I am currently using the whole product range of iwhite from Korea, effective sya for removing blackheads and whiteheads, may one month na rin akong gumagamit, kaya lang dumadami ang pimples ko, sabi ni husband, baka raw dry ang skin ko, so we bought the moisturizer, ngayon I happen to check for the site ng iwhite, pero wala akong nakita, not sure talaga kung made in Korea nga siya. Baka naman iba ang name?
So eto, I will post the news from the online newspaper na nagtry na ng iwhite.
SKIN WHITENERS
BY DAHLI ASPILLERA
I am surrounded by dozens of relatives and friends, pre- and post-teens. Unlike of those generations past, this present generation seems to be getting more and more obsessed with skin whitening lotions. Is it because of the preponderance of deceitful marketing schemes of commercial products that promise but don’t deliver what they promise?
In the olden days, there were complimentary terms like, kayumangging-kaligatan, translates to the very desirable "olive" complexion. This was preferred to the white, Caucasian skin. This is a darker shade of the mediterranean skin. Most flattering when applied to the Filipina complexion.
UNTV had a dermatologist on. The female moderators of "What’s up Doc" wanted so much to learn how to maintain white, fair skin despite the tropical sun during sunny days. The major concern of these female broadcast journalists should have been more on skin cancer or ultraviolet rays on the retina. But having white skin was the expressed main concern.
These women reminded me of a young niece who asked if she should bleach her skin whiter like all of her friends are doing. My reply to my niece, and my message to the white skin-obsessed females at "What’s up, Doc":
If you’re born with beautiful features; your eyes sparkle from inner happiness and goodness, you can be shades more brown, and you would still be good-looking and desirable. We all have seen some really homely white-skinned Caucasian women, and their white skin did not help their appearance.
I lived in the Caribbean in South America. It was there where I saw some of the most beautiful women with perfect world-class facial features, and they were all had dark mahogany-skin. Some of them shaved their heads to show more of their profiles, faces, good skin. Bald and oh so beautiful!
I asked my niece if she thought I would look better "if my skin were two shades whiter. Do you think I’d be uglier if my skin were a few shades darker?" She answered no to both questions. I think I made her realized that lighter or darker skin really has nothing to do with looking good.
That ended the need to bleach, to dangerously whiten the Filipino skin which these TV female personalities seem to be endorsing–the whiter the better.
Recently, I counted more than a dozen whitening products in the drugstore shelves. I wanted to put one to test to make a case. I bought (P140.00) a tube of the product "iWhite Korea."
On the tube reads: Skin Whitening Vita Aqua Moisturing Cream with Mulberry and Panax Ginseng Root Extracts Plus Green Tea Leaf Extract. Light Cool Soothing Oil-free. Bio Nanotechnology. 1.76 oz (50 g.)"
On its skin-whitening capability, it claims, "The perfect combination of Mulberry Extract to shiten shin discoloration, Green Tea Extract and Vitamins ACE to protect skin against cellular damage and premature aging. Aloe Vera and Vitamin B5 for elasticity and firmness of the
skin plus emollients makes iWhite Aqua Moisturizing Cream the ideal choice for all skin types."
I applied the cream on the left side of my neck, shoulder and arm morning and night after showers. I’ve been doing this for about 50 days now. It is evident that there is no chance at all in color, shade, or texture between my left neck and shoulder and my right side neck and shoulder.
If iWhite has been ineffective after 50 days of twice-daily application, then there must be nothing to it. If iWhite is so ineffective, why is it doing a booming business enriching the Bio-cosys Corporation of San Juan? Doesn’t the BFAR or Dept. of Health worry about ineffective drugs allowed to stay in the market?

What More Can I Ask For?
Magaling! Magaling! Ang saya-saya! Yesterday was our 2 years and 4 months wedding anniversary. Dapat kahapon kami magcecelebrate, kaya lang traffic at pagod na si Irwin. So we decided na today na lang. After lunch after we dropped Angie, Maris's sister-in-law sa may Libertad going to Quezon we went to Market market kasi sale. So pagdating namin dun, we saw this promo ng Coffeemate na for every 3 purchase of 180grams of CoffeeMate you will get a free caricature. Eh ang tagal ko nang gusto na magkaroon nun, it was expensive pa. So we tried it out, buti na lang game na game ang asawa ko. I asked him for a copy of our picture nasa wallet niya.
Bumili kami ng CoffeeMate.
Tapos binigay namin yung picture,
tapos nagikot muna kami.
Tapos pag uwi namin.
Ayun may caricature na kami!
Ang saya saya diba?

And then when we went sa Department Store, I saw this iWhite na whitening pack,
nakita ko na siya sa Hypermart dati eh, di lang ako nakabili so I bought a pack, yun pala may promo na naman, free facial, of course, I tried it too, Exciting!
After being a "prisoner" sa bahay, eto ako, parang si Michael ng "Prison Break",
gala ng gala, ang saya talaga.
So nagpafacial ako using their product, ayun effective siya in removing blackheads and whiteheads, dinaig pa ang derma ko. Hindi pa ganun kahapdi or kasakit compare mo
dun sa mga facial sa Let's Face It kasi they do pricking.
Ang saya! Goodbye blackheads na ako...
O after naman nun, punta kami sa Van Hausen, Isang dosesang polo shirt ang binili ni Irwin, as in pakyaw, lahat ng magkasya sa kanya, sige bile, Imagine, yung dating 1,200 na polo na binibili niya, nasa 400 na lang, bagsak presyo, as in SALE talaga!
Yun lang kasi ang nagkakasyang polo sa kanya, yug IZOD kasya rin kaya lang mas expensive siya. Mahal para sa mahal ko.
Okey ang pinakamasarap na part siyempre, kainan, diretso kami sa Heaven and Eggs to eat. We ordered porkchop, may free pancake na, so we ordered rice with the porkchop kasi dati, we ordered the extra rice and we chose the pancake na kasama ng chops.
WE didn't order drinks kasi, mahal na ang bottomless nila, nasa 85 pesoses na.
Dati we would share ni Irwin sa chops, then I will order the butter pancake, ngayon tig-isa na kami! Inuwi ko pa ang buto para kay Cassie.

So after nun, umuwi na kami. umuulan na eh, bawal pa akong mabasa ng ulan, maloloka raw ako sabi ni Mama.
So, like what my title says, "WHAT MORE CAN I ASK FOR"?
Siguro anak na lang.
Bumili kami ng CoffeeMate.
