With its powerful formula, this face wash effortlessly removes impurities, leaving your skin feeling irresistibly smooth, soft, and undeniably clean. Don't miss out on this game-changing addition to your beauty arsenal—your skin will thank you!
Unfortunately, the efficacy of this vitamin C face wash seems to be rather short-lived. This product promises to deliver a refreshing and rejuvenating experience, leaving your skin feeling clean and tightened. Initially, it imparts a light and fresh sensation, giving you that coveted glow. However, as time goes on, I've noticed that my skin tends to become dry and lackluster, especially when I perspire excessively.
As a skin enthusiast, I would suggest following these simple steps to ensure the perfect measurement. Begin by carefully squeezing the required quantity of your desired ingredient onto the palm of your hand. Remember, precision is key! Next, add a small amount of water, just enough to create the desired consistency. By following these easy instructions, you'll be well on your way to beauty success!
This incredible product boasts the ability to produce an ample amount of luxurious lather, ensuring complete coverage for the entire face. The Garnier Bright Complete Vitamin C Facewash—don't get me wrong, this facewash does have its fair share of benefits. However, it's important to take a closer look at its ingredient list, as there seems to be cause for concern. One particular ingredient that has caught my attention is parabens. These chemicals, known for their preservative properties, have been a topic of debate in the skincare world. While they may contribute to the product's effectiveness in the short term, it's worth noting that parabens have been associated with potential harm to our precious skin. As skincare enthusiasts, we all strive to find products that not only deliver results but also prioritize the health and well-being of our skin. With that in mind, it's crucial to be aware of the ingredients we are exposing our skin.
The Garnier Bright Complete Vitamin C facewash may offer some positive effects, but the presence of parabens raises concerns that cannot be overlooked. Remember, knowledge is power when it comes to making informed decisions about our skincare routine. So, let's continue to explore and educate ourselves on the ingredients that help keep our skin healthy.
Do I recommend this product?
The Garnier Bright Vitamin C Face Wash is a fantastic option for those seeking an affordable skincare product that delivers effective cleansing. If you're tired of dealing with a lackluster, oily complexion, this face wash is worth considering. Not only does it effectively remove impurities, but it also revitalizes your skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. With regular use, you'll notice a subtle improvement in the brightness and clarity of your complexion. Overall, the Garnier Bright Vitamin C Face Wash is a solid choice for anyone in search of a budget-friendly option that delivers noticeable results. Now, let's talk about something important. It's worth mentioning that this particular product does not promise to give you fair skin, nor does it claim to do so. Additionally, it does not take care of your skin's moisturizing needs.
So if you want to use this product for your skin care, I hope you all have an amazing collection of moisturizers adorning your shelves.

We are, unfortunately, what we eat, so before you go crazy with detoxifying skin care products after a month of nonstop holiday indulgence, try cutting back on your diet a bit. Your skin will reward you if you make an effort to make your dishes look more colorful than neutral beige.
I find that drinking juice made from fruits and vegetables is the most effective way for me to cleanse my body. However, because I have GERD, tomatoes are not on my list of acceptable food to eat.
In addition, it's important to replenish by drinking eight glasses of water.
The vibrations smooth out wrinkles and tighten sagging skin, which are both signs of aging, and promote healthy, radiant skin. The massager acupuncture pen features three distinct types of massage heads, including a dome, a spheroidal, and a node type. These massage heads were created to be utilized in various locations on the body to achieve a variety of therapeutic goals.
When the holiday celebrations are over, how do you like to relax and pamper your skin? Do share!

