Pond's Gold Radiance Youthful Night Repair Review

It's been a while since I made a product review. Oh well, it's time to share my experience with Pond's Gold Radiance Youthful Night Repair (with real gold microparticles) Cream! I've been using this night repair cream for almost 2 months now.  I have forgotten the exact date I used the cream, but it's almost 2 months already, hence it's a perfect time to express my likes and dislikes about this product. I have acne prone, oily skin, so do take that into consideration as you read my review of Pond's Gold Radiance Youthful Night Repair.

Accordingly, throughout the history, GOLD has been used to beautify the skin. Cleopatra's believed to have used gold to retain her youthful appearance. GOLD has also been used in many skin products before and today.  GOLD is a glittery pricey ingredient, so normally, you'd expect these GOLD containing beauty products to be heavy on your pockets. And Pond's Gold Radiance Youthful Night Repair along with the complete GOLD Radiance line from PONDS is no exception. The price for 50g Pond's Gold Radiance Youthful Night Repair is at 899 to 999 pesos.  But one 50g jar can last probably up to 3 months. So while it is expensive, it can last you months of usage.

There's a spatula included in the product. It's a pretty good addition because it ensures you don't spread bacteria from your face to the cream.

 The product should be used ideally at night, but there are times when I'd use it in the morning especially when am just at home. The cream has this fresh smell which I like.It is not greasy when applied onto the skin. You just need a small amount of the cream per application. One thing I noticed however, is when I apply the cream in the morning. My skin tends to be more oily though out the day. Hence, I suggest you use the cream only at night.

You can definitely see the gold particles glittering on your face upon application of the cream. The cream gets absorbed by the skin so well. You can instantly see and feel your skin moisturized. It also provides some sort of coverage for your blemishes. But I won't recommend this as a base for your make up. It does make your skin oily or at least that's what I noticed.

 Now, let's highlight what the product claims and review it on that context.  Based on the packaging, which I don't have a picture to show because my camera's battery just went dead, it says:

"Wake up revived, refreshed and younger looking. Infused with real gold, this luxurious cream works while you sleep to regenerate your skin's own youthful radiance."

Sounds good! ayt?! Is there a truth to this claim?

I must say "YES!!!"  (and I just added three exclamation points to it)

Pond's Gold Radiance Youthful Night Repair cream does work for me. Every morning, I always see my face  refreshed, revived, more moisturized, more plump, and firmer. I'm not sure if it did make my skin younger looking, but obviously am not seeing too many fine lines especially on my forehead.  Unfortunately the product didn't lighten my acne scars. But then in the first place it's not meant to lighten scars, but I just thought I should mention it.

So will I purchase again? Yes if I can allocate some budget for it. I still have the 50g jar which should last for another month. But am definitely excited to try the other range of Pond's Gold Radiance :)

Till my next product review!

How To Get Unlimited Referrals on any PTC Sites?

Are you a PTC site member? When I first started making money online, I ventured into PTC sites initially. Click and make money! That's basically the concept in Paid to Click Sites or PTC Sites. Nowadays, you are not only paid for clicking, but you are also paid for participating in surveys, competing offers and even for playing games.  The sad part with PTC programs is you are paid cents per click. You click an advertisement, open it for 15 to 30 seconds and get paid $.001 cent for it.  It will take days of daily clicking until you reach your payout, which typically range from $1 to $10.  But despite this, thousands of wanting to make money online surfers join PTC programs on a daily basis. You might wonder why! Even if one commits himself to slavery in clicking too many ads daily, the earnings just won't compensate for the effort and the time spent! Exactly! I agree with you on this point!

But, not everyone is earning cents with PTC sites. Not everyone is making pennies. There are many out there who are making hundreds to thousands of dollars every month from these PTC sites!

 

 And I will tell you the secret to this!

 

DON'T WORRY THERE IS NO REFERRAL LINK HERE!

 The Secret: ACTIVE REFERRALS!

If you are to join or is already a member of a PTC site and you have no intentions of expanding your downline or referrals, then you will just gonna be earnings cents forever.. Referrals, ACTIVE REFERRALS is the key to making more money with PTC sites. This is where many PTC members fail. They join PTC sites, actively click on the advertisements but has no effort to promote their referral link. Result: cents!

Try to do this. Instead of actively clicking the ads, actively look for new referrals daily. Trust me when I say, you make more money not by clicking the ads but by finding new referrals. But how can I find new referrals, you might ask.If you are a lazy person or if you have some money to spare, then get the:

PTC Referrals Explosion Guide

(opens in new tab or new window)

This is one of the cheapest yet most valuable PTC guide out there. It can help you get active referrals daily. Be sure to follow the guide! The methods are all in the guide. If you follow it by heart, you will make 20 referrals to 50 referrals daily.  I got 18 referrals the first day I implemented few of the methods in the guide. Of course I added my own twist to it. So good luck to you!

