Review: Delay Signs of Ageing Using “Light Energy” With Talika Photo-Beauty Therapy® Anti-Ageing Line

I am a little lazy when it comes to anti-ageing thanks to my oily skin. Not sure if you are aware that people who have oily skin are commonly known to have no wrinkle if not lesser. I am too caught up with combating excessive oil secretion and lightening acne marks that I have neglected anti-ageing. It’s about time I started on anti-ageing…afterall I’m not young anymore 😛

Anti-ageing is more than just wrinkle on the face. When you age your skin will age too. The signs of ageing is quite common such as having fine lines, wrinkle, lost of collagen, lost of elasticity, lost of firming and lost of hydration. The question that I get people asking all the time is what age is the right age to start anti-ageing skin care regime. I believe one should start using anti-ageing products in the 20s. Please keep in your mind that starting anti-ageing products in the 20s is only damage prevention not damage reversal. You will then notice that you will need different product in your 20s, 30s, 40s and so on.

Clarins Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Scrubs

Review: Clarins Gentle Refiner Exfoliating Cream With Microbeads is One Harsh Scrub But Gentle On The Skin And I Like The Way It Is

If you are facing congested pores, excess oil secretion and large pores issue like what I had you might want to start implementing facial scrub into your cleansing regime. Facial scrub is one of a must-have product that I don’t mind stocking up. Currently I’m rotating between 4 different type of scrub and I’m not shy to admit that I scrub my face on every alternate days. Some of you might think I’m over-scrubbing my face. For normal skin type yes, as for me it’s not too much at all because of my congested skin condition.

It is not a surprise that Clarins is still one of the skin care that I am still using till to date although I haven’t been reviewing their product much nowadays. That’s because I’ve reviewed most of the Clarins that I have on hand. As I’ve gone through 2 tubes of Gentle Refiner Exfoliating Cream With Microbeads it struck me one day that I had totally forgotten to review this. I guess it’s never too late since this is not seasonal or limited edition item within the brand. It’s permanent don’t worry 🙂

Clarins went through a packaging revamp phase back in 2011. This last tube that I had in my stash is the new packaging. Absolutely love the new look and packaging. The signature white interface with red wording is still maintained as it has been Clarins signature for so many years.

Part 2 Review: Guerlain Blanc de Perle Smoothing UV Base Smoothes and Blurs Imperfection

If you recall a few months ago that I bought a Correcting UV Base and I said Smoothing UV Base would be in my wish list since I have large pores. No kidding. This year you will see four different UV bases in Blanc de Perle range namely UV Shield, Lightening UV Base, Smoothing UV Base and Correcting UV Base. This fluid transparent formula provides an invisibly new perfection to every skin tone. As the name suggest it smoothes over the smallest blemish while covers and reducing the appearance of dark spots, wrinkles, fine lines and signs of fatigue.

The packaging of the Smoothing UV Base is nothing to shout about besides the shiny silver screw cap, which I constantly dropped it to the floor as the screw part is too smooth. Nah, I’m just clumsy. I bet you knew that. It came in a squeeze tube that is easily controllable. Normally I would just squeeze some amount onto the back of my hand, smooth over my face and add more when necessary. This way I can prevent wastage because you just couldn’t un-squeeze the excess from the back of your hand back to the tube isn’t it? So I have no problem with the tube so far.

EVE LOM Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Firming Skin Care - Hydrating Skin Care - Wrinkle / Fine Lines

Review: EVE LOM TLC Radiance Cream

What is TLC? TLC as we know means Tender Loving Care. That’s exactly what EVE LOM wants too. To give you the best tender, loving and care. There aren’t many products in EVE LOM but they have a very small range for matured skin which is what TLC is for.

In the TLC series there is only 2 product. I did say it’s a very small range right? Both of the product is also cream. The only difference is one is in tube which is more lightweighted while one is in a jar which is more creamier. The one that I’m going to talk about is more suitable for me which is TLC Radiance Cream.

Eve Lom54
TLC Radiance Cream is no doubt a cream but it is lightweight than other usual cream. It is infused with age-defying and protective benefits that will help to transform dull and maturing skin on the day time. The skin will feel soft, hydrated, radiant and youthful. It’s ingredient include Arctic Rasberry Seed Oil as a powerful antioxidant, Rosehip Seed Oil which is a natural source of Vitamin A and Vitamin C that protects the skin from free radicals while restoring skin elasticity. There is also Oat Kernel Extract and Sepilift that provide immediate skin lifting and helps to smooth fine lines.

Hiruscar Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Acne Marks Treatment

Review: Hiruscar Post Acne Gel For Acne Scar and Dark Marks Gave Me Breakout Instead!

No you did not read wrong. This product that I’m about to talk to you today is a post acne gel specially formulated to treat our number #1 enemy – acne scars and dark marks. But why the title is about breakout? You are about to find out.

While Mederma doesn’t work at all for me, I was hoping this Hiruscar Post Acne Gel For Acne Scar and Dark Marks works better since it’s especially for post acne scars. I purposely drove to the nearest Watsons in the neighborhood to get this. There is a few variant and I settled with the most expensive and most promising one.

Hiruscar1
At the point where I bought this…my skin was in one of the best state I ever had. Breakout wave stopped for a good few weeks which I was happy about it. Previous acne marks on both jawline faded but there is still just a tiny bit of darker marks to take care of. Which is why I wanted to give this gel a try.
