Hair Care: Aromatherapy deep repairing treatment

Another product that promises to restore hair's lost beauty and shine now comes with Rose Hip Oil from France.

The new Aromatheraphy Deep Penetrating Treatment from Watsons is for intensive treatment to help reinforce hair strength and restore lost shine while deeply nourishing hair.

It contains Pro Vitamin B5, Vitamin E and Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein that penetrate into each hair strand to help replenish nutrients and repair damage from root to tip.

The product also promises to enhance hair elasticity, shine and smoothness and to leave hair with a fragrant rose scent.

This beauty product is also budget friendly.

Will it be effective for frizzy hair? We'll soon find out...!

Cocoa Butter for Stretch Marks

Cocoa butter has been known to help minimize the appearance of stretch marks.

So I recently bought Deep Moisturizing Body Lotion Cocoa Butter from Watsons to see if there's some grain of truth to this claim.


The scent is more appealing than the one I previously used, comes in a more attractive packaging and budget friendly, too!

The package claims that the body lotion is moisture-infused and deeply penetrates skin to smooth away roughness and dullness, leaving skin soft, smooth and glowing from within.

I wonder if it can really deliver on the promise.

Please share if you've tried this product before and if it really works. Any other effective pocket-friendly products you know for stretch marks? I'd love to hear about them...

Powdered milk candies, anyone?

I recently came across an interesting box of desserts containing 20 pieces of assorted powdered milk candies from House of Polvoron.

House of Polvoron Assorted Powdered Milk Candies

The candies come in four flavors - Crisped Rice, Cashew, Pili and Cookies n' Cream.

This is a favorite among kids and offers quick sugar fix even for adults' cravings.

Locally known as "polvoron", powdered milk candy is a scrumptious dessert made with powdered milk, toasted flour, sugar and melted butter. Crisped rice and special nuts may be added to this special blend for flavor.

Each serving (3 pieces) contains 7% calcium, 2% thiamine, 10% riboflavin, less than 2% niacin, 9% total fat (no transfat), 2% cholesterol, 2% sodium and 8% total carbohydrates.
