Homegrown Pimple Patch That's Got Personality - MATCHY PATCHY

Ever had that moment when you prepare so much for an event and when it's just about to happen, you wake up with a huge pimple on your face? I've had that happen to me several times, and I think what I'm about to tell you is good news.

There exists MATCHY PATCHY, it is the first of its kind pimple patch in the Philippine market, which was launched at the Mix Tape Halloween Party at Imajin Arts and Music in Marikina today. This all in one pimple patch gives you all day protection, absorbs oil, and is very kind to your skin. This can patch up problematic areas and see visible results in about 6-8 hours. It dries it out, simple, but it's something more than that.

Although there are some pimple patches in the market, this is quite different because it comes in different designs and become a tool for expressing yourself. This is also formulated and made in Korea, but it's conceptualized and fully owned by Filipinas. They have always been keen on releasing it to different markets, not just local, but international. Using high quality ingredients, Matchy Patchy will be your best bet to rid yourself of that troublesome pimple fast. They use hydrocolloid, tea tree oil and designed it fun for any occasion.

The shapes I loved come in hearts, diamonds, flowers, stars, scallops, x signs, tears, octagon, and more! They also come in different colors, textures, so you can choose what you feel on that particular day. This is something I'd love to have during my teens or those fun events when they show up unannounced. I bet this would be good for those who are experiencing sudden breakouts due to hormonal things that men or women go through.

Film Director Gayle Oblea their Chief Marketing Officer says "This has less competition and it's not a thing yet in the Philippines. You don't see them much in stores and we want to make it aesthetic especially the young folks to try it now. They love glitters, things that look fun, and emphasize what it is and what it solves. We are partnering too with bands, so gig goers can use it too. It only costs Php 149 so even students can afford it. We are planning to get a celebrity and band endorsers soon, to showcase how this encompasses gender or skin types."

It also costs Php 159 for the stars as it costs a bit more to produce, they will also be having a Christmas themed pimple patches too on December 1st, so watch out for that.

Make sure you use clean hands to apply it on your skin, of course, it's fun, it works and lessens your worries. Go get them in their official TikTok Shop, or their official website. This is also FDA approved. They plan to expand to skin care shops and boutiques around the metro, and later on, the world!

 

Here's more from the event!

There are plans to go around the Philippines through concerts and events. They will be giving out samples, so you can test it out. I've personally used several last night and it stuck quite nicely. They also have tested it swimming, and it never got washed out. The patches last for a year so no worries about it expiring. 

Matchy Patchy presents a very good premise, and since it works, I hope it becomes as regular as toothpaste soon.

Getting Rid of Acne: Try SkinTrends!

We all have skin problems during puberty, or our lifetime. Some less, some more seen but overall, we get to that one point when you just don't want to see it anymore especially when you need to go out to study or work. You get to break that normalcy because if you've got acne, you'll be ridiculed, looked upon and worse, treated like a freak coming out of a laboratory. I've met Dr. Herbia Joy Gonzales-Mongcal a couple of months ago and she did an excellent job answering questions about how the simple problem of pimples can be resolved by regular, time tested procedures she has been doing in clinics for a throng of her clientele.

Skintrends was started years ago by Dr. Joy in the city of Sta. Rosa, Laguna. It was called HCG Face and Body Clinic then and was a haven for wanted skin services at an affordable and reasonable cost. With further studies, training, and technology by her put in on the clinic, Dr. Joy got more clients from the southern Metro Manila area. The clamor to have more clinics that would be also closer to other cities became stronger and so they expanded branches to accommodate those who need the same level of service and quality products that would solve the real undeniable problem of acne. Her efforts were evidently bearing fruit because after her old clients saw how successful their treatments were, they had the next generation to also try their clinic later on. The sons, daughters, friends and family all became accustomed to what Skintrends provided these past few years, They heavily relied on word of mouth and since they've opened up a couple of more clinics nearby, they wanted more people to benefit from what they have inside their clinics. 

When I saw the list of their services, I thought it was going to be a little expensive, but no. I didn't even see anything ridiculously priced at all. Then they go on and told us that we could individually treat our readers too.

