REVIEW ON SHIRO WAKI HIME UNDERARM EXFOLIATING & BRIGHTENING CREAM

4. Once it comes off, remove those away.


SHIRO WAKI HIME UNDERARM EXFOLIATING & BRIGHTENING CREAM
SHIRO WAKI HIME UNDERARM EXFOLIATING & BRIGHTENING CREAM


It is easy to apply the cream onto the skin and leaving it for 10 seconds. Rubbing it is very effortless as the cream turned into powder like texture. The cream felt like a temporary foundation to whiten and brighten the dark part of the body slowly. Skin feels really smooth, smell nice and the whiten part looks really natural and not unnaturally white. One might to apply a few times to get the desired effect.

Since it contain titanium oxide, it can temporary look ‘white’ naturally. The effect do last the whole day or until one wash it off with soap.  The cream smell really nice too. It smell like baby powder.

I am not sure if you can use it on the face.  Preferable just use it on your body.

Overall, it is okay for those that look for temporary whitening solution but is not good in makeup or does not what those fake makeup look.

PS:  I am sorry that I have to use my hands because you won't see anything on my armpit > <  . I tried and the pictures is so blurry.

REVIEW ONALOVIVI PUREVIVI CLEANSING LOTION (MICELLAR WATER)


Gone are the days where removing waterproof makeup is an oily process.  With innovation in beauty products, Micellar water came into the beauty world with the power of magical water. (I don't mean it as drinking plain water)

Micellar water actually contains special molecules that attract all the dirt from the skin without having the sticky feeling of oil cleanser.  It is sure a makeup remover for those that dislikes oil or just want the feeling of water on the skin.

What I have here is the  ALOVIVI Purevivi Cleansing Lotion from Japan.



ONALOVIVI PUREVIVI CLEANSING LOTION
ONALOVIVI PUREVIVI CLEANSING LOTION



Purevivi Cleansing Lotion (Micellar Water) 

is a cleanser range under the brand Alovivi from Japan. Alovivi products are famous for its main ingredients – Aloe Vera – which is greatly valued as Japan’s royal plant due to its tremendous healing, nourishing and soothing properties. 


Purevivi Cleansing Lotion is paraben-free and alcohol-free, formulated with fruit and plant extracts. A 4-in-1 micellar water makeup remover. It dissolved makeup, cleanses, soothes and moisturises the skin. It promises to dissolve your makeup so fast and thorough it leaves no streak behind! 


Suitable for all types of skin even the most sensitive. It is capable of cleansing and dissolving all kinds of makeup including waterproof ones, leaving your skin feeling soothed and moisturised.


Contains 9 moisturising natural fruit and plant extracts such as Grapefruit Extract, Lemon Extract, Jujube Extract, Apple Extract, Orange Extract, Lime Extract, Coix Seed Extract, Cuneata Fruit Extract and Aloe Extract.


Purevivi Cleansing Lotion is also free from: - Cationic surface-active agent - Fragrance - Colour Additives - Paraben - Alcohol





ONALOVIVI PUREVIVI CLEANSING LOTION
ONALOVIVI PUREVIVI CLEANSING LOTION
There is no box.  It is a huge plastic bottle wrap with plastic.  The solution is transparent clear just like water but it is not the normal tap water.  NOT for drinking!  Becareful with kids around since they might mistaken this as some sort of drinking water.


The English instruction and ingredients are written on it.

The ingredients are Water, hyaluronic acid, aloe extract Grapefruit Extract, Lemon Extract, Jujube Extract, Apple Extract, Orange Extract, Lime Extract, Coix Seed Extract, Cuneata Fruit Extract and Aloe Extract.


Anyone with allergic with hyaluronic acid should probably avoid this but then you can always follow up with another cleanser to remove it.

I usually treat micellar water as gentle makeup remover.

So, this is the bottle with all the Japanese written all over it after you strip of the plastic.  Sorry, can't read a word.  > <

Remove half makeup from the face


I hope it doesn't shocked you that having eyeliner and eyebrow does make a difference in the size of my eyes.


