Product Review: Relumins Glutathione 1000 mg

Thursday, April 12, 2018

     Hello dearies! I've been receiving questions about the best glutathione brands that I've tried to date. Among the brands that I've reviewed, I always recommend three to four brands based on their price, ingredients, and effects on my skin. These brands are tried and tested and many swears by their effects too. 

      Today, I'll be sharing another promising brand that I will include on my recommendation list. If you're NOT allergic to ALA (alpha lipoic acid) then rejoice now because of Relumins Glutathione 1000 mg or Relumins Gluta-1000 has the highest ALA content among the brand that I've tried. Alpha Lipoic Acid is one of the best glutathione boosters because it gives a beautiful glow and according to Livestrong, it is 400 times stronger than vitamin C and E. Check out my thoughts on this Relumins Glutathione variant below.

Product Review: Snow DD Cream Ultra-Light Perfect Foundation Sunscreen SPF50 PA+++

Tuesday, April 03, 2018

     From bb cream, to cc cream, and now it's dd cream. If you're a beauty junkie, prolly you know what bb or beauty blemish and cc or color correct creams play in the beauty department. These makeup products were introduced in the market years ago and Koreans are at the forefront of this makeup trend.

     A BB cream is a makeup product that has skincare benefits. Some describe it as lighter than foundation but heavier for a tinted moisturizer and most of the brands available gives full coverage. On the other hand, CC cream is a color correction cream that can hide redness and other skin imperfections thus it's lighter than bb cream as it corrects than conceals. Now enter DD cream which stands for "disguise and diminish" or daily defense according to beauty gurus who have tried one. Today, I'll be sharing my thoughts on Snow DD Cream that was sent to me by cheskasstore.net for a review.

Friday, March 02, 2018

     Hello dearies! I'm back with another feature and review. If you're a long-time reader of this blog, prolly you know that I'm a makeup junkie- a fan of lipsticks, eyeliners, and bb cushions. If there are new products on the market to try, my lipstick loving heart is always ready to do a swatch.

     Earlier this week, I received makeup goodies from Fashion 21 and my heart skipped a beat when I saw lipsticks inside. It's the newest line from Fashion 21- Permanent Matte Lipstick! They also sent their Pressed Powder with Cucumber Extract that comes in 3 shades. To know more about Fashion 21 and these products, read more below :)

It was to offer to Filipinas a new brand of imported, good quality and long-lasting makeup at an affordable price. It was dubbed as a brand that showcases world-class products that would fit the woman of the next decade.

     Fashion 21 Matte Permanent Lipstick has a velvety texture. It glides smoothly on my lips upon application. It is very pigmented and goes opaque on my lips after two swipes. I like that it's crayon-type because it makes application of lipstick on the outer corner of my lips easy.

Product Review: Haenim UV Sterilizer

Saturday, February 03, 2018

     The advancement of technology is inevitable. From simple things to the complicated and unexplainable ones, the truth is everything is possible. When we speak of technology, the first thing that comes to mind is gadget followed by appliances and devices that are brought about by the innovation of science and technology. We are lucky because these things make life easy. 

     From the gadget that we use to communicate, the appliances that we use to help us get through the day and the devices that make our work simpler. Living in the present world has its perks and for a 24/7 mom like me, nothing beats the help of modern technology. Think of microwave oven, vacuum cleaner, air conditioner and automatic washer, these appliances make life a breeze. Speaking of appliances, have you heard of UV sterilizer? If not, I'll introduce you to one of the most technologically advanced appliances that I have at home- HAENIM UV STERILIZER!

Product Review: AVON True Color Perfectly Matte Lipstick Line

Monday, January 29, 2018

     Avon will always hold a special place in my heart because it's the first beauty brand that was introduced to me by my mom when I was in high school. My first lip product from Avon was their strawberry lip balm. I presume that 90's kids will agree with me that it's addicting because of the flavor and the scent.

     Fast forward today, Avon is known for all thing beauty especially for their makeup line that caters to all Filipina. Last year, Avon Philippines sent the 20 gorgeous shades of their Avon True Color Perfectly Matte Lipstick line. I will just make this introduction short. Photos, swatches, and my thoughts below :)

Product Review: NEW Meiji Amino Collagen Starter Kit [DISCONTINUED]

Tuesday, January 16, 2018

     Hello, collagen supplement lovers! The most loved collagen brand- Meiji launched a new and improved version of their Amino Collagen that we all love. My heart skipped when I saw the new packaging but I panicked when I saw that they reduced the collagen content to only 1,000 mg per scoop. From 5,000 mg, now it's down to a small amount BUT it's still effective like the old one.

