Feminine White Cream Thailand Review
by
Lin Sy
- 8:21:00 PM
Good morning Lovelins!!!! It is morning right now while I'm making this blog post. So if you are reading this post right now, maybe you are planning to buy or already bought one of this cream. Thailand has its reputation when it comes to beauty products and I can say that they have lots and lots of it. Again, I bought Thailand products because at first I was planning to sell them but my parents prohibited me since the products are not written in English that is why I end up using them, I even give some to my relatives for them to try. So I present to you this feminine white cream from Thailand also known as femwhite cream :)
Ingredients: Since it is not written in english I can't list what is the content of this product
How much I bought it: I bought it for 45 pesos each from Asian Vanity Shop
The product promises: It can whiten the dark areas of your body especially the inguinal part or the bikini lines. Results can be observed as early as 3-5days
How many times I used it: I normally use this once a day after bathing. Used this for more than a month to see its efficacy.
How do I use it: I scoop an ample amount of product and apply it liberally to the part I want to whiten.
Pros:
- It smells like sampaguita, the odor is not that strong.
- It does whiten a bit but not that much. So don't expect too much :)
- it is creamy yet it is not so sticky.
Cons:
- language barrier, funny story my mom use it on her face since she can't read what was written on it lol XD
- 45 pesos is a bit much for a very small cream.
- the product is a shiny green cream which stains my fingers and of course my undies but at least it is washable :)
- so it didn't fulfilled its promise to whiten as early as 3-5 days, I notice some changes after 3 weeks of applying.
Verdict: My rate for this product is 2.5/5. Its not as good as what has been circulating in online stores but it is not that bad as well. I'm just finishing up those I bought but I'm not planning to buy again :)
Recommendations: Don't expect too much because you'll end up hurting yourself (HUGOT haha XD) It requires long period of time to see the effects on topical products so if you wish to achieve the desired results, use the product faithfully :)
Thank you again Lovelins for dropping by, always make yourself comfortable in my little own world :)

Lin Sy
- 1:26:00 AM
How much I bought it: I bought the cream for 45 pesos from Asian Vanity Shop
The product promises: to lighten all the dark areas of your skin, it can be used as deodorant
How many times I used it: I used it once a day as part of my daily skin care routine.
How do I use it: I get an ample amount of the product and apply it in my dark areas such as the armpit, knee, elbow and bikini lines.
Pros:
- it has a mango fruity scent. That's all, its the only pros I can tell about this product. Get ready for the cons lol XD
Cons:
- what makes me hate it is it darkens my underarms, well my underarms are not that dark though but yeah its just sad.
- the product came to me half filled. My money comes to waste for this product.
- it is very sticky and hard to apply, it stains my finger especially my shirt. It makes me sweat even more.
- the product only last up for less than a week.
- 45 pesos is not worth for the cream.
Verdict: I rate this cream 1/5 :( . My experience from this product is just sad. I've been reading a lot of good feed backs about it but the result really depends on the response of the body and mine's not good.
Recommendations: Stop using any product immediately if you see any signs of adverse effect on you.
Tofu Soap Review
by
Lin Sy
- 12:31:00 AM
Hi Lovelins!! I still have a lot of Thailand products to review so here is another one. So one of my favorite drink, beverage or dessert (where ever category it falls XD) is taho. Yes, its one of Filipino's yummy beverage. Taho is made from tofu.Tofu is actually coagulated soy milk which is widely use in culinary especially in East Asian and Southeast Asian country. But in Japan, tofu is also used in cosmetics. This review is all about tofu soap which the raw tofu is imported in Japan and manufactured in Thailand.
Ingredients: Due language barrier, I cannot understand what is written in the box but since it is called tofu soap I assumed that one of the chief ingredient is tofu :3 According to my research, it is also infused with Vitamin E which is really really good for the skin :)
How much I bought it: I bought it for 45 pesos from Asian Vanity Shop
The product promises: can lighten dark spots, tightens pores, helps rejuvenate new skin cells, non drying
How many times I used it: I used it in my face only day and night.
How do I use it: I wet the soap with water to lather and I gently scrub my face in a circular motion. I used it together with tofu pore scrub.
Pros:
- The packaging is nice, the soap is individually wrapped inside the box
- I very much love the smell, it smells like vanilla or yogurt, its like I wanna bite it lol XD
- It is mild soap, best for acne prone skin.
- As it promises, it is non drying.
- It gives a botox affect after wash, it feels like the skin is being lifted. My skin becomes shiny too!
- It dries my pimples and reduces break outs.
- The soap does not melts easily. Mine lasts for more than a month since I only used it for my face.
- Affordable.
Cons:
- You can only buy this on an online shop.
- Does not really lighten my dark spots.
- As for minimizing my pores, it didn't do the job.
Verdict: I rate tofu soap 4/5. I like it so much that I still use it up until now. Definitely will buy again :)
Recommendations: Always apply moisturizer to the skin after washing with soap.

