Upping My Sun Protection

After this event and my conversation with the guest dermatologist , I thought about getting really serious about my sun protection. I use a few products every now and then but this time, I was determined to make it a part of my daily regimen.  Fortunately, I went on an impromptu trip to Watsons before leaving for Singapore last year. I discovered this Sun Protect and White Sunscreen from Nivea. It's safe to apply on the face. I was really scared, I have to admit because I have super sensitive skin but turns out, I have nothing to worry about. The blue logo has been a trusted brand in my house for many years. I am so glad I tried this. It's not sticky at all. It actually feels like moisturizer, just a tad thicker in consistency. It easily gets absorbed by my skin. I'm not really sure if it gives me a white cast because I am acidic but I think you can easily cover that up with foundation or even this product .  I wanted to stock up on a few travel toiletries and...

30 Days of Watsons Beauty - Day 26

Today's product is another one from Nivea. This is the Extra White Repair. I got this facial wash because it has pore-reducing properties. It says on the tube that it's also good for people who always wear makeup. I don't always wear makeup but there are times when I wear makeup for several days in a row. I use this facial wash during those days. At night, after I remove my makeup, I use this to wash my face. In the morning, I use this facial wash to get rid of any deep seated dirt. Four more products to go!

30 Days of Watsons Beauty - Day 20

Only 10 more posts to go and this series is over! Today's product is This is a great alternative if you don't like the thick texture of the Nivea Creme . It's light and is easily absorbed by my skin. I apply this before going to bed. My skin has improved a lot since using this product. I often wake up with dry, itchy skin but not anymore. I love, love this product. 

30 Days of Watsons Beauty - Day 17

I'm sorry I've been in and out of this blog. I'm having a hard time finding a regular writing schedule as my son keeps me sooooo busy. I will finish this series though, so don't worry. Today's products are these Nivea Lip Butters I really like these lip butters. I swore never to buy these tinned lip balms again as I don't find them hygienic. However, I couldn't resist these Nivea ones. I use a Q-tip to get the product and apply it on my lips.  Another great use for this product is as a lip scrub. I apply a generous amount on my lips and wait for about 30 seconds and scrub the dry skin off with a tissue. I then apply another layer before applying lipstick. 

30 Days of Watsons Beauty - Day 15

Today, I will share with you this product: As you may already know, Nivea is one of my favorite brands. I used their whitening lotion before. I think this one is better because it's a serum. It gets easily absorbed by my skin. The scent is like the whitening lotion in this line. I like that it has UV protection and extra cell repair and protect properties. The consistency is runny as it is a serum so be careful when you squeeze the tube as you might end up with a lot of product. We are half way done with this series! Check out tomorrow's pick.

30 Days of Watsons Beauty - Day 11

Today is Day 11! I hope you stick with me until the end of this series. Today's beauty product are these Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes from Nivea. Nivea is one of my favorite brands. They just work so well with my sensitive skin. These are my favorite makeup removing wipes. It removes waterproof makeup like my Urban Decay eye liner effortlessly. It also does not make my eyes hurt nor my face itch. I always follow up with baby wipes after I use this to get rid of the oily residue. These are always out of stock in my local Watsons so I pick one up whenever I see it. If you use cleansing wipes, be sure not to skip on cleaning your face with your regular facial wash and water. This is not a substitute for your regular skin care routine.

30 Days of Watsons Beauty - Day 2

Hi, everyone! Glad you can make it again today! Welcome to Day 2 of 30 Days of Watsons Beauty. This is by no means sponsored by Watsons. I just really like spending time (and money) in that store. For Day 2, I have the classic Nivea Creme in the original blue tin. This is a very versatile cream. You can use it on your face, hands, body, feet, etc. Some people even use it on their lips. They say that it's great during winter time. However, many are turned off with its very thick texture and consistency.  As for me, I've had a love-hate relationship with this product growing up. I don't like greasy skin but on the other hand, I have uber dry skin. This product helps a lot. Today, I use it to moisturize my feet and hands before going to sleep.  I gifted one big tin to my uncle who suffers from very dry skin (like moi). I've heard no complaints.  I also found this super cute small tin from Watsons Century City. I couldn't resist. They come in d...
