Product Review: MET Tathione Glutathione Supplement

Wednesday, April 29, 2015

     Ever wonder why there are light and fair-skinned individuals who still consider taking glutathione as one of their daily supplements? I'm not sure if you will agree with me but not all 'mapuputi' have clear, flawless, porcelain, and glowing skin. Some women have pale white skin that is not flattering to look at. It's like they look 'sick' because their skin is pale and paperwhite. If you're to going to choose, do you like pale white skin or glowing white skin from within? Let's change your idea of whitening with the new Met Tathione Reduced Glutathione with Algatrium Dietary Supplement.

     I presume all of you already know what glutathione is. It is considered as a food supplement here in our country while in Japan and other countries, it is a medicine that can cure serious illnesses. Our body is producing glutathione naturally but as we age, the production of glutathione slows down that's why our immune system weakens. Glutathione is called the master anti-oxidant as it protects our body from free radicals. The whitening effect is the known side effect of glutathione :) I learned so many things about glutathione during our meeting with Dra. Cecille- Met's resident doctor. To know more about the new Met Tathione and why despite the price, I will still highly recommend it to everyone who wants to experience whitening at its finest :) More information after the jump!

Product Review: MET Tathione Glutathione Supplement
     
Met Tathione is a well-known brand of glutathione here in the Philippines. I can say they're one of the pioneer brands that's been commercially sold in pharmacies, drugstores, and beauty stores nationwide. When you say glutathione, the first brand that will come to your mind is MET, right? I've known this brand years ago but wasn't able to try it since I've read so-so reviews about the effects. 

     My cousin has tried Met Tathione years ago with the first formulation and swears with the effects on her body as a whole, she took this not only to whiten skin but to strengthen her immune system. Even though Met Tathione had received some negative reviews in the past, I still believe that premium brands will give great results. Always remember that results vary from one individual to another, the effect of whitening may be fast or slow depending on the individual's body. If you smoke, drink, and have more toxins in the body from environmental pollution, chances are there will be a slower effect since the glutathione will protect you first from those free-radicals then with continued use of glutathione let's say for two more or more, the whitening effect will be seen slowly but surely.

Met is a brand under Ivi Ryo Corporation. It is the pioneering brand of glutathione that brings you the latest in whitening: Algatrium. This product innovation makes Met Tathione three times more effective than the previous formulation in bringing out that radiant glow in your skin. 

     It works from the inside out, giving you evenly toned and lighter, glowing skin in as little as two weeks. One capsule contains a potent formula of reduced glutathione and an imported new antioxidant called Algatrium. 

These are the benefits you can get from taking Met Tathione on a daily basis:
  • MET helps strengthen the immune system, removes toxins from the liver, boosts sexual potency, and protects the body from free radical damage.
  • Reduced glutathione is the main ingredient in Met Tathione products. It is the safe and most potent form of glutathione that we need in our bodies.
  • Glutathione is often referred to as the master antioxidant. It has many benefits that prevent oxidative stress in cells. 
  • The Met glow is not just from the skin but also from the overall benefit of glutathione throughout the body. 
  • Glutathione (Met Tathione) keeps the body healthy. Can prevent cancer, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis in the long run. This product can help lessen the impact of age-related degenerative disease in the body.
  • White glowing skin from inside and out!

After 1 month of taking Met Tathione, my skin is visibly glowing even though I only have 3-4 hours of sleep. The photo below was taken around 5 p.m. The lighting wasn't able to show how fair my skin is but there's a pinkish glow in my arms. NO FILTER!

