IS TONER NECESSARY?

"Best toner to date" was a promise I made in my instagram post and this product really lives up to what it says to be.

It doesn't dry up my skin. It made my pores tighter and my skin more refined. I'm using this 250ml bottle for 4 months now and it's only half way done. So what's the question about this product? Nothing! But what you should be asking yourself is, do you need toner in general? A beauty guru said,"toners are a pricey broth of water, color, preservatives, witch hazel, alcohol --- and not much else". - "Beauty, the New Basics" by Rona Berg

Well I like my toner, that's for sure. I need it because I really have oily T-zone and when I go to sleep, I wanna make sure no debris of dirt on my face sleeps with me. It's almost like for security purposes.

Do I recommend it?

To be honest, you should invest more on a really good cleanser, something that washes off all the dirt that's partying on your pores because what really toner does is sweep all the traces of dirt on your face left behind by your cleanser. But if you're oily, like me, I recommend toner. Probably this one, ULTRA FACIAL TONER from KIEHL'S, your money is worth the service of this product and it won't disappoint you, I promise! 

Available on: Greenbelt 5, Alabang Town Center, Mall of Asia, TriNoma and Powerplant.

Feel free to ask if you have questions. 

SILLY, SICILIAN.

I used to see these Sicilian prints and puppets on my lola's purses and I didn't really respect them until now. They looked so glorious printed on D&G's Summer 2013 collection. You'll hear me chanting "Summer come sooner" over and over again just because I'm too excited to use this collection as a peg through the whole summer. Seeing loose short shorts handled by nice brown leather belts make me fashionably emotional. 

You do know that Domenico and Stefano didn't use real models on this show right? The men that walk here are really Sicilian boys handpicked by Misters D&G personally. Inspired by Sicilian personalities, climate and vices, this collection makes me want to live with them to be honest.
