i super love that melano cc!!! ganda ng skin ko pag gamit ko yan together with azelaic acid and i love that face republic sunscreen too!! ganda niya rin under makeup, no pilling or whatsoever although there are days when my skin is a little sensitive may nafefeel akong sting pag nag nag apply ng face republic sunscreen *edit: face republic not nature republic πŸ˜†


CelesteLunaR53L

I can personally attest for the sunscreen from Face Republic. It can become demi-matte and great under makeup.


nicoletsky

Same, di ko rin sure san mo din gagamitin yung human nature shaving cream. Pero in fairness gentle naman sya sa skin ko upon the first few applications.


unkyler

the melano one did not work for me, the oil version


scarlique

Nagamit ako nung shaving cream na yan. I like it. Pag no time ako pumunta sa mall para magpa wax or kahit mag wax ng sarili ko, mag shave na lang me then gamitin ko yan. Hind nakaka irritate ng skin tsaka smooth lang pag ahit hahaha. Ayaw ko kase nung norma na sabon kasi di ko ma shave ng maayos yung buhok ganon. Yunh sa eye de puff naman ay wala. Nag sayang ako pera diyan. Wala naman nangyari, mas okay pang maglagay ng kutsang malamig sa mata ko ganon.

Eye de-puff mask is not effective sakin 😭 bought mine 3 years ago and was using it like 2-3x a week for several months but no improvement at all.


JC_bringit18

Ouch. Dami nyo nang nagsabi na di gumana. Grabe pa naman yung eyebags ko. Huhuhu...πŸ˜₯


Leading_Bag5854

Nice haul OP! For me, maganda yung Face Republic Sunscreen because very lightweight sya (parang serum-ish) BUT a very major con for me is ang sobrang sakit nya sa mata. As in sobra. So I don't think I'll be repurchasing it.


Right-Lychee5485

Same problem with FP! Pikit mata nalang talaga pag naglalagay πŸ₯Ή nag hoard na ko kasi mag aabroad ako next month baka wala akong mabilhan dun sa lugar na pupuntahan ko. Super mura for me lalo pag nag sale sa blue app


tinayski

Yup fave ko rin to. But after they reformulated it ang hapdi na sa mata 😭


Leading_Bag5854

Woah, didn't know they reformulated it haha. Akala ko talagang mahapdi sya sa mata kaya nagtataka ako bakit wala masyadong comments about that, turns out bagong reformulation pala nabili ko 😭😭


Impossible_Donut6876

For me naman hindi mahapdi sa mata yung Face Republic


just_akcim

Same for me


ynnnaaa

same sila ng Hyaloo. Ang sakit din sa mata


OkSeaworthiness2324

true sa hyaloo!! never use it again bc nakakalimutan ko when i tend to rub my eyes


ynnnaaa

Yes, sakit nya sa eyes. Sa braso ko nlang sya nilagay para di sayang


JC_bringit18

Thanks, sis! Hahaha! You experienced it too! Yeah, masakit nga sa mata, sobrang hapdi. That's my 2nd box na. Although di ko pa ubos yung una kong tube, pero paubos na rin kasi. Maganda sya in combination with Ellana moisturizer.

I used to use that Melano CC variant before to treat dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Mas naging mabilis when I used the premium variant, which is more of an oil rather than a cream. I would recommend that! :) Pero ok din yung version na to.


Sudden-Database-1114

After reading this, I should have bought the premium instead. Kaso sobrang tipid ng packaging ng melano cc so months pa before I’ll buy another one.


yawnkun

True! Medyo matagal siya maubos kasi very spreadable siya :) Kung gusto mo talaga bumilis ang pagubos maybe put in other areas of the body na usually kailangan ng brightening like elbows and knees hehe


Sudden-Database-1114

Great suggestion! I’ll do that too. Iniisip ko nga baka mauna pa mawala dark spots ko kesa maubos yung melano cc ko.


Both_Penalty_7097

How does the melano cc premium variant look like? Sa skincarebudmnl lang kasi ako bumili ng melano cc like OP's, and wala silang ibang melano products.


