Mama Loves: Skin Cravings

November 11, 2011 by Sheila | A B & Me 1 Comment

Ever  since I got pregnant, my body started changing. It became dry and dark. Imagine my frustration because I can’t use any product for fear of harming my baby and probably making my skin break out due to hormones. 
 
I love everything “fruit scented” on my skin. (Well, probably not the scent of Durian … but you get the point). I prefer colognes and mists over perfumes. Strong scents make my head spin that’s why I always go for light fruity fragrances. And that is why I’m so excited about these products!
 
Skin Cravings Scrub Me Pretty. A gentle body scrub that exfoliates and moisturizes the skin … exactly what I need!
Don’t you just love the packaging? Fear not, they are made of plastic. It’s really nice, no?
 
Scrub Me Pretty comes in three variants: Cranberry Yoghurt, Strawberry Yoghurt and Dewberry Yoghurt.

Fruit and Yoghurt on your body? PERFECT

I went for Strawberry Yoghurt first and I’ve been using it for the past three days. After my regular soap wash (it’s not a cleanser so you need to soap up first) I make sure to scrub myself thoroughly with Strawberry Yoghurt and I can really feel a difference.

My first thoughts were: “it really does smell of strawberry yoghurt!” and “it feels like yoghurt too!”

Now I come out of the bath exfoliated and moisturized! But wait… there’s more!!

Skin Cravings Smooth Over Body Lotion in Choc’ Mint Cookies and Strawberry Cream.

Of course, I used Strawberry Cream to compliment my scrub. :p

What I like about Skin Cravings Body Lotion is that it’s not greasy. We don’t want anything greasy in this type of weather, especially here in the Philippines.

It’s easily absorbed but very moisturizing. I can’t say anything wrong about these products. It really makes the Mama happy. As they say… happy mama means happy baby!

– Skin Cravings is a local brand – a big plus!! Let’s support our own. You can check them out in FB:

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)

You’re really a hard habit to break.