     So if you're in search of the fountain of youth, Meiji is one of the brands that I'll recommend. It's effective and easy on the budget. Cheskas Store sent a 30-day supply of the New and Improved Meiji Amino Collagen for me to try and share my thoughts if it's worth the reformulation. More information Meiji Amino Collagen Starter Kit below :)

Product Review: Vitapack Facial Mask (Collagen + Arbutin + Q10 Perfecting Peptide)

Thursday, December 07, 2017

     There are so many facial masks available on the market today. It's easy to buy all the kinds and variants as most of the skin care brands (local and international) are offering facial masks that target different skin problems

     You can find whitening, anti-aging, anti-acne, hydrating, glowing, and the list goes on for facial masks. When looking for a mask, I make sure that it's affordable, multifunction, and easy to use. The facial masks that I've tried before range from cheap to expensive ones but only a few give great results. I think I found another mask that will always be on my essential list. Meet Vitapack Facial Mask (Collagen + Arbutin + Q10 Perfecting Peptide), the mask that I will never get tired of using and will highly recommend to whiten, moisturize, and give an instant glow on your skin.

Product Review: Goodal Keratina Anti-Aging Double Serum Light

Monday, December 04, 2017

     Taking care of aging skin is not a walk in the park. You have to address different skin care issues in the aging department. Think of wrinkles, premature wrinkles, uneven skin tone, rough and dry texture, sagging skin, sunspots, melasma, and others that need to be taken care of seriously.

     I started incorporating anti-aging products into my skin care routine in my early 30's. I've tried a handful of products from cleansers, moisturizers, serums, masks, and eye creams from the local and international brand and I can say that the more religious I apply these products, the more I see the effects. When it comes to hydrating the skin, I only use either moisturizing gel or serum. My current fave is Goodal Keratina Anti-Aging Double Serum Light which I'll be reviewing below :)

Product Review: Vitapack 8-in-1 Whitening Lotion

Friday, November 24, 2017

     Hi dearies! It's been a year since the last time I reviewed a whitening lotion. I have this thing of using a brand religiously for months or years if I experienced positive results. If you'll look into my whitening lotion review archive, you'll only see a few brands because most of the brands that I've tried are cost-effective.

     If you're really serious in your whitening game, taking glutathione supplement is not enough especially if you want to see drastic results. In fact, a combination of different whitening products for the whole body is recommended for daily use to see faster and maximum results. Have you read my review of Vitapack Megawhite and Vitapack Beauty? These products from Vitapack are cost-effective and if taken religiously, you'll see promising results. To complement those supplements, the brand also has Vitapack 8-in-1 Whitening Lotion. See my full review below.

Product Review: MEYER Purple 2 Piece Set Cookware

Wednesday, November 15, 2017

     I presume that you already know that I don't cook. If you're following me on Instagram, there's a hashtag #kathinthekitchen but it's really the hubby who is cooking in the kitchen. My husband is the king of our kitchen and I'm proud of that but when it comes to buying kitchen essentials, I'm the queen :) I'm the one who decides what to buy especially with cookware.

     Months ago, we decided to renovate our kitchen to the theme that we really like. New kitchen means new kitchen essentials. First up, cookware. It's hard to decide what brand to buy because there's literally a lot but when it comes to trusted brands, there's only a handful and one of them is MEYER. Look like the heavens have heard what I needed and MEYER Cookware Philippines sent the MEYER Purple 2 Piece Set Cookware for us to try. Sharing my thoughts on this cookware set after the jump.

Product Review: Vitapack 3-in-1 Beauty Pack

Monday, November 06, 2017

     Multifunction products make life a breeze. From things we use every day to food that we eat- these products dubbed as 2-in-1 or 5-in 1 is a big help, especially for busy individuals. Having that said, there are also skin care products and oral supplements that can give more than one benefits in one packaging. Let me introduce to you Vitapack 3-in-1 Beauty Pack- whitening, slimming, and anti-aging product in one pack.

