Many don’t let this opportunity pass and go hard on skincare, rigorously trying new routines and products to come out of quarantine with a better skin. Apart from applying multiple layers of creams and serums, there are some treatments that may enhance the skin almost like a visit to aesthetician would: and Dr.Numb is sharing their best tips on how to perform these treatments properly.

The Ugly Truth About Skin Whitening and its Embedded Racism
When I was just 10 years old, I used the skin whitening facial cream ‘Fair and Lovely’ with the hope that I would finally be beautiful when my skin was lighter. By high school, I was convinced that boys would never like me because I was too dark. Whilst most girls were busy worrying about being too fat, I was worried about the colour of skin I was born in. What a waste of time.

Luvanya Beauty
Growing up, and even past my teenage years, I never had to worry about my skin. It was clear, soft, supple, and although I had a baby face until I was 19, I was relatively happy with the way my skin looked and felt. I thought that, since I hadn't dealt with skin issues or acne while going through puberty or my teenage years, I was in the clear. Oh, no. In my early 20s, my skin started to freak out. I started seeing small bumps and acne and random redness on my skin; I had never dealt with any of that. I was just used to throwing on a light moisturizer every day as my skincare "routine." I had to start looking for something to remedy my skin. For years, I tried different brands and products, but they only seemed to worsen the situation. Back in January, I went to an event for artists/actors/singers, and left with a gift bag. In it was the Luvanya Exfoliating Elixir. Changed my life! Let me tell you all the reasons why Luvanya is incredible, and what sets it apart from other products.

An honest skin care advice
Living with a bad skin isn’t easy. Everytime you look in the mirror, the first thing you notice are those acne and marks that are making your life difficult. You always try to cover them up with makeup, but sometimes it doesn't work and you end up looking worse than before.

Natural Skin Care
I changed to natural products for my skincare due to toxins hidden in beauty products. The ingredients in most cheap skincare are linked to issues such as hormonal problems, irregular periods, infertility, allergies, and even cancer.

Skin Bleaching - I hate it, but my skin loves it
I was born and raised in the Philippines, a country in the Pacific where people have beautiful brown skin. However, the Philippines is also, arguably, the skin bleaching capital of the world. The celebrities are mostly half-white (or East Asian because they still have lighter skin than the locals). The commercials are bombarded with lightening products that tell little girls that they're not beautiful unless they have light skin. Amongst friends, they'd tease you if you were the darkest in the group. Amongst men, they wouldn't swing their heads towards women who had curves - they'd swing their heads towards women who were as pale as paper.
