Hi, Glamazons! I just did a mini unboxing of the EB Advance Glow Out Highlighters. I've attached the video below for you to see how it looks swatched on my arm and on my face.

Hi, Glamazons! My Skin Origins just launched their newest skincare additions on October 20, 2018. I'm so happy to be one of the first to them and to be present during their product launch. 

They released four new products and repackaged our favorite Brightening Pore Minimizer Toner for a fresh new look in a beautiful see-through bottle.



I got mine a few days before the official launch and after a week of using them, I can already see a beautiful difference.

During and after giving birth, my chloasma/melasma was so bad that I stopped taking pictures and being active on social media. I wasn't really feeling up to doing motdd  and beauty posts because I had to ride out most of my skin issues during pregnancy and I felt that there was so much work to be done with my skin after delivery. My neck, underarms  and face were having hyperpigmentation and acne scar issues that weighed heavily on my self-esteem. There were days when I even avoided looking at the mirror because there were so much of the marks and darkened areas I had to contend with. After I got the go signal for starting my skincare regimen, I went for the products that would speed up skin renewal and lighten my problem areas.  After 2 weeks, the Ultra White Set together with the Power Whitening Bar and Pore No More really improved my skin's appearance. Weeks later, the new products were launched and they were supposed to target my specific skin problems. They are indeed so much different than the products I've been using and I really love the packaging they come in.

How do I use these products? First, I use the Brightening Pore Minimizer to prep my skin after cleansing with Pore No More. Then I gently tap Stay (the serum) onto my face and neck until it's absorbed. At night, I use Preserve as my night cream and it dries into a demi matte finish and I set everything with Hydrate. I always wake up with smooth and supple skin when I use them at night. During the day, I use the Pore Brightening Minimizer and Stay just like my nightly routine but switch out Preserve with Breathe. Breathe is lightweight tinted sunscreen/skincare product that has color adapt technology.  I like using this as my primer for my motds. It doesn't have the usual gray cast you might expect from a product with spf. After Breathe has set on my face, I either use Hydrate to set it for makeup free days or put on some makeup then set with Hydrate.

A week after following this routine, my acne scars on the cheeks are barely noticeable now and the dark spots on my face and neck have lightened significantly. I plan to stick with this new skincare routine indefinitely because it helps me achieve the canvas I want for my motds.

Check these products out for yourself at any My Skin Origins Branch here in Davao City. They have one in Jacinto and one in Matina. You may also order their products at the My Skin Origins online store.

Thanks for dropping by and may the glam be with you always! :)

Hi, Glamazons! Here's an everyday motd I've been using since I gave birth. It's quick, easy, and more or less hypoallergenic. Except for the brow products and eyeliner, I'm currently favoring makeup from Clinique and Ellana Mineral Cosmetics. I've attached the video so you can watch how I do my MOTD. As a sweet bonus, the video features the hilarious voice-over by Jexx Hinggo and Gem Tadefa of The Bro Show.

Hi, Glamazons! I've been taking it easy with beauty blogging these past few months because I got pregnant and my hormones are all over the place. Motds are such a challenge with my skin breakouts and there are certain products I can't really use. I'm now 7 months pregnant and the one constant thing I've used before and after my pregnancy is My Skin Origins Shea Body Butter with Arbutin.

I started using My Skin's Body Butter last year because I had stretchmarks on my arms and legs. My ever fluctuating weight just wreaked havoc on my skin's elasticity and I had ugly marks on my arms since 2016-2017. I tried expensive creams and scar removers but the marks didn't show any signs of fading until I started using My Skin's Body Butter.

I noticed that the red marks gradually went from angry red, to dark brown, then to an almost invisible white on my arms and legs. Stretchmarks aren't fun. I had to cover up my arms for most of 2016 because I kept getting asked if they hurt or how I got them. In less than 2 months, my marks started fading when I used this body butter and I am currently using it on my huge baby bump to manage the marks showing up with each trimester.

Apart from the fact that it helped me diminish the appearance of my stretchmarks, I really love how moisturized my skin feels after application. Dry areas like the elbows, knees and heels really benefit from just a small amount of this body butter without it feeling to greasy or sticky like most body butters.



Right now, it is the number one beauty and skincare product in my arsenal because it helps me maintain my skin's moisture and helps me manage my stretchmarks. You just need to be consistent and use it after every bath.



This retails for about P380.00 at any My Skin Origins Skincare and Facial Center and you can actually start buying it online at the My Skin Origins Online Store.

Thanks for taking the time to read my review. I hope you try it for yourself and see what My Skin Origins Shea Cocoa with Arbutin Body Butter can do for you. May the glam be with you always! :)
