Product Review: Belo Baby Product Line #BeloBaby

Tuesday, May 03, 2016

     I believe in the saying that "Mothers know best." As a mom, I always wanted the best for my son. I always make sure to do my research first before buying and trying out products that my son will use everyday. I'm a meticulous person even before I got married. I check the labels of skin care products that I use and that makes me more knowledgeable of the ingredients that a product have.

     Baby's skin is so sensitive and using products that contain different chemicals may bring allergies and other skin-related problems. Their skin is so delicate and needs utmost care. When my son was still a baby, I always make sure to buy skin care products that are 100% natural but I always fail because some have hidden chemical ingredients that makes his skin so dry. Well, it's time to rejoice because Belo already has a baby! Belo Baby Skin Care Product Line to be exact :) More details about the product line below :)

L-R Clockwise: Belo Baby Hair and Body Wash, Belo Baby Cologne, Belo Baby Face and Body Lotion, Belo Baby Bar Soap
     I was so happy and excited the moment Belo Baby products reached our doorsteps. I immediately checked all the ingredients and to my surprise, yay to 100% natural ingredients and 0% harmful chemicals. Since Kenzo is turning 7 this June, I let him use the Belo Baby Bar Soap and Belo Baby Cologne in Cool Drizzle. I decided to let me nieces use the rest of the products like the Belo Baby Hair and Body Wash, Belo Baby Face and Body Lotion plus the remaining Belo Baby Cologne to see the effects on their skin. My nieces' skin are more sensitive because they are still babies (4-month and 11-month old). After a week of using the products, see their experiences after the jump!

     Your baby’s delicate skin needs to be kept in its purest form. Belo Baby guarantees that their products are clinically proven gentle on the skin for everyday use. Each ingredient was meticulously selected to ensure that it’s natural, safe and gentle for your baby. 
  • Cocoa Butter is an ingredient that contains antioxidant qualities that protect skin from the outside. It keeps the skin healthy by strengthening and deeply moisturizing it. With its anti-inflammatory properties, it also relieves common skin irritations like rashes. 
  • Shea Butter is a known superfood for the skin, as well as the hair. It heals, protects, nourishes, and moisturizes skin from damage and dryness. Because it is natural, gentle, and soft, it is suitable for all skin types especially the delicate and sensitive skin of babies. It naturally heals common skin conditions of babies like eczema and diaper rash. 
  • Sweet Almond Oil has the ability to lock moisture into the skin. It is also a good exfoliator to help remove dead skin cells and stimulate the development of healthier skin. It is generally safe for all skin types, including delicate baby skin.

Recommendation:

I had an allergy last week, in my neck which was very itchy and a little scaly. I applied Belo Baby Face and Body Lotion and after two days, the itchiness and redness subsided already. 

     So I'm encouraging all moms and moms-to-be to try this product line from Belo Baby! I'm giving it a thumbs up! Yes, these products are highly recommended by yours truly after letting my 4-month old, 11-month old nieces to try the products and to my son who is turning 7 years old this June. My son loves the Belo Baby Bar Soap and Belo Baby Cologne in cool drizzle. #BeloBaby products ensures you that it is crafted with care for the most delicate skin, for the most meticulous moms.

Product Review: Olay Skin Whitening Bars- Rose and Milk, Papaya, Vitamin C

Monday, May 02, 2016

     Taking care of our skin is not easy because aside from our daily habits, finding the right products that will maintain our skin healthy is very important. There's also another important habit that we need to practice- using the product religiously and sticking to the regimen if it's effective.

     But skin care becomes more complicated when our skin care goals change overtime like for example we always stay under the sun resulting to uneven skin tone and worst developing dark spots in some parts of our body. When these problems arise, we need to change our skin care regimen and try other brands that will be as effective like before. There's a #OneWashWonder that everyone's talking about and it was already revealed! Details about this promising skin care product below :)
Product Review: Olay Skin Whitening Bars- Rose and Milk, Papaya, Vitamin C
     We have different skin types and skin care needs. In this age and time, many Filipinas want to achieve fair and even skin tone. I presume that most Filipinas have tried different skin whitening products. These women use whitening soaps and experience a tingling and stinging sensation thinking that this is a sign of efficacy. Beauty does not have to mean pain, especially when it may be doing more harm to the skin than good. 
Product Review: Olay Skin Whitening Bars- Rose and Milk, Papaya, Vitamin C
     Weeks ago, I was invited to the launch of the World’s No. 1 Facial Skin Care Brand- Olay that provides skin care products to address every skin care need, including whitening. I received a super pretty invitation and I have no idea about it. During the launch beauty enthusiasts and beauty bloggers gathered to witness the unveiling of that #OneWashWonder and Olay revealed itself to be the #OneWashWonder that promises fair, radiant skin without the pain.

