Himalaya Acne and Pimple cream

Now anyone can have an acne treatment the herbal way with this product from Himalaya originally from East Indian brand that is now available in the Philippines
Product description: Controls acne and pimples.Keep skin soft.
The Great ingredients:
Silk cotton tree,with its astringent and cooling properties, controls acne and pimples and prevents future breakouts.
Five leaved chaste tree reduces skin inflammation.
Aloe vera heals  and softens the skin

Consistency is like a paste that absorbs on the skin easily.
Has a mild almost nothing leafy scent.

I use it twice daily before my moisturiser, yes it can be used during day time it is mattifying so you can apply to
whole face to keep shine at bay while treating pimples cause by sun or makeup. As for night when I woke up
in the morning bumps are flatten and my skin feel soft.
    
I recently had a 4 weeks purging stage because of Tretinoin, and this cream really heals, dried and diminish
the bumps cause by purging! Right now this become my maintenance after Tretinoin, Effectiveness is excellent
so I really recommend this because it's safe to use plus this contains no harsh chemicals just Herbals!

Hooray for Himalaya! Hooray for good skin!

Etude House Baby Skin Veiling pact


Product description: Silky powder supplies sun protection and moist sheer coverage. with SPF 22/PA++

Comes in a pink rectangle embossed compact with puff.


Quick review...

 




This gives me a very good oil control. Shine free for almost 4-6hrs, I'm using Loreal white perfect day cream as my moisturiser. The powder puff is very gentle and smooth when dab on skin which i love, the smell is like your usual baby powder. However the coverage is very sheer/light, concealer is a must for me to cover my blemishes. Available only in two shades, No. 2 for me but still it's very light for my skintone, hahah but what do i expect Etude house is a korean brand which means it suitable for korean skintones which i think is for cool undertones, and i'm on the warm side. Anyways i noticed that after applying, it will really look like pale on me but after a few minutes or so it blends with my skintone, so no worries of looking pale at all. =) 



Where to buy: SM Megamall blg A. near Go nuts donuts
Price: 400+

Next to try:BB Magic Pact

Organic Lipbalm

Let me share with you my HG lipbalms that give my lips the moisture and protection that I need everyday, plus it's organic so it's very safe for our lips.There are two kinds of lipbalms that I love:
The Alba Un-petroleum and  Alba Botanica Terratints



Now for their difference..
The un-petroluem is simply a lipbalm that has a flavor, mine is Vanilla =) with spf 18, and the Terratint is a lipbalm that has a sheer color,the one from the pic is Bloom shade(pinkish) , also available in other shades as well it also has a minty taste that i love,70% organic and has a lower spf which is 8. 



I regularly use any of them and these are definitely a staple in my kikay kit. Both don't have a waxy feel on the lips that I experienced with other lipbalm(o that Chapstick!) hahah
THE PERFECT PAIR
I usually pair the Terratint with any Lip tints,bcoz my lips is dry with just a liptint alone. I put My body shop tint first and top it with Terratint lipbalm and im ready to go =).


 And the un-petroleum balm is perfect with any lipstick. I put the Lipbalm first and top it with lipstick! moisture all day! Love love!
