REVIEW ON MELVITA L'ARGAN BIO GENTLE SHOWER GEL

How about a manly body care product today?

Many men now are complaining that most bodycare are too 'feminine' and flowy that they find it an embarrassment to be smelling like flowers XP.

Melvita is an organic brand from France and came out with great skincare for sensitive skin.  Now, they do have botanical products for body that are made from natural ingredients.  Melvita L'argan range has products that is manly enough for men =) .

What I have today is the Melvita L'argan Bio Gentle Shower Gel which is the newest addition to their L'argan range.

MELVITA L'ARGAN BIO GENTLE SHOWER GEL

Description
Formulated with a sulphate-free, gentle botanical cleansing base, foaming agents derived from argan oil and plant-based glycerine, the Gentle Shower Gel contains essential fatty acids to respect the skin’s hydrolipidic film and leave skin perfectly moisturized after showering.

MELVITA L'ARGAN BIO GENTLE SHOWER GEL

The smell is similar with the argan body butter but it is only strong during the wash. The smell is hardly there once washed off the body.  I do like the brownish transparent jelly texture which doesn't foam at all so it is good for even dry skin type. I do enjoy using the shower gel because it smell sweet and woody XP.  It has lactic acid and cocoa betaine which is to gentle exfoliate the skin without drying it. The shower gel do last quite long as little goes a long way =)

I think this is sure a great 'manly smelling' product if one is considering to get them as a gift =)  .
 .  Melvita L'argan Bio Gentle shower gel is sure an affordable organic products.

8 BEST KOREAN SKINCARE PRODUCTS FOR ACNE PRONE SKIN

It is ancient news that Korean skincare products had turned many non believers into cult fans with their innovative and affordable range of skincare products.

While I couldn’t afford the high end Korean brands because well … I don’t have a fat wallet but I do find gems in their more affordable range of Korean products.



Here are 8 Korean skincare products for acne prone skin that I like.

8 BEST KOREAN SKINCARE PRODUCTS FOR ACNE PRONE SKIN

8 BEST KOREAN SKINCARE PRODUCTS FOR ACNE PRONE SKIN

Here are the products that I like =)

sheet masks and snail hydrogel masks

I couldn't help but to start loving hydrogel sheet masks because those are just so nice and works fast to calm down my skin.  Another thing I like is the snail mucin in them because snail mucin just help the skin to heal itself faster and it is really important to acne prone skin XP.  As much as I hate snail crawling on my face.  ( I wonder how people can possibility let those I let those snail crawl around my face.  How if the snail poke inside the nostril?)

SKINMISO PORE BEAUTY NOSE PACK FROM KOREA

This is not a new thing because I have been trying quite a few nose pack and this is still the best.  While it didn't shrunk the pores into non-existent, it keeps the pores on the nose clean and clear. At least there is no pain or hurt the skin.  Using it is also fairly easy.  Definitely a keeper.

I'M FROM VOLCANIC MASK

I'm from is an organic Korean brand.  I do like their volcanic mask because it is so soft and has ginseng in them XP.  The products is on par with one of the famous brand for clay mask.  This helps to clean the pores without drying. The glass jar just makes it luxurious XP.

UGB Peeling Gel

I have been loving this peeling gel from UGB. It is actually under the same company as Nuganic. It contains ginseng and smell like one too.  It is a gentle peeling that is suitable for those who can't use anything strong such as AHA or BHA but needs exfoliation.  It is definitely a higher end brand with the ginseng in it =) . I got it from a counter in Malaysia.

their official website is http://www.skinanniversarymall.com/

KLAIRS SUPPLE PREPARATION FACIAL TONER

This is a hydrating toner that has fermented beta glucan that is kind to skin that is using many drying products such as AHA, BHA, tretinoin and retinol.  Acne prone skin needs some light hydration too so I find this help my skin with it and doesn't irritate the skin.  I bought this toner a few times already and they are just as good as when I got this for review purposes.  I just don't fancy that it has perfume smell in it.

C20(OST) PURE VITAMIN 21.5 ADVANCED SERUM

21.5 advanced serum is the newer version of the OST20 but the price is also double.  If only it is the same price as thee OST 20, it will be so great because it is not sticky and the list of ingredients.  It really helps to fade those red acne marks fast and even out the skin tone fast.  Just make sure to store in the fridge to avoid oxidation.  If only it does not oxidize so fast.

PERIPERA PERI TINT IN PINK JUICE

What I really from Korean products are their tints. Peripera produces the exact dupe of the famous Benetint but this is so much cheaper XP. I have been loving it since it gives a hint of colour on my lips without looking thick.  The packaging is also cute and vibrant.  Since then they came out with ink and other lip tint which are better than water lip tint =) .


