Grooming Essentials on SALE on Shopee's NIVEA MEN Brand Day!

Thursday, August 12, 2021

 


We've always thought about how to take care of our skin during the pandemic. That goes to say, we do care about how we look because even those HD videos over video conferencing software. Let's face it, men have different skin conditions as women. For most of it, it's because of Androgen or the male hormone which renders our skin thicker than those of women. So you've got to take good care of it.

Nivea for men has some on their line that would be able to do that. Grooming essentials? Take Nivea for Men Cool Kick Spray for instance, it can get you 48 hour protection from sweat and odor plus a -10C icy cool feeling when you spray it on, you'll feel fresh all day because of it. Aside from that, you can also clean up with Nivea for men Whitening Acne Oil Control Scrub to reduce those dark spots caused by acne. It also lowers oil and removes dead skin cells so you're clean as a whisk. If you need skin nourishment, I believe in moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. It's why they have Nivea for Men Creme to make sure your skin doesn't dry out. It's not sticky and also gets absorbed by the skin quite fast. Those dry spots won't be there anymore if you're having trouble with that. You'll feel smooth all over when you do it the right way, so check yourself all over and see what needs it most. I apply mine in most of my extremities, face, hands, feet.

If you want to see what fits you, go to Shopee's official Nivea store here. You can also purchase the Cool Kick Spray here, the Acne Oil Control Scrub here and the Creme here. They've got a huge spot on Shopee's Nivea Brand Day wherein they'll offer vouchers, crazy discounts and free shipping on the platform. Now don't tell me I didn't tell you about it! It starts today!

Getting Rid of Acne: Try SkinTrends!

Sunday, February 08, 2015




We all have skin problems during puberty, or our lifetime. Some less, some more seen but overall, we get to that one point when you just don't want to see it anymore especially when you need to go out to study or work. You get to break that normalcy because if you've got acne, you'll be ridiculed, looked upon and worse, treated like a freak coming out of a laboratory. I've met Dr. Herbia Joy Gonzales-Mongcal a couple of months ago and she did an excellent job answering questions about how the simple problem of pimples can be resolved by regular, time tested procedures she has been doing in clinics for a throng of her clientele.

Skintrends was started years ago by Dr. Joy in the city of Sta. Rosa, Laguna. It was called HCG Face and Body Clinic then and was a haven for wanted skin services at an affordable and reasonable cost. With further studies, training, and technology by her put in on the clinic, Dr. Joy got more clients from the southern Metro Manila area. The clamor to have more clinics that would be also closer to other cities became stronger and so they expanded branches to accommodate those who need the same level of service and quality products that would solve the real undeniable problem of acne. Her efforts were evidently bearing fruit because after her old clients saw how successful their treatments were, they had the next generation to also try their clinic later on. The sons, daughters, friends and family all became accustomed to what Skintrends provided these past few years, They heavily relied on word of mouth and since they've opened up a couple of more clinics nearby, they wanted more people to benefit from what they have inside their clinics. 

When I saw the list of their services, I thought it was going to be a little expensive, but no. I didn't even see anything ridiculously priced at all. Then they go on and told us that we could individually treat our readers too.




If you print this out and show it to them in their clinics, you'll get 100 pesos off your services (one voucher per day/transaction only). I think I even saw a 200++ basic facial on the list, now with this, you can get that same procedure at half the cost! Isn't that crazy? I know. Anyway, if you're still having problems with pimples, acnes or just plain want to get something done on your skin, try out SkinTrends in their branches at Sta. Rosa Laguna, Eastwood City, SM Fairview, Ali Mall, Festival Supermall in Alabang, and Pacific Century Tower in Quezon City. She's got strict training done on all her people so you won't be sorry if you avail their services. Aside from that, she know what she's doing and even if I did my research about it, she accommodates questions from people as crazy as me. So think about it, would you not want to treat yourself today? Print the image above and enjoy your time there... it'll be worth it especially if you're still suffering from acne. :)

One Pampering Day at Ellen's Aesthetic Centre

Friday, August 15, 2014


Ellen's in Timog Avenue corner Tomas Morato
It's been a while since I had a facial as I have issues of other people touching my skin. Believe it or not, this is my second facial... in my entire life. I usually just do it myself, at home and I think I do a pretty good job at it. Yes I am that vain. Thing is, I might not be completely getting it cleaned so I did the next best thing by visiting Ellen's in Timog Avenue corner Tomas Morato in Quezon City. Ms. Ellen was there and she got me immediately going up her skin center, laid on the beds and be made up by one of their experts. I was in for a nice facial. (Warning: Selfie Heavy!)


I always take care of my face and try to maintain a less oily T Zone since that's my problem. Gone were the times of puberty and I'm so glad I got over that phase of acne because of hormones during high school (which happened a few years ago). I also learned the art of taking care of my skin early on. How? One rule, moisturize, moisturize and moisturize. First thing they did there is the same thing, they put moisturizers first.


