REVIEW ON KLAIRS FRESHLY JUICED VITAMIN E MASK

Hi beautiful,

Wishtrend has been releasing new products such as By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water and Klairs Midnight Blue Youth Activating Drop this 2017. These two products has quickly become favourite among beauty enthusiast.

Here is a review on a new innovative product, Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E mask with a great fun skin entertainment value in it. I mean looking skincare product that looks like food is appetizing enough for my eyes.

Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask

Ingredients
Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Niacinamide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Carrageenan, Gellan Gum, Betaine, Algin, Mannan, Ceramide NP, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Chlorphenesin, Arginine, Ethylhexylglycerin, Centella Asiatica Extract, Rubus Fruticosus (Blackberry) Fruit Extract, Salicornia Herbacea Extract, Phragmites Communis Extract, Adenosine, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil

Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask

Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask has a beautiful heavy glass jar so make sure not to drop it to the floor. It also comes with a plastic spatula.

It has iridescent design on the front labeling if anyone wonders why it looks like rainbow or something. The design is to compliment the Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop and to amplified the effect of the essence.

What make this mask really fun and has skin entertainment value is the unique texture that feels like pudding and has the "shape memory" which returns to its original shape. If you dig a little of the mask, you will the hole fill up and being smooth again after you open the jar after 10 minutes. This texture is also the reason that it adhere to the skin really well without being sticky.

Looking into the ingredients, it is a light based sleeping mask with water as the first ingredient and glycerin the next. Vitamin E, Niacinamide(2%) are used to provide antioxidant and moisturising effort on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is also for use as humectant to provide hydration to the skin. Adenosine to promotes collagen synthesis, anti-inflammatory to help wound healing and regeneration. Ceramide NP for which is lipids that improve the look and feel of dry skin.

Betaine is a humectant and anti-irritant in cosmetic products.

Carrageenan is thickener and emulsifier which explain the pudding texture 😄 . It is vegan and extracted from red seaweed. Algin is also to give the gel texture and is from brown algae. Mannan and Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymeris are also a thickener, gelling agent and texture enhancer.

Plant ingredients such as Blackberry, Centella Asiatica, Salicornia Herbacea, Lavender, Eucalyptus, Lemon, Orange, ylang ylang are for those plant additional benefits such as vitamin c, antioxidant, calming, hydration, to control the sebum production, hydration and provide nice scent.

Chlorphenesin and Butylene Glycol are preservatives.

Honestly, I love the scent which is lavender with ylang ylang. The scent is a little strong but it does disappeared after a while. It smells the stronger version of their Klairs soothing cream.

Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask has the texture of white opaque pudding and it goes into a light milky essence upon application on the skin. The essence turns into invisible veil on the skin and has a cooling feeling on my skin. I tried it as morning moisturiser and also sleeping mask at night. I prefer it as sleeping mask at night since the hydration is a little more than I need for my hot humid weather during the day time. I am sure that it will work better as a moisturiser for dry skin type or during winter.

After using it for 3 weeks, I think that it helps with moisturising the skin, as occlusive, heal the acne red scars, prevent over exfoliation, balance the skin water and oil level, soothe the redness on my skin and brighten the skin. It doesn't prevent acne but it doesn't cause more acne. Unless you have problem with vitamin E, it won't break you out. It does help with reducing the fine lines on my laugh lines since it keeps that area hydrated.

Overall, Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask is a fun skin entertaining sleeping mask for someone who has a busy life, looking for more moisture, hydration, brightening product, heal the skin, anti ageing, loving the ingredients in this mask (Vitamin E, Niacinamide(2%), Adenosine& Ceramide NP) and no issue with other things in the product.

REVIEW ON SWANICOCO A.C CONTROL TEA TREE ESSENCE

Hi,

What are popular in Korea is not known outside Korea because of lack of marketing. One of such brand is Swanicoco. 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.

What I have today is the Swanicoco A.C control tea tree essence. This is an essence for sensitive, acne prone skin and suitable for even dry skin type that could not use stronger stuff such as tretinoin or 1% BHA or 10% glycolic acid.

Swanicoco

Swanicoco is a Korean natural skincare line that prides itself for its patented raw component and nano fermented formulations, using natural extracts in replace of harmful components. All formulations use latest ingredients such as Astraxan, snail secretions, rice fermentation, human oligopeptides, fermented cell cultures of ginseng & hydrolyzed collagen. Sung Chunsun started making simple homemade products grew into a large international company helping many people with skin sensitivity.

