Thoughts on Virtual Ink #1 : Mellowing as you age

A couple of days ago I was tearing apart my room looking a cable then I found this... 

It's a cheap set of sticky note memo pads, come to think of it, it isn't all that cheap because I hardly used it due to its poor adhesive. Tsk tsk... but look what I found scribbled inside...

I must have written this around 2 years ago. Alarming I must say, as I got older I've learned to tolerate a lot of stuff I couldn't when I was young, I learned to keep my tongue from delivering verbal lashings, cussing too much, being too frank and airing out my sentiments in the most intimidating way I can. I've also grown to embrace change and diversity. It was hard. REALLY HARD. I still can't believe how level-headed I am now compared to the old me. Taking studies a bit more seriously, becoming more sociable, engaging in social events just to get a along with the crowd... yadda yadda yadda 

Not that there's something wrong with it, I do admit that I like myself better now. 

But I still miss that DianeShishio who wouldn't take shit from anyone, it had to be her way or no way, the girl who wouldn't swallow the bullet. Yes... that girl who wouldn't sell herself short no matter the consequences, she knew, oh yes, she knew she deserved nothing but the best. 

And so do you. Don't settle for less, you deserve the best. 

Salutes you for being so damn fine,

DianeShishio

Holika Holika White Egg Soap Review

A thousand raves can’t all be wrong right? So I got the Holika Holika Egg Soap online for only 480php! Which is a tad cheaper than its original price of $15, given the current exchange rate today is approximately 630php. Truth be told, it’s the first time I’ve heard of Holika Holika and I shamefully admit that it was the cute ingenious packaging that sold me (yes, more than the reviews c: ) I also have a huge faith in Korean skincare products and all egg-based and honey-based products thus the purchase. Holika Holika is owned by Enprani, a high end skincare brand in Korea, as to date Holika Holika hasn’t branched out in the Philippines yet, though I'm praying we get to see a store open locally, just like Majolica Majorca *cheers*

Egg Carton FTW :3

It claims...

It tightens pores and make your skin sleek.
A solid soap, which foams easily, and can replace your cleanser.
After 4 weeks, it should help to reduce your blackheads.*

My sweet eggies! :)

Each egg weighs 50g, but my eggs are disproportionately sized. One egg seems to be smaller or perchance the other one is bigger? O_o 

For size comparison purposes, here's a REAL egg next to a soap egg...

Egg1: Hi, you must be new around here? ^_<
Egg2: *blush* *giggles*

The soap isn't all that puny as it looks, its about the size of a real fertilized chicken egg, not like the humongous poultry-farm-store-bought egg in the picture.

How to use:

The egg soap work as a cleanser so all you'd have to do is wet your hands and rub the soap between your hands until foamy then massage gently on your face.

Oh, what the heft :3

or rub the soap against your wet face. I find it easier this way as the soap slips too often. You can also use Holika Holika's White Egg Soap as a mask, do as instructed above and massage your face until the foam turns into a fine creamy lather, then rinse off.

My take on this product...

Heaven Sent! Results are almost instant. A week into using this product and my nose is clear and smooth to touch. There are still blackheads of course but they are much less visible now. 

Would I recommend it?

Yes, to everyone who is troubled day and night by blackheads and whiteheads, do try this product! :)

Would I repurchase?

Yes. Absolutely.

Overall Rating: 

4.5/5

This is a really good product at a reasonable price. The soap doesn't melt easily as long you store it properly, one of my egg soaps seem to have melted a great deal because of heat, so remember to keep it in a COOL, DRY place.

The only con here is that its not locally available at the moment. You can find local online sellers but please do take caution. If you'd like to contact my seller please leave me a comment/message. :)


Have a great week ahead,
