i have a feeling this will be a long, ass dragging post if i don't segregate my hits and misses for june. so eto muna.. products that didn't work FOR ME.
kojie-san skin lightening soap
i've been hearing good things about this. plus, ang hot ng gosiengfiao sisters sa advertisements ng kojie-san.. i just had to try it out.
the packaging is really neat. i love it being white, black and red. cheap too. (cheapest they can come is 50 Php as it says on the box. hehe..) this however is not my original purchase. i bought the bigger one. ewan ko kung bakit pero this kojie-san comes in 2 a pack except the other kojie-san (dream white) i think.. wala kong nakitang 2 in a pack nito ever. so anyway, the soap inside is packed in a clear plastic. sealed. i was impressed actually. maganda packaging nya. it's bright orange though.. yun naman yung mejo ayoko sa kanya. siguro kse it reminds me of those harsh papaya soap na nabibili jan sa tabi-tabi. hehe.. sama. pero seryoso.
i took a tour guide job before kse and i was exposed to so much sunlight. that was the tannest i ever got before so mejo nag panic ako. i had our helper buy me papaya soap from our neighbor.. 10 pesos lang ata yon non. and when i used it, my gehd! ang tapang nya. i had to wash it agad kasi after a few minutes it stings.. tapos yung after feeling nya sa mukha na parang banat na banat yung balat ko, i didn't like it. so i told my mom and she made me use the commercial papaya soap brands instead. i digress. hehe..
kojie-san didn't have the stinging feel. it lathers well. mejo acid-y ang amoy nya. but then again, kojic acid nga sya so that explains the scent. hehe.. ayon.
sadly though, after a few days of using the soap nagalit na yung allergy ko : ( . i have a bad allergy at the back of my arms. it usually reacts depending on the soap that i am using. for the longest time i have been using baby soap to keep it tamed pero kse.. i really wanted to try this kojie-san. i'm blaming it on aloida gosiengfiao's ad.
lols. kidding. pero you have to admit, hot diba? ; )
anyway.. needless to say, after a few days i stopped using it na. i wasn't able to see if it made any difference on my skin. : ( so kung effective ba to na whitening soap, i have no say on that. but like i said, i heard good things about this product. also, my partner liked it so i guess if you don't have skin allergies, wala naman magiging prublema. but if you have sensitive skin, you might wanna be careful using it. ayon.
NEXT!
avon foot works triple duty cream
plain packaging. but it's a foot lotion, how funky can a foot lotion's packaging go diba? hehe.. i like it though. parang sinasabi nya na "papakinisin ko ang paa mo, seryoso ko." hehe.. it smells like peppermint. light lang yung scent. i like the peppermint smell though. it reminds me of nail it is, the local nail lounge that i used to go to. anywaaaaayyy..
it's inexpensive. i think i got it for a hundred or hundred fifty.. not sure. the lotion is white. applies well. hindi sticky and it doesn't leave a greasy feeling. you just have to let it dry for a while. ayon.. okay naman sya.
hindi naman talaga miss to actually. i like it.. it does the job pero i wish it's more moisturizing.. dry kasi talaga yung sides ng paa ko e. ayon. so baka sakin lang kulang. still, it's a good buy. i would recommend it. o anu pa inaantay nyo? call your avon lady now! hehe..
LAST NA.
black beauty shampoo with conditioner
following the mane n tail reputation of thickening hair.. that's the only reason i bought this. i have thin hair kse.. runs in the family. haaaiii.. anyway, i did try mane n tail dati. wala naman difference. ang mahal pa nya. this was suggested to me by a friend. it's a cheaper option so i tried it. i decided to get the shampoo with conditioner because i thought i could get the best of both worlds in one..
sadly this is a real miss. the shampoo is a transparent green.. lathers well.. pero amoy dog soap. hehe.. nung una naisip ko, pwede naman tiisin. tska baka masapawan ng amoy ng conditioner ko.. pero hindi ako talaga comfortable sa amoy nya. wala naman ako prublema sa amoy ng dog soap. pero ayoko ng ganong amoy sa ulo ko. hindi ako sanay. hehe.. and i just feel like it's too strong for my hair.. ndi ko sya type. so after a week of using it, ayoko na. good thing i got the small bottle.. pero sana yung sachet nalang ang binili ko. ayon.. peace.
there you go. my long overdue reviews for the month of june. :D
