The Real Queen Of Beauty Products: Whitening

"You don't have to focus on your imperfections..... You just have to love yourself." - Sebastian Castro

What a great quote, right?! Aha! Uh-Oh! Who is Sebastian Castro?! Oh okay, I'll tell you who he is. So, before doing this new entry I decided to watch a live stream of Sebastian Castro over the internet.

Live stream last August 04, 2012

Well, it's my first time to watch his live stream and I am so "kilig" and all while he is speaking Tagalog. Oh gaaah! He sounds like Sam Milby with his "Weh??? Di nga???" line. Haha! I can say that he is such a nice guy! Oh, before I forgot, he is a model and he don't have any Filipino blood but after 8 months of staying here in the Philippines, he learned how to speak our Filipino language! Cool yeah! He is in United States right now and he is doing an Independent film. So cool! Haha! So to cut the story short, someone asked him if he has any imperfections and he quickly answered, "You don't have to focus on your imperfections..... You just have to love yourself" and I am so impressed! He is so positive about anything and I like that! He's a good entertainer too! I so love his Teach Me How To Dougie version! Haha! And I've got 3 out of 3 shoutouts from him! How sweet is that, right? : )

Hello friends! :D

Before this, I posted a blog about some beauty secrets that everyone must know for us not to harm ourselves because like me, I know everyone wants to have a good health throughout our life and to have a fairer/whiter skin. Did you guys know that one of my obsession is to have a whiter skin like Sarah Geronimo? Hahaha! 

I'm so obsessed with her knees! Wow!

Oh I know it's impossible but who knows? Sabi nga, tiyagaan lang yan! Love yourself! And if you love yourself, you'll try anything that will help you to have what you want. Like for me, I want to have a fairer/whiter skin so as much as possible I try to drink plenty of water. Also, I see to it to at least drink one glass of milk a day. Not to eat oily foods or at least lessen it! Hahaha! And to sleep as early as 9 PM if possible and that's so challenging for me and I never tried doing that! Aigoo! Hahaha!

So earlier this morning, I went to SM Bacoor with my Mom to accompany her in Our Home store then after that I asked her if we can go to Watsons so I can buy some stuffs. You know guys whenever I go out with my Mom I'm so happy and contented because I know if I want something she'll gonna buy it, if it's really worth it! Haha! Mothers know best and I believe that! Also it's our bonding moment --- GUMALA! Haha! Here's what I bought in Watsons.....

I bought a new body scrub, a Vaseline Whitening Face Scrub and hand soap because I'm out of stock. While strolling around, I remembered what my college friend Ezekiel Bunda told me before that this Asian Secrets Whitening Body Scrub is really effective to helps you whiten your skin so I search for it and told my Mom to buy that for me. Haha! I also bought Myra Hand & Body Lotion, wala lang, I just wanna try it! Haha! So let's have a quick review about these products and what I usually use to achieve the fairer/whiter skin that I want! Want that? : )

Vaseline Men Whitening Face Scrub

I'm using this product about almost a year and I'm actually quite satisfied with it because it truly reduce and remove dark spots/blemishes that was brought by pimples. I also feel fresh after using it and some says that my face became whiter compared before and that's awesome! Haha!

Kojie-san Skin Lightening Soap

Kojie-san has an all-natural kojic acid formula that helps lighten dark spots due to acne, age spots, freckles, sun-damaged skin, and other skin pigmentation. Koji is popularly knows for its excellent whitening effects and antioxidant properties.

Review: 3 out of 5

I'm using this product for more than a month and in that short span I noticed that it really lighten dark spots brought about by pimples. Well hopefully, with my regular use of this soap, it may help the skin all over my body to be lighter too! Haha! I just noticed after using this and when I'm dry already, some parts of my body have a prickly feeling and I think it's because of the Kojic acid.

Asian Secrets Lulur Indonesian Whitening Body Scrub

It is a beauty treatment which originated from the royal palace of java, Indonesia and inspired by a ritual called Lulur. Lulur was originally intended for the bride-to-be in order to beautify, smoothen and whiten her skin before the wedding day.

The Benefits of Asian Secrets Lulur Whitening Body Scrub

• Lulur beads gently exfoliate and remove dead skin cells to smoothen and give it a radiant glow.
• Frequent usage reduces skin pigmentation and evens out skin tone by getting rid of dark patches, especially in areas prone to darkening like the elbows, knees, armpits and the area between the thighs.
• It also moisturizes and leaves skin with a light fragrant scent.

• It has Vitamin E Beads that gently burst into your skin. Vitamin E helps protect & nourish skin.
• Dimethicone & Glycerin seal in your skin's natural moisture preventing dryness.
• Helps keep your skin healthy, soft, & smooth to touch.
• Safe and effective for all skin types.
• Non-greasy & ideal for everything use.

Review: *To follow*

It's okay to try new products that says it will give you fairer/whiter skin but before purchasing any product, as I always do, read the back label first! Try also to use any product accordingly based on the direction given. Sabi nga, Wala namang mawawala kung susubukan hindi ba? : )

Hello Friends! : )

After you saw the title of this blog and after reading the some "famous fashion quotes" above, I know that you have an idea what this blog is all about, right? And you got it right! It's all about FASHION! So for you, what is "FASHION"???

Let me share to you guys what I found a while ago while searching the renowned fashion designer of the Philippines Rajo Laurel in Twitter.....

