Product Review: Be Organic Papaya Kojic Soap

     On my trip to Robinson's Galleria a month ago, I saw a big kiosk of SESOU store. It's a store where you can buy everything organic, from head to toe! They also sell general cleaning items and other stuff that's environment friendly. This is the store where I first met my favorite All Organics Soaps that I still purchase from time to time. I was looking for my favorite All Organics Calamansi variant that time but it's OOS. I was contemplating if I'll get another fave, the Singkamas variant or try another organic brand. Well, trying another brand can be risky for me now since my skin's condition these past few days was very sensitive. Breakouts here and there and my old skin care regimen seems not working anymore. So even though I was skeptical on trying an new organic brand, I still pursued buying one from Be Organic. 

     My skin concerns as of the moment are tiny bumps like whiteheads that will turn into zits after a few days, rough and dry cheeks and some oiliness on my chin and nose. I know that the cause of this is hormonal. I already went to my OB-Gynecologist to have a general check up. Anyhoo, there are four variants of Be Organic soap that time and I have my eyes glued on the Papaya Kojic soap. I was brave enough to try kojic soap because I already tried this variant of soap from different brands before. What's new to me is the combination of Papaya and Kojic.  I've been using the soap for more than three weeks now and the results are erratic. I guess the effects on my skin is not because of the soap but mainly the hormonal changes that I've been going through.

Product Review: Nivea Intensive Moisture Body Milk

     Hello dearies! Time for another review. It's nice to be back after how many days of just posting pr's and giveaways. My apologies for not updating lately because I'm not feeling well these past few days. Anyhoo, lets go back to the basic idea why we need to use lotion. This product review is meant for this coming season where our weather changes from wet to dry. Ber months means we're nearing Christmas and the atmosphere will be cold specially at night. When the weather gets cold, I know most of us experienced dry skin. Dry skin can be itchy and in most cases can lead to flaky skin. We need a heavy duty moisturizing lotion to keep our skin soft and smooth to touch. Thanks to Nivea for sending this over last January, dry skin is not a problem now. 

Long-lasting and intensive care for dry to very dry skin.

L'Oreal Korean Style Bloggers' Event #LorealKoreanStyle

     If there's a girl club dubbed as NBSS (No-Boyfriend-Since-Birth), I'm prolly a member of another girl club called SHSB- Straight-Hair-Since-Birth! Straight hair don't care- but not anymore!  Having naturally straight hair for almost thirty years of my life made my life easier but boring. Every time I looked at my photos, I see my hair in just one two styles- either long straight or short straight. I never thought that other hairstyles will suit my round chubby face. I always fancy of having curls or permed hair way, way back before digital perming or Korean Style of hair came into the scene. Thanks to my past photo shoots because I experienced having wavy or curly hair even though it's temporary. I can say having soft, bouncy curls makes me look young and sexy! Haha! So when Mikki Galang of Castro PR invited me to try the #LOrealKoreanStyle hair, I prepared myself physically and emotionally because this will be the first time that my hair will have waves permanently!
