NEWS: MELVITA' JUNE 15 NEW LAUNCH L’OR ROSE REFINING SERUM


Women of all ages concern about having cellulite on their skin can now walk down the street in their favourite shorts, confidently flaunting it in the sexiest way possible.





Cellulite often known as an ‘orange peel,’ or ‘dimpling, is a skin transformation often appear on the thighs, buttocks and sometimes lower abdomen. Cellulite appears when the structures of the fat cells begin to weaken and a large cell specialized in the storage of fats in the upper layers of fatty tissue increase in size due to excess lipid storage. As they are grouped together in cluster form, they push skin upwards making cellulite.

On RĂ©union Island, Leading French organic skincare brand, Melvita discovered pure, pink gold… Aroeira, or Schinus terebinthifolius, is an ingredient that is so renowned, it has been given the nickname «Pink Gold». The small berries of this plant boast precious skincare benefits.

REVIEW ON C20(OST) PURE VITAMIN 21.5 ADVANCED SERUM

Hi Beauties,


Korean cosmetics has stormed the world with their advanced technologies and focusing on achieving flawless healthy skin with skincare products.  Korean brands has even come up with dupes that are on par with department brands and it has quickly became a staple in many women's' skincare routines.

Vitamin C is already a well known ingredient for brightening and strengthening the skin's abilities to build collagen.  This is a trend that has stayed and remain favourites by many.  Even my friends have been telling me how amazing Vitamin C has worked on their skin.

This brand used to be called OST but it has changed the name to C20.  Personally, I was very excited when I got to try C20(OST) Pure Vitamin C21.5 Advanced Serum.

Name are changed to Wishtrend.

So, here is my opinion on this fame product.




Pure Vitamin C21.5 Advanced Serum.

+ 21.5% of Pure Vitamin C (6450ppm) in one bottle.
+ No artificial ingredients or irritants.
+ Improved absorption for
intense hydration.
+ Non-sticky formula.

The dropper and the vitamin bottle is separated for safety during shipping.  Just change into the dropper when open the product.

The dark bottle is also to keep the products inside safe from sun ray. Vitamin C is easily destroyed by sunlight so keep it away from direct sunlight and heat.

I can hear the sound of gases when I opened the bottle. It is like opening a bottle of champagne.

There differences of the two versions are:

- the new one removed alcohol which is quite high in the original version
-the old version is sticky and most people doesn't like it
-the old version has glucose which a form of sugar
-old version is cheaper in term of price
-the new one do not have any pore clogging or any irritants


Recommend:
Pure Vitamin C21.5 Advanced Serum is recommended for :
Brighter skin & whitening.
Skin pigmentation and blemishes.
Dry, unhealthy skin.
Uneven skin tone & discoloration.
Rejuvenation & nourishment.

**not recommend to just use it alone to treat skin that has active acne.


How to use:
1) Use day and night after cleansing and prepping the skin with toner.
2) Put about 1-2 drops of the C20 Vitamin Serum on to the hand and apply to dull and sagging areas.
(Avoid sensitive areas such as the eye, lip, or any scarred area, and use on the face as a whole.)
3) In daylight or outdoors, always apply sunscreen (with at least SPF15).
4) A slight tingle sensation may be felt at first use due to the pure vitamin nature of the product.



Important TIPS: Please keep inside fridge to use it for a longer time and to keep the product potent.  Apply light water based toner or essence before applying the serum for better absorption.  Products get absorbed into the skin faster when the skin is wet.

The liquid is clear with yellowish tinge.  As for the texture, it is watery with a little trace of oil.  That is to be expected since vitamin C has a little tacky texture in their natural form.  I don't think it is sticky at all.  Of course it feels even better if you mix with a light moisturiser.

The C20 pure vitamin C 21.5 smell of light orange =).  Don't worry as the smell disappeared along with the application.

