I am a very practical shopper. I became specially more frugal when I got a job. I was never a hoarder but Purederm makeup wipes changed everything. Haha I always felt that I had to buy one pack every time I drop by at Watsons because it might soon be at the clearance section or worst, phased out. For 119 pesos I get 60 sheets of cleansing wipes with the most relaxing scents cucumber, lavender or aloe vera. I was lucky to get two different variants in one pack. Cucumber is definitely my favorite. It does not dry out fast like most of the cleansing wipes I have tried. :) It also feels so gentle on the skin and it never caused me any break out. Love is an understatement to describe how I feel about this product. This has become a skin care staple. Thanks to SM Beautybox for introducing this wonderful product to me. I highly recommend this to all of my readers.
What product/s are you fond of hoarding?
Godbless

If there is one beauty crime that I would never want to commit, that would be sleeping with makeup on. Most of the time, I only commute going to the office of elsewhere, so, it is evident that aside from makeup, gunk and dirt from Manila's horrible pollution also stuck to my face. Having super sensitive, my fear would always be waking up with a face filled with rashes. Thus, cleaning my face is an inevitable part of my daily routine. No matter how dead tired I am after a day's labor, I find time to clean my face. Let's start with the routine: |

I have tried using oil and water based cleanser but I always go back to Ponds Cold Cream. I have been an avid user of this cream for years. The formula is thick and very moisturizing. It does not leave an oily or greasy feel after wiping it off. It just feels like applying lotion on your face. I gently massage it around my eye area and it can remove the most stubborn makeup like waterproof mascaras, eye shadow and waterproof eyeliners very well. It does not sting nor burn my eyes. It is perfect for those with sensitive skin and I can vouch that this is very safe to use around the eye area. The smallest tub only cost less than 150 pesos. |

When I slept over at a friend's house, I brought out this cream. She curiously asked what it was for. I, then demonstrated on how I use it. She looked really amazed upon seeing that all the mascara and eye makeup slid off after massaging this cream over my eye area. haha
Then, I wipe off the Pond's Cold Cream with a makeup cleanser tissue. Before, I use a cotton ball to wipe off the Pond's Cold Cream then I discovered the wonders of makeup wipes!! Makeup wipes compared to cotton balls helps in removing the makeup easily. They are also very moisturizing and more gentle to use especially around the eye area. |

I got this makeup wipes from the SM Beauty Box. Have you heard about the SM Beauty Box? If not, then click here. Watsons carries a lot of affordable makeup wipes that will suit your budget. My favorite is from Glamworks which only costs 49 pesos for 20 wipes.
I gently press and massage the makeup tissue on my eye area to remove makeup especially mascara.Careful not to rub your area because it can cause dark circles.
Then, I pull out a clean tissue and remove the rest my face makeup. |

Afterwards, I cleanse my face with Moringa-O Herbal Facial Toner. For years, I have been an avid user of Eskinol but I decided to this Morina-O Toner a try because of the great reviews online. The Moringa O Toner is very light on the skin and feels so refreshing. Its does not leave my skin tight after use. Here is what the product claims:
- Cleansing - gently cleanses residual dirt without drying
- Oil Control

- Stimulate cell regeneration and skin renewal
- Anti-bacterial, Anti-acne - may help reduce pimples
- Moisturizing dry skin - deeply nourishes, moisturizes and smoothens dry skin

The last step is washing my face with Celeteque Brightening Facial Wash. Can you see the small holes on the tube? Thank to One, our puppy who chewed this. This is one of the best product form Celeteque that I have tried and it only cost 150 pesos. This facial wash is filled to the brim which makes it hard to squeeze on the first use. On my lazy days, I just use this and it does a great job of removing makeup even stubborn mascaras (Ohh but I have to cleanse my face twice). |
My squeaky clean face!!BF loves it when I do not have any makeup on. Does your boyfriend tell you that too?
Have a blessed day to all!!
