🇺🇸🇵🇭 Filipina living in America
One thing about me? Every time family or friends visit from the Philippines, I always have a little shopping list ready. 😂
Most of these goodies are from Watsons, with a few Shopee finds I specifically asked my family to bring over.
🤍 Luxe Organix lotions — affordable, accessible, and honestly so good.
💋 Lucas Papaw & Lip Ice — my lip care staples for soft, moisturized lips with a natural tint.
🧼 Kojic soap & lotion — I don’t use kojic as much these days, but I wanted to give them a try. As for the Habibi Babad Soap, my friend was ordering one, so nakisabay na rin ako. Plus, I love supporting small businesses. 🤍✨
🧤 Exfoliating gloves from Shopee — hindi ka talaga malinis kung wala nito. HAHAHA. 😂
😂 My Tita/Trentahin Essentials:
• Efficascent Oil
• Omega Pain Killer
• Aceite de Manzanilla (for those hindi natunawan days 🤭)
• Mini Johnson’s Baby Oil because travel-size things make me happy.
🌿 Katinko Inhalers — because you never know who you’ll end up sitting next to. 😷😂
✨ Milcu — I don’t usually need deodorant, but Arizona summers are a different story. I use it on days when I know I’ll be sweating because I’d rather not deal with sweat stains on my clothes. 😂
💜 Betadine Feminine Wash — one of my personal care staples.
It’s funny how certain products can instantly make you feel closer to home. Some things just hit different when they’re from the Philippines. 🥹🤍🇵🇭
What Philippine product can you not live without?
