Before I get started with my review, I just want to share that I currently have a COMBI and SENSITIVE type of skin. If you've been reading my blog for a while, you might notice that a few months ago, my skin was so DRY that why most of the products I share are for moisture. It's SUMMER here in the Philippines and now my skin is slowly going back from dry to normal to combi type. I still ave some dry patches but my t-zone for sure is so OILY!!! My main problem are blemishes and occasional hormonal pimps every month. I have a LOT of skincare products I'm trying and using to help me prevent pimples and hopefully improve my skin. 

 
A few weeks ago, I got to TRY a NEW LINE of skincare products from the Korean brand Face Republic.  
 

MILD CLEANSING WATER 
 
Product Info: A gentle cleanser formula that removes makeup, dirt and  excess oil on your skin. Can be used for cleaning or double cleansing. 
 
 
 
 
Weight: 160ml Price: Php299
Consistency: 
Scent:
My Thoughts: I can't live without cleansing water and this one really impressed me! I like that the consistency is watery and runny so it is not sticky nor oily. It leaves my skin that squeaky clean feels and it is not too drying. It can easily remove all the makeup that I have even the water proof ones (except Heroine mascara). Leaves the skin soft and supple. 

PH-BALANCING TONER 
 
Product Info: Preps the skin by restoring natural balance without stripping away its natural oils. For dry, oily and sensitive skin.   
 
 
Weight: 160ml Price: Php399
Consistency: 
Scent: 
My Thoughts: I'm looking for a toner that is not too moisturizing nor too drying and this is it. I've been using this as my everyday toner every night and it feels very light and fresh on the skin. I noticed that my pores got a little smaller with this. 

AHA/BHA TONER 
Product Info: A gentle toner that preps the skin and strips away dull and rough skin.
 
  
Weight: 160ml Price: Php499 
Consistency: 
Scent: 
My Thoughts: Been using this for 3-4x a week and I noticed that my pimples easily got smaller when I used this. I also have a rough and dry patches and it helps to soothe those areas. I noticed that my skin is glowing
roughness on my forhead has disappeared wuickly also the bumps and i also noticed that my skin is glowing I would really recommend it at using for nighttime and a little goes a long way
it doesn't sting at all, i love that it has no alcohol, i also love that it's mild enough for everyday use. After few days of using it my pores are visibly less prominent.

Price: ₱1,197/set (Click HERE for direct link)

Working as a NURSE, supplements are a MUST for me. For years, I've been taking Enervon-C as my main vitamins and now that I am aging (hello 31!), adding more supplements helps to boost my immune system. Having a good immune system helps you prevent and fights illness better compared to not taking vitamins. And with the current situation, one MUST prioritize his/her immune system. 
 
Today, I'll share with you the current supplements I'm taking for months. 

FERN-ACTIV
"B-Vitamins needed for the energy surge ideal for peak performance. It also contains non-acidic vitamin C for improved immunity, Zinc for added energy, vitamin D for stronger muscles and Calcium for healthy bones! B-VITAMINS are essential for your body to function properly and they may be the crucial link between your bodys requirements and peak performance. These vitamins convert proteins and carbohydrates into energy. They are also used for cell repair and production."
 

Each capsule is 500 mg. Bottle has 60 capsules. 
Comes in a white plastic bottle. Red packaging. Capsule is color bright yellow. 
 
 
 

Per 1 capsule:
Vit C 112.5mg
Calcium 85.04mg
Zinc Sulfate 2.18mg
Vit B6 730mcg
Vit B1 680mcg
Vit B2 670mcg
Vit B12 1.37mcg
Vit D3 67.92iu
 

How to Use: Take 1 capsule a day or as recommended by a physician 
  

MILKCA
"MilkCa is a bone health that derives its calcium and other minerals from milk. Because its made from milk, MilkCa is more readily and easily absorbed by the body. Calcium is also needed to regulate blood pressure, maintain nerve functions and keep our muscles healthy!"
 
