A Fun Run, A Toner and A Facial Moisturizer

Our family have decided to join another fun run. This will be the second time that all four of us will join – me, my hubby and our two teenagers. The first time we ran was the 2M run of Market! Market! Power Mile Run Year 2 last May 17, 2009.


On March 7, 2010, we will join the 5KM run of Unilab Run United For Wellness at the Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. It is a wellness event for the family with running as the core activity. There’s a 500m dash for kids, 3km, 5km, 10km and 21 km. It is for the benefit of the Children’s Hour and KIDS Foundation.


We have already registered so we’re all set to go. Upon registration, you will receive a race kit with singlet, timing chip, bib no, runner’s guide and Unilab freebies. We got the following Unilab freebies: a Solmux chewable tablet, a Conzace Multivitamins + Mineral softget capsule, a ColdEase Herbal food supplement softgel capsule, a 250ml Celeteque Oil Control Toner and 50ml Myra E Daily Sun Protect Facial Moisturizer.


I think all these are new products from Unilab. We have not used any of these products yet. I am particularly intrigued by the Celeteque Oil Control Toner and Myra E Daily Sun Protect Facial Moisturizer. I checked the Unilab website and these products are not yet listed there.

The Myra E Daily Sun Protect Facial Moisturizer comes in a white box with orange accents. Here is the information in the box:

I haven’t decided yet on whether I will try and use these products. I will have to check the reviews for these products. I might try to use it first in my other body parts like the arms just to have a feel of it.

Have any of you tried these products already?

Natural Homemade Facial Mask

Here's a natural and easy to make facial mask. It can be used for any skin types even sensitive skin. It cleans, moisturizes, softens and whitens your skin. It also helps dry pimples.

You only need two inqredients usually available in the pantry: Evaporated milk (or any liquid milk) and calamansi, the Philippine lime (or lemon or lime).

• In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of 1 regular size calamansi (approximately 1 tablespoon). Remove the seeds.
• Add 4 tablespoons of milk.
• Mix the two together until it forms a curdling, rich, creamy texture. Note: You may experiment on the calamansi and milk proportion depending on how much acidity you want in the mixture.
• Now that tha facial mask is ready, make sure that your face is clean. Rinse your face with water then dry it.
• Clean your hands and use your fingers to apply the mixture on your face and neck. Make sure to avoid the eyes.
• Leave the mask for about 5 to 10 minutes or until it is completely dry. Your face will feel tighter as the mask dries up.
• To remove the mask, rinse your face and neck with plain, warm water. Dry off.

Now feel and see the difference!

You can do this once a week or once a month.
I first tried this when I was in high school and I still use this up to know although not as frequent anymore. My face has remained smooth and soft.

Eskinol Facial Cleaner

I had been using Eskinol Facial Cleanser for a long time now. I started using it when I was in high school. I had been using it daily not just for the face but for the whole body.

There are many variants but I specifically use Eskinol Natural Calamansi: "Enriched with the natural skin whitening and cleaning properties of real calamansi. It also has vitamin C which keeps skin healthy."

It really removes dirt and makes skin tone even - lightens blemishes, scars. It is like a toner and leaves skin smooth, refreshed and clean.

You can order Eskinol Natural Calamansi Facial Cleanser and other personal care items online, from KabayanCentral.com, the World's Filipina Personal Care Products Store.
