Molton Brown Purifying Grapeseed Anti-Oxidant Shower Gel.

I've always seen Molton Brown around in shops but I never really made the effort to check out their product ranges. I received this as a gift and I was excited to try it out. I was very pleased with the product. It has a pleasant aroma, and if I had to describe it in words, I would say that this shower gel smells like men, but in a good way! I did feel a difference in the texture of my skin after using this and so, I have decided to try out more of Molton Brown's products. Unfortunately, I have tried to purchase this again but no matter where I go, I just can't seem to find this particular one. As far as I am concerned, the brand must have stopped producing this shower gel. However there are many other types of body washes which they currently sell so I would definitely recommend checking them out. It is kind of luxurious for a shower gel but it makes having a shower a pleasant experience!

Bebe Poshe Bronzer.

This is a bronzing powder from an Asian make up brand, Bebe Poshe. The brand is well known in Asia, Taiwan in particular, as the founders of the brand are famous socialites. I really wanted to try out one of their products after seeing the brand being mentioned many times on the internet.

I personally think that the product is quite well suited for Asian (Chinese) people, who have more of a yellow skin tone. However, this does not mean that you can slather it on. You've still got to be quite cautious that you don't over do the contouring! Unfortunately the camera didn't pick up the colour too well on the last picture shown above. However, you can still tell that it's a lovely bronze colour from the palette in the third picture. This bronzing powder has a slight shimmer to it which is one of the downsides to the product. Don't worry though, it isn't too obvious! Before, I was always quite worried about buying bronzers as I think that it's quite difficult trying to find one that doesn't make you look orange or "muddy." I wasn't as worried about purchasing this one because after all, the brand is from Asia, so naturally, it should be a product that is aimed towards the Asian/Chinese market in general. I personally don't mind using this bronzer but I wouldn't rate it as the best one out there.

Have you tried any Bebe Poshe products?

Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion.

Why is it that I always fall ill during the busiest periods of my life? Why? I really do have the world's worst immune system...ever. It's a sad story.

Anyway...let's get back to the topic...

Recently I've been using this body lotion. I have never used any of Aveeno's products until now. For its price, I'm quite impressed. I do feel that it has improved the texture of my skin and I like how it isn't strongly fragranced like many other body creams/lotions. It states that it is fragrance free but there is still a slight fragrance, but don't worry, you'll barely notice it! It definitely keeps the skin moisturised and overall is a good, affordable product.

It can be purchased here!

RMK Ingenious Gel Eye liner (01 Black).

This was kind of an impulse buy. I always look forward to trying RMK's products. This very black gel eyeliner gives a fairly easy and smooth application. It has a lovely texture compared to some of the gel eyeliners I have previously tried.

Gel eyeliners are quite hard to work with initially, just like any other form of eyeliner. Even until today, I'm still no pro when it comes to drawing any sort of line/flick on my eyelids! They say practice makes perfect...I guess they meant A LOT of practice.

I have used this eyeliner a reasonable amount of times and I have noticed that it doesn't seem to stay that well in place, especially if I apply it on my waterline. If I'm careful and my make up hasn't been on my face for too long, I can get the product to stay on my eyelid pretty well but it smudges a lot in the corners of my eyes and on my lower lash line if I choose to apply any excess around the waterline which is very annoying. I personally have very oily eyelids and my eyes can be quite "teary" at times (especially during summer time) so this may be one of the reasons why I have problems with the product. It just isn't waterproof/smudge proof enough for me to like it. I enjoy using RMK's products and have done for many years, but this was sadly a let down for me. Although its staying power isn't great on my skin, it's definitely better than some of the eyeliners I've tried in the past!

It can be purchased here! - Selfridges.com - Price: £23.

L'Oreal Paris Renewal Lash Serum.

Yes, I am the typical Chinese girl with REALLY short eyelashes! It's so annoying because no matter what mascara I use, my eyelashes still remain short and straight!

I bought this product a long time ago when I was shopping in Malaysia but never really did a review on it so I thought why not do one today! It is a lot more affordable compared to a lot of other eyelash enhancing serums than I have currently seen in drugstores.

When I first used the product, I was really excited to see what kind of results I would get! Unfortunately, my eyelashes have not grown. Whilst using this product, I did however feel that my eyelashes were "stronger" but I felt that more eyelashes were falling out than usual. I'm not quite sure whether that was part of the renewal process but I got worried so I soon stopped using the serum.

I wouldn't say that I regret buying L'Oreal's renewal lash serum as I'm always looking forward to trying new things. However, it's one of those products that you sometimes forget to use and end up putting aside. You're supposed to use such items continuously but I just got way too lazy! I ended up using it whenever I remembered to or felt like doing so!

Review: Creme de La Mer - The Tonic!

Soooo...I decided to go all out and treat my skin to some Creme de La Mer toner! The toner smells lovely and is gentle on the skin! The bottle lasted me for around two months and during this period, I noticed that my skin felt softer than usual. I've always had a problem with choosing toners as there are so many on the market and a lot of them seem to contain a lot of alcohol, which my skin does not like.

