Its Never A Goodbye

Have you noticed something? You may have been wondering all along of why I didn’t make any blog updates and posts for more than a month while all the bloggers out there are posting every now and then. Hmm.. Don’t you worry guys, I’m definitely fine. Its just that I was considering an offer from someone dear to me of having a joint blog during those times. Not that I hate what I am doing but…

Maliit Na Bagay

I rarely watch news nowadays, dahil kung meron lang siguro kong sakit sa puso, inatake na ko. Lalo na kung ang balita eh tungkol sa mga problema ng bansa pagdating sa pamahalaan at mga mamamayan nito. Kasali tayo dito. Oo, IKAW at AKO. Kung iniisip mong wala kang magagawa dahil mismong buhay mo, hindi mo maayos, buong bansa pa kaya? Paano na nga ba? Papano ka na? Hindi ba’t mas maigi kung ang…

What could we do, as a Bella Community to empower and reach more Filipinas in the next 10 years? Being with BDJ for the past 7 years made me realize who I used to be and who I am NOW. With all the struggles, happy moments, and everything that occured, it was all noted. I realized it was all worth it. It boost my morale on being more of me and less of what they want me to be. I guess in the next 10 years, Filipinas can be more empowered by expressing our thoughts, write it down, plan for our future of who we wanted to be and how we wanted ourselves to exist and be known. Reach out other women and encourage them to join the league of future Filipinas whom are known to be hollistically awesome! It's not bad to be known with positive virtues in life. Let's be IT and share IT! I'm a proud bella. I believe in the power of women as we are created God with so many unique gifts, especially multi-tasking. Here's my 7 BDJ powerplanner collections. Share yours too.‎ @bdjbuzz #BDJVETERANS made with Flipagram #flipagram #Echosmith

Havey na Havey ang Olay Series Part 3

Being beautiful is enough for a woman and that's what I thought too at the first place but when Olay drives the claim on being in our best beautiful inside out. Naintriga ko. How it could be possible?

We already know that we're beautiful. Uh huh! However, being on our best beautiful requires effort of believing on what we can do, how we stand out, our advocacy in life, the difference we make and most of all, doing everything despite of anything. For me, that's what the best beautiful means. We are not just another pretty face.

Meanwhile, I'm excited to share how this little tube changed my daily routine and perception in a positive way. I began loving this product when I saw the results in just 7 days. Awesome! Hep, day cream pa lang yan. What more if I have the full set of product added up for my regimen? Hopefully, I could do that ASAP.

So, this small tube I have is the Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 day cream with SPF 15. small tube, di nga?

I shared my thoughts first to my mom about this product and little did I know she's using it already. Luckily, I got something for a free trial. Imagine, just a pea sized amount, applied twice in the morning and I experienced how effective this product is. Now let me give you a list of what this product claims and what I have noticed as I used it for 7 days.

1. Firms Skin. Yes it does and I noticed that on the 3rd day of using it.

2. Evens tone. I don't have a fair skin, as I'm a one shade darker than a morena. So, whenever I apply this cream on my face, it sets my tone evenly like I have put a beige cream when I didn't.

3. Moisturizes. Well, it absolutely works that way. And the good thing is, its not sticky and oily in the face. Perfect for normal to dry skin. I even put this cream before I apply my make up.

4. Smoothens skin. And it does even on the first day after applying the cream. My face becomes smooth and moisturized enough.

5. Reduces apperance of pores. I expected this on the 7th day but I was wrong. As early as 3 days, I noticed that some of the pores got smaller as my skin goes firmer. Specially those pimple that popped unexpectedly, it easily shrink without over-drying or flaking.

6. Reduces the appearance of aged spots. Since I'm still young as I thought haha. I would rather share how my mom find this true. She had a freckles on her faces after using a wrong product before. She told me that Olay fixed it and now her skin is coming back to what it used to be. She had to wait for about 3 months of continuous use due to the severity.

7. Reduces appearance of lines and wrinkles. I usually find some tiny lines around my eye and I find it so amusing that Olay is getting rid of it. I don't see it fading in an instant but I know it will be since it firmed and smoothen my skin. Even mom assures me well of this coz I can see less wrinkless in her face than before.

8. SPF 15. Oh never leave the house without a sunblock on our face! Aside from your UV umbrellas though hehe. One of the main culprit of aging nowadays is the UV ray. So this is something worth keeping. Kahit ito pa lang OK na, bonus na yung ibang benefits.

I have added Olay on my daily regimen even before applying make up but I am confident enough that I am fighting against the 7 signs of ageing.

