100 pure minerals & good for your skin

100 pure minerals & good for your skin

Ever heard of makeup that loves your skin as much as you do? You’ll feel it each time you put it on as it’s made of 100 percent pure minerals, making it a continuation of good skin care.

Colorescience Mineral Makeup is free of irritants. It has no harsh perfumes, talc, mineral oil, preservatives, alcohol, emulsifiers and dyes. That’s living up to the essence of mineral makeup, which is to nourish and protect the skin while giving it a healthy, natural-looking wash of color. But despite the richness of the pigment, the beauty of Colorescience is that it’s the only mineral makeup that’s pure enough to be worn even after facials, peels and other skin treatments.

The pure minerals in Colorescience, in fact, even help sensitive, post-treatment skin heal faster, since SPF-rated Colorescience products offer stable sun protection, which is especially important for skin that’s been previously treated.

Colorescience mineral makeup is available at Beauty by SM in SM Megamall, SM Makati, SM Fairview and Watsons Greenbelt I. Also available at all House of Obagi branches and affiliated dermatologist clinics nationwide.

Korea's top brand is designed for beautiful skin

Korea's top brand is designed for beautiful skin

Can't help but feature this article from the Philippine Star about one of my favorite brands and I want to share it with you.

The Face Shop, Korea’s number no. 1 cosmetic brand, introduces the Clean Face White line formulated to treat severe acne and post-acne marks.

It effectively combats common skin care problems such as inflammatory breakouts, persistent acne, red marks, acne scars, oiliness and uneven skin tone without drying the skin.



Acne buster: The Face Shop’s Clean Face White line — Post-Acne Nightiime Spot Eraser (P795), White Intensive Blemish Clear Patch (P195), Post-Acne Brightening Serum (P795) and Acne Solution Foam Cleanser (P645) — is formulated to treat severe acne and post-acne marks.

Formulated with a combination of the finest ingredients using sophisticated technology, Clean Face White line also reduces sebum production, exfoliates dead skin cells, kills acne-causing bacteria for a clean complexion and even, smooth skin.

The Clean Face White, which is meant to supplement the Quick & Clean line, offers two sub-lines to cover acne-prone skin concerns: the Acne Solution line for intense acne care, and the Post-Acne line to repair and whiten acne scars.

The Acne Solution line features the Acne Solution Foam Cleanser and Intensive Blemish Clear Patch.

The Acne Solution Foam Cleanser is a medicated facial cleanser that contains green tea, triclocarban that inhibits the sebaceous-gland-stimulating enzyme to reduce sebum excretion, and other active ingredients that penetrate into pores and kill acne bacteria.

The Quick & Clean mild foam wash is suited for oily skin with occasional breakouts while Clean Face White Acne Solution Foam Cleanser is a medicated cleanser for oily skin with persistent acne.

The Intensive Blemish Clear Patch, on the other hand, contains salicylic acid to exfoliate accumulated skin cells and remove pore blockage, and tea tree with anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities. The eight-hour clear patch delivers intense treatment to problem spots. For quicker results, apply Quick & Clean First Aid Gel first, wait for it to dry, then cover with the patch and leave on overnight.

Under the Post-Acne scar repair line, Clean Face White offers Post-Acne Brightening Serum and Post-Acne Nighttime Spot Eraser.

The Post-Acne Brightening Serum is formulated with natural ingredients to remove dead skin cells and promote a faster skin cell turnover cycle, inhibit formation of melanin and brighten skin. This oil-free and mattifying formula also helps reduce sebum excretion, prevent inflammation and blast away acne-causing bacteria.

The Post-Acne Nighttime Spot Eraser contains arbutin to fade post-acne marks and triclosan which inhibits the proliferation of acne bacteria. Its skin lipid complex strengthens skin’s natural protective function for faster repair of damaged tissue.

All Clean Face White products feature anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredients, which are crucial in preventing the proliferation of acne bacteria, the main cause of inflammatory acne.

After four weeks of constant use, laboratory test results revealed a visible reduction of acne and redness, a more even skin tone, and softer-looking skin.

The Face Shop in the Philippines is located at Glorietta, Power Plant Mall, Bonifacio High Street, Bonifacio Global City, Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Place Manila Midtown Wing, Shangri-La Plaza Mall, The Podium, Eastwood Mall, Shoppesville Arcade, Greenhills Shopping Center, TriNoma, Alabang Town Center, Festival SuperMall, SM Megamall, SM North EDSA-The Block, SM Mall of Asia, SM Sucat, SM Southmall, SM Fairview, SM Taytay, SM City Pampanga, SM City Bacolod, Ayala Center Cebu, and SM Cebu.’

Bangs for you

Bangs for you

If you think that we Asians are following Hollywood, you are totally wrong. Aside from doing our blockbuster movies, tv series and butt kicking Kung Fu moves, they are also "copying" our hairstyles. Power "bangs" are totally back and Hollywood is following suit. Compare and judge for yourselves...

The Face Shop's New Fragrances

The Face Shop's New Fragrances

The Face Shop Philippines recently launched Soul Fragrances, its latest line of sweet, youthful and fresh scents for men and women. The event was held at the third floor of Bonifacio High Street just across The Face Shop. The venue was beaming with Manila’s pretty people eager to take a whiff of the new fragrances in a carnival-themed ambiance. Special guest were The Face Shop Korea Marketing Executives Eunice Lee and Bona Kim. Upon entering the venue, guests were ushered to the Memory Wall, where they wrote down their answer to the question: “If I were 15 again, I would…” Guests gathered around the four fantastic fragrance displays to sample the different Soul Fragrance variants. Soul Secret Blossom is a fruity-floral fragrance for the naturally sensual and sweet woman. Soul Sweet Pleasure is a floral, woody, musk fragrance that captures the spirit of a girl falling in love for the first time(gosh!). Designed for the urban sophisticate, Soul Wish Upon A Star is an enthralling floral-oriental fragrance. Not to be outshined, Soul Essential for Men was like a breath of fresh air for its citrusy scent that men (and boys) really love.

To discuss fragrance notes and the mood that each fragrance evoked, as well as complementing makeup looks for each fragrance, The Face Shop Philippines Brand Manager Maureen Abenoja and Training Manager Marge Apacible presented the Soul Fragrances and popular eye, cheek, and lip collections namely, Touch & Shine Dual Eye Color, Illuminating Cushion Blusher and Color Shimmer Lipstick to the delight of everyone. How I hope Kpopsites-ters get invited in their next product launch! ‘Till then XOXO Kpopsites-ters!

The Face Shop Experience

The Face Shop Experience

Those gals and guys who wanted to achieve that noticeably Korean fine skin try to visit The Face Shop. I’ve already visited 3 shops already one at the Glorietta in Makati, the new SM Taytay in Taytay, Rizal and at the Robinson’s Galleria in Ortigas. I noticed that the stores were all well kept, well lighted and smells fresh! and I mean really fresh that you wanted to stay there forever! Also, the sales clerks are not intimidating and were very friendly and ready to answer all your questions.

I admit that I’m not blessed with good skin, but when I tried the BB cream at it was like miracle! My skin really felt refreshed. You’d probably ask how I learned about BB cream? Well it was mentioned by Hwang Bo at We Got Married to erase dark spots. I also suggest that you try their lotion that suits your skin type.

You also get to earn points if you are a Bench Lifestyle Card holder since in the Philippines, it’s part of the Bench Family of Ben Chan. I can proudly boast that I’m a holder of that red Bench Lifestyle Card.
