Human Heart Nature Nourishing Toner

I really love Human Heart Nature's Hydrating Toner because it has Moringa (Malunggay) extract in it. Everyone knows how beneficial the moringa to our body! Read my review here! I've been using this toner for years and this will definitely be a must have for me. Unfortunately, I have this feeling I got to switch to another toner just to give my skin something new. Updating our skincare routine will keep our skin in its top performance; it'll help keep our skin cells work and not fluctuate in the long run.

I bought the Nourishing Toner suited for normal and sensitive skin. But you're probably wondering why use it when I have oily skin. Why shouldn't I use a toner suited for my skin's needs? Simple: it's just what I feel like to use at the moment. And it worked out perfectly over the last couple of weeks. I also did a review about their Nourishing Toner, read it here. I mentioned that the 'old' formula made my skin sting, but it was cleared by Human Heart Nature that it was actually a cooling sensation. I do not know how to answer that, but this toner, with its new packaging, which also means it is in NEW formula, will be gentle for everyone to use.

Nourishing Toner 200ml | Php184.75

Nurture it with goodness of tomato extract, from out Nourishing Face Toner. It's one of the most powerful antioxidants that soothes and helps repair skin leaving it unbelievably smooth, soft and healthy -- inside and out. It doesn't just help prevent skin damage caused by free radicals, it preps your skin for what should come next -- moisturising! The end result? Northing but fresh, soft and breathtakingly smooth skin!

Guess what? I LOVE THEIR NOURISHING TONER! :) It definitely didn't caused my skin to sting, breakouts or dryness. It is mild on the skin. The scent still has that bubblegum that I really look forward to. If you are familiar with Bazooka, that's what it smells like. My skin feels and looks amazing. They have definitely improved the formula while still keeping that bubblegum scent. (How do they do that?) It is natural; no harmful chemicals, no synthetic preservatives, and alcohol which are a big no-no's to sensitive skin. Do pair it with their Nourishing Facial Wash if you still can't get enough with tomatoes in your skincare regimen.

This is going to be my current favourite toner from this day forth. I am happy we have a nearest Human Heart Nature store in my area. It's easy to restock and chat about what's the latest. :)

Everyone's skin is different. What may work for someone, may not necessarily mean may work for you. Still wise to do patch skin test if you are allergic on certain ingredients.

Human Heart Nature offers awesome deals so keep on a lookout on that. Yes to discounts!

Check the expiry date before purchasing. Store below 35 degree Celsius and away from direct sunlight.

THE FACE SHOP - Flebote White Crystal Brightening Emulsion

The Korean skincare routine has made an impact to a lot of women (like ME!!!) because of their beautiful porcelain skin. It is no secret how many products they add on their face every night, and I admire their discipline and patience. It is all about layering products to give our skin plump and supple. To some, it may seem like forever to get it done, but once you are used to it, it is a must no matter what!

I finally got myself an emulsion from THE FACE SHOP. This is completely new to me. I haven't tried any emulsion since the day I got introduced to Korean skincare. For the most part, I buy products what I feel my skin needs. That's one of the best parts about shopping: hunting awesome products out there! I like to take my time and read the description, ask the sales person, make comparisons, and fall in love with the fragrances.

THE FACE SHOP - Flebote White Crystal Brightening Emulsion 130ml | Php1150

A prestige Age-delaying + Whitening Line that has been clinically proven for its effectiveness. The extraordinary ingredients from the nature of Korea (Korean White Pine) are further supported by the latest technology to be truly efficacious against pigmentation, signs of ageing and dullness.

Strengthens Moisture Control and Optimizes skin's defense. This high-potency brightening emulsion with Korean White Pine Extract, a natural skin brightener, and Nopal Extract softens and brightens rough skin tons that is damaged by UV rays and environmental pollution.

The term EMULSION is another word for MOISTURIZER or LOTION (for the face); The term SKIN SOFTENER as TONER, and ESSENCE as SERUM. :)) Woah! Mind blown! That is a good thing; layer and layer and layer of moisturing products. :D Emulsion is a slightly heavier cream just like a face lotion.

I was drawn to this product because it helps brighten the face, repairs skin from UV rays and environmental pollution, and of course, delay skin aging. (The sun between 10am-3pm is harsh to us!!!)

And from my experience? YES! It did brightened my skin and look plump after a month of use. I can't tell much about delay skin aging or anything because it is too early to tell... but, I am glad the products quickly sinks in my skin and help renew my skin every night as I sleep. We know UV rays are harmful to the skin; we need to apply sunblock during the day, and give our skin the TLC at night.

I like to layer my emulsion with another layer of moisturiser (any brand) and/or a sleeping pack. Again, it is all about locking moisture! That is a must!!! It doesn't feel greasy or heavy at all with that product on my face. Guess I am used to it. And just because I have oily skin, it will NOT stop me providing the moisture my skin needs.

Do not forget to apply creams at the back of your hands, neck and décolletage.

THE FACE SHOP Pomegranate and Collagen Volume Lifting Eye Cream

Eye creams are wonderful to keep the delicate skin around our eyes fresh and lively. These kind of creams are much thicker and contain more oil than regular facial lotion. With its active ingredients, it helps reduce fine lines, dark circles and puffiness.

Some people think they have to be in a certain age to start applying eye creams or start any skincare regimen. (I can't stand that!!!!) I say, the earlier the better. Do it now!

Pomegranate and Collagen Volume Tightening Eye Cream 50ml | Php1195

[ Pomegranate extract 1% + Marine collagen water 10% ]

This moisturising and nourishing eye cream helps skin to feel firm and moisturised as pomegranate and collagen extracts gets absorbed

The packaging is really really cute, red and buttonlike. Just looking at the red cap already draws me in. (Doesn't it remind you of those Red Alert Button in movies?) Inside is a light pink thick cream and smells dainty. Pomegranate and Collagen are excellent to help maintain skin elasticity.

I hate dipping my fingers inside the tub. That is why a tiny, red spatula is provided to scoop some of the product on your finger for hygienic purposes. I always wonder though where to keep the spatula when not in use. So I came up with an idea: I like to keep the spatula safe inside the box. I do not want it sitting around collecting dust or fall on the ground or something while I am gone. Wise not to throw the box away.

How to Apply an Eye Cream:
1. Scoop some product on your finger. A little amount is all it need; do not put on too much.
2. Use your ring finger to dab the product from the inside to the outside corner of your eye. Be gentle.

After two months and a half, I would have to say, it made the skin around my eyes look brighter and hydrated. I did notice some dots under my eyes on my first week of use, but it went away after a week later! I do not know what it was, but I sure am thankful it didn't caused anything frightful!

Eye creams are just the half of it if you want to achieve that youthful pair of eyes. The rest of the work comes from us.

1. Get 7-8 hours of sleep every night. Any creams applied are better absorbed by our skin at night when we are fully rested.
2. Wear sunglasses to prevent eyes from squinting. Bring your umbrella or wear a hat with a wide brim for more protection from the sun.
3. Do not rub your eyes.
4. Eat your fruits and vegetables.
5. Drink water to keep yourself hydrated.
6. Less sodium intake.
7. Avoid alcohol.
8. Apply sunscreen throughout the day. It doesn't mean once we applied sunblock, it doesn't mean we can sit under the sun far too long. We still need to look for shelter from the UV rays.
9. Chill two used teabags and place them over your eyes and relax.
10. Look at the world with beauty. Appreciate the little things in life.

Keep those eyes sparkling!
 

 

Note:

I changed my mind on using eye creams that comes in this kind of container.

I rather choose that comes in a tube or a dispenser. Do keep the spatula clean at all times.
