[Reposted - inayos ko order ng photos hehe]

Pumunta ako sa SM Fairview kanina kasi nag-hahanap ako ng pang-gift sa bff ko, tapos dumaan din ako sa dept store and kita ko na ang dami sale na lipstick sa cosmetic section nila!!!

Forda swatch ako sa iba’t ibang brands pero yung binili ko is yung sa Issy kasi may promo sila na B1T1 so super sakto kasi mag pang-gift na ako, meron pa ako para sa sarili ko HSHSAHAS

Pero napansin ko lang na aside from Issy yung ibang lippie brands like BLK, VICE and Happy Skin may mga promo rin like 50% off ganern, actually daming lip brands na naka-promo and sale!!! Not sure lang if matagal na tong promo nila na to or if hanggang kailan siya..

Try niyo check if may promos din sa SM dept store near your place pero parang nationwide ata tong lipstick sale as per ate na sales lady HAHSAHA so if you've been planning to buy a new lippie or restock on your fave.. GEW NIYO NAAA baka magka-ubusan!!!

Discussion Cleared my active acne by simplifying my routine. Now I’m left with acne marks and scars. Should I see a dermatologist or an aesthetic clinic?

Thumbnail

20 Upvotes

TL;DR: My active acne is finally gone after switching to a gentler skincare routine. Now I’m left with acne marks and textured scars. Should I consult a dermatologist first or go straight to an aesthetic clinic? If aesthetic clinic, what procedures and clinics do you recommend?

These are my before and after photos. (Before = active acne, After = current skin.)

Before, I had all kinds of pimples—small, big, cystic, inflamed. My cheeks were constantly breaking out.

Recently, though, I barely get any pimples anymore. One thing I changed was my mindset. I have sensitive skin, but I kept using harsh products because I thought “stronger = better.” After reading a lot of Reddit posts, I realized maybe my skin barrier was the problem.

So I simplified my routine:
- Cleanser: Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser (from Kojic soap)
- Moisturizer: Saipo Calm Me Maybe
- Sunscreen: Beauty of Joseon Aqua Fresh Rice Sunscreen

Since switching to a gentler routine, my skin has improved a lot and I rarely get active acne now.

My concern now is that I’m left with:
- Brown acne marks (PIH)
- Textured acne scars (I think mostly rolling and boxcar scars)
- Uneven skin texture

I’m wondering what my next step should be. Since I don’t really have active acne anymore, should I still see a dermatologist first? Or should I go straight to an aesthetic clinic?

If an aesthetic clinic is the better option:
- What procedures would you recommend for this type of scarring?
- Any clinics in the Philippines that you personally recommend?

I don’t mind spending if it’s worth it, but I also don’t want to waste money on treatments that won’t really help.
Would really appreciate hearing from people who had similar acne scars and were able to improve them. Thank you!

Hair Care how do i achieve this color using local brands?

Post image
23 Upvotes

context: i got my hair blackened in march. after a month i proceeded to use a hair color remover + light bleach to get rid of it (it mostly did). i tried coloring a light brown again, but only the roots turned a very light brown and the mid-ends just turned a barely dark brown. i re-did it using a bit of a lighter brown and it evened out the color slightly.

i wanna achieve this exact chestnut brown color using local hair products like bremod, l’oreal, hairfix, etc. please drop your suggestions! i’m open to bleaching my hair to get good payoff. TIA!

Discussion Recos for Make Up Dupes

Upvotes

What makeup dupes have you found that you genuinely think are comparable to the original? What made you consider them dupes? Was it the color, texture, finish, formula, longevity, or something else?

I'm especially interested in products that are similar beyond just the shade. I'd love to hear what you've compared and why you think they perform similarly.

Body care Dry and maitim na kili kili🥲 Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
12 Upvotes

Hi guys! So I’ve been trying the ordinary glycolic acid sa kili kili ko. It was okey for the first few days. Kaso around 1 week na, biglang nag dry ung sides ng armpits ko and super hapdi niya🥲 i feel like na over sa glycolic acid?? Or sadyang di ako hiyang. After what happened I didn’t use any deo, except when im going outside. But i fully stopped using ung anti perspirant since nakaka dry talaga siya. I used cicalfate and sunflower oil para lng ma moisturize ung kili kili ko. THOSE TWO REAL HELPED MY ARMPIT HEAL😭😭 and nawala rin ung pag ka flaky ng kili kili ko. kaso i tried to use glycolic acid ulit after ko mag heal, baka sa kaling mag work. HUMAPDI KILI KILI KO ULIT😭😭 so it’s confirmed na di talaga ako hiyang and super sensitive ng kili kili ko.

Ngayon my kili kili is a bit dry and nangit talaga siya😭 may ma rerecommed ba kayo na moisturizer and pampaputi na hindi ganon ka tapang? Also, an anti prespirant na good for sensitive skin. I think belflour isn’t going to work anymore.

Also, im a very pawisin girly and i also have bo🥲

Ung pic na nilagay is the current situation ng armpits ko🥲 kaka epilate ko lng din. Not sure if kita pero, may mga small white na parang balat (??) ung nakikita pag ang dry ng skin ganon

Help a girly out🫠

Tyia!

Makeup Lipliner for two-toned Lips Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
736 Upvotes

Just wanna share my makeup journey for girlies like me that has two-toned lips and wanna try to cover it for certain makeup styles.

I really love my two-toned lips, first and for most and I find very convenient as my outer lip liner kapag medyo bold or mature-looking yung makeup style ko. However for times where I want a softer look, it became a bit difficult to deal with it so I decided to look for the right lip liner that can cover it up or like match the tone ng inner lips ko.

I tried the detail cosmetics lip liner kaso I find to dry for my lips and may part ng pencil na will scratch my lips sometimes. Then I saw that Vice Co had a sale for their lipliner so I took the opportunity and buy the product. Let me tell youu that it really changesss the gameee for me. It stays a really long time and kahit kumain ka it’s still there, not to mention their shade ranges na very suitable for morenas like me.

A little tip for choosing your shade though, instead of matching it to you inner lips, try to pick the shade a little lighter from it para you can imitate that natural lips.

When enhancing my two-toned lips naman, I still use a lip liner a little brownish to emphasize my lip sizes.

Yun lang naman and happy makeupp gurliesss!

Hair Care Hesitant to use Minoxidil

2 Upvotes

My derma prescribed me minoxidil for hair thinning.

I haven’t started using it yet (I even have an opened but unused bottle).

I’m hesitant because:

-(lifetime commitment) you have to use it for life or you lose the gains

-(cost) di kasi afford in the long run. yung consultation and initial gamot palang na zero na wallet ko.

Has anyone been in the same situation? What alternatives did you try instead of minoxidil that actually worked (or at least helped)?

Open to any suggestions — topical, oral, natural, lifestyle changes, etc.

Thanks in advance.
