APC x iWhite Korea Facial Creams Giveaway


"Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty
never grows old."
-Franz Kafka



"We hate makeup streaks and unevenly applied foundation because for us ladies, we all want our makeup to look perfect on us!

This is where makeup base comes into the picture. For those who still don’t know what it is, a makeup base allows your makeup to be applied more smoothly and last longer. And this is just exactly what our iWhite Korea Facial Cream does (aside from its sunscreen and whitening capabilities).


I just copied those from  iWhite Korea's Facebook Page. Hahaha. #Tamad
I felt so happy that they got satisfied about my product review that they even shared it to their followers.
Simple happiness I felt from being a blogger. Haha. I really don't know what kind of blogger I am, but since they already classified me as a Lifestyle Blogger, then, I'm now a Lifestyle Blogger. HAHAHA

Again,  iWhite Korea is sponsoring us for another giveaway!!!
Hooraaay!!!


The winner will get:
Two (2) tubes of iWhite Korea Facial Cream,
Three (3) iWhite Korea Facial Cream sachets,
and 3 iWhite Korea Aqua Moisturizing Creams.

To join, just follow the Rafflecopter widget below.


Deadline of entries is on September 1, 2013. The winner will be chosen via rafflecopter and announced on our Facebook and Twitter accounts on the following day. 

This contest is open to Philippine residents only. Winners must be willing to pick up their prize or else, they have to handle the shipping fee.

Thank you so much iWhite Korea for sponsoring this giveaway! :)

Product Review: iWhite Korea Facial Cream

iWhite Korea has been our sponsor for months now. We also have other sponsors but they are the only one who always give us freebies. Yes, we're happy whenever we have sponsorship proposals, they're for you, Giveaway Lovers, but we are happier when we also get freebies for ourselves. So thank you so much iWhite Korea for supporting us, even though we're new in the blogsphere, you still believe in us. :)

Enough with this drama, haha, again, we've been doing product reviews about iWhite Korea products, if you haven't read them, these are the links:


Now, I'm going to review about their facial cream.

iWhite Korea Skin Whitening Vita Facial Cream












Price:
P 20.00 ($ 0.48) for the .35 fl oz (10ml) sachet
P 169.00 ($ 4.02) for the 2.29 fl oz (65ml) tube


See, it's affordable. If you're a cheapskate like me, you will love this 'cause it is really a good product yet affordable. You can just buy the sachet which, I think, will last for one week, still depends on how often and how much you use it. The scent is still the same. Maybe, that scent will be iWhite Korea's trademark. Haha.





Pro's

I like the texture of the cream. It is not sticky.

It is not greasy and feels light on my skin.

It instantly whitens my skin.

A good make-up base. (I used this as my make-up base when I attended

the Philippine Fashion Week.)

It uses bio-nano-technology, thus, it does not clog pores.

Affordable.


Con's

I usually use facial creams with SPF 30. This cream has SPF 15.

I don't think that this will be a good make-up base for girls with

darker complexion. (Comments please.)



Rate:
9/10

But still, I love this facial cream!!!! Well-recommended! :)

Product Review: A Bonné Yogurt Milk Cream Soap






"Wonder product for a white , radiant and firming skin enriched with Milk Protein, Yogurt and Co Q10. Perfectly cleanse skin surface and pore leaving a sensation of firm, smooth and flexible skin. It restorea elasticity and lifting to
skin. Your skin tone will become lightened with a smooth and luminous look."


Direction: Clean and nourish your face and body by gently rubbing the soap covered with delicate foam, then rinse off. Your skin will absorb the protein extracts and will be cleansed, nourished and moisturized. After daily use, your skin will have a radiant glow and its tone gradually and naturally lightened.


Packaging: It is packed in a pink and white box. The packing is complete with details and according to it, the soap is manufactured in Thailand. I like the packaging because the box shimmers. Haha. The soap weighs 90 grams as packed.