Olay Skin Whitening Bar in Rose and Milk 
     Olay unveils the new Olay Skin Whitening Bar, which 8 out of 10 Filipinas agree helps to whiten skin from the very first use. To share her experience about Olay Skin Whitening Bars, Valerie Weigmann talked about Olay and why she is recommending it to Filipinas who wants to achieve fair skin with continued use and to see a difference from the first wash.

Radio DJ and Lifestyle Blogger- with Beauty Queen Valerie Weigmann
It’s no wonder that the new Olay is quickly winning over fans, including beauty queen, model and entrepreneur Valerie Weigmann. “Getting and maintaining fair skin has never been easier,” she shares. 
Why choose the New Olay Skin Whitening Bar? Here are the claims and its benefits:

  • It has a Triple Whitening System that gently exfoliates, brightens and evens the skin tone. 
  • It even contains 90% of the active ingredient found in Olay Natural White Day Cream
  • It is also dermatologically and clinically tested to be gentle on skin with naturally-derived ingredients like rose, pearl and milk extracts. 
  • It also has a longer lasting scent and a rich lather that leaves skin soft, smooth and moisturized. 
  • With the new Olay Skin Whitening Bar, fair skin does not have to be a long or painful process anymore.
  • Olay proves that this #OneWashWonder can be both effective and gentle.

     Get natural white skin from first use. Discover the #OneWashWonder for yourself today. I was amazed that after my first use, I saw and felt something different in my skin. I've tried the Rose and Milk variant on my hands and saw my palms glowing. What more if I use it in my body right?
Product Review: Olay Skin Whitening Bars- Rose and Milk, Papaya, Vitamin C
Olay Skin Whitening Bar with Rose and Milk on my hands. Tried washing my hands during the event and yes, there's a different kind of glow on my hands after.
     And because I really wanted to see that there's more positive effects to that #OneWashWonder when you use Olay Skin Whitening Bar, I partnered with Olay to review the product and continued using the Olay Skin Whitening Bar with Rose and Milk variant at home. After one week of continued use, I can say that my skin is soft, smooth, and glowing. Of course I haven't seen any drastic change in my skin tone because one week is not enough knowing that I have a fair skin.
Product Review: Olay Skin Whitening Bars- Rose and Milk, Papaya, Vitamin C
      But what's promising about the New Olay Skin Whitening Bars are the results after one wash like soft, smooth, and literally glowing skin which looks like glitters are dusted all over my body. I can also attest that my skin feels squeaky clean after use.

What I like:

  • The packaging is simple but dainty and pretty. You can read and see the information about the variant of the soap that's inside the box.
  • The price- it's very affordable!
  • I like the scent of rose and milk and vitamin c variant. The first one has a subtle rose scent while the latter is mild fruity.
  • It produces a rich and creamy lather.
  • My skin feels squeaky clean after each use.
  • It's easy to rinse.
  • My skin feels soft and smooth to touch after use.
  • I can literally see a glow, like what I've said above there's a glittery-like glow on my skin.
  • I also feel refreshed after taking a bath. Not sure if there's an ingredient that gives a little cooling effect.
  • No irritation, breakouts, or whatsoever.
  • The soap doesn't melt easily.
  • There's a batch and expiry date stamped on the box packaging.
  • It's easily accessible.
  • There are three variants to choose from, all are intended to beautify the skin gently.

What I don't like:

  • My sensitive nose dislikes the  papaya variant but I think it's just me because my sister and my mom likes that scent.