Bought them from Wishtrend, Watsons and other official outlets.

Some are sponsored, some I bought it and repurchase.  However, the opinions expressed here are my own and honest as always.

TRADITIONAL FOOD LOST IN TIME- CHINESE CASSAVA CAKES / TRADITIONAL CHINESE TAPIOCA CAKES RECIPE

Cassava root is a staple food in many countries. It was the food eaten during the war to replace rice because it was easy to grow. If you have read or watch in many video, cassava is actually poisonous if you don’t know how to prepare it. Now it is no longer consider ‘cheap’ since not many people grow it.


Nowadays, cassava appears inside bubble teas as pearls.

I love the fried tapioca but well it is not really that healthy. Here is a recipe for a healthy traditional Chinese tapioca cakes.

TRADITIONAL CHINESE CASSAVA CAKES / TRADITIONAL CHINESE TAPIOCA CAKES RECIPE

TRADITIONAL CHINESE CASSAVA CAKES / TRADITIONAL CHINESE TAPIOCA CAKES RECIPE

Ingredients:

300g Tapioca /cassava

fried dried shrimps
cooked shallots
Chillies removed the seed
Pinch of salt
pinch of sugar
pepper
green onions
200ml water (or just enough to make sure it is not too soft)
100g flour


Steps:

1.  Grind the cassava with a grinder.  You can also smash it but it won't taste that good. Pour the extra water away.

2.  Add in all the other ingredients.

3.  Pour it into the pan.

4.  Steam it for about 20minutes.

5.  When it is cold, you can fried it if you like to make it more firm and crispy.



Enjoy them. It is nice to serve for tea =) .  This is a traditional Chinese cakes and only people during the olden days eat it.  I think this has now become extinct.  I don't see this anymore.  Besides, the younger generation doesn't like these kind of cakes anymore.  Ermm... I am not that old if it gives any impression that I sound ancient. XP



Tips: Do not reuse the water that you use to wash the cassava as they are poisonous.

REVIEW ON L'OCCITANE EN PROVENCE SHEA FACE SOOTHING FLUID

L'occitane Shea Face Soothing Fluid & L'occitane Shea Face Comforting Oil are natural additions that join the Shea skincare range.


Have you ever heard of skincare products using the UHT process? The process ensures that there is no need of using preservative but still retaining the active ingredients.

The process for UHT milk is now coming in a bottle of skincare for you. L’occitane is taking process of preserving milk to make skincare products safe for your skin. XP

It is interesting to think that the lines between food and skincare is getting blurred.

L’OCCITANE SHEA FACE SOOTHING FLUID

So, here is some details about this soothing moisturiser.

UHT in skincare? Yes, it is! You read it right.

You’ve heard of UHT milk, but UHT skincare?

L’OCCITANE SHEA FACE SOOTHING FLUID

L'OCCITANE EN PROVENCE SHEA FACE SOOTHING FLUID

I love the soothing effect of the soothing fluid. It actually calms my skin even it is fragile because of recovering from sudden allergic. It is actually a light moisturiser which is not heavy at all. The soothing fluid is so smooth and smells a lot like milk =) I am addicted to the smell actually. I only need about two pumps for the whole face XP . I think it is great for eczema skin as it is moisturizing, calming and soothing to the skin. With this erratic weather that we currently have here in Malaysia, my skin just turns dry from being combination.  I am really happy that I get to try this wonderful moisturiser.  The Shea butter line from L'occitane was highly rave in the Korean beauty show in January and I get what it is about =) .

I use it with together with the Shea Face Comforting oil for a better results to sooth my face. My redness was definitely reduced after 1 month of usage.

REVIEW ON EPURE AMINO HYDRO INTENSE CLEANSER

Epure is famous for their jelly mask which gets rid of skincare problems such as blackheads, acne and make your skin smooth after 45 minutes of usage.  It was really popular at one point of time.  It is also known for being gentle and relaxing on the skin.

I was sent samples of the ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser for review so here they are.

ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser

ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser

ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser

The samples are in form of 5ml eye drop bottle so it is really easy to take it for travel.

ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser

Here is the texture of the cleanser.  The opaque milky lotion appearance comes from the OP301 ingredient.

ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser

My lipstick, not waterproof eyeliner and waterproof purple eyeliner.

ePure Amino Hydro Intense Cleanser

After cleansing it with just the cleanser.

Full ingredients:
Aqua, Miami L-30, Emal S Paste, Amphitol 20HD, Prioly B750D, hyaluronic acid, honey extract, mulberry morus bombycis roots extract, Ablumide CDE, Xeradin , OP301, Kalcol2473, Kathon CG
I actually google here and there but couldn't find the full ingredients XP but managed to get it by contacting the company.


