Cleansing Water or Cleansing Water Oil In?




I had a funny IG DM conversation with good friend/Shobe Marj about the best feeling in the world at the end of the day ---

  • Removing Contacts
  • Removing Bra
  • Removing Lashes
It was 3 checks for both of us but now, I'm adding up REMOVING MAKE UP as the 4th best-feeling in the world for a woman before calling it a night!  Well...that's just me!  Kindly let me know on comment box what other "best felling" you can add!

I use ALL Types of makeup removers ever since I started wearing makeup!  Because I believe to keep your skin in good and healthy condition is to always remove makeup completely before you go to sleep no matter how tired you are!  

Thankfully, brands are coming up with easier-to-use makeup removers and you actually have a choice for removing hardcore makeup or just remove simple makeup!

Kracie came up with Kreer Cleansing Waters to help cut short daily makeup cleansing regime with just one step.  This is called 4-in-1 because it works as makeup remover, facial cleanser, exfoliator and toner in one.

Creer Cleansing Water is a no rinsing required regimen but of course, I still highly recommend to add up a cleansing step if you have time!

Goodal Green Tangerine Skincare Initial Thoughts



After trying out Korean Face Masks, I actually went into the Korean skincare craze and was actively trying out Korean brands.  Not the 7 steps, 12 steps or 20 steps but just the simplest K-Beauty Skincare routine. 

I recently tried Goodal Green Tangerine line (not all of them) but 3 of them --- Green Tangerine Moisturizing Foam, Moist Fresh Toner and Moist Serum.  Not complete, but good enough to jumpstart with this brand and see if these works.

Let's start with the Goodal Green Tangerine Moist Cleansing Foam (Php420.00).  This product got me at "moist" cleansing because it is very difficult for me to look for a gentle cleanser that won't strip off the remaining moisture from my face!

Flormar Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer Review




So I've tried a couple of Flormar products and when I saw the Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer, because, concealer really is a basic necessity of mine when it comes to base makeup!  

When you visit the Flormar counter, you'll see a LOT of makeup products but what made me pick this particular one up for review is because of the simple concealer packaging that I like.  A lipgloss-type of plastic tube packaging (transparent friends!) and....

A doe-foot applicator, which in my humble opinion, the BEST concealer applicator for liquid concealers!

Flormar Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer Says ---
A creamy yet thin concealer that is easy to apply, provides a smooth, natural look and helps to temporarily reduce the appearance of dark circles or blemishes. This concealer also helps prevent premature signs of aging, while the covers and feels light on the skin.
Size: 5 ml

How Easy Can A Daily Look Be?



It's very easy as long as you know the right colors to choose and the choice of makeup you need.  This is my ultimate everyday look and as much as I change the brand every now and then for review purpose, the look remains the same!  And things became easier when I got the Sleek Makeup I-Divine Mineral Based Eyeshadow Palette in All Night Long because I wore it ALL DAY LONG! :P

Let me clarify that this handy dandy palette is limited to press when I attended one of their events but fret not, you may get the same palette in bigger size.

This sample size is quite small, around size of a business card (just a bit bigger).

Dengue Awareness for YOU and Your Family






When Kyle started his new school at Early Achievers this year, parents like me received a communication folder with requirements from school. 
  • Water Bottle
  • Snacks
  • Extra T-Shirt and Pants
  • Towels
  • Insect Repellent
I took serious notes on everything ESPECIALLY insect repellent, because I understand the Philippines (a tropical country) is no stranger to Dengue outbreaks.  I watch them on news and read them on social media posts every single day and I know my son (and children in general) are more liable to get it because they are the ones who are more exposed than any of us in the Family.
