Feature: Olay Sun-Proof Ageless Summer Packs

     Did you know that even indoors you need to slather your favorite sunblock in order to protect you from UV rays? Yes, I know staying indoors is the easiest way to veer away from the scorching summer heat outside.

     Some of you may choose to stay at home or inside the office because of the airconditioned comfort but contrary to popular thinking, even the indoors do not provide enough protection from the damaging rays of the sun. In fact, studies show that staying by a window indoors all day long without sunscreen is equivalent to the sun damage experienced from taking a 15-minute walk out during lunchtime. Yikes!

Collagen by Watsons

     Did you know that at the age of 25, problems in the anti-aging department start to arise? Yes, that droppy or sagging skin below your chin, an overly active oil mine in your face, dark spots and uneven skin tone on your cheeks and forehead plus the reality of appearing fine lines and wrinkles all boils down to one dilemma- aging skin!

     These skin concerns may have resulted from low collagen levels in the skin. As we all know, collagen is the building block of the skin’s structure that's naturally produced by our bodies. Sad to say, as we age, collagen production slows down or weakens because of other factors like stress and pollution. Collagen products- topical and oral can help address those that's why Watsons launched a solution to help us look good and feel great. Enter Collagen by Watsons. More information about the product line after the jump.

Watsons Kiss Aging Goodbye Campaign Launch

     Aging is inevitable, but signs can be reversible because of different skin care products that we have today. In search for the fountain of youth, women ages 30 years old and above resort to anti-aging products to pro-long the effects of aging in the skin. If you're into anti-aging, I presume that you are using creams, serums, and even supplements that diminishes fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, and pigmentation. 

     Did you know that 20 is the new 30? Yes, you read that right. With all the stress and bad habits that come with our hectic, modern lives, women are aging faster than ever before. And the signs- both internal and external, visible and invisible, start to manifest as early as your 20s.  I was shocked when I heard this during Watsons Kiss Aging Goodbye campaign. Does that mean  I'm already late in terms of when to incorporate anti-aging products in my skin care regimen? Sharing some insights on anti-aging and highlights of the event below :)

Watsons Kiss Aging Goodbye Campaign Launch

     Last August 4, 2016, Watsons launched their Kiss Aging Goodbye event at Watsons Podium Mall with Patty Laurel as their host. Watsons is helping thousands of women to Kiss Aging Goodbye in its latest anti-aging campaign. During the event, we busted the myths about anti-aging and learned more on the facts why it is important to invest on skin care products that target aging.

     Watsons Marketing Director, Ms. Viki Encarnacion, explains, “The Kiss Aging Goodbye campaign is what Watsons is all about. It’s an educational effort with a two-pronged approach, teaching our customers how to prevent the negative effects of aging by taking care of themselves inside and out. We are literally helping people ‘Look good. Feel great.’ And it’s a wonderful thing.” Here’s how the two-pronged approach works.

2. Anti-aging supplements

• A lot of the signs of aging we see on the outside is caused by the body breaking down on the inside. 
• Calcium deficiency and lack of collagen are two common culprits. 
• To help prevent a haggard look, you should give yourself the added nutrition you need in the form of food supplements and ingestible beauty aids. 
• One of Watsons’ favorites is the iVi Collagen Ready-To-Drink, with 10,000 mg of Collagen that helps smoothen fine lines, and lighten dark spots for that forever-young glow.

Here are some tips from the experts and from yours truly:

1. If you want to keep your beauty longer, keep your beauty bases covered from nutrition to skincare, inside and out. 

2. You’re never too young to start looking old. Start preventive maintenance in your early 20s. If that ship has sailed, start as early as now. 

3. Always drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. Hydration is the key to maintain skin elasticity and moisture thus preventing it from dryness.

4. Use sunblock and sunscreen everyday. Re-apply every 4 hours. Bring umbrella, wear shades, to protect you from the damaging rays of the sun. Avoid sun exposure in the afternoon where the UVA/UVB rays are at its peak.

5. Stop smoking! Drink moderately. Eat healthy and exercise. 

6. Start your anti-aging regimen by investing on products that will help lessen or diminish wrinkles, fine lines, crow's feet, sagging skin, and hyper pigmentation. You can score anti-aging products at Watsons Stores nationwide.

7. Start hoarding anti-aging products now because Watsons is having a great sale on anti-aging products until September 21, 2016.

Product Review: Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Anti-Ageing Day Moisturizer with SPF 15

     Hello dearies! Today, I'll be sharing a review of another infamous skincare product that's on my wishlist for quite some time. My mother-in-law made that wish come true when she gave me a bottle of Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Anti-Ageing Day Moisturizer with SPF 15 last November when she arrived from Saudi Arabia. This moisturizer was sitting in my stash for four months before I decided to give it a try. I'm still using my favorite organic moisturizer the time I received this product that's why it took months before I started using it. 

     The first week was oh so good that I cannot stop myself from looking at the mirror peeking at my glowing skin. There's a certain glow that I don't know how to explain. Yes, it's like this product is making my skin look younger and fresher. But after a couple of weeks, something bothered me and made me decide to stop using the product. I can say I have a love-hate relationship with Olay Total Effects and decided to call it quits after two months of usage. If you want to know why click CONTINUE READING and find out.

Product Review: Be Organic Emu Skin Perfecting Cream

     Hello dearies! I'm very excited to share my review today because it's another first :) It's my first organic/natural face cream to date :) I'm a long time user of GNC Vitamin C Moisturizing cream and consumed more than five tubs already. And because I'm slowly incorporating organic products to my body and hair care essentials, I think now is the right time to have one for the face. 

     Remember my post about my discover of a new brand of organic soap that I've posted months ago? I mused my story there when I first saw the brand Be Organic. Aside from the soaps, this EMU Skin Perfecting cream caught my attention. I asked the SA about this cream and she said that it's a new product from Be Organic and explained to me that it's packed with vitamins and natural skin perfecting ingredients. Sounds very pleasing to the ears and kudos to the SA who knew what she really sells. Back to my story, I was tempted to buy a tub that time but I just brought an exact amount of money that day. So I said to myself that I'll come back for this cream on my next visit to SESOU store whether it's at Trinoma or Robinson's Galleria branch. But this lemming or wish came true when Ms. Cheryl of Be Organic Bath and Body sent me samples of their products. I'm really not expecting that she included a full-sized EMU Skin Perfecting Cream when I received my package. All I know is that she will just send me soaps because it was the only thing that I've mentioned on my previous post about my review on the Papaya Kojic soap. It's very heart warming when you're not expecting to receive products beyond your expectations. Don't get me wrong but I'm really overwhelmed with the products she sent me. 

     Are you familiar with Emu oil? Have you heard this miraculous product that came from the Emu bird? Click CONTINUE READING to know more information about the benefits and of course about this cream.
