Biorè UV Sunscreens for Cool Summer Days!

     I admire Japanese women because most of them have beautiful skin. Aside from their lifestyle and healthy diet, they give so much importance to their skin care routine and use products that contains the purest of all ingredients. I've read somewhere that they have ten to eleven steps in their skin care routine morning and evening. That's way beyond my skin care routine and sometimes I wonder if putting too much on their face literally give them a 'heavy' feel.

     One of the most important steps in our skin care routine is the application of sunblock and sunscreens everyday! Some women don't value UV products because they don't care walking under the sun. If you have medium or dark skin tone, don't be confident that you don't need sunblocks and sunscreens because aside from preventing your skin to get dark and burned, these products protects you from aging and skin cancer. Going back to Japanese products, one of the best-selling UV products in Japan recently arrived and wanted us to experience Cool Summer Days.

Sample Room's BBQ Cookout Party

     For some, summer is the perfect season because they get to enjoy the sea, sand, and sun. I have a love-hate relationship with summer; I love it because this season is the season where I best enjoy "halo-halo" and other frozen treats. I hate it because I'm afraid to bask under the sun for I get sunburn immediately. But this "hate" thing with summer came to an end when I joined Sample Room's BBQ Cookout Party. 

     I'm really thankful that Sample Room invited me to this event because I came to realize that there's nothing to worry about having fun under the sun as long as you're protected with products that blocks harmful UVA/UVB rays. I discovered one brand that carries different kind of sun protection products and from what I experienced during the event, I can truly say that their sunscreens are effective!

Product Review: Nisce Superblock SPF 80

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 :)
