Belo Baby Hair and Body Wash

I am enamored with Belo products. It's one of my favorite local brands! My favorite line from them would have to be SunExpert and AcnePro. A close friend of mine takes Belo Nutraceuticals Glutathione with Collagen, and when we saw each other again after a few weeks, she was already fairer than me. (Effective much!) Anyway, I saw the Belo Baby range in Zalora way back when it wasn't available yet in the malls and I grabbed it ASAP. I wanted to see if this can work as a sulfate-free shampoo for me. Also, I figured this would be sooo handy for travel, being a head-to-toe wash!

 

Just the mere fact that it's a baby product already gives the impression of this being a very gentle product. I like that it's made from 100% certified natural ingredients and 0% harmful chemicals!

This product contains shea butter and sweet almond oil to hydrate. Most importantly, it has no sulfate and other nasties! The cutie Scarlet Snow Belo is the face for this brand. If Vicki Belo uses this for her own baby, then it's bound to be good.

Belo Baby Hair and Body Wash has a very creamy texture. Because it has no surfactants, it doesn't lather AT ALL. Not even a little bit. With babies, this fact is totally fine because they already smell so good all the time. As for me, I find myself using up a lot of product, especially when I use this from head to toe. (I think this bottle would just last me around 2 weeks max!) It enhances my natural waves (not buhaghag unlike with regular shampoo), but my scalp doesn't feel totally cleansed because there's no bubbles. There's build up so I need to use a stronger shampoo once a week. I also use this on my face, and it's so gentle! (Don't skip the makeup remover though if you wear makeup.) No dryness, no breakouts! As a body wash, this one's amazing. It has a baby powder scent, and it leaves my skin really soft, even if I skip lotion. I'm still have mixed feelings whether I would recommend this for travel, because even if it's functional, you need a lot of pumps of product every bath time and if you transfer it to a small bottle, it will easily run out. But for babies, I think this is an excellent product. I like it!

On a side note, I like the Belo Baby Colognes as well; you can use it as cologne and hand sanitizer. But I have yet to buy them because I still have 4 bottle of fragrances in circulation at the moment.

Price: P219.75 for 200ml

Zalora Haul: Belo & Maybelline

When I was still working the the office, all I wanted to do come 5PM was to just go home. Whenever I had to buy something, online shopping + COD were such good friends to me. I've shopped at Zalora before but I admit it wasn't always smooth-sailing. I had the wrong shoe size delivered to me twice, but the worst was a pair of mismatched stud earrings. I must be the Queen of Returns, but this time around, they didn't fail me!

I checked out my order around 5PM (of March 21) and received my orders 11AM the next day (March 22). This is the first time I've ever experience online shopping with less than 24 hours delivery time, they probably rushed the deliveries because of Holy Week.

Here are the items I got:

Belo SunExpert Sunbrella with UPF50 (P450)
 

I bought this for my Mom. She uses an umbrella everyday when she fetches my sister from school. I noticed she got darker because of that even with sunblock on. This could probably help, and it looks so cute! I want one too but it's huge, so I'll just stick to my foldable one for now. 

BeloBaby Hair and Body Wash (P219.75)
 

Being a fan of Belo products, and being forever in search of a good sulfate-free shampoo, I got excited with this one. I'll transfer this to a smaller container and bring it with me to travels. No need to bring different bottles of hair and body wash! Also, since it's made for babies, it's bound to be gentle and good for my skin.

It's been too long since I bought anything from Maybelline. This used to be my favorite brand way back in college (probably because this was the only makeup I could afford). It's always nice to go back to an old favorite. I got the Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte in Vibrant Violet on sale (P299 -> P199) after hesitating for weeks. I read Michelle's review and messaged her on Facebook about this particular shade. I even swatched it in the mall. Finally, I decided to go for it and I'm happy I did! :D (Review soon!) My other purchase was Maybelline Hyper Sharp Wings in Black (P329 -> P164.50), which is a liquid eyeliner pen. I want to master my eyeliner application, so I bought an affordable one to practice with.
 

Happy with this haul! :D Any hauls you'd like to share?

Love,
Helen
