DIY: Coffee body scrub

I've been searching for something that will exfoliate my skin, so I decided to make an inexpensive skin care which is DIY Coffee body scrub in such an easy way!


Here's what you need:

3/4 cup of Coffee grounds
1/4 cup Salt
2-3 tbsp baby oil/ canola oil/ olive oil

BENEFITS:

Coffee grounds
It helps to exfoliate and slough of your dead skin. As I have researched on further, they say it reduces cellulites but I was kinda skeptic about it, dunno how it was done. Who knows?

Salt
Usually it uses to heal infections/wounds so it's better to add salt to your scrub especially to your "unknown" causes of cuts, wounds and even itches.

Oil
As the coffee grounds sloughs off your dead skins, now it's time to moisturize and smoothen your happy skin! =)


Mix everything in a container..

An apple a day keeps the doctor away! :))



Happy long weekend!

What I just bought from VMV Hypoallergenics

Worth 580Php

My skincare is not much into makeups which gives weight to my face that makes me so uneasy. Lip balm/gloss, loose powder and eyeliner is fine, sometimes BB cream. So I prefer more of a cleanser and moisturizer.

I first heard of VMV Hypoallergenics from the blogs I read and has pretty much of good feedbacks and reviews so I got curious and bought it yesterday at Glorietta.

My previous facial wash was Milk tea facial foam from Etude House which lasts for a year. You may notice that I only use one facial wash per year. Because.. That's me.

Anyway, I tried it awhile ago to my face, and I'm happy to say that I'll be buying one again from their boutique. This orange cream has this small beads to sloughs off my dry and rough skin particularly on my nose and forehead. The after effect still made my skin smooth and moisturized unike other wash I used that I have to frequently put on moisturizer.

They also accept major credit cards.

ABOUT MY SKIN:

My Skin type?

Normal to dry skin

Zits?

None. But only during PMS and lack of sleep.

Allergies?

Hmm.. Dust maybe. Usually if the climate is hot, my pores on my nose opens and itchy!

Skincare intervals?

I wash my face 2x a day (morning and night)

Other skincare?

Massaging your face upward will make your skin relax

Shawill BB cream

All right! let me tell you a story about this BB cream.
I already tried and applied it on my face (yeah, to my whole face!) when I was browsing makeups from Watson's 2-3 weeks ago.


YESTERDAY..


At first, I was being skeptical to buy this product, because when I read the box it says something about china. So okay??? The sales lady says that it made from Italy, the content it's manufacturing code blah-blah.


In the end....I bought it.

When I went home, I rushed to my laptop to search about this. Some may like it, some may not.
What they say.. "I don't like it coz it's like chinchunsu thingieeee" or something like that. But then, I felt "Oh man! Dagnabbit."


In the end... I tried it. ( stubborn huh?)


I tried it first on sensitive part of my skin. (or skin test) within 12 hours.

AFTER

Okay, the result was okay, nothing happened. The BB cream blends to my skin color and it does not come up with a smell of chinchunsu (I keep on smelling it, really!) The funny thing here is, I ALREADY APPLIED IT ON MY FACE BEFORE THIS SKIN TEST. Formality sakes! :)

WHAT IS MY SKIN TYPE?

Well, It's normal - dry skin type.

SKIN COLOR?

Fair skin

WHY BUY?
It's inexpensive for only P168!


WHERE TO BUY THIS PRODUCT?
Any Watson's store


REACTION?
For me, I think it suits me. Better to have it tested first to your skin before applying it ok?especially if you have sensitive skin.
Let's stay pretty!
