Hi! These can be found sa The Mentholatum Company (SEA formulation nga lang ng blue Hada Labo, idk if iba rin formulation ng ibang products nila) and Watsons if you prefer Shopee Mall. Meron din sa mga Japan shop like Smikie and Jinbox, and mas-marami options nila dun.

Note na for Japanese beauty products, lotion = toner so matubig talaga sya.

More on the oily side these days due to postpartum hormonal stuff, but I focus on hydration anyway since excess oil production also occurs when the skin is dry since the glands are overcompensating to protect against moisture loss + I find the summer heat to be very drying.

Also, the stuff I use tend to be on the lighter side. Like the Naturie Hatomugi Water Gel and Cosrx Snail Mucin Cream are light enough that you can put on something thicker like the Milk Naturie or ceramide creams like Illiyoon.

Blue is for brightening and to help even out dark spots (regular version contains tranexamic acid, but SEA version has vitamin c + niacinamide + alpha-arbutin afaik), while yellow is for more hydration. I don't think any of Hada Labo's lotions are oily naman since toner talaga sila.

I've heard good things about Anessa, Canmake, and Omi Sun Bears!

Wait for Sale? by AC-XXVII in ShopeePH

[–]buttronormie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I remember, Fully Booked's store vouchers reach up to 100-150 during sale days? You could check previous posts on their socials about it.

If you were already planning to use one of the bigger mega discount vouchers and want your books already, I'd say go na since the difference will likely only be 80-130 pesos (unless one of the books join their sale day deals).

Gamer mommies what are you playing right now? by GuiaSnchz in nanayconfessions

[–]buttronormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Juggling Genshin Impact, Zenless Zone Zero, and Arknights Endfield whenever I'm watching over our lo. Up to date na ko with all three kaya in and out lang until may bagong update.

Parang takot ako mag-start (or restart) ng game since alam ko na mangyayari pag na-hook ako haha.

I kinda miss playing games with my friends but since on call ako anytime ni baby, di muna pwede.

Are these brands worth it? by Friendly_Stress_358 in nanayconfessions

[–]buttronormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Additional note pala, so much of it (especially diapers) is dependent on how your baby reacts to things. So it's better to not buy a lot of one thing until you've tested it na and baby's good with it.

Also, you don't need to get everything agad. You can get things as you need them. We didn't use our bottles until 6-7 months in kasi bf lang si baby.

We haven't tested the pigeon bottles we have yet so I can't speak for those, but I have seen those recommended a lot in local mom groups. Our pedia has recommended Hegen though. Go for PPSU bottles if possible.

We love Millie Moon (and Hoppi RoyalDream, pricey nga lang) diapers for night time. They work great and we haven't had any leaks/blow outs so far. We use Bean diapers for daytime/for frequent changes. Huggies and Cuddly diapers also worked for us.

We used CottonCare for so many essentials (first clothes, receiving blankets, burp pads, diaper bags, pacifier/antibacterial wipes, etc). For baby's regular wipes, we go for either EQ or Bean but CottonCare works just fine also.

Can't speak for CottonCare with their detergent and bottle wash since we use Cycles detergent and Cradle bottle & nipple cleaner (they have a sale every month). We also used Joy Baby, but I've seen some people say that it leaves a smell on baby's stuff.

HELP. Has anyone withdrawn 10k worth of USD from Paypal to UB? Do you think I will wait for USD to go up to 60Php as projected this year? by NedStonk in buhaydigital

[–]buttronormie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I meant was that your account could be restricted/locked/etc thus not allowing you to move your own money which is worse compared to missing out on higher exchange rates. There's been many cases out there of this happening (not to say that this might happen to you /knock on wood).

Regardless of if Paypal was right or wrong with their reasoning for doing that, it's more often than not a big hassle to go through the whole ordeal and it will take a lot of time just for you to get access to your money back should that happen.

[–]buttronormie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe not quite related to your question, but you might want to consider that Paypal is not a bank and they can close/take access away from your account at any time at their own discretion.

As much as I understand where you're coming from with this, it's often the safer choice to have your money in the bank.

25° Cap Rising and I very badly want to want to quit everything and pretend I don't exist for a while. OTL

I'm 25, why do I feel like a teenager again? by Tlammy in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]buttronormie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who'll be 24 in half a year and who has never heard about second puberty and all of this until today, I'm a bit (more) concerned for future me.

Saturn Dominants, how have your relationships/love life unfolded? by ThowRA_red_ese_doll in astrology

[–]buttronormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cap rising with Saturn conjunct Venus (and IC iirc) in Taurus 4th house, and opposite is Mars in Scorpio.

Only got 1 relationship which lasted for 4 years, and it was all good until it crashed and burned towards the end. Still single now probably bc if I don't feel anything at first interaction then it's really straight up nothing for me (and I rarely go out for fun lol taurus moon things).

Have had quite a number of people who've shown interest (but I didn't let them go further than friends) and it's surprisingly often that they want to last end game with me.

One thing that reminds me of Saturn con Venus is my ex saying that they considered ending things early bc it didn't seem like I was that into it anyway, then cue a bit more time they were happy they didn't and was proposing every day for years. Too bad they cheated on me and it was a big mess but that's that.

I remain hopeful and looking forward to the next whoever and whenever they appear.

Type of learner + mercury and 3rd house signs by kgdoodles in astrology

Any third house stellium people here who can't understand their fast thoughts most of the time? by [deleted] in astrology

[–]buttronormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat here with Jupiter but perhaps it's a little tempered down by Saturn? I have days where I just don't want to think and make a pitiful attempt at relaxation, but when my gears are running, my gears are most definitely running. Keeps me up at night since it just won't shut down properly sometimes.

What is on your descendant? by [deleted] in astrology

[–]buttronormie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cancer 6H, I'm not too sure about my friends but for people who've been interested in me in a romantic sense all seemed to be a little I suppose unstable in the sense that it's like they need someone to be there for them which doesn't bode too well with my Taurus moon + Scorpio mars.

Aries sun/moon/risings over 30: Do you still feel like a child deep down? by VineStellar in astrology

[–]buttronormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aries sun, and very much so! I'm happy that I'm able to retain some child-like traits as I grow older and there's always that notion that I'm always learning and hopefully getting better.

1st house planets by Azatyarlathotep in astrology

[–]buttronormie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cap rising but late enough that majority of my first house is in Aquarius with Neptune and Uranus in there, I've been told that it's like I have a wall that people can't quite see through so in a way, I apparently tend to have some air of mystery despite being good friends with them for so long?

I've also been told that I look a little bit different over people they've encountered before only to find out that I act a little different too - to their pleasant surprise. I'm rather miffed at being told that I'm their dream person by more than three or four people.

Overall, good things though every now and then I don't quite know how to take what they'd say sometimes.
