Things I Bought Online that:

a. are good buys
b. I have repurchased

HAIR CARE: 


Purchased - 2 times

Starting this with the reason why I decided to compose this post.
 I've had a whole body massage recently and my masseuse told me that my initially thick hair has become thicker. The last time I had my massage with her was more or less six months ago. 

Aside from the oil and scalp massager, I didn't change anything from my routine for the past months so it's probably the new hair oil, isn't it?

In December 2023, I posted about my  4th CGM Anniversary - Modified CGM and I was using Sweet Almond Oil back then but I switched to Grapeseed Oil after finishing that bottle.

Purchase yours here: Craftology Grapeseed Oil 


I've bought countless scalp massagers and the one I like the most was this one from Bremod. Apart from the price, its bristles are a slightly firm so I can really feel them gliding through my scalp. 

Purchase yours here: Bremod Scalp Massager

SKIN CARE:


Posted in 2023: B.Lab Matcha Hydrating Relief Cream Review

This is actually an appreciation for the Lazada Kbeauty Online Shop, Youn Family. It is my go-store and I always visit their page/shop to go window shopping or look for items on sale. When the Matcha Hydrating Cream went on sale last year, I bought a tube and saw that there was an announcement that the best reviewer for the said product will win P 4,000.00 in store credit/ store voucher. I posted and fortunately won the prize. This transaction, so far, is my biggest skin care haul and I only paid P 18.52 for it.

So there, if you're looking for legit Korean skin care products, check them out. Shipped from South Korea so it takes time to arrive.

Purchase yours here: Youn Family


As much as I like Anessa's Skincare Milk, the price of that sunscreen is beyond my budget for sunscreens. I only bought my first two bottles because I chanced upon a B1T1 deal before our Boracay - Cebu Trip in 2022. When I saw this being sold, I decided to try it out and I liked it. It has a slight white cast though and only 35 SPF but it's perfect for daily use especially if you have dry or normal skin. 

Purchase yours here: Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Mild Gel



While I love my Korean sunscreens especially
Isntree's Onion Fresh Sun Fluid, they can get pretty expensive. One of the best sunscreens for our weather and for those with oily skin that won't go over your budget is Omi. This product is powdery matte without whitecast. It literally looks like there's nothing on your face. This is what I replaced my Anessa Gold with. It's not only good for days when you are more "active" but also for everyday use.

Review Posted in May 2024:  Peripera Ink Velvet Nude #23 and #31 ( Nude Brew Collection)

Purchase yours here: Peripera Ink Velvet


HYGIENE:


Aveeno is a game changer not only for those with eczema but also for those with recurring dry patches on the arm like me. The effectivity comes with a hefty price because this is definitely not affordable. I often check Kenvue's store too see whether there's a sale going on so I am usually able to buy the 354 ML for around P 350.00/bottle. The screenshot of the transaction shows the orange variant but I was able to purchase the orange and green variants before. Not too bad. 

If you have eczema, green or blue variants should be better for you.

Purchased - 5 times (2 orange, 1 lavender, 2 green)

Purchase yours here: Kenvue


Once I went electric, I can never go back to manual toothbrushes. Unless I go on trips probably just for the reason that I don't want to bring it with me. I bought this on a whim last 6.6 and it's actually the best online purchase so far. Oral hygiene is important.  I am a daily tea drinker and a cup isn't enough. One time I went to the dentist for cleaning and she told me that my teeth were stained. I immediately thought tea as the culprit but I noticed my teeth aren't as stained as how they were before this Electric Toothbrush and Colgate's Whitening Toothpaste. 

Purchase yours here: Oral B Pro 500 

For this one you can wait for a double digit sale since they are sold for almost half their regular price.


One of best deodorant in the market today, I tell you. Okay, fine. This one's a big claim especially since I haven't used other deodorant aside from dove for the past decade but as far as being a dove girl, out of all the deodorants they sold, this particular variant is the best for me. 