Will I repurchase: Yes, it's in the realm of possibility.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. This rating goes for the rose and milk variant. I'll be testing the two variants in the next days and the variant with Vitamin C looks promising too as there's a natural ingredient known to whiten the skin- Morus Root Alba Extract (White Mulberry). I can say that the soap is okay in revealing my natural white skin after a week. It's good in exfoliating dead skin cells and in maintaining my skin tone even if I'm always out under the sun. Of course I still use my favorite sunblock.

     I'll keep using the remaining rose and milk variant for now as I'm loving the effects on my skin. The New Olay Skin Whitening Bar promises natural white skin from first use and in my observation is an effective yet gentle solution to whiten tired and uneven skin. 

Have you tried the new Olay Skin Whitening Bars? What's your favorite variant?

Good Times!~

Save My Bag with Kiana Valenciano x Daryl Feril Collection Launch

Sunday, May 01, 2016

     Last week, I was invited to the launch of another first in the fashion industry- the ‘it’ bag crafted entirely in Bergamo, Italy — Save My Bag, designed for the cool and aspirational set by husband and wife tandem Stefano and Valentina Agazzi at SM Megamall.

     I've witnessed the unveiling of the latest collection by brilliant artists in the fashion industry. These talented individuals come up with a uniquely stylized collection that can be called a fashion revolution- Save My Bag with Kiana Valenciano x Daryl Feril Collection! See the story behind the collection and choose the design that fits your lifestyle below :)
Save My Bag with Kiana Valenciano x Daryl Feril Collection Launch
     Enter, then, Kiana Valenciano. After studying at the Raffles Design Institute and the prestigious Central Saint Martins in London (where the likes of Stella McCartney and John Galliano matriculated) and already an Instagram celeb in her own right, Kiana is excited to plunge into the glamorous world of fashion, armed with her knack in trend spotting and her fresh, free-spirited yet functional attitude. And for her most anticipated debut, Kiana takes on the reigns as style curator and creative team captain of a special, purely bespoke Save My Bag Collection — totally chic, uber trendy.
Save My Bag with Kiana Valenciano x Daryl Feril Collection Launch
     “The ‘cool beyond the rules’ philosophy of Save My Bag really fits my personality,” Kiana relates. ”And it’s this kind of mindset that I applied to this collection, along with the spirit of close creative teamwork.” 
     Joining her formidable team — her squad — is internationally acclaimed illustrator Daryl Feril (he was introduced to her by no less than eventologist Tim Yap) who is rendering his art to individualise the bags, which are ultra lightweight, rain proof, and made from hi-tech Poly-Lycra.

     Powering this collection is her singular vision: one of collaboration—interfacing with young, talented, Filipino visionaries with a global perspective, just like Feril, who has worked with top global brands and design studios in Asia, USA and Europe (among them LVMH and Tory Burch) and has been featured in Juxtapoz Magazine.

  • Daryl turned each and every bag into a unique canvas — allowing him to express his artistry freely. 
  • Lycra is a challenging fabric to work on, he experimented with different media in order to perfect his technique, and turned to Acrylic paint as his chosen medium. This ensures that the paint sticks to the surface for longevity.
  • The illustration style is very pretty which is a burst of floral, taking inspiration from nature which has some of the craziest patterns, colors and creatures. A collaborative effort, which Daryl took in inputs from Kiana.

Can Fairies Help You Find the Answers You’re Looking For?

Friday, April 29, 2016

     We all have times in life when we have to face certain decisions and decide which path to take. And it’s sometimes hard to know what to do, and for many people, when you’re making big choices it can feel that you’re in a lonely place.
Can Fairies Help You Find the Answers You’re Looking For?

     Fortunately, most of us have friends and family that we can reach out to for advice and for help at those momentous stages of life, but sometimes it can be even more helpful to see your situation from a more objective point of view.

     One way of doing this is to try a psychic reading. While people used to think of psychic readings as a way to make contact with loved ones who have died, today, readings are used in all kinds of circumstances and often as a way for someone to look at their life and get a different perspective on their choices.
Can Fairies Help You Find the Answers You’re Looking For?
image from: pixabay.com
     There are many different kinds of reading you can have today – tarot, psychic, medium, clairvoyant, astrology and angel - and thanks to the internet, it’s easy to arrange a reading at any time. Tarot readings come in different forms and fairy tarot readings can be an enlightening way to evaluate different situations in your life.

