Issa Pressman and Leila Alcasid both love Kiehl’s.
Issa swears by its Micro-Dose Anti-Aging Retinol Serum with Niacinamide, Ceramides and Peptides, which is sold at PHP4,500 on Lazada.
This anti-aging serum promises these results, too: (1) Wrinkles are visibly reduced (2) skin is firmer (3) pores appear minimized (4) skin tone and texture are more even.
The Filipina-British beauty told PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) in an exclusive interview, “I love Kiehl's. I use their retinol.
“I also love chemical exfoliants,” referring to products that have a topical acid, which dissolves dead skin cells.
Kiehl’s has a variety of exfoliants depending on your skin type.
Issa continued, “I think they really are what helps with the pores.”
Leila, for her part, is a big fan of the Midnight Recovery Serum, which “visibly corrects 30 days of poor sleep" overnight.
Even Hollywood celebrities love this oil, which costs PHP3,200 on Lazada.
The daughter of Ogie Alcasid and Michelle van Eimeren said, “It really works for me. I can really depend on it, and their facial wash, too.”
Both ladies did not forget to mention the importance of sunblock.
Issa affirmed, “It really helps to keep your skin turn even.”
Lelia added, “Also good for the skin—eating well, hydration, like skin juices and stuff like that.”
MUST-HAVE MAKE-UP ITEMS
During sales of online shopping sites, the two would usually buy their beauty staples: “lip products and blush” for Leila and “highlighters” for Issa.
How often do they add to cart?
Issa replied, “Only when I reward myself. I definitely don't splurge too much para it becomes gifts for yourself, you know?
“I don't make it like a regular habit to just like spend and consume and consume.
“Of course, make it like nice gifts for you so that it's rewarding and not really spoiling yourself.”
Leila’s answer was: “When I run out of something, I'll just buy that, and then if I find something new.
“But it's usually like one by one, I'll get something.
“I really think like thoughtful consuming is very important.
“There's been times where I've had so much stuff and a lot of it doesn't even get used.
“So definitely like being thoughtful about what you buy.”
