whats your age ??

This was a question left for me in my formspring account. It's not that I'm ashamed of my age, but seriously, it's very weird for someone to not introduce themselves and then just ask me how old I am O_o Come on people...

Reader Questions

Happy New Year Everyone! Before I start an official post, I'd like to answer a couple of questions readers left for me on my formspring.

Q: Where can i buy mama lotion?
A: I bought my mama lotion (now called M2) from skincarerx.com but they don't ship to the Philippines. I believe it's also available from amazon.com and in local derma offices as well.

Q: Hi, where did you buy ur urban decay palette? Can u send me a link to the seller? Thanks for being a doll.. ^^
A: If you're referring to my Naked palette, I bought it from http://carefreeshopper.multiply.com :)

That's all for now everyone. Happy New Year again!

Ask Me

A: Regarding this, it's best to ask your derma. I can't really answer that for you :)

Musicalfan Loves Minerals Readers' Corner

Hello everyone! I'm happy to report that my laptop is in working order again. I have a lot of unanswered questions from my formspring so I'll try to answer them as best as I can.

More questions regarding pixel:

Q: how many stacks did your derma use on your face? my derma told me she'll use 1 stacking only but then "sayang".. though she assured me that it's gonna be effective. I really want the pixel treatment on my depressed scars but I am scared of the downtime! 

A: I'm not really sure what you mean by stacking but if you're referring to how many passes my derma did on me, she did it twice. Like they say, no pain no gain!

Q: how scary are the scabs? do they literally fall off randomly? 

A: Yes they fall off randomly. Think of it as something like peeling except that instead of  clear skin coming off, it's scabs. Scary is a very objective thing. It really depends on how you perceive it :)

Q: hi crystal! what perfume do you wear? i like light scents a lot (think d&g light blue and anna sui) but i want to try other scents, care to suggest a few? thanks a lot

A: Unfortunately, I can't be much help here, because I'm not really into scents that much. I'm very fond of light scents, too. If you want other light scents, you can try GAP Dream (my all-time favorite!), DKNY Cherry Blossom, Elizabeth Arden Green Tea, Elizabeth Arden Pretty, Paris Hilton. If you want to go darker--well I don't have much experience with darker scents, but the Dior line is a good choice. Of course, perfume differs on everyone because it reacts differently with our skin. I actually like Tommy Girl, but it smells terrible on me!

Q: what is the best BB cream for you? 

A: I've only tried two BB creams: the pink Legere and the Skinfood Aloe, so I really can't give you much input. BB creams are a costly addiction so I'm giving up for now :)

Ask Me, Part 2

Another series of questions about pixel.

Q: thank you so much for answering my questions! :) ung peeling lang ba yung naging problem mo by 3rd day or may extreme swelling and burnt look pa din? I plan na mgabsent by 3rd day, so by 4th day, am I gonna be at least A LITTLE okay na?

A: Hi sis, of course each person will have a different experience, but for me, it's best that you don't go out until your 5th day. The scabs are brown in color, so until those parts peel off you'll look like you have thick brown gauze on your face. If you're really morena, it won't be as obvious than when you're on the fair side. your skin will also look pixelated that's why it's called pixel laser. In my experience (and I had it done twice already), i peel the most during my 4th day.

Q: may i ask pa ulit ano intensity ginamit on your first pixel treatment?

A: I think the intensity of mine was 1100. Your doctor will decide which intensity he/she thinks will be right for you.

Ask me!

Ok, this is actually a series of questions about pixel laser which i will try my best to answer. These were asked through formspring.

Q: read about your pixel laser treatment.. san ka nagpalaser? i plan kasi sa ust..
A: I had it done in Transcom building near Tiendesitas.

Q:can i face my patients (intern) by 3rd-4th day after pixel laser treatment?
A: In my opinion, no. by the 3rd day, my skin was really peeling and i looked like a snake who was shedding its skin. it's not pretty :P in my experience, i didn't look decent until the 6th day.

Q:can i wear makeup kahit face powder lang by 3rd-4th day?
A: you can wear makeup the day right after pixel but in my opinion, face powder won't make any difference. pixel will make you really red, and then slowly it will turn brown with some scabs. before the peeling, you can get away with using a heavy coverage foundation/concealer, but no makeup will cover the peeling :)

HTH!
