Hey girl!
My love for BB creams are just getting stronger. Because every BB cream that I tried, makes me love it even more. For today, let's give the spotlight to Ponds BB cream. This one that I got was a travel size version which is, at first, I thought was too little. But, it proved me that I only needed just a pea amount to keep me covered. Plus, the fact that I can carry it along with me hassle-free.
Ponds is one of the trusted brand in skincare here in The Philippines. I've been using Pond's product since I was highschool and it does not need to prove me anything. This is one of the brands that already garnered my trust. The product claims to provide effortless natural bare-faced look. It has whitening actives known to penetrate deep to lighten skin from within. It is to be use every morning after day cream.

Sanosan Anti-stretch mark cream
Net wt: 100ml
Cost: 399.75 pesos (approx:$ 8.5)
Made in Germany
Hey girl!
So, there's a new brand discovery that caters products that are helpful for moms and/or becoming moms out there. It is Sanosan. I was quite interested with the anti-stretch mark cream because I thought it will help me with my previous stretch marks. But no, I am not talking about stretch marks that a mother gets from being pregnant. Well, not yet for me. I am referring to the stretch marks that I got from excessive fats or areas that are stretch by excessive fats and causes unwanted markings. Ha, I hope you understand that. I know some of you have that too.

I know this is overdue. But hey, I just want to share why I can't keep up with blogging since mid last year. As you noticed, my productivity in reviewing and doing posts reduced. I always say that I have something need to focus on that is really important aside from the toxic days (of course!) in the hospital-setting. And, that is because of my IELTS journey to UK.
DISCLAMER: I am not already in U.K. I didn't reach all the 7 scores needed for nurses in U.K. I am pursuing another journey right now which I will also tell you later. This is just a random story to tell on my overall experience in taking UKVI IELTS.
I am a registered nurse here in the Philippines. In the past 2 years, nurses going to U.K rapidly increased. The sad truth is most nurses from the Philippines are taking every opportunity to land a decent paying job abroad. Because where to here in the Philippines? That will be saved on another blog post. If there was what the others called ''American Dream'', mine was different it was ''European Dream''. It is not about the money for me, because if that was the case, they are other countries that has a high paying rate for nurses than in U.K or any other parts of Europe. It is my dream to be able to visit European countries more than any other countries. That's it!

Céleteque DermoCosmetics CC Micro-Hydrating Powder
Shade: Classic Natural
Net wt: 10g
Cost: 930.00 pesos (approx: $18)
Hey girl!
Packaging-wise, it was bulky yes! and if you have little space in your cute tiny bag, it will be a headache to fit. But why is it so bulky? because there's a lot of magic inside. Haha! It has a good high quality mirror plus the 'grinding chamber' which I am not sure if it is really called like that. I am fascinated with the grinding thing. First timer here. I haven't tried products with the same kind. Looking at the overall quality, you know it is on top. That's why it is a little expensive than usual. I know.
8/10. It was a little expensive for a low budget, but it will be worth it for its price to try. The autogrinding technology is totally fascinating. It gives out fine powder that evens out my complexion. It might not be the best in controlling oil on my face, but atleast it keeps my skin looking healthy.
Shade: Classic Natural
Net wt: 10g
Cost: 930.00 pesos (approx: $18)
Hey girl!
I knew that they already released their cosmetic line and sadly, haven't tried it out yet. I only have sampled some skincare products from them which is the matte moisturizer, facial moisturizer, the cleansing oil which I rated as good. But hey, today is interesting because I want to share my review in this Celeteque CC cream which I found new because I haven't tried something like this before.
How Céleteque® DermoCosmeticsTM CC Micro-hydrating Powder Works:
- Hyaluronic Acid replenishes and retains moisture for long-lasting skin hydration
- Slica controls the excess oil to give a silky, soft and matte finish
- Tocopheryl Acetate (Vit E) hydrates and nourishes skin keeping it healthy.
- Oil-controlling, hydrating
Packaging-wise, it was bulky yes! and if you have little space in your cute tiny bag, it will be a headache to fit. But why is it so bulky? because there's a lot of magic inside. Haha! It has a good high quality mirror plus the 'grinding chamber' which I am not sure if it is really called like that. I am fascinated with the grinding thing. First timer here. I haven't tried products with the same kind. Looking at the overall quality, you know it is on top. That's why it is a little expensive than usual. I know.
It also includes the sponge-like puff which I think absorbs most of the product so I usually used my brush instead. I thought at first the 'Classic Natural' shade will be so light on me. But no, once it settles on the skin it neutralizes and goes with the skin tone. Yes, it is light but not too light. It is still wearable. I know the perfect shade will always be perfect, but this one is not bad.
Another thing, I was really amazed with the medium coverage. If you have minor blemishes to cover, then it can cover that all up without the need of so much concealer. I noticed with this powder that you can put it alone and you are good to go. It keeps my face moisturized, bright, and covered. I think that is the advantage of CC, you have more skin benefits than the usual powder. On the down side, it has the tendency to cake your face so don't over apply.

