Last year, Oprah's Favorite Things were revealed. I'm not really feeling like Oprah Winfrey right now, but I just want to have a list of my favorite things as well. Every time I see one of my favorite things, I can't help but tell the person next to me about it. Anyway, I started with my top 10 favorite beauty products and here's my list.1. OLAY TOTAL EFFECTS
You might think it's vain. No, 'cause I am not really dreaming of having a lighter skin. In fact, I love my skin color. My only problem is Xerosis. That's the extra dry condition of skin for those who don't know it yet.I started using OLAY last January and as quick as one month, I saw the amazing changes. My face brightened, looked younger, and normal because of its age-defying, moisturizing, and whitening effect. Girls in the office, started noticing and asking me about it. They knew I have skin problems. To add to that, I had allergies on my face in high school and my forehead got burned because of a strong ointment I used. The result was very bad. It darkened my forehead that it appeared shiny in pictures. Hey, not anymore!

2. POND'S White Beauty Lightening Cream
I am using POND's not because I am dying to have a pinkish face or something. I discovered the help of POND'S White Beauty Lightening Cream when bebegim and I started dating. He has beard and mustache which irritates my skin. I always end up having small rashes. Those rashes turn darker and POND'S White Beauty Lightening Cream is the only magic I use to lighten those spots. Hmmm.. another miracle, huh.3. A BONNE SPA MILK SALT
As far as I know, this product comes from Thailand. They just created a kind of spa salt that serves as a moisturizer and whitening product at the same time. Again, my extra dry skin improved with another amazing product. An office mate introduced it to me and believe me, after getting a really moisturized feeling for the first time, I couldn't help but stay some extra time in the shower to do the scrubbing during the first two weeks that I tried it. I am still using it three times a week. The effect is a smooth and silky feeling of the skin.HERE'S A TIP:
There is a store in Robinson's Pioneer selling A BONNE Spa Milk Salt 350 grams for 90Php. Really expensive right? Well, that's around 70 Php at Watson's they say, but in METRO Market Market Department Store, the same product is only 50Php!
4. DOVE's Pink Moisturizing Bar
I use this product on and off. During the summer season here in the Philippines, you may really steam a lot if you will be using DOVE's, so what I do is to scrub it to those really extra dry areas only. For the best result, this is best after using A BONNE Spa Milk Salt.5. JERGENS ALOE RELIEF Moisturizer
I am really a big fan of Jergens. It is not sticky nor greasy. It's fragrance doesn't compromise the moisturizing effect as well. I was born to use moisturizers and this product is my twin.6. NIVEA Whitening Deodorant
Whitening again? This time it's a YES. Why not? If there is only one thing that we want to be even with our skin, I think that is the armpit (if not the bikini lines, elbow, and knees among girls). Most commercial deodorants these days tend to give a darkening effect because of their strong fragrance. Not NIVEA.7. VASELINE Petroleum Jelly
If not because of allergies when I was a teenager, my feet would have been better.Yeah, it was very hard you know. I skipped school a lot of times. I did not eat chicken, egg, and other seafood for over a year just to get rid of my allergies back then. I couldn't walk well. I couldn't wear socks nor shoes. Just imagine.
Now my feet are looking way older than my age. My toes crack easily and the skin tone down there is rough and dark.
My only remedy to make my feet look a little better is to use Petroleum Jelly overnight. I wear socks to lock the moisture, scrub it the morning, rinse, and moisturize with DOVE's Pink Moisturizing Bar and Jergens.
8. AVON's Strawberry Lip Gloss
I started using lipsticks in high school. A dear aunt gave me a supply of lipsticks and colognes, so I was like switching from one scent or color to another since then until I met my babe. I should've known that some guys don't like women wearing lipsticks, but lip gloss.My babe doesn't like it if he gets a stain of my lipstick after kissing, so I stopped using them. AVON's Strawberry Lip Gloss is my favorite ever. Now I tend to buy a couple of them every time I contact an AVON lady.