It is said that one can feel a slight tinge on the skin.  I experience that only on the first day and also on area with broken skin.  However, it does not cause more damage but help to fasten the healing speed on that area.  So I will say it will work better if your red acne scars are new.  Also if you want to enjoy those tinge feeling, then you can definitely feel it if you have area to 'heal'.  Most of the time, your skin get accustomed to the ingredients so your tolerance will become higher but it does not mean that it is not working on your skin.  C20 21.5 definitely speed up the skin ability to renew itself that slow down with time.

I can say that my skin heal faster and make it look fabulous than when I am not using it.  It works with my other skincare products as well.

I think Pure Vitamin C21.5 Advanced Serum has really versatile way of applications.During the day, I use three drops and mix it with my moisturiser on my face.  Then, I apply sunblock.
Sometimes, I will just mix it with my toner.

At night, I followed the same routine except no sunblock.
If I am using sleeping mask, I follow this routine. cleansing, toning, eye cream, pure vitamin 21.5 and then sleeping mask.  The effect will be more obvious when I am using mask. =)

I think it is really a great product for those who can't use retinol as Vitamin C works to build collagen on the skin too.  I will purchase this product again for sure!

C20 (OST) Pure Vitamin C21.5 Advanced Serum is another amazing Korean serum for brightening and for anti ageing.  The price is very much affordable compare to other products that use Vitamin C as its main ingredient.

**Words of caution, this is not for treating acne but you can use this to treat the red scars left by acne.
** Also do not shake the new bottle or else you will have all the precious vitamin C 'erupt' out of the bottle.
*** Usage INSTRUCTION: cleanser>hydrating toner> vitamin C21.5 serum> moisturiser .  Unless you want to increase the capability which can make your skin red, raw and sensitive from overexfoliation then you can try use it right after cleansing.



You can made your choice between the old version or the new version as generally there is mixture of reviews on the old and new version of the Vitamin C.

If you talk about texture I will prefer the new version as I really dislike stickiness and the fact that the company removes the paraben and other potential ingredients that are irritants to the skin.

However, if you have really dry skin and for budget friendly, then go for the Original version.  It will also works better during winter than in summer.

REVIEW ON VICTORIA SWEDEN EGG WHITE FACIAL CARE SOAP (LANOLIN-Ă„GG-TVĂ…L)

Victoria Sweden Egg White Facial Care Soap was popular in Korean in 2015 because of the egg white properties.  In Asian,  Victoria Sweden Egg White Facial Care Soap was featured on Astro’s shopping channel, GoShop recently.

It is a popular products because it was used even by the Swedish Royal family since 1924.  Of course, I was excited when this  Egg pack arrived on my door.  Before that, a little information on the product.

VICTORIA SWEDEN EGG WHITE FACIAL CARE SOAP  (LANOLIN-Ă„GG-TVĂ…L)
VICTORIA SWEDEN EGG WHITE FACIAL CARE SOAP  (LANOLIN-Ă„GG-TVĂ…L)


ABOUT

Victoria Scandinavian Soap AB is a Swedish family run company that was founded in 1905 in Helsingborg Sweden. Since the early 1900s we have produced soap of the highest quality in our soap factory. Our long tradition and experience has led to long standing brand names such as: Cremosin, Tallba, Victoria and Lanolin-Ă„gg-TvĂ¥l. We also manage the development and production of soap for private labels in all shapes and sizes. Since 1924 we have had the honor of being the purveyor to his Majesty the King.


LANOLIN-Ă„GG-TVĂ…L

For generations Swedish women have been mixing their own facial masks that contain glycerin, rose water and egg whites. Inspired by this we developed the popular Eggwhite Facial Soap. This unique facial soap with lanoline and rose water cleanses the pores and gives you a fantastic complexion.


Sweden 's Egg white Facial Soap has been a part of healthy caring for the skin in Sweden for generations. Originally prepared by Swedish women at home, an eggwhite facial was a weekly tradition to maintain pure and glowing skin. With extracts from plants as cleansing ingredients and added goat milk, the Eggwhite Facial Soap helps to maintain your skin in soft conditions. Suitable for use in the morning as face soap as well as face pack in the evening, the wide usage of this product is convenient and suitable for everyone.


