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.

E45 Dry Scalp Shampoo!

I've always been a big fan of the Oilatum treatment shampoo but I just can't seem to find it ANYWHERE, which is slightly annoying me! I've looked for it in so many supermarkets/shops but it's nowhere to be seen. I wonder whether they've just stopped producing it. Anyway, I decided to give this shampoo a try instead to see if it was any good. I would say that it does the job and reduces dandruff. I wouldn't say it completely gets rid off it but it certainly does help. Also, I like how it is perfume free. However it does have a particular smell to it, but it doesn't bother me. One thing I've also realised is that it takes more than a normal shampoo to lather up and rinse out. Apart from that, this shampoo is actually not too bad. I would say it's worth a try.

First Aid Beauty (FAB) Facial Radiance Pads!

I've just finished my second tub of FAB's facial radiance pads. Although I find the smell a little weird, I personally think that the product is quite good. It pretty much does what it says on the label. I did feel that these pads exfoliated and toned my skin. I wouldn't say that it reduced my visible pores much but I guess it did improve the clarity of my skin. However, I still had my "spotty" days, but I assume that is normal for people my age. It was my first time using a First Aid Beauty product and I was pleased overall. My skin can be quite picky when it comes to toners and it seemed to like this one, to some extent. One feature that encouraged me to get this product was that it's alcohol-free. I would definitely say that it's safe for those with sensitive skin. Also, I love how the pads are already soaked. It saves me from having to pour a toner onto a cotton pad which saves me time in the morning, and is simply great for lazy people like myself.

L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Waterproof Mascara!

It isn't often that I use up a whole tube of mascara! I actually really liked this mascara and I would definitely consider buying another one in future. It's great for those with really really short eyelashes, like myself. They don't make my eyelashes appear that much longer but I do feel that it helps open up the eye(s). Also, I like how it is waterproof. It actually doesn't smudge easily. I personally prefer using waterproof mascaras as I have really oily eyelids. My eyes tend to get teary quite often too. All in all, a good drugstore mascara. It's worth it.

June FAVOURITES!

I've been busy working lately so I haven't been blogging as much as I would have liked to. Anyhow, I've decided to stay up and do this blog post about my June favourites!

1. Favourite Drama: A Change Of Heart (好心作怪).

I'm currently watching this! I just finished watching episode 20! I'm a huge drama addict so as soon as this was out I was like "OH YEAH, I'm watching this!" How could one not when Bosco Wong and Niki Chow are the main leads?! And may I just say that Niki Chow is really pretty! I would say that she's one of the best looking actresses in Hong Kong! I really hope that this drama has a good ending and that the two, Bosco and Niki, end up together. On the other hand, so far, so good.

2. Favourite Iphone Application: WeChat.

May I just say whoever came up with this application is a genius! It makes talking so much fun...and convenient! However, I find it hilarious how everyone speaks like a robot when using this application.

3. Favourite Skincare Product: RMK cotton pads.

I've never really been into using "expensive" cotton pads as I never saw the point in wasting money on something that you'd throw away instantly. I'd usually go for the double faced cotton pads from Boots. However, I decided to go all out and buy a box of the RMK cotton pads after trying out a sample which I was given with previous purchases. I must say that they're actually pretty good and in a way, I actually do think that they're worth it.

4. Favourite Make-up Item: Benefit's Benetint. 

I'm in love with this product yet again. It's amazing for summer as I don't tend to wear as much make-up during the summer due to hayfever, which sucks. I love how this tint can be used both on the cheeks and lips which is a win win for me. I just love products which can do more than just one thing. I also love how it's natural looking and buildable too.

5. Favourite Scent: Hollister Malaia. 

This has become one of my favourite perfumes. I could smell this all day long. It's amazing. Even my mother likes it!

6. Favourite Hair Product: Head and Shoulders Apple Fresh Shampoo. 

This shampoo smells lovely! I really like how Head and Shoulders are being more creative these days and coming out with all sorts of shampoos to satisfy various needs.

7. Favourite song: 我的歌声里 (You Exist In My Song) by Wanting (曲婉婷).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0dMz8RBG7g&feature=share&list=FLy89Do8JCErrZiSJLyNMUlA

My friends and I have fallen in love with this song. I've probably listened to it around a hundred times within the past two months. It's so addictive. Love her voice.

8. Favourite Food/Fruit: Watermelon.

It's watermelon season! Yay! I love love love watermelons! I do miss being in Asia and being able to drink watermelon juice on a daily basis!

What are/were your June favourites?

When a Man Loves...

I haven't been watching many Korean dramas lately but as soon as I heard that Song Seung Hun and Shin Se Kyung were going to be in one, I knew I just had to watch it. Coincidentally, the male lead of My Princess, was paired up with the female lead of Fashion King, and vice versa. Has anyone watched Kim Tae Hee's new drama yet?

This drama is simply about a man who has had a rough childhood, and falls in love with someone who is much younger than him. A love square appears which makes everything more complicated.

One GOOD LOOKING cast! :D

Good acting!

A bit of eye candy for you all! Haha!

I must admit that there were quite a few parts of the drama that I did skip as I only wanted to watch Song Seung Hun and Shin Se Kyung. However, I must say that the second male and female lead (Yeon Woo-Jin and Chae Jung-Ahn) acted well. May I just say that Chae Jung-Ahn is really pretty! I loved her outfits and style throughout this drama...Classy and chic! Overall, the drama had an interesting story line and it was pleasant to watch. I would say that the drama had a happy ending but I would have liked to see more of Song Seung Hun and Shin Se Kyung towards the end of the drama.

Are there any Korean dramas that you would recommend?

The Body Shop Strawberry Body Polish!

I've been through several tubes of this on various occasions. I love the scent of it, as I do love my strawberries. It exfoliates the skin gently, however, I wouldn't expect drastic results if I were you. This product is gentle enough to be used more than once/twice per week in my opinion. My dear mother sneakily used mine and she liked it! She kept on mentioning how it made the back of her arms feel a lot smoother. The product's worth a try.

Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic!

This was kind of an impulse buy. I was on the look out for a new toner and the first brand I came across in Boots was Liz Earle. First of all, I love the packaging. It's simple, yet pretty. I also like how its cap can be twisted, which is unusual for a toner. The toner itself smells really pleasant and I did feel that it soothed my skin. If you're looking for a "gentle" toner, this may be the one for you.

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Luscious Long Deep Treatment!

I've finally finished using this! I bought it ages ago but I kind of neglected it. After using it for the past two months or so, I actually like it. I decided to buy the newer version of this hair treatment. One thing I like about it is that you don't have to leave it on your hair for around 10 minutes like you do with most hair treatments. 3 minutes and voila, your hair is left nice and smooth! You could leave it on for less than 3 minutes even, depending on how dry your hair is. It does the job and it's inexpensive! A win win!

Head and Shoulders Apple Fresh Shampoo!

I've been using this shampoo for the past two to three months and I love the scent! It smells sweet and fresh! I think I've been using Head and Shoulders' shampoos for quite a while now. I always come back to their brand as I do get dandruff every now and then. This one hasn't been on the market for long so yeah, if you like the smell of apples, get it!

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!
