How to fight STRESS and Sulfur + Renow-D Update

I. How to fight STRESS

I totally enjoyed playing computer "mini" games, however, for me it's really stressful. Candy crush, Poker and Tetris we're my favorite, and was so attached.

Not that I wasn't to influence anyone to stop playing. My case may be different. I can't stop playing once I started. Whenever I lose energy or chips or life, immediately I use my moms account so I can continue. To the extend that my eyes must hurt. 


Recently I just realized that this is so wrong. If I can't control, maybe I need to take it off of my pastime list. I don't think it's healthy.

So I created a "Physical, Emotional and Social Activities" that I could choose from whenever I feel bored or companion-less.

Obviously it is divided into 2 parts. First one is WITHOUT any expense:

1. Must I drink my favorite tea or any juice.
2. Do exercises. (It's way better to get your body into motion.)
3. Give your pet a little walk around. Stroll or jog.
4. Clean your room. Change the bedding and curtains.
5. Read a book, novel, manga.
6. Bake or cook something.
7. There's actually so many things, I just didn't know as of yet. You can take a nap, deep breathe and face yoga. That's totally free, you can check samples in YouTube.  

Here's WITH expense:

8. Date. With a friend, mom, boyfriend. Or even with yourself. 
9. Visit a spa, (although you can do this at home, but I must admit, it still feels better than serving yourself, no you can't massage/scrub your back.) 
10. Gym. Must I enroll or not?
11. Pay your bills. xD It feels great after paying your debts. Reality.

Well, this is actually the same with what I wrote.

Tomorrow, I'm planning to visit my youngest cousin and will be baking them something nice. 

" That's my Mango-Chocolate Tiramisu. Cute eh? :) "

II. Sulfur + Renow-D Update:

As you can see I used half of them. It was the 4th week I guess?

They're both excellent and effective. I'm just glad that although I've had sensitive skin because of the Fraxel Laser and Diamond peeling and all other derma stuffs, it didn't irritate me. One more thing, I like how they compliment each other.


Renow-D has lighten the dark spots from the lower right side of my cheek. Spots that I had with fraxel laser. I'd say its more clearer than before.

Sulfur instantly removes pimples. Don't expect it overnight, it's not magic. 

But i'm happy and contented.

Really Cool! :)

BELO NUTRACEUTICALS: GLUTATHIONE + COLLAGEN

"Glutathione is an antioxidant made from glycine, glutamic acid and cysteine. While Glutathione is prepared like any cosmetic or vitamin product – in a safe, sterile laboratory setting – it is made of all-natural amino acids that occur in nature and are beneficial to our bodies. It can be found in many healthy foods that people eat on a regular basis, some of which are actually considered among the healthiest foods in the world.
Glutathione can be extremely beneficial for people that would just prefer a slightly lighter complexion. In fact, many women that have flawless skin use Glutathione on a regular basis to help maintain their excellent complexion. It can also give people with minor skin imperfections an overall better look by reducing the appearance of red spots and any rough patches that may exist. Many women use Glutathione exclusively to get smoother, more touchable skin."
Just got home from a dinner date with mom and thought about buying a supplement aside from Vitamin E. 
 I asked the pharmacist in Watsons which glutathione works best and she rapidly advised Belo, for only 480 php you get 10 capsules and she told me that I can use my SMAC's points to purchase 2 more and so I ended up buying 3 boxes, for maybe a trial.
I am a huge fan of Glut IV (Saluta) and saw immediate results for like 2-3 weeks. Did I said great results? 
Well, it's just that I also love to swim.. and sunlight. <3
However, its not just about getting whiter skin. I love my skin color. But it'll be nicer to get a slight lighter and fairer complexion. Also, you'd get less population for those acnes and blackheads. (I was talking about IV in here.)
So let's see what oral glut can do this time. If it shows better results, imma take IV again.
** A single capsule contains the following supplemental facts: (It says in the box that you take 2 capsules, for me i'll take one caps after shift, that would be 6am then another at 6pm, that's after I woke up. With or without meal, I guess doesn't matter.)
  • Glutatione  250mg
  • Alpha Lopic Acid 50mg
  • L-Hydroxyproline 50mg
  • Sodium Ascorbate 25mg
  • Coenzyme Q10 3mg
  • Marine Collagen
  • Other ingridients are Magnesium Stearate
Belo Nutraceuticals: Glutathione and Collagen - is now available in Watsons, Mercury Drug and leading drugstore chains nationwide. They are priced at:

480 php - 10 capsule
1,440 php - 30 capsules
2,700 php - 60 capsules

The Most Effective Squat Challenge: 100 Rep Fitness Blender Squat Challenge



Why squat exercise? Well,  it is a superb total body workout but focuses on the lower part area. Actually for me  it feels like its an exercise that will benefit your entire body. They effectively work most of the major muscle groups of the butt, hips and thighs. Also you can hit the abs area if you'll do a twist in your squat challenge. 



