Anti-Acne Buddies

One of a girl's common enemies are those stubborn pimples, and I can relate to that. These past few years, I started having a pimple breakout. It made me really uneasy and conscious because i'm not the type who usually wears make up, and my mom said concealing it would do no good.

I tried Garnier's Anti-Imperfection cooling roll on since I've been using their line for some time already.

It works in just several days of usage. You just have to put it in the affected area as many times as possible for faster results. The roll-on packaging makes it easier to apply (less messy and you have to control on how much to apply.) One of its ingredients is Salycyclic Acid which is known to cure pimples.

Another product I've tried is Celeteque's Acne Solution gels. I got it as a freebie from BDJ Social, and I've heard good feed backs from it so I decided to give it a shot. This one also works as good as Garnier, you just have to put as much as possible.

Having a sensitive skin, these two products doesn't show any side effects. And if you apply them, they don't feel that heavy and you can wear them under powder/make up. You can also use them when you're outside, since they don't look obvious that much when applied.

I highly recommend these two products to those who have acne problems like me. They also come in reasonable prices plus their contents don't run out that fast

BDJ Box Beauty Social + Garnier's Newest Product

Yesterday was a blast! Even though the schedule is kinda hectic, we found time to attend this and we're not disappointed. Not only it was fun, it's also educational (ugh, it sounded like a student. Hahaha). BDJ Box Beauty Social Primp and Prettify has actually taught me a lot of things.

Several partner brands participated in the event. Some brands like Revlon, Cover Girl, Too Cool For School And Max Factor offered Make Up Sessions. Yves Rocher, Celeteque and Shiseido on the other hand conducts free skin consultations. Goody, Cure, Ralph Lauren, Lucido-L and Bifeste gave those who lined up some freebies. Also, Garnier unveiled their newest product which I'll be showing later. Here's a map of the area:

They have a total of eight talks and it was hosted by miss Tracy Abad.

Every talks is full since they allow walk ins.

I've joined (1) GET READY WITH THE BDJ BOX BEAUTY MINISTRY, (2) REFRESHINGLY GORGEOUS WITH GEORGINA WILSON, (3) SIGNATURE SCENTS WITH RALPH LAUREN, and (4) EXPRESS YOURSELF WITH MAYBELLINE.

My favorite talk would be the very first since I've learned many things from them. It's also fun to listen to them since it's just like you're asking a personal friend for a help and advice, and they also suggests alternatives  which are pocket friendly.

While waiting for the next talks, you can visit the booths which offers some free services. Me and my friends tried Too Cool For School's free make up.

I love their BB Creams! It doesn't feel sticky and heavy, as if it's barely there. Too Cool For School has just started their venture here in the Philippines, and their also from Korea. Although the price is kinda expensive compared to other brands, I think it's worth it since they're just too good! Plus, the lady assisting us is really, really nice.

And like a ritual, every participant gets a loot bag.

What's inside: Women's Health and Cosmopolitan Magazine, Too Cool For School Discount Voucher, Goody Band, Bifesta Make Up Remover, Cure,  Yves Rocher, several Celeteque products. Other products are from the booths.

Included in the loot bag is Garnier's newest product, PureActive Fruit Energy. 

It's the same with the red one, but this one comes in a fruit variant. It's a combination of Grapefruit and Pomegranate. I've been using Garnier products for some time now, from facial wash, to toner, to creams, to roll on. Yes, i'm a fan of it. And now they're offering it in a new fruity variant, which is citrus. I love citrusy scents because their smell is energizing ( I actually got my Ralph Lauren sample in citrus scent even without smelling it). A full size (maybe the hundred ml) retails for Php 150.00 which will be out in the market this coming October.

The next event would be the BDJ Fair (unveiling of the new planner, yay!) which will be held on October 13, 2013 at SM Mall of Asia. Visit their Facebook Page for more updates. See you there, Bellas!
