    This Retinol Alternative is Making Waves in Age-defying favorites

    Anyone who’s looking on how to reverse the signs of aging has come across the buzzword  retinol, a classic skincare ingredient that is a derivative of Vitamin A that when used consistently,  helps increase cell turnover, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles. However, retinol is quite  harsh on the skin, and getting used to it means you might need to increase the strength of  retinol in your skincare, and not all skin types can tolerate this.  The gentle, plant-based retinol alternative is making waves in age-defying favorites around the  world. Bakuchiol extract is naturally derived from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia, more  commonly known as the babchi plant is…

    REVIEW: Loop Quiet – noise reducing earplugs (finally, sleep!)

    Hello everyone! Today, I would like to share with you one of my best Lazada purchases this year: the LOOP Quiet Earplugs. Thanks to these earbuds, I can finally sleep well, as I don’t hear the chickens crowing every morning anymore (in addition to the bipolar medications prescribed by my doctor). These earbuds are perfect if you have noisy neighbours, dogs, or someone who likes to sing karaoke next door, if your apartment is near a noisy road, etc. The Loop Quiet Earplugs cost 1,095 pesos (buy Loop Earplugs here), which is a bit pricey, but I have tried cheaper earbuds before, and they were just a waste of money.…

    Our Disney on Ice Manila Experience (2023)

    It’s been 30+ years since I’ve experienced Disney on Ice. I can perfectly remember the moment; I was five years old, seated way way up the General Patronage seats, but still in awe and wonder of what I was able to see below. My favorite Disney characters prancing on ice. It made me want to take up ice skating lessons too! There were also snack vendors, from popcorn, hotdogs, cotton candy, and yes, the snow cone with a lightup musical mug. I wasn’t able to buy the snow cone mug, because we couldn’t afford it at that time. But I’ve always been grateful for the experience. Thirty years later, like…

    review: Chanel No 5 Eau de Parfum

    The Chanel No 5 Eau de Parfum is my first ever “luxury” perfume purchase. I bought a 30ml bottle years ago as a blind buy, when my lolo told me that this was his signature scent. While it’s labelled for women, my grandpa doesnt give a damn and still wears it anyway. That’s how confident he was about his masculinity. I remember for getting 2 bottles for only around 5k in Rustan’s at Shangri-la Mall, and during that time, meant A LOT for me, who was earning less than 20k a month. Hey I was barely out of college! Hehe. I saved up for it and got the bottle during…

    Our Quick Brunch at Single Origin Cafe (Vertis North)

    I should be blogging the cafes and restaurants I’ve been visiting more often. I used to, then I thought to myself, why should I labor on something that I should just enjoy? Like eating. Why should we take photos before we taste the food? Does it not ruin the experience? That’s what I used to think. But recently, I realized, that we’re not taking the snapshots for the heck of it. Photos are taken for making the special moments as memories, even if it’s as simple as enjoying a sandwich. A few weeks ago Ryan and I had brunch at Single Origin Cafe at Vertis North. It was fairly new…
