Budget cutting season again ladies, especially for those who have quit there jobs for what they have thought then lo and behold - NOTHING. (sishhh, talk about experience) NEVER ASSUME people, NEVER ASSUME! It's deadly.
Anyways, since I 'm saving, I have to cut my expenses on salon services. So I tried this products for the past 2 months (wala ng laman yung mga bottles and sachet, verdict mode) and for my hair care...
I bought my Monea Powerdose hair repair, hair supplement on our local grocery. Worth about 180-200 php. Instructions were -use this product after shampoo and conditioner. Massage on scalp and leave it for about 10-20 minutes and rinse off. Recommended use- 3 times a week. Result to me were,my hair strands became thinner,bagsak looking (sleek) but still looks dead (salon stiff). Smells okay and does not cause dandruff or any other side effects.
Second, I bought my Dark Secret herbal coloring shampoo (Dark Brown) on the same local grocery as my Monea Powerdose for about 30php. Inside you have a free gloves. Apply it like a regular shampoo and leave it for 5 minutes but I usually make it 10 (no adverse effect naman sakin). Can last for 4 weeks but for me, about 2 weeks or so, so I usually apply it twice a month. So far, does not cause hair fall, dandruff or other side effects.
Just a segway, having unrully hair is not all the time sexy. Sometimes, kahit anong make-up mo, if your hair is a mess, wala ding effect pagmamaganda mo.

For my skin care i tried Dermablend cleansing milk as facial wash. Bought in Mercury Drugstore for 50-60php. Can be used in 2 ways- 1 is by the usual facial washing method (lol, method talaga) or 2, by applying it directly on face then wiped off by cloth or cotton (Parang make-up remover siya). Leaves skin soft and moisturize but unfortunately for me, I had break-outs. FYI, this product is like a low end/local version of Cetaphil. Some are afraid to use it because it has "paraben" but some said it was okay because it was dermatologically tested. As for me, after 1 bottle, it was enough.
Then I bought a lotion, just for trying sake. It was Lander advance skin care restoring body lotion. It cost around 200 ata but was totally worth it. My only issue about this product was, it's thick and sticky on my skin. Especially if I'm sweating, very uncomfortable that is why I returned to Johnson's but bought the new variant-the cooling gel. It cools the skin and it's like water once you rub it in. Smells good too. Amoy baby! Anyways, I would not be repurchasing this product until matapos ang tag-init or global warming kasi kahit umuulan, ang INIT!
All in all, I had some good buys and some goodbyes. Well not because of bad side effects, it's just that hindi kami compatible.
