A practical tool na makes styling short hair quicker and easier ✨

It’s a hair blower brush—dries, smooths, curls, and adds volume in one step. Magaan pa siya compared sa iba kong natry na blower brushes, so styling short hair is effortless ✨

One of my favorite features:
• 4-in-1: dries, straightens, curls, adds volume
• Powerful motor (1000–1200W) for faster styling
• Hot & cool settings for flexible styling
• Oval bristles: smooths hair, reduces frizz, adds root volume
• 360° airflow & swivel cord for easier handling
• One-step styling: dry & style at once
• Lightweight & easy to operate (nadala ko na to sa travel)

Why I love it: Simplus is one of my go-to and trusted brands—quality products na hindi too cheap pero hindi rin sobrang mahal. I’ve also tried their portable vacuum, blender & airfryer 💛

My acne journey has been a long battle. It started in high school — pimples would come and go. In college, the same thing — gone, then back again.

When I started working in Taguig, my acne came back and became more stubborn. I used to cover it with makeup and pimple patches.

In January 2022, I finally decided to see a certified dermatologist (diagnosed with acne vulgaris & high cholesterol). After 3–4 months, my acne cleared, and by the end of 2022, my face was smooth again. Only few deep scars remained, and I continued the treatment (still finishing the remaining oral plan). Even during my period, wala na or i'd get just one or two pimples (mabilis mawala din 🥹)

Then in March 2025, hormonal acne started coming back — mostly on my chin and the sides of my cheeks. I consulted my dermatologist again and followed the treatment. I also did laser treatments to help heal my scars faster.

I also had to change my lifestyle: careful with what I eat (less sugar, less oil), exercise even a little, avoid staying up too late, and be very careful with skincare — always reading labels before trying anything. Genetics also played a role — I have acne-prone (from my tatay's side) and sensitive skin (from my nanay's side).

It took time, patience, and effort to get here. I’m still maintaining my skin and learning every day, but this journey taught me to trust the process, be patient, and take care of yourself. 🫶✨

Trying Fotona Laser to help with acne, scars, and skin texture ✨

Fotona Laser Treatment is a non-invasive dermatological procedure used for Acne scars, Pigmentation, Enlarged pores, Skin tightening and rejuvenation.

What it does:
• Kills acne-causing bacteria
• Stimulates collagen production (helps scars and texture)
• Improves skin tone and brightness
• Minimizes pores
• Helps control oil production

Why many acne patients choose it:
• No surgery or injections
• Minimal downtime – in my experience, it took about 1 week to peel off normally, and another week for some marks to fade (especially for deeper scars treated repeatedly)
• Gradual, natural-looking improvement – usually noticeable after about a month.

Laser used: Fotona ERyAG

Important tip:
As per my doctor, they recommend calming active pimples first before focusing on scar-focused resurfacing.

In my case,they focused on marks and texture with the Fotona ERyAG laser, aiming for long-term skin healing, especially because I wanted to speed up scar healing for an important event.