However, since I follow this fitness blender exercise I do the abs workout separately. Squats are also a versatile exercise. They can be done in almost any location, with or without the use of weights or equipment or after I jog along BF, ends up in a park, nowhere you can lay there so  an addition of squat could burn all your fats.  Reason why I love this exercise:


1. It Tones the Legs

Squat exercises thoroughly engage the quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles, which helps to tone and strengthen the legs. Slowing the motion down makes the workout that much more intense.

2. Lifts the Butt

Doing squats gives the glutes a powerful workout, helping to tighten and lift the butt. To increase this effect, give your glutes an extra squeeze when returning to a standing position.

3. Strengthens the Core

Squats engage the core muscles of the body. Abdominal and back muscles are needed to keep balance during the movement. The result is a tighter, flatter abdomen and a stronger lower back.  Make a conscious effort to hold in your abdominal muscles while squatting down to increase this effect.

4. Increases Flexibility

Doing squats increases joint flexibility. The ankles, knees, hips and lower back are all utilized in the squatting motion. Be sure to maintain proper form to avoid injury. If you feel any pain in these areas, stop doing the exercises until the pain is gone.

5. Total Body Workout

Adding weights to your squat routine engages the muscles of the upper body, essentially giving you a full body workout in one exercise. You can accomplish this with the use of a barbell, dumbbells or a weighted vest. When adding weights to your routine, start with lighter ones and build as your strength increases.
Here's the  10 squat challenge  that I do  every-other  day. 




Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGvzVjuY8SY

1. Basic Squat - 10 Repetitions
2. Plie Squat - 10 Repetitions
3. Squat + Leg Raises - 10 Repetitions
4. Roundabout Squat - 10 Repetitions
5. Squat + Leg Lift - 10 Repetitions
6. Triple Dip Squat - 10 Repetitions
7. Sumo Squat + High Kicks -10 Repetitions
8. Side Squat - 10 Repetitions
9. Double Dip Ski Squats - 10 Repetitions
10. Jump Squat - 10 Repetitions
 (This Jump Squat* would be the hardest part for me. It feels like I don't have any energy left to lift up my body and jump. lol)

July Comeback

It was a lazy start for the month of July and I guess I've finished all of my stuffs (unfortunately blogging wasn't on the list) That includes paper works, getting back and forth the busy street of Makati, working at night and 3-days Thanksgiving. 

So I have no updates with my regimen. *giggles*


As always, ya'll know that Sulfur(alone) can delete acne, pimples but not the marks. So after all these weeks I've noticed how Renow-D actually works. It minimizes dark spots, and eventually clears them up. I just know that I was out most of the time and so, I was exposed with pollution and dirt. 

Wet wipes are really handy and I'm missing hydro-cortisone too. That must be the answer of having a smooth skin/texture all along.

I didn't get to say my daily routine as I promised experimenting last 3 weeks. Maybe? But here's my Mid-June to July's facial schedule:

I always get a lighter morning by washing your face with a mild soap / facial scrub. 
1. I apply Renow-D on the entirety, then Sulfur on the infected area.

(I just bought a pack of BioFit Tea recently. Bola(Grandma) started drinking this and I'd say, is effective. It didn't slimmed her down but like me, changed her to a better bowel circulation. That's really important.)

2. Same thing in the evening. But I'll change this part since I felt a little roughness especially on the T-zone area. This time, I will only apply Renow-D and Sulfur where the skin needs them. And on the part that felt rough will be Hydro-Cortisone. It cost a little as well, but you can buy them at any derma clinic. Then run around 300-500php. But the whole package would be so cheap and affordable because Renow-D is just 40php + Sulfur that is only 20php. Compared to any acne solution that cost too much  but helped me a little.

