A month ago, I experienced bad breakouts which made me really sad since it's hard to deal with a pimple what more if there's a lot if pimples to cure! Since the breakouts left a lot of red spots and blemishes, I was so desperate to help my skin clear up. Last August, I decided to finally try the Crystal White Skincare Whitening products. 

 
But before I get started with the review, I want to share that it's my struggle to have an even skin tone. I do have an acne prone skin thus making my face lighter than the rest of my body. The reason I'm using or trying whitening products is to have an even skin tone especially for my body. It's been my struggle for years and up to now, I'm still looking for products to help me lighten my body tone. 

Last July, I recently discovered a new whitening skin care line here in the Philippines! It's from VitaNutriscience which is the same makers of the famous Snow Caps, Snow Skin Whitening Soap, Snow Skin Whitening Cream, Snow Skin Whitening Lotion, Snow Toner and the Acne Care Line. I've already tried most of the products from VidaNutriscience and I can day that it's a really great brand so I have a high expectations to their newest whitening line. 

The Crystal White Skincare line offers affordable whitening products for every Filipina. I've used the products for more than a month and below are my final thoughts: (*Please also take note that while using these products, I still so my usual skincare routine)
 


Crystal White Skin Whitening Soap (Php 59.00) helps to make your skin whiter without drying out. it is formulated with natural ingredients that reduce appearance of dark spots, fine lines and even has anti-bacterial properties which fights off free radicals that can damage the skin. It has Crystal7 ingredients to make your skin softer and whiter for days.
 
 
  
Weight: 90g
Packaging: This comes in a white box and the soap itself is sealed in a plastic. The soap itself is color violet. 
Scent: Very fruity and sweet
How to Use: I cut the soap into 2 parts (1/2 for the face and 1/2 for the body). I use this soap to clean my face along with my other soaps. I immediately rinse it after I scrub my face. For the body, I usually leave it on my skin for 3 - 5 minutes. I use this once in the morning and at night. 
 
FINAL THOUGHTS: For the face, I like that my face feels squeaky clean after I use this though there was a slight tingly sensation and peeling during the first few days of use. At times, I use this soap on my pimple itself and it helps to dry up the pimples. I like that the soap doesn't dissolve easily. 

Crystal White Skin Whitening Toner (Php 99.00) – not only cleanses the skin but evens out skin tone to reveal radiant white skin. it has Ph 5.5 to gently moisturize the skin and effectively removes the dirt and impurities. It helps to remove dead skin cells, minimize the pores and removes acne and blemishes.
 
  
Weight: 100ml
Packaging: The toner comes in a white box and the bottle is a sturdy plastic one. The toner is transparent. 
Scent: Sweet and fruity
How to Use: I use this right after washing my face. Since not all the dirt can be removed from using a soap, this toner helped to deeply clean my skin from dirt. I use this toner at night and in the morning before I put on my make up. It actually helps to prep the skin. 
 
FINAL THOUGHTS: During the time that my face was peeling, this toner helped to make my skin a little moisturized. The toner can easily be absorbed by the skin. I like that this toner is not too harsh nor too mild on my skin. I believe that this product helped to tone down my pimples. 

Crystal White Skin Whitening Cream (Php 149.00) – helps prevent aging with its potent Crystal7 ingredient to help whiten the skin. Derived from natural ingredients, it helps to reduce fine lines, age spots, minimized pores, remove dead skin cells and moisturize the skin for that natural and healthy glow. It also has SPF30 for 30x more protection against UVA/UVB rays.
 
 
 
Weight: 30ml
Packaging: This comes in a box and the cream is in a sturdy small tub. 
Scent: Smells like a normal cream, powdery.
How to Use: After the toner, I use this for my dark spots and neck area only (not on the entire face since I do have a white face skin tone). I use this 3-4 a week, every night. At times, I use this on my neck area in the morning. 
 
