Katialis: Affordable Yet Effective Pimple Treatment

So I was searching for an effective overnight treatment for acne when I saw that one of my favorite beauty blogs (www.kikaysikat.com) featured this product. Queen Momshie, Kaycee Enerva tried it and it was really effective for her so as always, her write-up convinced me to try it.

Katialis Ointment

Katialis Ointment is used for acne, irritable skin area, ring worm, bacterial infection, parasite infection, inflammatory skin disorder and other conditions.

Ingredients:

* Resorcinol: used for irritable skin area, ring worm, skin infection, viral skin infections and other conditions.

The packaging is very simple yet very informative because all you need to know about the product is clearly printed on the box. It's so handy that it can fit in your pocket so you can carry this product anywhere. It has no spatula or whatever so you need to use a cotton swab to get the product out hygienically.

My jaw literally dropped when I saw the ingredients. Dude, they are powerful ingredients intended for skin infections and other skin conditions. Now I am not wondering why this product can cure pimple overnight. True enough, the Katialis Ointment cured my active pimples overnight. I would apply the ointment on my pimple before going to bed and I would wake up with a flattened and healed pimple. I am doing this since two weeks ago and I am enjoying it. I just stopped now because I need to try another acne set from Mary Kay Philippines. Watch out for my review soon.

Be careful when using this product, I suggest you just put it exactly on top of affected area because it stings. Also, do a spot test before using the product to see if it suites your skin. Another downside that I noticed is that, it leaves darker pimple spot.

All in all, I recommend using Katialis Ointment for pimple spot treatment. This product works (overnight) and true to its promise. This is an affordable and quick pimple treatment that you can easily buy in the nearest botika in your area.

I made a video explaining how Katialis Ointment healed my pimple. Feel free to watch here:

Rainy day? No problem! foodpanda is on its way!

by Unknown 2:15 PM

Umbrellas, wet shoes, and traffic; the rainy season has officially arrived. Having that said, normal activities such as eating out, watching movies, or hanging out with your besties become more difficult and staying in gets even more tempting. I am a home person especially during rainy days. I like to chill at home the whole day and eat my favorite foods. The problem with me is I don't know how to cook even as simple as fried egg sounds really complicated to me.

Luckily, we can now do almost everything online, from streaming your favorite movie or TV series, shopping, and even ordering food! This is made possible by the increasing number of mobile applications today offering digital services like foodpanda. foodpanda is an online food delivery platform that enables users to access a variety of restaurants from their mobile phones or desktop computer. With this app, people don’t need to wait in traffic or restaurant queues anymore, their food cravings are always just a few clicks away..

If you are new to foodpanda, allow me to share you a step by step guide on how you can easily order your favorite food. I have been doing this for couple of months now so I can confidently say that it's really convenient and super easy!

1. First thing that you need to do is enter your location or allow foodpanda to locate you. You can also send food to your friend or family member by simply entering their current location. foodpanda will smartly give you the list of nearby (within 3 kilometer radius) restaurants to ensure the quality and freshness of the foods to be delivered.

2. Now is the time to choose the restaurant that you want. In this section, you'll also see how fast they can deliver your food, the usual ETA is 60 minutes but based on my experience, it was always less than an hour!

3. Of course, you have to check the menu and select the foods that you want to order. In this section, you will also see the minimum order required and the delivery fee.

4. Now it's about time to add the food of your choice to your basket. This section displays the details of the food as well as the price. After reviewing it, just click the green button (Add to basket).

5. The next step is reviewing all your orders and make sure everything is in your basket. Once everything is good, just hit Proceed to Checkout.

6. You are almost there! Enter the complete address where you want your food delivered.

7. Of course, we have to pay for the food so choose the payment method the restaurant is offering. I usually go with Cash On Delivery if it's available.

8. All done! Just review your order and hit the Place Order button!

After doing those very simple steps, all you have to do is sit back, chill and wait for your order from foodpanda to arrive.

Thanks to foodpanda! I can now spend my rest day at home eating my favorite food without dealing all the noise and hassle of the outside world. That's the real staycation for me. :)

Snow Skincare Whitening Products Review

by Unknown 2:32 PM

Aside from Korean skincare which is very popular nowadays specially now that Korean dramas are being watched in every Filipinos' smartphone, laptop, and television haha! Thailand skincare is also in the spotlight since early 2011. I was honestly skeptical to try any Thailand made skincare products because I have a sensitive skin and I am really not familiar with their formulations, ingredients and basically skincare. I read a lot of reviews and positive feedback online and I also did a little bit of research and so I was convinced to try the:

What?

Snow Skincare Whitening Products

Owned by Beauty Booster Co., SNOW Skin Care emerged from an elite group with extensive experience in skincare, health, and beauty products.

Where to buy?

CheskasStore.net

How much?

P3,350.00 (SET)

P1,100.00 Snow DD Cream is an ultra light Perfect Foundation + Sunscreen with SPF 50 PA++

This DD cream is perfect if you are looking for a makeup, moisturizer and sunscreen in one. I like how it was able to even out my skin with a little bit of coverage. Yes, it has a very light coverage so that might hinder you from buying this product if you are a full coverage girl/boy. The good thing about this product is it feels very light on skin, I feel like my skin is still breathing after putting on one generous layer. It has a semi matte finish which is perfect for oily skin. I also like its cute packaging with a pump for a more hygienic product dispensing.

P898.00 Snow Aura White Facial Cleanser is a daily cleanser innovation with a perfect combination of the most efficient extracts, old Bird's Nest, Gold Kiwi fruit and Pure Gold Powder.

To be honest with you, I am not really a fan of this cleanser. I mean it's a nice mild cleanser that works like your favorite gentle cleansers like Cetaphil and Physiogel but there's soemething in this product that I really cannot tell what! Hahaha honestly, I feel like it's not cleansing my face enough and I hate that feeling. Though, my skin feels really soft after using this product, it's not really my cup of tea. Anyway, I appreciate its generous packaging with a pump.

P1,500.00 Snow Aura Whitening Booster Mask is a combination of advanced whitening technology, Hento White and Liposome encap nano vitamins A, C, and E.

This is the most popular product from the Snow Skincare line. A lot of Filipino Beauty Bloggers are raving about it and true enough, this product is gold! Literally, it dispenses gold pigments once applied on your skin. I like its smell and consistency, it feels really light on skin and didn't cause me acne breakout. In fact, it was able to calm down my existing acne and made my face lighter and fresher looking. I would use this product two times a week before going to bed and I would wake up with a more blooming or glowing face. I just don't like it's packaging because it doesn't have a pump, thanks to the spatula provided in the box I can get the product out without touching the entire thing.

I highly recommend trying Snow Skincare Products of Thailand. For the cleanser, I am just really not a fan of it but all in all, they are super nice and effective as they worked well on my acne prone skin. Another thing to consider when buying these products are the prices. If money doesn't matter for you, give it a go dude! :)