(I did not include my referral link in this article because I already have so many referrals on a daily basis, and I don't want you to think, I'm just making this post to increase my downline :))

Lactacyd White Intimate Whitening Feminine Wash Review

The first time I saw the commercial on TV about the Lactacyd Whitening Feminine Wash, my initial reaction was "Oh really, may ganun?! lol". Never have I heard of a whitening feminine wash before. Whitening creams for the face and body are all over the market, but a product to whiten a woman’s intimate part is a new one! Yay! So this product came as a surprise and drew curiosity out of me and perhaps to many ladies out there. Thus, the moment I saw one on the shelves of Watsons for under 60 pesos, I immediately grabbed it for testing. hehe.

The first question that popped to mind was does it whiten the outer surface of the sexy V or does it also whiten the minor general and the major general (sorry can’t spell it out but you know what I mean), as well as the black hairs on the mountain top? Lol..

Then the second question was this, how white can the V get with this whitening feminine wash? Can we use a whitening meter for this, similar to garnier’s and pond’s?lol..

Third question, can we see proof that this product works? A picture paints a thousand words and it sure spells out proof! Hahaha.. Okay, that’s mature! But oh boys you all love to see proof yayt?? And it is wrong to assume that which is yet to be proven! Hahaha.

Fourth question, what marketing strategy will work for this? My other persona has voluntarily suggested few marketing jingles “Isang Banlaw” (parang downy), or “Isang Babad ka lang”, “Binabad lang pumuti na”..awt! hhahaha

Fifth question, how come there is no intimate whitening wash for males, so a man can whiten his balls too? Are we seeing some discrimination here? Man, you’ve got to sign the petition for an intimate whitening wash for men! (:} And my other persona has suggested a jingle for this too “Whitens dark circles!”(parang pang eye bags lang) hahahah..

Final question, will Lactacyd Whitening Feminine Wash whiten my V? To know the answer you will have to wait for the before and after photos! Hahaha.. But wait, according to the product description, it will whiten your V in 4 weeks, so be patient people! Hahaha.

But, seriously, am not posting before and after photos…who are you kidding, me?!

Malunggay Leaves for Pimples? My Story!

Have you heard of applying malunggay leaves for pimples?  Have you even tried putting it on your face? Well, I did for over a week. And here is my experience.

I was suffering terribly with huge cystic acne that it was so embarassing to go out and talk to people. I lost my confidence because of it. I stayed home if I could and only go out when it is really important. People who saw me were all commenting about my pimples and how they have ruined my face. Those comments magnify the low esteem that I had. I felt depressed. It was a low moment for me. 

Before, I also had acne problems and I found a solution that worked well for me. It stopped all my acne. But then I was too lazy and so I forgot about the regimen so the acne backfired. That wasn't long ago. That was just last June 2012. Traces of the my worst acne experience are still visible on my face. I have scars all over my face, over 20 of them mostly in tiny spots, that look like freckles. But am acne free now, hopefully forever!

So what I did, was I applied Malunggay Leaves on my face, entire face, and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to as long as 30 minutes. Malunggay leaves have anti-bacterial properties plus many other healing benefits. I was so desperate to get rid of my acne so it didn't hurt to give this "herbal solution" a try. And so I did that for over a week. Initially I was doing it twice a day, morning and evening for 3 consecutive days. Then I'd skip a day or two before I apply the regimen again. It really did work. Now I am acne free. No acne on my face, none at all (except for the scarring). 

I don't recommend doing what I did, but if you are that desperate, and you've tried everything else to no avail, the call is on you! Malunggay juice helps to fight pimples, prevent pimples and heal pimples faster. It also helps in lightening scars.

Let me reveal exactly how I prepared the Malunggay Leaves:

1. Get enough Malunggay Leaves that you can use for the day.

2. Wash it with water.

3. Use mortar and pestle to crush, grind the malunggay leaves or if you have a blender you can use that. I personally use the blender at home. I just add half a glass to 1 glass of warm water, then blend the Malunggay Leaves.

4. Apply the malunggay juice on the face for 10 minutes or more.

5. You can also create a Malunggay Mask using tissue paper. I'll teach you how to do it below.

How to create Malunggay Mask Using Tissue Paper:

1. Cut the tissue paper into strips.

2. Pile the tissue paper strips one after the other depending on the thickness.

3. Now scoop some malunggay juice and put it on the tissue paper strips. The tissue paper strips must have the right amount of malunggay juice but not too much to avoid dripping.

4. Put the tissue paper strips on your face, avoiding the eyes, and mouth areas.

5. Wait for at least 10 minutes before removing the tissue paper strips.

Using tissue paper strips prevents dripping so you can still do your normal daily routines while on the regimen. I warn you, you will look like a "mummy" if you do this.. lol..

Please do a skin test first before using this regimen. Also always use fresh malunggay juice to avoid irritations. And yes one more thing, in combination with this regimen I apply the following:

• Eskinol Cleanser with Dalacin C
• Skinmate Shark Oil

Personal Time Frame of Usage: Over 2 weeks, this month of August.

That's it. I hope you also get to put an end to your pimples/acne. Remember that what might work for me might not work for you. 

FYI: I don't use malunggay juice daily now. I just apply it once a week for maintenance.
