Dandruff in the Headlines!

// August 10th, 2007 // 3 Comments » // Hair Love

Seriously!

If you read today’s issue of Manila Bulletin ( Friday, August 10, 2007 ), you won’t be seeing the usual everyday news about the nation – lookie, lookie, I’ve even scanned the newspaper!

The headline says, ” RP Battles with Dandruff : 44% of Filipinos Have It” It’s definitely a fresh change from the usual headlines that I have been reading everyday. No political jargons “solon”, ” moratorium”, etc. If I would have those headlines to greet me everyday, then I would be more motivated to read my daily newspaper !

Try these at-home hair ideas, that will sure make your hair beautiful in no time!

Mayonnaise. Thalia is said to have this beauty secret under her sleeve, and you can do it, too! Massage onto hair, and make sure to rinse with cold water, not warm ( I can only imagine how it’d turn out if warm water is to be used ! )

The Beauty and The Mud ( Oily Skin Edition )

// August 7th, 2007 // 5 Comments » // Skin Love

I can never expect more the laugh, funny look , or even the words, “what the heck did you put on your face?” whenever it’s mud-pack day for me. Well, I can take all the madness the world has to give, but I won’t last a week without it. ( okay, someone who just figured that out is as old as me! Hahaha ! ). I mean really. Mud packs aren’t just there to..look like mud. They are there to beautify, beautify, and did I say beautify?

There are lots of mud packs/ facial masques available, and first, I shall be discussing the one for oily, and acne prone skin.

Yes, even during bedtime, I DO have a Kikay Kit. I have a table-full of products just beside my bed, simply to make my sleeping time the most luxurious and relaxing one. As an insomniac, sleep for me is indeed a luxury, and my bedtime kikay kit includes alot of sleep-inducing, aromatherapy stuff from beads, sprays, oils , and all that stuff. My newest addition? Something that I silently took from my baby sister’s kikay kit : Johnson’s Baby Bedtime Lotion. (more…)

Be Lipbalm Crazy!

// August 3rd, 2007 // 6 Comments » // Lip Love

The weather’s just crazy, and it’s getting chilly, as the air preps for the Ber ( or brrr as I call it ) months to come! I just noticed awhile ago, that my lips were feeling a bit drier than usual, and it’s actually great to arm oneself with a lipbalm in one’s kikay kit starting now until the end of the year to keep those lips well-maintained, loved, and be kissable! ( Mistletoe season is near, too! snicker )

I have three picks for Lip Balms, that are stellar in terms of quality, yet will fit the budget of our fellow kikays and kikoys.

Kikay Kit Must Have :Retractable Makeup Brush

// August 1st, 2007 // 2 Comments » // Kikay Tools

I’ve notice how messy and inconvenient it is to bring a regular-sized makeup brush during gimicks, or just any occasion, specially when your purse is small. With the thought in mind, retractable makeup brushes are there to save the day just when you want to do a simple retouching in the ladies room, or want to bring something really compact, and mess-proof.

I admit that retractable makeup brushes aren’t as durable as regular sized makeup brushes, but hey, they do their job well, and it will all be definitely worth it with all the convenience that it gives off! A huge plus would definitely be the cap which does not expose the brush to dirt inside the bag. Talk about great hygiene ( just be sure to religiously sanitize the brushes! ) (more…)
