BELO Essentials
Whitening
Anti-perspirant Deodorant
Before I never had any interest on Belo Products because I always think that they just produced such products from soap to lotion to deo because of Dr. Belo's dermatology services' popularity and by being celebrities' dermatologist.
My friend used to tell me that the Belo soap worked for her, but it never crossed my mind to try any of their products because for me they are expensive and they might just be giving false promises and just to make use of their name's popularity, that happened when I was still in college though.
Now, I've already graduated in college and years have passed that I've been trying different brands of deodorants. Namely, Rexona, I also love their deo because it really doesn't make my armpit sweat but still I tried another brand because I want something that will also make my armpit lessen its darkness and that 'chicken skin' thingy, while keeping it smelling good all day.
Then, I tried ** because a friend of mine said it really made her other friend have a lighter underarms. So I tried and finished one bottle that is said for whitening but never bought one again after, because of two main reasons, it did not made my underarms lighten and I sweat a lot easily which makes it smell bad. (eeWwwiiee ^_^ )
Then, I tried Dove since it also promised to lighten your underarms but same as the **, it doesn't lighten my underarms and I easily sweat.
That's why I went back in using Rexona because it might not whiten my underarms atleast it doesn't smell bad. ^__^
When my three small roll-ons of Rexona were all consumed, I said to my self why not try Belo. I've seen Anne Curtis' commercial about it and I said nah her armpit is well-maintained by the Belo Medical Group and they used technology to make it whiten and some girls are blessed to have this white underarms with vey tiny not-so-noticeable hair. But I've tried so many products but I haven't tried this one. So I look for a small one so if I'm not gonna like it, I don't have to wait long to change it. I bought one and it only costs 50.00 + I already forgot its exact amount but I'm pretty sure it's around 50.
*This is the front view of my first Belo product that I've tried.
*The back view of it with its direction and its desirable effects.
The first time I used it, there was nothing really special but after I plucked my hair on my underarms, I was amazed because its not as worse as how it used to look before every after I pluck.
Yes, I do pluck my hair on my armpits because going to a clinic to have it waxed or used with thread costs around 150.00 and that's a lot for me already. Although, they will recommend those procedures rather than plucking because it will help your armpit appear lighter and less chicken skin, well if you do have a budget for that every month, why not, right? :)
Then back to the deo, when I touched my skin after plucking it feels smooth and the chicken skin has been lessened. I just continued using the product until now and I love how the deo smells because it does not have that strong smell and when you smell it, it has this mild scent. It doesn't make my armpit sweat even after a long active day. Also, it slowly lightened my underarms and it really took so long before the hair started to grow. I really laugh everytime I look at the mirror, sort of worried because I really thought no hair will grow again. ^__^ The hair grew but now its way finer than before.
I know sometimes it will took long before we'll find what product suits us best, be it in cosmetics or supplements. Other products that might have worked for me, might not work for you. I hope you'll also find what best suits you and there's nothing wrong in trying.
And this is for my first impression and testimonials about Belo deodorant.
How about you? How do you find the Belo deo product?
What other deo product suits you best?

Gloxi Highten Health Drink
For those who wanted to read a testimonial from a first-hand user of this height enhancer, here it is.
My first use of Gloxi was last December 2012-February 2013 and as what I said on my previous blog, I'll be buying another set as soon as there is money to buy it.
As what I also mentioned before, it is really expensive. One box of it costs 2,980 which is only good for 15 days since you have to take it twice a day. And you may save a lot if you'll buy three boxes because the fourth one will be for free and discounted up to 8,500 for four boxes good for two months.
It is recommended to use it continuously, unfortunately I stopped after two months of consumption. But good thing, I'm now back on track ^__^
The saleslady also mentioned that if you stopped twice, on the third time it won't be that effective anymore. I hope I heard her right, so if you're planning to start be sure that you can sustain it continuously.
I'm also thankful that it still has this aching sensation that means it's working on me, eventhough I stopped before. For me, I base it on the aching sensation, other than my height measurement of course, because on my first try, I observed that when you follow the Do's and avoid the Don'ts it aches a lot especially at night but when I did not follow the tips I don't feel any aching sensation on that day.
Also, effects may vary as they said, others may experience the effect after two - six months but for me, in less than a week I can already feel the effect and I'm planning to check my height one of these days.
And since I haven't posted photos of my previous boxes/ ampules, I took photos of my current set along with my previous remaining boxes with descriptions.

*doesn't smell good. (you'll get uses to it.. LOL!)

