REVIEW ON L'OCCITANE EN PROVENCE SHEA FACE COMFORTING OIL

I admit that there was one dark time in my life that I was into oil free this, oil free that and everything must be oil free to avoid the skin from getting oilier.

I am the glad that I started using facial oil because it seriously made a lot of different in my skin. My first love of facial oil venture was actually all-in-one oil for scar which I applied on my face and the next thing I know, it was love at first sight and I love facial oil.  So, if you have oily skin, don't be afraid to look into facial oil that can help your skin.

If you are into organic brands, then do stay and have a read on my opinion on L’OCCITANE Shea Face Comforting Oil.  Their Shea line is one of the favourite line among customer =) .

Here is some details about the origin of the shea butter.

Women’s gold… a symbol of life
The shea (karite) tree is essential to West Africa, and in the local language, the name means “lifegiving”.
The butter produced from the nuts is used by women for cooking and protecting skin. Shea Butter is also known as “women’s gold” because it ensures a precious source of revenue for the women involved in its production. In Burkina Faso, local women are the only ones who know the secret to how the butter is made. They use the income they earn from Shea Butter to pay for household needs and also for the education of their children.



A tale of sustainability

In 1980, L’OCCITANE founder Olivier Baussan discovered the magic of Shea Butter during a trip to
Burkina Faso. Processed by hand, it had surprising effects on the skin of the women who handled it:
instead of damaging, it softened! Intrigued, he decided to develop a range of products based on Shea
Butter. The very first product, Shea Butter Hand Cream, was launched in 1994. Immediately, women
around the world fell in love with it.

Scientists at L’OCCITANE have discovered that Shea Butter is exceptionally rich in Omega-6 and karitene (a powerful moisturiser). Together, these ingredients nourish and protect the skin every day.

The bottle is made from solid heavy glass. The cap and pump is from plastic. It is recommended to use it within 6 months since organic products tend to have shorter life span but I think oil generally have longer life span.

L’OCCITANE Shea Face Comforting Oil

The Shea Face comforting oil smells amazing of sweet floral scent.  The clear yellowish oil has a smooth and silky texture. It is not greasy or waxy on the skin.  The oily leaves a subtle sheen and feels light on the skin. My skin was really dry and patchy from the changes in weather, face allergy and stress somewhere in Jan and this help my skin condition to get through those tough time. L’occitane Shea Face Comforting Oil and other skincare products help to restore my ‘moisture barrier’ back in the normal level. It is especially useful to seal in the moisture after using a sheet mask =). Just pump a few drop of oil into the palm and pat it on the face. Wrap your face with your palm to help with the absorption.

Ingredients are 100% organic.  Still do look into the ingredients if everyone skin is different.

Overall, my skin seems to like this facial oil because of the comforting scent, light texture and the moisturising property that it provides. Not to mention that I like the elegant packaging XP .  It is like a bottle of gold.

REVIEW ON CUBECRATE NOVEMBER 2016-WORKING DESK SPACE

November month Cubecrate brought to me a surprise box 😍 again.  It is extra special since it is my birthday month and I am really sorry for the postman to deliver it on a raining day😭 . I thank you Mr.Postman for your dedication to deliver my box despite such bad weather.

Normally, I would be having a giveaway but I don't think I could make it this year for many reasons.  So without further bla bla bla about my life, here is what is inside the box.

This month theme is working desk space💓

Oishi green tea Lychee flavour.  The  green tea flavoured with Lychee is blended well and it is really delicious.


Alys The Bakerland Old Skool Granola.  Alys The Bakerland was found by Alyson who is a food lover. She chooses the right food and make it herself. She sourced her premium ingredients such as organic rolled oats, nuts, dried fruits, almonds, cashew nuts,pumpkin seeds and honey. Every batch of granola is made by hand.


Candlenuts by Nadia sample in Keep Calm.  It is the first hand poured candle in Malaysia that use palm wax.  The paraffin is not good for health and environment. We can also blend our own scent and create our own signature.

Overall, I love what is inside the box but the box does look smaller this month.😋 It would be nice if the candle is full size instead of a sample because who doesn't love a long spa like experience?

REVIEW ON DEMETER FRAGRANCE LIBRARY NY MOOMIN PERFUME GEL CUSHION IN ICELANDIC AURORA

😊 How are you? I heard that some places have begin to snow. I hope that it is not too cold?

As for me in Malaysia, it is the end of the year with lots of rains only if it isn't flooded 💓. The temperature is just nice when staying indoors.

Also, it is also beginning to feel like Christmas with year end sales going on😃.  If you do follow Korean beauty trends, BB cushion is not something new.  With many Top western beauty brands jumping into the Korean cushion bandwagon, I find that one unique cushion product is this Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume. 

I was lucky to win the Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume in Icelandic Aurora which is so cute from 0.8L . It is a website which social editor's write their honest reviews on social media about their experience. As long you have a Facebook account or Instagram account, you can be their social editor😀

I don't get any special privilege even when I am a blogger 😅.  So let's jump into review about this Demeter Fragrance library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume in Icelandic Aurora.

