Review: L de L Retinol Anti-Wrinkle Facial
I just celebrated my 33rd birthday last March 3 and the number three is a very important number to me. Apart from planning my birthday loot (will blog soon!), I decided to take my skin care regimen a notch higher to combat the early signs of aging. I read the amazing rejuvenating benefits of retinol so… Continue reading

Review: Belo Kojic Acid + Tranexamic Acid Intensive Whitening Soap
When it comes to whitening products, PH is spoiled rotten with options.Whitening products in PH come in various formulations so choosing just one can be quite overwhelming. I was searching for a whitening product not to lighten my skin (I’m pretty fair at NC25-30) but to banish pesky acne marks. I think I harped on… Continue reading

Hello and happy 2016, folks! For our first review of the year, it’s the Origins Make a Difference Overnight Hydrating Repair Cream (whew!). Watta mouthful, right?

Review: Juice Beauty Anti-Blemish Serum
One of the reasons why I haven’t been posting a lot of reviews lately is that I’ve been suffering from severe breakouts. This bout of bad skin has been going on for months.

Oh hai! I’m back with another review for you dear readers! I picked up Olay’s Aquaction long-lasting Hydration gel two weeks ago. I was meaning to get the Neutrogena Hydroboost Gel because that’s an awesome moisturizer, but I got this because I wanted to see how it compares with my fave gel moisturizer. The Aquaction long-lasting Hydration gel… Continue reading

Review: Biore Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF 50
One of the things I cannot live without is a sunblock. I make it a point to slather sunscreen every day and more frequently when I’m on the beach. Using sunscreen religiously months after my last trip to the beach, I’m so fair that my concealers no longer match my current skin color! I’m very… Continue reading

Bath and Body Works' On SALE! What Did You Get?
Bath and Body Works is one of those amazing companies that I wish would cater to the PH market. Unfortunately, we don’t have B&BW here in the tropics. And I think that’s unfair because if anything, we’re the ones who need the products the most. Let’s face it, we have crazy humid weather all day,… Continue reading

Review: Tony Moly Pure Eco Snail Moisture Gel
I’m back with yet another review, this time a find from Tony Moly. Tony Moly is a Korean beauty brand that specializes in skincare. However, they do have an extensive makeup line too.

When Well-Loved Beauty Products Get Re-Formulated
Do you hate it when a well-loved, familiar beauty product of any kind gets re-formulated? I don’t have much experience with this to be honest. But I recently repurchased two bottles of Snoe’s It’s Oat-K, It’s Alright foaming cleansing oil and noticed that the normally cloudy-looking liquid is now clear. I thought nothing of it… Continue reading
