Mentholatum Acnes and other stuffs



0 comments
*On writing this post, i 'm competing who will be the latest to arrive for a gathering later.(^_^;) *
*I wanted to separate the posts but i'm lazy to write another. sorry for this long post m(_ _)m *


Oily skin, Acnes are all so common in our sunny island and we are never acne-free (maybe for me). To say the truth, i don't have 1 skincare regime, I rotate all the stuffs i have, therefore, i have too many unfinished skincare products and here is another set to add on.

I started to use this set of Mentholatum Acnes facial wash and facial gel when i have some breakouts last week. Might be due to stress or maybe some makeup which i'm still not sure yet.




Acnes Creamy Face Wash













 "Removes Excess sebum and keeps your skin soft & moist. mild and non-irritating creamy wash for daily use to effectively prevent pimples.


My Review
I kind of like this creamy wash as i love the feeling of touching my face after using it. My skin feel soft and refreshed. It foams well and easy to clean off.  I try to avoid to use it too often as i find it quite harsh for my combi-dry skin. My skin get oily only when i'm outside. and I don't like the scent of this facial wash though.











Sealing Gel




This is a off-white gel which helps to treat acnes. It feels sticky when first applied but get better after a while. Instead of using on the whole face, i use it on my areas where there are pimples and it works. Similar to the creamy wash, i don't really like the scent.








Overall, I think that it is a bit strong/harsh on my face but does well on oily skin. I would definitely prefer the sealing gel as it works for my pimples. If you would like to try, thesamplestore is giving away the free acnes samples. You may view below for the link.

Skinfood Rice Mask Review



0 comments


Today review is gonna be on Skinfood Rice Mask. Actually i have bought this quite some time ago but don't bear to use it yet. Since my BB was sleeping soundly and i didn't have anything to do, i took out a pail, sponge and start masking his face with it!






its a white watery, creamy texture with some bits inside (i guess should be rice? ). It smells nice, not too strong. Then i took out my mask brush and start applying on my BB face... It is easy too apply, not too thick too! On closer look you can even see the residue...



(my face)

I hate it when hair starts coming and stick with my mask. Overall, the mask is hydrating! My face feels much cleaner after mask-ing and softer!

Its going to be on my HG item! :) I generally love this more than my Skinfood cucumber mask :D

[Review] Vitamin E Moisture Cream



0 comments
If you had been to The Body Shop , one of the highlights there that might have caught your eyes is the uber pretty section of Vitamin E series. Packaged in a soft pink packaging with the main highlight of hydrating & anti-aging effect is very popular. And it is always in their "Best Sellers" category.


Vitamin E Moisture Cream



Best if you want to:

Protect, soften and moisturize your skin with our best-selling, easily-absorbed, moisture cream that has the lightness of a lotion.

How it works:

  • Vitamin E, a naturally powerful antioxidant, conditions and nourishes skin while helping to protect it against premature aging and harsh environmental elements.
  • Sorbitol, a naturally occurring ingredient in many fruits, helps skin to retain moisture.
  • Lanolin is one of nature’s richest moisturizers and is readily absorbed to provide additional protection to skin.
This was one of my very first purchase in The body shop. I was attracted to the nice packaging and the powdery like smell which is very very nice. The texture of the cream isn't very sticky, but instead, watery. It dries up on my face fast and without any stickiness.




For me, sometimes besides using on face, i use on my hands, arms for moisturizing. it really feel moisturized too! If you have the extra cash, feel free to check it out ;)
