Skin Mate Beauty Products

I am actually in the process of trying new skin products and would love to share with you guys the result once I am done with the peeling process and the maintenance part.


I started using this last month 1st week of April 2017 and since I promised to look for a substitute in my expensive Beauche beauty regimen I'll be writing my experience and review for this Skin Mate Beauty Products very very soon. 

Well, these beauty products come in cheap and with very few steps to achieve the result. I took a picture while inside the mall. Before trying this, of course, I read articles about reviews, experiences, and complaints to educate myself on the effect of this new product that I will be trying. Another thing is that the availability of this product was kinda scarce. I tried to check the following stores here on the south side of the metro and this is only available in one place. Unlike Beauche, you could find it everywhere. Skin Mate is not available in Mercury Drugstores, Watsons in/out of SM, and Pure Gold here in the south. 

My review will be out very very soon, and please be advised that I am not being paid to do this review.

Jedi's Athletes Foot

Just the other day, I saw my daughter Jedi scratching her feet and upon closer look, I found out some little tiny scaly wounds growing and with no doubt, this is an athlete's foot. I just can't believe it, it is so plentiful. She started to ask me questions about what is it, so I get hold of her iPad and typed in the words, and presto I am now reading to her what kind of skin disease she does have.


It is actually nice to have a moment like this with your daughters and to educate them where such skin diseases came from, their effects, and preventions. I showed them pictures of how such a disease varies each appearance from a different level and all they can say is "oh, how yucky!" "It's not nice Mami!" and my little one says "and it stinks too!".


I tried to search local medicines that are available in the Philippine market right now and thank YOU, LORD, there are creams such as bioderm, Nizoral, katialis to name a few, and soaps to heal and get rid of it. You could check on this page the prices just typed in the name of the medicine and it will give you the information and the prices http://www.thefilipinodoctor.com/index.php



Soaps that are available in our market right now were Dr. Kaufmann and Dr. S WongYou could check on this page the prices just typed in the name of the medicine and it will give you the information and the prices http://www.thefilipinodoctor.com/index.php 


Our 1st step is to give her soap only for her foot not to be shared with anybody parts or to anybody to stop the spread of fungal infection. After drying her feet the creams will be applied to have those little fungi dried up. My youngest has been advised and educated about this and is very active in sharing her questions participated in reminding her sissy of the step-by-step procedure.  

2nd step is that I asked her not to use her fabric doll shoes that she dearly love. We did replace these shoes with open-toe sandals and rubber-made sandals to eliminate odor and to keep her feet fresh and dry or just in case her foot became sweaty she could easily wipe it with a cloth or tissue paper. 

We are currently in the process of healing and will give an update about the outcome.

Beauche Skin Products

Sa dami nang lumalabas na skin whitening products ngayon malilito ka na kung anu talaga yung totoo, yung talagang maibibigay yung promised result sa iyo and yung wala lang pan-sayang pera lang.


I have tried several and would like to share to you yung talagang effective na nag work sa akin at the same time delivered the expected result. I started using Beauche way back 2015 and indeed I can say that the result is indeed good and made my skin flawless. It made people noticed and asked me what I am using. Very visible kasi yung result naman nya talaga, however very pricey sya and di sya praktikal for a plain housewife though I am not a plain housewife pero I value hard earned money. At the same time yung Beauche and tinatawag na Tiis-Ganda-Product. Why Tiis-Ganda? Kasi masakit sya sa mukha yet titiisin mo para lang gumanda. Beauche products will make your skin flawless-white and gives it pinkish glow lalo na if you are standing under the heat of the sun( this is after the peeling process). Beauche is my beauty regimen and I am actually on the process of trying a new product from the start of April 2017. I will also share it with you guys once I have proven the result.  

Let me share my experience and review about this product. To get the effect that this beauty product promised, you have to follow directions below; By the way in every starter pack that you will purchase they provided step by step procedure written in a small paper.  

Night Applications
soap-toner-clarifying solutions-exfoliating cream-rejuvenating cream

Day Applications
soap-clarifying solutions-age eraser cream

Sa mga unang araw the application were okay and smooth, wala ka pang ma raramdaman na itchiness or sakit since yung pag-babalat will take place after 3 days. If you wanted a speedy skin peeling you have to increase the amout of exfoliating cream na i-aapply mo sa area ng face mo like sa forehead, jaw line, temple kasi ito yung mga areas na matagal mag-balat or kung minsan di sya talaga nag-babalat. When the peeling started dyan ka na makaka-ramdam ng sakit lalo na pag pinahidan mo na ng clarifying solution yung newly peeled skin. 

Grabeh! ang hapdi at ang sakit nya lalo na pag nilagyan mo na sya ng exfoliating cream. Mapapamura ka talaga sa sakit mga bessie! Di lang yon, pag nasa process ka na ng pag babalat at gumamit ka na ng sabon sa face at neck mo ganuon din. Mahapdi sya at masakit. Kaya makaka ilang banlaw ka para lang mawala yung paghapdi nya. If you wanted to use this product, I highly reccommend wag summer season mo sya gamitin dahil you won't last to stand under the heat of the sun- masakit sya or even kahit sa hangin ng summer kasi nga manipis yung skin mo sa face newly peeled sya kaya ang laki ng chance na mag-karon ka ng skin irritations. Maganda itong gamitin during rainy season or yung pa-December kung saan malamig ang panahon.

