Cetaphil Got A New Look!

 

I like looking back at my old reviews and I realized I’ve written about Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser year 2016!  That was almost 6 years ago!  

I was even invited for a “talk” in one Cetaphil Talk event at SM Aura few years back because this gentle cleanser is really one of the trusted brand especially for those with sensitive skin - ME!

According to Cetaphil (on their website)

Skin type:  For dry to normal, sensitive skin

This creamy formula is clinically proven to provide continuous hydration to protect against dryness. Formulated with Micellar Technology that gently yet effectively removes dirt, makeup and impurities.

I used to tote this around for clients whenever I do their makeup.  I would ask them to have a quick wash up before I apply makeup on them.  This is one of the safest gentle cleanser for people even with sensitive skin.  

These are just few of my Favorite Sunblock

 

Sunblock, the not-so-secret Secret to a younger-looking skin!  

I used to say “NAH” but after years of constantly using them, yes, I finally agreed!  

That’s my problem, I always wanted proofs, so I always make sure to tediously test on products to recommend them here.  I am not writing about beauty products just because I wanted to —- it’s because I really use them and I have lots to say that could help YOU out there.

Thankfully, after COPPERTONE days —- the only sunblock I know and use when I was younger, things and times have changed….sunblock comes in lighter formulation, fast absorbing properties and they smell so good ha!

I shared this on my IG Reels and I am sharing it on the blog today, my top favorite sunscreen brands!

Cetaphil Baby Products Review

I don't have a baby anymore but I still use baby products for ONE reason ---

My son may be 5 years old but his skin is still a baby!  He got my super sensitive, dry skin and using the wrong products will cause him to itch the whole day!

I have used a number of Baby Care products, I've tested a couple but one brand that was stuck in my head was Cetaphil Baby.  Why?  I'll tell you why when you scroll further down!

Kyle is a great reader, he reads ALL the product names and even product description whenever I introduce him to new bath care products.  Ever since I used Cetaphil Baby products on him, he has been requesting this brand out of all the brands available inside the bathroom for a couple of reasons --- he likes the scent and he likes how moisturizing it feels on him after every bath.

How I Manage To Look Fresh All Day!

I know every woman should be proud of their skin!  Everyone is extremely BEAUTIFUL!

But to keep that gorgeous looking skin sent from above, we need to take care of it.  And so far, I think I was a bit late in the skincare department (I was 28 years old when I started caring for my skin) and it is my personal duty, to share to everyone that you do the same (the earlier much better).

I know genes play a huge role when it comes to good skin, but based from personal experience, when I gave birth to Kyle and was breastfeeding, I stopped using skincare products altogether for almost a year!  It was a wake-up call when I finally took a good look at the mirror (with good lighting) and saw all the lines, redness and dry patches peeking through.  I was shocked on how a year can do so much difference.

Today, I'm back with vengeance, taking care of my skin more than ever is a life mission (okay, that's exaggeration but you get my point!)

Thankfully, it has been paying off, I have been getting compliments on how fresh my skin look, how my skin looks younger than my age!  

This is my daily face, concealer on the undereye area, lip balm and maybe a bit of eyeliner on non-lazy days!  But this is basically my skin - this is my second best skin to date (first would be my baby skin! lol)

It was also perfect timing I was invited by Cetaphil to do a talk during the #7DaysOfCetaphil event held last week.  My task is to share to the audience what I do to maintain good skin.

Achieving Healthy Skin With Cetaphil

Skincare is non-negotiable for me, I spend thousands of pesos testing and trying out different skincare brands just to help my dry, sensitive and sallow skin.

You've seen my journey, my beauty routine has always been an open book.  You've probably commented and DM'd me and I've told you so many times how investing and spending on good skincare products is the best investment you can give to yourself.

Does skincare products really have to be expensive for it to work on you?  Definitely NOT.

Through the years, I've tested various brands with different price range and one thing I learned is that your skin's bestfriend is not the most expensive products, instead, the skincare products that contain ingredients gentle to your skin is your best friend in helping you achieve that natural healthy and glowing skin!

I have really active lifestyle in a sense that I'm always out and about.  My daily routine consists of taking my son to and from school, go to the supermarket for groceries, go to meetings and events at various places in the Metro, do training on the side while I need to cook at home and help my son study!  You've seen that all on #AMWIGStories for sure!

