Shopping is every woman's therapy after a week-long battle at the office. We all want to pamper ourselves, and with all the products out there to help us to solve our simple problems ranging from personal to household must-haves, being brand-conscious up to a certain degree is a prerequisite to being a smart shopper.
I personally just got into shopping a few years back when I got to earn my own money to spend. In fact, I only had my Body Shop, Healthy Options, and SM advantage card last year. In line with that, I just want to share some of the products I find these days that I just cannot live without:
Skincare:
- Cetaphil mild cleanser
- Jason tea tree oil, shampoo and conditioner (from Healthy Options)
- Burt Bee's pore minimizing green clay mask (from Beauty Bar)
- S.O.S. Clindamycin Phosphate for pimples
- Body Shop shower gel
- Modess Cottony Soft sanitary napkins
- VMV powder & foundation
- Bioessence rejuvenating toner, scar reducing cream, and sunblock gel
- Gatsby oil control film
Clothes (Big sizes)
- ForMe pants (fits well for my size)
- Wacoal or Marks & Spencer underwear
- Payless shoes & socks (the ONLY place I can buy shoes my size)
Services:
- Freshaire salon for my hair dyeing needs (allows me to color only the regrowth of my hair)
My shopping philosophy is to splurge on the basics for skincare, healthcare and food and do away with the unnecesarry expenses like movies, bags, accessories, and trinkets. Maybe if I earn more and if ever I live on my own the next few years, I'll add some household and kitchen brands on this list as well :)