Nose Line
Been wanting to have a semi-permanent noseline?
Permanent and yet semi?? hahaha...
I tagged it as Semi-permanent since you don't need to line your nose everyday like putting a contour on it using a contour powder or lining it using a brow pencil. It is something that you can be selfie-ready without retouching it every now and then. You can even take a selfie as soon as you wake up and still have that noseline.
Well, in this case you will only be ineeding one thing. No need for brush, contour powder or even a mirror. You will only be needing one thing, and I'm actually talking about a WHITENING CREAM or any other alternatives as long as it makes or effectively whitens your skin.
It was just accidental when I discovered that I can actually have an instant nose line without putting makeup on.
I have this dilemma with blackheads so I bought a product from Avon which is intended for blackheads. Since, I always put it on my nose where my blackheads are, I suddenly noticed that that particular part became lighter than the bridge of my nose and other surrounding part. And since it's already a bit obvious, I decided to include the bridge of my nose and parts where I actually try to lighten when I put nose line.
From then on, I used it as my nose line.
When that product was already consumed, I only have a whitening cream for the red spots on my face so I still included applying on the bridge of my nose and it remained to be lightened. So everytime I take a selfie I don't necessarily have to put a nose line neither edit my photo nor have this side angle just to make my nose appear long on photos.
I hope this helps ^__^

Baby Out (Philippines)
Congratulation!
Your long wait is almost over! You're about to see the result of the combinations of you and your partner's genes :)
Obviously, I wrote this blog for all expectant mothers and/or fathers out there who in no time will welcome their babies in the real world :)
This is about what are most of the things that you should prepare for the moms and for the babies to bring in to the hospital when you are alreay due for delivery.
For Moms:
1. Clothes to wear in the hospital
- something comfortable, like a long dres you use when you're just in your house.
2. Pair of Slippers
- it will be a lot easier to go in and out of the bed and walk around the room with this especially when you want to take a bath.
3. Ponytail
- you will have difficulty combing your hair every now and then especially when you have an IV insertion already, and when you lie and get out of bed.
4. Underwear
- have something comfortable panties for you to wear for you to easily remove because there might be Internal Examination or when you're already in the Delivery Room.
-nursing bra and/ or a comfortable brassiere
5. Pen
-there will be papers to sign pre and/ or post delivery.
6. Toiletries
- shampoo, bath soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, bath towel, etc.
- you may also want to bring tissue (but some hospitals do provide this in their kit),
alcohol (more hygienic and easiest way to feel clean once in a while instead of going back and forth to the powder room to wash your hands)
7. Magazines or anything to keep you busy and/ or divert your attention.
8. You may also want to bring a pillow you like that would make you feel comfortable and feel at home.
9. Camera
- you may want to document your delivery or ask a delivery room staff to take photos of your baby once s/he's out (but some hospitals doesn't allow cameras)
you can use cellphone cameras instead and take photos of you and the baby once roomed-in.
10. Charger (and cellphone)
- you may recharge your phones to give updates to your relatives and friends, and whenever you need to communicate fast when processing your documents.
11. Others
-ID Cards, requirements for you to avail your insurance package like you or your partner's birth certificate.
- breast pump -> other Mom's will need enough stimulation before having enough milk for their babies.
-water container for hot water, because some Moms won't have enough milk on the first few days. The nurses will ask you to either ask a friend who is also a nursing mom for some breastmilk (preferably of a newborn baby) or buy a formula milk to give temporarily until there will be enough milk coming out from you.
You will need this to sterilize / so as to soak on another container the feeding bottle you will be needing. This is of course possible only with a waiver signed by the mother.
-makeup - you may want to put some when you are about to.leave the hospital so as to make you look good and feel good. :)
- have your nail polish removed days or a month before your due, you'll never know when will you give birth or if you are due for normal delivery or thru Cesarean Section.
For Babies:
1. Clothes for your baby:
-mittens
-socks
-bonnet
-big square cloth to wrap your baby with
-diaper
- shirt (longsleeves or sleeveless)
-long pants
*with extras
2. Most hospitals do give kits which includes:
-thermometer for the baby
3. Hygiene
-bibs
-wet wipes
-alcohol
- Body Wash for babies - a staff will also teach you on how to bathe your baby
- baby's bath towel
4. Comfort
-small pillow for the head of the baby
-small blanket or a square cloth used to wrap the baby can also be used
5. Others
- changing mat ( to avoid soiling the bed while changing diaper).
- other Moms wont have enough milk for their babies on the first few days, the staff will ask them either to ask for breastmilk from others (friends or from the other breastfeeding Moms; it would be preferably coming from a Mom of a newborn as well) or provide their own formula milk. Although, formula milk is prohibited in the hospital you may inform them about the inavailability of breastmilk and will be using formula milk for the mean time, and they will be letting you sign a waiver regarding such matter.
I hope this would somehow help you in your preparation for your delivery.
May you have a prepared and safe delivery. ^______^