     I always mention in my supplement posts that I already have fair skin, to begin with, that's why I gauge the results after taking it for full thirty days. I have uneven skin tone and prone to insect bites. Through the dark marks from those bites where I check regularly if my skin tone is changing while taking whitening supplements. Last month, our friends from Vitapack sent the 3-in-1 Beauty Pack variant for me to try and review. Continuation of this introduction after the jump :)

Product Review: Ishigaki Amino Classic White formerly Ishigaki Advanced Ultra White

Monday, September 18, 2017

    Hi dearies! I'm sure that you've heard the news that Ishigaki Glutathione is now FDA Approved. Aside from the certification from FDA, the variants have been repackaged, reformulated, and there's a seal that says "authentic".

     I received a lot of queries on my review of the previous Ishigaki Advanced Ultra White if the new Ishigaki Amino Classic White has the same whitening and glowing effect after finishing one bottle. Will the new variant give the same creamy or almost translucent complexion and faster results in as early as 2 weeks?

Product Review: Scott's DHA Gummies

Wednesday, September 13, 2017

     Kenzo's vitamin c brand is Scott's Vitamin C pastilles. He likes mixed berries flavor so much that's why we always buy the one in a plastic bottle containing 50 pastilles good for 25 days since he's taking 2 pastilles every day. While shopping for other grocery items, I already saw Scott's DHA Gummies on the shelves but did not bother looking closely because I thought it's the same vitamin c or maybe they repackaged it.

     Weeks ago, I was so surprised when I received the exact Scott's Vitamins I saw on the grocery shelves. It's not a reformulated or repackaged vitamin c pastilles because it's the newest offering from Scott's- their DHA Gummies. More information about Scott's DHA Gummies and initial review below.

Product Review: Cathy Doll Nude Me Liquid Lip Matte

Monday, September 11, 2017

     Matte lipstick sells like hot cakes because of their long-lasting formula and a wide selection of colors available in the market. International and local brands offer matte lipstick in different formulations and the trending formula now is the liquid matte variant.

     Months ago, Cathy Doll Philippines sent makeup goodies from their Nude Me collection. My eyes were glued in the liquid lip matte lipstick because I've read beauty bloggers gave positive reviews on Cathy Doll's latest lipstick collection. Cathy Doll sent 6 shades and it's a love at first swipe. See photos, swatches, and my thoughts on Cathy Doll Nude Me Liquid Lip Matte below.

Product Review: DHC Collagen

Monday, August 28, 2017

     I've known the brand DHC for a long time now because my cousin who lives in Japan said that it's a good brand. It's a brand of cheap yet effective food supplements ranging from nutritional, whitening, and anti-aging ones. They also have skin care products like the infamous DHC Cleansing Oil and DHC Eyelash Tonic.

     Anyhoo, Cheska's Online Store sent me the trending supplement from DHC as of the moment- DHC Collagen last month to try. Collagen supplement is perfect for my age and it's one of the supplements that I need now as collagen production in the mid 30's starts to decline. Sharing with you my thoughts on DHC Collagen after the jump

Product Review: Althea Petal Velvet Powder

Monday, August 21, 2017

     It's been ages since the last time I used a translucent powder to set my bb cream. I'm a fan of powder foundation because of extra coverage and finish. Last July, Althea Korea secretly selected bloggers to get the first dibs on their Althea Petal Velvet Powder. This finishing powder was launched early this month and upon reaching our doorstep, I've decided to use it immediately.

     So what is Althea Petal Velvet Powder? According to their website, it is Althea's very own product range and the Petal Velvet Powder is the first from the line. This is a translucent powder that sets makeup and leaves behind a silky finish to the touch. Infused with oil from Althea seeds, this powder works to keep sebum production at bay without drying out the skin for a radiant, fresh look, all while giving out a gentle scent. After using it for a week, read my thoughts after the jump :)

Product Review: Cream Silk Customized Solutions

Saturday, August 19, 2017

     Cream Silk is one of the favorite brands of conditioner in our family. I have three sisters and all of us uses Cream Silk daily. I also have another sister-in-law who swears by Cream Silk. Every time we do our grocery shopping, different Cream Silk variants were inside our shopping basket.

