Problems with Acne? What is your shampoo?

               Shampoo may cause acne? Yes, you heard it right. If you are having big troubles with your acne your shampoo may be the culprit.Most of our shampoos contain Sodium Laureth Sulfate.. This is an ingredient to make our shampoos foamy. Toothpaste, liquid soaps and some detergents also have this. For most people SLS is an irritant.
               For most, it cause allergies or acne. When I've had facial impurities, I asked my derma why I have these small itchy bumps on my forehead and on the sides of my face. She asked me what my shampoo is. Yes, because everytime we rinse, some of it may go to our face. Well during that time, I was using Head and Shoulders. Then she explained to me that most of the known shampoos in the market can cause allergies. "Masyado matapang". I think for some,it causes acne.
              She told me to use a baby shampoo. The mildness may help me solve my problem. I tried using Johnson and Johnson's No more Tears Shampoo. It was ok but my hair was full of tangles. Then I noticed that the bumps are still there. I tried to look for the right shampoo. Thanks to google for explaining it to me. I'm not alone. Most of the people in the US have this kind of dilemma and they used SLS-Free Shampoo. Shampoo without sulfate. I have also read an article when the girl loved how Tresemme made her hair so beautiful but noticed that she got BACNE. She found out it's because of the shampoo. Johnson & Johnson's also contain SLS so I tried looking for a local brand that is SLS-free.
                   I found one in watsons. The GOLDEN FABULOUZ KERATIN with ARGAN OIL Shampoo. 159.00 only. I've been using it for 3 months and so far my forehead is ok. To add, sulfate-free shampoo is good for treated hair like those who've been into Brazillian or Rebonding or Hair Coloring because it doesn't strip-off the color or the hair treatment solution. There are other brands aside from what I am using.(The said product has availability problems so I switched to Mondes Professional Morocco Argan Shampoo, also SLS-Free) Just try to look for the ingredients of the shampoo and say goodbye to shampoos with SLS. Take note, if you have pimples or allergies on your chin, maybe it's because of your toothpaste that also has SLS. Also try to look for SLS-free toothpaste. I am using Sensodyne. Or if you can't find SLS-free toothpaste , try using plain toothpaste, those that do not have any other colors, just the plain, white one. I hope I have helped. Be beautiful...Thanks for your time . :)

Review for Celeteque Hydration Facial Moisturizer

REVIEW FOR CELETEQUE HYDRATION FACIAL MOISTURIZER First of all, thanks for giving Grasya's Diary a sight. Today, I will be giving you an updated review for Celeteque Hydration Moisturizer.  I used to have oily skin, but due to some topical treatments and cleansers, I got a combination skin after. There were dry patches after weeks of using my creams so I asked my derma if I can use a moisturizer. She told me I can but I just need to put  on to dry patches in order for me not to have an oily face again. I was  confused with her statement because I know that even you have an oily skin, you must still use a moisturizer, just pick a water-based then.  So I still use it for the whole face hehe. I was using Myra-E before but I feel it's kinda heavy on my face so I tried this Celeteque Hydration Facial Moisturizer.  Again, to reiterate, can we use Moisturizer even we have oily skin? Yes. Oil is different from moisture. Sometimes our skin tends to oil-up because it needs mo

Smashbox Photo finish Primer versus Benefit Porefessional Primer

Smashbox Photo finish Primer versus Benefit Porefessional Primer   First of all, Happy New Year and Happy Valentine's Day... Hahaha... Yes blogging is back; it was never gone. I was just too focused with my corporate job but I am here now... and we will keep the ball rollin' So today, I will be reviewing 2 primers; Smashbox Photo Finish Primer and Benefit Porefessional Primer. It would be a comparison review. But let me define what a Primer is. Primer is a product applied on the face prior to foundation to ensure that the surface or canvass will be smooth, poreless, refined and sometimes used to prolong the staying power of the foundation; as it also can control oil. Imagine painting your wall? We use primer first before the paint right? Same thing on our face. There are difderent types of primers but today I will just focus on the 2 mentioned brands; Smashbox and Benefit. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe those brands are part of the high-e

Review for Naturactor Cover Face

Beautiful day ladies! Today I will be reviewing my favorite foundation this season. Yes, for this season because I tend to change foundation. For those who are asking, this is the same review posted in my FB Page but I just did some revision with the format and with the wordings as well. Why am I so into this foundation?  Do I love this product? Let us see. So here's the verdict :  CHARACTERISTICS: ● Naturactor is a make-up from Japan and I love Japan make-ups. It was named Naturactor Cover Face since it is really a concealer but because of its good coverage, it can be used as a foundation.  ●The texture is velvety, and is a cream-type of foundation. ●It smells like an “oldies make-up”. What I meant was the scent of the make-up before of our grandmoms has quite difference with today’s fragranced make-up. If you are sensitive with the smell of a make-up, this may be an issue.  VARIETY: ● Cover face has 5 shades, but there are also other variants as shown belo