The packaging is kept nice and simple here, but recently the brand has changed the packaging of quite a few of its products (it looks better)!

I would say that this toner is suitable for most skin types. If you have really oily skin, I would suggest using the oil absorbing tonic instead as the tonic tends to be more moisturising and therefore, it might be too much for those who have very oily skin. However, you could try using a lighter moisturiser if you want to use the tonic (that is if you have oily skin).

This toner is definitely a good product, however, do not expect it to control those breakouts. It simply tones the skin and gives it a healthy glow.

My skin seemed to like the tonic and it is definitely a product I would consider repurchasing. The only downside to it is its high price tag! I guess looking after your skin comes at a high cost!

RMK Body Cream!

Yes, it's limited edition so it won't be on sale anymore. However, I would still like to review the product as it's from one of my favourite skincare brands, RMK. Although the packaging looks cute, I think it could have been made to look a little more luxurious. However, that is just my personal opinion. The product itself is good as it is very moisturising. It has a lovely citrus (lemon) scent however, the scent does not last forever. All in all, it did what it was supposed to do so I don't really have anything bad to say about the product! RMK should try introducing a full range of body products rather than having the odd launch every now and then!

Steam Eye Mask Review!

I was given two sachets as a souvenir from Hong Kong. I must say that I was impressed. They definitely weren't your average eye mask. They gave off a wonderful aroma and they heated up when in use! I also like how they're disposable! I remember using mine when I had a migraine and it definitely helped ease the pain while I tried to sleep. I also used it when I was on a trip to help me sleep (I usually have a problem sleeping away from home) and it definitely proved to be useful! I would definitely consider repurchasing! The only bad thing is that it's another Asian product so I can only get hold of it online which is just a little annoying! I saw them on sale in London but the shop that I went to were charging around £13 or more for one box and they can usually be bought for less than £6! Yes, huge difference!

Pore Care Pack Review!

I had never seen or heard of this product until a relative of mine gave it to me. I was personally quite impressed. Although it didn't get rid off all my blackheads like all other pore strips that I have tried in the past, it did appear to make a difference. These pore strips are definitely better than some of the ones I have previously tried. According to the packaging, it's made of natural charcoal too, which is a bonus! I would like to try this product again but sadly, it's an Asian beauty product so I'm pretty sure I would have difficulty trying to repurchase!

St. Ives Apricot Body Scrub Review!

I used to use the facial scrub so I thought I'd try out the body scrub. I have oily/combination skin so I break out a lot (yes, both face and body). This St. Ives apricot scrub does give you that "deep cleanse" feel and to some extent it helped calm down any blemishes. Obviously, it didn't get rid off all those bumps but I wasn't expecting it to. It has a pleasant scent but one thing I did not like was that it was quite hard to rinse off in the shower, compared to other body scrubs that I have previously used. It tends to "stick" to the skin. All in all, for a drugstore brand, this scrub isn't bad at all. I've personally had some good experiences with this brand.

Biore Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser!

This definitely felt cool on the skin! It states that it fights blemishes...I would say that it does to some extent. It's an affordable facial cleanser however, I felt that it was slightly harsh for my skin as I would get dry patches on my face. I like how it has a pump unlike many facial cleansers that I have been using recently. I've tried other Biore products before so I thought I'd give this one a try. Unfortunately I didn't finish using it as I didn't really think that my skin liked it enough for me to continue using it. Anyhow, I guess it's worth the try if you're looking for something that may fight all them blemishes away! After all, everyone reacts differently to different products.

Soap and Glory: Hand Food!

I've finally had the chance to try the famous "hand food" from Soap and Glory. I love the scent! It's so sweet! However it might be too perfumed for some. This hand cream definitely does the job and doesn't feel too greasy on the skin. It's an affordable hand cream which is great and leaves your hands feeling soft.

I stopped using it for a while as I was trying a different hand cream. When I tried to use it again recently, I noticed that it had turned into a watery consistency. I'm not quite sure why as I haven't had it for that long. I ended up having to throw it away but I had used most of it so it was fine. That was the only downside of this product for me.

Elemis Balancing Lavender Toner!

OH MY OH MY! It's been quite a long time since I last updated my blog! I've been so busy with uni and work that I just simply don't have the time. It's going to be one hectic year for me at uni...but hopefully things will turn out right...

Anyway, getting back to the topic...

This was kind of an impulse buy! I needed a toner at the time and I stumbled across this one! I remember going to a spa with my friend and we saw many Elemis products, so I thought I'd give their brand a try. According to the saleswoman, this is one of their best-selling products.

This toner has lasted me for a good few months. I was so surprised at how long it lasted because I usually go through toners really quick! It has a nozzle on the bottle so maybe that's the reason... When I first started using the toner I was really unsure about it. To be honest, I disliked the scent. Normally, I don't mind lavender but for some reason, this product doesn't smell like lavender to me. It has a really strong herbal scent, which I dislike. My skin seems to be quite picky when it comes to toners and doesn't seem to react well with many. I was told by the sales assistant that this toner is suitable for individuals with combination skin, like myself. I do think that Elemis' balancing lavender toner is a decent product as it helped balance the oiliness of my skin to some extent. I would consider purchasing it again but the smell was a little off-putting. However, the scent is something you could get used to.