How fairy tarot can help

     Fairy tarot cards can provide insights when you are confused by what choices to make – and this can be in any aspect of life. For example, you may be deciding what to do about your job – whether to stay where you are and work towards a promotion, or to move to a new company. If you’re having relationship problems or deciding whether to move house, fairy tarot cards can often seem to offer clear guidance.

     As well as imagery, fairy tarot cards also have written headings and sub-descriptions so they can be easier to interpret than other tarot card decks. One example is the card Two of Summer – ‘Falling in love or making a serious commitment to someone. Forgiveness and the resolution of a problem. Don’t give up – your relationship can be healed.’ On first viewing, this card might seem to just be about love but it can also be interpreted as the forgiveness and resolution of a problem, or ending a disagreement between friends. Another fairy tarot card says ‘Goodbye to the old, hello to the new’. This card could be relevant for different situations you may be facing – perhaps you are making a decision about work or deciding on a house move.


     A fairy tarot reader will be able to guide you through the meaning of the cards, but after you’ve had a professional reading, you may also want to try out doing readings for yourself and for friends with your own fairy tarot deck. The more you use the cards, the greater your understanding of their meanings will become.

     Fairy tarot and other psychic readings can provide that fresh insights into your life and may help you in making life choices. Next time you’re not sure what path to take, try a reading to gain a wider view on your particular situation.

Product Review: AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion

Thursday, April 28, 2016

     Looks like there's another pimple and zit buster in town. Vida Nutriscience Inc., the makers of AcneCare Capsule and AcneCare Soap made their own version of Mario Badescu Drying Lotion but for a fraction of the cost. Last year, (yes, this is a long overdue post) Vida Nutriscience Inc. sent me the newest addition to their anti-acne skin care product line to try. I received boxes of AcneCare soap which I will just give a short shout out in this post as I haven't use a bar until now.

     This post will mainly focus on AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion which I presume that is receiving positive reviews from other bloggers who have tried it. I've been using this product once a month, pre-menstrual or post-menstrual period where one or two cystic pimples appear either on my chin or cheeks. By the way, I found out that this product is available at http://www.cheskasstore.net/ if it's always out of stock in other stores. So without further ado, here is my honest to goodness review of AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion.

Product Review: AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion
     
     AcneCare Drying Lotion is a fast acting, effective acne spot solution for all skin types. Here are the key ingredients:
  • Zinc Oxide- It helps clear up acneic skin due to sun's UV rays, pollution, harsh weather, dry air, bacteria, viruses, chemicals in personal care products, poor diet, stress, and lack of exercise can all damage skin on a daily basis.
  • Titanium Dioxide- An active ingredient that is used as a coloring agent, whitener, thickening agent, and sunscreen.

Product Review: AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion
L- small pimple, it's already on the 'hinog' stage.
R- how it looks like after application of AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion.

What I like:
  • The price is very affordable if I'll do the math because I only need a little amount to cover my zit/s.
  • A little amount goes a long way.
  • There's a minty and cooling sensation once the product is applied on my angry, reddish, and painful zit.
  • Doesn't burn or peel the site where I applied it.
  • Dries quickly upon application.
  • It can dry up a small pimple overnight.
  • There's a minty and cooling sensation that I felt upon application. It's soothing and can calm redness.
  • No further irritation, breakouts, or whatsoever.
  • Batch, manufacturing, expiration date printed on the bottle.
  • Easily accessible.

What I don't like:
  • The packaging is flimsy.
  • I wish it's in a more decent bottle packaging.
  • Always OOS. (out of stock)
  • There's a herbalish scent that my nose can't tolerate.

Will I repurchase? Yes, but not for now as I still have a back-up bottle in my stash.

Recommendations:
     I give this a 4.75/5 rating. This is easy to apply just get a cotton bud and dip inside the bottle to get the pink sediment and apply it to your pimple/s. I highly recommend this product because it really works. For small pimples, it will take overnight but for those with a moderate case, it takes two to three days in my experience before the pimple/s shrink in size and totally dry itself.

     Even though the recommended dose of application is once a day, I apply it twice especially if a pimple is big and painful. What you need to do if you're just staying at home is apply this after a bath and after washing your face at night before bedtime.
