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. Over the past few months, I’ve tried and tested two JisuLife stroller fans: the Life2 and the Fan 4. I’ve used the former the…

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. While neither product may be easy to get anymore, I’d still like to share my thoughts on them, especially…

Rosy Rosa 3D Beauty Sponge

Itamae Sushi
For sushi and sashimi, you can’t go wrong with Itamae Sushi. I go to their Akasaka branch since it’s near the apartment. It is in a bustling area with many bars and restaurants, and it looks the most accommodating and safe choice, especially for foreigners. The menu prices are reasonable, and I particularly enjoy the…

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. I’ve used this a few times before, but I decided to finish my older morning moisturizer first. The 5 Alpha Control Cream (now called the Hope 5 Alpha Control Cream) was the…

My current favorite body care product is the Advanced Clinicals Coconut Visible Repair Body Oil. Unfortunately, it’s not easily accessible for purchase, whether online or locally. However, my experience using this product is a good reference for what works on my sometimes dry skin. Description From the official website: … Is an exotic and nourishing…
