Human Stem Cell Extract: The Latest Breakthrough in Antiaging Skincare

Thursday, November 14, 2019

     Japan is known for being a leader of innovation which, naturally, encompasses skincare technology. And so last February 2019, Japan launched RE Placenta Essence Serum onto the market with the goal of “relieving the anxiety of ageing”. 

     This may sound typical. However, the synergistic power of a Nobel-prize winning component, high-quality placenta, skin growth factors, and top of the line beauty components has taken antiaging skincare to a whole new level. 

Human Stem Cell Extract: The Latest Breakthrough in Antiaging Skincare

Product Review: Mosbeau Placenta White Advanced

Wednesday, May 31, 2017

     If you're a long time user of whitening and anti-aging supplements, prolly you know that Japanese brands are effective no matter how much the price tag. They are also producing food supplements that have many ingredients per serving but contains a little of everything. Even though a capsule or tablet contains 1/4 or 1/2 of the competing brand, the effect is the same or at par with the competition.

     I'm not a medical expert but I think Japanese's strict standard in their FDA department gives consumers safe and cost-effective products. One brand that's been trusted by Japanese for years now is Mosbeau and today I'll be sharing my thoughts on Mosbeau Placenta White Advanced after taking it for a month. Review details below :)

Product Review: Fracora WHITE'st Placenta Serum

Wednesday, September 07, 2016

     Hello dearies! Sharing with you another review of my recent skin care product. I received a bottle of Fracora WHITE'st Placenta Serum months ago from Cheska's Store Online but did not use it right away because I'm still road testing a moisturizer from a start-up brand. I was intrigued with this serum when I read the description because it says made from 100% concentrated undiluted placenta extract. So basically it's really pure and water like when I peek inside the small bottle.

     I almost cringe in my seat to find out that a 30 ml bottle costs Php 2,200. Is this the miracle skin care product that we are looking for? Knowing Japanese standards, they will produce products that are effective even if some are not budget-friendly. To feed my curiosity and to know if this product is worth the price tag, I road-tested it for more than a month by applying the serum religiously day and night. The verdict? See my honest to goodness thoughts below :)
Product Review: Fracora WHITE'st Placenta Serum
Fracora Whitest Placenta Extract Serum (description taken from Cheskas Store Online)
  • Contains 100% concentrated undiluted pure placenta essence. 
  • Placenta Serum is a type of skin treatment product normally made from sheep placenta which is normally applied topically as a skin restorative.

  • Serum made from placenta could commonly include other advantageous active ingredients, such as collagen, 
  • Vitamin supplement E, or green herbal tea extract. 
  • Placenta serum is usually used topically as a skin restorative. 
  • Producers normally declare that placenta serum could help slow and lessen the aging process, that it can enhance immunity, which it could assist basic health and very high power levels.

Use the dropper to get the product. Be careful not to spill a drop or two. There's a line in the dropper as you can see in the photo above. I always pump until it reaches that line and apply what I got on my entire face.
Product Review: Fracora WHITE'st Placenta Serum
I don't have perfect skin. I have large pores cheek and nose area plus my Hori's Nevus 
What I like:
  • It's package in a small bottle which is very handy and travel-friendly. 
  • Fracora White'st Placenta Serum is made from 100% undiluted placenta so it's pure. 
  • The texture- very light because it's like that of water. 
  • This water-type serum is easily absorbed once applied. 
  • Non-greasy. Not sticky. 
  • The glow is really obvious in the morning after waking up. 
  • Made my skin soft and smooth to touch. 
  • It made my face brighter or should I say lighter and less oily. 
  • Batch and manufacturing date printed at the bottom of the packaging. 
  • Free from paraben, fragrance, and mineral oil.

What I don't like:
  • The scent- there's a weird scent. A bit fishy for my sensitive nose but I can tolerate it as long as I will not inhale during application. 
  • Since the texture is watery, it runs out fast. I always try not to spill a drop or two of this precious serum. 
  • Expensive especially for budget conscious individuals or those who have tight budget. 
  • Available online.

Will I repurchase?: Maybe.

Recommendation:
      I give this product a 4/5 rating. This serum is one of the best skin care products that I have tried to date but it's soo pricey. No breakouts, irritations, or whatsoever because the texture is watery. Still contemplating if I will buy another bottle since I find it so quick to run out. You can see in the photo above that I still have large pores and my Hori's Nevus is till there but lighter based on my observation.

     I will recommend this product if you have the budget to splurge and you have sensitive skin. Since the product is made only of three ingredients, I guess the percentage of breakouts and other skin reactions will be low.

What's the most expensive moisturizer, cream, or serum you have tried to date? Share below :)

Product Review: Orihiro Placenta Collagen Powder

Monday, August 22, 2016

     I'll be honest that aging is already taking its toll on me. I noticed some fine lines and wrinkles on my forehead and the pores around my nose got bigger. I'm not blaming aging because it's inevitable, it will haunt all of us but after attending events on skin care and aging, I've come to realized that I really need to be serious in this department so that it will come slowly.

     I'm not getting any younger, I'll be 35 next year. I've read somewhere that one must invest in anti-aging skin care products at the age of 30 but now the trend is getting younger. From 25 down to 20! Yes, you read that right. If you're aiming for that 'age gracefully' motto, you need to start incorporating anti-aging skin care products and supplements. I've discovered an anti-aging supplement in the name of Orihiro Placenta Collagen Powder. This is a 2-in-1 anti-aging supplement that's also from Japan. More details on Orihiro Placenta Collagen Powder below :)

     I took this supplement for 1 month and noticed that my skin is improving in terms of texture and appearance.

