Review: In Her Element Masknegel

After over a year in lockdown, and I have accepted that my overall skin condition was better pre-pandemic, even if I wore makeup daily during that time. I thought that not wearing makeup meant less breakouts... Joke lang pala! I've been working from home for over a year and we only turn on the AC during the evening to save on electricity. Since it's so hot and humid, my skin's ALWAYS oily and more prone to breakouts.


Enter In Her Element Masknegel ~ control acne and calm skin with these following powerful ingredients:
  • Cica - or centella asiatica, for soothing skin
  • Salicylic Acid - a Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) for exfoliation
  • Tea Tree Oil - for its anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties
 


This fast-acting pimple gel was particularly helpful for me when I suddenly got a bump under my earlobe. I wasn't sure if it was a lymph node acting up (as it was a bit painful) or cystic acne, but I felt that it was the latter so I applied Maskegel twice a day on the affected spot. True enough, the painful bump which turned out to be a pimple did not push through - it flattened out instead!
 
 
I also use this on random breakout spots and comedones on my face, and it works well in drying out those pesky spots. The pimples under my eye area and the whitehead near the tip of my nose were gone in 5 days.

Price: PHP 445

Review: Belo Collagen Strawberry Smoothie

This is my kind of pink drink. 🌸 One of my best Sample Room discoveries so far is the Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Strawberry Smoothie. 🍓


Pros:
  • DELICIOUS. I can't believe it. I finally found a collagen powder that has ZERO fishy smell and taste. It tastes just like strawberry milk!
  • Smells like strawberry marshmallows at first whiff.
  • Contains 5000mg of premium marine collagen from Japan.
  • Contains 1.2g of sugar per serving, not overly sweet.
  • Dissolves in cold water.
  • Skin was indeed more glowy.
  • I felt sleepy earlier whenever I drink this. (Insomniacs, rejoice!)
  • My favorite part: My right knee was injured from overuse (from daily exercise with no rest days) and I had to take medication for my inflamed knee a few months ago. The pain is gone, but my knee started to click often. I noticed that on the days I took this collagen supplement, my knee didn't click! Not a psychological effect, I'm sure. I wasn't expecting it to have THIS effect, but I love it!
  • Other long term benefits are thicker hair and stronger nails.

Cons:
  • Pricey... But of course we have a life hack for that!

Life hack #1: Get it for free at sampleroom.ph. You can get 5 sachets using 120 points, then just pay for shipping.

Life hack #2: It's currently on sale from PHP 1400 to PHP 979 in Shopee, and the Belo Essentials store has an additional PHP 50 discount voucher valid until 5.5. So you can get a box of 10 sachets for just PHP 929. 🥰 (You're welcome!)

I love Belo Collagen Strawberry Smoothie because the health benefits I've experienced with it is beyond skin improvement. I also got better sleep and improved knee joint as well! Definitely making this part of my daily routine.
