REVIEW: Garnier Brightening Eye Roll-on

Way back in college I've been very busy with my school affairs, shooting, requirements, reviewing notes, stress and lack of sleep equals to EYEBAG! sometimes my classmates even open a contest who has the biggest eyebag and should be rewarded as the most productive! sometimes they call you eyebags EYELUGGAGE if you really have big eyebags ^^ (got the logic?). So when my family went to The Landmark to buy groceries, I saw this Garnier Eye Brightening Roll-on for Php199!

has a metal ball that is great for conducting temperature

what the product looks like. has gelatin-like consistency

REVIEW:
I don't use it anymore because I'm always lack of sleep and I don't think that its effective but I like to refrigerate it and put this on my eyebags. makes me feel relaxed

OVERALL RATING:
Pros:
*relaxes me when I put this under my eyes
*makes me feel sleepy

Cons:
*a little expensive to something that is not really effective

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED IT? TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK :)

REVIEW: Celeteque Acne Spot Gel

Everybody knows that I have acne prone skin especially when I turned 21. So I was at SM Bicutan to seek for a acne gel and the saleslady suggested that this one is her best seller among those acne gel and I was intrigued and kinda fooled by her sales talk that's why I go away when Sales Clerks checks me  :)

what the product looks like

It stings when I put this on my pimples but it subsides real quick like 5 seconds its gone. I like its smell

OVERALL REVIEW:
Pros:
*helps to prevent bumps from breaking out
* has a really nice smell that I can't explain

Con:
* a little pricey Php168 for 5ml
*not that effective

REVIEW: Garnier Light Complete Cream

Want to remove those ugly pimple scar in an effective way? Here's a product that might help you to achieve that! Garnier LightComplete claims to be a multi-action cream that fights dullness, dark spots and and pimple scars cream that has UVA and UVB filters and gives you a 8hour shine free look! Sounds promising right?

what the product looks like

creamy consistency

REVIEW:

I love the smell of this! mild lemon lotion scent. I use this as a spot treatment so everytime people(sometimes my mom's friends pay her a visit) see me asks if what is that white thingy on my face I just simply answer that its an pimple scar remover.But don't ever put this to a pimple because it clogs it again therefore it helps the pimple to relive! I hate it when that happens

OVERALL RATING:

Pros:

*effective pimple scar remover in 3 weeks time your scar will totally unseen!

*Cheap! Php20 per 5ml sachet mines on a 20mL tube for Php 78 if I remember it right

*smells like lemon lotion

Cons:

*it oils up my face

* cause breakouts because it sits on the pores and blocks the oil 

* no specific SPF

REVIEW: Celeteque Moisturizer

I always tend to moisturize my face after putting toner because it makes my face a little dry and dryness or lack of moisture or even bad moisturizers (ones that has oil, alcohol and other nasty stuffs) are few of the reasons why people get pimples. Today, I'm goin' to show you guys what do I use to keep my face moisturized without getting pimples ^^

 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
claims to be non-comedogenic and oil-free

I was too lazy to type it down hehe!

what the product looks like

very watery consistency

what it looks like on the skin

after 10 seconds it was completely absorbed by my skin 

REVIEW:

What I love about this product is that it is quickly absorbed by the skin and has very smooth and watery consistency this is my third bottle and its already half empty! But when I got the prescribed products from my dermatologist I rarely use this because it might affect the effect of the other products.

OVERALL RATING:

Pros:

*watery consistency 

*makes my skin supple

*doesn't oil up my face

* feels very light when applied on the face

* no smell

Cons:

* can't think of any! 

REVIEW: Etude House Happy Tea Time Green tea Cleanser

Im bloggin' another review about Face Care, the Etude House's Happy Tea time Cleanser in Green Tea. I bought this last year for Php148 at Etude House SM Bicutan branch after their sale because I didn't make it I was too late but its still a steal because is very affordable :)

 Product Description:

soft green color

has really thick consistency

Review:
I use this product for removing my make up because it does the job makes my face squeaky clean and make up free. It also helps clear my blemishes and helps remove oil for hours! I just love2 this product.Even my big bro uses this to clean his face :)

OVERALL RATING:
Pros:
* removes makeup,even gel liners and mascara well
*helps reduce sebum secretion
*makes my face squeaky clean
* a pea size is enough to wash my whole face with make up
* has really nice green tea smell

Cons:
None so far!

REVIEW: St. Ives Apricot Scrub

Here's another Face care product review for you guys! I have been using this scrub for almost three months, I even bought another bottle because I already finished the other bottle which has a pump that really love and adore

what the product looks like

has a creamy consistency unlike the one with the pump which is liquid-y

REVIEW: 

I use this every time I want to exfoliate but exfoliating daily is bad for your skin. You should exfoliate once a week and twice a week is the most! you don't want that pesky millia to grow (millia is like a whitehead but it is covered with dead skin cells thats why its very hard to get out). Its beads really helps to exfoliate my skin and it lessen my whiteheads and lightens my acne scars. I love its mild candy-ish scent but the one that comes in the pump is more effective than this one because I think it that was reformulated.