Cathy Doll L-Glutathione and Whitening + Pore tightening and SPF50 PA+++
Net wt: 60 ml
Cost: 299.00 pesos (approx $5.9)
Made in South Korea
Hey girl!
Oh! It is almost November already and I am trying to cope up with my backlogs from the past months. Here is my review of Cathy Doll L-Glutathione Magic Cream. My first Cathy Doll item. Looking at their line, I am really impressed with the lovely packaging of this brand. It catches every girly gal's hearts easily - including mine.
Cathy Doll is Thailand-based beauty brand with a touch of Korean. This sunscreen was particularly formulated in Korea. I was actually confused at first if it is really from Korea. I have made my own research and found out their brand was inspired by Korean beauty. The end result of Thailand beauty expertise + Korean bomb and trendy beauty technology are equalled to a promising, fun and lovely brand.

Hey girl!
Admit it, online shopping is now the second best option in buying items with less hassle. Aside from convenience and variety of options we have in online stores, it became popular hand-in-hand as the technology era arises. One of the downside we don't want to experience in shopping online was dealing with the threat of our own security by providing some of our personal information. Another thing is the burden of high shipping cost may it be locally or even so internationally. I came across an online shopping site, Gmet Trading, that provides a personalized shopping experience specifically for U.S based brands. You can now effortlessly shop online in U.S through them.

Hello weekend vibe! Just like everyone else, I look forward every weekends because this is the time when I met with my family and friends over a quick snack, dinner or picnic. I always love seeing my loved ones during their free time. Today, I would like to feature one of my favorite place in our town where to spend my weekend.

What's up? I am still tweaking some of the links here on my newly renovated blog to make it all live and lovely. Just a quick post on my recently added products on my shower essentials.

It is their Palmolive Naturals body wash white + milk and it comes with its corresponding soap alternative. Moreover, I got a new variant of Palmolive shampoo and conditioner with Aloe Vera and fruit vitamins.

Hey girl!
I ordered my box last June and finally, my first and last Saladbox came at my doorsteps yesterday. When I ordered this box, I was full of excitement because it features Benefit Cosmetics but my enthusiasm lowered as the days goes by. I waited for more than a month for this and got tired of waiting and never expects so much. But hey on a brighter side, my heart pound once again after I finally received it. My box was a special one-time offer box which is called Saladbox Lite.
What is Saladbox?
Since it is my first time with this beauty box, let me give you a brief background of it. It is the first beauty subscription box in PH. I've been doing my beauty blogging since 2013 but never tried this box before. I have read a lot of great reviews about it, but this subscription box was lost in a beauty scene for a while and make a comeback mid last year. Currently, it was rebranded and is now named as Giltbox. So technically, this will be the last Saladbox because for this month of August, they kickstart with Giltbox.