Product Review: Orihiro Placenta Collagen Powder
My bare face- Hori's Nevus and melasma on my cheeks, still obvious pores around my nose but smaller in my observation unlike before.

What I like:
  • Orihiro Placenta Collagen Powder is the cheapest collagen powder that I've tried!
  • It is FDA approved.
  • It's in a well-sealed pouch. 
  • A 2-in-1 anti-aging product perfect for those who want to lessen the number of supplements they take every day. 
  • It also contains other ingredients like Arginine, Glucosamine, and Vitamin C for other health benefits.
  • I love the vanilla flavor. This is the most delicious collagen powder supplement that I've tried to date. Less to no fishy smell, unlike other brands.
  • I didn't experience any discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts or whatsoever.
  • Made my skin glowing even I only have 4 hours of sleep.
  • My skin is supple and soft to touch.
  • My nails are less brittle and my hair fall lessened too.
  • I look less haggard upon waking up. 
  • Didn't make my look plump which I really like. No need to worry about double chin which I experienced with other collagen brands.
  • My skin looks healthy and shiny- not the 'oil' type of shine, if you may ask.
  • Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package.

What I don't like:
  • Not easily accessible. You have to purchase it online.
  • There's no scoop included in the pouch.

Will I purchase? Yes! My new favorite because aside from the collagen content it also has placenta and it's very affordable too!

Recommendation:
     I give this a 5/5 rating. The price is cheap and this is one of the best collagen supplement that I've tried so far. I noticed that my skin is moist and the pores around my nose became smaller. I have pre-mature wrinkles in the under eye area that's visible but during the time I'm taking this, I barely notice them.

     I will highly suggest this brand because it has less to no fishy smell and taste which is perfect for those who have a sensitive nose.

Product Review: Otsuka Placenta C Jelly

Friday, July 22, 2016

     Hello dearies! After sharing with you my review of Otsuka Collagen C Jelly anti-aging supplement. Here's another jelly type supplement that's worth the hype. This product is also a hot item in Japan and belongs to the Otsuka Beauty jelly supplements. Based on the reviews I've read online, this jelly is not only for anti-aging but it can also whiten the skin. So placenta extract, you may ask...

     Some find it weird, taking placenta supplement because uhm well it's placenta! It can come from pig, sheep, or human placenta which are also in capsule and powder form. Otsuka Placenta C Jelly is jelly in form. A placenta supplement for dessert. I'm sure you're intrigued. If you think it's gross because it is placenta, well Otsuka made taking placenta supplement enjoyable and yummy. More details on Otsuka Placenta C Jelly below :)

  • ndividually packed portions of jelly are convenient and easy to eat, especially if you don't like taking tablet or powder form of diet supplement. 
  • Unique enzyme decomposition processing allows the collagen, placenta peptides and hyaluronic acids to be easily absorbed. 
  • placenta beauty diet supplement is both safe and diet-friendly.

Product Review: Otsuka Placenta C Jelly Review
   
     To tell you honestly, I enjoyed eating this placenta jelly sticks. It's so yummy and it doesn't taste weird or smells funky unlike the collagen jelly stick. I also like the consistency of this more because it has a true jelly-like texture. I forgot that I'm taking placenta and just eating jelly for dessert. Yum!

Product Review: Otsuka Placenta C Jelly Review
     
     I'm expecting this product to be effective since it has around 4,000+ mg of collagen per serving. The average dosage of placenta extract is around 4,000-5,000 mg a day for it to be effective so this one did not fail on that part. It also contains a small amount of collagen so yay for the anti-aging department as it gives a little boost on that. Should I say placenta and collagen combined gives great results? Look at my photo below, no makeup only eyeliner on my eyelids. You can still see my Hori's nevus that I thought to be freckles, there's a pimple on my forehead, large pores on my nose but my face looks glowing and blooming even if I only have 4 hours of sleep. 

Product Review: Otsuka Placenta C Jelly Review

What I like:
  • Otsuka Placenta Jelly C is Japan FDA approved.
  • The packaging- it's very handy and travel-friendly.
  • It's wrapped individually, convenient to bring anytime, anywhere.
  • This jelly stick form of placenta can be eaten any time of the day. It's perfect for snacks or dessert because it has a fruity flavor. I like the flavor of this, it's mango but there's a peach aftertaste. 
  • Best paired with glutathione to boost and speed up the whitening process. But this one can also whiten the skin alone and give it a pinkish tone.
  • I didn't experience any discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts or whatsoever.
  • Otsuka Placenta C Jelly made my skin glowing even if there were times that I only have 4 hours of sleep.
  • Gave me a smooth and supple skin during the time I'm taking this jelly. 
  • My skin looks healthy and shiny- not the 'oil' type of shine, if you may ask.
  • Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package.

What I don't like:
  • The price- a bit steep for budget-conscious individuals.
  • Not easily accessible.

Will I purchase? Yes, I'll maintain this supplement as I love the taste and the results on my skin. It's also an anti-aging and whitening product in one, so it's worth every peso.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 5/5 rating. The pictures don't lie. During the time I'm taking Otsuka Placenta C Jelly, I can go out with minimal or no makeup for reals! I highly recommend this product if you want to try anti-aging and whitening supplement in one. Since this already in jelly stick form, taking placenta is now enjoyable.

     As for other results in the anti-aging department like fewer wrinkles or fine lines, I think it will follow if Otsuka Placenta C Jelly is taken for months. I have a great experience while taking this product and if asked, I will maintain this in my anti-aging supplements.