FINAL THOUGHTS: I like how light it feels on my skin and it actually helped to somehow lighten my blemishes. Sometimes, I use this on my neck area on top of my makeup. Yes, I do put a light makeup on my neck to even out my face and neck tone. It is non - sticky and lightweight. It somehow helped lighten my neck skin.  


RESULT: (Soap, Toner and Cream)
 


Crystal White Whitening Underarm Spray (Php 139.00) – derive from natural ingredients, it helps to brighten uneven skintone and prevent odor. It also helps to moisturize the underarms for that supple and smooth skin.
 
 
Weight: 50ml
Packaging: This comes in a sturdy transparent plastic spray bottle. The liquid is in color purplish pink. 
Scent: Fruity and sweet.
How to Use: I use 2-3 sprays every night. 
 
FINAL THOUGHTS: I don't have a problem with underarms but it I was surprised that it helped to brighten up my underarm tone, 1-2 shades lighter. It is non - sticky and light weight.  

RESULT: (Underarm spray)
(UP - BEFORE, BOTTOM - AFTER)
 
 

Crystal White Skin Whitening Body Lotion (Php 269.00) – is a whitening and anti-aging lotion that contains whitening actives that locks in moisture to prevent dryness, exfoliates the skin for that smooth and clear skin. It also has SPF30 for 30x more protection against UVA/UVB rays.
 
 
Weight: 200ml
Packaging: This comes in a huge plastic bottle. 
Scent: Powdery
How to Use: I use this on my arms and body 2x a day.  
  
FINAL THOUGHTS: I'm addicted to this lotion as it really helped to lighten my body tone especially my dark spots like the elbow and knees. Since I have a dry skin, I like that this lotion leaves my skin soft and smooth. It is very moisturizing and lasts for about 2-3 hours. Since this has an SPF 30 which protects my skin from the harmful UV rays, 2-3 hours staying power of the lotion on my skin is enough while I go to work (commute). 1 bottle would last long and I still use the lotion up to now. 


RESULT: (Lotion) (Current Skintone - Sept 2018)

Overall, I think Crystal White Skincare products are an underrated whitening products that needs to be known and tried by those who are really into whitening. I love all the products as it really made my skin brighter and lighter. My skin is still healing due to a bad breakouts a month ago but I'm glad that I took the risk and tried this locally made product. It really helped my skin to heal and prevent pimples! Road to brighter and blemishes free skin (hopefully!!!) Will keep you updated with my skin and these products. Thank you again Crystal White Skincare! :)

I rarely post about my personal life or what has been going on behind this blog and my Youtube channel. I used to be so vocal with my thoughts and opinions when I was younger but due to the fear of being judged, not meeting expectations and pressure from other people, I decided to keep things private. Who would want to read about other people's lives? Or even mine? Right? 
 

Sometimes, I miss my old self. The old blogger I was. The one who used to speak her mind and share her opinions about things and life.  The one who doesn't care about what others would think. 

But no. This blog post is not about rants or what's not. I just realized that it's been more than a year since I "promised" to update you guys with a little something about my life. Here's the Life Lately I posted last May 2017. A lot of things have changed over a year. I always think about how different I was a year ago. Funny how a year changes you A LOT. 

So what's NEW?

Hello, breakouts!
Yes, hello. They're back. It's been almost 2 years since my last acne breakouts and here they are again. I thought my skin is already better but after using this certain product for review, I think it finally triggered my sensitive skin. Currently battling with the cystic acne and small breakouts here and there and it actually affected my reviews. I'm back with my old skincare routine though slowly I'm incorporating new products to my skin. That's the reason why skincare reviews are delayed. :( Don't worry since I'll be sharing with you my skincare routine or what products helped me during this phase once my skin is 100% clear. 

