White Vanity Confessions from a Tsinoy

I wouldn’t say that I have dark skin, neither do I have white skin. I consider myself fair-skinned and above-average for Filipino standards. But being a Tsinoy/Chinoy (half Chinese, half Filipino), my Chinese friends would immediately agree that I’m not “white” enough for the Yellow Race.

So when is having a white skin “white” enough? Or on the other end of the spectrum, when is dark skin, “dark“? Both are actually subjective and lies on the judgemental eye. At the end of the day, it’s how comfortable you are with your skin color.

Just to put it out there, I’m actually contented with my fair-colored skin (Instagram filters always come to the rescue). But I guess it wouldn’t hurt to get a bit more fairer, right?

Trying SnowCaps L-Glutathione Capsules

I recently came across the SnowCaps brand as recommended by my friend Mae. I guess it also helped that their latest endorser is Alden Richards who is half of the hot “Aldub” social media and Twitter “Love Team” trend; specially with the upcoming Valentine’s Day which is quite big here in the Philippines.

Going back to SnowCaps L-Glutathione, I first had to check what I was going into and I was glad to know that aside from the usual benefit of glutathione which is whitening the skin, SnowCaps L-Glutathione also helps our general health being a potent antioxidant. Moreover, it is known to help cases of cataracts, glaucoma, chronic fatigue, hepatitis, asthma, cancer, liver diseases, and heart diseases, among others.

I started taking it early this year and I’m on my 2nd month now, 5th week to be exact. I don’t have the above-mentioned chronic diseases but what I experienced were better sleep at night and the ability to wake up in the morning with ease.

You can ask my wife or my friends, I’m a night owl and I’m not a morning person so for me to sleep early and wake up early is a surprise.

My second self-observation is I’m generally stronger and experience less-fatigue. Aside from blogging, I run a social media marketing agency called Digital Circles collaborating with bloggers and brand/clients for online campaigns. And on Momdays, I teach IT courses at a local Chinese college. Those three hats are more than enough to eat up 24hours of my day in a addition to being a husband, a son, and a friend.

So it’s not surprising that I often find myself tired and exhausted. I really felt my body fatigue reduced since a few weeks ago. I guess Snow Caps L-Glutathione and my morning intake of Organique Acai food supplements were big factors in my health improvements.

And of course, the “fairer” skin effect. Although the white skin effect can be observed significantly within three months of intake, I think I’m on the way to a whiter skin.

Glutathione vs L-Glutathione

Another thing that piqued my curiosity about Snow Caps is the “L-Glutathione” term. Yes, glutathione is famous here in the Philippines, but “L-Glutathione” was new to me then.

So I made a brief research and discovered that L-Glutathione is considered a wonder antioxidant. Each SnowCaps capsule contains a controlled formulation of L-glutathione with Alpha Lipoic Acid and Vitamin C.

Glutathione, by itself is known as the mother of all antioxidants being the most important molecule. It is also naturally produced by our liver and it is commonly found in fruits and vegetables including spinach, tomatoes, brocolli, oranges, and even meat. Glutathione levels also drop as we age so taking glutathione supplements is an ideal practice.

As per L-Glutathione (Reduced Glutathione), it is an oxidised form of glutathione which makes it easily absorbed by our body. Moreover, adding adding Vitamin C (2x to 3x) to L-Glutathione keeps it in its absorbable form.

Snow Skin Whitening Soap

I also began to use the Snow Skin Whitening Soap to complement my Snow Caps regimen. However, I initially used it for my body only since I have sensitive facial skin, and used to have acne. Having started Snow Caps at the same time,  I’d know if Snow Caps L-Glutathione had a side effect on my acne-prone skin sans the soap, just in case.

A quick research reveals that the Snow White soap contains ACE-B3, an anti-oxidant complex, which is a combination of Aloe Vera Extract, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and Niacinamide B3. Theses components help in skin moisturising, free-radical defense, photo-damage, and skin whitening, respectively.

Moreover, its Gigawhite component promotes optimal skin penetrating formulation with 7 plants extracts from the Swiss Alps that works on both color and size of age spots.
