Mon Chéri, a French-inspired skincare company has already built a name for themselves when it comes to skincare offerings. Now, Mon Chéri has launched a complete cosmetic line named Collection De Bouquet and this completes its existing Petal CC Cover and Lumiere Complexion & Pore Refiner, which was launched in February 2017 as a whole complete cosmetic range.

The entire cosmetic line has 13 products in total, 11 which was newly added into the Collection De Bouquet line. Packaging wise in my personal preference is absolutely beautiful and aptly done according to the brand’s identity and theme. It features white and champagne gold packaging with Mon Chéri signature flower decorated all over to complete the look of elegance and luxury.

Glowing and Matte Lipstick (RM75)

The show-stopper is the lipstick range – Glowing Lipstick and Matte Lipstick. A total of 17 colors were launched all together, with 5 color selections (rose pink, coral, peach orange, rose red) to choose from. There are two texture and formulation as well – G, which I asssumed stands for Glowing aka cream lipstick and M, which stands for matte lipstick. It has all the usual goodness ingredients such as Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Plum Seed Oil and 3 antioxidiant ingredients. The matte lipstick are not a full on matte but a velvet-like rich matte with satin effect. The shades offering are not that huge with just 5 shades available. All 17 Glowing and 5 Matte lipstick are absolutely beautiful!

Chameleon Lipbalm (RM75)

Now, this one I like! The tinted, color-changing lipbalm. This lipbalm doesn’t need much introduction. It changes color according to body temperature and lip color. Ingredients in the lipbalm are equally good too – Vitamin E, Shea Butter and Olive Oil. Similar to their lipstick except for the change in Olive Oil.

Foundation (RM149)

Featuring Shine Fit Technology to enables the foundation to add a layer of luster to the skin to soften the look, Mon Chéri Foundation is a thin and lightweight foundation that claims to leave zero-burden and non-sticky texture on the skin. However, darker skin girls would need to bear with the limitation shades at the moment as there are just 3 shades available at the moment.

Compact Powder (RM125)

I love compact powder to set my foundation, but it has to be a thin coverage type so that I don’t add extra product onto the foundation. This Compact Powder from Mon Chéri is just that. This powder helps to rectify uneven skin tone and brighten dull complexion. With that, this does has a little bit of coverage. The finishing is matte, just as any other compact powder. It also comes with a puff too.

Loose Powder (RM96)

This Loose Powder gives me flashback to those days where sponge-top packaging are in trend. If you are a loose powder fan but dislike the dusty mess it gives like I do, this is your answer to that problem. The loose powder gives a soft and comfortable finishing, hence protecting the skin against dehydration. Perfect for those who dislike matte powder. The powder also absorb any excess oil, leaving you with a fresh look throughout the day. It has a somewhat soft touch effect therefore minimizes the appearance of large pores and fine lines.

Concealer (RM96)

You can now go for one concealer for the under eyes and spot concealing with this Concealer. Featuring a unique Perfecting Fitting Layer System, the concealer allows pigmentation particles in the cream to cover dark circles and even dark spots.

Blusher (RM80)

I think most people at the launch are attracted to these beautiful marble Blusher. The baked-texture enables a three-dimensional look for the cheeks. It is lightweight as a feather but because it is a baked blusher, the longevity tend to last longer up till the entire day. At the moment only two shades available – Pink Marble and Orange Peach.

Eye Shadow Palette (RM130)

Another item caught my eyes is none other than the Eye Shadow Palette. This quad has different shade depth from highlight to deep outline the eyes. I think you all are already the expert to know what to do with this quad without me even telling you which shade to use on which part of the eyes . It has 3 matte shades and one satin. Quite a versatile palette that suits most people’s preference these days.

Mascara (RM115)

Another item to take note is the Mascara, which has smaller spiral brush. The kind of brush that I like. This brush enables you to achieve that curl and fuller volume effect. It claims not to give any clumps with repeated application.

Water Proof Eyeliner (RM78)

We all need a waterproof eyeliner. All the rain and crying doesn’t help . Comes in two everyday shades – Black and Brown.

