REVIEW ON BY WISHTREND MANDELIC ACID 5% SKIN PREP WATER

Hi Beautiful,

I have acne prone skin and have been dealing with acne for more than 15 years ago so I am in for any skincare products to get rid of acne. My acne is not as bad as before but then as usual, my skin is fickle and it can't never be 100% at its best all the time.  Besides, now that I am after 30 years old,  I had to add in 'wrinkles and aging' as my skin concern.

So recently I have been trying By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water and it has been a month since I tried it so here is a review on it.  If you only want to get a product for your acne prone skin from Wishtrend, I would highly recommend this cause I am waiting for sale to stock up on this product myself.

The bottle is plastic so do not leave it under the sun or inside the car for it to melt.  I can actually see the amount of product inside the bottle which is great. I actually use cotton pad for this toner because I just like to wipe my face off all those death cells.  The opening is great to get enough products without spilling it out which is nice.

By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water does not have any smell to it but if you still want a smell, it is like very faint plastic scent.  It is very watery and absorb fast into the skin.  There is a tart feeling which is a characteristic of acid.

If you are like me, (I have acne prone skin forever) then you might understand that I am more interest in product that gives me fast result without those irritation.  I have been trying many BHA and AHA skincare products in the past if you do check out my blog history.

Mandelic acid is actually extracted from bitter almond. So it is not really for those with nut allergic or allergic to almond.  Mandelic acid is one of the many types of AHA.  For examples, glycolic acid, acetic acid (TCA), lactic acid, malic acid, citric acid etc.  The strongest AHA that is able to penetrate the skin deeper is glycolic.  It can work faster but also cause a lot of irritation so not everyone can use it.  When your skin is red and raw from the over exfoliation, your skin actually does not heal well and it reject majority of the products that you normally can use on daily basis. In some people the skin retaliate by breaking out more.  So, strong AHAs are usually only done as peel in skin clinic where there is professional to do it in a sterile environment. Of course that comes with a price to pay and your skin peeling for a week.

For skincare products at home, mandelic acid is a great AHA because it is the weakest AHAs among all but has the ability to exfoliate the skin, anti-inflammatory and also antibacterial.  However, 20% of mandelic acid can be too much for everyday use so mandelic acid around 5% to 10% is ideal for most acne prone skin type.

By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water has about 5% mandelic acid which is gentle actually.  Besides, the amount of mandelic acid is suspended in water which makes the penetration not too deep into the skin.  Other ingredients are added for hydration, soothing, retain moisture and to brighten the skin.  Mandelic acid with just water is going to  be very drying so ingredients such as Beta-Glucan, Panthenol, Licorice Root Extract, Sweet Almond Fruit Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Houttuynia Cordata Extract, Sorbitol, Arginine (amino acid), and Hydrolyzed Collagen.

The other ingredients (Dimethyl Sulfone, Chlorphenesin, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Ethylhexylglycerin) are mostly preservative and to control the texture of the product.  There is a interesting ingredient in this which is Sodium Citrate which is use to increase the pH of the product. I think this is the reason that this product pH is at 4-5 which is the best for AHA to work.

If you are into the current trend of low pH thing, then you would know that products should of be certain pH for something to work bla bla bla ... .  I have a post HERE talking about that if you are interested on it.  However, too low and your skin is going to burn.  Acid that has pH more than 7 is useless.

By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water makes the skin smooth, brighten the skin, exfoliate the skin for other skincare products to get absorbed better, gentle, heal the acne scars, makes the pores cleaner and keep the skin clearer.  If you have those underground acne, it does bring the acne up to the surface faster.  It does sting for a few seconds if you have open wound so do not pick on your acne.

I would recommend to use it only at night and few times in a week. Also avoid using other BHA, AHA or retinol when you are using this Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water since you can easily over exfoliate and make your face red and breakout more.  If your skin can tolerate stronger stuff, you can add a weaker BHA with it. If you want to use retinol or those strong tretinoin, avoid using it on the same day.

I use this toner four times a week with my other calming and gentle skincare products.  it does not make my acne worse or cause more acne. On the first three days, I could feel that my skin becomes smoother.  The acne and pimples I have become gradually smaller and get rid of the red acne marks faster.
Currently, I don't own or use any strong actives since I prefer gentle approach towards treating acne.  This toner won't be able to make dented or 'holes' type of scars disappeared from the skin if that is what you think to get for.