Directions:
The most fabulous thing is that it can be used as:

Facial Mask: Add some water to the soap in the palms of your hands and work up a rich lather. Smooth the creamy foam onto face and neck and let it stay on for about 5 minutes before you rinse off with comfortably warm water. Gently dry with a soft towel and a clean and fresh feeling will appear.

For daily cleansing: Add some water to the soap in the palms of your hands and work up a rich lather. Thoroughly massage the foam over your face and neck. Then rinse off after 3minutes with comfortably warm water and dry with a soft towel.


Ingredients: Sodium Palmate, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Aqua, Olea Europaea fruit oil, Palm Acid, Glycerin, Lauryl Glucoside, Parfum, Sodium Chloride, Palm Kernel Acid, Lanolin, Sodium Lactate, Lecithin (E 322), Tetrasodium EDTA, Tetrasodium Etidronate, CI 14700 (Red No 504), CI 77891 (Titaniumdioxide), Rosa Damascena (Rose water), Albumen

The soap has smell of faint rose mix with oil.  It was lathered easily and it has abundance of soft foam.  Cleansing my face with it was easy since it removes and cleanses all the makeup easily.

My face feels really clean, tight but not dry.  However, application of moisturiser after that is a must or else my skin will start feeling dry.

 I think this soap will work well during summer, in hot weather, oily and combination skin type.  Remember to apply moisturiser after that.  Personally, I don't think it will work that well as egg mask for dry skin type.

As for cleaning the pores it does work =) .  My pores are smaller after two weeks

It is multifunction soap and it is easy to bring it for travel since the soap can act as face cleanser and body soap =).  Men will love it for sure.

SKINCARE TIPS: ACNE PRONE SKIN CARE

Although it is really hot because I am living in the equator, it is especially scorching hot this few months.  There are many tourist coming to Tioman Island for the beach and for snorkelling because the beaches are really beautiful now.  While the weather is fun to dress in summer clothes but the harmful sunrays are not for your skin.

Here is what you can do to prevent skin troubles and to protect your skin.  If you have been reading my blog for a long time, you will know I had bad pimply skin and sensitivity.  My face was like a living volcano and not mentioned how bad I felt.

That aside, taking the opportunities to thank you dear readers who constantly visit and leave comments here. =)  I don't think I can last this long without support from you and brands who are kind to me.  Some of your kind comments really brings tears to my eyes.

I am sorry for lack of update this month as I wasn't well but I will try to do my best =)   Thank you for liking my long posts too.  I was actually afraid if many will find that I write too much and bore you with too much information. .

SKINCARE TIPS: ACNE PRONE SKIN CARE

So here is my current tips on summer and for acne prone skin.


1. Do not use those harsh bar soap on your face

Those soap are usually harsh on the face and drying so using it can cause the skin to develop sensitivity and throw the skin balance out of the window.  If you really love soap, maybe go for handmade soap which are usually more gentle and tailored made for skin.

2. Eat fruits and vegetables containing antioxidant
This is a no brainer that vegetables and fruits containing vitamin A, E, K, C and B helps to protect the skin and heal the skin.  Of course healthy skin shows those glowy skin.  Besides that do go for those fish oil which are good for skin.  Try to eat less sugar,alcohol and red meat as those are contributor to ageing.  Do add green tea in your daily water intake because in long terms, it will show on your skin.


3.Exfoliate your skin with AHA, BHA or natural ingredients such as vitamin A or C
There are many types of exfoliate products out there.  I will steer away far from harsh exfoliant such as grainy scrubs and nuts' shells.  Clay masks, peeling gel and cleansing tools such as those 3D or 4D brush are better for sensitive skin.

Tearing your skin is not exfoliate, it is torture.
Besides, it is not necessary to go for exfoliant that contains high chemicals as irritated red skin will just spend its time to heal the skin than accept beneficial ingredients.

