Watsons & Guardian hair haul

better late than never ladies! been contemplating what to post for today and really can't make up my mind haha. been under the weather for a couple of days now - i hate colds! been sneezing and blowing my nose every 5 minutes - so yucky! ugh.

anyhoo, you'd know i've finally decided because i'm posting now hehe. thought i'd share what i hauled at Watsons and Guardian recently - and you won't guess it: haircare products! (^_^) i cannot buy makeup for a long time (as per my hubby) so why not buy other stuff? hehe.


more pictures and short impressions after the jump!

i've been on a hunt for a clarifying shampoo since i've been using hair spray and frizz control products, they've been building up residue on my hair which makes it a lot more brittle!! (T_T) well, i did a leap of faith and got TRESemme deep cleansing shampoo and the recommended partner, remoisturising conditioner. it was a great decision to get these! never felt my hair so manageable, shiny and naturally feeling healthy for a long time! i'll post a separate review on them soon.






i've discovered Lucido-L while looking for anti-frizz products that i can replace Advance Techniques Frizz Control Lotus Shield with. i thought of trying this because Nikki of Askmewhats previously commented she loved their products. she was so right! i love that these comes in smaller jars, perfect for trying out and travelling. been using the Ex Treatment (Silky Sleek) for weeks now and i am hooked! not yet tried the Round Ridge (Bouncy Curls) yet but will soon. review and more insights on these on a separate post.


the last item i hauled is an accident. i was already on my way to the cashier when i noticed this as it was beside Lucido-L products. the name already catches my attention: Liese Smooth Hair Cocktail. even the packaging is uber enticing! it promises to smoothen out tangled hair - who hasn't experienced that one time or another? i know i have, especially when i wake up in the morning or after piling on so much products on my hair that i've residue buildup. i've tried this twice but i feel like i should put it to a test so i'm testing it still and will post a review later.



never knew i'd add another drugstore must-visit: Guardian!

do you lassies spend on your tresses? what are your must-haves?

enjoy the rest of this rainy Tuesday!

Get ready for the BF!

Yes, it's that day of the year again waited upon by eager shoppers -- Black Friday. I think it's one of the best times of the year to hoard for almost anything and everything, especially if you're based in the US. Why? Across all kinds, brands and range of products and items there are just so much variety to choose from at highly discounted prices. This "shopping holiday" is strategically practiced just a few days shy from the Christmas gift-giving season so shopping for yourself and loved ones (and may be for your enemies too!) just got a lot more convenient, timely and cost-effective. Good news for Singapore-based gals like us, Black Friday has definitely rubbed off on some local companies who's merrily jumping onto the sales bandwagon. Nowadays, this is even sweeter as the deals are not only available at our favorite or popular department stores and boutiques but available dominantly in online shopping! I'm a busy momma -- what with my crazy workload

i got BELOfied!

i went back to Manila around late second week of July to get my 3rd ESWL . but before that, i went to Belo at The Residences @ Greenbelt with my youngest sister to get a facial and advice on how to improve our skin. i've never had facial EVER before so i didn't know what to expect. when we arrived, the ladies at the reception greeted us promptly and asked our names to know our appointment. the ambiance of the clinic is very serene, inviting and pleasant. immediately after getting in, i inhaled this clean, jasmine(?) aroma - uhm, very soothing. one of the ladies at the reception received us, then ushered us into available seats and shortly thereafter were offered drinks then asked to fill up a form (since it's our first time there). after a little while, we were assisted to our respective treatment rooms for the facial. my facialist that day was Matet. she was pretty (her skin was radiant!), professional and very accomodating with my queries. she also made me feel at

Belo (Acne) Oil Control Kit review

*post changed on 9th January 2012: i've only noticed that i actually wrote "Belo ACNE Control Kit" when i got several comments on this post. it should be "Belo OIL Control Kit". i'm not sure if that stirred some confusion or if there is an acne kit per se but just to clarify, that the set i got is BELO OIL CONTROL KIT. so sorry for the confusion previously! previously, i've shared with you that i've tried Belo Acne  Oil Control Kit when i went for my very first facial and at the well-renowned Belo medical clinic (went at their Greenbelt branch). after finishing the entire line, i'd like to share my thoughts and experience. first, to refresh your memory of what the kit includes: i was advised with the following regimen: Morning: Glycolic Soap 5% Belo Prescriptives Pore Minimizer CHAT 2% Sunblock Gel Evening: Glycolic Soap 5% Belo Prescriptives Pore Minimizer CHAT 2% Daily Peel Solution on the Glycolic Soap: - i've never us