In between the day, I have this habit of washing my face after coming home before bonding time with my son as he is such a sweet child who loves to hug, cuddle and kiss!  Aside from wanting my skin to be client-ready, I also make sure my skin is clean and ready for my son's hundreds hugs and kisses!

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser Review

Remember the Cetaphil Skin Commitments I recently shared?   Well, I did mentioned to you that I tried their products but after weeks of usage, I'm ready to share my thoughts.

Whenever we talk about gentle cleansers, the brand Cetaphil always comes to mind!  I remembered my dermatologist recommended this brand to me after a "pricking session" years ago so this brand was etched in my head to be one of the most safest and gentlest facial cleanser in the market.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser Says ---

Choose Simple Skin Commitments + Join the Contest!

It is a great reminder from our friends from Cetaphil Philippines when they launched a campaign to educate Filipinas how to easily achieve healthy skin called Choose Simple Skin Commitments.

The campaign is telling us women that one's skincare routine need not to be complicated.  True to that!  I may be a Beauty Blogger who have so many skincare products to try but I always choose to simplify everything!  Use products that my skin needs and always focus on 3 important steps: Cleanse, Moisturize and Protect.  And the rest we may add and follow but the major steps should always be there.

My bare skin.  Not perfect but I still love it as it is! :D

Of course, it's never to late to take care of your skin!  Note girls, lesser skin problems, lesser makeup!

First step: Cleanse
The most important step of all!  Cleansing should be done in NO hurry!  This is the step were we get rid off dirt, oil, dead skin cells and others that could damage our skin.  Your cleanser should never be drying on skin, it has to be harsh to unwanted pollutants but gentle on skin!

The Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths Is Promising But...

I got your attention with my blog title right?
Well, thanks for coming and please don't leave!  I really have something to say about the new Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths that I have been using for the past few weeks.

These are like regular cleansing cloths --- pre-moistened with a mild, soap-free cleanser that will help remove makeup and dirt!

Props to Cetaphil for the packaging, though the plastic isn't as thick as the ones from Burt's Bees, the lid seals in tightly and the sticker is amazing!  I had a hard time removing the sticker so you know the wipes are really moist on every use!

Unboxing: BDJ July 2015 Prepped and Polished Box

As some of you may go "Hohum" on the previous BDJ boxes, my heart gave a skip on this month's PREPPED and POLISHED Box!  The name says it all!  Who doesn't like to look prepared and polished wherever we go?  I know I do!  As I seem not to sport that look nowadays with all the crazy schedule!  

What I like about this month's box how diverse the brands they included here.  But all of them have the same purpose --- to make us feel good both in and out.

Let us start with the most "obvious" product/s in the box!  It just came out of the market and you've probably seen ads on all social media!  And yes, BDJ Box subscribers, you get to try them immediately!

Unboxing of: BDJ May 2015 Kiss Dry Goodbye Box

As the box goes "Kiss Dry Goodbye".  It old myself: "This is MY box!"  I am claiming it because you all know how dry my hair is, how dry my face is, how dry my skin is ---- yes, I'm a dry dude!  So as I excitedly opened BDJ's May box, I do have very high expectations!  (kayo kasi, laging super ganda ng box my expectations are getting higher by the month!)

TADAH!

My eyes gravitated towards a full pack of Nivea Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes (Hooray!)  and the Dermal Face masks!  Then my mind went blank....there are quite a number of products or brands I haven't seen or heard off!  

Aloe Derma --- Check!

Himawari --- Check!

Oh, 2 brands lang pala! :P

According to BDJ, this month's box is all about using the right hair treatment, wash your body for that silky, smooth fell.  As you step out of the shower, we are expected to show off that white pearlies!  Then, a good scrub and facial products won't hurt for a healthy, fairer skin.  And of course, they added 1 makeup product (a blush) to achieve natural flushed face!  

As much as the box goes Kiss Dry Goodbye, I want to call it --- Kiss Summer Goodbye!  Because the rainy season is here and the products in the box are there to help revive the "lost summer"! 

Christmas Gift Ideas for Colleagues

Every Christmas season, the company I work for would prepare for Exchange Gift and the fun starts even before the gift-exchanging itself! The fun starts at Creating your own screen name (from Local actors/actresses to cartoon names, etc...) to the whole guessing game of who picked who!

Now that I'm working from home, I'm missing all office gift-giving but that won't stop me from sharing my Christmas gift ideas!  And I'm picking products ranging from Php500.00-Php1,000.00.
