The Cream Factory SCRUB-in-a-TUB

My usual self is happy, on the go and full of ideas.. my other self (the one suffering from OCD) gets depressed for no reason at all.. that’s one of the “perks” of having an OCD. I never let that side of me overpower my happy disposition in my life and when it starts to show signs of attack I end with a me time.

ME TIME means a long bath with hot oil and scrub + mani ( I do my own) and make up. That’s how I soothe my OCD 🙂 And this is my current scrub obsession:

I got to try The Cream Factory Bath Cream from last year’s Glamourbox Secret Santa box. After trying it out, I noticed that the smell actually lingers on the skin, also I noticed that my skin is less dry with it. So when I was asked to try out The Cream Factory SCRUB-in-a-TUB, I said yes.

I am not your usual beauty geek, I did not even noticed if the scrub is doing good on my skin (the fact that The Cream Factory Bath Cream made my skin less dry was a realization after I was asked if I noticed how less I put lotion after trying the cream> I only apply lotion on my skin when it becomes flaky> bad girl!) What I like about the scrub is it smells fresh (not overpowering) and I feel very clean after using it. My mom, on the other hand, said she noticed that some of her dark spots lightened (she’s a better reviewer than me! hahaha she’s using an anti wrinkle product and she can make a good review out of it..maybe, it’s about time to have her as my guest reviewer in this blog no?)

I also like the fact that it is in a tub and the tub opens up easily (unlike the bath cream, packaged in a bottle, kinda hard to dispense).

And the tub I got for free is empty! Time to buy another tub 🙂

The Cream Factory SCRUB-in-a-TUB comes in 6 variants and grouped in 3, salty, creamy and yummy. The one I got is Goat’s Milk & Witch Hazel with salt as base. I love salt based scrub (feel na feel ko ang scrubbing haha), I can’t wait to try the Goat’s Milk & Seaweed.

I will also buy a tub for Sati.. yes, she’s too young for body scrubs, but since her legs are super flaky, she needs some scrubbing to exfoliate the skin (too much dead cells). I think the best variant for her is the creamy ones, the mildest and most gentle among the three. Now, I am quite torn which one to get, Jojoba or Honey?

The last among the three is the yummy, when I was asked to choose which ones I like the most, cinnamon takes the cake. I LOVE ANYTHING CINNAMON! (kaso walang stock that time, so I end up with Witch Hazel) Siguro before the Witch Hazel, I’ll try the Cinnamon first.. and with cocoa bean bits, I can now skip dessert, sa skin ko na lang muna haha

Buti na lang may date kame ni Sam later sa Robinsons Galleria..makakabili ng bagong tub 🙂 yes, it is available in Robinsons Galleria Supermarket 🙂

What Best Friends Are Made Of..

Last Saturday was International Women’s Day and I spend the day making cupcakes for my best friend.. one of the most awesome women I know (sorry Mahros if I have to copy your status, that’s the most apt description eh haha).

We’ve been friends since college..so that’s 10+ years ago (wag nyo na alamin kung ilang tao haha). We’re blocmates but didn’t hit it right..not until we became sorority sisters..and the rest, as they say, is history.

We’re not the kind of friends that talks everyday..but when we see each other, it feels like it was just yesterday that we last hang out.

We shop together but not that often.. kawawa ang mga bulsa namin!!! Our taste is almost the same (if not that the same> oh you know what I mean)..

And she does silly things with my kids:

She is a teacher by profession and I couldn’t count how many times she had helped with academics, like sharing me what she had learned during her masterals (Marungko approach and how to teach the kids effectively).

If there is one person (aside from my husband) who knows me really well (as in really really well..) that would be her.

And this our promise to each other….

If ever (sana lang talaga!) Les Miserables will be here, we have to watch it..and yeah bring a duct tape to prevent each other from singing our hearts out!
