✨ Staycation Finds: UNICAT Travel Body Wash & Shower Gel Review

After we got back to Manila from Baguio, we had a staycation in one of our favorite hotels. 

Let's start this staycation with a quick product review. 


During our recent staycation, I brought along two adorable travel-sized body cleansers from UNICAT — a charming brand I picked up from KKV. They're easy to pack, fun to use, and just too cute to ignore!

🧴 UNICAT Sulfur Purifying Body Wash


UNICAT Sulfur Purifying Body Wash



(黃色瓶身)

Label Translation:

淨膚亮白: Purifies and brightens the skin

水潤保濕: Moisturizing hydration

清爽留香: Fresh lingering scent

This one has a very faint rotten egg smell, most likely from the sulfur — it’s not strong, but you’ll notice it if you’re sensitive to scents. They tried to mask it with a sweet scent, but I can still smell it.  It’s a light yellow gel with no glitter or scent notes that really stand out. Performance-wise, it cleanses well and doesn’t dry out the skin, but the smell alone makes me shy away from this product. 


🍓 UNICAT Sparkling Shower Gel (Peach White Tea Scent)

UNICAT Sparkling Shower Gel (Peach White Tea Scent)


(粉紅色瓶身)

Label Translation:

蜜桃白茶香: Peach White Tea Fragrance

淨膚留香: Deep-cleansing, leaves fragrance

深層保濕: Deep moisture

溫和沖洗: Gentle rinse

This pink glittery gel stole my heart. The Peach White Tea scent is refreshing, sweet, and calming — just the kind of vibe I love during self-care moments. The glitter inside makes it extra fun to use, but don’t worry: the shimmer disappears once rinsed off. It doesn't cling to your skin. And since it’s gentle and hydrating, it left my skin soft and fresh without any irritation.

✈️ Why I Love Travel Sizes

Travel-sized bottles like these are not just easy to pack — they’re also perfect for trying new products without committing to full sizes. That’s a huge win for those of us who are always curious to test what’s out there and for us who have very sensitive skin. Plus, these are such affordable luxuries to add a little sparkle (literally!) to your travel routine.

💭 Will I Repurchase?

Maybe — I’d definitely go for the pink one again. But not just yet. KKV has so many body washes I still want to try, so I’ll keep exploring for now. 😊

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...