Alpha-H Liquid Gold!

After seeing Youtubers rave about this particular product, I thought it was time to get my hands on one! It was my first time using an Alpha-H product, and I was kind of worried seeing as it has "glycolic acid" in it. I must admit, the word "acid" freaked me out at first. However I did a bit of research online and discovered that it actually comes from sugar cane. Also, many say that it makes your skin look better from the very first use so I was extremely tempted to give it a try. Does it live up to the hype? I would say so. This is a skin treatment that you would use on alternate nights. Whenever I used it, I would be extremely excited to see what my skin would like in the morning. It does make your skin look good in the morning, however, I wasn't exactly...WOW-ed. Whilst using this, I realised that I wasn't breaking out as much too. I'm not actually sure whether it was this particular product that was keeping the spots at bay or whether it was other stuff. It is more on the pricey side but personally I would say that it is worth it and it does last for a bit. All in all, a good product.

Kleenex Shine Absorbing Sheets (Powder free)!

Hey everyone!
Exams are over so yeah, lots of time for blogging now...kind of!

I've finally finished using the Kleenex shine absorbing sheets (oil blotting paper), which are powder free. Normally I like to use the Clean and Clear oil blotting sheets but seeing as I go through a million boxes of Kleenex tissues every year, I thought I'd give this new "beauty" product of theirs a go! I was actually quite happy with my purchase! They certainly do get rid off any shine on the face and are powder free, which is an important factor for me! I hate it when you blot your face with blotting paper and it leaves your skin with weirdly coloured powder residue! Another good thing about these Kleenex blotting sheets is that it's easy to get hold of in the UK! We don't have the Clean and Clear oil blotting sheets in the UK, and so, I tend to have to stock up whenever I go to Asia, or order online.

Please let me know what kind of blog posts you would like to see! :D

Ciao!

Product Of The Day: St Ella Total Solution Eye Contour Cream!

☆☆☆

This is probably the first eye cream that I have ever used up in my entire life! I was determined to finish it so that I could see whether it really did help with my panda eyes. First of all, it's light on the skin, which is a bonus. It absorbs quickly into the skin. To be honest, I don't use my eye cream every morning and every night. I have my lazy days when I either can't be bothered or I completely forget. However, I have tried to be good and use an eye cream on a frequent basis. I bought this eye cream when I was on holiday last year. I found that Sonia Sui, who is a famous Taiwanese actress and model, does commercials for this brand so that was one selling point for me. After using the whole tube, I didn't really see how it reduced my dark circles. However, I remember my cousin telling me a week after using this product that my eyes did look better. Therefore, I would not say that it's a bad product. I guess I was simply expecting more.

Which eye creams have you tried?

Product Of The Day: Chanel Chance Eau Tendre.

★★★★

I've finally used up this 100ml of good stuff! I love the scent! It's feminine but not too overpowering so guys may like this scent on their other halves. It is pricey as it is a Chanel product after all, but it smells good! However, there is a downside. It does not seem to last long so I would always have to top up during the day. Personally, I think this makes a great summer perfume! I used it for the entire summer last year!

Product Of The Day: RMK Skintuner EX Light.

This is a good quality moisturiser and it is made of natural ingredients which is always a bonus. It keeps the skin moisturised even though it's light. There is an extra moist version of this RMK moisturiser but my skin tends to be more on the oily side so I was recommended this one. It's good for moisture but do not expect anything more as it is not made to get rid off any past spot marks or reduce the number of breakouts etc. It's main purpose is simply to keep the skin nice and moisturised.

Product Of The Day: Dove Beauty Finish Deodorant.

It's been a while since I last made an effort to do a review so thought I'd do one today. My mum discovered this product a while back and she was telling me how good it was. Normally, a roll-on deodorant just like this one doesn't really work for me as I sweat a lot. For some reason I feel smelly regardless of what roll-on deodorant I use. However, this one actually surprised me as I felt that it was doing what it was meant to do. I've seen in supermarkets that Dove have launched other scents under this line but I don't think they have the "beauty finish" which this one is supposed to have. I am now willing to try out other roll-on deodorants after using this one, instead of my usual crystal rock deodorant. It states on the bottle that it lasts 48 hours but it didn't on me unfortunately. However, I think that it's quite difficult for a deodorant to last that long, especially when you're like me and you literally sweat all the time. All in all, I liked this Dove deodorant and I would consider repurchasing in the future.

Product Of The Day: RMK Recovery Gel.

Rating: ★★★★

I like how it has microbeads in this treatment. It seems like your skin is actually absorbing everything if you get what I mean. I also like the scent as it smells really fresh and fruity, yet not too overpowering. I always go back to this night treatment every now and then so god knows how many tubs I've gone through. Personally, I think it's worth a try. I love RMK but I'm honestly not being bias or anything. Haha. I think it definitely helps with anti-roughness! Also, it absorbs quickly which is a bonus!