First of all,  Demeter is a perfume company from US. Their perfume are really nice and unique.
So combined with the popularity of cushion makeup products, Demeter decided to come up with cushion gel perfume gel.  So here is the Moomin cute character on it.  There are two seasons.  This one I have here is the Moomin character in Icelandic Aurora 😍.  Moomin is stamp on the outside of the case so it doesn't comes off easily.

The Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume is like a mini cushion the size not bigger than my palm making it easy to carry it around.  The case is made from strong plastic and it is really light to carry for easy touch up of perfume😍. No one likes to carry the whole bottle of perfume right?

The perfume is in form of gel inside the cushion.  The Icelandic Aurora scent comes in light blue cushion.  Inside the cushion, there is a mini puff the width of my two fingers😊.  It doesn't have a mirror and in its place, there is a sticker of the Moomin family members.


Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume in Icelandic Aurora smells of fresh wash linen but I guess everyone will have different views on scent since scent is very personal.  The smells isn't strong and it does have few notes.  I find it does last about 2 hours on me.  The smell disappeared once it reaches 3 hours of exposure.  The hours of wear can also depends on your skin and the weather.

Make sure to not leave the perfume in hot places as it will change the smell.  I think it is cool concept since no one will notice that I am actually applying perfume.  People will notice if I am carry atomiser, trying to spray perfume and the sprayed perfume gets everywhere 😖.

The sachets I have here are the refills in different type of scent.

The one notes scents are
👶baby powder
🍞white musk
🍊fizzy navel
🌸sweet baby
👕clean soap.
These are available in form of bottled perfume.

The other three scents are perfume or par fum which last longer.  These are only available in the cushion case.
💙Moomin character (Icelandic Aurora )
💓Moomin papax moomin mama (spicy floral)
💥Snokmaiden (sweet citrus) 

Overall,  Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume is sure an interesting concept, suitable for those on the go and if you don't like carrying a heavy perfume bottle for touch up.  Just make sure not to confuse this cutie pie with the cushion for face😍

REVIEW ON TEFAL MANUAL CHOPPER

I think most of the time for Asian cooking is spend on cutting onions, garlic and also chilies 😖.  It is really a hassle and sometimes I just wish I can dump the whole big chunk of onions or garlic into the wok. Wok is Asian 5 in 1 cooking utensils. Wiki mentioned it as versatile round bottom cooking vessel.

So, when I received this in my Box of Joy 😍I was so excited to try if this Tefal Manual Chopper could really chop stuff since someone told me that it is useless😟. Don't tell me to use my only blender for meat and for my vegetables because I won't 😅

Here is a review on Tefal Manual Chopper.

Trying out big chunk of fish meat into the chopper.

Tefal Manual Chopper

Wow, blended into minced meat 😲

Tefal Manual Chopper

Tefal Manual Chopper claims that It chop food items in 5seconds. 😬 Only if you can pull it fast enough in 5 seconds. If you take a break like me, it is going to be more than 5 seconds. I use it actually to make minced meat.  The chopper knife is really sharp so becareful when handling. I do find that the plastic made from good quality and it is easy to scoop out my cooking ingredients from it. Washing it in also easy.

Tefal Manual Chopper really cut down  my cooking time because it can make minced fish meat way more faster than I chop it manually😲. By manual labour with knife, it takes me an hours and I smelt like rotten fish after that.  With Tefal Manual Chopper, I just put the cleaned up fish into the chopper, close the lid and pull the string for about 10 times until it becomes minced meat. The food also taste better with this manual chopper than in blended since it does not heat up.  Blender tend to 'heat' up the food so it doesn't taste as good as chopped with Tefal Manual Chopper.

Also beware of ones that look like this but is not even able to cut onions.  Good Tefal Manual Chopper is even able to chop fish meat into minced one so that is the good quality of product for you. Also it is so good that it doesn't use electricity which is really good for wanting to save up on bills.💓

So, overall I think this is a great products if you are constantly looking for affordable manual chopper that does it job.  Indeed a handy product to have.

REVIEW ON PSK PANORAMIC MASCARA

I think those with hardly visible eyelashes can understand my pain that it is hard to find a mascara that make the eyelashes shows up.  Don't even need to talk about lengthening or voluminous😢.  I am envious of those with natural thick eyelashes because every mascara just works for them unlike me.

Most mascara just doesn't show on my eyes and I just give up on mascara because my eyelashes are just hardly visible.   😎  However, this is my first time reviewing a mascara and here is the PSK Panoramic Mascara.

Psk Panoramic Mascara has a medium size wands and what is unique about it is the shape is made to give volume as well to lengthen the lashes.  The formula doesn't dry my eyelashes, waterproof and sweatproof too. Application is easy too but if you have more than ten coats, it is sure going to clump.  The mascara doesn't budge and can only be removed with oil cleanser or micellar water.  I do like that it help my eyelashes to be more visible as you can notice from the photos, it doesn't look like own eyelashes since my eyelashes are so sparse😑. The colour is pretty natural as it is dark brown instead of black😀.

Overall, PSK Panoramic Mascara is for someone just looking for waterproof mascara that provide natural volume. Of course it works better if you have thicker eyelashes than my sparse, non existent eyelashes😖.
