Product Obsession: Lucas Papaw Ointment

I have seen so many rad reviews about this product online but never really gotten to purchase it sooner because 1, it's an imported product and there's no local drugstore carrying them here in PI. 2, I always just chance upon it online but never really felt the need or intention to own a tube. 

Recently, someone from Lexmark started selling stuff from Australia and had a dozen or more of these on hand so I got one out of support for her and for hoping to resurrect my ugly chapped lips. 

After one application which was exactly a minute I got hold of it, I felt an instantenous effect. It felt like petroleum jelly on acid. Yes! That fast!

I searched for more uses of this amazing tube online and learned that some people put it over their nails as mositurizers and alas, it worked wonders on my dry tips. I am not even exagerrating when I tell you that I use Lucas Papaw on my nails daily as compared to using it on my lips (cos my lips don't dry out as much). 

I haven't finished this tube yet but I already re-ordered a bigger one from my friend because it has become an absolute necessity in my everyday existence. 

Also, 2 weeks ago, I burned my lower lip from hastily tasting the pasta sauce I cooked for the fam and guess what? Lucas Papaw healed it for 2 days only. I kid you not, this tube is a miracle worker. 

Go get one now!

Product Obsession: Nuxe Dry Oil

It's been a while. I know everyone has transferred to a new platform which is Youtube. But really, ever since I deactivated my Facebook, I felt I needed a good place to write again. Currently, I am obsessing with looking for 'products that work'. In that fashion, I return to this abandoned space to blog about some of the products I've been using to make me feel my best.

My first one is definitely this:

Nuxe is a French brand that I came to the Philippines a few years back. This oil retails for 2150php but is definitely worth the splurge. This is a repurchase already and I love how the scent is clean and fresh but not overpowering. It isn't sticky as well which baby oils are known for. I especially love slathering this after I do a scrub bath because I feel like they soak through my clean skin.

If you want to feel extra on a special day or a bad day, this one's a pick-me-upper :)
