Do you have a product that really is a staple in your vanity or cupboard? We always have a thing or two that should never run empty or else our routine will not be completed.

I have a few things that should not run out from my cupboard. These products are my staples for life. I always make sure that these products will be always available. I make sure to purchase it every month. Do you do the same?

Thank you, sponsors!

Thank, God, shopping online gives me the ease to buy these products that are not available in the province. Sometimes, I use online shopping rather than getting it in grocery stores or supermarkets because it is cheaper, and sometimes has cashback. I think the traditional shops should step up their game when it comes to selling their product. The online shopping industry might take over.

These are the repetitive purchases

1) Green tea

I have been drinking tea for seven years now. The first time I drink tea I did not like it. It is expected because truly it does not taste good for the first timers. There are a lot iof benefits of tea. It eradicates toxins in the body and flushes away. It is also good for people with diabetes, heart diseases, and other organ issues. Japan is known to be the highest drinking tea population in the world. This is why they have one of the longest lives in the world. Tea makes you in shape and healthy. The brand that I usually get is Gold Leaf. The flavor that I get is honey and lemon. Per box is 25 tea bags. It costs around USD 3 per box.

2) Collagen and Vit C supplements

I always get this in combo so that I have a discount. This has been my supplements for 2 years now. The collagen makes your skin, hair, and nails beautiful and healthy. The vitamin C is for the immune system and for glowing skin. They are perfect combination. The brand that I get is Puritan's Pride. I look for their official account on Shopee and Lazada because there are several sellers of fake proucts. These costs about USD 24 in total.

3) Facial Cleanser

Right now this is what I am using. I have tried other facial cleanser such as Celeteque, Cetaphil, Biore, etc. I find this one to lessen my big pores and makes my skin less dull. I user Cetaphil when I have rashes or pink spots because it is more gentle. This is shipped from Korea so I have to wait for extra days before using it. If I have to rate it, I would give this 8/10. I got this onsale for about half the price. The original price of this is about USD 15.

4) Retinol

Right now I am using the The Ordinary Retinol. I have been using this for over 6 months now and I am loving it! It makes the dull and dark spots away and lessen the poreses in my nose. I like the company because they are straightforward in their objective to give the consumer the real formula in a budget. I like it that they are also cruelty free company. I also have other products from The Ordinary like Vit C and AHA BHA. I got this for about USD 18.

5) Dark Chocolates

I like to have little snacks on my desk while working. Dark choclates are known to have anti oxidants and healther version of the sweetened chocolates. I only limit myself to eat 2 blocks of chocolate. I am only eating this when I feel sluggish or lazy for the day. I prefer buying those in mini packaging so that I can control myself. Also, I do like like food that is opened because bugs and ants might crawl into it. Right now, I have the mini dark Toblerone. The cost is abou USD 4.

Final Thoughts

Before buying these products, I researched first and make sure that I am buying the product that I like. Sometimes, chocolates which are not really necessary is bought because it makes me happy. It is not neccesarily that the product is about beauty and health. Indulging to something like chocolate is fine. I also saved up to buy these products because I do not want to touch my savings. Do you have repeat products, too?

We have a convenience store nearby that's why we don't have the need to purchase things online other than if we want something that is not found in the store that is not of immediate need.
