GNC LAC Taut® Collagen Mask

When you will go to beauty shops, they have arrays of masks, some made from flowers, some from wines, green tea, etc...etc. I am quite hesitant to try some of those as the others agitates my face.

I am a proud member of GNC and I trusted all the products they are offering. When I renewed my membership, I redeemed my points and got some of their products and one of those is LAC Taut Collagen Infusion Mask.

After our vacation in a land with a temperature of 14degrees , I felt so tired and my skin, face and even my hair is so dry.

Eagerly to have a solution for this fiasco, I took a shower, scrub my face, dry up and immediately put in the collagen infusion mask to hydrate my face.

The mask texture is different from the other, its like a cloth unlike the other thats like made from simple cotton. After 10 minutes, I feel that my face really absorbed the moisture.

Thanks to GNC. Love this product. This costs $49.50 per box.

Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula - AHA Facial Wash

I have a drawer of beauty of products I am very hesitant to use any of those since I have a problem. Pimples started to appear on my forehead and they love their overstaying phase on my face. Frustrated, I sat down in front of my samples drawer and read one by one with a high hope that one bottle can help me with this issue. 

Like an imaginary light formed above, I read "struggling with acne?", calmed down and I read the instructions how to use the product. Immediately I closed the drawer and went in front of our lavatory and washed my face with Therapeutic facial wash. I am not expecting for an instant remedy but this facial wash alone dry up my swelled pimples for only two days of use (morning & evening). Now its my 7th day of using this facial wash and all I am dealing now is the marks left behind. 

I am a living proof of this product. :) You can buy this product at any Guardian Health and Beauty branches. Ask their skin consultants for this range of miracle bottle. 

Bio Multi-Effect BB Cream SPF25/PA++ - Bio-Essence

I am away from my niece almost a year, and as many people changes overnight and so my niece is. When she saw me, she asked " Tita do you have a bb cream in your kit?" as always, I answer question with another question, "What is  bb cream?". My niece jaws dropped into a shock fact that now I know less than anything. She answer me, that it is like a foundation, with relief told her "I saw some of those and yet I do not buy because I do not use any powder or foundation into my face".

Then, I was awarded this Bio-essence BB creams and cleansing oils by Cosmopolitan Singapore. As my last month's regular cycle visited me without a hint of bruises but a lot of pimples on my forehead. This is the first time it happened for 29 years of my life. Darn. I stopped all the things I use on my face except the toner. Seems year was waited until all were dried and lucky it was before our company's appreciation night.

Hesitant but I use this Bio Multi-Effect BB Cream with SPF25/PA++. Before I put it on, I watched a lot of youtube videos how and even pm Ate Stella(the MUA). Haha! So as instructed by the experts in world of makeups, I put a small part of on my hand, then gently tapped the cream from my forehead to my neck. I don't want have the feature of foundation, sometimes it makes the people face unnatural and lighter than the neck. I let the cream to sink in the first layer, then after 15 mins I tapped one more layer to my forehead. Then, all the scars on my forehead were gone. :)

Now I know to conceal some flaws of my face. As the night goes by, it never melt. It doesn't affect the other beauty add-ons, such as the eyeliner, eyeshadow and blush on.

Thanks Bio-essence and Advance Happy 1st Birthday to Cosmopolitan Singapore. This 30g tube costs is on discounted price of $19.60(UP $28) in Watsons stores.

Bifesta Sebum Cleansing Lotion (Non-rinse)

A sample was delivered and I almost forgot that I have this non-rinse make-up remover. I used before Shu Uemera Cleansing Oil but that product is way out of the budget. After We finished that oils, until now, we never buy another bottle. And due to that, I am so frantic to line-up my eyeliners again and I do not want to do a smoky eyes too.

It was our company appreciation night, I want to put some fierce and yet glimmered eyes together with my orange dress, anyway that was Saturday, no work for Sunday, if this cleansing lotion fails me, I have one more day to wash out the inks and colors of my eyeshadow.

After the party, I immediately got the vial, soaked my cotton pad with the lotion, put it on my eyes (as instructed). Yes! I am expecting that make up will be removed but not all and I am also expecting stains from my stubborn black eyeliner, but gosh, it was all gone. This is so awesome and yet so cheap.

This is only cost $4.90 in Watsons for 30ml bottle. Affordable. Very wallet friendly. Thanks Bifesta, can wear smoky eyes without blacked eyes the day after. :)

Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1

Wind, sun, dehydration and beverages are not only the factors of dry/chapped lips. Blame it also to the oral products we are using, mouthwash and toothpaste have chemicals that irritates the lips and results to dryness. This is what concerns me now.

After brushing teeth automatically I gargle for mouthwash, and it really leaves my lips dry. I am not fond using of any products on my lips, unless there is a special date to go, I will put on my brick red lipstick. But currently, I am so alarmed how my lips dries a lot this past few days. I have so many lip balm from different manufacturers but I chose to use Kiehl's first. Thank you to Cosmopolitan Singapore's "The Cosmo Caption Contest", there I got this product. 

I decided to put it on regularly every morning before going to office. Colorless, good point. I want to look as natural as I can in office. No blush on, no eyeliners and obviously lipstick is a big NO for me.

When I opened the tube, it make me think how to use it. After a small pinch, the gel will come out, am baffled what to use to get it from that tube. Should I use my fingers?, unsanitary. Put directly it on my lips?, the bacteria may develop to the opening itself. The greatest way is to use cotton buds... for me. 

