Get a Youthful, Glowing Skin with MaMa Lotion

I have recently discovered this all powerful potion care of my dermatologist. I was breaking out like crazy a couple of months back because of my hormonal problem, so I sought her help (again). She recommended me using MaMa Lotion to fade those dark spots caused by zits as well as to make the skin more supple and control the incoming flare ups.

You may wonder why is it called MaMa Lotion. I, on the other hand, thought that it has to do something with “mothers”. Ha-ha. I know it sounds silly. But, MaMa lotion is a 20% AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid) solution which consists of 10% Mandelic acid and 10% Malic acid and has an acidic ph of 2.5. So obviously, the name is gotten from the two acids it contains.

Kiehl’s Facial Fuel Non-Shine Lip Balm suits your lips sans the luster!

Kiehls Lip BalmKiehl’s is one of my favorite brands because of its moisturizing prowess. Now, I’m currently lemming for this lip balm in particular, Kiehls Facial Fuel Non-Shine Lip Balm.

This lip balm is said to work wonders relieving chapped or cracked lips in pronto. I have been suffering from painful chapped lips since I restarted taking my oral isotretinoin meds (in which one of the effects is dryness particularly on the lip area). It also temporarily protects lips sans the shine, leaving the pucker stick-and-grease free.

This pocket-sized lip balm costs $8.50 in a 4.4 g stick. Not bad, eh?

VNC Mid-Year Sale!

Shoe addicts must have already heard VNC’s ongoing mid-year sale in the Philippines which started from July 4, 2008 onwards. In case you’re unfamiliar with the brand, VNC (or Vincci) is one of the hottest Malaysian shoe brand, which makes me feel like owning a pair of Jimmy Choo’s sans the hefty price tag.

Discount is from 20-70% off, not bad should you wish to score a lovely pair of Vincci’s which normally costs around Php 1,000 and up. On the other hand, buying a pair in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia’s Capital) saves you up to 2/3 its regular price here. ;)

Fab discounted designs are running out so better hurry!

PS: Here’s what I got at 30 off the orig price of about Php 2,000 (more…)