Each capsule is 750 mg. Bottle has 60 capsules. 
Comes in a white plastic bottle. Light blue packaging. Capsule is color white. 
 
 
Per 2 capsules:
Calcium 336mg
Phosphorus 182mg
Magnesium 19.6mg
Potassium 9.8mg 
 
Recommended dosage: Take 2 capsules in a day or as prescribed by your healthcare provider
For adult use only. 
 
FERN-D (CHOLECALCIFEROL)
"Study shows that people who have high levels of vitamin D has a lower risk on having diseases like cancer, diabetes, tuberculosis, bone fractures, muscle weakness, and many more."

Each capsule is 1000 iu softgel capsule. Bottle has 60 capsules. 
Comes in a white plastic bottle. Yellow packaging. Capsule is color transparent yellow. 
 
 
Contains 1000iu Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) 
 

How to Use: Take 1 softgel capsule daily or as prescribed by a physician 
 

How I use them:
MORNING: Enervon C + Fern-Activ
NIGHT: Fern D + MILKCA
 
You can take these in the morning or night but I prefer taking the Fern Activ and Enervon C in the morning to get energize all throughout the day. These kinds of supplements are a MUST for me especially nowadays. I can proudly say that I've been taking daily supplements for years now as these boosts my immune system - prevents and fights any virus that I may acquire with work. In our current situation, taking MORE supplements are better to keep me safe (somehow) from acquiring not just the virus we have now but other diseases as well.

My current skin is starting to go back from being DRY to normal to OILY skin. Most of the times, I find my t-zone area extremely oily especially that it's now SUMMER season in the Philippines. Lately,I'm also changing my skincare and makeup products that would suit my oily skin. A few weeks ago, I got a NEW foundation that I've been loving and using at work. Yes, only at work. Since there's an enhanced quarantine (lock down) in Manila, almost ALL of the establishments are closed except the hospital, groceries, market, drugstores, etc so most are advised to just stay at home. But since, I'm a NURSE, I still go to work 2-3x a week. That's the reason I can still wear makeup lately. Haha
 
This is the NEVER BE THE SAME Matte Liquid Foundation from the Korean brand SelfCoding. It is a mineral oil-free foundation that can cover the pores and wrinkles - for that smooth and poreless skin. 
 
Key Ingredients: Avocado, Coconut, Jojoba, Rosehip

Ingredients: Cyclopentasiloxane, Glycerin, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Talc, Peg-10 Dimethicone, Dipropylene Glycol, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Niacinamide, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Magnesium Sulfate, Dimethicone, Polyhydroxystearic acid, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Stearic Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Tocopheryl Acetate, Allantoin, Persea Gratissima (Avocado)Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Butylene Glycol, Aluminum Hydroxide, Caprylhydroxamic Acid, Disodium EDTA, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Ribes Nigrum (Black Currant) Fruit Extract, Passiflora Incarnata Extract, Nelumbo Nucifera Leaf Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Titanium Dioxide, Water, CI 77491, CI 77499, CI 77492

It comes with a box and in a small sturdy matte plastic bottle. I like that it comes with a dropper-like tip so you can easily control the product. Less messy too! 
 
 
  

Weight: 30ml Price: ₱710 (Click HERE for direct link) 

It has 12 wide variety shades to choose. I got 3 shades: 03 Medium Light, 05 Gold Sand and 06 Caramel.
I like the shades that I got which are suitable for Asian/Filipino skin tone.
 
 
 

The foundation has a medium to full coverage and feel very lightweight on the skin. It has a MATTE finish. The foundation lasted up to 6 hours with my oily skin. 
 
 

Pros:
- Lightweight 
- Has Matte finish 
- Medium to full coverage
- Suitable for oily skin like mine
- Very handy packaging
- Wide range of shades
- You can mix and match the shades
- You use the dark shades for contour instead

Cons: 
- A little pricey given the amount of product
- Can only be bought online
