Something New: Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus and UV Damage Corrector

Image
here's the product that got me so excited the first time I've learned about it: Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus and UV Damage Corrector A potent serum that gives every skin a second chance against lines, wrinkles and sun damage. In 4 weeks, see obvious reduction in lines, improved texture. At 12 weeks, the visible wrinkle-reducing power is remarkably close to a dermatological laser procedure. 63% to be exact. Different commitment, different results. And yet impressive results guaranteed. After reading its product info, I was immediately sold! I've used Clinique some time ago, their 3-step skincare for Oily skin, and it worked for me. So it didn't take a lot of thinking before I decided to get this. I know I have so many skincare products already but who would say NO to a promise of giving you good skin? NOT ME. I'll be incorporating this product on my daily regimen and of course, will update you about my progress. I've been using this for 2...

Product Review: Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat

Image
I'm not really into nail polishes because I can't grow my nails long. I always end up with cracked nails, so yeah...I am stuck with very short nails, like those you see from kids. sniff. But if ever I use nail polish, a fast-drying top coat IS A MUST! I've already tried a lot of brands, and have liked a few. But just like with makeup, to find more choices is always good. Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat Sets in 60 seconds to a hard lustrous finish. Plasticizers and an acrylic polymer help safeguard polish from nicks and chips, while promoting flexibility. UV filter helps maintain color fidelity DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde - free i first heard of this from my Mom who has been a user for a long time. She loves this (I'm just not sure after I gave her a small bottle of Seche Vite) and even promised to give me a bottle before. But this is always sold out at Revlon counters, it took me months before finally getting one. my thoughts: Quick Dry? Not really. My Po...

Product Review: Bonacure Hair Therapy for Hair Growth + all praises for Creations by Lourd Ramos Salon

Image
7 years ago, I decided to cut my hair real short. I remember sporting a boy's cut for years, then I decided to grow my hair long again. I think it's been more than 2 years already that I've only been getting trims whenever I visit a salon. One problem I would have whenever I would try to grow my hair longer is falling hair. Geesh, I would see my hair everywhere....in the bathroom, on my pillows and on the floor. Sometimes I would just tie my hair on a ponytail just so I could keep myself from combing my hair. I already talk to a derma and she said that it's just normal to lose 50 to 80 strands a day. But still, I don't want to go bald anytime soon! So I again decided to cut my hair short again. Good thing I was able to visit Lourd Ramos' salon at the 3rd floor of Glorietta 5 last month. I got a very nice haircut from one of his talented hairstylists named Ronald and they recommended this shampoo suited for those with problems with hair fall: ...

more shopping at Forever21...

Image
Forever21 had a huge sale in Makati last weekend. I was too lazy to go so I decided to check out the items that they have in the mall near me. Yeah, I said "check out" for I didn't plan on getting anything. I was there just a couple of days ago and I didn't think they have something new to offer anyways....oh boy, I was SO WRONG! Seriously, I think they always have new stuff...as in EVERYDAY! It's not bad actually, for it's always a good thing to come up with new stuff...but not too good to us people who can get so addicted! I feel like my head's spinning from seeing a lot of good finds in their store. I was trying to keep myself from pulling stuff here and there...but of course, I didn't miss my usual trip in their accessories area: two more earrings...i'm seriously getting scared that I would wake up one day with an extra pair of ears (or more), so I could just be able to wear all of them! so cute...makes me feel sweet, and so gir...

Product Review: Pure Beauty Perfect Cleansing Oil...

Image
As promised, here's another review of one of Pure Beauty's Perfect Cleansing makeup removers. I am using their removers a lot more often than those from MAC and Shu Uemura, and with their friendly price tag, I am not in any way feeling guilty for using them everyday. Pure Beauty Perfect Cleansing Oil Moisturizing, enriched with soybean oil, olive oil and specially selected natural seeds oil to help gently remove makeup impurities or excess oils effectively and thoroughly. The special formula helps soften skin and prevent dryness after use. manufacturing date at the bottom of the plastic container priced at Php289 for a 190ml plastic bottle my face with waterproof eye liner and mascara and a bit of foundation left all you need is 2 to 3 pumps to end up with squeaky-clean, oil-free but not drying skin like this: I must say that I love this cleansing oil variant than their cleansing water. Though it feels like oil, as in OIL, it does its jo...

Something New: Celeteque Dermoscience+

Image
It was on the August issue of Cosmo where I've first seen their newest line, Dermoscience+ and I really got so curious, intrigued and excited. So imagine how glad I was (I even shrieked!) when I finally saw that they are finally available at Watsons: Celeteque Dermoscience+ Like a child surrounded with new toys, I was all giddy to check out the new stuff. I was a bit disappointed when I didn't see the items I've been wanting to get the first time I laid my eyes on them on the magazine. Dermoscience+ have several lines that will cater to different skin needs. They have brightening, acne control and a lot more. And of course, I got new babies to "play" with: Celeteque Dermoscience+ Hydration Facial Wash I love their original facial wash which is my alternative to Obagi Nuderm Gel cleanser. It's a simple facial wash that works, gives you a squeky-clean feel without drying. I've been using their Hydration facial wash for a week now and ...
