When I was shooting a Korean indie film which wrapped up just last month, I was working with non-main stream actress Jee Sun Than (Photographed at the left). What she lacks in English communication skills, she makes up for kindness and beautiful PERFECT skin. (Photo courtesy of Jee Sun Than)

As we were nearing the end of our 2 month shoot together, I finally had the courage to ask her what skin care she was using. Her skin was like baby skin: PORELESS and Blemish Free. Korean women, she said, love skin care. But the one thing they really spend on is: FACIAL MASKS.

Mud masks and mask sheets have always been a part of my skin care regimen, but only about once every 2 weeks, or sometimes when I'm in the mood, the most was once a week. But when Jee told me that she never misses applying mask sheets every night, I was determined to try it so I too can have her beautiful clear, radiant skin. Her skin doesn't even need prepping!

According to Jee, she didn't have a specific mask that she uses, she actually uses different ones, or whatever mask she gets a hold of from the drugstore. So I bought 7 different masks to try for myself and see the effects after a week.

I have never been the eyebag kinda girl until recently when I have been sleeping late the past few weeks. (In-denial me says: They grew puffy overnight, I swear!) My cousin's visit to Manila bringing me goodies from Shiseido was just perfect timing!


Since this was a gift (my cousin gave me 2 packs), I can't give you the price here in Manila. But in the US, they cost around $62 (more or less PhP2,600) for a box of 12 applications.

Despite Clinique being one of the most hypoallergenic company there is in the world of cosmetics today, my skin can never seem to respond to Clinique products. For some reason, my skin flakes and dries, and so for years I avoided Clinique thinking we were just not M.F.E.O. -My skin is picky and weird that way! Ugh.

Until recently... Clinique has reformulated their "Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion", taking them more than 6 years to revamp, and has now come up with the NEW and improved formula: Lotion + (plus)!

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ (120ml, PhP 1900 / 50ml, PhP 880)

I'm back! OMG. It has been one crazy month! I was filming a Korean Indie Film but we wrapped up our shoot so I am back to blog! Yay!

So, let me tell you about my wonderful experience with H2O. I have one of the driest skins ever and I have to use really creamy, heavy moisturizing products to make my skin supple (even with a very religious skin care regime).

H2O is finally in Manila! And thank you to the wonderful team of H2O for sending me a sample kit!
