Review: Beauty Bakery Skin Perfecting Underarm Scrub

For my first post this year, I will be talking about the newest product I tried - the Beauty Bakery Skin Perfecting Underarm Scrub. Well, this isn't really new in the market but I have just discovered it and recently got one for myself. I learned about it through BeautyMNL where I also ordered mine.

I have been using this underarm underarm armor for two weeks now and I'm excited to share you my thoughts about this.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

An underarm exfoliator that keeps the pits clean, fresh, and bright.

Contains crushed apricot seeds for mild exfoliation; infused with coconut butter that smoothens the underarm; has natural papain and tea tree extract to whiten the armpit; lightens uneven pigmentation; diminishes underarm odor; enriched with the anti-inflammatory properties of lavender oil and coconut oil; prevents post-blemish scarring caused by plucking and shaving

Review: Be Organic Cocoa Butter Diaper Cream

Every mama out there knows how important it is to have a reliable diaper rash cream. From the day the baby is born until the next couple or so years of his/her life, they'd be using diapers, be it disposable or cloth, everyday. Lucky are those moms whose children mastered potty training earlier. As for me, I've been trying to potty train my son but we still get accidents because he tends to forget where to pee especially when he's busy playing. I have no choice but to have him wear diapers during bedtime and when we go out.

Over the course of two years, we have tried a few diaper rash creams with Dermablend Zinc Oxide as the most favorite one. While we're okay with Dermablend, I'm always drawn to organic products so I decided to try Human Heart Nature Natural Nappy Cream. We finished two tubs of it and I knew in my heart I want to try something else so I got Be Organic's Cocoa Butter Diaper Cream.

Product Description

Our natural diaper cream/balm is made from all natural ingredients like cocoa butter, beeswax and olive oil to nourish, repair and create a barrier to protect your little one from wetness and irritations. Calendula is especially useful in soothing rashes, insect bites and other minor irritations.

Charlize Oral Contraceptive

DISCLAIMER: I am not in any way associated with this product nor have medical background about this matter. I am simply a blogger who decided to share my experience with this product. If you are confused about the dosage, schedule, etc., better consult a doctor to be safe.

Hello everyone! I'm back with a new review that will benefit my women readers. Today, I will be talking about the birth control pills I currently use. It's the Charlize Oral Contraceptive. I'm almost halfway with my second pack so I think it's about time I write about it.

Before this, I used Daphne pills for two years since I was breastfeeding my son back then. When I weaned him off, I switched to Althea but I was only able to use it for one month because of its effects on me (more on that in the days to come). I wanted to go back to using Sophia which I used before I got pregnant but it's been phased out already according to the pharmacy assistant. She recommended this Charlize saying that they're similar so I decided to give it a try.

Use

I started using Charlize after the seventh day of my pill-free days. Based on the leaflet that came in the box, the first pill should be taken after the seventh day of your pill-free days (for 21-pill pack) or the day after you took the last pill of the previous pack (for 28-pill pack). It can also be taken on the first day of your menstrual period or any day of the month as long as you are not pregnant. It's best taken at the same time each day.

Charlize is a 28-pill contraceptive, with the last seven pills as Iron supplement (Ferrous Fumarate).

Blogger Update

Hello everyone! It's been three months since my last post and I really miss writing reviews or any article I can share with all of you. But I don't have the luxury of time to update this blog because I'm busy working on the content of another site which we are launching soon. Additionally, my toddler has been wanting attention even if we are giving him lots of those. He would pull me away from my laptop each time he feels like I'm so serious with what I'm doing. Sometimes he would push me to lie down and tells me to "sleep". Maybe my son knows that I need more sleep? 😄 And guess what? We haven't found a babysitter until now. That's ridiculous! I wonder what caused the extinction... 😄

Anyway, I'm updating this to let you know that I'm still here and still very much interested to write for this site should I be given more free time. I just don't know when will it happen.

Play It Big At The Play Barn

As a mother of a young boy, I'm always on the lookout for various ways to make my child happy and entertained. Aside from buying him toys and taking him to our town plaza, I take him to indoor playgrounds too. I'd usually prefer those located inside malls since it is more convenient but to celebrate his 2nd birthday, we took him to The Play Barn at Solana Premiere in Iloilo Esplanade.

What sets The Play Barn apart from other indoor playgrounds he has been to before is the huge space and facilities like the giant soft slide that is as high as the ceiling. Actually, The Play Barn has only three main attractions - the obstacle house with ball pit, inflatable castle and the inflatable soft slide I mentioned. There are also three basketball hoops, mini trampoline, mini plastic slide as well as bouncy toys.