Purchased - 3 times 

Purchase yours here: Dove Serum


TRAVEL ESSENTIALS



One of the best purchases especially for someone like me who takes way tooooo much photos and videos of just about anything. Another 256 GB on top of the existent 256 GB memory of my phone. 

Purchase yours here: Sandisk Ultra 256 GB

Anyway, the last time I bought a hard drive was in 2020, I'll most likely get a new one before the year ends because I only have 100 GB left out of my 1 TB hard drive. 


Very stable. I was apprehensive in buying this because I thought 1k+ was expensive but I also didn't want to risk it with cheap tripods so I waited for this to be on sale. Mine fell down twice because of the wind but my phone was not damaged - not a scratch. The bluetooth clicker is also easy to operate and connect with my phone.

Purchase yours here: Small Rig Tripod and Monopod


Concluding this for now. I'll post more soon... not that you were asking for it. hahaaha.


How about you?
What are your favorite double digit or payday sale finds?

My summer fighters! Isntree's Onion Fresh Fluid Sun Cream and Onion Fresh Light Sunstick.

I have always been intrigued ever since Isntree launched this line mainly because all the products have Muan Onions Extract as their main ingredient. It is kinda random and something I wouldn't expect to find in my skincare products. Anyway, I've got several products from the line which I have been using for the past several days. My verdict? I love this line - Onion Newpair Line is an instant HG especially for those with oily and troubled skin.




22 Grams

*Purple solid stick form
*Handy and Travel Friendly
*Recommended for oily combination skin types
*Velvet finish and doesn't pill

I love the fuss-free application and the non-greasy formulation of this sunstick. It provides soothing and blemish care with Muan red onion extract, niacinamide and acetyl glucosamine. 

I've tried using this during a beach trip. It was humid and hot but at the end of the day, I didn't burn despite being more exposed to sunlight than usual. I reapplied quite a few times that afternoon but it didn't make my skin feel congested and sticky. Zinc PCA helps in preventing excessive oil production so this has good oil control.

Purchase yours here: Onion Fresh Light Sunstick


50 ML
SPF 50 PA++++

*chemical sunscreen
* lightweight and fluid texture that is easily absorbed by the skin
* no whitecast
* not sticky 
* not oily

My favorite out of all the products from this line.

This is infused with Muan Red Onion Extract that is rich in germanium and minerals and provides blemish care while delivering nourishment and soothing benefits. I'm really happy that Isntree has launched a line that is more suited for me. Having tried a lot of sunscreens already, I've got to say that this one is a love at first try. If I were to rate it, it's not just a 10/10 but a 100/10. It's summer and it's scorching so I'd understand if my skin becomes oilier than usual, but it didn't. I don't use blotting papers as frequent as I did before using this. Also, sweating isn't a problem because my eyes never stung as well. Last but not the least, it's easily absorbed by my skin like it just vanishes upon spreading, if you know what I mean.


Purchase yours here: Onion Fresh Fluid Sun Cream

This was my pandemic lippie. haha.

None of my lippies were mask-proof so when the pandemic struck and we had to wear face mask all the time, I gave away my lipsticks. Anyway, I think I bought this in 2022 and this was all I used until I got Maybelline Cushion Mattes in 2023.

Purchase yours here: Etude House Fixing Tint



Very easy to apply using the applicator. I don't put a lot of product on my lips to achieve a natural look.

Normally, it's weightless but really mask proof and transfer proof as long as you let it try before putting your mask on.  I love everything about this product, my only problem was on some days, it feels too drying than normal. I wasn't able to find out why though. haha. My lips are probably not too hydrated on some days. 


Color: Warm Autumn Deep

Shade name: #06 Soft Walnut


It's pigmented but light on the lips. I don't think this product leaves a stain but that's okay. Also, even if mask proof, I always have to reapply after eating.

Peripera Ink Velvet Nude #23 and #31


 These two are my newest lippies that I've been using a lot these past weeks. These are also my first two products from the Korean brand, Peripera. 

They have an Official Online Store in the blue app so I was assured that I got original tubes.

