Celeteque is one of my most trusted brands when it comes to skin care. Infact, I have written several product reviews about their products. And due to a skin problem caused by warm weather, one of their I-haven't-tried-yet products will be put into test. Just recently, my hubby suffered from back acne.

Betaderm: Cure for Eczema

Eczema is a skin rash that is inflamed and itchy. The word itself comes from Greek language meaning “to boil”. Other name for this condition is dermatitis. There are several types of this illness including atopic or allergic eczema. The most common form is atopic eczema which is sometimes called allergic eczema . If someone is atopic that means he has a gene which is making his skin react to various allergens present in our midst. Things that can lead to this condition are viruses, allergens that start an irritation when they make contact with the skin or through stress. Once you have dermatitis, you will always be prone to it so the episodes may resurface until the end of your life.

Asian Secrets Body Scrubs #ProductReview #beautypost #skincare

Image
One of the skin care products I regularly use during shower is body scrub. Using body scrub is one of the best way to exfoliate your skin to improve it's texture. If you are a super busy mom like me who cannot sneak a short visit to spa salons for skin pampering like skin exfoliation or body scrub service, you can also do it at home and all that you need to have is body scrub and a loofah or exfoliating gloves.  I have already posted few reviews about body scrub in my blogs here  and here , that shows I am so into removing dead skin cells and pampering myself even at home. Using body scrub on a daily basis may take off healthy cells so it is advised to do it once or twice a week. If you have a sensitive skin, do it less. Also, don't scrub your skin too hard it may make your skin red.

Zalora Ph Shopping... Again!

I was cleaning up my emails when I saw a voucher from Zalora that was sent to me a couple of months ago after a collaboration with them. Oh my, I became too busy that I forget about this. I got excited so I thought to use it right away, I went to Zalora's website to see what I can get from my voucher.  I don't think I need to buy myself clothes so I thought to just buy footwears for my son and hubby. My son needs sneakers when he do physical activities outdoors so I thought to just buy him a pair of his own choice.
