When I Let Belo Touched my Armpit: The Belo Beauty Deo Review

Hello Lovelies! Being born a sweaty-pig, I struggled during my puberty days, it is either I end up stinky and soaking wet or having a overwhelming smell of deo and yellow stains on my uniforms--because I just don't know where or who to ask or open up for it is a pretty personal and embarrassing stuff. So moving forward, I end up ruining my armpit, it has chicken skin and uneven skin tone. For years I've been using all-natural alum deo, be it powdered or the solid one, just to save my shirts & blouses from stains but the downside is that it doesn't have any antiperspirant property--which is kinda embarrassing, not just for girls but for everyone! Dyahe bes! Hindi nakakaganda. Then one time, my Mom made me use her Avon's Quelch Deo--and it quite good. I didn't sweat and there's no stain--but then again it just my first time of using it--so I wasn't convince yet, I told myself that I need to try it for a longer period. However, the thing is I don...

Note to Self: How to deal with Irritation (Irita Bes!)

Hello Lovelies! Don't you have those  "Irita" moments? Wherein, someone or something is challenging your patience and peace? And your just there, concealing it like Queen Elsa, waiting to explode and have that "Let it go" moment. Irritation is normal ,  but what's bad about it is how we release it or the actions it can produce. Sometimes, when we get so carried away by irritation, we tend to do two things:  hurt others or hurt ourselves . Tons of foolish things and problems are sometimes rooted from irritation. So being a fellow human specie I'm going to share to you how I deal with it. But first of all, let me tell you where I am rooted: what I'm gonna share to you is from a Christian Girl's perspective, rooted from the Bible. But of course I'm not saying that this is post is just for Christians only---everyone's welcome. I just want make that clear, to avoid conflicts and confusions. Hopefully it can help you like it helped me...

{UPDATED} My Breakout Survival Kit

Hello Lovelies!   So here it goes!!! A post close to my heart---my breakout survival kit! First of all this is not a sponsored post--all products included are proven effective on my skin. However, as much as I want to help you with overcoming your breakouts, the effectiveness of all the products indicated on this post varies, therefore if these products are so amazing on me, it doesn't mean that their magic can work on you too--but I do pray that they do, so that we can be both joyful. (▰˘◡˘▰) Just a background, before, during the midst of my breakout, I'm not into using facial cleansers--soap is enough for me, since I don't wear make-up (I'll talk about that on another post). But since the reason behind my breakout then was the current soap I was using (for review sake)--I felt lost on what I should do, so after a day of confusion and drama--I did what every girl on this planet with internet connection would do, search Google and YouTube for breakout solution. Th...

For the Love of Hair: Puritan's Pride Hair Nails Skin Review

Hello Lovelies! First of all, I would like to give you a background why I took this supplement: waaay baaack  my college days I was a rebel, to the point that I dyed my hair different colors (pink, red, orange & blonde)--to the point of breaking my hair *sorry hair!ಥ.ಥ*. So moving forward, it's 2017 and I still haven't recovered from the hair thinning it gave me. I know, t'was my fault and I'm paying the price now, LITERALLY. That's why now, I'm avoiding dyes and I also start taking care of my hair, by that I mean: getting my hair trimmed every month, using conditioners and treatment. Moreover, nowadays I'm eyeing on organic products and supplements, just to make the process holistic --which led me to finding this product, the Puritan's Pride: Hair, Skin & Nails Formula with Type I and III Collagen . What?  Puritan's Pride Hair, Skin & Nails Formula How Much?  419 Php (Sale + 100 Php Shipping Fee) Where?   Puritan's Pri...

The Wax Battle: Drugstore Hot Wax "Glam Works Hot Wax" vs. "Epilin Hot Wax"

Hello Lovelies!! Raw Image from: http://www.mycupoftea.rs/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/waxedit-970x610.jpg Been weeks since I last updated my blog. Lot of things happened both sad and happy. Just lost a cousin a day before my birthday (so bitter-sweet ಥ /\ ಥ" ) but at least he's with our Lord now ♥.  Anyway, moving forward, being a constant supporter of Watsons & of Mercury Drugs, I tend to get all my essentials there, except for my moisturizers and oils (will talk about that soon *wink*), and that being said--even my DIY Hot Wax Kit . Since I gave up my trip to my favorite waxing salon, due to financial thriftiness and lack of time (long waiting hours lovelies just for a session), I begun my journey to the DIY World, I started with cold waxes--didn't work for me, sorry--then with hesitation I bought two hot wax brands: Epilin & Glam Works , and here are my reviews: Disclaimer : Images provided below are not mine (except my signature). Kindly see...

Product Review: Skin White Whitening Soap

Hello Lovelies!! As my journey to finding the best soap for my face and my body continues, it led me to this product: Skin White Whitening Soap . Moreover, the reason why I grabbed this soap immediately is because it has Niacinamide , a must for me since my skin hasn't recovered yet from the recent breakouts caused by Silka Herbal Soap . So here it goes: What?  SkinWhite Whitening Soap w/ Kojic Acid How Much?  46 Php / 0.9 $ Where?  Leading supermarkets & drugstores Pros: It has Niacinamide!!! <3 Smells good VERY-VERY MILD FOR A KOJIC SOAP Doesn't sting Easy to find Lasted for a week Cons: Not that effective in terms of whitening (perhaps whitening will be visible after months of use) Didn't help with my breakouts All in all, if you're not into instant whitening and don't like the sting of the usual Kojic Soap--this soap is for you. Will I buy again?  Nope. Recommend?  Yes, for Kojic Soap Newbies. :)...

My Cheap but EFFECTIVE Pimple Drying Cream: Katialis Review

Hello Lovelies!! This review is like an updated review version of my previous post on my  IG account .  Being thrifty, I tend to search for DIY's when it comes to that time of the month wherein my "visitor" a.k.a menstruation visits me with a friend named pimple or sometimes zit.