Hyperlocal connotes information oriented around a well-defined community with its primary focus directed toward the concerns of the population in that community. The term can be used as a noun in isolation or as a modifier of some other term (e.g. news).
Hyper-local advertising is certainly not a new focus- we’ve been hearing about this and directing our efforts towards creating a personal experience for consumers, for several years now. However, research continues to show that with location-based data, we now have even more information at our fingertips that will allow brands to build an even stronger connection with consumers.
Lookna is a hyperlocal advertisement search engine that allows only legit businesses to get listed on their website. This all depends on where you are and what your marketing tactics are. However, it can be the main street in your city, a specific destination, shops or homes within walking distance, a park or other public area, or even people right in your own office building. Hyperlocal is describing a small area within a larger local area. So if you are performing local marketing in your town, you might want to incorporate hyperlocal advertising in the shopping center where your business is located.
If you are attempting to advertise your local business online, regardless of the type or size, you need to participate in hyperlocal marketing. It goes beyond just local marketing and includes buzz words and targeted content for the people near you. Since you are in that area, you know these people and what they are looking for.
This can all be used to help market your business, whether you own an art gallery on the main street or a coffee shop in a busy shopping center. Not only are you trying to get customers by using hyperlocal marketing, but you are working to keep them as well. Retaining customers is a huge perk of using this type of advertising method. It’s great if you get a one-time customer, but don’t you want them to return? You already know that it is easier to keep an existing customer than it is to get a new one, so you should already be aware of the importance of customer retention.
Lookna has a Searcher account-used by anyone who is looking for a specific service or product offered by the advertisers. A Searcher account is created thru search page. Once the searcher starts communicating with the advertisers, the phone number he used will be saved in the database and will be used as his auto-created login info.
One of the main benefits of utilizing hyperlocal marketing is that you are able to provide a unique customer experience based on this specific niche market. Instead of attempting to market to a broader local area, you are making it specific as possible. You already know these customers, because they are your neighbors and your friends. This works well for marketing to such a niche community. The more specific you can get your target market, the more unique and interesting you are able to make the marketing experience.

Hey girl!
Hello August! Let's get into what we used to do: skincare product review. In this millennium, we are always hearing something matte from any beauty products. Matte is definitely one of the hit word in the beauty counter since the past year. However, I haven't heard about matte in a moisturizer, since moisturizer are tend to well of course, hydrate and moisturize while, matte is connected to being dry and less moisture/no mositure. So when I've seen this matte moisturizer samples from Celeteque, I didn't hesitate to try.

I had to research thoroughly about this before using this since it was my first to use something like this. Upon seeing tons of reviews and videos online showing their results, I knew I needed this. I got mine from a giveaway of one of the top beauty blogger here in PH, Ms. Martha. I was so glad to score one. I admit it. I don't care much about my feet unlike my routines on my face. The only pamper I could give them was a foot massage and THIS! It is time to slough off those hard skin cells on my feet. Let see what happened after 2-3 weeks of use.

Great thing, I got to have one on hand now. It was my first time to try this one. Actually, from the brand itself. It was from Korea. Beauty online sites makes it now easier to get from international brands. Being oily myself, I am so excited how it will change my face game.

They say summer is officially over because rainy season is already here. Let us went back to products that saves us last summer. By the way, these particular products will be available up until this month because it is intented as summer exclusives from Pantene. I actually don't know what is the official announcement on that but my fave sampling site, Sample Room, posted about it on their site. So, come on grab it on the major supermarkets near you or on Sample Room itself where I got mine. I think it will still come in handy for us living in a tropical country since after the rainy days, there will still be sunny days. No need to overthink on that! Lol. Going back to the products, it is especially designed to protect our hair from an intense summer heat.

Ever since I knew about BB cream, it became my miracle skin worker. It is always part of my fresh face routine. It works wonders on me knowing its all-in-one benefits. When I had a chance to grab one from Belo, I didn't think twice. Instead, I am more like an excited kiddo. I have read a lot of reviews of this BB cream and people hype how good it was. Actually, I am so fine with my Belo tinted moisturizer for a while. I thought this product and the moisturizer almost had no difference. That is when the viral comparisons came on blogsites and Youtube videos that I am currently subscribed. Although not really the same since, one is moisturizer and the other is BB cream most of the reviewers are into this BB cream. My excitement to try this one just gets higher.