Overall, By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water is a great gentle AHA toner for treating acne and skin texture issues.  If you have dry sensitive skin, it is best to use it twice a week and with a lot of calming moisturising products.  For combination skin like me, I find it okay to use everyday if you do not use any other strong actives. Also use sunscreen when using this products cause you do not want to undo everything.

REVIEW ON SWANICOCO A.C CONTROL SKIN TONER

Swanicoco is a natural Korean brand that is popular in Korea itself for their natural effectiveness.  Their products contains USDA and Ecocert approved ingredients, patented raw component and nano fermented formulations and using natural extracts .  Swanicoco puts a lot of effort into testing their products before placing it in the hands of their customers.

If you check out the Naver, then you will notice that Swanicoco is a wonderful Korean brand that received a lot of good reviews from Korean beauty enthusiasts.

Honestly, it is a great brand that produce good quality products with a lot of research put into it.  I have been trying out Swanicoco A.C control care skin toner for more than a month so here is the review on Swanicoco A.C control care skin toner which I use in conjunction with Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence.

Swanicoco A. C control care

Contains USDA and Ecocert approved ingredients to soothes skin from external stimuli. Mild care for teenager skin, red skin, problematic skin that are exposed to external stimuli.


Swanicoco A.C control care skin toner comes in a heavy transparent glass bottle and a plastic cap cover.  The liquid has yellowish tint to it. It doesn't smell like tea tree but more of herbal hanbang kind of smell which I really enjoy.  It is watery and absorb really fast into my skin with no residue.

There are many ingredients to soothe and treat the acne problem without being harsh.  The ingredient is similar with the A.C essence and the top ingredients are tea tree leaf water and zinc sulfate.  Zinc Sulfate is use to treat deficiency of zinc which is normally presented in acne prone skin. Zinc helps to heal the skin faster so that the acne does not leave scars.  There are many other plants extract that are use for calming, healing and hydration of acne prone skin.  However, still do check the ingredients that I provide above since some people may be allergic to one of the ingredients.

My skin always love zinc and tea tree so products with these two usually works well with my skin.

Swanicoco A.C control care skin toner does make my T zone less oily after using it for more than a month without dryness on my other skin area.  It doesn't clog my pores no matter the amount I use which is really great since it helps to keep my skin clear.  I have checked the pH with my pH paper and it turns out that the PH is around 5 to 6 which is really great for acne prone skin as it keeps the skin slightly acidic without the harshness of actives.

Swanicoco A.C control care skin toner does hydrate my skin and make my pores smaller.  Maybe it is the hydration of the toner that keeps my skin but whatever it is, it is sure a good thing. I just can't stop touching it because it look so smooth.  I did try to go without it for 3 days and my skin was back to looking redder and bigger pores so I am sure so it is this toner that makes my pores look smaller.  Despite it contains tea tree water as the first ingredients, it never even once burn my skin.

I use this toner along with Swanicoco A.C Control emulsion and also the A.C Control essence.

Overall, I would recommend Swanicoco A.C control care skin toner for someone who just started their skincare journey, has light to moderate acne problem, combination or oily skin type, no problem with any of the listed ingredients, works well with the top ingredients (tea tree and zinc), gentle mild skincare products and cruelty free products.

I got Cosrx Centella Water Alcohol Free Toner in Wishtrend Cosrx Silky Skin texture package so here is my take on it😣

Cosrx Centella Water Alcohol Free Toner is free from paraben, artificial colour and claims to restore, repair and rejuvenate the skin. The ingredient list is short&doesn't contain alcohol.  I have been using this product as toner, in form of mist, mix it with my powdered mask and as makeup fixer for more than a month.

Honestly, I didn't see any different in lessening my skin redness, helping to repair my skin or getting rid of my acne.  I think Cosrx Centella Water Alcohol Free Toner doesn't do much for my skin😑 .

The first ingredient is mineral water and the second ingredient is Centella Asiatica Leaf Water which is 10% and that amount of ingredients are not high enough to make visible different especially with acne prone skin like mine.  Centella Asiatica is already a weak ingredient so having it in form of water and dilute it with more water makes it only slightly better than sky juice?😏

The toner comes form of plastic spray bottle which I do like but since it is mineral water so the toner shoot out in forms of water droplets as well.  One good thing is that it doesn't cause clog pores or acne but it doesn't do much also😑 .

