Pan!

I have a ton of products that I want to finish and in the past two weeks, I managed to finish the ones in the photo above. I already mentioned in a previous post that I like the Belo lotion. I use it not for its whitening properties (which, by the way, I’m not sure is effective because I don’t really care) but because it’s non-greasy and it gets absorbed by my skin fast. I think I use up a big bottle in 2-3 weeks. The next bottle is the old Ellana brush cleaner. This is bigger than the new version. This is my favorite brush cleaner as it is very effective and it smells nice. It’s also very expensive in my opinion. The next bottle is the Watsons Lavender Foot Scrub. I don’t want to spend a lot on foot products but I still want to take care of my dry feet so I use this. This is a great product. It’s affordable and effective. I think it took 2-3 months for me to finish this bottle. Lastly, the Watsons Sakura Bella Body Scrub. Yes, I’m a huge fan of Watsons brand product...

I didn’t feel like words and photos would justify my preference (you'll see later on what that is) so I made a short video for this post. Notes: 1. I used my old school digicam for this video so I apologize if it sometimes gets blurry. 2. I was holding the camera with my right hand so only my left hand was doing the actual demo. I am right-handed. 3. I used my laptop table as I did this in bed. I just wanted to say that. LOL. 4. That weird sound is the fan. Beauty Bar Brush Cleaner VS Ellana Brush Cleaner For the second method, if you can remember, the brush still has some of the Ellana Brush Cleaner on it that’s why the Beauty Bar clean...
