Miss Universe 2010

Who do you think will be crowned Miss Universe on August 23, 2010? If you ask me, I have no idea. I love watching beauty pageant on TV, if I have time, and most of the girls presented were pretty and witty. I can only have my bets during the coronation night but as of this early, I cannot comment. Miss Universe is a prestigious beauty contest. For this year, the pageant will be held at the Mandalay Bay Events, Las Vegas. To all the candidates, good luck to you and congrats to the winner! (click picture for image source)

Happy Feet

I hope to pamper my feet, my toenails just like this. But I am so preoccupied with other things these days that I forgot to treat myself. To let you know, most of the time, I am the one painting my nails. I rarely to go to the parlor and have my nails made by an expert because if I can do it, why go there?

It's safe, affordable and I can easily erase the color if I don't like the result. But if I really wanna relax (complete with foot massage, lol) - I guess I will just let somebody else do it for me ;-)

Johnson's Baby Powder

I remember I used to have pimples at my back. I was a bit embarrassed to wear clothes with low cut or that would reveal my back. Later, I used Johnson's Baby Powder with pure cornstarch. I used it for my face at first but soon included my back. I was amazed to find out later on that those dark spots and zits on my back were totally gone! Did it really work wonders? - I thought so..

However, I stopped using it because I was too lazy to buy one. Now, I'm planning to buy plenty of it and put it on my face because I've several pimples on my face. Here's some facts made by the manufacturers on this product:

Carrot Health Soap

I've mentioned before that I have a sensitive skin but lately, I've been using carrot health soap. So far, it had helped me with my dry skin. I think what I need this time is how I will deal with the scar on my face caused by the zit.

What’s in a carrot?

Carrot essential oil is an expensive ingredient derived from pure carrot extracts. It is an unparalled source of anti-oxidants in concentration and potency, containing over 600 carotenoids known to man. It is rich in beta-carotene, as well as vitamins B, C, D and E.

Traditional aromatherapy references indicate that carrot oil has been used for the treatment of dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, wrinkles, and helped in maintaining good circulation and skin elasticity.

It improves the complexion by removing toxic build-up in the skin, stimulating collagen formation, healing wounds, and normalizing sun damage.

Monthly Visitors

I had it again! I hate my zit! I usually have it when my period is nearing. It could also happen during or after my red flag day. Darn it! But there's nothing I can do unless, of course, I'll go to my dermatologist and have it fixed. But I've no time to do that today, not even tomorrow or the coming days because I will be totally busy!

My skin is super sensitive. In fact, it's kind of oily in the inner part of my face and dry on the outer part. If ever I am going to use a soap, I have to make sure it suits to my type of skin. But no matter how careful I was, I can't control my zits! I guess it's hormonal because it usually appears on the week of my scheduled period. But this don't happen to me years ago!!! Oh well, I guess I need to do other means by sleeping early at night and try not to eat fatty foods. Any helpful suggestions out there?
