Half dinished another article before realizing I cannot post about it due to reasons. Hayz. Instead, here is my alternative to those expensive acne patches!

DIY Lip Scrub
Ya know, there was a time in my life where I really wanted those bullet type exfoliating lip scrubs (around the time matte liquid lips became en vogue) but they seemed so expensive just for the price of convenience of having it in stick form. And I wasn't a big fan of matte lips anyway so I shelved that thought. But as liquid lips became the norm, I found my lips getting chappier (there was a shortish period where I stopped balming it up because I am very very lazy) until I decided to get a lip scrub. And got sticker shock again. I mean, P200-400 for an edible lip scrub? NO WAY!
I can make my own without spending any extra money, thank you. Here's how:

Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert 2018
Is just ok.
A mostly strong supporting cast (hello pharisees :D) but balanced with a lukewarm Mary Magdalene and a weak Herod and Jesus. Seriously, Jesus.
Everytime I look at you I don't understand... if you are having an asthma attack. Or if you understand your character that well. Poor Judas.
Staging isn't bad either but pretty rushed and static with regards to the leads. No flow, no interaction with the main character...
You are still much better of watching the 1973 or 2000 version. I haven't seen 2012 so I can't compare.

Sensodyne Repair & Protect Toothpaste (First Look)
GUYS, I AM SO EXCITED OVER TOOTHPASTE I HAVEN'T EVEN TRIED THAT I AM IN CAPSLOCK!
Forget about salt, baking soda and charcoal. They clean your teeth... but the best thing has always been fluoride with a little something extra for sensitive teeth... until this decade.

Sun 2018
Life has been busy lately so I wasn't able to stop by Watsons' sun event. Which is a good thing, in a way, since I still have 3 body blocks good for daily use.
These are, from left to right: Nivea Extra White Whitening Body Serum, Silka Premium Whitening Body Lotion, and Vaseline Healthy White SPF 30 Serum. All three are decent for everyday use, but I would NOT bring these to the beach. All of them are SPF 30 and above but not one is labelled as a true Sunblock. They do vastly differ in terms of scent and texture.

Mia Care Acne Patches
No pictures, because I accidentally finished both day and night patches without taking any.
The mia care patches come in day and night versions both as singles and in combinations. I bought the day and night as a combination in watsons and it costed around P220 (I think?) For 18 patches. The singles cost P160 for 12.
Day patches are very thin and you can put it on when going out, as long as you aren't under acrutiny and you change it as soon as the patch gets soaked. You have to change this often as 1. Gross 2. The patch doesn't absorb as much as its night counterpart.
Night patches are thicker with good sticking power. They absorb more, but are very visible.
With how accessible these are I will probably by them again. The day patches are cosmetically acceptable and the night patches stick well. I wish though that they had good sizing options.
The Nexcare patches I tried before seems a bit better with pus absorption and it has 2 sizes, though the smaller ones sometimes move at night. It is also harder to find.
I will either try the CosRx option or try to math out which patches are cheaper in the future!

The Face Shop Rice Ceramide Moisturizing Toner
Nearly empty! It has lasted quite a while and it will probably last me through the month. You can't really see it but only around fifth is lefth of the toner.
If you want yourself some quick, cheap hydration, you might want to take a look at this!

Short post because.... I have sadly lost the bottle! But I really liked Cloud Cosmetics Pore Refresher Spray Mist.

Balanga, Bataan
If you haven't been to Bataan, then you should! I, myself, regret not being able to spend more than a night in Bataan (details later), but I would definitely go back again if it were possible.

The Face Shop Designing Eyebrow Pencil
After I first bought this product, I thought it was just ok since while it was packaged well, it isn't a lot of product at 0.3g compared to eyebrow pencils.
Boy was I wrong.

Mumuso Perfume Hand Cream in Avocado
The full name of this product is really long: Mumuso Natural Avocado Soothing Pefume Hand Cream Avocado. This was given to me, as the like was really popular last Christmas because it's cheap, cute and very useful.
Unfortunately, as I didn't go that route, I don't know how much this costs, but I know it's very affordable, probably a bit less than P100 for a duo or trio.
