Mustela Vitamin Barrier Cream : Makes a Happy Baby!

Hello, pretties!

Today, I will be featuring and reviewing one of my baby boy's best friend and my own angel in preventing baby's diaper rash.  I believe that nothing is more important than having a comfortable and happy baby.  And when I say comfortable and happy, it means no diaper rash.   Thanks to Mustela for their Mustela Vitamin Barrier Cream, I am one pleased and delighted mom with their products.

Sorry, wasn't able to get a clearer photo because of the lights inside the room.

I purchased this barrier cream together with other Mustela products featured on my August Haul (click the link).  Mustela has always been a trusted brand for babies and since our baby boy has been on/off with his bungang araw, I can't let go of this brand even though it's a way more expensive than the other brands.  (Unless I meet a tried and tested brand which is more affordable than Mustela but delivers the same results with this one.)  If you read my blog post about Mustela STELATOPIA Milky Bath Oil and its battle with my son's rashes, then you'll understand why I love this brand.

Olay Skin Whitening Bar Rose & Milk : The #OneWashWonder

Hello again, pretties!

I have been wondering why skin whitening always come with sacrifice (or pains).   I have tried several whitening soaps, like papaya soaps (Check my review on PSALMSTRE PLACENTA PAPAYA SOAP), calamansi soaps and now, the kojic acid soap that's gaining popularity in terms of effective whitening.   But the price I have to pay for the sake of skin whitening is to have a dry (super) and itchy skin in return.   

I am currently using moisturizing body wash but bar soaps has always been a staple in my bathroom.  Being a fan of Olay products, I was glad to know that Sample Room has various Olay soaps that I can try first before deciding which soap suits better for me.   Sample agad!   I got samples of 2 Olay Skin Whitening Bar Soaps of different variants (Which I will also took time to post my review on the other Olay Bar soap - NEXT.) and Finesse Moisturizing Shampoo + Conditioner (Click on the link to read my review on this hair care duo.)

NO FRIZZ, NO FUZZ. JUST FINESSE : Finesse Moisturizing Shampoo + Conditioner

Hello again, pretties!

I noticed that Sample Room's been up with hair care products lately.  Just when our sampled Palmolive Naturals Intensive Moisture Shampoo + Cream Conditioner (check my reviews on this duo!) nearing empty, SR has another set of hair care that claims to be good in giving moisture and nourishment to the hair.  

And since my hair had recently undergone rebonding, I had to be extra careful in using products that would gently care for my hair to make it stronger and well-nourished.  And as you know, rebonded hair would always look dull flat and super bagsak.  So, I decided to try this pair and see if this would help in adding volume (or life) to my hair. (fingers crossed)

At Finesse, we care about your hair, and we want to always help you look and feel your best especially when it comes to making a good hair day even better!  That is why we've created a unique formula with active silk and soy proteins that penetrate deep into the hair shaft to help restore and strengthen hair that's damaged, dry or just straight up stubborn.  With these ingredients, hair is replenished with natural moisture leaving hair healthier, stronger and more alive.
No Frizz. No Fuzz. Just FINESSE.

The 5-day Challenge : Face Sheet Mask

Hello, pretties!

When stress hits me, especially when work demands for so many deadlines, the only thing that could relieve me from it is BEAUTY PAMPERING.   Just lately, I indulge myself and enjoyed the luxury of time through FACE SHEET MASK.   They are one of my favorite skin care products because once I had it on my face, I felt relaxed, rejuvenated, pampered and I had a mental feeling that I am in a spa from the comfort of my own home.

Do you really need a FACE SHEET MASK?

Of course!  Just a little musing, to de-stress myself, I stopped by Watsons and hoard a few face sheet masks and decide to do a 5-day challenge with these masks.  (Actually I bought 8 of it.  Sorry, when stress hits me, I don't do the math. Lol!  And when you're faced with numerous masks in the store, you could not decide what to pick.)   I have previously tried using face sheet masks but not on a daily basis since it is also expensive.

Gluta-C with Kojic Plus+ Whitening System (Face & Body Powder + Body Lotion)

Hello again, pretties!

Have you heard of kojic acid?  Which brand of beauty products having Kojic acid is more effective in skin whitening for you?  

Kojic acid is a by-product in the fermentation process of malting rice. for use in the manufacturing of Sake or the Japanese rice wine.  It is a mild inhibitor of the formation of pigment in plant and animal tissues, and is used in food and cosmetics to preserve or change colors of substances.  (source : Wikipedia)

Kojic acid has becoming popular nowadays known to have faster lightening effect on the skin and it is mostly incorporated as one of the active ingredients in most beauty products like lotions, serums, creams and soaps.

Sample Room has another up for grabs kojic-based beauty products for its members and I, fancied with the lightening effects brought by kojic acid, sampled a set of face & body powder + body lotion from Gluta-C. (I did not include the soap in the sampled products, although it is also available, because Kojic soaps always made my skin super dry and itchy.)