My love affair with my face began at age 20, while I was working as a Customer Representative at RCPI-Bayantel, I am consciously looking myself in the mirror if I look fantastically sophisticated dealing with customers and constantly in awe of my beauty while working.
It was perhaps predestined that I got to work at SM Health & Beauty now Watsons Davao, that I was surrounded by woman essentials, like makeup, skincare, health care, etc.. All of them very much in tune with wonders of health & beauty. And every time I saw a woman looking for what they wanted, especially in our beauty section, I caught myself gaping at their amazing routine.
Somehow, I figured out what I wanted when I turned 30. I need to take good care of my skin, particularly my face. Though I know that my relationship with my skin will be more than just plain fascination, because I know as times goes by I will age, and skin care will become my saviour.
In my college years, I chose skin care products that are cheap and I don't mind if it is not dermatologist tested. Soon, I found myself learning much about skin care products. It was only then that I had a clearer vision of what product suite me well.
The year 2016 marked my formal foray into the world as a skin care junkie, I joined events and I do product reviews of different products for skin—not a beauty guru but as a Beauty Blogger. It all started when my colleagues from blogging invited me to join them to review a skin care product. The endeavour then seemed fleeting, but it was what paved the way for me to know where my passion really was. Product Reviews captivated me in ways I never believed it would. Yes, it is unplanned, because my passion is just to write my personal experiences, my personal activities with my family and children. It is like a daily journal before then I realized what I really wanted to do. And after shifting my niche from personal to beauty, clarity came, and it pointed me to where I was destined to be. But, still I'm into personal writing in general just to balance my life.
Somehow, product reviews saved me (financially). It saved me because products are given to me for free! And some companies pay me in exchange for a review of their products (honestly). In life, there are unexpected instances that one can be very grateful for and that includes the chain of events that took me to where I am today, as a Product Reviewer. After a series of events, I received emails coming from different countries, and I knew that I was finally starting my career.
Embracing my career as a Product Reviewer/Blogger, I relied only on my passion and my personal experience with the product. Honestly, I started with no formal training on how to review products, that time there no such thing as YouTube or Google to have a free tutorial online. I only have my instinct and desire to pursue my work. Thank God that in my journey reviewing different products it became a significant part of my life, because I have to share my thoughts and experiences, and that I was embracing every part of it.
I've begun journeying myself in a place that give me comfort. And since that time, my addiction of skin care products did not stop me.
My Skin Care Obsession
My skin care routine is triggered again, when I got a message from Noe Petel last month (March) to review Alpha White.
Days from now, I'm going to celebrate my 45th birthday, I was determined to figure out a solution to my skin woes before the big day and so I grab the opportunity.
A #7DayChallenge using Alpha White Renewal Set (you can watch my video at my Instagram @glamourholicmomofficial). A skin care routine progress, Day and Night using only Alpha White. I had to suppress my gag reflex. The idea was to have a #nofilter and glossy skin aka Korean glass skin effect. I really don't have problems with my face, my skin is good — though I always chocked it up to good genes (thanks to my parents). If you have a skin care ritual, I also have that — my faithful cleansing, my near fanatic hygiene (just visit my IG).
My curiosity with the product seep in days later. I've read positive reviews and everyone using it turns out, everyone seems to have something to say about the renewal set. A lot of what's being said is so encouraging, especially if you have Acne problems (visit Alpha White Davao Facebook page).
It's Dermatologist-tested, beside what I've experienced, the itchiness and skin sensation, despite that the logic behind the "tiis ganda" it does make sense to me. There's a lot of users who claim it's saved their skin and I attest to that. For 2-3 days you will experience itching, burning sensation and skin micro-peeling. Its purpose is to get all the dead skin and protect your skin from invading bacteria – the bacteria that cause skin acne and other skin conditions.
In my 5th to 7th day, burning sensation and itchiness are gone. But micro-peeling is still there (even up to now) as I continue using the Alpha White Renewal Set. But I'm not using the orange soap now, I'm using their Dual White Advanced.
What I liked about the Dual White Advanced, it has an excellent ingredient to make your skin stop from aging. Yes, you read it right, it feels that your having your botox right at your own home. It reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles plus it moisturizes skin (face and body).

After a month of using Alpha White Renewal Set and Dual White Advanced, I noticed that things were changing for the better. My existing blemishes were lighten and got a glossy botox effect skin that look smooth and shiny. I also noticed that my whiteheads and blackheads (white bumpiness under my skin) or what we called clogged pores are gradually gone. My skin was looking as good as I had seen it in years.
After my #7thDayChallenge with the Alpha White Renewal Set and the Dual White Advanced, I therefore conclude that the answer for many skincare woes, especially those who had ACNE is to use ALPHA WHITE RENEWAL SET. And for those who have a not so problematic skin problem, to be clear, my skin is not perfect and it never will be. But this product make my skin significantly better that it has been in years. A light routine skin care is good for me, and by using their DUAL WHITE ADVANCED, just washing, cleansing and moisturising, no more obsessive face-washing. My conclusion, Alpha White is the right product for my morning and evening routine.
MY THOUGHTS
Looking back, the long, grueling days I have as a Product Reviewer were all worth the knowledge I acquired in my everyday experience with different skin care products. Those products I've used from the past has been part of my skin care daily routine and the experiences allowed me to become a Beauty Blogger.
Sharing the stories of my past is relevant right now, because there are a lot of Beauty Bloggers today that are starting as a Product Reviewer but don't have the right direction where to start. It is my only way to share my experiences and become an intrument to all the newbies out there that wanted to be a Product Reviewer. So as long you have that confidence, persistence you will survive in this kind of niche—just be honest, don't take your platform as a revenge, but be an inspiration to others.
And by adding here what I've learned in reviewing products, I want you, to see how Alpha White Products give you the freedom to choose what's the best skin care product to use for you skin care problems.