If you print this out and show it to them in their clinics, you'll get 100 pesos off your services (one voucher per day/transaction only). I think I even saw a 200++ basic facial on the list, now with this, you can get that same procedure at half the cost! Isn't that crazy? I know. Anyway, if you're still having problems with pimples, acnes or just plain want to get something done on your skin, try out SkinTrends in their branches at Sta. Rosa Laguna, Eastwood City, SM Fairview, Ali Mall, Festival Supermall in Alabang, and Pacific Century Tower in Quezon City. She's got strict training done on all her people so you won't be sorry if you avail their services. Aside from that, she know what she's doing and even if I did my research about it, she accommodates questions from people as crazy as me. So think about it, would you not want to treat yourself today? Print the image above and enjoy your time there... it'll be worth it especially if you're still suffering from acne. :)

Flawless: Launches Flaunt, New Website and Social Media Channels

When I hear Flawless, I usually shy away from it because believe it or not I don't go to facial centers and I find it too girly to do so. Men I think for most of the time are low maintenance. Even though it doesn't show that I need one, it's haunting me for the longest time that I even consider that good looking ones like me kinda need help too (hehe). Finding reputable ones like Flawless for my first consultation is nothing but the right choice. The doctor was IN!

She took time explaining the common skin problems and tried to analyze what our skin conditions were too. We were probably like smorgasbord,  but the good thing is they give us the necessary advise on how to actually choose the product that would be the perfect match for our skin. I had so many questions but Doctor Cu gamely answered them for me. I had normal T zone problems just like any guy, but I don't use sunblock. She said I should always make it a habit to do so because unprotected skin would just age fast and get damaged by UV rays. I know it was something I should do but I didn't pay attention to it that much because people have been noticing I look young for my age. But I think she's got a point that if I take care of it, I would have looked better than what I do now. Thanks for that Doc! =)

Their facilities were at par with world standards. You can also opt for the more private rooms if you don't want everybody to see you get overhauled. Price points are way cheaper than normal aesthetic centers but they never compromise quality. That's exactly what they wanted to be, affordable yet you get the best services and products on this side of the world.

If you've got a certain type of skin, they have the right product for you. Whether you are Oily, Acne prone, Dry, etc. they have it on stock in all their stores. Check this out!

They also have some international brands on their shelves!

Both ISKIN and Cosmelan are brands that have been used by stars here and abroad. They've got them all at FLAWLESS and they whispered to me some of the names :) ahh so that's why!

I thought I saw the frontman of the internationally acclaimed group Simply Red but he didn't sing this time. He's the gorgeous looking Business Manager Drew Mendoza who told us about their operations in the Philippines. He also mentioned why Flawless relaunched their website to something more interactive, sleeker and cleaner now.

The menu's easier to navigate, the sub menus are also organized to skin conditions and there's also the online store so you can probably order if you don't have a Flawless branch near you. They ship in more places worldwide so make sure you come visit if you want your skin be a tad better; or if you don't have it yet!

Marketing Manager Ms. Pat Mendoza says Flawless knows that the market needs avenues to approach an establishment like them. They know the importance of social media so they had all of them covered. Saying this is their NEW VOICE! They extended their reach and veer away from the usual old style advertising. Now it's more personal and they find more gain interacting with their customers real time.

To launch their new E-Magazine, they got Enzo Pineda that evening too! Gorgeous and looking dapper in his outfit he took time to say hi to everyone that evening. Girls, Ladies, secure your panties.

Enzo Pineda had several favorite treatments and products with Flawless, that's why he's stayed a very good endorser for the clinic. He's got nothing but good words with them and the people behind it.

And look who dropped by who also covered the event! Equally Flawless Icy Mendoza.

Their office was really posh and nice too. A great place to train aesthetics professionals (which lasts 90 days) the greatest facilities and products, you can't go wrong with Flawless and they've showed that in a grand way. Congratulations to Flawless, Flaunt and to everyone who made this event possible. I really enjoyed having my skin checked, not as normal as other people might say but it was definitely good for me!