     I have straight but frizzy and dry hair due to coloring. One of my sisters has wavy hair. While the other two have long straight black hair. Can you guess what variants of Cream Silk we are using? In other news, Cream Silk unveiled their biggest and most beautiful transformation yet with the launch of its new range of Customized Solutions. I presume you've seen the commercial ad this week and seven modern Filipinas represents each variant. More information about Cream Silk Customized Solutions and review of my favorite variant- Cream Silk Standout Straight after the jump :)

Product Review: Ultra Green Coffee

Wednesday, August 09, 2017

     Losing and maintaining weight is only a cup of coffee away. Well, that's what Ultra Green Coffee has known for aside from the fact that it has other health and wellness benefits. Cheskas Online Store sent me three pouches of Ultra Green Coffee to try and after taking this for roughly a month, I'm sharing my thoughts below.

     Why I accepted this even though I have a normal weight? Well, it's because I want to maintain that weight and stay away from instant coffees sold in the market. I also want to complement my diet and exercise with a natural supplement like this slimming coffee because I have the tendency to gain weight easily and I have a sweet tooth. So without further ado, here's my take on Ultra Green Coffee :)

Product Review: Star White Glutasure

Wednesday, August 02, 2017

     Hi dearies! Thank you so much for reading my glutathione reviews. I know it's hard to choose a brand because there are so many to choose from. There are three things to consider in choosing the best brand for you- ingredients, price, and effect. That's why I always stress that what works for me may not work for you or vice versa.

     Taking glutathione alone will not work if you have dark or morena/o skin tone to begin with. Another factor that you should always take into consideration is lifestyle change. Once you take glutathione, you have to cut all your vices, use sunblock everyday, avoid sun exposure, and other things that will result in skin darkening. I'm sharing a quick review of the latest brand that Cheskas Online Store sent last month- Star White Glutasure.  See my thoughts below :)

Before and after using Biorè URU URU 2in1 Cleanser

     Biorè URU URU 2in1 Cleanser is really fun to use because of the foamy and creamy texture. I only need a single pump for light makeup. It has a rich lather and thick lather and doesn't cause friction when applying all over the face. it made my skin soft, smooth and radiant after cleansing. If you're using a heavy and waterproof mascara, you may opt to use the cleansing oil first before washing your face with this cleanser. I only wish there's a refill bag for this since the bottle is sturdy enough and will last a long time so it would be economical if they have refills instead of buying another bottle.

Biorè Cleansing Oil

     Gentle makeup cleansing oil that washes away stubborn makeup, even waterproof mascara. An oil-based makeup remover that has an excellent cleansing ability that makes makeup removal so quick and easy. If you apply heavy makeup every day, or you like creating makeup up pegs, this product saves time and effort removing layers of makeup. It removes waterproof mascara easily and lifts away dirt and skin impurities.

A little amount of Biorè Cleansing Oil goes a long way!

     I veered away from cleansing oil because I find it too thick for my combination skin. Since I don't use heavy makeup, I'm okay with cleansing wipes and facial foam cleansers. But I have to try and see if this cleansing oil lives true to the claims so I tested Biorè Cleansing Oil last week. I was surprised that Biorè's formulation is not heavy on my face, a little goes a long way and dissolves makeup quickly especially waterproof mascara. The only thing I noticed that it stings my sensitive eyes during application. It has a subtle fruity scent which is a plus for me because I also have a sensitive nose.

     This lightweight yet effective makeup remover lifts off makeup and dirt from pores, leaving skin soft and moist feeling.

Product Review: Biorè Cleansing Line- Oil Cotton Facial Sheets, URU URU 2in1 Cleanser, Cleansing Oil, and Micellar Water + GIVEAWAY!!!

     Drum roll please... my newest fave! At first, I thought I broke out using this but after using this alone to remove my HG (holy grail) makeup, I found out that the culprit is the Shiseido Foundation that I'm also road-testing. Anyhoo, this makeup remover is one for the books. It's Oil-free, fragrance-free, alcohol-free, colorant free, non-comedogenic, allergy and ophthalmologist tested.

See all the makeup and dirt from my waterproof mascara. Don't freak out, those are mascara fibers and not my lashes :)

     What I love about Biorè Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil Control Formula (for my combination skin)- its made from natural mineral water, super gentle on skin, did not break me out, no sting on my sensitive eyes, made my skin soft and supple. It has collagen, and in long time use can make pores looks smaller. Though the price may not be budget friendly, it lives up to its promise.