Wearing sunscreen is one of the Beauty Rule amongst women, especially those in their mid 30s. Sunscreen is the best anti-aging product, applying SUNBLOCK or SUNSCREEN before makeup is essential especially during summer. Not giving your complexion the proper care it deserves is something you should never do! Always remember that your face is your CANVAS!
It's a must! Yes, you need to protect your skin from the sun's harsh rays, whether indoor or outdoor, you badly need it. Because it can cause dullness, dryness, uneven skin tone, and wrinkles. And take note, even its gloomy day or rainy days, no clouds can shield you from UVA/UVB rays.
Thou Shall Not Skip Putting On Sunscreen
Skincare is life, it's not a chore and don't do it by choice. It's a necessity, a life essential that everyone should do, aside from eating and breathing. You must do anything and everything that is good for your precious skin, that's why we need to really practice Healthy Lifestyle.
I saw this post from Jojie Alcantara's Instagram post.
And was curious with the product she's holding, and so excited when she told me that I was chosen to review Poly Beauty Tinted Sunscreen. THANK YOU SO MUCH for giving me the opportunity to review a locally made product from Davao City. #supportlocal
Your Face Is Your Canvas
This is exactly the reason why I'm into face skin care. I'm in my mid 40's and let's accept the fact that out skin needs more protection and more care, because it changes every day. But let me tell you this: even if our skin doesn't look that young anymore, we've got to make our own look, it's like a signature look doesn't have to be on trend—it just has to be healthy and glowing self!

| Plantitas & Plantitos you need this to protect you from the rays of the sun while nurturing your plant babies. |
Why TINTED SUNSCREEN? It's handy, and it has that full coverage while providing SPF protection. It's way differ with the makeup with SPF because it just shield your skin from the sun but not enough SPF to protect your skin from UVA/UVB.
POLY BEAUTY TINTED SUNSCREEN gives you a tinted sunscreen that Dermatologists recommended, it has SPF 40++ to ensure you that your tinted sunscreen will guard against UVA/UVB rays. That even if the product formula is tinted, you still want it to act as a strong sun protector.
Like any other skin care product the formulation of Tinted Sunscreen matters. And what I like about Poly Beauty, it's good for any skin type. So, whether you're on the dry side, oily or ance-prone, Poly will be your best bet!
I've read from Project Vanity, that to get the right recommended amount of sunscreen is to measure it "approximately two milligrams of sunscreen per square centimeter of skin" or use the 2-finger method. In Poly's case I only apply 1-finger method, because even if you only use the 1-finger method it will give you already the full coverage of your face.
See the cat scratch on my face? Poly Beauty Tinted Sunscreen concealed it. After 8 hours, my skin is still glowing and the scratch is barely seen.
If you want to rely solely on tinted sunscreen, Poly Beauty Tinted Sunscreen work best for being wearable even at 1-finger amount used. It's like your wearing a 3-in-1 makeup: concealer, foundation, and sunblock. Pigmentation and redness is properly covered. If you're not satisfied, well you can use the 2-finger method.
It's not greasy and goopy, thanks to a seaminglessly blending of tone and shades that feels fantastic on skin.
Some tinted suncreen need to reapply after two hours, especially after swimming or sweating, but in my case I haven't reapply. Still, I got that glowing skin after 8 hours!
If your not convince with my review, better try Poly Beauty Tinted Sunscreen NOW! Below is the details on how to order or visit their Facebook or Instagram: @Poly.Cosmetics
