Oxy Ultimate Cleanser: It’s minty, it’s refreshing!

I love love love cleanser. And I love drugstore cleanser especially the one from Oxy. Just earlier this month Oxy came out with a HOT PINK new cleanser. The Oxy Ultimate Cleanser is a 8-in-1 multi-action cleanser for acne, blackhead, and oily skin. Phew! That is one hella lot claims Oxy!

I was excited when I get this from the mail. First of all, the hot pink. I know, silly me. But you know pink and white is like my most favourite colour 🙂 . And Oxy is a known brand for problematic skin. Recently I have been getting bumps and breakouts, which I have no idea what causes it. So this cleanser came at the right time.

Melvita Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Anti-Ageing

Melvita Nectar Supréme The Cream and The Eye & Lip Contour Cream: Queen Bee’s secret to staying young and beautiful at any age

When I attended the Melvita and L’Occitane luncheon two months ago, I was told that the efficacy of L’Occitane Immortelle 28 Day Divine Renewal Program will be even better if paired with the new Melvita Nectar Supréme The Cream and The Eye & Lip Contour Cream. And so I did.

Melvita Nectar Supréme
I cannot stress enough the importance of starting your anti-aging regime at the early age. How early is early? Let’s say early 20s? I started quite late but it was not too late for me as I have oily skin so that sort of prevented all the signs of aging from appearing. I still remember my ex used to tell me the importance of aging and that is to age gracefully. He said I’m one perfect example of aging gracefully. Melvita’s new Nectar Supréme range is made from an unique complex of precious nectar from the beehive by combining Kniphofia nectar with all precious ingredients from the beehive such as the patented complex of three organic honeys, nourishing royal jelly, and beeswax.

L’Occitane Immortelle 28 Day Divine Renewal Program: A quick way to regenerate and renewal your skin state in a month

The L’Occitane Immortelle 28 Day Divine Renewal Program was made available at our local L’Occitane stores in October 2015 and at that time I was dealing with some life issues that I was not about to put this program for a trial and to tell you about it. But fret not. I am finally on my last week of the program and I can finally tell you about it.

L’Occitane Immortelle 28 Day Divine Renewal Program
This L’Occitane Immortelle 28 Day Divine Renewal Program would be my first time ever indulging into such skin renewal program and honestly, I do not know what to expect but a skin that is 100% better than my current condition. Afterall this program does not come cheap.

Review: Skin Care Sephora Skin Care - Masks

Sephora Orchid Eye Mask: On the pricier side, comfortable on the skin but sadly does not deliver what was claimed

What I like about Sephora is that members get rewarded with birthday gift every year. Every year I get to claim my birthday gift on any day as long as it is within my birthday month i.e. September. This year however I was not allowed to claim my birthday gift. It seems that Sephora had changed their policy. An email notification will only be sent one week AFTER the actual birthday. No biggie about that as I received my email in just a few days after my birthday. And if I make a purchase, I will be rewarded with double points. I took this opportunity to check out the new sleeping mask but went home with Sephora Orchid Eye Mask instead 😀

Sephora Orchid Eye Mask
My concern for the eye area has always been the fine lines and wrinkles. Those are signs of aging unfortunately, which is probably the one and only main concern for me when it comes to aging as these nasty lines makes me look older and haggard. There are a handful or two selections for their eye mask. I went with Orchid after talking to the Elaine, the friendly BA at Sephora IOI City Mall *thanks Elaine for the helpful assistance*!

Budget - Skin Care Budget Buy Hada Labo Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Hydrating Skin Care - Whitening

Hada Labo Whitening Cooling Gel Lotion: Multifunction whitening gel with excellent hydration properties

More and more brands are coming up an all-in-one product and Hada Labo is one of them. The latest addition to the brand’s wide array of Hyaluronic Acid based skincare is the Whitening Cooling Gel Lotion, a multifunction 5-in-1 lotion that functions as a lotion, mask, essence, astringent, and emulsion.

Hada Labo Whitening Cooling Gel Lotion
The Hada Labo Whitening Cooling Gel Lotion is the first 5-in-1 multifunction lotion. It contains two types of Hyaluronic Acid – Hyaluronic Acid and Nano Hyaluronic Acid, which is a staple for Hada Labo products. Hyaluronic Acid is important as it provides instant cooling refreshing sensation and instant penetration into the skin’s deepest layer for deep hydration minus the stickiness.

GLAMGLOW® Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Masks

GLAMGLOW FLASHMUD™ Brightening Treatment: Instant face brightening mask with visible results within first 3 usage

After GLAMGLOW released four Mud-to-Foam Cleansers back in April, I have been thinking to myself what’s next for GLAMGLOW. What else could the Hollywood’s backstage secret brand come out with? It did not occur to me that what’s missing within its range is a brightening treatment product. And that is exactly what GLAMGLOW launched earlier this month. GLAMGLOW FLASHMUD™ would be a joy to those who like brightening product, like me 🙂

GlamGlow FlashMud
I am a sucker for packaging. Usually it’s pretty cute packaging that always suck me into buying but in GLAMGLOW’s case, if I were to spend RM255 on ONE product, I would expect a darn good packaging. Some said the box is unnecessary. I guess it depends on each individual. I am not a bit bothered by the outer box. I only wish the box is metal or something so I can reuse for beauty storage. Oh and all GLAMGLOW products packaging are designed personally by it’s co-founder Glenn Dellimore 🙂