Then a short facial massage ensued distributing that same moisturizer on my face. It felt good already.


Then they got this steam machine directed to my face prolly to open my pores. That's when they started to take everything off my skin, I think they pricked small ones and got white heads excavated like EDSA. The lady assigned to me said I didn't have much on my face  (prolly because I do things like these at home) but I felt she did take a lot of it out of my skin. She also noticed that I might have to get some small warts coiterized but I begged off because they say the marks might last a week and I didn't wanna bear it. They looked at my skin closely and even gave me a mirror so they could point at it (I was clueless).


After the cleaning, I got moisturized again and they prepared to close my pores with something cold in the end.


They whipped out a Mint Tea mask on my skin which felt like small stings on those parts which they opened up on my face earlier. It felt cold too so it closed my pores after the procedure.


Then I spent about 10-15 minutes and almost dozed off with that mask on my face. She continued to put on dabs of cream and gently massaged it in again which made my face glow after that facial. It felt so clean afterwards and I was so glad Ms. Ellen Lising got me taken cared of in her facial care center. The attendants were surely trained and meticulous in what they were doing and must say I was totally satisfied with the work they've done on my face. I washed it before I slept and woke up super refreshed after having them do that. Totally worth the visit!


Thank you Ms. Ellen and to your very kind people who never hesitated to answer my questions while I was getting my facial! Super thanks! 

Oh and I heard they just opened their new branches at Unit 201 Oceana Commercial Complex in Mc Arthur Highway, Balibago Angeles City (Phone Number (045-3223260/0917-8151630) and at 270 Unit 6 Samson Road, Caloocan City (Phone Number 09272987136) so call them if you want to set an appointment or if you want anything done (they've got a ton of services). Again, they are nice people so if you have time please drop by any of their establishments near you!

Flawless: Launches Flaunt, New Website and Social Media Channels

Tuesday, October 23, 2012


When I hear Flawless, I usually shy away from it because believe it or not I don't go to facial centers and I find it too girly to do so. Men I think for most of the time are low maintenance. Even though it doesn't show that I need one, it's haunting me for the longest time that I even consider that good looking ones like me kinda need help too (hehe). Finding reputable ones like Flawless for my first consultation is nothing but the right choice. The doctor was IN!


She took time explaining the common skin problems and tried to analyze what our skin conditions were too. We were probably like smorgasbord,  but the good thing is they give us the necessary advise on how to actually choose the product that would be the perfect match for our skin. I had so many questions but Doctor Cu gamely answered them for me. I had normal T zone problems just like any guy, but I don't use sunblock. She said I should always make it a habit to do so because unprotected skin would just age fast and get damaged by UV rays. I know it was something I should do but I didn't pay attention to it that much because people have been noticing I look young for my age. But I think she's got a point that if I take care of it, I would have looked better than what I do now. Thanks for that Doc! =)



Their facilities were at par with world standards. You can also opt for the more private rooms if you don't want everybody to see you get overhauled. Price points are way cheaper than normal aesthetic centers but they never compromise quality. That's exactly what they wanted to be, affordable yet you get the best services and products on this side of the world.

If you've got a certain type of skin, they have the right product for you. Whether you are Oily, Acne prone, Dry, etc. they have it on stock in all their stores. Check this out!


They also have some international brands on their shelves!


Both ISKIN and Cosmelan are brands that have been used by stars here and abroad. They've got them all at FLAWLESS and they whispered to me some of the names :) ahh so that's why!


I thought I saw the frontman of the internationally acclaimed group Simply Red but he didn't sing this time. He's the gorgeous looking Business Manager Drew Mendoza who told us about their operations in the Philippines. He also mentioned why Flawless relaunched their website to something more interactive, sleeker and cleaner now.



The menu's easier to navigate, the sub menus are also organized to skin conditions and there's also the online store so you can probably order if you don't have a Flawless branch near you. They ship in more places worldwide so make sure you come visit if you want your skin be a tad better; or if you don't have it yet!


Marketing Manager Ms. Pat Mendoza says Flawless knows that the market needs avenues to approach an establishment like them. They know the importance of social media so they had all of them covered. Saying this is their NEW VOICE! They extended their reach and veer away from the usual old style advertising. Now it's more personal and they find more gain interacting with their customers real time.

To launch their new E-Magazine, they got Enzo Pineda that evening too! Gorgeous and looking dapper in his outfit he took time to say hi to everyone that evening. Girls, Ladies, secure your panties.


Enzo Pineda had several favorite treatments and products with Flawless, that's why he's stayed a very good endorser for the clinic. He's got nothing but good words with them and the people behind it.

And look who dropped by who also covered the event! Equally Flawless Icy Mendoza.


Their office was really posh and nice too. A great place to train aesthetics professionals (which lasts 90 days) the greatest facilities and products, you can't go wrong with Flawless and they've showed that in a grand way. Congratulations to Flawless, Flaunt and to everyone who made this event possible. I really enjoyed having my skin checked, not as normal as other people might say but it was definitely good for me!