Price: P 75.00 ($ 1.84) Based on Watson's


The details on the box says so many promises such as "extra moisturizing", "whitening and firming", etc. Let's see if those promises were true based on my personal experience with the soap.



Yogurt Milk Cream Soap....... this will surely make my skin softer, that's what I thought of instantly. Unlike Dove, which is also a cream soap, it is not greasy. Its scent is like yogurt, sweet.

I used the soap whenever I took a bath in the morning and at night. I won't recommend you to lather it for more that 2 mins because it may 'cause itchiness on your skin, just like what happened to me. Hahaha.


Let's check if it was able to fulfill its promises......


Cleanse. Yes! I can feel it everytime i use the soap.

Smooth and Flexible Skin...... yes!!!!

Whitening and Firming...... My skin tone lightened.

Extra Moisturizing...... If you'll observe, in all my reviews, I don't use lotion/moisturizer whenever I review a product, so that I will know if it can really moisturize, and with this product............ check!


Overall, I will recommend this product to all of you!


Rate: 9/10

A Bonné Facial Foam 7 Day Skin Challenge



Can you guess what this pouch contains? Hmmmm.


Yes, it is contains facial foam and cream soap from A Bonné!

I won this item from www.pinayontheloose.com, 
and here I am, making my review about the facial foam. :)










Packaging: It is packed in a tube, 90 grams as packed.


Price: The last time I checked the Gateway Branch of Watsons, this product is not yet available.





My verdict:

First, the packaging is good! So handy and perfect for travel kikays. For the scent, hmmmmm....... I love it! It smells like yogurt, sweet, tasty, divine! Lol

I got really curious with this facial foam because it's my first time to see such product with tomato extract. Haha. I don't usually use facial foams eh!


Yes, I'm satisfied with its scent but how about those "active ingredients", are they really active?
Milk Protein

Yes, I agree that it can moisturize the skin. It gave me a softer and smoother skin. And I really love it!


Nanowhite Glutathione & Kojic

Last week of March, a super duper kadiri viruS inflicted me and left me scars on my body. Yes, the chickenpox virus is the reason why I have scars on my face. But after I used this facial foam, the scars lightened.
And my favorite, the Tomato Extract, yes, I believe that it is really effective in making my skin softer and smoother.

I only have some personal suggestions:

1. I want a facial foam that has micro-beads. So that at the same time, it will become a facial scrub.

2. I don't know if this product is available in sachets, but it is much better if it is so that cheapskate users can try this.



So here's the comparison:

Sorry for my eyebrows. Haha. My face actually lightened and looks smoother.
Overall, I recommend this facial foam to all of my readers!

My 7-Day Experience with iWhite Korea

Last March 8, a package from iWhite Korea came in our house. I was so excited 'cause it was my first time to receive such gifts from a sponsor. Haha.

iWhite Korea products is very familiar to me since I've been seeing their products in many establishments. Since then I've been planning to buy their products and as a wise consumer, I first read product reviews before buying.

Lucky enough that I was one of the chosen bloggers who were given such freebies, yehey! So here's my 7 day experience with iWhite Korea products.....




GlutaBerry White Soap



“iWhite Korea GlutaBerry White Soap is formulated with natural antioxidants and skin lightening agents that protect skin against cellular damage and premature aging and giving it a healthy and fair complexion."

Active Ingredients:

Glutathione – essential body chemical that acts as a natural antioxidants and detoxifying agent that protects your skin from premature aging giving it a whiter and more radiant complexion.

Mulberry extract – from the root of white mulberry with natural lightening agent that inhibits melanin production for an even-toned complexion.

Kojic acid – whitens your skin and prevents acne-causing bacteria, making skin forever smooth.

Vitamin E – protects your skin from free radicals for a younger looking skin.