It was worth the risk to regain the glow and fairness of my old skin when I was younger. Drink tons of water to maximize the elasticity of the skin (that part was really easy). No matter how expensive or good a skin product is, I believe, it'll never work in a right way.


Next.. 8-MIN SQUAT WORKOUT!

Renow-D Facial Cream Review

Long nails gone! Can't afford to see chipped nails after I got back home from Cagbalete though.

(Wee~ so excited!)

Well anyway, what do I know about this product?

Nothing really, cause I was looking for Sulfur San-Ing Cream on my way back home and so I headed Mercury Drugstore in Bf Resort. It was so unusual  not to see any Sulfur available. 

Why Mercury? why..

So I  bought this Renow-D Facial Cream Formula One. 

The reason behind is that I was too lazy to visit RVB Derma Clinic and buy the Hydro-cortisone Cream I  used to apply.

Wasn't sure what it is. Looks just the same for me. So I purchased it for 40Php or $1.

I planned to use this on marks and acne spots but I ended up  putting it on the entirety of my face. Tsk tsk. Fascinating.

Alright. So it smells great compared to Sulfur. Effects? Nah.. I'll update you after a week as it promised me to  get clearer skin.

I read some blog about it and for them it  works really fine. For me, they were like advertising the product because they say they were too ugly before and now they look stunningly perfect. Something like that.

Well, I'm hoping that it won't ruin my sensitive skin. For now.

Maybe I'll avoid press powder, concealer and other stuffs. So I can immediately see the outcome.

That's it for now. Sorry it's not a review at all. So misleading.

See you!


DAY 1:

I don't follow the direction below, I just use it like anytime I wanted. That's cool. Same with sulfur. So far, product on day 1 seems like a moisturizer for me. No changes yet.

But I won't update this post instead, I'll create a new one. Maybe tomorrow for Day 2.

Natural Underarm Whitener: Milcu Deodorant Powder


Reason why I switched from a Roll-On Deodorant to Milcu is when we read about a documentation about one of the main cause of having breast cancer is the use of Anti-Perspirant. 

You can check Google or click the link below for that info, although this article wasn't verified or still is undetermined. 

Still we need to be sure of what we apply to our delicate skin as it easily absorbs anything even chemicals.

Others says that this urban legend ain't true. It may be or maybe not. Though for your safety there's nothing more to lose. Right?

I found out Milcu maybe like months ago. And in a snap, me, my sister and mom shifted to this product for so many reason.

1. It has no artificial smell. All natural.
2. Dry. So that underarms doesn't feel sticky.
3. Won't let you smell for the whole day. 
4. Cheap and very affordable.
5. It whitens skin because it's made of Potassium Alum or  known as Tawas.
6. No Alcohol that can burn your skin.
7. No Parabens - This is the chemical preservatives that is said to be the cause of breast cancer.
8. And no active chemicals that leaves you clothes yellowish. Or simply stain.

I so love this product cause its very handy. I always make sure to bring a small plastic container of this deodorant powder incase we go swimming or anything else. 

I have no allergic reaction to this and since this is a Natural Product I can see changes that it whitens skin very effectively. 

My sister uses Tawas Stone itself all the time and I find it uncomfortable or messy because the tiny bits of it falling on the floor that I can step on it is not cool. That was why even if it has good benefits on your skin I won't use Tawas.

Aside from that it also prevents bad odor or smelly feet. Perfect for those who always use shoes, you can now prevent bacteria build-up that was coming from sweat and moist that creates unpleasant smell.

But good thing that I was able to know this stuff, very amazing and the price also. Cheap and effective. 
You can check the nearest drugstore and see how it works.

Til then! <3

Laxative Biofit Tea Review

* Didn't realize it's my last day today.  Wee~ Rest Day coming right up! *

Topic for today is: BIOFIT TEA. 

I don't drink this everyday. I mean I consume 1 tea bag for a week unlike green/black tea.

Others might bought this because of wanting to get a slimmer shape or sexy figure, but I don't have an a clue about weight loss if it's effective because I use this as a cleanser for I've had problems with constipation. Besides unlike any other laxatives, I don't have to visit toilet many times. 

But  honestly, this thing helps reduce excess body weight by simply flushing out the toxins and unwanted body fats. So you'll get that thin-looking and clean tummy.


