Before the Lockdown and Online Shopping: Watsons Haul

Hello, Lovely Ladies!

How have you been doing so far? I've been cleaning every corner of the house and it has been exhausting. Thankfully, it has been helping me cope with the Coronovirus situation and keeping me productive.

One of the best ways I thought I could use the free time is to pay more attention to self-care. Hence, I did quite a bit of shopping at Watsons before the lockdown and the products I got are so useful in taking care of myself more.

Here are all the items I got:

1. First-Aid Items

When it feels like nobody understands, just know that you can just take it in. There will come a day, it'll all make sense without the need for explanation. Nobody knows and walks your journey better than you do anyway.

Coffee and Tea: Cafe Amazon

Cafe Amazon is located in many places including malls, and gasoline stations. My most favorite branch is beside PTT Gasoline Stations because the cafe is usually bigger with more seats, and free Wi-Fi! The interior of the cafe is calm, charming, and cozy.

Luxe Organix: Castor Oil Eyelash and Brow Growth Serum

Hello Lovely Ladies!


Fuller looking brows and long lashes are so in right now. I personally have long lashes but my brows are quite thin. Hence, I took it upon myself to search effective ways on how to grow my brows and lashes. Castor Oil has been the top recommended ingredient in growing hair which is why when I first saw the Luxe Organic Castor Oil Eyelash and Brow Growth Serum at Watsons, with its fairly affordable price of Php 99.00, I tried it out.

SKINCARE REVIEW | Garnier Skin Naturals: Multi-Action Brightening Eye Roll-On

Hello Lovely ladies! 

Skin Care Review | Garnier Skin Naturals: Multi-Action Brightening Eye Roll-On (by @TheGracefulMist | www.TheGracefulMist.com) 

If you`ve been around the beauty part of the web and have been browsing the stalls of Watsons and Beauty shops, Garnier`s Skin Naturals Light Complete Multi-Action Brightening Eye Roll-On isn`t new for you. I`ve personally been using this since 2017 and I first tried this because the under eye circles that I have are just embarrassing. No matter what homemade remedy I do, I still often have under eye circles and dark circles. Hence, I finally took the leap and got the Eye Roll-On so I can use it whenever and wherever.

SKIN CARE REVIEW | Body Treats: Charcoal Nose Pore Strips

Hello Lovely Ladies! ❀ 

REVIEW | Body Treats: Charcoal Nose Pore Strips (by @TheGracefulMist | www.TheGracefulMist.com)

Blackheads, whiteheads and other impurities; they`re all a beauty nightmare. They ruin even a supple and glassy skin. Not only do they ruin the pores of our skin, but they are also so visible and they ruin our make-up look too! Recently, I took a chance on using the Body Treats` Charcoal Nose Pore Strips and the results are not what I expected. 

Body Treats is one of the many brands of Lifestrong Marketing Inc., the distributor of my favorite Megan Detox and Lightening Peel-Off Clay Mask. Other brands that they have is Cathy Doll, HairFix, DermAid, BodyXPert, and Pretty Secret. Their mission is to "to develop and distribute innovative beauty and personal care products that satisfies customer expectation in quality and value for money." I believe that with the products they`re currently offering to the market, they`re in the path of fulfilling this mission. You may read m

ore about Lifestrong Marketing Inc., through their website.

If you`ve had the thrilling opportunity to browse around Watsons`, you`re probably already familiar with the brands they offer. Though I wasn`t too excited in using brands I haven`t tried before, I`m so glad I gave this one a chance!
