I AM OTAY

WHY USE WHITE+++ TOOTHFAIRY TEETH WHITENER WASH???

HOW TO USE:

So based from my personal experience after using it for 5 days straight, I didn't see any visible result just yet. Is it because my teeth are so yellow that it needs longer product usage? Or the product is not effective that it didn't work on me? Share with me your experiences guys if you tried this product already.

Merry Christmas! XoXo

According to Livestrong.com, when choosing make up and skin care products, here are six ingredients that we should avoid:

1. Oxybenzone
Look for It in: Sunscreens, moisturizers, lip gloss.
Why Avoid It: It’s a potential hormone disruptor.
Here is a list of safer sunscreens WITHOUT oxybenzone.

2. Phthalates
Look for It in: Soaps, shampoos, hair sprays, nail polish (avoid polish containing dibutyl phthalate), products containing “fragrance.”
Why Avoid It: According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), “Some types of phthalates have affected the reproductive system of laboratory animals.” CDC researchers found measurable levels of many phthalate metabolites in the urine of the general U.S. population.

The EWG writes, “A growing number of studies indicate that this chemical family damages the male reproductive system.” EWG advises that pregnant women should avoid nail polish containing dibutyl phthalate , and that everyone should avoid products with "fragrance" indicating a chemical mixture that may contain phthalates.

3. Petroleum distillates
Look for It in: Mascaras. Here are some mascaras containing petroleum distillates.
Why Avoid It: According to the EWG, these petroleum-extracted ingredients may cause contact dermatitis and are often contaminated with cancer-causing impurities. They are produced in oil refineries at the same time as automobile fuel, heating oil and chemical feedstocks.

4. Formaldehyde
Look for It in: Nail polish, eyelash adhesive, hair dyes and keratin hair straightening formulas.
Why Avoid It: In 2004, formaldehyde was declared to be a carcinogen to humans by the International Agency on Research on Cancer (IARC). According to EWG, formaldehyde (also an asthmagen, neurotoxicant and developmental toxicant) was once mixed into many personal care products as antiseptic. This use has declined, but some hair straighteners (and keratin treatments) are based on formaldehyde's hair-stiffening action and release substantial amounts of the chemical.

5. Toluene
Look for It in: Nail polish.
Why Avoid It: Toluene is used to help nail polish glide on more smoothly, but according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), “Chronic inhalation exposure of humans to toluene causes irritation of the upper respiratory tract and eyes, sore throat, dizziness, and headache. Human studies have reported developmental effects, such as CNS dysfunction, attention deficits, and minor craniofacial and limb anomalies, in the children of pregnant women exposed to high levels of toluene or mixed solvents by inhalation.”

6. Fragrance
Look for It in: All products
Why Avoid It: According to The Breast Cancer Fund, synthetic fragrances used in cosmetics can have as many as 100 ingredients --including hormone-disrupting phthalates, synthetic musks, and ethylene oxide. ”Fragrance” is usually a chemical cocktail, often containing individual chemicals associated with allergic reactions and hormone disruption. Some fragrance chemicals have not been assessed for safety. Until all fragrance ingredients are disclosed on the label, consumers cannot know what is in a particular fragrance.

I am the kind of person who's afraid to try whitening products on my face. As I've told you before, I am a Ponds whitening cream user and nothing more. But sometimes I get tempted to try other creams whenever I see girls with very flawless complexion.

Bleaching creams are very popular these days. Too many sellers came up with different products with different formulation and ingredients. Most of them contains hydroquinone which a big no no for me. That's why I always check the ingredients before I put anything onto my face. Our main concern and purpose is to take care of our skin so harmful ingredients should be avoided at all times.

So while I was scrolling my fb page, I saw this Bossa Spotlight Lightening Cream and I got curious. I researched about the formulation and luckily, I found no harmful chemicals on the product so I decided to give it a try. Here's my review...

Money won’t save itself if you keep telling yourself to start saving it tomorrow. Let’s begin today!

Finding the right skincare products can be frustrating, I've been a Ponds user for a very long time, from facial wash to toners and creams. It has always been my basic skincare brand since I discovered kaartehan. Trying a new product scares me but somehow a girl should explore...

While I was in Watsons last month, I saw this traveler's kit and I thought this might work for me. Celeteque is a trusted and known brand so I did not hesitate to pick it on the counter. The packaging is small and can serve as a tester for me. This is more economical than buying the full size because I still don't know what to expect from the product.

Facial Wash:
Using this makes me feel like I have a healthy and baby soft skin. Its effect is the same as my good old ponds pearl cleansing gel so this might be a good replacement.

Setting sprays are meant to be the last step in your makeup routine. When lightly applied on top of your completed look, the makeup is supposed to stay in place all day. They claim to keep your powders, concealers, and even eyeshadows from absorbing into your skin or melting off.

BB Cushion foundations are very popular nowadays. It took me too long to purchase one because of the price. Luckily, Maybelline came up with the most affordable compared to the other brands though it's still pricey. Essentially, cushions are soaked in BB creams inside a compact paired with an amazing applicator puff. Price: P749

HD Trucco is a newly opened salon in Santolan Pasig just along the highway where I pass by everyday. I got intrigued because the place looks very sosyal from the outside. It's not overcrowded and has a cafe beside it. The blogger in me wants to try their service and decided to go in for the sake of this review.


I love pampering myself, and have my nails done for at least once a month. It's been a long while since I was looking for a decent salon near my house, with a good ambiance and a good service. True enough, this new place is the answer to my long quest. I will definitely go back!

By the way, they have on-going promo until December so better go visit them now.