A little something for my Blog and Youtube channel. 
I started sharing the products that I love and foods in 2014 - 2015. And I feel so happy that I'm able to reach out to different people through this blog. Knowing that I helped a lot of girls who deal with the same problem and how a product somehow helped them, makes me feel satisfied with the craft I'm doing. Slowly, this blog is growing as well as my channel though I know there's still a lot to improve. I know there's still A LOT OF THINGS I want to share. Also, I want to connect to more girls out there! :)  

Even though I'm a small time blogger/Youtube content creator, this year more brands/companies/online shops are reaching out to me and trusting me with their products. I got a chance to attend to different events wherein I get to see a lot of famous Youtuber and bloggers. At time, I have a mix emotions since I doubt myself if am I really in the right place. Though at the same time, I feel so thankful and honored to be invited in these events. 

These events helped me to break my introvert side and mingle with different people. Also, I got a chance to meet different girls and gained new friends.

In line with that, I'm so happy that this year, someone trusted in my capabilities and gave me new opportunities to grow and improve. Won't say too much but if you follow my Insta stories maybe you know this one by now. :) 

FOODS. 
I miss foodtrips! I remembered eating at different restaurants for 1-2x week and taking photos using my phone. I wasn't particular with the "quality" of the photos during that time since my main goal is to share my experience and how the food taste. Until I got a camera in 2015 and that's when I pressured my self into doing food reviews. I was so competitive to be on the top with the goal of eating at different restaurants for at least 2-3x a week. Until I grew tired of doing that and focused more on the beauty stuff. I LOVE FOOD. It's my first love! Currently, I'm back with eating at different restaurants for 1-2x a week but I rarely post a review nor take a photo of the food I'm eating. Haha At times, I'm too lazy to bring my camera so I opted to use the camera of my phone. I kind of miss the times when I just use my phone camera to capture everything. I call it raw-blogging. haha Luckily, there are still A LOT of food invites even though I'm not that active with food blogging anymore. Thanks to Zomato and some friends who ALWAYS invites me to these food events! :) 

Reconnecting with NEW and OLD friends. 
This year means reconnecting with friends. Old and new ones. Yes I'm old (I KNOW!) but what I mean is reconnecting with my real friends whom I've known for years. This year is all about looking back and keeping your feet at the ground. Some people may misinterpret me but who really cares? I'm at the point of time where I don't really care about how people would think of me. Friends are there to accept you for who you are, help and support you. I value friends a lot and they're one the people who keeps me sane. I'm glad that I also got to know who my real friends are this year. And glad to keep connected with those who I seem to forgot. Not only that, I surprisingly GAINED a lot of new friends just because... YOU KNOW!! hahaha 

TAKING THINGS SLOW.
I learned not to rush things and to value the TIME and essence of WAITING. A year ago, I was in a rush with a lot of things especially with my career. I'm almost 30 by next year and it feels like I'm always on a deadline with things. Last year was a bit of a TURNING POINT. Made decisions and TRIED everything I needed to do. Completed everything that needs to be done. I even got to the point that I was agreeing to every terms that was offered to me even though the truth is that my heart says NO, THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANT. I was about to take a risk. A risk that might change me. I was unsure, I doubted myself. I know that wasn't the right thing to do. Was it worth the risk? 

Made a decision to take things slowly this year and give myself a chance to think of my career, my dreams, and my life. Made me realized a lot of things. Those BAD decisions I made turned out to be a LESSON which helped me to decide to takes things slow and learned to the trust the process.

THEY WERE RIGHT. I WAS RIGHT not to rush things. 

PLANS. GOALS. FUTURE. 
My goal this year is to take my time to reflect on my self, on WHAT I REALLY WANT and WHAT'S THE BEST FOR ME. To travel, explore and create new things. This year is all about GROWTH and knowing myself better. I'm trusting the process and getting there for sure. 

TIME FLIES BY SO FAST. I'm a different person a year ago and I'm MUCH better now. Last year was a life changing one. It was a hard process and may SEEM TO LOOK BAD AT FIRST but I'm so much thankful for all the mistakes I did because from there, I learned a lot of lessons and eventually viewed it in a POSITIVE way. I learned to appreciate small things and be thankful for that small joys. Thankful for family and friends. Thankful for the people who are always there for me.  Thankful for the opportunities. Thankful for the mistakes that helped me to be better. Thankful for the beauty of life. Thankful for God and His continous blessings. 

