Derma E Even Tone Brightening Review

I am really happy that more beauty and skin care brands are trusting me to review their product. I am not a beauty blogger, I am just a mommy blogger who takes time taking care of herself. I have a daughter who look up to me so I make sure that I am a good example to her, specially in taking care of skin.

Last month, Healthy Options sent me products to try! Their skin care line which is Derma E. I specifically asked for the even tone and brightening line because I am not confident with the evenness of my skin tone. I have acidic face eh so sometimes yung mukha may area na dark, may area na darker 🙁

Watch the unboxing of the products with Baby Marius! I tried the product once and decided to give a try for one whole month! I kept all my other skin care products and used only the products Healthy Options gave me (except for eye cream and lip mask pala).

Derma E Even Tone Brightening Review

All Derma E products are cruelty free, soy-free, gluten free, gmo free, has wind energy certificates, and materials used are recyclable.

Here are the products that Healthy Options gave me with a short review of each:

Derma E Essentials Make Up Remover (549 PhP) does the job of removing make up. I haven’t tried using it on foundation since I don’t wear one, but noticed that it did removed my cc cream. I cannot say the same when it comes to my eyeliner and mascara though.

Derma E Even Tone Brightening Cleanser (675 PhP). I love this cleanser primarily because of the smell. It also non drying which is how cleansers should be. Problem? None at all, I like it from its simple packaging to dispensing to how it is when I use on my face.

Derma E Even Tone brightening Serum (1250 PhP). The serum, though a bit thick in consistency, spreads out evenly on the face. The takeaway? You need at least a minute or more before you can put on the moisturizer. It takes a while before it is fully absorbed.

Derma E Even Tone Brightening Moisturizer (1,250.00 PhP). The day moisturizer has SPF, that’s the only difference between the day and night. Consistency and smell wise, both are the same. Moisturizing effect? Both are the same. The moisturizer is thick. It takes a few minutes before I can feel my face again. Which at first, I thought was off but a few hours after, I was amazed. My skin IS NOT DRY. With my usual dry, I can already sense some dryness a few hours after moisturizing.

The brightening part? IT DOES BRIGHTEN MY SKIN TONE. Ever since I used Derma E, seeing my face every morning is a delight. No kidding! I have never been this confident showing my bare face. I even attend events with just face powder.

Where to buy Derma E products? Check Healthy Options nearest you or check Healthy Options Facebook Page for the branches where Derma E is available.

Gelatofix BGC Is Now Open!

Gelatiofix is an Italian Artisinal gelato café and is renowned for its over the top gelato creations and exquisite Italian cuisine created by award-winning chefs, Gelato World Cup Champion, Master Chef Filippo Novelli and Gelatofix Master Chef David Chang. And Gelatofix BGC opens it door to give BGC people a place to take a break.

Let’s start with over the top gelato creations. Out of all Gelatofix’s signature desserts, we were able to try two.

This is Gelatofix Sushi gelato, 6 mouth-watering sushis in one plate. I tried most of the sushi and my favorite is the Ebiko sushi looking gelato. We were advised that it includes wasabi and it was one of the best sushi I had. Oh wait. It’s Gelato! Seriously, the wasabi didn’t taste spicy at all. It was more pungent, just a strong taste but not spicy. I am guessing it is because the wasabi used in this creation is fresh and not a substitute.

The Gelatofix ‘Gelato Sushi’ is a creation of Gelato World Cup Champion, Master Chef Filippo Novelli.

Now this one, which I am having a hard tome writing because this is what dessert is all about for me. This is called the ‘Magic Boxx’, created by Gelatofix Master Chef David Chang. Take note of the extra X, because this dessert is extra ordinary.

It’s a unique fusion of Asian bread, toasted and topped with Italian gelato and served with a treasure chest of Gelatofix chocolate sauce. For this dessert alone, Gelatofix is a must visit.

Other than Gelato and the desserts I mentioned above, Gelatofix also serves salad, rich-flavoured soup, unique entreé, lavish mains, and beverages. For the beverages, we got to try the Italian soad in strawberry (pictured above together with apple flavor soda).

From the menu, we got try 2 of Gelatofix entreé: Rissoto Al Funghi and Spaghetti Prawn Apricot.

If I have to choose between the two, I would have a hard time. Both are flavorful but I think the shrimp will win the hearts of many. It’s creamy and tasty, makes you want to order another bowl.

“we will be the first in the Philippines to launch an authentic Italian dessert lifestyle café chain under Gelatofix. It will be the destination of choice for both young people and working adults who are in the prowl for mouth-watering yet guilt-less gelato and food offerings which make a serious play on both Italian and local flavors,” said Mr. Von Lacorte, Director, Gelatofix Philippines.

Gelatofix Philippines is located at ground floor, BGC Corporate Center, 30th corner 11th street, BGC, Taguig City. Gelatofix will be adding 5 more branches in the next 12 months. Keep tab of the locations of the coming branches by checking out Gelatofix Philippines Facebook Page. And they have ongoing promo until August 25!

Internationally, the Gelatofix café chain will be available in Cambodia, Kuwait, Maldives, and Qatar.
