I love summer vacation. Ah love it because there’s no stress and pressure from schoolworks.
We are going to the beach this Sunday and I have a problem. I’m still on the peeling process. It’s just a light peel on the face but I know I need to stay away from sun exposure. I also need to wear sunblock.
But sunblock is useless here even if it’s SPF 100. The temperature is so hot plus,the sun’s heat is too much.
I admit, Im not the outdoor type but I like seeing amazing places. I only go out at 8am and go out again at 4pm. Especially during summer vacations. 
)
I’m like “hey let’s go to the mall and watch movie and pigout” instead of travelling. Me and my close friend are the same, yes we’re boring. ) I think my body is weak because I always get dizzy when I go to hot places. I ruin the situation and my family ends up worrying about me instead.
Well I dont want to disappoint them so I’ll still go. I decided to do a chemical peel because I want to lighten dark spots. Too much sun exposure after a peel will lead to skin darkening.
I want to stay at the cabin more than the shore. But I dont want to be KJ. I’ll just put on sunblock and wear a hat. 
Goodluck to me. 
Mizon All in One Snail Repair Cream review
Hi readers, I’m here again to review a Korean product. It’s a snail cream from Mizon.
I read some reviews about it and I found out that it gives a matte finish compared to Elisha Coy’s snail cream. I have oily skin so I thought this one would work well for me. I bought this for less than 1000 pesos including the shipping fee. It’s much affordable compared to other sellers.
The packaging looks like this. It’s in a glass jar.
Here are the description, instructions and ingredients:
Im using this for 3 months and as you can see in the pic below… I’m almost done with my first jar.
What I liked:
** I think this product has the highest snail secretion filtrate
** Does not contain any paraben
** Moisturizes my skin especially the dry areas
** A little amount goes a long way
** Makes my skin soft and plump
** Gives a matte finish
** Helped to heal my “unintentionally” popped pimples (yes, I dont pop them anymore)
** Did not make my skin more oilier BECAUSE I use enough cream only just to make my skin moisturized
What I dislike:
** Did not prevent breakouts and did not lighten my super duper dark spots. I can officially say now that my skin got used to snail secretion. 
For those who have dry and wrinkly skin, this one’s perfect for you. I still think this works wonders for the skin although it didnt prevent my breakouts.
I took the pics above last week and right now Im finished with my first jar. I’m thinking of buying Emu Oil because it has antibacterial properties that might help to heal and prevent pimples.
Maybelline Baby Lips review
This is gonna be a quick review about Maybelline’s Baby Lips Lipbalm.
My sister bought this because she thought it was tinted and the design looks cute.
She gave it to me because she’s not a lipbalm user. I agree, the design looks cute with all the blue and pink thingy.
Im sure it’s affordable. I think it’s less than 100 pesos. It’s easy to twist the bottom part. It glides smoothly. The color is white and when you apply, it gives a glossy effect.
It moisturizes the lips plus it has SPF 20. It lasts for 6 to 8 hours based on my experience. Btw, I ate and drank that time. My lips felt really soft and smooth.
Overall, I liked it. You dont have to spend a lot to have moisturized and soft lips.
What’s your favorite lipbalm?

Celeteque Hydration Alcohol Free Toner review
Celeteque Hydration Alcohol Free Toner
I’m here again to post another skincare review. Most people’s advice is to avoid products with alcohol. They say it’s harmful to our skin. OMG. All my life I’ve been using products with alcohol.
I decided to buy Celeteque’s Alcohol Free Toner. I cant find other alcohol free toner at the supermarket aside from this one. I was curious what does it feel like to use alcohol free stuffs? )))
I’ve been using this for almost 2 months. Here are the things that I experienced while using this:
What I like:
** It does prepare my skin for moisturizing
** It’s not drying
** The soothing scent
** It doesnt sting
** Gentle for the skin
What I dislike:
** Like what I said with Cetaphil’s Cleanser… It’s too gentle for my acne prone skin. I feel like it didnt remove all the dirt on my face plus I got few pimples.
Now I know the difference, Most of the time it stings when Im using toners with alcohol but it doesnt when Im using alcohol free toner.
btw, I forgot the price… I think it’s 120 pesos.
I think this didnt beat my favorite Celeteque’s Acne Solutions Oil Control Toner.
I’ll be back again tomorrow to post a review about my current favorite soap.
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser review
Good evening readers! Im officially back to blogging. It’s difficult for me to post anything because Im just using a tab. I cant view WordPress on desktop and on my phone. It’s so difficult for me to upload pics. I hope you’ll understand.
Anyways, Im prepping up for a TCA Peel but Im still not yet ready for that. I hope I’ll have the courage to do it. I read a lot of tips regarding the peel and dermatologists recommend gentle cleansers.
So I bought Cetaphil’s famous gentle cleanser. It costs 319 pesos. It’s a bit expensive.
Here are the instructions and ingredients:
There are some things I like and dislike about this cleanser.
What I like:
It doesnt make my skin feel tight
Fragrance free which is good for those who are sensitive to strong scents/smell
Non comedogenic… it doesnt clog pores
Makes my skin retain its moisture
Can be bought at leading drugstores
After using it, my skin feels soft
What I dislike:
Contains lots of Paraben
The soap free thingy because it feels like my skin is still not clean after using this
I think this is too gentle for my super duper oily skin.
Got some pimples maybe because it doesnt remove all the dirt and I paired this with a gentle toner
Overall, this is a so so product. Im just sad because it’s too gentle for my skin. Hmmmmp. I think my skin got used to products with alcohol and other harsh chemicals.
What’s your favorite cleanser? Do you know other gentle cleansers, please share them below.
I missed blogging
