Filed under Beauty
Ladies (though not discounting the men who are also present) gathered at The Loft in Manansala Tower located in Rockwell, Makati City on the night of the 25th to delve into the much awaited OLAY skin care line which promises a science which will help achieve a laser-less treatment for regenerating younger beautiful skin. Fashioned in black and red, all welcomed Regenerist, the laser-less option for cell regeneration.
The SkinDeep program was hosted by OLAY Ambassador Daphne Oseña, who eased the audience into a no-nonsense talk on laser treatments, anti-aging and what the Regenerist line offers. Leading dermatologists Dr. Ma. Pia …read more

Note to self: buy Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil.
Yes, I keep forgetting to buy one. *kicks herself*
But perhaps it’s a good thing cuz look at what I tripped on — Limited Edition High Performance Balancing Cleansing Oil (Advance Formula), something new from Shu Uemura.
Evolved from the original shu uemura cleansing oil, “Classic” is reformulated with an advanced High Performance Cleansing Oil system for significantly improved removability of waterproof make-up. Two-in-one cleanser and make-up remover helps maintain the skin’s integral balance by removing impurities without stripping the skin of its essential moisture. Camellia Oil protects and rejuvenates the skin while Ginger Root …read more

OLAY White Radiance Foaming Cleanser
All skin types
Refreshing deep cleansing action; washes away oil, dirt, and makeup that makes the skin look dark and dull.
Surprisingly, I’ve managed to finish ALL my facial wash tubes. I had been alternately using the Nivea Visage Refreshing Water Cleansing Gel and the Céleteque Facial Wash. The only one left is the RevaléSkin Facial Cleanser. Good thing that my schedule today had allowed a bit of shopping, grabbed a new product to try out. It’s the OLAY White Radiance Foaming Cleanser.

This wasn’t the first time I brought the RevaléSkin Skincare System with me to the beach. I find them a good companion in caring for my skin. I guess I see the time I spend on the beach as an opportunity to relax — do some hardcore skincare rituals — a way to detoxify and stuff. After all, I’m far from the usual dirt and pollution of the city, might as well make full use of the break to let my skin re-charge, so to speak.
I brought with me the entire RevaléSkin set which includes the Facial …read more

Selectively removes dirt and excess sebum while it respects skin’s own lipids.
Enriched with specially selected moisturisers, it gently removes sebum and other skin impurities.
I’ve slightly been having problems with my skin breaking out lately. Nothing too serious, most are easily repairable but I’m not used to it. I don’t breakout this easily. This brings me to wonder if any of the products I’ve been using are suspect. First on the list is my …read more
bench/ Green Tea Invigorating Facial Cleanser
March 4, 2008 by Sasha Manuel
Filed under Makeup
Think baby wipes but used to clean and refresh facial skin. I came across this product during my last minute shopping for my trip (I’m back in Manila btw). I reckon it’ll prove to be a handy thing for travels esp something like what I just had.
A couple of things I expected were issues on time constraints and mobility. I still had hygienic needs esp my face. Will I have time to dash off to a powder room to freshen up? Would it be too bulky to bring soap and a towel while I walk around? What about the long …read more

Dove Cool Moisture Foaming Facial Cleanser
This foaming facial cleanser works into a rich lather that deeply cleans and moisturizes your skin. Gently cleanses tired, stressed skin and leaves your face refreshed and hydrated.
I’ve been using this facial foam for weeks now. Actually, I use two different foams, one is for exfoliation purposes from Pond’s (which I’ll probably tell you guys about in a later post) and this one from Dove, which mainly addresses my need to moisturise, and hydrate my skin. I reckon I already mentioned just how frequent I wash my face in a day. With the rate …read more

Soy Formula f21c Face Cleanser
A silky, smooth cleanser that effortlessly melts away makeup while toning the skin, reviving the eyelid area and conditioning the eyelashes in the process. A glowing, bright and clear complexion in one simple step!
After the Bento Beauty Project wherein I talked about putting on makeup, we’ll now talk a bit about post-makeup regimen. Yes. Removing the beautiful makeup you’ve laboured to put on. Hehe.
Of course, as much as the next person, I’m a bit of a lazy lady when it comes to removing makeup. I know, I know. Another bad habit. I do make it a …read more