Overall,  Cosrx Centella Water Alcohol Free Toner is for those that want a non irritating spray form of water, loyal number one fan of Cosrx,  having inseparable relationship Mr. Water ground and love Centella Asiatica water 😄 .

REVIEW ON DR. LEWINN'S ESSENTIALS PURIFYING TONER


Looking for Dermatologist grade products without breaking your bank?
How about read into my review about Dr.Lewinn's Essentials Purifying Toner here? I have been using it for over 3 weeks and here is my review on this.

I have reviewed Dr.Lewinn's Essentials 4 Fusion Cleansing oil (love) which I used along with this toner .

Here is a little about Dr.Lewinn's skincare products.

Founded in 1989 based on the private formulations of Dr. Laurence LeWinn, a world-renown plastic surgeon to the Hollywood stars, Dr. Lewinn’s is the best-selling premium skincare brand in Australian pharmacies, it was voted the No.1 Australian premium skincare brand for 11 years running by the Michael Edwards Cosmetic & Perfume Survey.

Dr. Lewinn's has been offering real, effective results for specific skin aging concerns to Australians for more than 25 years, and is now available in Malaysia for the first time.

Dr.Lewinn's Essentials Purifying Toner
An alcohol-free, aloe-based toner that removes residue makeup and oils and assists in refining pores, leaving skin soft, smooth and refreshed.

Minimises Pores & Excess Oil. Contains Glycolic Acid.
Recommended for combination skin.

Directions:
Apply to thoroughly cleansed face and neck using a cotton pad. Pay special attention to the T-zone area. Pat dry. Use morning and night

Ingredients:
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Propylene Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Sorbic Acid, Glycolic Acid, RetinylPalmitate (Vit. A), Parfum (Benzoyl Benzoate, Citronellol, Coumarin, Limonene, Geraniol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Linalool), CI 16035.

Dr.Lewinn's Essentials Purifying Toner has great nice ingredients that include vitamin A, AHA. It uses Sorbic, Acid Phenoxyethanolas and  Propylene Glycol as preservative .  Caprylyl Glycol is a skin conditioning agent.  The fragrance blends are from plants.  CI 16035 is actually the red colouring in the bottle.

It is a dermatologist grade toner so there isn't any fragrance so the smell is a blend of all the ingredients. It smells faintly of dried jasmine flower. It disappeared fast once it dried so no worries.

Dr.Lewinn's Essentials Purifying Toner is clear pink watery liquid. It does absorb into my skin fast and my other skincare does feel easier to apply.  Since the first ingredient is aloe vera, the toner is really gentle and I do not experienced overexfoliation during my usage of this toner.  It doesn't immediately make my skin amazing but it does help with keeping my skin hydrated with better skin texture. The PH is around 5-6 which slightly acidic so I think sensitive skin can use this too.

You do need to use it with other products to get better results in terms of exfoliation or getting rid of rough skin texture.

Overall, Dr.Lewinn's Essentials Purifying Toner is an aloe vera based hydrating toner medical grade toner for combination skin, looking for dermatologist products for anti ageing and gentle on the skin.

Hi,

This hot internet sensation, COSRX brand has even been mentioned in Korean beauty shows such as Get it Beauty and is highly raved by many beauty youtubers and bloggers😎.

I know, I know that my review COSRX One step Pimple Clear Pad is probably just going to be buried under all the millions of review out there😅.

Still, if you are interested in what I think of this hyped up brand,  here is the review of the COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad that promised clear skin.  I got it from the Wishtrend Cosrx Silky Skin texture package.

COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad is the star product of COSRX.  Some even said it get rid of acne overnight but of course you aren't getting that kind of rave from me 😊.

So, here is what I think.  The packages does look like the dupe of Stridex but since I haven't tried Stridex before so I have no idea how it compares to Stridex. Anyhow, here is what I think of this product after using it for 3 weeks.

The jar is sure way bigger than cotton pads probably to make it easier to take out the products. It would be better if there is a tweezer to take the product out than rather with just plain fingers since it can contaminate the products😵.

COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad comes with 70 sheets of cotton pads. The cotton pads has an embossed side and a soft side (non embossed) side.  Both of the side comes with different features

 Embossed side-  Exfoliates / Regulates sebum production / Removes impurities
Smooth side-  Hydrates / Promotes smoother skin / Improves facial skin texture

Personally I feel both of them are the same except that the embossed side exfoliate the skin better as I can see some dirt on that side.  Not sure about the smooth side claiming to hydrates my skin since I think the ingredients those pads soaked in is the same😶.

COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad smells of light orange peel which is one of the ingredients inside the solution soaked so no added fragrance in there.  As for the ingredients the first ingredients is the Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Water which provides the cleansing, regulates sebum, reduces inflammation of acne prone skin.  Salix Alba Willow Water is actually very gentle so for people who are used to strong AHA, BHA, peels or other acne products will not feel or see any difference in using this product😎.

Other ingredients that helps to calm down acne is Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil.  There is Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Panthenol which is hydrating to the skin so it is also suitable for dry skin type.

There is Allantoin present which is an ingredients that is part of anti aging products and thus using this products will help condition the skin to be 'younger'😍.

As for the effect on my skin, I have actually finish the whole jar of Cosrx One Step Pimple Clear Pad and I think it is gentle.  It is not really making my acne disappeared overnight(I have really stubborn acne skin ) but it does reduce the severity of my acne and make the pimples come to a head faster.  I do need to combine this Cosrx Pimple Clear Pad with other products. Personally I use it as toner to clean my skin and prepare my skin for other skincare products.

Overall, COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad is a gentle exfoliation products for skin types that is dull, acne prone, dry and have never tried other strong prescription acne products.  However, it is best not to scrub the skin too hard with the pads as frequent hard friction can cause sensitivity and redness.

If you are already trying prescription products such as tretinoin and loving those, I think you will probably just find this 'meh' (meaning nothing great) or it won't do a thing on your skin.

REVIEW ON FIRST COSMETIC MULBIT MEDIST (Vitamin Mist)

Hi beautifuls,

This month, I received First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) from BNT News.

Do you feel the same as I am? I fell for gimmicky products that promises to do something amazing for the skin  but at the same questioned if it will do something. I am a skeptical person but at the same time just do not want to miss something to make my skin..better?  Who don't right?

So here is the First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) review.

 Here is the ingredient lists.

First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist)
 The box containing the products are really pretty and beautiful.  Inside, there are two bottles. One is the princess looking plastic bottle containing the capsule which look like medicine pills to me.
Another, bottle is a glass bottle to use as mist.

There are four colours that represent different purposes so think of as vitamin water for the face.

Green: Anti-wrinkle
Blue: Skin reproduction
Yellow: Whitening

The ingredients sure do interesting with ingredients such as trehalose, niacinamide, biotin, hydrolyzed collagen, adenosine, strawberry, lemon, lavender, camellia sinenis , aloe vera, rosemary and citric acid.

I do like the glass bottle since I do like mist which is easy to use.  I use it as mist or with compressed sheet mask depending on my skin condition of the day.  It does stain if the water landed on things with whitish stuff so be careful.  Also make sure to wash the hands if you have any contact with the mist as I do feel like I have layer of soda powder on my hands.

Put warm water into the glass about 2/3 and two capsules and wait for the capsules to just melt.  I do like the satisfaction of seeing the capsules melted colouring the water.  There is some sort of fragrance-the kind of fragrance you get with perfume.  I think artificial smell especially in a skincare products is no longer a popular factor since it does not have any effect in making the products more effective.  Besides, many people find artificial fragrant irritating.  There are some sort of colouring in the capsules.(No idea if the colouring is natural coloring)

The Yellow (Whitening) does provide immediate brightening effect on the skin which lasted a few hours.  I think it does work best before using makeup on the face or as mist to set up the makeup.

The Green: (Anti-wrinkle) is just normal hydration to me since I don't get to use it long enough to see much effect.

The Blue: (Skin reproduction): It hydrates my skin and slight brightening.

I use the Pink: (Skin condition management) I use this capsule the most to see if it helps my acne prone skin.  It helps to calm my skin but not sure if it does anything in clearing my breakouts.

I also tried using them with compressed mask to test the effect and I think it is mostly hydration to me. I can't finish the bottle of the mist alone in a day and keeping it next day does decrease the effect compare to using it immediately after the capsules melted off.

I am not sure if there are much effect at all since I am not used to the strong artificial fragrance and the skin on my face tends to get really irritated from prolong use of fragrance so I guess that is the reason that I am not seeing much effect from using the First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist).

Overall, First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) is a fun Princess looking mist which has interesting concept. It think the product will have better effect on someone that doesn't have problem with fragrance.  Also normal skin type will find the vitamin mist capsules easy to use and cute at that.