Exfoliate skin is to clean the skin without making it red.


4.Use sunscreen and other skin protectant
Do use protectant and go for 40-50 SPF and go for light emulsion type of sunscreen or sunblock as those are for daily use.  You will only need those 120 Pa++ Japanese sunscreen when you are going for beach activities.  High spf actually means more chemical and thick kind of texture which not everyone skin can take it. If it is not used up for protecting your skin from the sun, then it will just clog your pores.


5. Oily skin, Combination skin and sensitive skin
People will always think that sensitive skin means dry skin.  Then oily skin must not be sensitive.  Third, combination can only mean oily at T-zone and dry at the other area.  I can tell you that is usually the wrong concept of people trying to impart their views.

Because of believing what these people told me, it had caused a lot of problems for my skin.

My skin is acne prone, sensitive and also combination of oily at nose area and normal at other place.  It is a wrong conception that one with normal skin can't have acne.  Most acne products are targeting oily skin which made it very harsh on sensitive acne prone skin.  I had learnt it the hard way.

So, read through the ingredients and know your skin very well before spending your hard earned money on products.  For me, I always avoid benzoyl peroxide.  It just doesn't work no matter how many times I had tried it.


6.Avoid eating too much supplement

There is no evidence that eating supplement help the skin in long run. So, that is why most sellers are frustrated trying to sell me supplements which I don't eat.  As long I make sure I eat healthy meaning lots of vegetables, fruits and fish there is no point burdening the liver to get rid of those toxic caused supplements.  I was there and I can say eating supplement doesn't help my skin at all.

Another thing about eating those supplement for acne. It will come back once you stop!



There is no fast track towards healing acne because acne is not just a temporary condition.  Don't wait for it to disappear on its own.  So, treat it while it is not serious and don't wait for a one day cure all for acne because this kind of medicine hasn't been created yet.






No products recommendation here.  What I have here is my personal opinions on what I had tried over the years.

REVIEW ON MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE


Hi beauties,Some time ago, I put up news about Melvita Nectar bright brightening concentrate Here .

I think it is an Asian thing where we really dislike 'tanning' and 'burning' our skin for darker tone because we prefer lighter skin even if we have olive skin.  Of course, I do not mean bleaching our skin to be as white as sheet.

Asian loves fair skin tone and healthy porcelain skin.  So, it is common that many people here like brightening products to even the skin tone and correct those dark spots.  Regardless of age, dark spots can form in any type of skin so it is best to use brightening products to help with it.

What I have here the famous French brand, Melvita Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate for review today.

MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE
Melvita Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate



Brightening Concentrate – Targeted corrective action


The Melvita Brightening Concentrate brings together a complex of 5 white flowers* with illuminating properties and a brown alga extract with brightening properties, for complete corrective action on uneven skin tone.


Usage Instructions: Every morning and evening, after applying essence and before your moisturizer,put on a few drops of Brightening Concentrate using the dropper applicator. Focus on areas of uneven skin tone. 

Tested under dermatological supervision.Non-comedogenic.For adult use only.

99% of the total ingredients are from natural origin.

53% of the total ingredients are from Organic Farming.

The bottle is opaque white and it is made from glass so be extra careful not to drop it to the floor from a very high position.  Other than that, it is quite sturdy.

There is also the silver coloured dropper for easy application.




What I could say is this concentrate is closer to ampoule than essence or serum because of the texture and performance from this pure white bottle.  The concentrate smell super amazing with floral scent that soothing and calming to the senses.  One only need about two drops for each application to see results. The clear concentrate texture is thicker than water and absorb well into the skin and is not sticky at all.
MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE

One can use this as a spot treatment for part of the face that needs more brightening up and to lighten the dark spots on the face.  I use it on my stubborn dark spots I have been having it for years and it is lightening up gradually.  The results probably look more obvious on the photos because of lighting and because my dark spots are not that dark.  Red acne scars and lighter colour will fade faster.  Results might varies with your type of skin too.