For one week of using it, I really see the difference. No flaky lips in the afternoon, lesser dryness after my mouthwash routine, and my lips is softer than before. I never used petroleum jelly on any part of my body, why?, because it reminds me of the smell of my niece and nephews butts. Haha! But this lip balm with petroleum is odorless, nice one!  

Very recommendable to people who lives in a dry, hot place like Singapore or with snows. You can buy this lip balm with SPF4 for $17.

Bijinsenmon Face Slimming Mask

I am one of the winners of Bijinsenmon Face Slimming Mask facebook contest held by Confirm Trading, and I am so excited.

As my brothers told me, I have this very prime jaw line, the feature that gives me a fierce look.  Its not that I want to change it, but why not try to slim it down somehow. Ha!

Before the Slimming Mask - 13cm

I measured my jawline then my husband took a photo, its 13cm each side. As instructed, I put the mask on. There is feeling of stings and from there I know the fluid trying to penetrate now through my pores. After 20 mins and with clean hands, I took off the mask and start to massage it. OMG, I felt burning sensation on that area, but do not get me wrong, its not hurtful but found it relaxing. I rinse it off and measured it again. 13cm still. Maybe if I will use this not just once, I can have the v-shape face. Maybe more samples instead of 1, kidding Bijinsenmon. :)

Slimming Mask in Action

Steps to Use 

After that mask, I do not use anything on my face. But after bed and even after bathing, when I touched my jawline, it feels so soft and supple. It feels tighter than other parts of my face. No rashes developed or even zits.

Thanks guys of Bijinsenmon for making me a part this campaign and to try it for free. More power.

After the Slimming Mask - 13cm

sOmang Cosmetics - Ecopure Moisture Fore Essential Skin Care Gift Set

I am envious to Koreans' skin...their white complexion, the small pores and the tight feature of their face. The cold weather and healthy food plays a big role of what they have now, but they are also known to manufacture and distribute many beauty products and one of the them is sOmang Cosmetics. I only heard this product when I got here in Singapore, and thanks to Plus Big Deal, I am one of the lucky winner to get this product.

I redeemed at sOmang NEX branch, the Danahan Ecopure Fore Moisture Essential Skin Care Set. I do not use anything on my face religiously, all I know is to make it clean, and thats it. But I am frantic once there some zit on it, hehe. Once I got this set, I immediately cleansed my face with water and Abbey's facial wash, shaked the toner for the oil and and essences to be mixed, put 3-4 drops at a cotton then tapped gently on my face. Toner was absorbed after 5mins then I put on the emulsion cream, just a few drops, then leave. Oh I used this before going to bed. 

Noticed the following:

1. The smell of emulsion cream do not smell good, its is not that bad, but not enticing. The first time I used it, I really want to wash it off. 

2. This 30ml can last up to 1 month of daily use. 

3. As promised, my face looks nourished and really glowing. 

4. In continues use, zits starts to appear most specially on my forehead area. 

5. I do hope they have an english translation on every box. 

Overall... I just like it. Try it for yourself. Please visit their page. ;) This pack cost $39.90. 

SexyLook Mask

Me and my friend go gaga to masks. Hehe. Here are some things I observed about this SexyLook mask. 

1.I don't like the smell. It is like I am putting a sheet drenched in alcohol on my face

2. I had a hard time putting it on and making it secure to my face. It has an extra sheet assigned for the below of the chin that covers  half of my neck. Nice idea. Almost full eyelids were covered by the mask and and my eye bags area was hit also. No need of separate eye mask. Good point lei!

3. I need to lie on bed because it easily drops off. 

4. After peeling it off my skin is tighter. 

5. The next morning, my skin feels more supple but after taking a bath the feeling of moisturized face was already gone. :( 

We have a different skin type and our skin has different reaction with regards of the beauty products we put on. Try and see it for yourself, but for me, two sheets masks is enough. 

LEADERS InSolution Collagen Lifting Skin Renewal Mask

Mask after mask, I am fallen in love with masks. Haha! After this Coenzyme q10 Essence Mask that made all the dirt inside my face come out, I am quite hesitant to put on another one. Why? Because it may cause another batch of pimples on my forehead. I had waited almost one week for all the zits to subside. 

Second thoughts filled up my mind but I need to try to prove what the others says about Korea's #1 Mask... The Leaders InSolution - Collagen Lifting Skin Renewal Mask. Oh, thanks Cossy for supplying a sample one for me. Apologies this is so late review haha! 

Putting on, and noticed the following:

1. The mask is quite large enough to cover my full face up to my lower chin (plus point). 

2. It really sticks on my face so even it was on my face I can do some task, no wasted time lying on a bed. 

3. The mask was packed generously with its serum and applied some of it on my neck (neck needs some love also) hehe. 

4. This is the shocking part, I am not exaggerating but the black spots left by zits on my forehead was really turned into beige. Zapping the zits. I just thought maybe, on the next day after washing off, the black scars will go back. But I am wrong, the mask really enlightens its color! Very very very lovely! Clap-clap-clap!

5. The masks do gave me a supple skin. 

6. The mask is fragrantly nice. 

Thanks again! This mask is available to Watsons  "Buy 3 Get 1 FREE" promotion till 25 April & Cossy.sg
