Certified Public Accountant Licensure Examination Results

Dear Lucy,

For the past month, my team and I have been working on a really big dream project that required all we had to give — time, energy, and sleepless nights. We sealed the deal but because I really am not a night person, my schedule has taken a toll on my eyes. They look tired, baggy, and wrinkled even when I feel I’m well-rested already. I look dreadful! If only I could wear shades at night! Help me find a good eye treatment, please!

Baggy Eye-Da

The first chance you get, go to any Rustan’s Department Store and get yourself Chanel’s Ultra Correction Total Eye Revitalizer. It is an intensive treatment that restructures and lifts the appearance of the eye area, correcting the look of crow’s-feet and undereye wrinkles, reducing puffiness, and lightening dark circles. It is a set of eye patches and a concentrated restructuring eye serum that work together in synergy. Use it for 10 days and see the difference. I tried  it after a harrowing schedule and I am happy with the results. Try it yourself.

The stress is on stretch marks

Dear Rissa,

Hello, I’m a mom of a three-year-old baby girl and due to my pregnancy, I have stretch marks on my abdomen. I just want to ask what cream I should use to lessen or remove my stretch marks. Can you help me on this?

Liz

I recommend Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks. (Palmer’s is available at all Rustan’s Essenses, Rustan’s Supermarkets, Shopwise, Duty-Free Clark, Baby Company, PCX, and Chimes Davao.) Its special combination of cocoa butter, vitamin E, collagen, elastin, and shea butter helps reduce stretch marks. This non-greasy all-over-the-body lotion lubricates the skin, keeping its natural elasticity and moisture. It really helps relieve the dryness associated with stretched skin and smoothes stretch marks due to weight loss. If you’re sensitive to scents, they also have a fragrance-free lotion available.

For hundreds of years, cocoa butter, a natural extract from the cocoa bean, has been used to moisturize skin and smooth away stretch marks and blemishes.  It also effectively softens and soothes dry or “ashy” skin. Even in this age of science and technology, cocoa butter is still what doctors recommend to help reduce stretch marks when used during pregnancy, weight loss, or body building.

What I really like about Palmer’s Cocoa Butter is it’s easy to spread on your skin. I’m not a fan of lotions that feel too thick and are hard to spread on the skin. Sometimes, I feel like my skin is being pulled as I spread the thick lotion! Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula was painstakingly formulated to increase cocoa butter’s natural effectiveness by making it easier to spread and absorb. Adding also vitamin E, Palmer’s enhances the soothing and softening effect on the skin. I  use Palmer’s lotion to moisturize my skin every evening after a bath, and I’m amazed at how easily and smoothly it can be spread on the skin. I love how it feels — really rich yet soft, velvety, and caressing. Absolute comfort to the skin. You have to like a lotion not just for the benefits it gives your skin but even the way it feels on your skin. After all, putting lotion is something you’ll be doing every day so you should also enjoy the experience.

Winning The Scar War

Dear Tingting,

My wife has had scars on her legs for the past 10 years now. You once mentioned a scar treatment called Cica-Care. Where is it available and will it work even on very old scars?

Jun Saldy

You can buy Cica-Care Adhesive Gel Sheet for Scar Care by Smith & Nephew at Mercury Drug Stores. Cica-Care is designed for temporary use in the management of both existing and new hypertrophic scars and keloids. It is also indicated for use as a prophylactic therapy on closed wounds, to help prevent hypertrophic scarring and keloids.

Unlike other treatments for scar formation, the product does not require application pressure with bandages or especially designed garments.

Note that Cica-Care is not to be used on open wounds.
