Vitapack Whitening Products Review

Let’s start with the soap since skin care always starts with cleansing right? I love how Vitapack Whitening soap is packaged, specially the shape. Because it is rounded, no sharp edges that may hurt the skin. Ito talaga ang isa sa pinaka ayaw ko sa mga soaps, ang sakit pag may sharp edges, ang sakit sa unang gamit.

Vitapack Whitening Products Review

Vitapack Whitening Soap has 8 benefits for the skin:

whitening
exfoliating
clrafiying
smoothening
anti-bacterial
anti-aging
moisturizing
brightening

It’s like an all in one kind of whitening soap. Aside from whitening, it also has brightening effect. It can also prevent pimples because of its anti-bacterial component. And because it is also moisturizing, skin is not that dry after every shower.

But even with its moisturizing effect, you still need to use lotion of course. And with that comes Vitapack Whitening Lotion

Vitapack Whitening Products Review

Two things that I super like about the lotion and the reasons why I would not stop using it:

Vitapack Whitening Lotion is not sticky
VItapack Whitening Lotion smell is not that strong

Some of the whitening lotions I have tried have this strong smell that my husband does not like. With Vitapack, he did not even noticed that I am using a product. Hindi sya talaga masakit sa ilong. And with the weather here in our country, it is very important na hindi malagkit ang product, and Vitapack Whitening Lotion is no.

How effective is Vitapack Whitening Soap and Lotion?

I used both products para mas effective ang lightening, I wish I could also use the supplement but I am still breastfeeding. My husband noticed that my skin lightened after two weeks. He was out of the country for two weeks eh.

I also noticed that arms skin tone are looking better:

Nakapulot din ng confidence to wear sleeveless, thanks to Vitapack Whitening soap and lotion. Kaunting push pa to remove that tummy! Wala bang slimming soap na super effective at kasing effective ng Vitapack Whitening soap? haha

What I like most about Vitapack Facial Mask:

The serum was really think but not sticky after removing the mask.
The mask is of good quality (hindi sya napupunit).
There is so much serum on the mask, that I use the extra on my knees and elbow.

Recommended usage f mask is 2-3 times a week. I don’t think I could use it that often. Siguro my budget will only allow once a week since I also use other facial mask.

Black Friday Shopping Tip: Avoid the Long lines

We know how crazy women can be when it comes to sales. Funny how impulse we are when there is a sale. It is a very satisfying feeling to find great deals. Yet, most of us hate the long lines. We all know that long lines are part of sale. There are times that you’d rather stay home, but you are missing a lot of amazing deals. Black Friday is approaching. Have you ever thought of going out there and get into the crowd? Black Friday is Black Friday. So, you can endure what’s waiting for you because we all know it is worth it. Never mind the crowd and the long lines, here are the tips on how to avoid them:

Make a list of what you need to buy
Strolling around the store is not a good idea during Black Friday sale. Prepare for this day, make a list of what you need to buy and what’s your budget. Also, make a list of what you want and the extra budget allocate for it. By doing so, you will save time and avoid a long line ahead.

Prepare your resources
Don’t forget your resources. Bring your money, credit cards, debit cards, privilege cards, and printed coupons. Make sure to present the necessary cards during checkout. For some shops, they honor privilege cards and make a priority lane for the holders.

Use Eco bags
Shopping carts are hard to maneuver during the Black Friday Sale. You might get distracted from the crowd or lose control of your cart. Better bring some Eco bags for ease of movement. Use bags that are larger in size and can sling to shoulders. It will be a lot easier to go around with your Eco bags than a heavy shopping cart. This works nicely, especially on narrow spaces.

Shop with a friend
Shopping alone may be beneficial, especially for moms. Yes, you have to leave your kids at home. Please make sure not to bring them, even the teens. To have an easier experience on Black Friday, bring a friend along. It is fun to shop with a friend. You can split ways in the shop and shop for each other. By doing this, you can save more time. Or you can also ask your friend to secure a line for what you’ve shopped. Then once you are done, take turns in the line.

Shop Online on Black Friday
Not only avoid long lines, you will also save and find great deals online. Picodi will provide a special place for Black Friday deals to online stores so make sure to check it out when the day comes. Shop from the comfort of your home and avoid the lines!

Black Friday sale is an exciting and most-awaited time of the year. But it can be exhausting so make the best out of it. Beat the Black Friday Sale and go home with great deals.