The Popstar Princess Sarah Geronimo (METRO Magazine - November 2009 Issue) and renowned Supermodel Tyra Banks (America's Next Top Model Cycle 18: British Invasion 2012) wearing the same Swarovski long sleeved gown by no other than Rajo Laurel! PINOY PRIDE! Well, I was finding some information related to fashion and the first person that came out in my mind is Sir Rajo Laurel so I searched his name in the search box on Twitter then I saw a link of his official site and I was surprised when I saw Tyra Banks' photo wearing the same gown of Sarah Geronimo in a magazine shoot! PINOY PRIDE once again! Haha! Rajo Laurel is one of my inspirations when it comes to fashion! Thumbs up!!!

For those who do not know me that well, one of my dreams is to become a successful and famous fashion designer in the world and I am a self-proclaimed "Frustrated Fashion Designer". Hahaha! I still remembered when I was in elementary, when I'm alone in the house or no one sees me in our room, I will wrap the bed sheet in my body and put some pins so it will look like a gown to me and I'll go in front of the mirror and do some poses. Hahaha! Ssshhh! That's a secret, okay?? And until now, I'm still doing it! Yay! Hahaha! I will show to you guys my first ever collection! I'm excited! Are you ready???

GOWN OR BED SHEET??! - FIRST COLLECTION

First Creation:

Second Creation:

Third Creation:

This third creation is so special to me because when I posted it in my Instagram account with Sir Rajo Laurel's Twitter account and shared it on Twitter, he noticed it and to my surprise he even retweeted it and put a comment.....

See?! I was so lucky and super happy! My gaaah! RAJO LAUREL??! So sweet! Contented! :D

Fourth Creation:

Fifth Creation:

Sixth Creation:

Seventh Creation:

Any comments regarding my creations? About what you likes/dislikes? Suggestions? Or even violent reactions? Haha! Feel free, okay??

For me, fashion or being fashionable is not only for those people who have lots of money or only to those celebrities who affords buying expensive clothes and gowns. Again, fashion is for everyone! If you really want it, you can do it! Don't be afraid to try! There are lots of opportunities out there, maybe not now but who knows? And someday, don't be surprised if you saw me in your TV screens and they will introduce me as "The Famous Fashion Designer in the Philippines". Hahaha! Sabi nga, LIBRE ANG MANGARAP! ; )

So friends, do you think I can be called "The Real Queen Of Fashion"??? :D

"My August wish is to pass/top the Nursing Licensure Examination and to have our school (De La Salle - Health Sciences Institute) a 100% passing rate." - DramaQueenSimon

How about you? What is your August wish? I hope it will come true! Just trust yourself and PRAY! --- POSITIVITY ---

Hello Friends! : )

This is my first ever blog! To tell you honestly guys, I really want to have a blog but then I'm kinda confused if I'm going to create and have one like this because actually I really don't have any idea how to start doing this thing! Thanks to my very good friend, Hearts (Dys Pacete), for the inspiration and for helping me out to start with this blog.

One of the main reasons why I really want to have a blog is to share my thoughts, interests, and my "kadaldalan" and "kalandian" to the whole world! Haha! I'm kinda addicted also in social networking like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Tumblr, and Instagram. Trivia: I only have one username in all of my accounts except in Instagram --- DramaQueenSimon. Also, I only have one displayed photo in all of my accounts except in my blog! Haha! So let me share to you guys what I usually do in my accounts.

When I woke up every morning around 8 to 9 AM, the first thing I do is to open our internet then plug my laptop (because it's battery is not functioning well) and the electric fan (I started doing this after the Nursing Licensure Examination, July 02, 2012). Then I will open my laptop and click all my accounts in different tabs in one window. Haha! So in my Facebook account.....

I like to scroll down the news feed and LIKE and LIKE and LIKE all the interesting pictures and the status of my friends or fan pages and when I feel bored doing it, I'll just close it and done! Haha! Then next thing that I will open is my Twitter account!

I really love my Twitter and I'm proud to share to you guys that I have more than 1,000 followers! How sweet is that, right?? Hahaha! In Twitter, I could share lots of information about myself, what I'm doing, some fun facts and anything that is happening under the sun! And also in Twitter, people will not know if I'm online until I post a tweet. Stalker lang ang peg! Cool yeah! I'm also free to express what I feel and I can follow my favorite celebrities and know what they are doing that time. After updating my Twitter, the next thing I will open is my YouTube account.

What I do in YouTube is just to see if my video views went up and to check for some new comments. Warning! If you will check my YouTube account don't be surprised if almost all of my videos are all about Sarah Geronimo because I'm her no. 1 fan and I'm a certified Popster by heart! I will post a blog soon about Sarah Geronimo and how obsessed am I for being her fan! Haha! Next is my Tumblr.

Well I'm not active in Tumblr but when I post photos in Instagram I also share it to my Tumblr account so in that sense it will also be updated. Lastly and one of my favorites is my Instagram (Simon Cabrera).

I love using this application in my iPod because you know, like in my Facebook, I love scrolling down and see all these amazing and sometimes breath-taking photos of some celebrities or unknown people who loves to capture these beautiful sceneries. I also got a chance to see what they are doing and knew what they likes or interests. I also enjoyed sharing photos and having some likes to my friends and also to those people that I do not know. Well, this new blog of mine is an addition to my most used social networking sites that I open everyday and will be part of my life for sure! : )

So friends, do you think I can be called "The Real Queen Of Social Networking Sites"??? :D