Taste and smell is okay. Just like a regular tea. So i'd give it a 5.

My personal choice is an addition of honey instead of sugar and a pinch of lemon. Yum!

I only drink this before I go to sleep. 
(So basically that's afternoon after I do a little exercise.) 

Expect to take a trip on the toilet the other day. 

It is effective on my diet that I thank this product so much that it helped ease up digestion and constipation too. 

I don't starve myself to death either. In fact I eat whatever and whenever I want. It's just that I choose what's healthy for me. And a little sweet-treat is okay sometimes. 

Someone special told me that it's nice to give your self a treat at the end of the week for all the hard work you've done. I love this person so much for all the inspiration including how I work my diet and fill myself with good thoughts.

Anyway

I've read that it is not good to take in too much laxatives or diet pills for this can be a source of cancer. So you make sure that you're only taking Bio-fit every other day or twice a week. An alternate to your daily beverage such as green tea, for me.

So I won't suggest you take this regularly, twice a week is fine, besides we all don't have the very same body type but better be careful on what we in-take.

In total I'd give Biofit a score of perfect 5. Yey! ^^

Anyway, If you'd really want to achieve that killer-figure, make it a healthy diet. No cold-water, no junk foods. Don't stress yourself too much. Be happy. Drink lots of water, exercise more. Be with your friends. Do your favorite thing. Read. Watch TV. Sing a song. Take a good rest. Visit a spa. Relax more. 

And don't forget to always thank God for all the blessings that you have. 

Hope this helps.

DIY Tissue Mask for Hydration and Redness.

Tissue Monster
Obviously this is a homemade treat to hydrate your skin. But I suggest you do this before you sleep for a perfect result. 

For no certain reason, I pricked some acne and boom. Ugly face. 

That's what happen when there's nothing else to do. (Besides cleaning) 

I washed my face immediately to remove the dirt from my hands but was not satisfied with still redness. 

I thought I won't be able to use my toner because it might add damage to my sensitive skin if I'd scratch the cotton on my face plus the hot temperature. Ugh! I wouldn't really know what to do without the face mask, as we all know it's not really affordable. (1 sheet and it cost 60.00) ?! 

Now, Since my creativity is on not the leash I decided  to put the tissue on my face with the toner.

You'll only need:

Toner, which is specifically made for Acne. If you have alcohol-free toner that'd be much better. (I use Celeteque Hydration Toner - Alcohol-free with Witch Hazel Extract and Celeteque Acne Toner - For any skin types)

Hydrant Face Spray
Moisturizer Cream / Water base - Doesn't matter

So here's how:

1. Wash you face clean and dry. Estimate how tissue will fit onto your face.
2. Close your eyes to hydrate your skin using your face spray. (Spray all over)
3. Pour enough toner on the tissue and be ready to apply it to your face carefully. Be very careful not to put it in your eye area. Toner has alcohol content so it may hurt your nose.
4. If there's a spot where tissue is dry, use your face spray to lock in moisture, covering the entirety of your face. (Except eyes and nose area.)

5. Do your thing, like you have a regular mask on. You can read, sleep or sing? But for me sleeping has perfect results while skin regenerates. 

The moment you wake up, peel the tissue off and see how moisturized it is. You'll see how redness is all gone and so, you can apply your favorite face cream. 

Drink more water. You're face may be hydrated but don't forget to wash away toxins from your body as drinking 8 glasses of water helps repair your skin tissue and keep you look younger and radiant. 

Good luck! <3

Love lots.

Day by Day Spa Massage Pacita, Laguna

It's not our Day-Off but who says you can't relax and fight stress at work and home?

That was why I decided to visit Jessy right after my shift to eat out and treat ourselves a little massage. But why and how did I get there? Then if you're a spa-maniac, you should know how huge the difference it is just by comparing b/w city and provincial rates.

Now, to make the whole preview shorter, we ended up at Day by Day Spa. It was not our first time in that place and I'd say it is one of the cheapest. For P500.00 you'd have a nice Body Scrub,  Shower, 1 Hour Reflex Body Massage and Hot Stone, Compress or Ventosa. FOR TWO PERSON!

I know..I know.. Nice isn't it?

