Review: Biofitea Herbal Dietary Tea

Biofitea Herbal Dietary Tea Review 

Review: Biofitea Herbal Dietary Tea


Hi lovelies! Sorry for the long hiatus. Internet connection is very slow since the holidays. I am thinking of changing ISP soon, thinking about Wi-tribe (4g connection), PLDT My DSL and Globe Wimax LTE. I currently use Sun Broadband and seriously I don't know if our place is congested with users or is the connection just plain slow. Anyway let us get on to my review today, just recently I have looked for a short cut to flat tummy. There is no way you can fake a flat tummy in reality unless you do photoshop (only in pictures!) so I was confused. I only have 2 weeks in preparation before our group's "big day". We need to wear our costume again which requires, tentetenenen - showing of tummies. I was doomed!

Exercise won't be enough so I scoured Mercury Drug for slimming teas and I found Biofitea! I have high hopes that it will work. Caution now that this is a slimming tea and review is about a laxative product. Okay, so after using for 2 weeks now, did it work? Read on to find out~

What it is?
"BioFitea is made from first class Senna herb carefully processed to comply with the meticulous international standards of herbal tea preparation. No chemical solution added."
It is a slimming tea which is 'laxative'.
Laxatives (purgatives, aperients) are substances that loosen stools and increase bowel movements. They are used to treat and prevent constipation. Laxatives vary based on how they work and the side effects they have. -Wikipedia

I read on and found that prolonged use is not recommended. Pls see this link before trying this out.



Packaging
I can buy this is single sachets, and also in one box with 10 sachets. Complete with all the indications, directions etc

Experience
I carefully thought of on how I will use Biofitea. I don't want to be 'doing it' just anywhere. Remember that this is laxative. I have decided to drink it once a day preferably night time after meal. Regular bowel movements every morning, check. However I feel uncomfortable even when I am outside which is such a hassle because before, I am always on-the-go doing sales call and focusing on computer related tasks. I tried to stick to my plan and with an extra effort of exercise everyday, I had my routine going for 2 weeks.

As for the taste of Biofitea, there is absolutely no complains with it. I usually drink this cold, I am not a fan of hot drinks unless its coffee or hot chocolate. It taste like a popular iced tea available in the market today. I was actually expecting that it will have weird taste because its herbal, glad that I was wrong. Little by little I noticed difference and soon enough my old shorts are fit once more.

How much and where to buy?
I bought mine from Mercury Drug Store but Watsons also have this available. If my memory serves me right its only P5/ sachet.

What I love

  • Lessen tummy fats
  • stimulates weight loss
  • Detoxifies body
  • Ease digestion 
  • Can reduce constipation
  • Taste good
  • Affordable
  • Accessible product


What I don't

  • Not for prolong use
  • The Abdominal discomfort


TIPS:
Drink before night time
Limit usage of 2 weeks or so

Will I repurchase?
Yes but maybe only after a month.

Overall~
Biofitea is an effective herbal dietary tea. Especially when used with an added exercise which makes the effect appear faster IMO. I was able to show up my tummy after the 2 weeks, can you believe that? Not much flab appeared but my tummy is not really 'flat' but there is no magic secret to success. Hoho, with the right diet and exercise, who knows?
How about you lovelies, do you have a routine you follow for a flat tummy? Share on below, I would love to read your comments!

Review: Mestiza Complete Herbal Soap

Hi sweeties don't you just love the heat? :) Wait haha, who am I kidding? Summer is fast approaching and the scorching heat is already killing meh~ Today I will review Mestiza, a soap raved by Donna of My Lucid Intervals this review made me buy the soap. Hoho~

Okay so this is the soap box. Kindly click if you would like to read the details :)


REVIEW:
Mestiza Herbal Soap is quite intriguing because of its contents: Papaya, Carrot, Banana, Calamansi and Virgin Coconut Oil. Only the good!

It's like a complete package already as it claims to do more than whitening our skin. This soap is unscented which is super fine with me. It helped me lessen my breakouts (take note the word 'lessen'). Using this soap  made me feel squeaky clean. It made my skin a bit dry, but nothing a moisturizer and lotion can't fix though! *winks*

Mestiza soap however didn't whiten my skin. Maybe it will take a few more bars. I have the feeling that it does whiten and effects will be gradual as long as you use the soap.

How much?

Less than P50 (can't remember the exact price) for 120 grams of product. It is worth it, plus the soap doesn't melt easily!

Will I repurchase?

I already have a long list of soaps I want to try so repurchasing this might take a long time but I might opt for Mestiza Herbal Soap once I feel the need for a safe herbal bath soap.
