Bye-bye Cellulites!

There are TONS of slimming, reshaping products in the market. How many have you tried hoping THIS is the one that's going to work for you?

I've had my fair share of keeping my fingers crossed in this area. Being a thin girl (yes I still think of myself as a girl, not a woman), it is unsightly to have huge thighs complete with cellulites. There was a time I wasn't wearing mini skirts just to hide those ugly orange peels.

I first saw an ad of my now-HG product at Femalenetwork. Thinking that I have only around P540 to lose, I bought myself a tube of this to try. I started using this on November 30, 2008.

Imagine my absolute surprise when my thighs got a little bit thinner and definitely a lot firmer after two weeks!!! AND I AM NOT KIDDING.

I am in my second tube now and I am loving the results. Before, I acn jiggle the back of my thighs even when I'm standing, now there is no jiggling area. Ü

With the firming comes the disappearance of cellulites. There is practically minimal cellulites when my thighs are pressed.

Now it's really nice that I have finally found something that works for me. My P540 is definitely worth it!

Have a hairy new year!

It's a few hours before January 2009, and I must say 2008 has been an interesting year for me.

I have eaten in countless restaurants to satisfy my cravings and curiosity; I have been to a lot of places I have never been to; Countless products have come and touched my skin, a few have become staple in my regimen.

One of the products that I have been using for the longest time is the A Bonne Vitamin Complex Intensive Vitamin Hair Treatment.

I have been a loyalist of this product since 2005 and I must say, this is the one conditioner I keep coming back to.

Consistency is really thick; you have only to scoop a 5-peso size blob, spread it on you palm and on your hair. Leave on for about five minutes before rinsing and you'll come out of the shower with shiny, silky hair.

I don't feel comfortable with going out of the house with wet hair. Imagine the dirt and dust clinging to it, ugh. I sit in front of the fan while putting on lotion (Let's save the lotion blog for another day) and by the time I step out of the house, I have shiny, smooth, silky hair! This lasts the whole day too, no stringy and rough hair by the time office lets out as I have experienced with other conditioners.

This has been with me for a long time and will surely be with me for a looong loong time to come. Ü

Olay Total Effects Sample

Olay is giving it out free 8g samples of their new Total Effects, and I claimed mine at SM Makati last night.

I like the packaging. The color kind of reminds me of Pantene (click here to see what I mean), but it gave off a class and no-nonsense vibe.

Not only did I get an 8g sample that is good for three days, I also got a P100 discount voucher.

I'll be asking my dad to try this as he has dry skin, and because I am under a beauty regimen that I am reviewing. :)

Check back for results!

Beauty is Skin Deep

Hi, I am S, and I am a sun worshipper.

Or at least I used to be a sun worshipper.

I TEMPORARILY (sorry I'm not ready to put a permanent closure on my tanning opportunities) abandoned my quest for golden caramel skin when my boyfriend, who shall be named CF, sweetly informed me he likes my fair-skinned look better than my tan.

For as long as I can remember, I have always brought tanning lotions with me to the beach while the rest of my friends brought sunblocks with the highest SPF's. Sometimes, I even forgo the tanning lotion just for the sake of getting the most out of the sun. Bad, I know.

The last time I went to the beach, the obedient me packed a bottle of sunblock with SPF75, a que horror accessory in my tanning days. I didn't get to use it though since I skipped the swimming part in favor of shooting landscape and portraits.

Bottom line, do guys like Snow-Whites or Sun Goddesses?

I would appreciate you dropping some of your inputs.