For me, its worth buying since it is totally effective though I've heard many say its costly. At the end of the day, price is nothing compared to a beauty that can be saved to last. I know a product that is more expensive than this but now, I prefer this one. As soon as my stock goes out, I'll buy one.

And finally! I'm done with the last review series for Olay. Hay salamat. lol. I appreciate those people who took their time on reading out all my post for this series. And if you haven't, you're missing a portion of what I kept on talking about, perhaps you can check those first. For those who wants to share your insights, the box is located below the post.

Havey na Havey ang Olay Series Part 2

I love the squeaking sound of being clean but more often, I feel like my skin is over dried right after a shower. Did you have that problem too? I've tried several soaps before, something to do with charcoal, fruits and even milk. It works but it won't last long that I ended up having to put another moisturizer. Hassle pag nagmamadali na kaso kailangan talaga.

Well, worry no more!

Here's something that I have tried for a week and it's worth sharing. With the product I received from Belle De Jour and P&G, it made me feel at my best beautiful even right after shower. TRUE-LA-LOO.

Here it is:

Thanks to Olay Deep Moisture with Honey body wash! 

Here's a list of why you should keep it:

1. With its latest Moisture Outlast Technology formula, the moisture goes deeper on our skin layer by layer. Uh huh. Nanunuot so pang-matagalan nga talaga.

2. It lasted on my skin with no sticky or slimy feeling after shower. Yey! Skin becomes so soft and smooth. Goodbye to overdried skin after shower.

3. I even tried it without putting another moisturizer/lotion all through the night after I took a quick shower, just this product. And amazingly, it delivered what it promised. Makakatipid na sa lotion.

4. In just a small amount of Olay together with the help of a loofah or a soft wet puff, lather all over the body then rinse, it works already! Matipid ulit.

5. I like that it's light-scented between milk and honey. Doesn't sting on your nose for those who have a sensitive allergic rhinitis. Hehe.

Its a two-thumbs up for me, well-recommended since it kept the promise of helping us to be in our best beautiful. Keep it up Olay!

I'm just wondering of how much this one would cost though. Well anyway, quality products are worth buying as it goes for me.

Now that the body is covered with moisture, papahuli ba naman ang face? Of course, not. So please check my next post as I have done a test for 1 week. Oh yeah effort kung effort. Ganyan ako kabusisi. LOL.

Again, thank you for checking out my blog. This is the second part of the series I made for the product review of Olay given by Belle De Jour and P&G. My gratitude never stops. If you're curious with how they got me surprised too, kindly check the previous post I made about this amazing freebies I got.

Havey na Havey ang Olay Series Part 1

Well, through the years I've always been a sneaky-silent-reader to my favorite blogs. But hey, thanks to Belle De Jour and their power planner  for pushing me around to do this because they sent me a wonderful and free product. So, voila! I'm doing my very first product-review-blog-series in exchange of the great gesture. I feel so proud of myself for trying this out. (Spare my innocence, I just can't help but giggle at this moment. Hihi.)

Last week, I got an e-mail from the fab BDJ team that I need to update my profile for a chance to win an item. So, I did the update hoping to get something in return just like a normal bella would hope for. God heard my wishful thinking and little did I know that the package would even arrive within that same week. Awesome, right?

Around 8AM, I heard my phone ringing. Thinking it was just my alarm, I pressed the side button to knock it off but it won't work. That's when it registered to my brain that its a call. Haha. A voice of a man was looking to speak to me verifying my name and the exact location of my address. But why? He said, "may package po kayo ma'am." And my reaction ---»» {O_O} really?

Unfortunately, he ended the call without me knowing who it came from. I asked my mom to receive it in my behalf since I need to be somewhere and I was excited. Well, who wouldn't be? When I got home after my 3 days stay-cation, I immediately asked my mom for the package and tore the plastic stuffs. OMG! I got a free beautiful gift pack from OLAY!

Here's the epic shot I took out of my excitement. Basta ko na lang kinunan, di na pinag-isipan.

Yey! Its done. Shoooort, isn't it? lol

See how Olay and BDJ teamed up to surprise me and to those bellas who got the items too? I love surprises! Its a wonderful feeling, isn't it? Coz imagine, I haven't tried the product yet but the journey of how I got it made me feel so beautiful from the inside. Sa susunod na yung outside. LOL. Nakakahaba ng hair.

So to @OlayPhilippines and @BDJbuzz, I would like to say THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY PINKISH HEART for making me feel at my best beautiful, for surprising me! I even considered it as my early birthday gift.

So bellas! See you on my next blog post where I will do the product review for Olay. I hope you can drop by too. Cheers!

One Proud Bella,         Aya
