INNO PEEL REVIEW

How many times do we have to try in order to fulfil something even though it's not working out?This is the question that has been lingering on my mind for the past few days.When you have a problem but the solution seems far fetched.Dealing with pigmentation has been a struggle and a deep one.If you don't face something you will never really know what it feels like.
It changes your personality and social life.You become introverted and just don't have that outgoing persona but people don't really understand ,anyway that's a story for another day.
If I was taking a skin care degree I swear I'd have a PhD by now .The amount of time invested and research is just unexplainable.So this led me to something called Chemical Peel.It's a way of dealing with pigmentation.I really got tired of creams and having to wait I just had to find a way out.This inno peel had been recommended by my dermatologist a awhile back but I wasn't ready financially.The peel was to cost Kshs.8000 and being a student this was a bit on the upper side.So I opted out at that time .Luck was on my side and I got the money.In my head I was like is it really worth it ?What if it doesn't help at all?All that money down the drain it may not be alot but it is something .
I thought of  a cheaper way to get the peel like buying it on Amazon via vitu mob but it wasn't available because it's available only to professional aesthetians so my hopes were dim.I tried to get a pharmacist to create a peel for me and the salicylic acid one for 1850 but it kept haunting me that I should just follow the doctor's advice.
I'll have to fast forward so that this post doesn't become too long.My appointment was at 10:45 but being an African timer and this Nairobi traffic I got to the clinic at 11:40 and the doctor was about to leave but thank goodness.I was really happy because there was no one in the clinic.Atleast I wasn't going to get those wandering "eyes" from people.Let's just take a moment to appreciate how beautiful this clinic is and gives you that confidence that you are at the fight place .The interior and colour combination is just lovely.
I had a somewhat lengthy talk with the doctor literally pouring my heart out.I'm pleased she was very helpful and understanding that gave me a go ahead .Thereafter, she assured me that this was the best peel to deal with pigmentation.She later instructed her assistant to proceed and perform the peel
.I was taken to another room to have the peel done.I must say the place was just amazing to say the least.




The Inno Aesthetics company has various types of peels offered and to be specific I had the Inno exfo lightening peel.It's also called whitening or yellow peel.The active ingredients are :
Vitamin A 3%, Salicylic Acid 10%, Phytic Acid 0.5%, Arbutin 4%, Kojic Acid 5%.
Below is an image of the product and a brief description from various sources.




I'm guessing to make it easy to follow the whole process , I'll write up an article of my post peel as from day one .
This time I'm literally praying that it will work effectively even if it may not be 100% a 50+1 improvement will be good for me.

ZINC AND CASTOR CREAM


This article is related to my last article , the "wish list-one " and thank goodness I turned that to reality. In pursuit of my flawless goals I bought the zinc and Castor cream.I didn't actually get the exact brand the "bells" but I'm happy that I got something similar just a different brand. The zinc and Castor  cream that I got is from health point. This is a UK brand. I purchased this item in a last minute rush in some chemist in town.

It is a norm that women like to look good and keep up appearances therefore,will strive to do anything to maintain a good image.
Makeup has become such a powerful tool and it's hard to find ladies that are not necessarily into makeup nowadays.It's a daily routine and somewhat like a drug to some of us.

HAND ROUTINE

Our hands form a very important part in our body .They are among the visible body parts so it’s very essential that we learn how to take care of them .It is part of good etiquette and creates a first impression because it is often expected that we say hi or just do stuff like eating, writing, typing and a lot of other things.

SIMPLE LIP HACK

Ignorance is something that I'd rooted in majority of us. we never really care until perhaps we get affected. Let's take the example of the small 'elnino' that was there a few months ago.That's when all Kenyans turned into civil engineers ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚Yes all they talked about was how the drainage system is pathetic and how the roads need to be setup in order to prevent such flood occurrences. A few months later here we are again in slumber land till calamity strikes ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ.

EMBRACING OUR F - FLAWS

WOMAN CRUSH 2

The F word is one very controversial word .This word hits my thought and makes me want to write about it at 3!!!!While I should be getting some sleep .The F word in this context means FLAWS. This sends jitters down my spine. It’s something that drives me to insanity. Something so many people have not come in terms with especially for ladies.

EXFOLIATION ESSENTIALS TWO : DUDU OSUN SOAP

DUDU OSUN SOAP


Strange, weird and crazy were some of the remarks in my head when I first heard about this soap. Little did I know ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎthat this would be my " shining armour " lol๐Ÿ˜œ.
Choosing the right soap for your skin type is often quite a difficult process.  I have oily skin so this is a bit too hard to find the right thing to use. it's just a series of trial and error and trust me you I think I'm the ultimate tester of soaps ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚not in a good way though it's called desperation. I'm happy that I did that because I wouldn't have learnt what I know now.

EXFOLIATION ESSENTIALS ONE : ORIFLAME PURE SKIN SCRUB

ORIFLAME PURE SKIN SCRUB

I got this scrub after I joined the ORIFLAME group after much conviction from a sales lady. I had stopped using the St.ives scrub so I needed something else. I couldn't stand the fact that I can stay without a scrub hell no!!! Honestly,  I don't think the St.ives worked well with me. It was the apricot line which I felt had big granules that would create some noticeable "piercings"  on my face especially around my nose. I don't know how well to describe but it creates pores so I stopped.It was a bit too weird for me but I think it depends with a person because after reading some reviews online it's a deal breaker for most people. Anyway,  that aside u got the ORIFLAME pure skin scrub because I was at that moment of desperation all I needed was something! Oh well this is my take about it.
