5 Reasons Why I Love HYDRAFACIAL

For someone who loves skin care so much, facial should not be a big deal no? Well, not for me. I am afraid to explore that area. In fact, I often turn down invites for me to try a facial (save for a few or just one that I said yes). I love giving away Spa GCs that I got, specially if it involves a facial. I am not really sure why but maybe because I feel like it would just be a waste of time and the results won’t be what I expected it would be.

But in the end, my curiosity got me. I am not the kind of person who would travel to Makati just to get a facial, but I did. This facial really got me, as I heard that somewhere in the world, this kind of facial is done every 15 seconds. Do the math. But that’s really a lot and that was just last year. I’m guessing this year, it’s every 5 seconds. Is it really that good? IT IS.

Actually, it’s not just a facial, it’s HydraFacial. Is it your first time to hear about it? Let me tell you more about it by giving you the 5 reasons why I love it. Which is also the reasons why I have plans on doing this on a monthly basis. Hear me out!

5 Reasons Why I Love HydraFacial

HydraFacial is non invasive and is pain- free, meaning it does not go beyond your skin. It does not prick and not at all painful to the skin. If you have stubborn black heads or white heads, you know how it feel when they prick that. With HydraFacial, pricking is history. As the name suggests, it uses hydra or water (and water) in high speed to exfoliate the skin. Watch the video to see how much dirt it removed from my skin without any pain!

HydraFacial gives you the best skin of your life in less than an hour. The treatment includes 3 steps procedures: cleansing, exfoliating, infusing. After the 3 steps, skin is treated with LED Light Therapy. And all those steps in just less than an hour.

HydraFacial has no side effect and little downtime. After the procedure, you are good to go! From my experience, there really is no downtime. My face is not red, not swollen, no pain! I can resume my activities right after HydraFacial. Of course, you need to be extra careful with sun exposure, but every skin enthusiast and skin loving beauty knows that naman di ba? Sun can do great damages to your skin.

HydraFacial is best for all skin types. You know there are facial that is not advised for oily skin or facials that are only for specific skin types. HydraFacial caters to all skin types as the booster are tailored for what the skin needs that moment. You have fine lines and wrinkles? Go for it! Skin texture? Brown spots? Dry skin?

Reverse Mortgage Pros and Cons to Consider Before Applying

Have you ever heard of a retirement home loan? It exists, and it is called a reverse mortgage. A traditional mortgage is one that can help you on a very short-term basis. It also gives you another bill to worry about. A reverse mortgage provides more long-term assistance with no immediate strings attached. It lets you access your money free and clear, at least for a while. If that sounds goo to you, it may be time to apply, but first there are some pros and cons worth considering.

Reverse Mortgage Pro: You Have No Repayment Schedule to Follow
One of the biggest pros of a reverse mortgage is there is no repayment schedule. You will not see a bill each month like with a traditional mortgage. You also will not have a set loan period. A traditional loan must be paid back during a set period, like 5 years. A reverse home loan lets you extend the loan for a much longer period, as long as you remain the owner of the home and continuously live in it.

Reverse Mortgage Pro: You Get Your Money How You Want It
Another reason to consider a reverse mortgage is you have borrowing flexibility that can help you with specific retirement concerns. For example, requesting equal payments each month for as long as there is available home equity to borrow can help you pay ongoing monthly bills. That option functions similarly to receiving the paychecks you may miss when you retire.

Although monthly installments are popular, they are not your only choice. Another possibility is you may want to borrow cash only when you need it. If so, you can treat a reverse mortgage similar to a credit card by borrowing certain amounts only when you need them. You could also opt to sign up for a reverse mortgage due to an unexpected major expense, such as a bills relating to a medical condition. A large single payment can help you dig out from such a debt quickly.

Reverse Mortgage Pro: You Can Enjoy More Housing Security Fear-Free
When you take out a traditional mortgage on your home, you run the risk of foreclosure. All it takes is missing a payment to put your home in jeopardy. A reverse mortgage provides you with much more housing security for two reasons. The first is the reverse mortgage lender actually requires you to stay in your home as part of the mortgage agreement. At no time will your lender want to evict you. The second is there is no payment schedule. Therefore, you cannot miss payment due dates because such due dates do not exist.

Reverse Mortgage Con: You Have to Stay in Your Home
Although home security is considered a reverse mortgage benefit, it can also be a problem. Since you are not allowed to move away without the loan becoming due, you are obligated to remain living where you are for a long time, if you want to keep the loan agreement intact. Also, one of the reverse-mortgages downsides is if you are ever forced to leave your home for any reason, such as long-term hospitalization, the loan may be called in.

Reverse Mortgage Con: Some Initial Fees and Stipulations Apply
Being 62 or older is not the only requirement for getting a reverse mortgage. There are other stipulations. One is you may not maintain two mortgages at once. If you already have a traditional home mortgage, you can apply for a reverse loan. However, you must use some of the money you receive to immediately pay the balance on the first home loan. Other fees like closing costs are also immediately deducted from the total available to borrow.

“Wag Mong Isuko Ang Laban!” Momshie Angeline

When I first watcehd this video, muy initial reaction is: NAKAKAIYAK! Napanood niyo na din ba? I am cheering for all of them. I can see that their struggles for having pimples is genuine..

But out of all the 4 brave young women in the video, I can related most to ANGELINE CARANDANG.

I can sense that she is an amazing mom but is often judged because of her pimples.

“Honestly, lately hindi ako lumalabas ng bahay. There’s this misconception na ‘pag ma-pimple ka, madumi ka kaya sometimes I feel hopeless.” A former special education teacher, now a full-time mom, Angeline Carandang powers through the negativity, despite an overwhelming feeling of insecurity, “Behind this face, I can be a great mom… matatapos din ‘to, ngayon lang ‘to.”

That’s how momshie Angeline look from Day 1. Let us cheer and join her as she embarks in a 60-day journey with Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Solutions, capturing real progress, with real results in real time. The campaign begins with a heart-wrenching 60-second testimonial video of these 4 women telling everyone what society tells them every day.

Through real stories from real people, Maxi-Peel aims to open our eyes and minds to the truth behind acne. That removing pimples is not just about being beautiful, or achieving smoother skin, or to gain more followers, those are just the aesthetic effects. The real purpose of the brand is to help Filipinos treat and cure an actual skin condition, boost their self-confidence, revive their self-belief, and empower them to have a fighting chance against prejudice and discrimination.

This fight isn’t just about the face, this fight is about facing challenges head on, and acknowledging that it’s only just a phase. Never quitting, never stopping. To all Filipino women out there who have lost their confidence, hope is not lost. You can get past this, in your fight against acne and all its inherent negativity, “Wag Mong Isuko Ang Laban”.