Price: P 89.00 ($ 2.18)

Net weight: 90 grams

I used the soap as my all over body soap and let it stay for 2 minutes. I really enjoy lathering because of its foam and unlike other whitening soaps, it is not itchy on my skin though it contains kojic acid. I really love its floral scent, so mild and refreshing! I can say made my skin smoother. Actually, I do not need to apply lotion when I'm using this soap.


Whitening Pack and Nose Pack


"iWhite Whitening Pack instantly removes dead skin, deep-seated dirt and impurities to reveal a radiant, glowing, younger-looking skin
Especially formulated with Mulberry Extract that whitens dark skin and evens out discolorations, Panax Ginseng Root Extract that revitalizes and improves skin health and Vitamins A, C, E and B5 to prevent premature aging."

Active Ingredients:
Mulberry Root Extract, Aloe Vera Leaf Extract and Panax Ginseng Extract
Price:
   Sachet (8g) - P 20.00 ($ 0.49)
   Tube (95g) - P 199.00 ($ 4.88)



"It is a solution that is effective in removing whiteheads and blackheads and eliminates deep-seated dirt, excess oil and other impurities. It minimizes pores and excess oil on the nose."


Active ingredients: Mulberry Root Extract, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Aloe Vera Leaf Extract, Viatmins A, C, E.


Price:
   Sachet (3.5g) - P 17.00 ($ 0.42)
   Tube (50g) - P 189.00 ($ 4.63)


I used this 4 times during this 7 day experience. According to the instructions, you can use it 2-4 times a week. The whitening pack is good for 3 uses while the nose pack is, I think, for 6 uses. My sachet is not yet empty though I already used it for 4 days. The scent is okay.





At first, I had a hard time applying the cream 'cause I don't know how thick it should be, plus it is sticky and dries quite fast.




Haha. This is me with the mask! :D
I can't smile!  LOL





While it's on my face, I felt a slight cooling effect which I find so relaxing.

Love it!

I let it stay for 15 mins, just like what it says in the instructions.





After peeling it off, my skin feels a little bit itchy. Maybe because I didn't pulled it gently. Haha. Okay my fault!


This is the mask! IKR, looks like a halloween mask! HAHA Gross!
I feel that my pores were cleansed and my skin became softer, cleaner and tighter. But honestly, I think it wasn't able to remove any blackheads or whiteheads. What I love about it is that it really relaxed my skin.

Aqua Moisturizing Cream




"A water-base moisturizer refined by Bio-Nanotechnology, making it more potent, giving it a more radiant and fair complexion.

It revitalizes and improves skin condition, protects skin against cellular damage and premature aging, maintains elasticity and firmness of the skin and leaves a cool and refreshing feeling. iWhite Aqua Moistruzing Cream is ideal for all skin types."

Active ingredients: 

Mulberry root extract - contains arbutin which inhibits melanin production; soothing even in high concentrations; reduces uneven skin tone and appearance of dark spots; helps in cell regeneration

Panax ginseng root extract - reduces wrinkles and refines skin; promotes skin regeneration; helps remove scars

Green tea - contains vitamins for skin regeneration, strengthening and repair; contains anti-bacterial agents that help prevent acne formation


Price:

   Sachet (6g) - P 20.00 ($ 0.49)

   Tube (50g) - P 169.00 ($ 4.14)

I used it twice a day, after bath and before going to bed. This moisturizer really caught my eyes! Why? Because it is water-based!


















Awhile ago I said that the mask made my skin itchy, but when I applied the Aqua Moisturizing Cream, the itchiness was gone. Maybe that's why they're perfect for each other.

I like its mild scent and the cool feeling. Unlike other creams, it is not greasy, oily and sticky, but still, it was able to moisturize my skin. And that's the reason why I love it!



Asking if this set is effective?


My skin became brighter and even toned. The scars lightened and my acne lessened.

Plus:
The price is very affordable.
It is effective. Yes!
It is easy to purchase (available in Mercury and Watsons).

Rate: 9/10

and YES, I am willing to purchase again, and I also want to try their other products, the facial wash and cream. :)