Swanicoco is against animal testing, natural, Eco-cert certified and using organic ingredients.

Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence comes in beautiful green and white design. The box is also very well made with a sturdy paper box inside to avoid the plastic transparent bottle from too much movement. I like that it comes in a dropper form too. I think it is great that Swanicoco even put a lot of thought into the packaging up to the aesthetic value and functional value of their product

The bottle is made from a beautiful glass bottle with a dropper which is great to control the amount of product.

Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence comes in a transparent liquid and there isn't any smell to it even when I bring it so close to my nose. The liquid spread into my skin really easily and absorb into my skin really well. I do love the texture as it doesn't burn and I can use it with my other spot treatment without any problem. I can use it at night as well during the day.

Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence has short ingredients list and I think there ingredients in there are really great for calming acne prone skin and hydrating it at the same time without being too much.

As for the ingredients list, there are many beneficial ingredients for acne prone skin. Looking for the ingredient list, it has great ingredients.

Zinc sulfate is great for acne prone skin which is always deficient in zinc. Besides, zinc can help the skin to heal. Plants ingredients such as Centella asiatica help to calm the skin. Sea buck thorn contains palmitoleic acid which nourish and heal wounds on acne prone skin. Peony is a traditional herbs used to calm the skin heat, removes toxin and provide antioxidant on the skin. Allantoin is an effective skin soothing since it is anti-inflammatory while also is an emollient. Trehalose is a type of sugar found in plants, fungi and invertebrate animals and is used as moisturizer.

I have been using Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence along with Swanicoco A.C Control emulsion and also the A.C Control skin toner. I really do like it because it is really gentle, does not irritate, help to keep my skin clear, reduce redness on my skin, doesn't clogged my skin and reduce the oil production on my skin while keeping my other area hydrated. My skin type surely has changed to be less oilier on my T-zone. I don't even need to blot my skin anymore. Although it contains tea tree oil, it had never even once burnt my skin no matter how much or how many times I apply it on my skin which is really amazing.

Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence would be a great start for someone dealing with light to medium acne prone skin and is not ready for all the strong prescription products that can scar the skin without the usage knowledge. Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence is of pH 5.5. Healthy skin pH is around 5.5 so having a product of that pH is great to keep the skin slightly acidic and acne controlled.

Overall, Swanicoco A.C Control tea tree essence is another gentle mild option as skin spot treatment for mild to moderate acne prone skin. One can use it every day and extra application doesn't cause the skin to peel or irritated. However, if you have serious acne, this might be too mild.

Product retails for

In Malaysia, it is available at selected Watsons and Watsons online.

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask in usage

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask after usage

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask has different ingredients in their eye serum, soothing cream and the ultra moisture mask which is great since it means they put great thought into them instead of just redundant ingredients which does the same thing. The eye serum contains calming, moisturising, revitalising ingredients such as beta carotene, lavender, green tea bergamot, aloe vera and vitamin C. As for the soothing cream there are a lot of moisturising and brightening ingredients which are very beneficial to dry skin type. Shea butter, jojobal oil, licorice,morus alba, angelica, sesame seed, hyaluronic acid, beewax and other plant ingredients which presented in hanbang skincare products.

The sheet mask contains the most interesting ingredients which are trehalose,betaine, ferments (ginseng, potatoes, rice, Ma yuen), hyaluronate acid, apple extract, ceramide 3, niacinamide and castor oil. Still go through the ingredients first provided above to check.

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask comes with authentication numbers behind the box. You can use that to check using the QR code readers. Their box and sheet masks are also made to be unique and different.

I think A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask has a great packaging since it is really convenient to bring during travelling. It save the space for us to bring cleanser and sunscreen. It is hard when we have to bring moisturiser, essence and moisturiser during travelling so this type of packaging is really convenient.

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask is a great sheet mask to bring during travel especially in the flight since the air can be very dry so this is going to be really nice and moisturising.

I have tried a few of A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask and I do think this is great mask for someone whose skin become too dry after makeup. Also it is something nice for someone that just want to do those "no makeup makeup" since it does make the skin glow.