I want to be TALLER!
I'm pretty sure many people can relate to
me in hoping to be taller!
Although I'm not that small, but I wish I
was taller :(
But when you are like me who likes to join
beauty pageants I wish I was taller.. knowing that they prefer taller girls
*sigh
Alhough we've been taught in our Anatomy
and Physiology class that growing for females end at the age of 16 (if my memory serves me right.. that is 4 years after the start of your menstruation), I never
stopped believing and trying that I can still get taller.
I would say I have tried most of the height
enhancer supplements known (commercialized) and not that known in the
Philippines, namely: Cherifer, Growth Facilitation Pill, GroTall, Grow Up,
Gloxi, Growth Balls and the first one that I can't recall the name.
I won't make claims that one is really
effective while the other is not, because lifestyle and what we eat also
affects their results. I'll plainly make descriptions, state my opinions and
state my experiences with each pill as far as my memory can recall.
Lets start with the first one that I've
tried.
1) Unfortunately, its the one I can't
remember the name anymore. It was my Aunt who gave it to my Mom so I will take
it to help me grow taller. I was still in high school then and I forgot what my age was at that time. It was a small circular tablet and there were many of
them in one pad (just in case you've tried one before same with my
description).
I think it was 100 tablets that was given
to me but I havent seen any significant change in my height.
2) Cherifer
This supplement is a bit expensive, I think
it costs 16.00+ each capsule. I took a lot of this product from high school
until I reached tertiary level but haven't seen any significant change.
3)Growth Facilitation Pill
I already graduated in college when I tried
this product. As far as I can remember, my mother bought 3-4 small plastic
container of this product. It's a bit expensive especially at my age, the
recommended dosage is 3 capsules per meal, so I have to take 9 capsules per day
(oh..my liver and kidneys). I forgot how many capsules each container contains
and they already threw the containers so I can't give concrete number but I
think it was 100 capsules each container.
This time I saw a little change with my
height and even some of my friends noticed that I grew taller.
4) GroTall
I bought this in a pharmacy in our place.
It costs 12.00 (i think) per
capsule. It is contained in a square box,
with a boy and a girl drawing on the front of the box. Haven't seen any
significant change.
5) Grow Up
My mom bought this in a Chinese store at
our city. It is not expensive, I've seen really small change with this product,
somehow.
6) Gloxi
I've seen the commercial on the television,
it was on Channel 13 in our place. It's the most expensive growth enhancer
among others. It costs almost 3,000 each box which contains 30 ampule-like and
you have to take two ampules (its like an ampule without its long neck and
you'll be using a little straw, that is incuded inside the box, to insert it to
the circle of the ampule to create a hole). I wish I can show you the pictures
I took with the Gloxi product but our laptop where I saved the photos is
already damaged :(
One box will only last for 15 days. My
mother bought me 4 boxes, because they had a promo where when you buy 4 boxes
instead of paying 11,000+ you can buy it for only 8,500.00 (big savings!). The
4 boxes were good for 2 months, but just like what they said you have to take
it continuously. Unfortunately, my mom and I didn't understand each other..I
thought I have to stop after that because 8,500 is way to big but she said how
come I didn't remind her that I was already running out of stocks (oh
my..that's memory gap, Mom --sign of aging :D )
It doesn't taste good unlike what they said
in the commercial, but its bearable.LOL!
This is way different from all of the
others that I've tried. I followed the instructions on the commercial as well
as the note that the sales lady gave me.
These are the things that I can recall:
*no fatty/ oily, salty, junk, processed
foods
*no sodas
*eat more protein-based foods
*do exercise (I didn't..hehe) I just did
some stretching
*8 hours of sleep
*drink milk
..etc.
What makes it different is that you can
really feel and see the difference. When I sleep early and I'm not burnout, my
knees ache as well as my feet. That's why it comes with 3 pain reliever cream
when I bought the 4 boxes which you can apply when your joints are aching. The
cream doesn't smell good ^___^
(When I purchased the Gloxi they also gave
me 2 facial masks, which is one of their products.)
If we'll have extra money, we'll buy Gloxi
again because its really worth the price.
7. Growth Balls
My Mom bought this and how I wish she did
not. It costs almost 100.00 each ball. But since there are 4 balls contained in
a square tin container, I have to consume all of them. You have to take 1 ball
per week, with the same do's and dont's of Gloxi, and that you have to refrain
from taking it when you have your period.
Its taste s*¢×$!!! and it felt like I was
punished for its taste and smell. I felt a little knee pain and didn't care to
evaluate its result for I don't have plans to let my Mom buy that again. T___T
.
P.S. I wrote this blog so I can help others
who are also hoping to get taller like me :) It was really time consuming to
find a product that will best suite you that's why I'm giving my testimonies to
help you save time and money and wished there was also someone who made a blog
like this, so it would've been much easier on my part and made me saved more
money.
And my statement "I have seen a
significant change" it's not merely based on a subjective one, of course, I
compared my height before and after.
You might also want to share your own
testimonies feel free to share them in the comment box :)
