Something New: Belo Baby Hand Sanitizers



When Belo launched Belo Baby, I knew moms like me are more than willing to give "baby products" a test because we do everything for our "babies".

So when I saw Belo Baby came up with their own line of Hand Sanitizer, I'm so happy Sampleroom has stocks for their members to try by using their points!  I have to give these a test (on myself) before letting my active toddler use it!

Available in 3 scents: Peach, Green Apple and Blueberry
Full size 50ml Php49.75

According to Belo Baby ---
"Belo Baby hand sanitizer kills 99.9% of germs and bacteria. Aside from being hypoallergenic and dermatologist-tested, it is carefully formulated without harmful ingredients such as parabens, triclosan, chlorine, formaldehyde, and other common allergens. It is 100% safe and gentle! Moreover, it has glycerin that moisturizes skin, and an ultra-mild fragrance that leaves skin fresh."

Céleteque DermoCosmetics 2-in-1 Eyebag Miracle Kit Review





Eye bags, I used to say, I don't have it!  But since turning into a mom and taking up so much responsibilities, I knew my "bags" are crying for help!  Excess na excess na siya guys!  So one makeup product I'm really consistently finishing up...CONCEALERS! 

I have tried, used and reviewed so many concealers, from the most inexpensive to the most expensive ones!  I don't discriminate, if they work, I don't care if they are only a couple of hundreds as opposed to thousands of pesos!  

Recently, All-NEW Céleteque DermoCosmetics, came up with their own makeup line!  I have tried their concealers back then but this one is unique!  It is called the 2-in-1 Eye Bag Miracle Kit and I tested it out almost immediately.  Fast-forward to 2 months after, I'm ready to share my experience.

Céleteque DermoCosmetics 2-in-1 Eyebag Miracle Kit 
(Php745.00)
"Is a two-component solution to the dark circles under your eyes that may be caused by poor sleep, allergies, hormone levels, or even the food you eat or the genes you’re born with. The kit contains an Eye Balm to reduce puffiness under the eye and an Eye Foundation in light, natural, and beige shades to cover and lighten your eyebags. Ingredients include the trademarked Cytobiol Lumin-eye to reduce puffiness and under-eye bags; Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) to nourish, hydrate, and firm up the skin, minimizing lines under the eyes; and antioxidants like Ubiquinone, Squalane, and Ginkgo Biloba leaf extract, all of which help prevent further skin damage."

In every makeup training/workshop that I do, I highly recommend everyone to use an eye cream prior to using a concealer especially since the area tends to be the most drying part of our face!  That area does not produce oil like other parts of our face so I'm glad Céleteque DermoCosmetics took some action and created a nifty pot that comes with an eye balm.

Pro Studio Beauty Exclusives: Miracle Edge Sponge Can Make You A PRO!





So Beauty Blenders are EVERYWHERE!  Original and "inspired versions".  I own 2 originals and a whole lot of "inspired ones".  So I guess I have a bit of the "right" to say, I know if it's as good as the original or even close to the original.  #BraggingRights

I recently got one as a gift that doesn't look like your regular Beauty Blender Sponge, it comes with an "Edge" that's why it's called a Miracle Edge Sponge!  It is also in hot pink and there are other colors like Light Pink and Purple which I find extremely adorable and I want to get them all!


Miracle Edge Sponge
Php490.00 but priced Php285.00 at BeautyMNL

And it also gets BIG when wet!  See how huge it is against the palm of my hand?

Maybelline Dream Velvet Soft Matte Hydrating Foundation Review





Would you believe me when I say, I can actually pick a drugstore foundation even when I go on camera?
Remember my 2 guesting at Unang Hirit last December?  Well, I actually picked a drugstore foundation called Maybelline Dream Velvet Soft Matte Hydrating Foundation as my base!  So far, it works fine!

Why did I pick this foundation?  Well, aside from the fact that it gives a matte finish, it is hydrating enough to use even on dry areas around my skin.  

This product, according to Maybelline, is the first-ever hydrating matte foundation for 100% velvet-smooth perfected skin all day.  I tested this so many times and I have to say, this is my favorite Maybelline foundation to date --- just because it is perfect for my skin type.

Cathy Doll's 5th Year Anniversary Celebration in Bangkok, Thailand




So today is my birthday!  Yes, I am a year older and this post came right on time!  For me, getting older means getting extremely grateful for a year's worth of "life" and "experiences", a year older means conquering your fear too!  

I look like a very strong woman, but I do have my own fears!  Okay, this may sound too "OA" (Overacting) but I fear of separation with my toddler, you guys who follow my travel "logs" would probably realize how I haven't traveled for the past 3 years (last one was in the US with Kyle and Mr. AMW).  

A couple of weeks ago, I received an email to attend Cathy Doll's 5th Year Anniversary in Bangkok and I told myself it is TIME for me to go and conquer my fear of Separation Anxiety #Sepanx at the same time, appreciate the opportunities that was offered to me!  I finally said YES, and it was one of the BEST YES I did before I turn a year older.

Juggling multiple tasks and jobs on hand, I guess I don't have enough time to expand my learnings, so I guess at this stage, the best learning is through life's lesson and this short trip is an eye-opener for me!  There really isn't any "division" when it comes to the world of Beauty...people really flock together, giving each other's smiles (even with the lack of language skills) just because we all understand our similar passion.

That's me, sick and all but happy in Bangkok 
I realized Cathy Doll is indeed super Big in Thailand, they have ads almost EVERYWHERE! 


With just a full day in Bangkok and the rest of the days for travel, I am so glad to get to squeeze in a quick visit in one of their Karmart Store located at Siam.

Karmart is where you will find Cathy Doll products in Thailand same in modern trade channels such as 7-Eleven, Watsons, etc.. 



I got in to check out Cathy Doll Products and actually see which products we don't have here locally.
