Review: Skinfood Salmon Dark Circle Concealer Cream

Few days ago, I asked some of you on my Facebook page if you think I should start reviewing products, may it be skincare or makeup, that didn't really work for me - not to badmouth the brand of anything but to give an honest to goodness review. Most of you said yes, so let's start with this Skinfood Salmon Dark Circle Concealer Cream in 02. I've been using this for months but I never posted the review; now you know why.

Skinfood is a Korean brand that is well-known for their food themed skincare products and makeup. This specific line, Salmon Dark Circle, contains a concentrated formula rich in omega 3 fatty acid and vitamins that are known to improve blood circulation and lighten skin discoloration particularly the under eye area. If I'm not mistaken, this line also includes eye creams and setting powders especially made to address the problem with dark circles.

May BDJ Box: Fun, Fresh and Fierce!

Last week, I was extremely envious (to say the least) as I browse through May BDJ Box unboxing posts and videos online. Please don't judge me! :P I badly wanted to subscribe; obviously because I really enjoyed my first ever BDJ Box experience last month. But since BDJ Box is apparently a big hit, their pre-sold boxes would always go out of stock in just a matter of days after they open it for reservation. I was so frustrated that every time I try to subscribe, that following month's box is already OOS. *sob But amidst my self-pity drama, this May BDJ Box came by surprise. Yehey! Talk about being blessed! :D

By the way, I got an email from BDJ officials few weeks back announcing that their monthly subscription would go from Php 480 to Php 580. The first thing that came to my mind was that I should've subscribed for a whole year before the price hike! It was sad, really. But knowing that I would get products worth 4 to 5 times the price I paid made it all okay. So far, I love everything from my April and May BDJ Boxes.. I can't wait for my next boxes to come! I'm sure it'll be super awesome. :)

Review: Hayan Solution Foam Cleanser

Normally, I wouldn't review a skincare product without using it for at least a month. But I guess there will always be an exception to the rule. And that exception came in the form of Hayan Solution Foam Cleanser. I've only been using this for a little over 3 weeks but I'm really surprised by the results that I decided to share it immediately so that my readers could also take advantage of the introductory sale/prices. To be fair, I'm also using a whole lot of other skincare products aside the ones I got from Hayan Korea (some products from Clinique and Ponds too).

Another reason for the quick review is that this tube already ran out yesterday. Apparently, both my younger brother and father were intrigued by the product and were surprised by the drastic change in my skin. Honestly, I think they were just jealous that my skin was clearing up. So they also decided to use it. Talk about a vain family. LOL! I can't blame them, can I? Although I must admit that it was also a big shock for me because they rarely use my skincare products - voluntarily, that is. :)

Product Information:

Review: Garnier Light Intensive 3 in 1 Whitening Essence Mask

I've always been a fan of sheet masks. They're a convenient way of pampering yourself at home while relaxing, watching television or reading a book. I'll let you in a little secret - I always make sure I have more or less 15 different sheets masks in my stash just in case my girl buds decide to hangout for some "girl time". Just like my eye cream and sun block, I prefer refrigerating my sheet mask 10-15 minutes before using it just makes it even more relaxing when used. Am I really that weird? LOL! Anyway, now that you know  these weird stuff about me, I guess I can now shamelessly share what I think about this new sheet mask I've tried - this Garnier Light Intensive 3 in 1 Whitening Essence Mask from my April BDJ Box. And another one from my May BDJ Box. :)