I can only use a little of the soothing cream since I have combination skin and in a hot humid weather, it just doesn't sink in that well if I use too much. I use the extra soothing cream as sleeping mask which works out great. It is very moisturising and hydrating the really dry peeling area around my mouth. It has a light refreshing floral scent which isn't noticeable once applied. I do love the emulsion light lotion texture.

There are a lot of the eye serum which I decant a little to use the next day. The eye serum has a very light watery liquid which absorbs easily into the eye area. It does hydrate my eye area and help with the fine lines. There is mild floral scent for the eye serum. Please do not think that my eye bags disappeared because of this mask, it is there when I smile because of my face features. I don't want people to think that this is the only thing you need for skincare.

A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask has a great fit of the sheet mask. The material is soft and has wooden patterns instead of the usual paper sheet masks. It clings really well on my skin and I could wear for about 45 minutes. There is the same faint scent of the soothing cream which is relaxing actually.

I find that I like this sheet mask especially for the hydration and the soothing effect it gives. My skin sure feel smooth for three days even when I barely do anything on my face for that three days. I only use a cleanser and this A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask only and it is enough.

I think it is definitively worth the hype. The hydration is well balanced because it does not clogged my pores at all but give enough hydration boast. It is also make travel easy since it has eye cream, moisturiser and sheet mask in one packet.

Overall, A. by Bom Super Power Baby 3 Step Ultra Moisture Mask is for someone looking for instant hydration boost, dry skin, travel friendly, hanbang plants ingredients, during winter and no allergies to any of the ingredients. Also if you wanted to try products used by Kpop idols.

Product retails for

FOOD REVIEW: I EAT A CARNIVOROUS PITCHER PLANT

Hi foodies,

Truly, Asia is a place with varieties of cuisine and food. We have food that some find it hard to stomach. Food ingredients such as sea cucumber is deemed as one of the greatest food for beauty and staying young but the looks may make some run to the nearest exit.

Today, I am eating carnivorous Pitcher plants lemang which looks more like lunch fit for Tarzan. I bought it to try for science and to show my love of Asian food 😅. So if I don't have any new post after this, it means that I had probably died a horrifying death. Honestly, who are not terrified after watching all those hungry gross plant eating horror movies and now eating one?????

cooked carnivorous Pitcher plants

cooked pitcher plant

cooked carnivorous Pitcher plants lemang

Pitcher plant refers to species of Nepenthes and the Sarraceniaceae with about 170 species. It is characterized by the pitfall traps which look like pitcher with a closure at the top. It lures insects into the pitcher trap with sweet nectar and then drown the insect with the liquid which is called phytotelmata. Yup, basically I am eating a bug trap plant.

Just like the Pokemon Victreebel and Bellsprout it is a genuinely terrifying looking thing. However, it recently became a really popular as one of the traditional dish served during Hari Raya Puasa(a festival) to replace Lemang which is a traditional food made of glutinous rice, coconut milk, salt which is cooked in a hollowed bamboo stick lined with banana leaves. It is also a food eaten by the Bidayuh in Sarawak.

I think the one I have here is the Nepenthes species. I am not sure how this one look like in reality since it would means I need to go deep into the tropical forest to hunt for one 😓😰 . That is if I am not abducted by some forest aliens or eaten by wild beasts first.

Anyway, here inside this cooked Pitcher plant glutinous rice lemang. Hopefully this one has not become graveyard to too many insects or bugs.😰

Inside is the glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk and salt. It is easily removed by just cutting it with a knife or I can just tear the skin out like a Hulk.

It tastes the same as glutinous rice with coconut milk wrapped with banana leaves. If you served it to me without the pitcher plant, I won't even know that it is cooked inside this carnivorous plant. The glutinous rice is delicious on its own and it would be even better with chicken curry. The glutinous rice is soft with smell of banana leaves. There is no bitterness in it. I would eat it again if I am able to find it again because it is a rare traditional food. I do need those magic spell from Harry Potter to remove that particular strands of nightmare memories from watching too much plant eating human movies.

So, the next time you are in South East Asia and you are lucky to come across this pitcher plant glutinous rice is around, do try it out. It is sure better than Durian which is another love of mine for those adventurous people out there.

Product retails for
I bought it for RM6 per pitcher plant depending on size.