Promo Rates: (Pesos)
100.00 - 1 Hour Regular Massage for VIP Member
150.00 - 1 Hour Regular Massage for Walk-ins / Non-Member
250.00 - Limited for (2) Person each (with many combination to choose from.)
550.00 - Limited for (2) Person each: Unlimited Signature Massage, Body Scrub with Facial, Manicure, Pedicure, Foot and Body Reflexes, Parafin and etc.

- Available at Pacita Branch (4th or 5th Street) Laguna.

They also have other combinations that you'll like, and this time I wanted to get all of my dirt away. Just like how it went before. Toxins were washed from the deepest end of your pores and to all of the edges.

30 mins of scrubbing is all that it takes. <3


But guess this time its different though. It's just that we've been handled  by new masseurs.

So I'd honestly give them a score of 1/5 for the body scrub. They didn't gave a us a nice scrub. Seems like they just applied the sea salt and that was it. (Unlike before) And for the Body Massage that's gonna be 4/5. Did they know what's the difference of moderate pressure from hard?

But you'll get used to it and  in the end it made me fell asleep. T'was a really great Shiatsu-Stretch..

I know it won't be my last with them,  but I'll sure tell them first that body scrub is just as important.

So let's check out other Spa next time and I'll be giving you tips and rates for your convenience. Ciao!

With much love.

Black Tea.. for a change?

I am an all-time Green Tea lover!

We all know that a regular Green Tea consumption may lower your blood pressure and cholesterol, which can reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke and cancers such as rectal, colon, skin and etc. And on top of that, it supports a healthy immune system and has tons of powerful antioxidant properties. 


What more can you ask for a benefit in one drinking.

But then as I ran out of Green Tea, since me and my boyfriend bought random stuffs I added tea on the list. But for the cause of budget we purchased Bigelow English Breakfast Black Tea for just 68.00 for 12 Tea Bags. 

So are there any difference?

You know there are many kinds of tea available. Black, Green, Oolong, White, Red, Yellow, Laxative and Herbal Teas. 

One thing I noticed, you see its content as a Black Tea or Camellia Sinensis? It is actually the same leaves as Green Tea. I've read few blogs and research about their benefits cause of my curiosity. It has no difference in effect but only in getting the Black Tea leaves more exposed in Oxidation. That simply means they provide more health benefits attributed solely to green tea. 

And after all readings, what's important to me is knowing that they're actually the same.

I also asked if I can check the rooms for spa massage and yes! it's clean. It is divided by white sheet curtains and the bed is laying down on the floor. So excited to try! 

There you go. Hope this info helps! <3

Asian Secrets: Lulur Indonesian Whitening Body Scrub

I recently purchased the Green Tea and Vitamin E Asian Secrets and I think I'm loving it.

The scent is very original and tempting. It is a whitening beauty secret inspired by the Javanese ritual called Lulur. 


So I just learned that the "Lulur" ritual was intended for a bride-to-be in order to beautify, and whiten her skin before her wedding day. (Yes, that info was on the back of the item.)


So  I thought that thingy was perfect for me  since I do a lot of rituals before washing.The aroma last longer than the usual soap but since I always put on whitening lotion after, then I guess it didn't matter to me at all.


How I apply this product?


I use first the Jericho: Anti-Cellulite Soap, to remove the fatty skin. Then after rinsing, I wash my hair first so the conditioner won't mix with the body soap. Then I apply the Asian Secrets: Lulur Indonesian Whitening Body Scrub with Green Tea and Vitamin E. (Whew! That's long.) lol


So yep, I scrub it using loofah. I don't like using my hands for too long, it feels different and loofah can clean and exfoliate my skin better. I use this product every after 3 days or just when I feel extra special.


I let it stay for quite a while before rinsing it off as if i'm letting my body absorb the vitamins. 


For the mean while, I sing like Dia Frampton or do a lil acting or brush my nails to enjoy the waiting time. I don't read books in the shower, not comfy at all but I hope I can do that real soon. 


What I like about this product is that, it really feels soft and silky. That all the dirt has been literally removed. And you know that the advertisement says it all. So for P80.00 - I think? You can save up to 5 body scrub sessions. What a saving!


No pictures yet cause ya'll  know my phone has been gone. 


And that's all that I can say about this product. Perfect for everyone!


