Review: Milk Peel Cream Mask

Mom would always said that we have to take our mil if we want strong bones and good skin. Good thing I listened to her because I am now paying the result of it. Since then, I've been a fan of milk , especially if it's something about skin care products. Just like Althea's newest product, the Milk Peel Cream Mask. 

The Milk Peel Cream Mask is a refreshing peel mask that gently strips away dead skin cells. It has an active ingredient which are AHA & BHA which helps peel off dead skin cells for smoother skin.

PACKAGING- I like the simplicity of the packaging with its minimalist color. I loved it more because it's in a pump container and who doesn't love pumps. My only issue though is that it dispenses a very little amount every time I tried to pump it.  

SCENT - It has a powdery scent and being pregnant, that kind of scent is pretty doable for me. I honestly dislike strong scents now even when I'm on my second trimester. 

PRICE - You can purchase this Milk Peel Cream Mask for P490.00 at Althea website You can also avail of the free shipping for a limited time. Just visit their website for more details.

EFFECT - It moisturizes and refreshes the skin because it's packed with vitamins for a healthy complexion. It also remove dead skin cells, clogged sebum and impurities from the skin. 

Yay for me! (｡◕‿  ◕｡) 

• It's in a pump container
• I like that it cleanses my skin gently
• I also like the bubble type/ whipped cream feeling on my face
• Great for all skin types. 
• Doesn't leave my skin dry.

Nay! (｡◕︵◕｡)

• I dislike that there's only a little amount when I try to dispense the product from the container. 
• Can be a little messy when removing the product off! 

Price: P490.00

Bought from: Althea

Size: 50 ml.

Overall, I like this product because it's my option when I like very gentle cleaning on my face without sacrificing its performance. I tried different masks and of different kind and I must say that this one cleans very well.

Review: Althea's Petal Velvet Sunaway

There's another new addition to the Althea exclusive family, it's the Petal Velvet Sunaway. It's a sunscreen with SPF50 and claims to help control sebum while maintaining skin moisture. 

It has Damask rose extract which is use to moisturize and soothe the skin. While the Micro Particle Technology creates a Micro Powder Barrier. This barrier is described to absorb sebum and excess oil from the skin to give a light and velvety finish.

PACKAGING- It's in a simple baby pink box which has Hangul for info and instructions. I hope it has English translation though but no worries since you can view more info on the Althea website. 

SCENT - For a pregnant mom like me, I think this has a strong rose scent which isn't really to my liking. But I can manage with it.  

PRICE - You can purchase the Petal Velvet at Althea website for only P480 a piece but if you wish to get the Petal Velvet Set, it's only for P621. It comes with Petal Velvet Powder of your choice which is a perfect combo of the two. You can also avail of the free shipping for a limited time. Just visit Althea website for details.

EFFECT - The skin feels smoother and no white casts detected after use. It also helps to control excess oil on the skin and it feels very light even after a long day out in the sun. The Petal Velvet Sunaway can also be used if you would like a no-makeup look as it somehow covers flaws on the skin.

Yay for me! (｡◕‿  ◕｡) 

• Has high SPF
• No white cast
• Absorbed by the skin easily
• Great for all skin types. 
• Doesn't leave the skin dry.

Nay! (｡◕︵◕｡)

• I sometimes can't take the strong scent. i'm pregnant so most mothers will know that this is part of motherhood, right? :)

Price: P480/piece - P621/set

Bought from: Althea

Size: 55 ml.

To be honest, this is not love at first sight but I liked it over time. Maybe it's just me and my pregnant mood swings at times. But overall, I would recommend this to anyone who's looking for a good sunscreen.

Few days before Christmas and I am still not buying any Christmas gifts for friends and families.

Limited edition products tend to catch my attention because I know it might not be released again. Aside from the lovely packaging, I want to try a Laneige palette.

How To Spend Your Weekends Wisely

There are days in our lives that are really tedious, especially weekends – no work and no school. So, what do you usually do during idle times?  I bet you want to kill the boredom, more so, make the most out of your break. It can get quite mind-boggling to figure out what to do, but we’ve rounded up some ideas on how you can spend your weekend after all the seemingly unending hectic week of school or work.

Binge watch your favorite TV series

Haven’t finished that Korea drama you’re watching for two weeks? Well, weekends provide you all the time in the world to catch up and binge watch your favorite TV series. However, watching too much can cause eye strains and back pains, so don’t forget to have breaks in between.

Hold a garage sale

De-clutter your closet and earn extra cash by selling stuff you don’t use anymore. More than just an

activity to bond with your friends, you can even do it for a good cause by raising funds for a foundation.

Go to the beach

Hit the beach with your squad and try surfing or take a swimming lesson. Have fun while under the sun but don’t forget to protect your skin and even your eyes. Make sure to put on a sunscreen and bring with you a quintessential summer accessory such as polarized sunglasses.

Take driving lessons

Weekends are the perfect time to learn something new! Sign up for a driving lesson and start learning

how to drive.

Mediate yourself through yoga

Take your usual exercise routine a notch by joining a yoga class. Not just it improves your mind and

body, but it also reduces stress and increases your concentration. This workout is something new and

different but is totally worth it to try!

Learn how to cook

How many times have you promised yourself that you'll give cooking lessons a shot? There has a lot of cooking schools offering short courses for cooking, so unlock this new skill and start preparing your own meal.

Make the most of your weekend by spending it wisely and productively to feel fresh and pleasant to get back to work or school.