This scrub is formulated to remove whiteheads and blackheads and shrinking your pores as well. From the name itself, its main ingredient is tofu. The reason why we use facial scrub is to exfoliate dead skin cells and to help our skin regenerate. Here comes my review :)

How do I use it: I squeezed a pea size on my fingers and gently scrub my face, especially in the nose area, in circular motion, I let it stay for a minute and wash away with water. I used it together with tofu soap.
Pros:
- The packaging is very cute as usual.
- I like the watery consistency, it is very mild to the skin and it does not sting.
- It moisturize my skin after washing since it is not drying compared to other scrubs.
- I also like the mild scent.
- The little bottle goes a long way, it can last up to three weeks

Cons:
- You can only buy these from an online shop. The shipping fee may cause you a lot, especially when you are in a province just like me.

Verdict: I really like this product so I rate this 4/5 yey!! :3 It is very mild as I said and what I really love about it is it is non-drying. It is best for sensitive and dry skin :) I will definitely buy this again.

Lin Sy
- 7:08:00 PM
Welcome back lovelins!! :) Asians especially Filipinos are well known for fair complexion or "morena" skin. It is not new for us Filipinos that many of us aspire to have whiter skin. I admit, I am one of them :3 One of the famous skin whitener is glutathione. Since glutathione is well known in the market because of its property to lighten the skin, I found this soap named Gluta pure soap. It has also lotion made by wink white. You can check out my review about it, just click here :) Thailand beauty products are booming in online stores and I was amused by the number of great feedbacks about those products that's why I gave it a shot.
Ingredients : Coconut oil, Rice bran oil, Sunflower oil, Glutathione, milk, vitamin E, vitamin B3, vitamin C, perfume
How much I bought it: I bought it at thaiph for 65 each.
The product promises: whiten your skin and has spf 50. It contains an ingredient that removes dead skin cells, leaving deep cleansing formula that result to a purely white and glowing skin as possible.
How many times I used it: I use this product twice a day. Day and night.
How long does it last: if you use it day and night the soap will last for about a week a half. But if you use it only once, it can last for 2 weeks or more.
How do i use it: I wash the soap first with water. Using a towel, i scrub some of the soap then I used the towel to scrub my skin. I let the lather sit on my skin for about 5-10 minutes to let my skin to absorb it. I brush my teeth and wash my face while waiting. Then i wash the soap away with water.
Pros:
• the packaging is neat and nice. The soap is packed separately with a plastic.
• what i love about this soap is the smell. Unlike other glutathione soap, it does not smell like an acid. It smells like a vanilla.
• it does not sting. It is mild to the skin. This soap is infused with goat milk that's why it doesn't dry your skin.
• it peels your skin. My dead skin cells were shed off.
• it has spf 50 which can eventually protect your skin from sun damage.
Cons:
• it is somehow pricey. It is just a small soap. And you can only buy this through online shopping. Plus you'll shoulder the shipping fee.
• it takes longer time to see the whitening to effect.
• it melts easily but not as fast as kojic soaps.
Verdict: i will rate this 4/5. I really like this soap :)
Recommendations: to achieve whiter skin, use the soap for a longer period of time. You can partner it with its lotion. Avoid prolong exposure to sun to avoid skin darkening.
Clear Nose Thailand Review
by
Lin Sy
- 7:42:00 PM
Hi Lovelins!! I want to call my readers lovelins because I love you guys :) This time i will be reviewing clear nose from Thailand also called "Gel mat na hut mun white". It is a black and white heads remover. Black or whiteheads are the small bumps usually in the nose area which are actually sebum that clogged the ducts of sebaceous glands. So I bought this product also from Asian Vanity Shop.
I always want to remove those nasty bumps in my nose. I've already tried several nose pack and nose strips but doesn't work much to me so I want to give this product a chance since I've been reading a lot of good feed backs about this product. So here come it is :)