I find that the cleansing lotion is not drying to skin.  As for whether it removes waterproof makeup, I will say it is harder as you need to soak the micellar water and place it at the waterproof makeup for a while before wiping few times.  I am talking about the purple eyeliner that won't budge or fade the whole day.

There is some sort of chlorine smell to it.  It is not strong but may not be enjoyable to some.  I wash of with a second cleanser because there is some sort of film if I leave it on my face.

Overall, a affordable cleansing water that won't break the bank especially for those who use makeup.
I wouldn't suggest one to just use it on its own.

The Elasah cream is transparent and light gel .  You need to gently massage it until water drops form or feels like it has turn into water, and lightly pat skin to increase absorption. A thin film will be form to retain moisture all day long.  It is meant for dry skin type.


The Boryeong Mud Pack has a grey colour and smooth texture to it.  Application is really easy.  The mud dries down to light grey and easily wash of.  The skin does feel cleaner and less redness overall.

Boryeong Mud Beauty Soap smells very much like mud as it doesn't contain any other fragrance.  It foams up but not much but you don't need the foam to clean the skin.  The soap cleanses my skin well and it is not drying.

Boryeong Mud Cleansing Foam has a pearly light pink colour to it.  One only need about a pea size as it foam up really well and cleanses the skin well.  It sure smells floral which is nice too =O

As for the shampoo, conditioner, body cleanser and lotion(toner) since I can only use them once, I can only tell you that they smell nice and doesn't irritate my skin.



Among all the items I have tried, Boryeong Mud pack and the Boryeong Beauty soap are products to look at if you are interested in Boryeong magical power of mud.

REVIEW ON LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL


Do you love oil or use them in your skincare routine?

I have found the benefits of using oil in my skincare routine.



Not only that oil is generally stable, it also helps skin to heal itself without preservative and oil generally last you for a very long time. There are oil for any type of skin and even acne prone skin can use oil.

Our skin is a balanced of oil and water so imbalance of any of it will lead to having skin problems.
Dry skin is recommend to use facial oil containing rose hips oil so here is a review on one.



LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL
LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL WITH ORGANIC WHITE TEA AND ORGANIC ROSEHIP OIL

Elegantly blended natural ingredients to give your skin the ultimate indulgent facial, revealing instant hydration, smoothness and brightness.

High in anti-oxidants to protect the skin and help minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Benefits:
Organic white tea to protect and effectively aid skin regeneration.
Organic rosehip oil to help minimise visible signs of ageing.
Organic evening primrose oil for its effective healing properties.


TIP: Do you suffer from dry, aging, or patchy skin? This gentle, rich yet balancing facial oil can be used directly on the complexion for very dry skin, or try adding 1-2 drops to your essential facial moisturiser every evening before bed for a richer moisturiser full of naturally active ingredients which help the skin to regenerate as you rest.



Ingredients:
rosa rubiginosa (rosehip) fruit oil**, oenothera biennis (evening primrose) seed oil**, camellia sinensis (white tea) leaf extract**, parfum (natural), benzyl alcohol*, citronellol*, limonene*, linalool*, coumarin*, citral*, geraniol*

*natural parfum component/composant parfum

** certified organic / certifiebio

Volume: 25ml / 0.85 fl oz



The ingredients are all natural and organic so no worries as it there are other irritating ingredients. The fragrance comes from the rosehip oil and primrose so nothing synthetic about it.  The smell is just like how rosehip plus rosemary will smell like.

The bottle is made from ceramic and so it is heavy.  Do not drop it from high places.
The print is really good and do not fade or disappear from the bottle.  It is pretty enough to decorate the dressing table on its own =) .


LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL
LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL


The facial is truly miraculous for those having really dry skin when other ingredients just sting the skin. One or two drops of facial oil is enough to moisturise the whole face.  My face also look really glowing when I use it it.
LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL
LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL

The oil has yellowish clear colour.  It is also thicker than tea tree oil but more moisturising on ageing skin and leave 'glow' on the skin without being greasy.
LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL
LINDEN LEAVES NATURAL SKINCARE MIRACULOUS FACIAL OIL

If you are using prescription and generally find everything else not moisturising enough, then do look into oils for they are knows to help balance the oil/water on dry skin that is beneficial to dry ageing skin.  It is not true that oil cause acne.  I have been using oils and there is no sign of it clogging the skin unless you use the wrong oil for your skin type or you are allergic to all sort of oils.

It is also a cost effective product since you only need one or two drops for the whole face.




Tips: Do not put oil into the fridge or you will spoil the benefits.

Soft glowing skin just like you went to spa?  It is time to take out those rubber masks!

Rubber mask or called modeling mask is the current craze for soft clean skin! I was very lucky that I managed to find it after seeing it on one of the beauty shows and beauty forum. The price is really reasonable too for such good result.

What I have here is the Korean modeling mask Ettang modeling mask take out cup which is really popular in Korea and in memebox.
ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)

Red and dry patchy skin on your face?



Ettang Calendula Modeling Mask soothes redness and inflamed skin - from acne, sunburn, dry skin and etc. Hydrates and protect the skin. Helps with skin healing as well.
Product Features
-Capacity: 17g
-It's not added with paraben, a chemical preservative. It's a naturalism product containing natural aroma oil.
-As the pack dries like rubber, it soothes the skin, provides moisture, and firms up face line and makes the face elastic.
-It helps smooth skin texture, bright skin tone, glossy skin

HOW TO USE:
1.Add water into the modeling mask cup, up to about half of the cup.
2. Mix well with the spatula included in the cup - until it becomes a thick paste.
3.Spread a thick layer onto the face - starting with the cheek, chin, forehead and end with the nose.
4.Leave it on for about 15 - 20 minutes before gently lifting the mask off.
5.Rinse off if any residue is left behind, with warm water. Continue with regular skin care routine- 
ampoule, serum/essence, and moisturizer. 

Recommended once or twice weekly use, to boost and clear skin.

Some little useful pointers:
Tip #1 - Add water gradually, little by little to the cup over about 2 - 3 times until your desired consistency is achieved.
Tip #2 - The modeling mask mixture, hardens quite rapidly - So, after mixing, apply straight to the face.
Tip #3 - Spread the mixture, thicker towards the edge of the face, so it can be lifted easily.


Ingredients:
Diatomaceous Earth, calcium sulfate, algin, glucose, tetrasodium pyrophosphate, potassium alginate, allantoin, aloe barbadensis leaf extract, calendula officinalis flower extract, cellulose gum, sodium benzoate, adenosine, fragrance



ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
Ettang Calendula Modeling Mask Take-out Cup
What I have here is the Calendula as my skin is sensitive and acne prone. The spatula comes inside the cup. There is also a plastic cap for those that want to separate the mask into two usages. However, that is not really recommended as thicker mask produce better results.
ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
Ettang Calendula Modeling Mask Take-out Cup

The powder for Calendula is white. The colour of the cup follows the types of ingredients it has. So, the white powder will turn slight yellowish once it is mix with water.

ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
 I followed the useful tips and so here is my mixture of mask. Add the water gradually until you achieve a thick consistency. Don't add too much.  The ratio is like 17g:17ml if you want a watery consistency.  According to a friend, she said the ratio is supposed to be 3:2 which means add 11g of water for a good best modelling mask =) .

It is called rubber because it contains elastomer.  The alginate is the one that cause the mask to become rubber. I had checked the ingredients and all the ingredients are safe for the skin and will not harm the skin so it is suitable for even sensitive skin type.

ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)

 Okay, I look like some sort of monster with dripping solution on my face.  You can use this for monster costume since Halloween is the end of this month. XP

ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
 Try to apply as soon as the mixture is ready. It will get harden a little by little and thus the ugly texture will turn up on the face.  Easier to apply if you have those big spatula too.  I am using the spatula that comes inside the cup XP  .

ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)
ETTANG  CALENDULA MODELING MASK TAKE-OUT CUP (RUBBER MASK)

It will turn rubbery once it dry up after 20 minutes.  Then, peel it off from the face.


Here is the result

There is only two kind of coffee serve here so do not ask for all those other fancy names or you will the blank look of the owner.  It is either cold or warm coffee so don't ask for latte, mix coffee with tea, mocha, americano and etc.

I love the coffee since it is serve is traditional ceramic cup that really reminds me of the old days (I am not that old) .  The coffee has the right sweetness and it just goes into the throat leaving the smell of aromatic coffee beans trails behind =)  .  Ah, the good old days.


Sorry that I am not sure how much it cost since it was like 3months ago.  It is not over RM5 for a cup of coffee and bread.  I am shy to ask how much each things cost since they operate by calculating everything together and there is no receipt.  XP

REVIEW ON THURSDAY PLANTATION TEA TREE OIL

Tea tree oil is a familiar ingredient for acne prone skin or called trouble skin.  It is a very important ingredients for someone looking for natural approaches and for oily skin type.

If you have oily skin with acne problems then tea tree oil is actually useful.  It has actually been years since I tried tea tree oil but I have finally decided to try Thursday Plantation.  In the past, I tried some other brands that has tea tree products before.

The brown glass bottle is to prevent changes to the ingredients.  Tea tree can be oxidized by air and also light.  It is 100% pure because tea tree doesn't need any preservatives since the oil is antimicrobial and antifungal.

I like that there is a stopper to prevent leaking and to avoid accidentally pouring everything out when we only need few drops.

Tea tree oil has a strong fresh camphor smell to it. It has clear yellowish watery texture and colour.

Tea tree oil is actually very much potent in its undiluted form.  If you have sensitive skin, do applied moisturiser after that or else be prepared to feel the 'burn', dryness or irritation.  My skin turn red if I don't apply anything after that.  Alternative mix it with moisturiser before applying it to your face.

I also mix it with green tea to make toner and mist.

A reader, Luscious shared her beauty tips that is mixing tea tree with ylang ylang.  Too bad, it is hard for me to find ylang ylang in my country =(  . If you could find it, then try it because ylang ylang is very calming to the skin.

I find that tea tree oil does help to shrink those pimples.  Getting the oil is more useful since there are many ways to use it.  Besides applying directly on face, you can use it for DIY tea tree masks, mix it with shampoo to treat dandruff, to avoid mosquitoes and create your own mixture with other oil.

A must to have in every hold =).


Do not eat tea tree oil as it is toxic for consumption.

Do not use it:
-While pregnant or breast-feeding without medical supervision
-Near eyes. Seek medical attention if contact occurs
-On children under 2 years old
-Undiluted essential oils on children under 12 years old. Skin patch test prior to use.

L’OCCITANE CHARITY FUNDRAISING FOR THE BLIND INITIATIVE 2015/2016



L’OCCITANE and the L’OCCITANE Foundation have been working hand in hand with many organisations that are dedicated to fighting blindness. Did you know that there are almost 285 million blind or visually-impaired people throughout the world? However, the shocking thing is that 80% of blindness is actually preventable! This problem is especially apparent in low- or medium-income countries, where 90% of the visually-impaired live. So far, more than 1,500,000 people have benefitted from eye care thanks to L’OCCITANE’s efforts to support the blind and visually-impaired.


L’OCCITANE CHARITY FUNDRAISING FOR THE BLIND INITIATIVE 2015/2016









Just like the sighted, the blind and visually-impaired should have equal access to everything, including knowledge, facilities and even personal beauty products and toiletries. All of L’OCCITANE’s product packaging comes with Braille text, which enables them to obtain the best of beauty in its natural state. Everyone deserves the opportunity and convenience to enjoy the feeling of being pampered, and in line with the brand’s philanthropy, L’OCCITANE recognises the importance of making life easier for the visually-impaired.