Purchase yours here: Peripera's Lazmall


Last October, I posted about Maybelline's Creamy Matte. Eventually, I liked how Chestnut on Point looked on me the most so I looked for Nude Lippies. It's that phase again for MLBB and Nudes for me. Cycle lang naman. HAHA. 

Lipstick Swatch: Maybelline Sensational Cushion Matte in CM06, CM07, CM10, and CM17

Out of these four shades, I've already given Lips on Pulse away. 


I've been using these two since I got them during the 2.2 sale. The shades were a blind buy for me because even if there are swatches available online, the shades usually look different when I apply them. Color theory? 

*The applicator is easy to work with.
*The formula isn't matte but velvet/satin
 *It's not drying and not sticky. 


The reason why I decided to get this despite having my Chestnut on Point is because this isn't matte. The last thing I'd want is for my lips to look parched since winter weather is more drying. 


This is not transfer proof but it's long lasting. I only have to reapply after I eat or drink. 


Peripera's #23 - Nutty Nude


This is my favorite MLBB shade at the moment. One of the very few nudes that worked for me.

I just don't like to wear it outdoors on bright sunlight since this makes my lips look pale but in shaded outdoors, I love how this looks. 

Peripera Nutty Nude

I have pale lips and I have warm toned skin. I'm not sure how this will look like on pigmented lips.

Peripera Nutty Nude

This is how it looks on me when indoor.

Peripera's #31 Wine Nude


This is one of the newer shades from their Nude Brew Collection.

This leaves a slight stain, creamy as well, and more vivid compared to #23. 

Peripera's #31 Wine Nude

This is the only lippie I used for my entire stay in Japan and I brought three with me. I needed a bit time to get used to the shade because my intial reaction was the shade didn't suit me but now, I use it more often than not. 

Peripera's #31 Wine Nude

This turned out lighter on me than I expected though but still, a muted red? Anyway, I learned to love this on me despite my inability to describe the shade. 😩

Peripera's #31 Wine Nude

 With My Echiro Oda signed Zoro plastic bag from a Mugiwara Store in Tenjin, Fukuoka. 

Rosy cheeks care of Fukuoka's gale that made my skin windburnt. 



Just be careful in purchasing yours 'cause there are a lot of counterfeit products. 

They have an Official Online Store in the blue app so I was assured that I got original tubes.

ELMT's Frameless Pure Vitamin C 20% Element
30 ML
PAO:3 Months Gifted


It is a waterless serum in an airless pump bottle. It comes in a small green box with a pamphlet inside explaining more about the product and its usage. The formula captures the potency of 20% ascorbic acid but is certified to be safe even for those with sensitive skin.

I've always been apprehensive in using products with Vitamin C not only because it oxidize fast but also because there's a lot of information about the Vitamin C as a skincare ingredient that I am confused on where to start. There's enough information about it in the packaging that thoroughly explains, so I didn't feel the need to research and confuse myself more.


How I used this:

After cleansing at night, I applied a pump of the product to my damp skin.


HAHAHA. Sana may filter na lang sa totoong buhay. 


Experience:

The formula is only activated upon contact with the skin. It's probably the reason why you'd notice that it warms up upon application. It actually has a relaxing warm temperature, making it feel like I'm giving myself a quick facial massage. I used this every three days in the beginning, then every other day when I felt that my skin was getting used to it. It is a thick lotion that seems to turn into oil upon spreading on my face. The texture is a bit tacky and sticky at first, and it takes a while before it gets absorbed, but I have no problem with it because I use it at night anyway.

I don't have a lot of dark spots in my face, so I didn't notice if it lightened or what. However, it has been busy these past few days but I noticed that my skin didn't look that haggard when I wake up in the morning - I feel that this product helped in making my face look brighter, smoother, and more radiant. Also, I love that this has become my entire night routine especially during those nights when I'm too tired to actually think about which ones to apply.

Do not forget to apply your sunscreen during the day.


I you have a sensitive skin, just be careful in using this because it's potent and make sure to patch test. I think for those with active acne or those with super sensitive skin, you may experience a tingling sensation.
