EVE LOM Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Masks

Review: EVE LOM Rescue Mask; Deep Cleansing Mask + Scrub at the Same Time

Have you heard before that a 2-in-1 shampoo are not good for the hair? 2-in-1 as in wash and condition at the same time. But not all duo functional products are as bad as what the shampoo had caused. Just like 8-in-1 BB cream which is also bad for your skin but yet millions use that everyday haha.

The recent 2-in-1 product that I’ve been using on and off for the past 3 months is the EVE LOM Rescue Mask. At one glance it’s actually a deep cleansing mask but there’s also a second usage of the mask.

For combination / oily and acne prone skin like mine, I treat deep cleansing mask like a heaven-sent product. Whenever someone told me they have congested pores I always always tell them to use a deep cleansing mask at least once a week. As for me I slap on deep cleansing mask 3 times a week. Reason being is that I have serious congested pores. There are times where I focus too much on mask that I neglected facial scrubs. I didn’t realize that both actually work well hand in hand until I consulted a beauty trainer. There I was sitting down and complaining about my congested pores and the first question that was given to me is “do you use facial scrub too?”. Ohh crap! Then only I know I’ve neglected my facial scrub and rely solely on deep cleansing mask!

I was attracted to EVE LOM because of the simple and clean packaging. Their signature is white tube / jar with gold name stamp. For some reason this type of packaging seems elegant and looked expensive to me. Talking about luxury in a tube eh?

Neutrogena Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Sunblock/Sunscreen

Review: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Complete UV Waterlight Lotion SPF50+ PA+++

Phew what a long name for a sunblock! I was given Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Complete UV Waterlight Lotion SPF50+ PA+++ last month as a part of an event door gift. I never get sunblock as door gift before and I was kind of addicted to sunblock so I love love loveeee this!

To be frank I never seen this around at any drugstore before. Even recently when I tried to find this at Watsons and Guardian to check for the price I couldn’t find it at several outlet. How weird.

Who would have thought Neutrogena came out with a sunblock. I only know Neutrogena when it comes to skin care. And that’s pretty much it. This one is called Ultra Sheer Complete UV Waterlight Lotion which is rather confusing for me at first. Lotion is also another name for “toner”. When I saw this I thought it’s toner but then when I see that it comes with SPF50+ PA+++ I realized this could be is a sunblock.

Review: Skin Care Sampar Skin Care - Face Mist Skin Care - Hydrating

Review: My Quest for Hydrated Skin Continues with Sampar Skin Quenching Mist

Healthy skin is well hydrated skin. That’s the philosophy I hold on to. I’m obsessed with skin care products that claimed to give me hydrated skin. So when Sampar sent me a bottle of their Skin Quenching Mist to try, I was more than delighted. I mean just look at the name of the product; Skin Quenching. Doesn’t it sound delicious? Maybe not to you but it is to me! Quench my thirsty skin pleeeaaassseeee.

Marula Oil Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Beauty Oil Skin Care - Hydrating Skin Care - Wrinkle / Fine Lines

Review: Marula Oil; The Purest Facial Oil From The Leakey Collection

First of all sorry for the super late review post that I was suppose to post up earlier. I was piled with lots of backlog last month and I’m glad I can finally get to my precious Marula Oil review now. Hope it’s not too late!

Last month I attended the Malaysia launch and did a brand introduction post on Marula Oil from The Leakey Collection. I also helped with inviting a few of my blogger friends to attend this exclusive and intimate launch. Hope you’ve been reading that previously as I’m not going to elaborate deeply into how, what and why but instead I’m going to review the product after using it for more than a month now.

Marula Oil is an East African product long-renowned for it’s superb anti-aging and healing properties. It is wild-harvested from marula nuts in East Africa and cold-pressed to retain it’s full goodness. Did you know that a 54 kilos of marula nut is needed to produce into this 50ml bottle? Now you know. Marula Oil is different from any other beauty oil that you’ve heard for example argan oil. It contain more oleic acids and antioxidants than grapeseed or organ oil.


Each bottle is packaged in a paper box securely. The inner lid with a hole tucked on the top cap of the bottle so that the bottle is not able to move that easily in the box. The shelf life of the product is 3 years. Once opened it is recommended to finish the bottle within 6 months.

Clarins Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Whitening

Review: Clarins White Plus HP Intensive Whitening Smoothing Serum is Not As Intensive As I Think

While many people use Clarins White Plus HP Intensive Whitening Smoothing Serum to whiten their complexion and pigmentation, I on the other hand use it for something else. My main problem has always been acne marks. After trying a few trial size of Intensive Whitening Smoothing Serum that was given to me from my various haul, I think it’s okay for me to move forward. I switched from All Spots Whitening Corrector to this just recently as All Spots Whitening Corrector is mainly for pigmentation and it’s expensive too.


Clarins claimed that this lightweight serum is the ultimate in hyper pigmentation control and skin tone correction with dramatic results in just 4 weeks. Acne marks are not as extreme as pigmentation so I suppose it’ll work faster if not better?

BRAND'S Review: Skin Care Skin Care - Beauty Drink

Review: Nourishing Your Skin From Within with BRAND’S InnerShine RubyCollagen Essence

Recently I’ve embarked on a new journey in my beauty regime. After many years of hearing about collagen drink I’m finally on it. Thanks to BRAND’S InnerShine RubyCollagen Essence I find that collagen drink is not as bad as everyone been saying.

Y’all know how many steps I implement in my daily skin care routine right? All these skin care is called “topical skin care” as it sits on the surface of the skin and only 30% (or less) gets into the skin. I’ve explained this theory before in this post. What happen if you keep spending and spending on skin care but finds that it’s still not there yet (like me)? Well I think it’s time to think of other alternative because no matter how many more steps I implement or how expensive the product gets…it’s still useless if I didn’t start to nourish my skin from within.

In this review you would be seeing my week by week progress for 28-days. I won’t go too scientific as you can read from the website link that I will be posting at the end of the review but I’m gonna tell you how it is to me throughout this 28-days trial.

You’d not miss this BRAND’S InnerShine RubyCollagen Essence at the supermarket with it’s distintive striking color. By far this is the most attractive collagen drink that would definitely lure me to purchase. I sucks at pretty or cute packaging lol :). Most girls do!


Anti-aging should start from early age. You can be 25 but you started to have fine lines at the corner of your eyes. Signs of ageing doesn’t mean you’re old. It could triggered from many factors beside age.
