In the past decade, health and wellness awareness grew significantly throughout the skin care industry, and beauty aficionados are now more discerning over which products to invest in. Brands that use harmful ingredients or utilize animal testing are now huge taboos, while multitasking products that use organic ingredients and promote overall good health have taken the lead. We at Calyxta fully support this campaign to use beauty items that will improve your well-being.
Here’s our top 10 list:
1. Human Nature Soothing Balm, P295
This refreshing balm infused with peppermint, eucalyptus, and bergamot soothes away daily tensions with each inhalation. It is also used to treat body aches, dizziness, and mental fatigue.
2. Pili Essential Oil – Stress Away, P235 – P336
The oils extracted from Bicol’s famous pili nut apparently have multiple skin care benefits, and are the foundation of the local brand, PILI. Beyond skin care, this oil combined with eucalyptus, wintergreen, and ginger also invigorates your body, and provides relief for tired and tense muscles.
3. Alon Essences Sea Spray – Immunizing, P1,250
This sea spray fortifies your body and spirit with its fusion of fruit, floral, and herb essences. It’s multi-purpose, too. Use it on pulse points as a soothing balm, or put a few drops in hot water as aromatherapy.
4. VMV ID Monolaurin Gel, P830
This 100% hypoallergenic gel derived from coconut treats multiple types of acne. It doubles as a gentle sanitizer for hands and feet, cleans minor wounds, and acts as a skin mattifier when used as a makeup base.
Made of 100% thermal water, this hydrating, soothing, and protective spray is formulated with trace elements and mineral salts that promote skin radiance. Spray as often as you need throughout the day, and leave on skin to fully absorb its moisturizing properties.
6. Simple Micellar Wipes, P300
Micellar water is one of the new miracle ingredients the beauty world has been raving about. It is as gentle as plain old water but contains microscopic oil molecules called micelles that attach to dirt, grime, and gunk on your skin. Simply wipe it off and skin is gently cleansed.
