Here is the case with the sponge.  Incase if you think that the mirror is blurry, it is actually covered by plastic.

Do remember to remove the plastic from the mirror.

The cushion case closes really tight and well so you don't have to worry about products spilling out.
The case is also made from good quality plastic as it did not dissemble when I accidentally drop on the floor few times. Did not break into pieces too.

The cushion puff pick up appropriate products and application of bb cream is really easy consider that I don't like to use bb cream with my fingers outside.  The mirror is clear and not heavy.  So carrying this and just lip tint is enough for me to touch up my makeup outside.  I don't like to clutter my bags with lot of makeup products especially when I am travelling.

I only dispense my bb cream because if you mix with other things, the duration of the products will only few days before the products go rancid.  If you plan to put your sunscreen into this, make sure do not mix other things into it.and do not put near sunlight or warm places (sunscreen only will last a few days exposed to air and the hot weather. physical sunscreen will clump)

Overall, this is sure a useful case =)  . If you love blusher cushion, you can try DIY your own too.  After all, who doesn't like to be a mad scientist once in a while?

REVIEW ON ROSKEN SKIN REPAIR DRY SKIN CREAM

There are times when the skin is dry and using moisturiser is important to avoid itchiness or redness.
I like to mix my body oil with this moisturiser for dry skin because the effect will be more long lasting and it works better for me.

I have combination skin for face, oily hair but the skin on my body is very dry so one can understand where all the oil goes to.  All the skin types in one body. T_T

Specially formulated for use on dry and damaged skin.  Significantly increase moisture levels and provide instant relief from the symptoms of dry skin,

ROSKEN SKIN REPAIR DRY SKIN CREAM



It has light scent.  One will need to apply this daily to see the effect and if your skin is severely dry like mine, then it is better to mix it with highly moisturising oil like argan oil or sweet almond oil.

Using it on its own when I was having severely dry skin doesn't help much. Overall, it is drugstore products that moisturise the body skin and it is affordable.

Although you can use this on the face, I prefer not too since it has some ingredients that is clogging for acne prone type.  There is paraben and also mineral oil that many will not find it appealing.

Do check out the skin repair for sensitive skin if you need to see the differences between the two.  skin repair for sensitive is not moisturise enough but does not have a scent.


Products retails at 15.50 for 75ml.Made in Australia. Available in local pharmancies.

REVIEW ON THURSDAY PLANTATION TEA TREE DAILY FACE WASH FOR ACNE


Tea tree is sure one of the familiar ingredients for treating acne and oil skin type.  It is really one of the wonderful ingredients for acne prone skin type who looks for something natural =).  Here is a cleanser that contains tea tree ingredients for acne prone skin type =).

The naturally derived cleanser captures the antibacterial power of Tea Tree Oil to gently remove sebum excess, dirt and makeup without stripping the skin of its natural oils. It leaves the skin looking clearer, fresher and healthier. The foaming, soap free face wash is ideal for combination/oily skin and helps to prevent the occurrence of acne and pimples.

THURSDAY PLANTATION TEA TREE DAILY FACE WASH FOR ACNE
THURSDAY PLANTATION TEA TREE DAILY FACE WASH FOR ACNE


This is a tea tree cleanser that is really gentle and not drying at all to the skin. It doesn’t have any clogging and dangerous ingredients in it. It cleanses my skin gently and doesn’t irritate my skin. I have been using this cleanser for 2 weeks and have not been breaking out at all thanks to the soothing ingredients in it. This cleanser also has fewer ingredients which will suit acne prone skin type. I used to have those underground pimples but not anymore with using this =).

There is another cleanser from Thursday Plantation but I find this is a real keeper.

My skin is also well balanced and using it does keep the oil in check. The foam is soft, not irritating and smell of tea tree =)  . Do keep in mind to use makeup remover to remove your makeup since this foam is not enough to clean everything.

Overall, it is a cleanser that I will highly recommend for acne prone sensitive skin type since it is gentle, soap free and does not contain any ingredients that can potentially irritate acne prone skin type.


Another cleanser that I love and put into my list of favourite =) .

It is also comes in form of pump which is hygienic.

The first ingredient is water and the second is aloe vera.  There is alcohol as the third ingredients but the amount is low.  However, if you have erupting acne or other skin issues then I will advise you to avoid using whitening serum.  Other than that, all the other ingredients are safe on the skin.

 The serum smell fantastic of floral scent which I do love.  The serum is like light cream which goes smooth onto the skin leaving no trace of greasiness

It does help to brighten up my skin and does not irritate my skin despite it having alcohol.
I think this serum is most suitable for ageing skin type that starts to have ageing spot and in need of brightening serum.  Best to use it with the miraculous oil because that will help with balancing the moisture and oil on the skin.

3. Add in the self raising flour add in the salt. Mix until it is smooth.  Add in the banana mixture and mix it. Leave it for 30 minutes.
4. Add in the vegetables oil and mix until it is smooth.
5. Grease the mould and pour the batter into a mould 8X 4 X 3 inches.

REVIEW ON KIKU-MASAMUNE SAKE BREWING SKINCARE EMULSION

Hi Beauties,

As much I love using fermented stuff, it usually are expensive and rarely comes for body products. Love using sake filtrate as your skin but without breaking your bank? Introducing to you this sake filtrate skincare product from Japan.

Apparently this is a famous brand in Japan and it is made by Kiku-masamune Sake brewery (1659)! This is part of my small haul from Japan. You can read about my haul HERE. I actually talk about the shipping and the price of personal shopping for Japanese products.

