Updates and Changes

        Hello, hello! I'm so glad to be back! No, I did not go on a vacation, but my allergies acted up after sun exposure during the Kadayawan and I was puffy and itchy all the way up to my ears and eyelids. I had to sleep in a couple of days, for the antihistamines to do their wonders against the itch, but my skin is still trying to recover. Good thing, a friend visited me and gave me a sample jar of her all-natural skin care products from Australia. We had been talking about it for some time and this time, she had finally taken the plunge, and went into business selling these products that she so loved.

SKIN CARE AND ALERGIES

       Anyway, to alleviate the itch, I lathered up with sulfur soap and dried my skin with a towel and immediately applied her Centella Gel  ( extract from Centella asiatica ) on my face, neck, arms, thighs and legs. It was light and non-sticky and yes, very soothing. Seconds later, I completely forgot I had allergies, and spent the rest of the day chatting with her. The next couple of days, I repeated the process twice a day and there is a marked improvement in my skin, the puffiness is gone, so has the thickened, scaly skin that formed. She laughed when I said that I felt like the crinkle cookie because smiling and speaking made me feel my skin was cracking up due to the thick scale that formed on my skin as a result of the allergy. All that is gone now, and I have observed a softer, moisturized feel on my skin. Finally, my skin is on its way to full recovery. Question is, has she found a convert to natural skin care in me? The answer is, YES! I actually tried to pluck stray eyebrow hairs so I could prove how Centella gel can soothe after plucking and shaving, and yes, though there was a temporary sting on contact, I completely forgot my eyelid areas were supposed to be sore for one whole day from plucking. I'm impressed.

ACNE AND DENGUE
       

Acne

         I'm so impressed, I also let my 18 year old daughter try the product on her acne. After cleansing, she smoothed tiny amounts on her acne and all over her face. I really did not expect much because, my daughter has probably tried every natural treatment under the sun and within the internet. This time, her cystic acne dried up quickly, forming a dark, dry, scaly bump, and then falling off without a scar. Now, for an all-natural product, THAT is awesome. Don't you think? So, here's what I'm thinking; I'm planning to purchase a domain name and create a website to market and distribute these all-natural skincare products from Australia and see where it goes. I have been going the natural route for years and it is exciting to see that already, natural products have overtaken some of the more expensive, branded products in effectivity and reliability. Am also thinking of marketing some of my trusted natural products for health and vitality. Because, you see, though Dengue, a deadly mosquito borne disease has ravaged my country for the last five years, and victimized almost every one of my neighbors, NOT ONE of my family members have ever fallen victim. Five years, and no Dengue, not once,  is quite a feat in my country. Thanks to high-quality, and delicious, natural products which I will share with you really soon. However, if you cannot wait, or you know someone who needs help now, message me in Facebook, and I will respond to your query.

WEIGHT AND INCH LOSS

Don't you just love this inspiration?

        I also lost 2 kilos, roughly 5 pounds and two inches on my waist and hips, HOORAY! For the very first time since high school, my hips is 37 inches, YAY! You see, I have battled with the bulge in high school, went as far as having a 40 inch waistline after graduation, UGH! But, now, I am quite happy with my figure at 43. I have a very simple work-out routine, mainly targeting problem areas. Exercise moves that are so basic, so elementary, it might bore you. BUT! I have a breathing technique which multiplies the slimming effect some gazillion times over, so you can lose 2 inches or more in two weeks or less. How's that for a mom of 3?  I know I am camera-shy, that's why I haven't posted a profile picture even to this day, BUT! I am willing to have shots of me taken while doing my exercise routine so you can copy them, hopefully this week, how's that? I actually drafted that exercise post, I just needed the pics to illustrate, so am keeping my fingers crossed. Do not expect a hardcore abs type of a person, though,  I'm just happy to be slim and fit for now. hope this week turns out great for you and me guys!
