Dry skin is more than just an inconvenience that comes with these cold winter months. For some of us, it’s the unpleasant reality of everyday life.

There are many paths to take in combatting the woes of dry skin, but after exhausting those options or noticing the harsh ingredients in even the highest praised products…it can be a little disheartening.

That’s where hemp swoops in to put your worries to rest.

What can CBD hemp skincare do for me?

Believed to be one of the very first plants ever cultivated, hemp is now used to make thousands of products; from clothing to skin care creams, and everything in-between. Hemp is part of the cannabis family but don’t run away just yet! It’s considered a cousin to marijuana and falls under different rules. Hemp is completely, utterly, totally non-psychotropic. When sourced properly, it can be used in supplements and skin care products without any legality issues.

Now, it’s important to understand that there are two types of hemp oil, and sometimes they are not very clearly distinguished in products.
The first is hemp seed oil.


As you can probably deduce, it’s an oil pressed from hemp seeds. Hemp seed oil and hemp seeds themselves are commonly found in the grocery store. What do you get from hemp seed oil? Amazing nutrition values, including omega-3, omega-6, trace minerals, and vitamins. In short, it’s very healthy for the body on the inside and out.
Next, let’s delve into hemp extract.

This oil is extracted from the whole hemp plant, EXCEPT the seeds. The whole plant extract does not contain omegas as hemp seed oil does, but it holds incredible values all on its own. The rare compounds found in hemp extract are cannabinoids and include Cannabidiol (CBD). Simply put, you will not find anything like CBD hemp extract in mainstream products. A lot of time and care goes into properly (and legally) sourcing this oil.

What’s in hemp extract oil that makes it such a great natural dry skin remedy? It contains a natural blend of compounds known as phytocannabinoids and terpenes. If you research those compounds, you’ll be met with incredible research and anecdotes. We don’t make medical claims, so if you’re interested in reading about that aspect, you’ll have to research it on your own. But it’s no secret; the information is at your fingertips.
Why choose CBD hemp as your natural remedy for dry skin?

Using a hemp oil product in your skin care routine is a natural way to improve your skin. No more worrying if the ingredients are counter-productively bad for your skin…mother nature knows what she’s doing. The terpenes in hemp extract are often used in aromatherapy, so even the smell of these products is good for your wellbeing.


Nothing compares to the robust hydrating and nutritional properties of hemp seed oil and hemp extract. If you’re looking to turn to a natural skin care route, hemp is the way to go. There’s bold scientific and anecdotal proof.
What is the best hemp oil for dry skin?

Last time I bought a new lip tint which was recommended to me by a friend. It's SUGAR DOLLS LIP & CHEEK TINT IN TUTTI FRUITY and I bought it for 65 pesos only. It comes with a 10 mL bottle. It has a cute font and design on its packaging and I love it!


Talking about the bottle's roller, it has a clear glass material which effectively rolls when you apply it on your lips or cheeks. I love it because as what I've noticed, there are some tint rollers which will work and roll on the first week but then will stop rolling the following weeks. So I give a thumbs up to this!

Here's the bottle's roller:


The shade which I bought was color orange. I chose this one because when applied on the skin, it will give a peachy-look and will give a natural effect. The tint itself is also organic and FDA approved; proven safe to use. It also has a sweet scent and pleasant fruity flavor.

This is the TUTTI FRUITY shade:


What I love with this tint is that you can easily apply it on your lips and cheeks. It is pigmented, blendable and long lasting; it will last on your cheeks and lips for a couple of hours. The color is also vibrant, so you'll look more attractive when you use it. With that, I would give two thumbs up for its quality.

What I least like about this tint is that it gives me little chapped lips, but then, it doesn't affect the overall look on the lips.

I would give 4.8 stars for this tint. Aside from its vibrant color effect, it will not cost you much. I recommend this tint to those tint lovers out there! You'll surely love its smell.

I hope this review helps. Till next review sessions!

