Miniel SkinLab Hydraque Boost Serum comes in a simple white box with ingredients printed in English. The bottle is made of glass and the cap is from plastic. I do like the bottle pump since it is very much hygienic and easy to use too.
Paraben-Free Sulfate-Free Alcohol-Free Silicone-Free EU Allergen-Free
Main ingredient's origin-
Sodium Hyaluronate - Korea
Yeast Extract - Switzerland
This serum has very minimal ingredients. It is a very light weight serum with hydrating ingredients such as water, glycerine and hyaluronic acid. Sodium hyaluronate is a type of humectant that binds the water from the air to provide your skin with moisture. It is the gentle to every skin type.
Saccharomyces lysate is a type of fermented ingredient that is fungal safe. Saccharomyces lysate improve absorption, add beneficial nutrients, decrease irritation, and optimize cellular oxygen consumption which is good to hydrate your skin in the long run.
Miniel SkinLab Hydraque Boost Serum has a light scent of cologne which disappeared after it dries down. The serum has a bluish watery light texture that just absorbs fast into the skin leaving a soft matte area. The effect does last few hours but I do need to apply moisturiser on some drier area to keep the moisture on the skin.
Overall, Miniel SkinLab Hydraque Boost Serum is a nice hydrating light serum for combination skin that doesn’t like heavy serum to help you along with protecting your skin and moisturised skin heals better.

Today is the Elizavecca Witch Piggy Hell Pore Marine Collagen Ample for review. I think many will remember the days of the bubble up mask 6 years ago which I actually had tried. So Elizavecca came out with other products for skincare and this time it is the ampoule which uses 95% marine collagen.
The other 5% is all the ingredients after the marine collagen which one can check at the bottom of this post. It is a product focusing on anti aging.
Elizavecca Witch Piggy Hell Pore Marine Collagen Ample
All skin type
[Active ingredients] Adenosine
[Properties] Help to relieve wrinkles
[Main Ingredients] Hydrolyzed Collagen (95%) - moist and soft skin
Contains 10 kinds of fruit extract including pomegranate extract and skin moisturizing patent extract.
How to use: Apply 2-3 drops of this product to rough and dull skin, tapping lightly with fingertips to absorb.
Ingredients:
Hydrolyzed Collagen (95%), Dipropylene Glycyl Glycereth-26, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate / WP Copolymer, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Water, Capryyi Gyai Aliantoin, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Caprytydroamic Acid, Glycerin, Adenosine, Butylene Glycol, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance, Hyacinthus Orientalis (Hyadinth) Extract, Salvia Sclarea (Clany) Extract, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Extract Borago fficinalis Extract Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Plower Leaf Extract Lavandula Angustifolia Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract. Wine Extract, Vaccinium Macbcarpon (Cr anberry) Fruit Extract, Fragaria Vesca (Strawberry) leaf Extract Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Purica Granatum Fruit Extract Morus-Aiba Fruit Extract, Rubus Coreanus Fruit Extract, Vaccini um Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract, Rubus Idaeus Rasp berry) Fruit Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, Cl 16185, Ehynerylglycerin
Elizavecca Witch Piggy Hell Pore Marine Collagen Ample has a very nice packaging of beautiful design box with a nice glass bottle of product inside. They do put a lot of effort into the packaging of the package.
As for the packaging it has 95% marine collagen which is peptide from fish source. The other 5% is for all the other products which include fruit extracts, plants and some hydrating ingredients such as glycerin, adenosine. The one thing I usually find brands should take out from their skincare product is the synthetic fragrance and also synthetic colouring. I am not sure about what kind of colouring and fragrance they are using inside this product since it is usually not disclosed on the packaging.
I do like the ingredients except for the fragrance and the colouring. I have no idea what kind of source those are from-whether it is synthetic or from safe sources.
The price is pretty low for the amount of 50ml. The liquid look purplish red in the bottle but on hands, it is pinkish clear liquid. The scent is mix of woody beeries mixed together. The scent disappears once dries down. Some people might not like the weird scent though.
The liquid is watery light with a little viscosity and absorbs fast into the skin without any stickness and leaves a light soft smooth texture. It does help with hydration and reducing the fine lines on my skin after using it for a month. Not sure if it works on crow feet since I don't have them. I am hoping my skincare is going to keep those away for as long as possible๐.
Overall, Elizavecca Witch Piggy Hell Pore Marine Collagen Ample is pretty light hydrating affordable peptide product for any skin type if you don't have problem with fragrance.