**Words of caution is do not apply it on skin that is still erupting with acne or pimples. Brightening products is not meant to treat acne so choose the right products for your skin.
** Not for those allergic to lemon


Overall, if you are looking for brightening, gentle, organic fragrance, organic and natural products with Ecocert, then do try Melvita Nectar brightening concentrate.





Melvita Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate retails at RM230 for 30ml.

REVIEW ON 23 YEARS OLD PERGILLUS 15SEC FOAM CLEANSER

From my Korean haul Here, I bought this 23YEARS OLD Pergillus 15 Sec. Foam Cleanser out of curiosity.  Of course the 'gum stuck on the face' was the main reason I bought it.  After all, I do like to try something weird and it sure is interesting right?

23 YEARS OLD PERGILLUS 15SEC FOAM CLEANSER

The tube comes wrap with plastic. =)




Pergillus 15 Sec. Foam Cleanser


By fermenting all-natural ingredients, we've incorporated a non-irritating, safe to use formula with the magic of a thick, sticky cleansing foam that bonds to the skin to remove dirt & grime even deep within the pores only to leave healthier, clear skin behind with a hydration barrier to protect & prevent.


Pergillus 15 Sec. Foam Cleanser is made with 4 key ingredients as well as all-natural ingredients full of nutrients for a pure, safe to use formula without irritants and artificial chemicals. The 4 key ingredients collaborate with each other to form the signature stickiness that makes the Pergillus 15Sec. Foam Cleanser so unique.

The stickiness allows it to closely blanket the skin for a deep cleanse down to each and every pore while all-natural ingredients such as beeswax creates a protective hydration barrier to prevent dryness & to protect from irritants.  So don't cleanse with just foam anymore, cleanse the easy, smart way with Pergillus !


Recommend
Pergillus 15 Sec. Foam Cleanser is recommended for people in want of :
A non-irritating, deep cleanser.
A simpler, easier solution for skin care.
A pure product that will cleanse & hydrate.





How to use:
To remove natural makeup, use the PERGILLUS 15sec. foam as the 1st cleanser and rinse with water. For heavier makeup, use the PERGILLUS 15sec. foam as the 2nd cleanser to follow your normal routine.

1) Apply an adequate amount of the PERGILLUS 15sec. Foam Cleanser to the face and massage for 15 seconds.

2) Let the thread technology do all
the work & watch as it magically removes the built-up gunk deep within the pores !

3) Enjoy clear skin with long-lasting hydration, and flaunt your flawless
skin !


TIP: Wet and roll for 15 seconds and follow with a gentle patting massage for more stickiness & even more fun !

The cleanser has fermented ingredients such as Aspergillus/Rice Ferment Extract and Saccharomyces/Cordyceps Sinensis Ferment Filtrate - . It is actually cleanser paste that comes that turns into foam with the presence of water. Apply the paste on the face and apply a little water. Circle about twice and you can see the sticky gummy texture that resembles cheese.

Personally, the gummy texture disappeared if you put too much water. It can also disappear once you put water the second time and after 1minute. If you want more gummy texture, then put more paste on the face and just add a little amount of water, not too little or not too much. With enough practice, you will get more gummy texture that resembles the video. With this cleanser, one only need about 20seconds to clean the face.

The cleanser that look like glue might scare you but the gummy texture doesn’t feel sticky at all. In fact, it just feels like any regular cleanser. It is also more hydrating to my face compared to other foam cleanser. My face does feel really clean and hydrated. This is the first time I find a cleanser that cleans so well. Even my family members love it now because it cleans so well and hydrating.

As for the smell, it has a faint smell of fruits which I think most will like or at least don’t mind.  Unless you have very dry skin, I think many will like this cleanser especially for summer and oily skin type.

Update: it has ph of 9 so it is not ideal for those looking into ph balanced cleanser
