My Take
First of all, please forgive me if my Cream Silk bottle looks so beat up in this photo. Sample Room didn't send it to me looking like that. They always send fresh products. I was just soooo excited when it arrived that I decided to peruse it prior to taking photos. By the time that we got to a camera, the bottle wasn't cute anymore. 😆 Anyways.
Cream Silk Triple Keratin Rescue Ultra Conditioner list of ingredients and other details.
This product promises to tame frizz, revive and restore damaged hair with its Keratin content while also maintaining the vibrancy of the color and it speaks to me as I've had those procedures done this year. I used this product around the time that my regrowth (and therefore my real hair damage) was already showing.

After using this, I can say that I just have neutral feeling about it. You know, I don't hate it but I also did not fall head-over-heels about it. My hair feels smooth at the start but as I hit the PM I can see the frizz coming. Knowing that my hair is too dry and too frizzy anyway, it would take a miracle and a hair iron to totally tame it. But I love the sweet smell that it has and that even if the day has passed my hair still smells good and fresh. It also helped maintain the vibrancy of my hair color.

Will I buy this? Maybe not this variant but I will still keep buying Cream Silk conditioners as a whole. They make some of the best hair conditioners in the country after all!

My Take
This treatment creme is my favorite in this bunch! First of all, I love the sweet floral scent and how it stays sweet throughout the day. Above all, it really performs well in taming the frizz and taking away the dullness. When I started using this, I realized that for my hair type, I really need something more than just the daily conditioner. I needed something richer to be used once or twice a week to pamper my crowning glory.

Will I purchase this again? Big YES!
Vaseline Healthy White Fresh & Fair Cooling UV Gel Lotion
Price: Php 318.50 for 300 ml/Php 202.00 for 200 ml/Php 116.00 for 100 ml

What is it?
Get all of the fairness and protection without the stickiness with Vaseline’s first non-sticky lotion, Vaseline Healthy White Fresh & Fair Cooling UV Gel Lotion! It comes in a light, non-greasy gel formulation that contains 10x Vitamin B3, SPF, and cooling menthol to restore skin fairness, to protect the skin from sun’s UV damage, and to provide a fresh feel throughout the day under hot and humid climates. It’s also infused with micro-droplets of Vaseline Petroleum Jelly, the holy grail of skin healing, to provide moisture to the skin and to help repair the damage deep within.

My Take
This lotion, being the gel type, is perfect for those who can't take the heavy feeling of having creamy or sticky lotion on the skin. Yes, they exist. :) Thankfully I am just chill about it when it comes to lotions; I can take the creamy type or gel type. However, I want it to be something that is easily absorbed by the skin and something that will keep it feeling soft and smooth. This Vaseline lotion does both of that. I also love the light and fresh scent. It says that it has UV protection however it is not indicated if how much is the SPF content. That's a bummer for since I prefer something that has SPF 15 or more with it. On making the skin fairer in 2 weeks, I also did not notice any changes on my skin based on those claims.

Will I purchase this? I would say no. But there is another Vaseline product that I have used previously and I'm glad that I decided to take a photo of it for reference. It's the Vaseline Healthy White Serum with SPF 30 PA +++. It' s also lightweight but it has everything else that I was looking for in the Gel Lotion like the SPF and the brightening effects. So don't fret Vaseline. You didn't loose a customer in me, it's just a matter of preference. ;)

Hey Sample Room, it's been a while. :)
If I'm not mistaken, this is only my first haul from them for the year 2018. 
I think I stopped ordering sample products when my debit card stopped working for online payments
but now that it's been upgraded to the one with EMV chip and it's working fine, I'm back in business. 
These products caught my eye and thankfully, I had enough points in my account to cover them all. I always prefer ordering stuff that will be useful to my daily life so I got a perfume to keep me smelling fresh, a conditioner for my DDD (dry, dead, damaged) locks, and a controversial piece that will be very useful when that time of the month comes. ;)

Here's a rundown of all the products in my latest Sample Room haul.

Soleil et Lune (Brigitte)
Bursts of fruity essence for the woman who uplifts like the sunshine wherever she goes. The opening is fresh with crisp, dewy green notes, blackcurrants and petit grain. This is followed by a lusciously ripe heart of succulent nectarines and acacia honey, all resting on a warm base of vetiver, peach and plums.
FULL SIZE: 10mL / 30mL / 50mL
PRICE: PHP 380 / PHP 780 / PHP 1180
Soleil et Lune (Brigitte) Review and Rating
I may have mentioned in this blog that I am easily nauseated with perfumes. Thankfully, I didn't experience any headaches when I first got a whiff of Brigitte by Soleil et Lune. This scent reminds me of Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom and Honey albeit Brigitte is  tad heavier and sweeter than the former. It makes sense though because as the description says, the heart of this scent is "succulent nectarines and acacia honey".  I am a fan of fruity scents so this fits the bill.
If there's anything I can complain about this product I'd say it's the longevity. It never seems to go beyond the 2 hour mark on me.  Rating: 3/5

Cream Silk Fresh Hydration Conditioner Review and Rating
I think it goes without saying that Cream Silk is still the leader in the Conditioner market in this country. It remains a favorite because it is affordable and is of good quality and of course this Fresh Hydration is no exception. The formula is less thicker than their regular conditioners but it works just fine in keeping the frizz in check without the greasy feel. However,  I think I still need more in the hydration department. And the 24 hour fresh feel claim is too tall for me. Rating: 3.5/5

Ladouce Tampons (Mini)
"Each Ladouce Tampon is designed to provide the highest soft and safe absorbency for all users. Mini tampons are best for beginner and/or women who have light menstrual flow. Normal tampons are best for moderate menstrual flow, while super tampons are best for heavy menstrual flow."
FULL SIZE: 1 box (16 tampons)
PRICE: PHP 199
I have yet to review this product mainly because as I write this blog post, I am still waiting for my period. 😃 I have zero experience when it comes to using tampons so I don't know what to expect. I was just surprised though, when I opened the box. I expected the tampons to be bigger but it's just about the size of M16 bullets. LOL. Now I'm wondering if how much blood can it actually hold. I will be making a separate post about my experience in using tampons.

That's it for now.
And it's always a pleasure doing business with Sample Room.
