JisuLife Stroller Fan Review: Life2 vs Fan 4
Since it’s summer all year round in the Philippines 😛🥵, a stroller fan has become an essential for my baby, especially during our weekend mornings at the park and post-dinner walks.

My Thoughts on Two Cleansers That May Already Be Gone: Holika Holika Prime Youth Black Snail vs Dior Capture Totale Review
In this post, I’ll be reviewing two cleansers that are hard to find, if not quietly discontinued. I rotate skincare (and makeup) products a lot, so things tend to last me longer than they should, lol.

Itamae Sushi

Leejiham 5 Alpha Control Cream Review for Oily Skin
Since I emptied the BeautiControl Facial Spa Defend and Restore Moisture Creme SPF20, I switched back to the Leejiham 5 Alpha Control Cream.