For me, yung isang starter pack ay di sumasapat sa unang gamit kasi di lahat ng skin mo nag peeled off na so sa akin I normally have 2 of those para lang ma-totally complete yung pag babalat ng skin ko sa mukha at leeg. Then after nung peeling process all you have to do is to maintain the effect. For maintenance naman eto na lang yung ginagamit ko;

Night Applications
soap-clarifying solutions-rejuvenating cream

Day Applications
soap-clarifying solutions-age eraser cream
       
So far the effect in me were indeed good, however using this product depends on your skin type. May product kasi na pupuedeng effective sa isa pero hindi sa iba. I have read different views, reactions, commendations and even complains on this product. And ugaliin po natin na mag-basa-basa ng mga reactions ng iba para we will be eduated sa mga produkto na gagamitin po natin. In using and trying Beauche' it is of your own risk, if you see that there are manifestations na wala sa mga nabasa mo na skin reactions then it is a call for common sense to stop using it. 

My Take on this product were as follow;

LIKES: it made my skin flawless white and has a pinkish glow 

DISLIKES: expensive (I provided a price list below for your reference), too many solutions/creams to put on your face to achieve the best result, ouchy/painful experience during the peeling process (this could be traumatizing to some) 



Paalala: I am not being paid by the product company for this review.

Let me show you pictures of mine when I started using Beauche up to this time. Wala po itong filter dahil di pa uso yung beautify sa samsung cellphone way back then, even on my latest pictures di po ako gumagamit ng filter.

Pililia Rizal Sunset


Sunset view from the mountains of Pililia, Rizal

"As the day comes to a close, the setting sun showers the world with a symphony of colors,
bidding us goodnight until dawn."



"The setting sun paints the sky in vibrant hues, leaving a trail of magic behind, a gift for those who take the time to look up."



"Sunsets are a reminder that even the most brilliant things must come to an end,
making space for new possibilities to unfold."

Conversation with my Heart

As I was reading back on my Penzu Online Diary, I saw some entries there that made me smile and thank the LORD ALMIGHTY for the life and the family that HE has given me. One particular entry is this conversation with my youngest daughter Heart.

Tuesday 21June2016

I love Jehiel Heart for being so outspoken and very expressive about how she feels.

Heart💓: Mami, please I want to cut my hair so that my itchiness in my neck will disappear

iStar⭐: It would be nice for little girls to have long hair. Do you know any Disney Princesses who have short hair?

Heart💓: (Answered in a loud voice) Of course Yes!, Rapunzel duh!!

iStar⭐: (Taken aback by her reply) But if your hair will be short, we cannot do anything on it anymore like puka or braid like Elsa and Anna

Heart💓: (Made her thinking and answered with a sad voice) Okay, I think it's better not to cut it so that we could still style it...

iStar⭐: Yes! (thinking- I won this battle with Heartie!:)

Thoughtful Bunging-Ging

My daughter approached me last night and gave me something- telling me that she prepared my viand for tomorrow. Mind you she is only 10years old yet so advance on her age.

I opened it and saw chopped tomatoes, steamed camote leaves, bagoong alamang with calamansi.

If you grew up in the province this is not new to you as everyone I know who grew up there ate this kind of viand. Yes, this is a viand (ulam) already for me.

Awww, I thanked her for such a yummy, healthy, and delicious meal. 

All I need for tomorrow is to partner it with steamed rice.

Wow, such a lovely treat.


Thank you so much, Jedi for this simple yet delicious baon for me. 

I know you prepared this with love and all your might.

I appreciate it so much, dear. Praise YOU dear Jesus for this wonderful blessing.

1 Year @ Casto Travel

Today marked my 1st year anniversary working here at Casto Travel Philippines. 

I, Lawrence Ilagan, and Emjay Ulanday were batch mates, and Thank you Lord that we are still here working. It's nice that we were able to endure hardship and trials within a year. Both of them still count for more years to come.

Just recently, I passed my resignation and was supposed to stay until 7 May 17. However, my supervisor asked me to stay up until 31May17. They still need to hire and train two more agents for our account. I feel for her, yet I don't want to stay just to stay because the account needs me. There are a lot of reasons why I have to go. 1st of is my kids, I need someone to look -after my kiddos whom I would have a permanent schedule to work (Casto does not offer that- our schedule changes every 2 months), next- It is so hard to ask for leave even though you still have leave credits to spend, another thing is emergency leave- that you cannot predict when to happen. You cannot do call-ins as your team members were very limited and covering you would cause sacrifices and chaos in your entire team's schedule.

I actually do not want to be a pain in their asses since I am a single mom and my kids are my priority. Yes, I need a stable job, with good pay, a good schedule, good health care benefits for my kiddos, and a job where I could learn and grow. Casto is a good Company for mature workers however there are some unavoidable circumstances that I can't handle.

The LORD gave me this job and I am not afraid that HE will also take this job away. I am just here praying and being obedient to HIS ways.

Praise and honor be YOURs forever and ever.

Dawn



"Sunrises offer a breathtaking glimpse into the wonders of the universe, a reminder that we are part of something grander than ourselves."



There's something magical about the stillness of dawn as if the world is holding its breath in anticipation of the day to come."
