Products that contain Centella Asiatica is a must on my skincare regimen since I have a sensitive and acne-prone skin. The condition of my skin has gotten worse when I combined products that are not suitable for each other that’s why I am always on the look out for a spot corrector that will lessen the break outs on the problem areas of my face.


Claim:
Helps recover problem areas without irritation. Derived from natural origins, this cream calms the skin and protects it. Great for acne without the harsh irritation.


Notable ingredients:
Madecassoside: Skin barrier strengthening and skin protection
Panthenol: Skin soothing and moisture strengthening
Contains 71% Centellica: Enhances Skin soothing effects

Usage:
This is recommended for those who have sensitive and acne-prone skin.

How to use this cream:
Patch test the cream first before using it on your face. Can be used for day and night application.  A little goes a long way with this gel type cream. You can actually dab a little on an active acne or apply it all over your face because the cream is easily absorbed by the skin. This is best to be used after the red tingle peel serum as it moisturizes the exfoliated skin.




So Natural Centel Get Back Cream Review:


After my monthly visitor came, I was left with three huge pimples on my forehead, my chin, and just above my eyebrows.  I ran out of my usual spot corrector cream and this was when I opened and tried the So Natural Centel Get Back Cream.This is a gel-type cream and is non-sticky upon application.  I also use this during daytime and I love the fact that this is light on my skin. In addition, it makes my makeup application look flawless and my skin more hydrated. So Natural Centel Get Back Cream is non-comedogenic so this is perfect for my sensitive and acne-prone skin.  This cream has become a staple  on my skincare regimen and I always bring this whenever I travel. It helped reduce the size of my pimples. Moreover, it lessens the redness of my face. The only con of this cream is the size of the tub. I just wish that they come up with a bigger version.


Would I repurchase?
I definitely would repurchase this cream as it helped

Tiger Balm, which has long been an institution for healing and pain relief in the Philippines, is launching another innovative product line to help the hardworking Filipinos relieve their muscular aches and pains that come from a build-up of unaddressed and unrelieved stress. Filipinos of all ages and classes endure this kind of stress at all times, often without realizing it – from the soon-to-graduate college student, the mother or father juggling two to three jobs to give the family an enjoyable lifestyle, to the businessman or professional who has a hard time sleeping at night to make sure his or her company earns a significant profit.

The accumulation of unspoken and unacknowledged tension and anxiety leads to aching joints, back pains, a stiff neck, or tight shoulder muscles. Sometimes it manifests in unexpected muscular strains on the limbs, like their arms and legs, when they try to release some of that stress through sports, exercise, or any physical activity. Fortunately, the 21st-century Filipino has a constant ally in Tiger Balm, a familiar and family- friendly brand which has stocked up many medicine cabinets in our homes and offices for more than 50 years. The brand itself immediately conjures up beloved images of comforting and soothing Tiger Balm oils and creams that heal insect bites and treat muscles atrophied by arthritis. Tiger Balm, produced by Haw Par Healthcare, is one of the world’s leading and most versatile topical analgesic brands for almost a century.






Tiger Balm’s products have been around for over 100 years because of the proven benefits these have given the consumers in over 100 countries, including the Philippines. It has combined traditional and enduring oriental healing methods, some of which had been used in the ancient times by Chinese emperors, with cutting-edge medical research and development made possible by today’s technology. Tiger Balm has positioned itself to create dedicated solutions for specific symptoms, pains, and discomforts.



The brand’s new product line, the Tiger Balm Plaster, designed to address the muscular pain and other aches caused by non-stop stress, is the latest example. What makes it stand out is the organic way it relieves all aching sensations while providing alleviation and comfort to the targeted muscle. Using hydrogel technology on non-woven ventilated material makes the plaster user- friendly, easy to put on and equally easy to remove. Consumers can conveniently carry a pack of it in their bags or knapsacks, and quickly slap on a plaster on a sprained or hurting muscle within seconds. The seamlessness by which the plaster ‘blends’ with the skin is almost soothing, and absent of any annoying tingling (also known as ‘kirot’).

The Tiger Balm Plaster provides effective relief for muscular pains, stiff shoulders, contusions,
sprains, backaches, and neck pains.The removal of the Tiger Balm Plaster is virtually painless. To professionals, decision-makers, athletes, and parents who care about their appearance, another added value is that Tiger Balm plaster does not leave any residue or mark on their skin.

The pain relief brought on by the Tiger Balm Plaster lasts for hours. This should also come as
welcome news for today’s Filipinos who want more continuous hours of relief from their lingering
pain. The secret of Tiger Balm’s longevity in healing and health-related matters is clear: Tiger
Balm works where it hurts.

I always admire other people who can commit to a 10 to 12- step skincare routine. We all want that glass smooth skin like our favorite K-drama or K-pop stars.  One step in my skincare routine that I find too tedious to do is to exfoliate. I know that when proper exfoliation is done twice a week , it can allow the skin to renew itself and reveal a much brighter and softer surface. I tried sticking to a more elaborate routine but I just don't have the time or the energy to do it lately. Good thing there are now products in the market that makes my routine simple and time efficient.


Notable ingredients:
AHA: Penetrated below the surface of the skin.Capable of slouching off dead skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and acne marks
BHA(salicylic acid) :Reduce sebum production
Berries:  Restore and brightens the skin.

Claims: 
Resurfaces skin as it removes dead cells and pore-clogging impurities; helps prevent blackheads and breakouts; red, watery type serum refines pore size, improves clarity, and boosts skin cell renewal; brightens and evens out skin tone and texture

Review:
I used this Red peel tingle serum twice only for two weeks as I don't want to over-exfoliate my skin. The color of the serum reminded me of a Sangria wine. It comes in a sturdy frosted bottle.This serum has a light cranberry juice scent. The consistency of the serum is almost water-like and it easily glides on my skin. There is a slight tingling effect that is tolerable when I massaged this for 30-60 seconds. The rationale behind the tingling is that  the serum melts my dead skin layers that have accumulated on my skin surface as well as old dead skin inside the pores. I have a huge pimple on my forehead when i started incorporating this for two weeks. The size of the pimple had already reduced plus it makes my skin soft and smooth when I wake up in the morning.  It doesn't dry out my face and I also notice that my blackheads lessen on the nose area. The serum is quite pricey but for a girl like me who is always on the go, it is a great investment since I need products that save my time while delivering good results.
