Review | Moringa-O2 Malunggay Herbal Moisturizing Lotion

Fell in love with Moringa-O2 Malunggay Herbal Moisturizing Lotion! After ONE use, I can say that it is staying true to its packaging - it helps nourish and moisturize dry/sensitive skin (guilty as charged) - smoothens and softens (my hands have never felt smoother!) The skin renewal and anti-aging part, we'll see after a couple of weeks, but I am positive it will work wonders as well. Moringa-O2 Malunggay Herbal Moisturizing Lotion smells surprisingly wonderful - I was half expecting to smell like food with the product having Malunggay and all, instead I have this clean and welcoming fragrance on my hands and fore arms. Nice! Applying it was a breeze too - it was easy to smooth on, it was not at all sticky, and it is so light the only proof of application is my yummy scent and ultra smooth hands. I am really happy I got a chance to try it on! Moringa-O2 Malunggay Herbal Moisturing Lotion is going to be a recurring item on my shopping list. --- To find out more about the product, check out Moringa-O2's facebook page here.

Review | Cure Natural Aqua Gel

I wouldn't normally gush over a product, but Cure Natural Aqua Gel is... "WOW"! Cure Natural Aqua Gel is an exfoliant that helps remove dead skin and dirt. You may even opt to use it on other parts of your body (I plan to :D!). Exfoliants are known to be a bit harsh, so I was surprised to find that Cure was not. I was expecting it to sting, but as I was rubbing it on my face, I didn't feel a thing. And after rinsing off the white particles (dead skin, dirt) my face felt much smoother, cleaner, and softer! That's just after ONE application! You may follow up the exfoliation with your daily skin care routine. The plus is that after you've exfoliated, your lotion, moisturizer, serum, and what-not will work more effectively. You don't have to use a whole lot if you're only exfoliating your face (pea size is ok). Plus, they recommend that you use it only TWICE (2x) a week to give your skin a chance to breathe and regenerate. Cure Natural Aqua Gel? Definitely a product worth gushing over. WOW!!! --- Find out more about Cure Natural Aqua Gel by checking out their local Facebook page here!

The SM Store | They Really Do Have It All

I love shopping at SM, particularly at SM Southmall which is a stones throw away from where I live. Especially now that it has been redesigned to enhance our shopping experience. It has everything, and more! The more being a less stressful means of shopping. It has become leisurely to the point that shopping isn't just shopping - it's an experience. Window shopping is fun at SM - for different reasons sometimes according to the season. During "tag-init" I enjoy air-conditioned store-hopping with my daughter, or having movie dates with the hubby at the cinema, or just lounging in our favorite food places while availing of the free wifi. When "tag-lamig" comes around, we still have our food-dates and movie-dates, but most of the time we keep toasty at the coffee houses. Their sales, seasonal displays and events are a sight to behold as well. My mall-mates know the shops I'm sure to visit. When at the Department Store, they often find me lurking around the shoe and bag sections. I was delighted to find that a recent purchase had such functional packaging! (see attached photo). This chic and affordable pair was purchased at SM Harrison Plaza on a whim - and I do _not_ regret the purchase. My Parisian wedges suits both my casual and business outfits, are quite comfy, and make my feet look pretty (not an easy feat! heehee) That's another thing I love about The SM Store. It is a shopper-friendly mall designed not only for form but for function as well. For more fashion do's, check out The SM Store's facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/TheSMStore