There you have it! A full glance into the most exciting launch of the year for Mon Chéri – the Collection De Bouquet cosmetic line. And I’m also happy to announce that Mon Chéri is on board to be our #IWillBeOkay Beauty Bay 2017 Edition sponsor!

Do you remember the time where we get the Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Capsules all the time in our beauty box many years ago? To be honest with you I have no idea what they was and how great they are. I kept them for a bit, they got expired and I threw everything away. Just two days ago, I attended the launch of Elizabeth Arden Advanced Ceramide Capsules Daily Youth Restoring Eye Serum, which I will refer to as Ceramide Eye Capsules in short from now onwards . The actual name is a mouthful LOL.

I am all-in when it comes to eye care. I don’t skip my eye cream because I have really dry under eyes with deep wrinkles . So compared to other people, I go all out on eye care. Having said that, sometimes I do went overboard and stop everything for a while I notice oil seeds forming. Yes, that do happens especially if the eye cream is too rich.

At the event, I learnt what is Ceramide and why the Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Capsules for the face is such a hit product. Our skin has somewhat like brick walls and what is holding these bricks together is something called “ceramide”. And Elizabeth Arden’s Ceramide serum is said to mimic our skin’s ceramide. Now that the Ceramide Eye Capsules are launched, I personally feel that the range is more complete.

Just for the eye serum, Elizabeth Arden used a brand new and improved Ceramide technology has been reimagined for the eyes, which is understandably the most delicate part of the face. Based on the previous 25 years of research, the formula was updated by adding extra 9 new ingredients to replenish essential naturally-occurring lipids and also to assist in supporting the skin’s natural renewal process. As this is an anti-aging product, Ceramide Eye Capsules also target all the key signs of aging. What the serum does is to immediately enhance the skin’s natural barrier by increasing the moisturization on the skin surface and hence reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

One thing good about these rubbery capsules is that they are absolutely biodegradable. These serums are in individual capsules and are meant for one usage only so that every time you use the product, you can be sure of the freshness and concentrated dose of moisture-boosting serum. The new formulation contain Ceramide 1,3, and 6. Ceramide 6 has AHA-like structure and it acts as a barrier renewal for a smoother, softer complexion. Other ingredients are as follow:

Skin Barrier Protection
– Ceramide 1, Ceramide 3, Ceramide 6, Cholesterol, Fatty Acids, Phytosphingosine, and Sea Fennel Extract.

Moisturization
– Botanical Complex Technology and Vitamin E.

Anti-Aging
– Tsubaki Oil, Hops Extract, Butcher’s Broom Extract, Vitamin A Palmitate, and Palmitoyl + Hexapeptide – 14.

I’m extremely intrigued with the new Elizabeth Arden Advanced Ceramide Capsules Daily Youth Restoring Eye Serum. Can’t wait to try

Earlier this year, I did a review on The Face Inc Primer Mist. This face mist came to me when I was obsessed with face mist. I still am . So when The Face Inc invited me for the launch of the Limited Edition Gold Primer Mist, I said yes. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I have to absent myself from the event and to meet the beautiful Tong Bing Yu, the product ambassador for The Face Inc. But it’s okay as The Face Inc kindly send me a set of the Limited Edition Gold Primer Mist!

I’m not going to elaborate much on it because it is the same exact product as the original Primer Mist. The only difference is the gold packaging in conjunction with The Face Inc’s 2nd anniversary. This face mist is a hydration face mist that is lightweight and works by smoothing and tighten the skin in just 15 seconds, together with instant hydration boost up to 15 times. The function remains the same as the original version as well. Because of this, I knew I would love this gold packaging one as well.

The brand itself is unique as they have an intelligent online skincare consultation system called Dr Rei. Dr Rei help customers to identify their skin concerns through a series of questionnaires and then prescribe the appropriate treatment products for them. Although The Face Inc is not largely viable through every walk-in stores except for Sasa, thanks to Dr Rei and the system, they are able to still make themselves accessible to consumers everywhere. At the moment The Face Inc has a presence in 9 countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China and Vietnam. Its 16 proprietary skin treatment products are being sold in more than 1,000 retail stores and by October 2017, The Face Inc will expand into 25 countries.