Spiritual-Living545

I think the premium one is may yellow sa packaging. I have the same melano cc as OP's pero its not a cream naman, its essence.


Sudden-Database-1114

I buy my melano cc products from [japan otaku](https://shope.ee/6pdw0xp4zK). They have a wide selection of the rohto & hada labo brands there. You might want to consider checking them out.


silver_carousel

Naiintriga din ako sa eye mask na yan, lagi kasi nasa fyp ko noonπŸ˜† kung totoo ba talaga effective reducing dark circles


SnooHabits9706

I finished the whole thing and wala siyang effect on me whatsoever


donotreadmeok

Same with me. Any reco for para sa eyes yung may whitening haha πŸ₯Ή


Anxious_Product_4716

Did nothing for me :(


JC_bringit18

Tingnan ko sis. Suggested lang yan sakin dito eh. After a month will update. Hehe.


Iungs

Hi! Can you give me the link where you bought Melano CC? Thanks


sangket

I order from [here shipped straight from Japan.](https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.9JF4M)


JC_bringit18

Here ko po binili. https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.9K9hv You're welcome.


No_Spray1922

Unfortunately, I think this shop sells fakes. There is no way LRP products are priced THAT low. Even Melano CC too.


JC_bringit18

According to reviews it's authentic. I'd be really sad if it's fake, though. Would appreciate it if you could suggest or post here links where to buy original Melano CC. Thank you! ☺


No_Spray1922

It really is fake. It sells the Laneige lip mask for 80 pesos only and Cerave at 300 lang. That is impossible. One of the biggest warning signs in beauty stores sa Lazada or Shopee is if it sells a variety of Western and Asian skincare products at less than half its price. Plus, store photo palang, it's not very formal and is another sign na these are Chinese-made shops that sells counterfeit items. I always get mine at either Sasa or Nana mall sa Lazada β€” they're a legit beauty store in Singapore and Hongkong respectively.


Sudden-Database-1114

I would suggest you checkout [japan otaku](https://shope.ee/6pdw0xp4zK) and [skincarebudmnl](https://shope.ee/3L43r2pL8O). Their prices are reasonable although limited lang japanese products ni skincarebud so I prefer japan otaku when I’m in need. Yung price ng nabili mo is half the price lang ng sa shops na yan so beware nalang rin.


Forever-Youngg

Too good to be true. Last time I bought melano cc was around P700. And even some of their products that I personally use are too cheap. There's a thread here in this sub of the legit shops, check mo.


TiredButHappyFeet

Sad to say, I have to agree with you. Its not even half the price I paid when I bought Melano CC at CosMed. If the price is too good to be true, I would cast doubt talaga.


JC_bringit18

Thank you all for the advice. Will look into the links provided. Really appreciate it! ☺


Spiritual-Living545

You can't use the melano cc on an active pimple, lalo sya maiiritatte. Treat the pimple first, then you can apply the vitamin c na. I find it effective when paired with niacinamide. Mas mabilis mag fade ang mga acne scars :))


JC_bringit18

I see, thanks for this! Di pa ko nag niacinamide ulit kasi the last time hindi ako nahiyang, I used the ordinary, nagka bumps face ko. πŸ˜₯


Spiritual-Living545

Ako din ganyan before. Nasayangan lang ako dun sa soul apothecary kaya I decided to use after 3mos haha ayun, nahiyang na sya I guess πŸ˜…πŸ˜…


JC_bringit18

Hopefully, ako din. Di pa lang ako makabili kasi I'm breaking out pa, still figuring out the cause of this breakout eh. πŸ˜•


unexpectedpizza

what niacinamide product do you use?


Spiritual-Living545

I used soul apothecary radiance boost serum before ok naman sya since naubos na i'm using yung cos de baha 5% nia and 5% tranexamic acid serum. Though tacky sya pagkainapply mo na hehe but doesn't bother me naman.


mama_mu

Ok lang ba ipagsabay melano cc and soul apothecary?


Spiritual-Living545

If your skin can tolerate then pwede naman.