Product Review: MET Tathione Glutathione Supplement

What I like: 
  • Met Tathione glutathione is FDA approved. 
  • The packaging is so classy. I like that it is repackaged in a minimalist design. The design of the box and bottle packaging exudes what high-quality Japan-made products look like. The box is sealed with plastic and the bottle opening is well-sealed also. 
  • The new Met Tathione is also available in two-capsule sachets. Great for trips. No need to worry about the extra bottle in your baggage.
  • The new Met Tathione is in liquid soft gel capsule form- this kind of capsule is easily absorbed by the body, unlike the regular capsule.
  • This liquid soft gel capsule doesn't have a funky or weird smell. 
  • The new Met Tathione is now combined with Algatrium, a component that can triple the glutathione production in the body. It is one of the most potent boosters available in the market today. Algatrium is a patented antioxidant found only in Met, first in the country making Met three times more effective!
  • I did not complain of discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts, or whatsoever while taking this supplement.
  • No need to take a separate Vitamin C to boost the glutathione. Algatrium is more potent and will make absorption faster. So if you're acidic, this glutathione brand is for you. No need to worry about Vitamin C and the absorption of glutathione in your body.
  • Met Tathione glutathione made my skin glow. There are times that I only have 2-3 hours of sleep at night but 
  • This brand made me feel sleepy which is good for me because I have a hard time falling asleep at night. 
  • I always wake up feeling refreshed and energized. 
  • My skin looks luminous, especially in daylight. 
  • Made my skin less oily. 
  • Made my skin supple and plump. 
  • It lessened cystic pimples popping around my chin which I experience every month. 
  • No weight gain, bloating, or unruly cravings. I also look after what I eat so I guess the worry of gaining weight depends on the individual. I also exercise before I sleep.
  • I have a small scratch on my knee became a scar. Taking Met Tathione plus applying my favorite whitening lotion lightened the scar a bit but I can say taking the glutathione made the skin renewal faster than usual. Since I have fair skin, the scar is noticeable but after taking Met Tathione, the dark scar became less visible.
  • Batch, manufacturing, and expiry date printed on the package. 
  • Easily accessible.

What I don't like:
  • The price is steep for budget-conscious individuals and those with a tight budget. 

Will I purchase? Yes! 

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.75/5 rating. I'm happy with the results that I've experienced with Met Tathione after taking it for a full month. I take the capsules in two divided doses because according to Dra. Cecille, absorption of glutathione is better in divided doses than popping it all at once. No need to take Vitamin C because Algatrium will boost the absorption of glutathione in the body faster. Fewer pills to pop because of that too. 

     This post is getting lengthy already and I have more things to share. Comment all your questions and I'll base my answers according to what Dra. Cecille explained to us :) I'm relieved that there will be professional advice or backup for those who want to take glutathione but are afraid of ingesting food supplements/medicine inside their body. 

Good Times!~

Product Review: Natura Organics Miracle Fluid

Monday, April 27, 2015

     Hello dearies! Here's a review of Natura Organics Fluid Miracle that made my contact dermatitis subside after five days of use. I'm planning to use this product as a face moisturizer but the need to treat the non-stop itchiness of my upper back arise so I tested this miracle in a bottle on that part. This product is very promising because it can be used from head to toe! By the way, the irritation/allergic reaction that I have on my upper back came from a cloth tag. I know you can relate when I say cloth tags can irk you and the only thing you have in mind is to cut them right? Or else, suffer the consequence like skin irritation. Since I've been scratching my back from time to time, I've developed small wound like scratches five days ago but with this product, it's almost gone :)

      If you're intrigued with this miracle fluid well in AYURVEDA, this unique blend of oils and herbs is formulated to help skin look young and healthy. It helps illuminate skin color, smooth fine lines, cool and cleanse while helping clear blemishes. Liquorice, an antiseptic, protects against bacterial and fungal infections. It also helps improve skin texture. To know more information about Natura Organics Miracle Fluid, click CONTINUE READING now!

Biorè UV Sunscreens for Cool Summer Days!

Friday, April 24, 2015

     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. Wanna know how you will experience a summer like no other with Biorè UV? Click CONTINUE READING now!

David's Salon x Honda Biker Beauty Event

Wednesday, April 22, 2015

    Last Friday, I was invited to experience an afternoon of pampering sesh by David's Salon and Honda Philippines Inc.  The Biker Beauty: David's Salon x Honda Pampering Day was a collaboration by two of the country's best in transportation and salon industry. David's Salon is the default slash go-to salon of my family. We made frequent trips to their SM City Fairview branch for our much needed hair cut. My sister also had her hair rebonded there once.

     So when I received a short notice invite, I got so excited and asked the hubby to allow me to attend the event. He's persistent because we have agreed upon that no more events for the rest of that week. Since I also need a new hair color because the color of my roots were so noticeable already, I insisted him that I want to try the salon's hair coloring service. I'm so happy that I never doubted David's Salon's hair color service because in our experience with their hair cut, it's always a thumbs up!