Always,
Fiorella Amorette


Disclaimer: This is not a sponsored post. I used my own money in buying the product. Plus we have different preferences, so what's good for me may be good or not good to you.
Recently, I purchased an aloe vera gel online due to the fact that my skin looks dehydrated, and aloe vera, as what experts say, tends to hydrate the skin and moisturize it as well. I heard a lot of good reviews about this product, and so I gave it a try. 

Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel is what I'm talking about; a product made in Korea. We all know that Koreans are famous for their alluring skin, so why not try their product right? I bought this one at Beauty MNL for Php 245.00 only. It comes in a big container so sure thing the product could last long.

"Enriched with natural aloe vera! This soothing gel with California aloe vera can be used to mildly moisturize various parts of the body such as the face, arms, legs, and hair."

I personally love the idea on their container that they added two-way protection for the product; the container cap itself plus another plastic cover which protects the product. 

This is how the gel looks like:

The product comes with a transparent gel.

Since it's still a matter of days that I'm using this product, I would just give my first impression about this one and compare it to my experience on the aloe vera gel I purchased before.

I was outstanding with this Nature Republic Aloe Vera Gel compared to the aloe vera gel from The Face Shop which I used before. The Face Shop Aloe Vera Gel, if you try to apply it on your face, the gel will still be gel, but this Nature Republic Aloe Vera Gel, it may come in a gel, but when you start applying it on your face or any part of your body, it somehow turns watery. With that, you'll not take too long for the product to be absorbed in your skin. It also smells so good and a refreshing feeling comes along which you'd surely love. 

What I also love about this gel is its hydrating effect. I'm using this one as a night mask, and when I wake up a hydrated skin embarks my day. I'm also using it as a moisturizer. Honestly, I could flaunt a bare face for just applying it since it makes my skin shiny or should I say moisturize. 

Another thing that I love with this product is that it's organic and no harsh chemicals were added.

When I try to compare this to the aloe vera gel I used before, I surely love this. So far, this aloe vera gel amused me. Perhaps, I'll just give my further reviews about this product once it turns one month since I use this. So keep tuning! I'll update you soonest.

You may purchase this online or at Nature Republic store.

So that's just my first impression of the product. I hope this post helps. Thank you so much for reading!

I'm a Korean product enthusiast and trying out Beauty products is indeed an amazing feeling for me. I'm always on the lookout for affordable yet high-quality Products in the market until I found this brand-- IWhite Korea. It has a variety of products available but for this review, let's focus on this one; WHITE KOREA BB CREAM.

The IWhite Korea BB Holic BB Cream comes in two shades: Beige and Light. I bought the sachet pack in 3 mL, for only 25 pesos. But if you want the tube one, you may also buy it for about Php 200-- still at an affordable price. 

"The IWhite Korea BB. Holic is a multi-tasking BB cream that provides several makeups and skincare benefits. It is perfect for everyday use as it is infused with over 10 plant extracts to ensure that your skin is taken care of while looking refreshingly beautiful."

Here's a swatch of the shades:

If you have a morena skin, then Beige shade is best for you. If you have fair skin, Light shade would be a thumbs up.

The cream is not sticky and it is watery. It's like a baby sister of CC cream. And based on my experience, it's so light-weight when you apply it on your face and will give you an instant natural Korean skin look which is a very good thing-- glossy face in other words. It smells so good as well. So far, this BB cream didn't disappoint me. This is indeed perfect for a day-to-day basis. It's also affordable which is a great thing right?

IWhite Korea BB Holic is indeed a must-have cream. It's proof that a quality and effective beauty product can be budget-friendly too.

I would rate it 5/5 stars. But hopefully, they will add SPF for protection against the sun. So much for that, I highly recommend this to everyone who wants to have a light-weight BB cream and have that glossy skin look to use daily. But if you want to have a heavy BB cream, then this is not best for you.

I hope this review helps. Thank you so much for reading. Till next review sessions!