It's been a while since I have a lipstick review. I actually haven't had purchase any new lippies since I am still digging into my old hoarded ones. I tried to limit myself in buying too much products these days until I got empties. Another thing, my lips aren't that cooperative since the first quarter of the year and cracking with lipsticks like crazy so, I settled on my lip tints and balm. But hey, lipsticks are lipsticks and I can't just give up on them. Fortunately, an online site beautyMNL have a lipstick sale and thought of getting something I haven't tried. It is this L'oreal Color Riche Moist Lipstick.

The Beauty Junkee just celebrated a bombastic 8th year anniversary with all her lovely readers and luckily, I was there. To tell you honestly, I haven't been on much social online events, unlike some people I met on a handful events I've been. So, it always feels new to me to be in a room full of people unknown to me. But in the end, it was always, ALWAYS worth it! <3 This is the first of its kind event I am in. My first meet and greet to someone I look up in this beauty blogging world I am tackling.

Hey girl!
Where have you gone this summer? I know its getting late to post our sunwarriors because wet months are coming. I felt sorry for myself on my lazy days and nights. We are getting into the last quarter of the month and I can't missed to post my summer diaries. Hello to the newest addition of my sunwarriors from Belo, I am talking about Belo BB cream and BB body cream. I've seen the BB cream since last yearbut I haven't had a chance to score one so when I got the BB body cream, I know they gotta be a perfect combo. As expected, the sun protection is still one of the best (at least for me) and Belo sunscreens are one of my favorite.

Before finally purchasing one box, I've watched and read some reviews carefully. First of all, I don't expect much on this one for its price. Its been months now since I did my rebonding at home.

I was once an adorable flower girl and for sure, as little as these mini darlings knew that they are too adorable. What makes them more interesting is the lovely as the bride dresses that they wore that make them more stand out. Here are my top 10 picks from the Millybridal UK, a dress design and manufacturing company that specializes in wedding dresses. I have seen their collection of ball gown wedding dresses and was overwhelmed with them. Not only that, they are offering cheap wedding dresses too.

How was your first duty working as a nurse? I am not referring to the duty hours we have spent during our nursing curriculum in the university where we have our buddies in a group. I am talking about the actual days of working as a newcomer in a progressive medical center. I wish I wrote this sooner here so I can still grasp the full details of what is like to be in that situation. I am working as a full-time staff nurse for quite sometime now, and as the years past, I can see the same situations that I, myself, deal as a newbie in the hospital. That is why I wrote this for you to know that you are not alone in a new chapter you are entering.

Hey girl!
Turn your face cream into a powder magic. That is SkinWhite face cream! It is a go-to cream with a powder finish. It instantly brightens up the skin and gives a radiant-looking face. It is the evolutionized version of our baby powder but of course, much better. You can touch-up on the go without powder fall outs. It is perfect for daily use. It has powerwhitening formula that attacks melanin production such as blocking UV rays from entering innermost layer of the skin,suppresing melanin production and preventing release of melanin to uppermost layer of the skin to prevent further skin darkening. Let's take a closer look!

Zenutrients Lavender All Around Spahhnitizer
Net wt: 50 mL (full size)
Cost: 140 pesos (approx:2.8$)
Hey girl!
Mini-spa moments can be brought everywhere with you using this all-around spahhnitizer. It is overflowing with goodness in one bottle. I thought it was a clever idea to made such this "SPAHHNITIZER". I am not sure if it was an original idea, but I have never tried this kind of formulation before. Zenutrients never fail to amaze me with their amazing formulation of organic products. By the way, as a medical professional, sanitizing is a basic activity that we do that is why I am used to carry an alcohol or sanitizer with me all the time. Of all the antiseptic solution I already used, this one is special. Sanitizing isn't as relaxing and mood-changing as this before. Yes!

