UFO by FOREO Review (With Before and After Photo)

Hi AMW Friends!

How are you today?  If you follow my skincare journey closely, you know that I am quite particular with the products I use (and review)!  I may have jumped from one skincare brand to another, I study eveyr single product I use by checking their ingredients and reading product information.

Last month, I shared on Instagram my FOREO First Try and shared on IG Stories several times whenever I use it at night.  I promised everyone I'll share my in-depth review after using this for a couple of weeks.

According to UFO by FOREO: (Key features lifted HERE)

• A complete mask treatment that uses Hyper-Infusion Technology combines (1) heating, (2) cooling & (3) T-Sonic pulsations.
  (1) Thermo-Therapy Mode preps skin and enhances skin’s absorption of UFO Power Activated Masks’ ingredients.  (2) Cryo-Therapy refreshes, and instantly lifts and firms skin, shrinking the appearance of pores and puffiness (3) T-Sonic Pulsations stimulate blood microcirculation and better absorption of products, facilitating skin renewal 
• This product also used LED light Therapy: 3 different LED lights - red, green, and blue - provide targeted photofacials to rejuvenate skin

Vice Cosmetics Gandoll Pink Brush Collection Review

Vice Cosmetics has been around for some times and it was a nice surprise to see them finally coming up with their own brush set, nothing screams Vice Cosmetics better than calling this set a PINK BRUSH COLLECTION!  

Well it is NOT Vice Cosmetics without me saying... this is a GANDOLL Pink Brush Collection.

I was a bit confused though if they sell them by a set as I checked on their website and saw these are sold by the piece.  But one good thing I can say about these brushes is that, they are affordable and lucky are YOU who are starting up on make up artistry as you have many choices of good quality inexpensive brushes!  

I remembered my first Smashbox brush set which I bought from the Beauty Bar costs me an arm and leg.  Yes, I went down memory lane because it has the same white bristles also synthetic hair.

Style Series: Work From Home OOTD

Who says I don't dress up?
Well, I kind of do, when I have Zoom calls or FB Live sessions.  At times, I just like to dress nicely because I want to feel good after more than a 100 days of staying at home!

Uniqlo recently launched their T-Shirt series and I am most excited about their U Crew Neck Short Sleeve Shirts!  I honestly want to own all the colors they have but I picked a shade I don't see much inside my closet!  A color that reminded me so much of CAT days but daintier!  Imagine pairing this with a Military pants?

Since I don't have a military pants, I paired this dainty yet simple top with a dainty skirt from BAYO.  This has a nice slit that make the overall look "Girl-Next-Door"-ish.  

Do you agree?

Let me know if you like this pairing.  I'll continue with more Style Series in the coming weeks!

Keep smilin'

Stay happy!

 

Causes of Hair Fall and How to Deal with It!

If you have concerns or issues on hair fall or hair loss just like Stephanie Lontoc, you may want to watch the first part of the interview HERE.

It was mentioned during our first part of the interview a product called HairReve which Stephanie used.  We all knew it is a plant-based and natural hair thickening serum that worked for Stephanie.  It may work for YOU so I also get the chance to interview Dr. Rica Mallari, Head of Hair Unit, Dermatology Center at St. Luke's Medical Center to learn more about the causes, symptoms and possible solutions to such issue.

Some of the takeaways that I learned during this educational interview?

• Stress can really cause hairloss.
• It is best to use plant-based product in helping our hair grow thicker.
• Hair loss and hair fall can start at an early age.  The youngest patient Dr. Mallari encountered is around 10-12 years old.
• Both male and females suffer from hairloss.
• Shedding of hair happens more on women due to pregnancy / hormonal changes.