Have a sweet day fellas! :)

Sulfur San-Ing Cream: Anti-acne Keratolytic

2010 when I created a blog post for this product. So many changes happened. Difference now is that my face became sensitive. So I am extra careful on what I apply. 

Right now, aside from  Hydro-Cortisone Cream is the Celeteque Acne Spot Corrector Gel. For the price of  P169.00 you only get a 5 ml solution that will last for 3-4 weeks for me. Now that's not the problem. It's okay and I don't want to risk on any other so I'll not discontinue using that. 

However, I visited Mercury Drugstore on my way home to check out some beauty stuffs and was wondering what if I purchase the Egyptian Cream that I just read and watch over Bubbi's review. (Bubzbeauty)

Then I saw that Sulfur San-Ing Cream, that me and my sister used to apply on our face back  then when it was still normal. (Gahh! I just don't like to remember disappointing things, but it instantly pops out.)

Anyway, I ended up buying it. If you know what I mean. That thing was just for P20.00 until now so NO hesitations at all. Doubts on how should I apply it? You see, that cream was like my base before.  No concealer, no powder.. sometimes. Just...just that!

How I did it this time?

1. Same routine, I washed my face gently with a facial foam for sensitive skin in circular motion. Maybe for you, wash with a mild non-medicated soap then rinse with warm water, as this will allow your skin pores to open, and pat dry. 

2. Apply Sulfur San-Ing Cream in a thin layer only on the acne spot or even fresh pimples. Also avoid the eye area and broken skin.

3. I suggest you do it over-night as your skin regenerates and so you can avoid pollution while you have it under repair with sulfur. Guess what, it has no itchiness, redness or anything on me.

Just don't use it if you'll stay longer and exposed in the sunlight. You might get sun burn irritation, chapped scaly skin or visible peeling. Unless you work at night like me.
As you can see why I trust this so much, sulfur has many properties that makes it excellent in caring for the skin. Not just normal skin but to moderate/sensitive ones. Here's what I know about it:
1. It is Antibacterial - which works by limiting key acids required for bacteria to grow.
2. Keratolytic - which means sulfur's properties encourage the shedding of dead skin cells, prevents blocked pores and helps keep skin looking fresh.
3. Anti-inflammatory - which penetrates the skin and reduce lesions.
That's it. I hope you learned something. But try to search it on and see for yourself.

With much love.

Stolen Phone. Be responsible on your stuffs!

Yep.  My phone has just been stolen.

But thank God nothing bad happened to us. I'm not sad at all knowing that I can buy that again and I have a good job that secures me. But anyway,  it was my fault because I am too clumsy and that I don't mind anything around me.

So for ya'll girls and guys make sure to be attentive for all the time. Don't rely on your boyfriend or to anyone to check out on you. I hope I be extra careful this time because any place is way too dangerous.

Til then! <3

Homemade Face-mask: Oatmeal+Milk+Calamansi


Cheers to my new favorite DIY Homemade Face-mask!

All you be needing is 1 spoonfuls  of Oatmeal, Milk and Calamansi or Lemon. It smells really good and does wonder to your skin in 1 try. 



Homemade Oatmeal face masks are very popular because of its cleansing, exfoliant and moisturizing properties. 

Oatmeal for face, I can say, is  an excellent homemade remedy to enhance you're appearance. To make your skin feel smooth, soft, healthy and radiant, I suggest you take advantage of what oatmeal can provide. 

Here, I would like to share how you can take beauty benefit of oatmeal by applying homemade face masks that won't hurt your budget, and while you relax or in my case, working. :)


My Oatmeal mixture face mask #2:
To prepare a simple face mask with oatmeal, you only need 1 spoonfuls of oatmeal and instead of water to make a smooth paste, I use 2 calamansi or maybe 4-5 pinches of lemon, this will lighten your scar and effectively remove those black heads and dark spots. Apply the mixture on the face evenly and wait for 20 or more minutes. Rinse it off with lukewarm water. Milk is to make your facial skin more supple and soft. This mixture is fantastic. You can  create your own mixture. Maybe I'll try honey for the next semester. I'll just see how this one works for 1 week. 
After rinsing the mixture off, apply your moisturizer. For me, I use hydro-cortisone cream that was suggested by my dermatologist. Then lock in the moisture using ice. Yes, one of my rituals.
So that's it for now, anyway, it won't hurt to try.
Enjoy!
yummy. xD
