Update for Skin care and make up routine!

Emm...it's been a long time since I did a skin care product review..I've been super busy to have time to come up with a good review of products that I've used. No doubt that I've been trying many new products for the past few months and I finally come out with a conclusion of the following items which suit my skin so much. Ok as you can see, there are a few items in the picture which I love a lot currently. My skin care routine is the same for day and night, which covers the basic skin care essentials: cleanser, toner and moisturizer. Additional skin care items are my scrub, pore strips and zits treatment (BP). Let's start reviewing the products.



L-R: Clinelle Soothing Skin Toner (RM 30+), Simple Oil Balancing Exfoliating Wash (RM19+), Oxy 5% Benzyl Peroxide, St. Ives Scrub for Blemish and Blackhead Control (RM24+), Fruit of the Earth 100% Aloe Vera Gel (RM10+) and Biore Pore Pack (RM10+ for 10 strips)

We're going to review one by one ya! First start with the cleanser. I've tried so many cleansers but it's only Simple's Oil Balancing Exfoliating Wash and Cetaphil Cleanser that makes me being loyal to them. But currently I'm not using Cetaphil Cleanser as I've left it at my hometown and also because my skin has been quite oily lately due to stress and humid weather. This cleanser is great because it doesn't contain a lot of chemicals, it does not foam and great is that there's no fragrance at all which makes it suitable for sensitive skin. I love to use this cleanser because it's moisturizing and not drying my skin at all.

Next, I apply toner. The toner I'm currently using is Clinelle's Soothing Toner. They have two toners and the other one is Purifying toner which I've tried also. The Purifying toner is suitable for oily skin like mine and I love it as well. This Soothing toner is suitable for dry and sensitive skin. I love the scent of it and it does not break me out. After finishing this toner I guess I will go for the Purifying toner..!

Before the toner dries up, I will apply my moisturizer right away. I use Aloe Vera gel as my moisturizer. Seriously, I've never knew that aloe vera gel can be so effective in moisturizing the skin. Previously I've tried many types of moisturizer and ALL of them made my skin so oily and broke out badly after some time. Haiz..I'm still on my goal of finding a perfect moisturizer for my skin. But, this aloe vera gel really impressed me. I've used it for about a month and the effects is slow. It takes some time to give effects to my skin. Now, my skin is smoother and hydrated. The pimples are healing slowing and no new break out after using this. Well occasionally there are breakouts but I don't need my spot treatment anymore. Just the gel itself it helps to calm my pimples down...Amazing! I love the gel because it suits my oily skin, it absorbs quickly into my skin...U can see some reviews on aloe vera gel on YouTube..

Additional skin care for me will include exfoliating and mask. The exfoliator I use is St. Ives scrub and it's a really good scrub. Plus, the one I'm using now is medicated scrub with 2% Salicylic Acid, to help treating spots and blackheads. Erm..I would say it's good for a scrub but to treat spots and blackheads?! NO NO! It does not help with blackheads at all...But this scrub is an apricot scrub, so it has a lot beads in it, therefore, be gentle when you use it to exfoliate ur skin ya! You don't want to strip ur skin away right? I use this scrub every 3 days to reveal softer skin and also before my mask! Em, for mask I don't review here..I've review previously and currently I'm still using the same products.

For blackhead, I'm using Biore Pore Pack. The thing is amazing. It removes my blackheads very well. Seriously! Try it urself and you will know what I mean =P. I use this every 3 days to prevent over drying my nose area. After removing the strip, I will apply my aloe vera gel to prevent my nose area from drying. Well, pore strips can make ur nose dry if you use too frequent! So follow the instruction in the box ya!


Maybelline Cherry Lip Balm, Kose Liquid Foundation, Silky Girl Long Lasting Eyeliner and Maybelline HyperSharp Liner.

Ok as for my make up essential, I must must must have eyeliner! It's a Must Have Make Up for me! =D. Eyeliner makes a huge different to the eyes. My eyes will always appear larger and more alert after applying eyeliner. I love the liquid liner by Maybelline because it really gives precision and clean line. Plus it's waterproof. The Silky Girl liner is pencil eyeliner. It's water proof also but to me it's pretty hard to draw the line. So I use this for lower lash line instead of upper lash line. The liquid foundation is my favorite. It gives food coverage. I use it to cover my blemish scars. Haha..what to do, I have not purchase concealer yet! Hehe..but this foundation works as a concealer as well... Next for lips, Maybelline Lip Balm is Ok! The color is beautiful and it hydrates my lips..My make up is simple actually..haha!


Ok..so long for today! Will update again soon!

Update on Miss Ngeaw's Visit

Miss Ngeaw is my best friend since childhood. I knew her in primary school..erm..at 9 years old. Now, we're both 22, which makes us 11 years of friendship. Even longer than my couple relationship with BF. Lol. Okay..My best friend @ Wai Leng came to KL recently for her Advance Diploma convocation and she stayed with me for about 5 days and it was really thrilling and exciting to have her with me for 5 days.



Me, getting ready for her convo


My lovely best gal friend: Wai leng [she was so thrilled over the angels on the christmas tree]

We brought her parents to Mid Valley for a short walk after the dinner and we visited The Garden's Residence Hotel. OMG. It was the best place ever: High class, classy and EXPENSIVE! But no doubt I must say that their security system is the best. Without the residence access card, you will NEVER get to use the lift at all. So, even if there was any robber or thieves, they will never get to go up to the hotel rooms unless they take the stairs. XD

Christmas tree in The Garden's Hotel

So I went to her convocation at Tar College and after that we celebrated at The Gardens and Mid Valley with her parents the same day. We went to Hokkaido Japanese Restaurant but, we both agreed that, Zanmai is better =} [Cheap and tasty *drooling*]

Her lovely parents! Miss them lots

After the dinner, we met up with Xune, my pen pal or I should say, net pal since 4 years ago. It's been a long time since we last met and it was just so coincidence he came to KL and we met up. Kinda wasted that we did not take any photo despite the long duration of separation..lol..but nvm..this is how he looks like:


The days continue with lots of lots of shopping and outing. We went out for Cosplay with her cousin and friend: Eva Lai. Check this link out for the photos COSPLAY

We also went to Farenheit for shopping and was attracted to the christmas deco there..


Here I am with the beautiful tree. I love it. There's many more pictures to upload but sorry, I'm gonna end the post here. B4 I end..the last shot for the post is this....


May our friendship last long till eternity. Yay! Love ya Leng, take good care and I shall see you again soon during CNY 2012


~End~

Love,
Peng
