Nature Beauty Collagen and Glutathione Perfect Magic Peeling Cream and Shady Seller Practices

Here's another product I got from a roving seller before lockdown.

I had been meaning to get my hands on a peeling gel/cream after trying out Sophie Martin Paris Tomato Natural Antioxidant Peeling. Since Nature Beauty Collagen and Glutathione Perfect Magic Peeling Cream works the same way (The seller applied some of the product on my arm and rubbed it in. Sure enough, clumps of debris began forming. Mind you, as I've explained extensively in the Sophie Martin Tomato Peeling post last January, peeling gels/cream that produce clumps are physical, like scrubs, not chemical exfoliants in spite of the torrent of extracts they spew at you. They're not magic. ), I got easily duped into buying a tube.

Milea All Organics Tea Tree and Aloe Vera Antibacterial Soap

Before lockdown, I purchased a lot of stuff from roving sellers. Not only was it convenient, but some sellers tend to offer free taste and freebies and unlike buying online, I get to see, smell and feel the actual product. In the new normal, I am not so sure roving sellers will be permitted into work premises as easily as before. Heck, I'm not so sure there will be roving sellers of beauty products anymore. But then, maybe a coworker who's into buy and sell will branch into beauty stuff.

From ECQ to MECQ to GCQ to MGCQ

It felt like Hunger Games, complete with a siren at 12 noon then 8PM during enhanced community quarantine or ECQ and modified enhanced community quarantine or MECQ. Then there's the televised announcement of the fallen aka the day's total number of cases usually at 4PM. Donation drives were launched for PPEs and food for frontliners, and mass testing.

During ECQ and MECQ when only essential work was allowed, LGUs used funds to provide households with relief goods, usually rice, noodles and sardines. Who knew lumpiang sardinas tastes good.
