Eyelash Extensions

Since Eyelash extensions is the newest beauty trend. I would like to make a review about it. I'm talking about semi permanent eyelash extensions here, those that would last 1month in your eyes. I got addicted to this for sometime or for about 3months to be specific. I remember, I tried this out of curiosity at eyelash extension salon,greenhills. I tried the flair package in long length for 350php, they have different package and it differs on the number of pieces of eyelash hairs. I remember 275 to be the cheapest upto 1,500.

Pros
It's an instant make-over if you want to look different.
It can really open your eyes, making it more attractive
Not so expensive
No need for long hours facing and gluing eyelash extensions


Cons
Looks ugly when some pcs. are already falling off
You can't wash your face properly and you need to be really gentle taking a bath
You can't put liquid eyeliner
Looks dirty after some time, so you need to have it repaired and treated every after 2-3weeks
Even if its kinda cheap, I still think its impractical and waste of money since you have to treat it so often and have to pay for hair pcs. used. Imagine spending 350-500 every two weeks for repair.
Lastly, when it falls off your original eyelash hair goes with it leaving your eyes bald.

Sample of my eyelash extensions in flair long length.

latest whitening product

On my previous post, I posted there the products I'm fond of using, but now I have made some changes with my daily regimen for whiter skin. Here are the products I'm happy using now

Top gel Papaya Soap

I think its really effective when it comes to whitening plus I love the candy papaya smell. I use it all over my body including my face and let it stay for 1min. or 2 before rinsing.

Now, since as we all know most papaya soap is drying, I use this  after top gel to provide my skin moisture and make it soft.

Skin Whitening - Soap

Most of us Asians really wants to become porcelain white, to have that goddess white skin that head turns when you stroll around the mall. I don't know how the aim for white skin all started in Philippines all I know ever since High School I've dreamed of ever becoming fair not just fair but paper white.
This blog will be a review on different products I've tried and they're results as far as whitening is concerned.
Regarding with Glutathione's  I will make a different blog review about it.


Silka Papaya Soap- On of the ever first whitening soap I've tried and used this the longest. Been loyal to this for almost 3-4years. All I can say is that this soap is really gentle and good soap for the face, there's whitening effect but not drastic. What I like about this soap is that it made my face smooth and free from pimples and blemishes. With regard to overall body skin lightening no drastic results. :)

Maxi Peel Exfoliant Soap- This is very effective when it comes to skin whitening, received alot of  compliments on how fair I've become when I was using this soap but the downpart  is I got allergic reaction to it. I think its because of the exfoliant ingredients that tends to be harsh on my sensitive skin. but this product is really effective with regards to skin whitening.

Glutamaxx- I like this soap as well as its smell, been using this for like months I didn't see any drastic whitening changes. What I like about this soap is it leaves your skin soft and moisturize that there's no need to apply lotion.















Orange Peel L-glutathione- Love this soap but find this one kinda expensive for daily use, since I don't just use 1soap, I use around 2-3 soaps.

Black Pearl- Bright effect upon 1-3 used, I'm not that satisfied with Whitening effect

Kojic Acid Soap- effective for skin whitening but it darkens armpit, I think because of the strong chemicals.























What I'm using and loving now

Maxi Peel Papaya Soap- I saw whitening effect though not drastic but I'm satisfied with it. Color of this soap is orange. The papaya didn't give me the rashes and allergic reaction I had with the Green one- the original maxi peel exfoliating soap..

Dove Gentle Exfoliation- It leaves my skin supple and moisturized that I don't have to worry even if I can't put on lotion sometimes. Plus the gentle exfoliation effects also help whitens skin.

hellooooow

First post will obviously be on why I made this blog so here's the reasons why.

I love talking and dreams of becoming a reality talk show host someday but waking up to reality I blog instead.
Blogging is like an outlet of all my rants and whatabouts of my thoughts, reactions and reviews of events down to the smallest things like the latest beauty products I bought.
I would gladly share everything and anything here that might be helpful and fun. I don't intend to have followers but if you do like my blog please feel free to follow.
