Products: Aicha Hearts Human Heart Nature

May is currently rolling, and I am feeling adventurous!

I've been using several products from Human Heart Nature these previous few months, obliterating most of  the products I've long been using. There is a certain relief in my part that I've committed to stop using chemical-laden products on my skin. I feel like I am going in the right direction, and my skin feels like its thanking me for this effort :D


I've been going on about "becoming healthier" or going "all-natural" in my previous posts, giving you a hints that all boil down to this online order:

Human Heart Nature is a local brand made popular by the subscribers of the Go-Organic subscribers or people who are on the Green-campaign bandwagon. I've recently developed a disgust in the usage of beauty products containing harsh chemicals which can "take care" of our skin. For me, that sounds like an oxymoron gone haywire.


I ordered a few items from Human Heart Nature, starting with their lipgloss, which I really need since my lips are often always pale, and a I needed a pretty shiny color that would make my face look better, or at least decent. I bought the Mineral Lip Gloss in Island Berry.

Direct Light

Indoor

Natural light

What I like:
> Natural color, not too bold
> Pleasant, non-floral scent
> No bad ingredients
> Moisturizing!!

What I don't like:
> Very very sticky
> The wand end is too large
> Color has little staying power

I also tried a small bottle sample of their Healthy Lotion in Berry Bliss, which I swear now will be my staple lotion because it is very good! The scent is so fruity and nice without being overwhelming. It sticks to the skin well and dries easily. Very runny!

What I like about it:
> Best organic lotion ever!
> Scent is so fruity
> Runny; easy to apply and dry
> No SPF - Perfect as nighttime sleeping lotion

What I don't like about it:
> That I didn't get a bigger bottle!!! :)


Finally, the crowing glory of my package, the legendary Golden Elixir that "is 100% Natural and packed with vitamins A, D & E that help moisturize and nourish your skin to give it that healthy glow -- without any harmful chemicals." Presenting the Sunflower Oil:

Since Day One I immediately latched on to it like a mongoose. I love this thing! It replaces all my daytime and nighttime moisturizers, as well as specialty lotions for my extra-dry body areas. There is nothing I can't do without Sunflower Oil. I will repurchase forever.

Have you tried organic skincare before? Do you prefer it over traditional skincare from so-and-so company? What products did you try?

Thanks so much for visiting!

Pre-Kadayawan Bazaar

Happy Kadayawan Davao!~

In celebration of the upcoming "Kadayawan sa Dabaw", events have been popping up all over the city, especially agri-harvest exhibits, bazaar/tiangge, and concerts where hundreds of people flock to.

I grabbed a quick bite at McDo, but upon going to Damosa St., I saw people lining up from the curb, straight up to the Gateway parking lot. The line was seriously long that I had to wonder what's happening, plus I kind of got worried because I saw a lot of people elbowing and shoving each other none too gently. Then I saw the cincher: Hale Band, Yeng Constantino, Eric Santos and Rachel Ann Go were part of an event concert. Ahh.

Fortunately, there was also another event nearby that I could go: the Matina Town Square Kadayawan Bazaar! There weren't a lot of people there and it was a bit quiet (But if you ask me, this event is more fun and I like the fact that it's less likely a random elbow is going to break my nose here.)

Here are some pics I took! :)

Tents inside a big ass tent! How cool is that? This way, the shoppers are 2x protected from bad weather! HEHE!

Clothes! Clothes! Accessories! Cheap Prices! Clothes! What more could you want?

Earrings and Purses: The white wallet with the hearts all over it is so cute! Only P190 (less than $4) too!

Cute shoes for you! Not for me though, I'm not a slippers/sandals kind of person. I'm more into slip-on sneakers and skimmers. But I have to admit that the displays are sweet eye candies! CLICK TO FULL VIEW!

OMG! I am seeing Human Nature Organic skin care products! For just P49.00 (less than $1.00) I bought their "Solid Perfume" in Pineapple and Coconut... AND I WANNA EAT IT BECAUSE ITS SO DELICIOUS ; ; STOP ME!! But it's okay, isn't it? I mean, it's 100% organic anyway! xD


Moar accessories! Look closely at the earrings encircled above. My gulay! It's the cutest earrings ever! They're shiny, lightweight apples with little green leaves on top. All of the earrings you see are sold for only P80.00 and all of them are so cute. Too bad I'm also not a long-earrings kind of girl. I like the studded ones better. I hate it when the long earrings pull some strands from my hair :(



This one above is a Zen body scrub. (The picture is kinda dark-- My stupid shadow got in the way) I haven't heard of it before, but I think they're from Aromacology. The kindly lady let me try and smell it (yay she knows how to satisfy my olfactory needs--I need to smell EVERYTHING!) and if you love coffee, you'll absolutely love this scrub. My god, I fell in love with one whiff. I wanted to eat the body scrub too. (Ugh I'm disgusting! But yeah!) The coffee scent is sooooo strong and it makes you want to go out and buy pan de sal or something XDD

A contact of mine has also sent me a message that some seller in the MTS Kadayawan Bazaar is going to promote Ellana Minerals next week. Waaa! I am going to get that oil-absorbing finishing powder and a baby buki brush. I can't wait! This makes me love Kadayawan even more!
