Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Lotion

Is more actually better? Hada Labo's Gokujyun Premium Lotion boasts five different sizes of hyaluronic acid in a gold bottle. But is it worth a gold medal?

A lot of women seem to think so, especially now that hyaluronic acid has become such a trendy commodity. I however, think differently...

Nivea Extra White Serum Antiperspirant

Revisiting Nivea's Extra White Serum, the Armpit Edition! Because while I do like the body lotion, I was ambivalent about this when it first came out years ago.

So in the theme of retrying old things this year, I tried Nivea's Extra White Serum Antiperspirant for the second time.

Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Serum

Alright, first time in a while I'm featuring something on the (for me) pricier end of the spectrum! But here's something I've been bringing with me while I'm out and about: Peter Thomas Roth's Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Serum.

But the question is, should you buy it?

Caronia Touch of Beige

You'd think I'd have enough of neutral nails, but I picked up another because I found that I'd already made a visible dent on my last nude nail polish and that I travelled out of town without it. I searched the supermarket shelves and found a neutral similar to Chic's Mod Beige. So how does Caronia's Touch of Beige fare?

First of all, even if I bought it for a trip, I wasn't able to use it on said trip because it took me a while to open the bottle. I curse my weak wrists often, but I'm pretty glad no one's tried to open it.

EB Advance Eye Brow Kit

Honestly, I bought this brow kit because I needed a mirror, and in the debate between a one use mirror, a face product I was unlikely to use, and a brow kit... this one won.

At Php 220 for a brow kit, I was getting a lot of bang for my buck with the EB Advance Eye Brow Kit.

Olay Magnemask Infusion Rejuvenating Sheet Mask

Actually bought this mask because I forgot to pack an essence on a short trip and I heard this was chock full of essence.

Did the Olay Magnemask Infusion Rejuvenating Sheet Mask do well or disappoint?

Travel Empties: Natur Shampoo and Conditioner

Not to be confused with a retail brand, Natur's Shampoo and Conditioner came from an unnamed hotel close to home. Since I used my own products during that time, I decided to grab a set for use farther from home.

Fortunately? On a trip much farther than that, I got a chance to use it and used up the Conditioner of the set. I will probably finish this shampoo since it would be wasteful not to use it. However, like most hotel toiletries, I find this rather bland.

Both shampoo and conditioner smell like citrus-apple, toeing the line between pleasant and car air freshener (for me, it smells more like the latter on application, and more apple-y  on my hair). Both are very light and you will need to use a lot per application.

I use a leave in conditioner after since I feel that this isn't enough.

Altogether a pretty bland, pretty standard hotel amenity.

Kat Von D Tattoo Liner

Thank you C, for letting me try this Kat Von D Tattoo Liner!

Got this a while back but only remembered to post because of all the hullabaloo about it.

Espoleur Mascara from Daiso in Purple

Monkey see, monkey do. I've been watching a Chinese drama where the female lead sports blue mascara. And seeing a positive YT review of Daiso's Espoleur Mascara, I decided to buy this baby in purple.

Boy, was that a bad idea.

Celeteque Acne Solutions Acne Spot Corrector Gel

OMG I am so glad I found you again.

I posted some time ago about a Snoe spot treatment I was using because I lost my Celeteque one and didn't want to repurchase the same thing because I lost it.

Whisper Always radiant with Smart Foam

Alright guys, I have a new favorite sanitary pad in rotation and it is the Always Radiant with Smart Foam.

I've seen a lot of mixed reviews about it, but I really enjoy using this.

The Shelf: January 2019

Very boring. Just for recording purposes.

Thoughts below.

Lindsay All-in One Energizing Gold Modeling Mask

The internet said that this existed years ago, but I've only tried it this month. I had been dying to try a rubber mask and this caught my eye because it was on the cheaper side. I'd like to say around P65, but it could have been P110 >_< I bought it a long while ago so I can't find the receipt...

Either way, it seemed a much better deal than the popular Dr. Jart ones.