So, here is the break down of the ingredients of the cleanser.

Miami L-30 is actually  sodium lauroyl sarcosinate (30%) which explains the foam in the cleanser.  It is an amino acid derivative.   Emal S Paste is Sodium lauryl sulfate, Amphitol 20HD is actually low irritation surfactant.Prioly B750D is a blend of  Lauryl Phosphate/ Polyoxyethylene(1.0) Monoalkyl(C12-15) Ethers Phosphates/ Ethylhexylglycerin/Potassium Hydroxide/Dipropylene Glycol/ Water. Kalcol2473 is just a raw material for cleanser and Kathon CG is preservative

Cleanser doesn't stay on the skin for me than 5 minutes so it is kind of a waste to have some amazing ingredients in them especially with amino acid, morus bombycis mulberry roots extract, honey extract, hyaluronic acid, XERADIN™ which is from the plant Salvia sclarea L supposed to give 24 hours long lasting moisturising effect to then skin.  Unfortunately, since it is a cleanser, the goodness is just less effective.

Alright, I am going to be honest that while I think the ingredients are absolutely amazing, I do think that it is quite pricey for 100ml cleanser. but since it foams up so will need a very small amount of cleanser.  It does removed waterproof makeup unless it is sweat proof.  It is gentle and doesn't irritate my skin.

It claims to be suitable to all skin type including highly sensitive skin since it is Soap-free, alcohol-free and fragrance free.  It is not unscented since there is some smell of rose in it.

I have to be honest that I do not see anti ageing effect on my skin or the feeling of having moist skin if I don't run to apply moisturiser afterwards.  So the '24 hours' moisture is probably not going to live up on dry skin, hot and dry weather.


I think it is a decent cleanser for those that cannot live without foam cleanser, gentle, remove makeup, smell nice, doesn't contain alcohol and don't mind the price.  Please do not think that this cleanser is going to be  "All-You-Need" for your anti ageing regime. XP

Ph:6.5

REVIEW ON FRESHLOOK COLORBLENDS IN STERLING GREY

Colour contact lens is a part of accessories now =) . I think contact lens are also important if you wanted to emulate the look of celebrities, cosplay or for theatrical purposes. Just changing the colour of the contact lens change how we look.

I actually got Freshlook Colorblends in Sterling grey some time ago. I love the colour grey on people so decided to go with Sterling Grey for maximum grey tone on my eyes. I wanted to do a celebrity makeup with grey eyes but looks like I can forget about it now. The lens look different on my eyes T_T .

FRESHLOOK COLORBLENDS IN STERLING GREY

FRESHLOOK COLORBLENDS IN STERLING GREY

FRESHLOOK COLORBLENDS IN STERLING GREY

Here is my western girl wannabe look. Do I look cool?

FRESHLOOK COLORBLENDS IN STERLING GREY

The sterling grey is actually obvious blended of two shades of grey. It produces natural looks on the wearer. Don’t trust the colour on my eyes since the sterling grey turn into cool blue on my brown eyes. There is no big eyes effect since it is not circle lens. So, it does look natural if you met me the first time and doesn’t know that I don’t have blue eyes. I guess it is also for those that doesn’t like colour contact lens that has doll eyes effect.

The contact lenses are comfortable for about 6 hours wear. After that,  I need eye drops.  It is a monthly wear lens so it can last for 30 days. Don’t wear more than that because it can danger your eyes. It is not difficult to wear it and the size does suit my eyes.

I got it from Mr.Lens which is the cheapest online store for contact lens. They have good service and fast delivery too. A friend bought from them too and they are legit retailer =)

REVIEW ON CLAIRE HEALING HERBAL BALM

I got this from the Cubecrate November box which is an awesome subscription box. I think it is a tremendous amazing effort to be supporting local brands and looking for hidden gems among them.

CLAIRE HEALING HERBAL BALM

If you remember that I was having this stressful month because of my job, moving, dealing with my weak body and Chinese New Year. In the midst of so much trouble, my skin has to misbehave and I broke out bad with this sudden skin allergic around my mouth which makes me look as if I have ‘red’ beard. I had to wear facemask and everyone just has to ask me why I was wearing it. I searched through my stash for products to help with healing because no one wants to look bad and I have no time for shopping. I used this healing balm with insect bites and it really worked so I tried it on my face as well. It helps to relieve itchiness since it has menthol feeling and that area really heals fast.

By the forth days, I look normal again with no sign of skin problems which is really amazing! I love this balm and will stock it up soon =) . While it did not work great on my acne, it works really fast on skin allergic which I was really amazed with the result.