Warning:
This post is for women only. Have you heard about Amez Bio Herbal sanitary
pads? I bet you haven't, especially if you are residing in the Philippines.
This sanitary napkin is only readily available in Malaysia but people can also
purchase it online on their website. If it wouldn't be expensive to ship these
products all the way from Malaysia, I would love to buy more of these. Amez was generous enough
to sent me a set of their sanitary pads including day and night pads and
their pantyliners. Unfortunately, the original photos intented for this post was corrupted. Presently, I ran out of stock of the day pads that is why it wasn't included in my recent photos, Gladly, I borrowed some pictures on Amez care FB page.
It's been
almost a year since my period doesn't bother me much. I usually have it for
only 3 to 5 days maximum. The abdominal
cramps are also minimal, mostly on my first day. Before, I
need to take pain medication to ease the cramps. But now, the pain was much
more tolerable than ever before. All that I am concerned was my comfort and
confidence during my period. Sanitary napkin play an important role in our red
days. It should lessen the hassle we are
already experiencing and promote a more comfortable vibe like it is just an
extra ordinary day for us women.

This will be my very first R.N.Notes. It took me so long to start this series of posts because I actually don't know how to begin writing this journey. I would like to tell a story on how I started my life as a nurse by profession.
Just like many other highschool graduates, I am so confused of what I really want to pursue in college. I know in my heart that I wanted to study a course inclined with arts, like Multimedia arts and Interior Designing. At the same time, my love to explore the world and travel also made me think to take up Tourism or Multilingual course. These courses still lingers on my mind that someday I wanted to pursue because it was my first love and initially what I really wanted in life. I never thought of taking up nursing, although I heard a lot about it because of the career opportunities abroad. Many students in the time that I graduated took up nursing because of the peer pressure and greener pasteur ahead of us. I never knew that these shallow reasons brought me to a greater purpose in life.

When you got a bright eyes, you should take it as an advantage. They say we can speak through our eyes and why not make someone obey with your pleasing eyes. Ha! That's kinda statement. One of my top 5 make-up essential is mascara. It is true that one should make the most of their asset. In my case, it is my eyes. It is easy for me to love any mascara that I own because they all compliment with my beautiful eyes. Lol! Kidding aside, well, ahem! I have such lovely, obedient lashes to start with and all I have to do is to swipe that mascara to make the magic happen.

Hey girl!
The love month is getting closer. Date and prom nights are coming. Most of the ladies are having a hard time to decide what to wear on their special day. I, myself, can still clearly remember the struggle I had during my prom days. I have no idea what dress will suit me because I rarely wear dresses and it makes me feel uncomfortable. At least, I have survived my awkward days. Let's just talk about it some other time. Thank goodness, online shops made it easier to browse and find inspiration on different dresses that caters all women's needs. My recent online shop discovery for dresses was Okdress. They have all kinds of lovely dresses for every special occasion like weddings, cocktails and prom.
I had fun browsing through their wide selection of gowns. If I had a chance to attend my prom again, here are my top picks for lace, vintage and sexy prom and evening dresses. By the way, they are running a flash sale on most of their stunning dresses right now. So better check them out.

Hey girl!
I have a new feature post here on my blog. I called it R.N. Notes. I haven't been talking about my profession as a nurse because it is an entirely different world from all the glam up beauty-related topics that I am writing. But then, I realized that there are actually more interesting true to life stories that are relatable in a life of a nurse. As of writing, I've been working in a hospital-based setting for about 3 years and counting and surely, I have a lot of real life scenarios that I want to share. This will be the other side of the my personal life. I've been wanting to write something personal that are relatable but I just couldn't find a topic that I will be comfortable talking about and here it is, finally!
I will try to share my R.N Notes at least twice a week on this blog and I hope we could share more real life experiences and conversation in the future. Shout out to my fellow R.N's! Yay.
Let's talk again on my next blog.
Yes, YOU lovely gorgeous.
Love yourself because you are beautiful.
Hugs and Kisses,
Princess Mikee

Hey girl!
Ageing shouldn't define us women. Are you one of the many who still lied or denied their age? You should not have if you start giving your skin the love it needs. You might say that I can easily say this because I am at my young adult age, but surely procastinating doesn't really help in skincare. What we have started today, we will reap in the future. That is how it works in our skin. There is no instant youthful magic potion (tell me if you knew one. wink!), only patience and consistency on your skicare regimen. I am lucky to have tried some of the anti-ageing products from Olay since last year and just like me, a lot of women approved its anto-ageing benefits.
HERE ARE MY REGENERIST PRODUCTS
