Dove Shower Cream

dove shower cream, bitsandtreats

I have terribly dry skin and it’s getting worse. My doctor said I’m dehydrated so aside from the 3 pitchers of water I drink everyday (roughly equivalent to 3 liters), I need to go on a Gatorade diet. Aside from that, I need to use special products for my skin such as this one.

If you remember, my doctor told me to use Dove unscented beauty bars but I couldn’t find them here so I asked my SIL in Singapore if they have it there. She scoured the groceries and found this. It’s not unscented though but I totally love the smell! This is better than the bar. Or maybe I’m just biased because I really don’t like soap bars…

Anyway, this is cream-based so a little goes a long way. I usually use 2 pumps on my bath lily and lather away. The scent does not linger on my skin but the moisturizing effects linger a bit longer. I also mentioned in a previous post that I’m skipping lotion on really hot days and this shower cream is a savior. My skin still looks terrible without lotion but at least it does not itch,thanks in part to this shower cream.

This is a huge bottle and it will probably last me a couple of months or more. I plan to hoard these when I go there. I stopped hoarding body washes, well because, I can’t really go out shopping. Plus there’s the fact that I can no longer use just any kind of body wash. Pfffttt….

*Special thanks to my SIL!*

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...

Soft Luxe Travels: Day 1 - The Journey to Vigan Part 1

In this post, we will start our journey to Vigan! The Night Before After packing our things, I did a few things for myself to help me relax and decompress so that I can sleep. I'm a night owl and not used to waking up early nor sleeping early, so I have to be strategic.  I painted my nails that night after all my chores, so that the nail polish wouldn't chip.  However, I forgot that I needed to make pressed sandwiches for our breakfast the following day!  Because really, what’s a road trip mom without freshly painted nails and a last-minute kitchen hustle? 😂 So, I had to do a lot of washing and hoped for the best that my nail polish will not chip! Luncheon meat, eggs, Kewpie Trust me, it tastes better than it sounds at 11 PM while trying not to chip your polish. That night, we also tried the Ube Halaya from Amira's. This was from our trip to Tagaytay . I'll try to make a review of this on my food blog . With everything prepped, I finally let myself drift off—half excit...

Holiday State of Mind

  Sometimes, a quick escape is all it takes to reset the spirit. Tagaytay always gives me that holiday state of mind… Even a short drive can feel like a retreat when your heart is ready to embrace rest. My son successfully finished his recital last Sunday and as a reward, my sister treated us to Tagaytay yesterday.  Getting Ready for the Trip I decided to use my BYS Golden Hour Palette for today's look. Makeup, for me, is part of the ritual—it sets the tone that today is special. Here are the swatches: From top to bottom: Polaroid, Candid, Aperture, In Focus, Portrait, Panoramic In Focus is slightly wet, like something between a liquid and cream eyeshadow. The color is gorgeous! I love Panoramic, too! Polaroid is a bit chalky and not as pigmented as the shadows in the Queen Bee Palette.  Here are the face shades: Highlighter: Illumination Contour: Ambiance I haven't tried Illumination yet, only Ambiance. I used it on top of my BYS Bronzer. It's a buildable powder, a littl...