How much I bought it: I bought this for 70pesos at Asian Vanity Shop. The seller is very honest and accommodating :)
The product promises that: it will remove your black heads and Whiteheads.
How many times do I use it: I use this product repeatedly at a time, about 3 times until I feel my nose is cleaner :3. I use this at least twice a week.
How long does it last: You can use this for more than 20 times. Your 70 pesos is worth it compared to the strips and packs that doesn't work. The bottle is about 2" inches small. Just bigger than a 1 peso coin. It is like a glue and it also smells like glue.
How do I used it : First i wash my face with soap and water. Then I got a cotton and dipped it in warm water. I then swabbed the cotton on my nose to open up the pores. I got a cotton bud to got the product. You can use your fingers but I don't recommend it since the product is sticky and the sheets will stick to it. I applied a thin layer of product to my nose and I put the sheets to the area where I applied the product. I waited for about 5-10 minutes to let it dry. You can watch TV or listen to music to avoid boredom to strike :3. After that i gently pulled the sheet upward. I repeat applying the product twice more. Lastly I washed my face again with cold water to close the pores and to remove the residue that is left in my face.
Pros:
• the packaging is very nice and neat. The bottle is inside a resealable plastic and also comes up with 60 pcs. of thin sheets of paper.
• it does removed my white heads, the first time i used it i was really shocked. I saw my whiteheads in the sheets smiling and waving at me lol XD it was my first time to use a white heads remover that can remove that many. Cheers to maker of it yey!!! XD
• it is cheap yet effective. You can use this product for months.
Cons:
• language barrier. You can't understand the instructions because it is not written in English.
• it does not come with an applicator. The product is really sticky my fingers sometimes stick together that's why i decided to use a cotton bud
• it is like a suspension, some of the product settle at the bottom that's why i have to mix it first before using
Verdict: I will give it a 4/5. This product is an effective blackheads and whiteheads remover. Definitely a recommendable product. (Two thumbs up :) )
Recommendations: Use regularly to reduce the appearance of whiteheads and blackheads.

• It is mild to the skin and soothes itchiness.
• it has a mild herbal scent. It smells like radish soap.
• it somehow fades my dark lines.
Cons:
• It doesn't erase my stretch marks and scars. I ended up using 6 jars of it just to give it more time but i decided to stop because i can't see any improvement anymore. i used it for two consecutive months.
Verdict: i rate this 3/5. Maybe it's just not the one :( I'm still trying to find the one. Centella body cream is not for me though.
Recommendations: try it for yourself. I guess my body has different mechanism. Topical products takes longer time to effect on me

The seller is very accomadating :) they even text you for

before shipping. They are so honest. Points for them ;)
The Product Promises: whiten skin, reduce breakouts, v-shaped face.
How long did I take it: I used this product for 1 month and two weeks consistently. 2 gluta caps and 1 rose hip cap every night.
Pros:
-
It comes with a very neat packaging. A pink bottle with a flower in it. It's just so classy for me hehe XD
-
The capsules are in soft gel form. It's not hard to swallow, it glides easily in your mouth.
-
It doesn't have any foul smell.
-
It does make you face v-shaped haha. I've noticed it even though I already have a slimmer face.
-
I love the free 10 rose hip caps. Who doesn't like free?
-
Very affordable.
Cons:
-
For the whitening effect, I didn't see any drastic change in my skin color. I guess it needs more time to take effect.
Verdict: I rate this product 3/5
Recommendations:
Take this in different time lapse. Example one in the morning and one
in the evening. Maybe the product didn't work for me because I took all
at once. Also take vitamin c along with glutathione for better
absorption :) If you are pregnant or lactating, always consult your
physician first before taking oral gluta :)