If you are in Malaysia, please use SAL(slow registered post) and not EMS when you are shipping from Japan or other countries.

Kikumasamune skincare emulsion
Kikumasamune skincare emulsion
This is the new 2015 version of the emulsion.  It comes wrap with plastic and in a lovely pink bottle.  The writing is really good and will not fade away with constant holding and rubbing.
It is 380ml and in pumps.

Sorry, I can read a single word of Japanese here.  The emulsion is as famous as the toner lotion.  Mine was one of the few last bottles.  I took the plunge actually to order the emulsion instead of the toner because I am running out of body lotion and this has fermented stuff in it!  The brewery stop making it because of the changes in the weather. I was disappointed when I couldn't get it but I just have to thank the web owner for looking it up for me.  Japanese offers such dedication and really good service!

The emulsion smells like fermented sake.  I love the smell actually.  The smell is really faint actually.The emulsion is opaque watery white. Application is just so easy as the emulsion absorbs into the skin really well without any stickiness.  Your body will just feel really silky. Good for person who hates thick body butter.

I love this emulsion very much.  I am using it on my body and it really helps with my skin dryness.
I love the feeling of bathing in sake goodness everyday and it is only like USD12 for such amazing stuff but I guess I can no longer get thisT_T .  I considered myself as being really lucky the first time to still get my haul and just ended with a warning letter but I won't be lucky for the second time.
Why my skin love you Kikumasamune Skin Care Emulsion??? Now, I have to go find a dupe available locally.> <  .


However, please do check the ingredients as some people may feel worried because of the mineral oil in it.



PS:warning. If you are living in Malaysia like I do, then please do not Order brands that is not in the notification list through EMS.  IF you are really lucky, you will get a warning letter like me. I am really grateful and can't thank my lucky star enough for the whoever that hold my parcel is being nice to me and my product arrived to me with just a warning.  Worse your things get stuck at the "kastam" and destroyed just because some people is not holding the licence to import those product to this land! Do read this problem written about another person here too.  It is okay if the product is one piece, from brands available here such as Shiseido and not more than 1month (not more than 100ml)supply if you still want to use EMS.  It has to comply with some healthy regulation which I don't know what. Make sure it is below Rm400 or you will get tax no matter what of shipping you are using.

To be safe, just use registered post(SLOW POST) which is slower but at least you will get all your things.



Product retail at;
Kikumasamune skincare emulsion at Kirei official website or in Amazon
Shipping is based on weight. They will send them you an invoice from PayPal after they decide on your shipping fees.

My haul direct from Japan website.

So, I put up the ingredients in case you will be interested to read on before running out to buy the cleanser.  There is the SLS and colouring so for those who are particular about it then better not get it.  I don't really mind as long the product doesn't give me allergy and cleanser is not going to stay on the face more than 1minute.

The green tea extract is actually almost at the end of the list so the amount is little to make differences.  So the key ingredients that helps with the skin condition is actually COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE which is actually a calming ingredients and antiseptic to the acne prone skin.  Besides, there is the glycerin which is actually beneficial to the skin.

The cleanser does foamed up a LOT.  I think oily skin will find this helpful.  I did not leave the cleanser on my face because it is very drying to my other parts of my face.  This cleanser is definitely NOT for dry skin acne prone type.

I do love the smell of the cleanser which is refreshing and of green tea. =) Since cleanser doesn't stay on the skin for more than few minutes, the thing to look for is that it cleanses well, doesn't irritate the skin and doesn't dry the skin.  Use a separate makeup remover because this couldn't remove waterproof makeup.

Overall I will say that it is not a bad drugstore cleanser for very oily skin and if you are not using other strong actives like other AHA, BHA, retinol or retinoid products.

Word of advice-do not use other AHA, BHA, retinol or other peeling stuff with this cleanser if you have sensitive skin or your might have peeling skin later.

REVIEW ON OXY ACNE PATCH

When using just one acne product is not going to solve your skincare problems.  Many brands came out with their own version of acne patch since acne patch had gained popularities because of the ability to suck up the pus inside the acne and thus reducing the size.

Now, Oxy came out with this ultra thin acne patch which is really thin and not visible unless you are few cm away from my face.

Inside there is 26 different size of patches and also a tweezer.

The acne patch does help to make me stop picking on my acne at every opportunities I get.  I think Oxy acne patch is quite helpful and has the strength to pull out the pus from the acne.  The size is reduced.  However, it doesn't work for cystic acne or those underground acne that doesn't have the 'head' yet.  You can still apply on those 'acne' to lessen the chances of further irritating that area.

Change the patches every 3-4 hours as leaving it too long can make the patches too sticky so when you remove the patches, the top of the 'pimples' might get remove and everything 'flow out'.  In that case, clean it with betaine or some wound disinfect and apply another new hydrocolloid patches on top.

It doesn't stop the pimples from appearing so adopting a healthy lifestyle and using the suitable skincare products is important. Acne patches is just to help speed up the healing process.

Here are the things that you need.

Scissors
Silver holographic Cellotapes
Silver nail polishes


You absolutely don't have to use the same brand of nail polish that I use. As for the silver holographic cellotapes, I get it from stationery shop that sells 10 rolls for RM2.25 (USD 0.50) .  It is way easier to use since they are already in form of stickers and I can use scissors to cut them up.
This is the easiest since I find that holographic papers doesn't last as long as the one in stickers.
