Never mind the price--- Physiogel has got to be on your kikay kit!
I totally regret buying the Olay Regenerist line. I already had some kind of a premonition, but then I was so determined to buy Olay Regenerist to even care that time. It was only a few days after I started using Regenerist and noticing that my face had actually flared up compared to when I was using Olay Total Effects. I started staring at the receipt stapled on the Watson's bag showing how much I shelled out for the serum and day/night cream and had a glimpse on the Physiogel booklet inside it. I had no idea what it was. I just got hold of it while scanning the shelves at Watson's then tossed it together with my purchases. Out of desperation, I started reading it. I knew I had to quit Regenerist, at least for a while, and I just didn't know what to replace it with. I was seriously considering on going back to Olay Total Effects, but I didn't want to splurge again and gamble on the results. I was actually hoping for a better (and hopefully cheaper) alternative. Physiogel initially made me think it was some kind of hype just like what other beauty products do. But after seeing "GlaxoSmithKline" on the packaging, I realized it was something different. GlaxoSmithKline is uberly popular in the medical field so knowing it endorses a beauty product, it made me want to trust that product--- Physiogel. So there I was again. Searching. Researching. Deciding. I finally made up my mind to purchase Physiogel! Lucky enough, my research showed that it now offers trial sachets. Like I said, it really doesn't feel good buying another pricey cosmetic product after my Regenerist fail. Though I had high hopes for it, the price still scared me. Now fast forward to my newly bought Physiogel sachets (cream, cleanser, lotion)... One use and I noticed how nourished my face felt like. Yes, they all seemed greasy but somehow in a good way. It really felt like I was feeding my skin all the goodies. It didn't matter whether where to apply them as they're all gentle enough for any part of the body. All, especially the cream, calmed my chest and back rashes which have been taking me years to cure. In no more than a week (and after a lot of successful research), I decided to purchase the Physiogel AI Lotion. Not that I had any choices! The AI cream version was sold out at the nearest Watson so I was forced to buy the lotion. To me, it was no problem at all. I just thought that if worst comes to worst, I still have the AI cream as a last resort. But true to its promise, Physiogel AI lotion continued to impress me. After less than another week, I decided to buy the AI cream from another Watson's branch (Farmers Market, Cubao). Here are some of the benefits I noticed since I started using Physiogel: - After a single use, my dark spots lightened. - My skin tone evened out. - Red spots were calmed. - My super-duper oily face became matte. - It's so gentle that dermatologist prescribe it to babies. *Note: I can confidently say that all gave me a noticeable, if not visible, result starting from the regular lotion. I must say though that AI cream gave the most benefit. On the other hand, AI lotion is still my favorite because it really felt nourishing and it gave me a more dewy look than the cream. As much as I would like to apply it all over my body though, I have to restrain myself. I don't want to run out of it. And even though I desperately want to hoard on all of these products, the price still holds me back. If they had been any cheaper, I'd definitely stock up on these amazing Physiogel products--- all of them!!!
Pretty cousin, Denise, from the queen city of the south, Cebu, came over to Manila and we just couldn't let the opportunity pass us by. I've been aiming to finally make use of the clothes I've collected over the past years. Being a thrift shopper who's totally obsessed with clothes, I've collected piles and piles of them which I barely even wear nor plan to wear, ever. Since I finally got a model, the next thing to do is to prepare the clothes and accessories, the camera, and the cameraman (not me!). Click READ MORE below to see how it went. :) This dress has got to be my favorite among those I asked Denise to wear. I got this very cheap that I don't even remember how much. It just got some loose stitches on the right ribbon, but nothing I can't fix. It's really a good steal! One look and I knew I like it and it's definitely much more wearable than the others I bought. Given a perfect occasion, I'd absolutely wear this! For this look, we just hand-curled Denise's hair, borrowed sissy's shoes and voila! The picture below is from Instagram. Never mind the color----It looks perfectly identical to my dress!!! Happy. :) ................................................................................................................................................................

We were supposed to have another sunset dinner cruise at Manila Bay, but due to the unpredictable September weather, we just opted to dine at Harbour View. We initially wanted to see a night view of the Manila Bay, but since we wanted to experience Manila Ocean Park's Musical Fountain Show at 6:30 PM we had to have an early dinner. I was really hoping the sky would clear up just so we could at least witness the famous Manila Bay sunset while dining. But the weather stayed gloomy all throughout the day and we just had to kiss the sunset away and focus on our food. Harbor view is just a stone throw away from Manila Ocean Park. Actually, they're beside each other. It took us a couple of minutes more to the entrance of MOP since it's located at the other side. HARBOR VIEW

I'm sure it's not just the designer in me talking. Even the two boys I was with agreed that the interior of Buffet 101 in MOA was really fabulous. This is an all-you-can-eat (and drink) buffet. It opens from 5:30 PM onwards. You may start feasting from opening till closing. Wow! For only P950, the place prides itself on having a 5-star-hotel-like buffet in an affordable price. It was really awesome. So awesome that after 2 hours of munching, we gave up! It was all worth it! Buffet101 International Cuisine