Things may not seem to go our way but believe me, God will always have better plans for you. Trust the process and enjoy what you have. In God's perfect time, we'll get there. :) 

I may look okay with all the things going on but hell yeah, I'm good. I just decided to remain silent and choose to react to things that really matters.Not sad but kind of okay with what's happening with my life. Not that too happy but happy enough. You know what I mean? Just stable. Chill. 

There's still a lot of things I want to tell you about but this might be a very long blog post to read. Hahaha You can check more about my LIFE UPDATES on my recent YOUTUBE video below:
 
And thank you dear reader for patiently reading this life update. Will keep in touch soon! :) 
Pond's will always be one of the few brands I've ALWAYS used over the years. I remembered using their facial wash when I first reach my puberty years where my skin started to oil up. Plus I also remembered using their facial creams on my skin during my teenage years. Glad that in this generation, the are expanding and growing throughout the years. 
 

Today, I will share with you some of their famous whitening products which I already heard last year but haven't tried until now. It's the Pond's Flawless Radiance Derma+ Line which has DermPerfectTM Complex Technology which works from deep within your skin for that spotless, pore less and luminous skin. It contains Vitamin B3 + Hexyl Resorcinol which prevents melanin formation and skin darkening. It claims to achieve #DermPerfectSkin in just 4-8 weeks! 
 
 

Ponds Flawless Radiance Derma+ BB Cream SPF30 PA++ 
  
This is a makeup and skincare in one which helps to achieve flawless makeup look while providing skincare benefits. It helps to conceal dark spots, blemishes and uneven skin tone. With it's SPF30 PA++, it helps your skin from the harmful UV rays and protecting it from within. Formula is very light has a semi-matte finish. Good for everyday use. 
 
  
 
 FULL SIZES: 8g/ 25g PRICE: PHP 189.00/ PHP 389.00 
   
What I think about: I find this BB cream very light on the skin and I love the natural finish it gives. Not only it protects the skin but also gives you the skincare benefits. I personally love this small sized version as it I can always bring it around and perfectly fits my kikay kit. 
  
Ponds Flawless Radiance Derma+ Hydrating Day Gel SPF15 PA++
 
It's a gel cream which quickly absorbs into your skin for that refreshing and hydrating feeling. It has SPF15 PA++ to protect your skin. Best for normal to oily skin.
 
  
  
FULL SIZES: 10g/ 50g PRICE: PHP 185.00/ PHP 599.00
 
What I think about: What I like about this hydrating gel is how light it feels on the skin. Right after washing my face, I put a small amount of the hydrating gel before I put on my make up to prep my skin. I love how it gives that right amount of moisture my skin needed plus protects my skin while going to work.

Ponds Flawless Radiance Derma+ Moisturizing Day Cream SPF30 PA+++
 
Deeply moisturizes the skin plus has SPF30 PA+++ to protect the skin for that spotless, pore-less and luminous skin. It has 3 derma treatment-inspired actions to strengthen skin’s natural energy deep inside, and help give a new level of flawlessly radiant skin. Best for normal to dry skin.
 
  
  
FULL SIZES: 10g/ 50g PRICE: PHP 185.00/ PHP 599.00
 
What I think about: Since I do have an oily skin, my skin prefers non-moisturizing creams. I use this moisturizing cream 2-3x a week focusing on the non-oily parts of my face. It is truly moisturizing so I do recommend this for normal to dry skin. 

Watch the mini review on my Youtube channel below: 
 

RESULT:
 
Currently, my skin is suffering from bad breakouts and the pimples left red marks/blemishes on my face.  I've only used this products for a few weeks now but I already love how it helped my skin to become soft, smooth and hydrated since some parts of my skin are a little bit dry due to the acne products I'm using on my skin. Not only Pond's Flawless Radiance Derma+ helped my troubled skin but it also protects me from more damage caused by the sun. So I want to thank Sampleroom PH and Pond's Philippines for letting me try these products!