Living in hot humid weather, a lot of people beginning to suspect themselves of having fungal acne.
I am also fighting fungal acne so I do know how troublesome it is.
Here is the under USD25 fungal acne skincare products and some affordable products for treating fungal acne. I use all these products myself for years.
Here is the video versuon.
Fungal acne is also known as malassezia folliculitis or pityrosporum folliculitis.
It is a type of fungi that is naturally found on the skin surfaces of many animals which include humans. With the warm and high humidity, fungi can thrive and cause 'fungal acne'. Allergy tests for this fungus are available at dermatologist or skin clinic actually. If you can't then have a look at this general guide I use to know if it is fungal or just usual acne.
-at area that the skin is more prone to trapped moisture- jaw area, armpit, hair line for those wearing tight headscarves.
- there is no redness on the area
- cluster of small papules, nodules and some turn slightly into pustules that does not disappeared.
- Under bright sunlight, you will see small bumps (no head, nothing).
- If you pick on your acne, you will either get nothing or just whitish stuff coming out. no blood and no those yellowish pus.
- to some people it is itchy.
- it spread. from 2 bumps to 3 bumps in the same area and same size.
Avoid- products that can trap moisture under your skin.
- no petroleum jelly (Vaseline)
- no oil cleanser
- no fermented products (some fermented products are okay for some people actually)
Nixoderm sulfur
Nixoderm sulfur on Amazon
This is the cheapest anti fungal products I ever use and it is available in the USA and in Malaysia. If you are looking for some super strong BHA and sulfur to kill all those mold with the least money then this is the product. You do need to use this is a very small amount unless you want to burn burn your skin. a pea size is more than enough for the whole face. Use it only once at night and make sure to apply moisturiser and sunscreen during the day.
Ingredients: Benzoic acid 6%, Salicylic Acid 2.5% and Precipated sulphur 4.6% .
By Wishtrend mandelic acid 5% prep water
By Wishtrend mandelic acid 5% prep water on Amazon
I have been using this mandelic acid toner everyday since it is 5% and it is suitable for everyday without burning my skin.
Mandelic acid is type of AHA which is a good choice for delicate and sensitive skin types like mine. It is also antibacterial and antifungal properties which is really great for fungal acne and follicular bumps. Some people use lactic acid which is also another form of AHA which also has anti fungal.
Tea tree oil
Tea tree oil on Amazon
If your skin can accept tea tree oil, then it is a great antifungal oil. However, make sure to only use one drop mix with your moisturiser before you pat it on your face. Do not ever put it directly to your skin since it can burn your skin. Some people will probably not realise about the 'burn' effect until 6months into usage.
Himalaya Neem Powder
Himalaya Neem Powder (leaves) on Amazon
This is an Aryuveda ingredients which some people said there is no scientific proof on it but I guess so is snail and other "in trend" ingredients.
Anyway, I like though since I have been using it for so many years and it is actually not that hard to get if you live in hot tropical country. You can even grow the tree yourself if you want to be really cheap.
Unlike tea tree, Neem leaves doesn't burn on your skin. It is anti fungal, anti viral, anti bacteria, sedative, anti diabetic and contraceptive. It is not recommended for children and also not for pregnant women. I ate the Himalaya capsules if I am lazy.
I also mix it with some centella powder and water to apply on my face to get rid of those pesky acne.
Some people use the neem oil but I don't really like the oil since it stink too much. People use the oil to get rid of flees on their pets and also for gardening purpose.
If you have the Neem tree, I wouldn't recommend eating since it tastes so bitter.๐
Clotrimazole-antifungal medication
Anti-fungal cream- Clotrimazole on Amazon
Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication which is for yeast infections, oral thrush, diaper rash, pityriasis versicolor, and types of ringworm including athlete's foot and jock itch. Since fungal acne is a type of fungal infection, you can use this cream. You can actually get in any pharmancy actually. It is mostly use for foot infection but you can also use on the face area. I did try it and it does help but not as fast when I was using neem but still good.
Providone iodine
Providone iodine on Amazon https://amzn.to/2SMWfiy
If you ever want to pick on that fungal acne area which I don't recommend but if have to pick on it, then disinfect your skin with providone iodine first. Also disinfect your hands first and wear a glove before picking on them.
Povidone-iodine is a broad spectrum antiseptic for topical application in the treatment and prevention of wound infection. You can use it as first aid for minor cuts, grazes, burns, abrasions and blisters.
It is an effective antiseptic that does not stop wound healing and is not as drying as rubbing alcohol. It aids healing in a range of acute and chronic wounds for even surgery so you can use this for your fungal acne area too.
When you are using all these fungal acne products, you still do need to use them for 14 days even if you still do not still anything on your skin since fungal can still be hidden inside those skin area.

Few years ago, Meme Box started as a subscription box which
introduces many people into the world of affordable Korean beauty
products. Now, Memebox has a brand of
their own which is I’m Meme which also has pretty Korean makeup.
So here is the review on the I'M MEME I'm Tic Toc
Lipstick Satin in #007 Pink Bomber. This
heart shape tic toc lipstick has been appearing all over social media in 2018 and gets
good reviews. Colour #007 Pink Bomber
does sounds like colour for Bond girl XD.
Anyway, this is not sponsored. I got it from a giveaway that
you can also join. Link is at the bottom of this post.Bottom of
Form
MEME I'm Tic Toc Lipstick Satin comes in a nice box with
everything in Korean.It has very nice
beautiful box and colour that correspond to your lipstick colour.The pen is made of sturdy plastic and the
wording on the pen doesn’t fade with usage and friction from my fingers.
You do need to click at the back of the pen for the colour
to come out.With new products, I do
need to click about 20 times before the lipstick come out a little. After that clicking about 6-8 times will do.
**Becareful to not click too many times because it cannot
reverse itself back.
As for the colour, #007 pink bomber looks nude pink with
brown under tone on their advertisement. On me, it looks like dried rose colour with matte texture which is one of the popular colour in 2018/2019 . It is very pigmented even with one swipe and has very smooth velvet texture. You can also use it as cream blusher which looks pretty on the cheek.
I do like the berry scent of the lipstick which is not noticeable once it is on my lips . As
for duration of wear, it doesn't fade if I don't eat or drink with it. It is not kissproof. It is not a tint so the colour doesn't stay after eating with oily food. Without eating oily food and if I applied 3 layers of lipstick and let it 'sit' on my lips for 30minutes, then it does still have some product left on my lips after eating food.
Overall, I'M MEME I'm Tic Toc Lipstick Satin in #007 Pink Bomber is a cute pigmented matte Korean lipstick.