Beginning from year 2011, L’OCCITANE also presents the L’OCCITANE Sight Award, which awards 50,000 € once every 2 years to an ophthalmologist for his or her research work in contributing to the fight against avoidable blindness in developing countries. In 2011, the award was given to professor Volker Klauss for his work in Africa. In April 2014, the second L’OCCITANE Sight Award was attributed to Dr. Clare Gilbert, which helped to fund eye screenings of 10,000 children in Bangladesh.



On a local front, L’OCCITANE Malaysia began its charity for the blind initiative in 2008 to give back to the local community. The brand works closely with the Malaysian Association for the Blind (MAB) to help improve the lives of the blind and visually-impaired in Malaysia. Since year 2013/2014, L’OCCITANE has also added St. Nicholas’ Home, Penang, to its list of beneficiaries.



In conjunction with International World Sight Day on 8 October 2015, L’OCCITANE Malaysia is organising its signature charity campaign for its 7th year running. This year’s theme, “The Fight Against Avoidable Blindness”, will involve raising funds for MAB and St. Nicholas’ Home. The funds will be channelled into conducting eye screenings and prescribing glasses for those who require attention, among others. Through this initiative, L’OCCITANE Malaysia also hopes to create greater awareness on the roles played by the L’OCCITANE Foundation and L’OCCITANE Malaysia in sight-related charity projects, so that all Malaysians will know more about the causes.



This year’s fundraising initiative will benefit the Ipoh branch of MAB. Located in Kinta Valley, the centre helps many individuals from the low-income sector such as farmers, who have limited access to hospitals and are not exposed to information on eye disease and the prevention of blindness. Eye screenings will be performed on: a) elderly people who have cataracts, and advice for cataract surgery will be provided; b) children between 5 – 17 years old who have refractive errors, where spectacles will be prescribed to improve their vision; and c) students with low vision problems who will be prescribed with Telescopic Magnifiers or Pebble Magnifiers.





For St. Nicholas’ Home, the funds will be used to provide eye screenings for at least 500 students in rural areas, including pre-schools. At least 100 people from the low-income group will also receive free spectacles or intra-ocular lenses that help to correct their vision. As for the general public, awareness will be created by organising exhibitions and talks on eye care in schools and community centres. Last but not least, St. Nicholas’ Home will organise workshops and training for community workers, medical staff and teachers on the importance of eye screening as well as other vision-related issues.




Every year, L’OCCITANE Malaysia introduces a solidarity fundraising product. This product is then sold in L’OCCITANE boutiques throughout the campaign period, and all the profits gained will go to selected local NGOs to support the visually-impaired in various ways.


Mr. Tan Seong Teck, Director of L’OCCITANE Malaysia, expressed his thoughts on L’OCCITANE’s charity efforts. “Year 2015 marks our 7th year of organising our annual fundraising campaign. It’s become one of L’OCCITANE Malaysia’s signature events, and every year, the response is extremely positive. At L’OCCITANE, we aspire to be more than just a beauty brand that makes and sells products. Our founder, Mr. Olivier Baussan, has long-believed that the values of authenticity, respect and sensoriality should be applied in real life, especially in the sense of helping those who are less fortunate. To date, we’ve raised a total of RM233,240.00 (two hundred thirty three and two hundred forty thousand) which has been channelled to NGOs in Malaysia to help the blind and visually-impaired. Furthermore, we’re very lucky to have customers and fans of L’OCCITANE who also uphold these wonderful values. Together, we’re able to make a difference, and that’s what counts. I urge everyone to join L’OCCITANE Malaysia in “The Fight Against Avoidable Blindness” and make a difference for the blind and visually-impaired.”



L’OCCITANE Malaysia’s fundraising initiative 2015/2016 will run from 7 October to 31 December 2015. The special-edition Shea Foot Cream & Tin Box set (30ml, RM41) will be available at all L’OCCITANE boutiques nationwide.
