Epilin Wax

Epilin Wax Strips

Myra-E Daily Sun Protect Moisturizer

--------------

It's my first time to use Epilin.

I tried using cold wax before. The one sold all over the net.

I'm not very much impressed with the results so,

I decided to give Epilin a try.

Epilin has also good feedbacks in GT as well as the cold wax.

So last Wednesday, I bought my very first hot wax.

I tried it before going to bed.

I'm hesitant to use it a first because I know It'll hurt much.

I have low pain tolerance, so I took pain reliever prior to waxing.

After 30mins had passed after taking pain reliever,

I started waxing my UA. Geez!

No pain felt. Haha! I find the waxing strips useless.

I didn't use it in the entire process because

the wax itself can be pulled off.

Onto the results, I have no regrets that I bought Epilin.

It took only 2mins for me to finish waxing my UA.

No hassle at all.

Tip: Test the temperature of the wax in your wrist before applying it.

** I will be busy this coming week... So, I have to say bye-bye for the mean time :(

I'll miss reading your blog posts dearies ♥

pea size amount :)

I first tried this product a year ago. (when Dingdong Dantes and Piolo Pascual advertised this before) Haha! I just tried it once because I find it too light for my skin tone. It makes me look pale:) Boooo! Then last week, it caught my attention again when I was browsing for a facial wash in a grocery store. I bought it for P29.50-3pcs. ($.59-P50). Yeah, it's cheap.

Before using the lightening cream, I cleaned my face first using Pond's Facial Foam. I was surprised when I put it on my face already. It does lighten my skin tone a bit. It's not like before when I first tried it.

Pros:

• no greasy or heavy feeling
• it's cheap and affordable
• available in sachets (so you can try it first)
• it's effective for lightening
• it gives a pinkish-white glow to my skin (as what the product says)
• it has lycopene
  
• matte finished

Cons:

• it dries quickly
  
• it broke me out (not so sure about this one*)

*I don't know if it is because the hormonal changes. My period came after using the said product . I usually have pimples during my menstrual cycle. Booooo :(

Thanks for the time!
