I'm super satisfied with organic soaps that I use everyday. If you're a reader of this blog from the start, I know you know that I love organic soaps from All Organics to Cyleina and Snoe Beauty. I'm using different variants alternately and depending on my skin needs. But sometimes I really got curious trying other soaps that looks promising. I always say to myself that I found my holy grail and just ignore them. But there's no harm in trying as long as you know the limitations :D When I attended the Niscenssa Online Store Launch, two products caught my attention. I already tried their Dr. Skin+ toner and I love the results on my skin. I'm so thankful when I discovered that another product that was glued on my eye during that evening came home with me inside the loot bag :)))

     I was very hesitant at first, asking myself to use it or not? I scrutinized the ingredients and found out that it contains three whitening agents and beauty oils. I braved myself to use it even if I'm not sure about the effects it will give on my sensitive skin. So to be safe, I cut the soap into half and tried it for two weeks. I'm happy that nothing bad happened to my skin. I pair this soap with All Organics Calamansi so that if ever a bad reaction occur, there's a savior that will counter irritations. And after finishing the whole bar two days ago, I'm sure you're excited how did it fare with my skin. Read on to discover if this soap is a Yay or a Nyay...
Nisce Whitening Soap
This soap contains glutathione, kojic acid, and arbutin, all of which are effective skin lightening agents that competitively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme necessary for the synthesis of melanin, the skin's pigment. Kojic acid likewise has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties.
Hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested.
Nisce Whitening Soap
size: 135g

price: free (120php Around $2.80+)

place bought: free

instructions for use: Can be used for face and body

ingredients: Aqua, Sodium Hydroxide, Theobroma Cacao (Cacao) Seed Butter, Citric Acid, Tocopherol, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Glycerin, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil,, Glycerin, Water, Butylene Glycol, Arbutin, Citric Acid, Sodium Sulfite, Acetyl Tyrosine, Saxifraga Sarmentosa Extract, Paeonia Suffructicosa Root Extract, Aminopropyl Ascorbyl Phospate, Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, Glutathione, Fragrance.

What I like:
  • The price- very affordable for a 135g product.
  • Doesn't melt fast, doesn't break or deform its shape even up to the last bits.
  • The scent is not overpowering.
  • Makes my skin soft and smooth.
  • The whole bar lasted me more than a month.
  • Can be bought online and shipping is free :D
  • No irritation and stinging.
  • This soap helped me maintain my skin tone (I'm always outside the house between 10am and 3pm doing errands and walking in and out of the hospital)
What I don't like:
  • Contains some synthetic chemicals which I'm trying to avoid as much as possible.
  • Not easily accessible for those who doesn't want to buy online. The nearest branch is far from where I live.
  • A little dryness which I guess will always be there after using whitening soaps.
Will I repurchase? Yes! I like that it's packed with 3 whitening ingredients (Kojic Acid, Arbutin and Glutathione). 

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4/5 rating. A cost effective whitening soap that really works! If you still haven't considered organic soaps as your new companion in terms of whitening, then I highly recommend this soap to you. I love organic whitening soaps but this one is very promising. It contains 3 whitening agents so instead of buying them separately (Kojic Acid, Arbutin and Glutathione), you can have them in just one bar. I can say that using this religiously for more than a month will give you a whiter, smooth and blemish free skin.  

For more information on how to purchase their skin care products like them on Facebook: Niscenssa Direct Sales or visit Niscenssa Online Store :D

     What's your current beauty soap? Thanks for sharing! Take care loves...

Good Times!~


Product Review: Dr. Skin+ Toner

Tuesday, September 04, 2012

     Hello dearies! How's your week going? My apologies for this uber later and delayed post. I'm still adjusting on my schedule for my father's dialysis and mommy duties. It's not that easy as I think it would be. There were times that I wanted to read blog posts and update this blog before going to bed but waking up the next day with my laptop on stand by mode. So I guess emotional and physical stress is taking its toll on me. I've been experiencing symptoms of flu lately and thank God that I'm still okay. 

     So on to my review, I'm happy with the result of new skin care products that I used on my face and another one on my body. It's been a month and a half since I started using this toner that I'm loving now! I consider this toner as semi-organic because two of the main ingredients were from natural plants like the Camellia Sinensis and Witch Hazel. When I first saw this on my loot bag after the Nicesnssa Online Store Launch I'm giddy to try it the next day after the event but I have doubts since my skin is very sensitive specially when trying new ones. Prolly you know that my favorite and most trusted toner and still using up to now is All Organics Lemongrass Toner. So when I tried Dr. Skin Toner, I can say that this can be a good dupe to my favorite toner or should I say an alternative one week before my monthly period where hormones starting to get wild. Hehehe! Cystic acne and oily skin are the signs that my monthly period will begin in a weeks time so to make an early prevention I decided to use this toner and see if there will be a slight difference. To my surprise there's a big difference! 

     Click read more and see if this toner will be a staple in my cabinet and if I'm going to order another bottle online :D

Dr. Skin Toner
Oil Control/ Anti-Acne
best for oily skin, reduces clogged pores, helps control bacteria and suppresses inflammation, controls active acne breakouts.
size: 100ml

price: free (130php Around $3.00)

place bought: free 

instructions for use: Apply all over face and neck w/ a cotton ball using upward and outward strokes.

ingredients: Aqua, Ethyl Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, Triclosan, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Hamameus Virginia (Witch Hazel) Distillate, Menthol

What I like:
  • The price- very affordable.
  •  I love the cool feeling it gives on my face, very relaxing!
  • There's no weird or funky smell.
  • The bottle dispenses right amount of product.
  • There's a manufacturing and batch number stamped at the bottom of the bottle.
  • No irritations or breakouts or whatsoever.
  • It lessened my hormonal breakouts and keeps the oil at bay.
  • Calms redness on my face.
  • Can be purchased online.
What I don't like:
  • Their branch at Sm Fairview has been pulled out so I have no choice but to visit Sm Megamall branch which is very far from our house. Sometimes online shopping can be very hassle to me :(
Will I repurchase? Yes! I'm planning to restock on this toner. 

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.75/5 rating. Even though it's not organic, my skin didn't experience breakouts and irritation unlike other commercial toners that I've tried. I highly recommend this toner specially to those who wanted to keep their oilies at bay and lessen their cystic acne. A word of caution, use the product at your own risk. We have different skin types and needs so what worked for me may not work for you. 

     Do you use more than one toners? Thanks for sharing! Take care loves :D


Good Times!~