Disclaimer: This is not a sponsored post. My money is used to buying the product. Every insight expressed is based on my experience. Howbeit, we have different skin type, so the result on me, may or may not be the same for you.
I have a combination type of skin yet there are times where oiliness dominated my face especially when I'm doing a lot of moving. Glowing skin is great yet oily skin doesn't look awesome. Plus when I use tissues to wipe off those oils, they can't even absorb the oils on my face-- still looking oily. I find the oiliness a hassle especially that I need to face students in teaching. I need something to instantly clean-up my oily face.

While I was roaming around Watsons, FINESS OIL CONTROL SHEET captured my eyes. Well, not just because of its cute packaging, but because of its affordable price among all the oil control sheets available there. The cute Finess Oil Control Sheet comes in two variants: Finess Oil Control Sheet with Printed Design and Finess Green Tea Scent Oil Control Sheet. I bought each at Php 39.00. There are 100 sheets inside each pack.

"Finess Oil Control Sheet effectively removes dirt and oil from skin, leaving your face feeling fresh and shine-free. It's handy and convenient to bring anywhere for instant clean-ups of face anytime. It's ideal for cleaning eyeglasses and camera lens as well."

FINESS OIL CONTROL SHEET WITH PRINTED DESIGN

At first, I admit that the printed design which I expected to be printed on the sheet is like what the front packaging was printed. Yet I was wrong, for it comes with a Mayee bear prints. Well, they're indeed cuties. Plus it smells good as well.

Here's the packaging and the sample sheet of this variant:



FINESS GREEN TEA SCENT OIL CONTROL SHEET

This variant smells like Green Tea indeed. And yes, the sheet's color is green. If you're a tea lover, well, you'll surely love this one.

Here's the packaging and the sample sheet of this variant:



The moment of truth, here's the before and after of the sheets after blotting it on my oily face:



Based on my experience while using this sheet, it indeed absorb oils from my face. I never thought that this affordable oil control sheet is a promising one; leaving my face matte and clean. Hassle-free on oily skin for this sheet could really help. High quality oil control sheet at a budget-friendly price. 

I would rate this sheet 5/5 stars. And I highly recommend this to those who has an oily face and wants instant clean up for oils.

You can buy this product at Watsons.

I hope this review helps. Till next review sessions!

Disclaimer: This is not a sponsored post and I used my money in buying the product. We have different skin type and what I expressed in this post is based on my experience as a person having combination type of skin. So the result on me may or may not be the same to you.
I have been a busy-body earlier this year due to a lot of work to make at school. I feel so stressed and tired at the end of every day. I admit, I'm having a hard time taking care of myself these days. Plus my facial skin looks dull and haggard. 

It's when I tried ST. IVES Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub. I bought this one since I badly need to exfoliate my skin atleast twice a week. I want to remove the dead skin to have a skin that glows. I bought this one online with a price of Php 220.00. 


This is how the scrub looks like:

"Deeply exfoliates & removes impurities for glowing skin"
It has natural walnut powder shell which helps in exfoliating the skin.

I heard a lot about this product. It has a lot of good reviews that I tried it now to see the result for myself. Fortunately, as I'm using this product twice a week, I could really see the nice results. It somehow removes my dead skin and makes my skin glow. This scrub cleans my pores as well oh-so-nicely! Plus I could feel the squicky clean feeling after using it. I haven't also encountered breakouts and unpleasant experiences while using the product. It indeed deeply exfoliates my skin that even my impurities just like the blackheads on my nose has lessened. And the smell... heavenly indeed! 

What I also love with this product is that it's organic and no harsh chemicals were added. It's also paraben free. A multi-awarded product which could give a smooth and soft feeling to the skin.

As far as my face is concerned, I love the effect of this product on my skin. I love how it removes gradually my impurities. 

If I were to rate this scrub, I would give 4.9/5 stars. And I highly recommend this scrub to those who wants to deeply exfoliate their skin. 

This product is available at Watsons store and leading stores nationwide. It's also available online.

Just a piece of advice, don't overdo on scrubbing the product on the face to avoid problems.

I hope this review helps. Thank you so much for reading. Till next review sessions!