OVERALL RATING:

Pros:

*love its smell

*effective on clearing the pores

*paraben free, phthalates free(meaning it has no preservatives that is very harmful to the skin)

* not soapy 

* makes me feel that I have supple skin

*helps my acne

Cons:

Can't think of any

REVIEW: Garnier Pure Active Multi-action Scrub

Today I will be reviewing a face care product! the Garnier Pure Active Mulit-action Scrub

Before I underwent to Acnesurgery and seek for a dermatlogogist help this was the product I have been using alternately with St. Ives Apricot Scrub. Here's a quick review about this scrub:

     

Product Description:

*visibly fghtd 6 signs of Acne, has Purifying Salicylic Acid+ herbarepair

*Dermatologically tested on Asian Acne-prone skin

* anti imperfection relapse efficacy on whiteheads for 1 week and pimples(clinical test 50 subjects-5 weeks)

*Anti-imperfection action: Concentrated in Purifying Salicylic acid, its fresh non greasy formula quickly dries  out imperfections instantly.

*Anti-marks fading action: Enriched with HerbaRepair, known for its regenerating and repairing properties, it helps to improve skin, minimise redness and fades marks.

what the product looks like

has slight sheen on it

thick and sticky texture

has blue beads to it

REVIEW:

Bought this at The Landmark for Php 85 it has a mild bubble gummy smell to it. I love how the microbeads feels against my face but sadly it din't work for my acne-prone skin. I know that Salicylic Acid helps fight bacteria that is present on my acne but it doesn't make it any better, I have used this product for almost a month but it didn't give me results because as I was using this product new bumps still appears on my face thus it doesn't help to prevent breakouts, it didn't removed my whiteheads but it somehow removed my oil a little because it resumes to oil up even more after 3 hours. It is affordable but it didn't help my acne get better. I was really disappointed because I held to its promising claims which seriously didn't improve my condition.

OVERALL RATING:

2/5

Pros:

*has mild bubble-gummy scent which I love

*after using, makes me feel that I have squeaky clean face

* thick consistency= doesn't need a lot of product to clean my whole face

*relatively cheap

*helps remove oil 

Cons:

*didn't achieve clearer face

*didn't do any good to my face

I know that no person has the same skin condition and how it will react to a product, meaning if it didn't work for my face MAYBE it will work for you but I am not assuring you that it might. Have you tried the Pure Active Multi-action scrub? How was it?

REVIEW: Beauty Friends Essence Mask and Saizen's Nose Pack

Hello Guys!!  So this is a quick review of Beauty Friends Essence Mask and the Saizen's Nose Pack

I saw alot of Beauty Friends Essence Pack sold by many Online Shops that caters Korean Cosmetics and skin care and it has so many variants to choose from :) 12 all in all I guess, Cereal, Pomegrante, Cucumber, Marine Algae, Q10 Essence, Herbs, Lemon, Collagen, Red Ginseng, Pearl, Raspberry and Kiwi. Gladly I have a friend that retails this for only Php 50!! What a Steal! 

Looks like This ^^

has English translations which is definitely a PLUS

Herb is like super cool on the face and you can feel  some sting but its for my problematic areas like  under the lips, beside the nose where my whitehead lives

BENEFITS: 

Every variant of this mask has different uses like the Pomegranate that tightens pores, Royal Jelly for skin elasticity, and so on which is very helpful because not all the time you need to make your face elastic or tighten your pores. Of course it depends on what your skin's need on that particular time, right but at the same time it helps your skin to moisturize and as we all know that moisturizing your skin helps prevent wrinkles and helps your skin to remove dirt because the mask gives some good stuff so your skin rejects the dirt,oil that causes whiteheads,blackheads,pimples


THOUGHTS:

For some reason, I'm kinda addicted to the stingy feel of the mask that I  just cannot get enough of! It is a nice product because it makes your face to exfoliate especially when I have pimples, it helps it to heal well and faster. Also, I noticed that the pimples will not scar because of the exfoliation and moisturization (if that's a word, but I hope you got what I mean) going around mah face. plus its really,really CHEAP ^^ compare to those whose at Watsons that does not work for me.

So after I put some mask, I always put on some of Saizen's Nose Pack since I got it because for me it is the best time to put some nose pack cos it helps your pores to remove those gross stuff easier because your pores are widely open ^^

You see those little beasts! I hate them alot RIP

THOUGHTS: 

The Saizen's Nose Pack helps remove my whiteheads only AFTER I put on me mask but if your gonna use it alone it doesn't work. One time I unintentionally overtimed it to dry but I still don't care,  it peeled my skin it really hurts! I thought that was the whiteheads! So I said to myself, "No Pain, No Gain, but when I saw my nose MAN! its BLEEDING!!!  so I'm gonna give it a..

4/10

because doesn't work  independently and doesn't get the job well done because after I peeled it then I try to check my pores if the whiteheads are gone they are still there! I mean yeah the nosepack helped but it only got let say  25/50 of them maybe I was expecting too much knowing the fact that It was made for men's skin conditions= bigger pores to clean= bigger and nastier whiteheads!
