Browsing in Skin Care

When I first heard about Steam Cream on Muse, I was intrigued by the design of the packaging.  I don’t think anyone can resist cute packaging especially when you know you can even do something with the casing after finishing the product.

I was excited when I got my hands on Steam Cream Papillon too! Love the butterfly and colors of the jar. It makes my life feel lively somehow.

So, what is a Steam Cream? Using steam technology, Steam Cream is a gentle and loosely-bound emulsion. The ingredients include: oatmeal, orange flower water and lavendar oil. It is said to penetrate deeper into the skin which other products can’t. It is suitable for all skin type and sensitive skin too.

Unscrewing the jar.

While the screw of the jar is easily accessible, but becareful that the content might spill if you do not hold it up right. It will be a waste because due to the nature of the emulsion, it is quite runny. So make sure you handle it with care.

What I did was, I depot the content to a smaller jar with a spatula for hygiene purpose. And your product will not contaminated by your fighter especially if you want to apply it onto your face.

Through out all the years I have been using skincare, I have used numerous brands of sun screen. It is indeed VERY hard to find one that works best for me.

Now, I am glad/sad to say that, I have finally found the one that I really like - SKII Whitening Source Derm-Definition UV Lotion (SPF50) PA+++. This is also why the fatal attraction.  I did not buy this individually of course, it came in the set I bought earlier.

The superstar - SKII Whitening Source Derm-Definition UV Lotion (SPF50) PA+++.

One thing horrible is: there is no list of ingredients, at the back they only printed Japanese characters which I don’t understand.

Hello 2010!

Hello smooth nose!

I am sure you have heard a lot about this Cellnique Skin Action Sebum Gel, and it has been one of the best products around in the market to fight blackheads.

I won’t go on too much about the history, the SoLoverly girls have done a great job comparing B’liv and Cellnique here.

Ok…now the exciting part. If you remember my Biore porepack post, you should also remember how bothersome my blackheads are!

I never really found a solution till I tried this Sebum Gel.

WARNING: GROSS PICTURES AHEAD.

About 3 months ago, I bought a bottle of REN Mayblossom and Blue Cypress Balancing Facial Cleansing Gel. I am really in love with it!

Now that i have used it to the last drop, time for review.

REN mayblossom and bluie cypress balancing facial cleansing gel

REN products claim that they are safe to use, free from mineral oil, paraben..etc.

The packaging of all the products are really simple.

The great thing about this cleanser is:  it cleanses really well!  This Mayblossom & blue cypress is meant for combination skin, but it is not drying at all.

I love the refreshing scent and also the clean feeling after washing my face.

The pump works well till the last drop of the cleanser.

And this packaging is also made friendly for traveling.

Did you know that you can actually slim the product for traveling?

Yes girls, I am raving about the Clarins HydraQuench Cream Mask, once again!

But this time, it is different because I use the mask now for rescuing my lips too! I was told that we could use this mask on lips and eyelids too.

Bee and ParisB complimented that how my lips don’t have much lines, I didn’t think much about it till they reminded me that it could be the help of the HydraQuench Cream Mask that I have been using on my lips!

So, I am sharing this awesome tips with you girls now. ;)

Don’t we just love versatile products? :D

hydraquench crea mask on lips

Wash your lips clean, remove any remaining lipstick/gloss with remover.

Best if you have scrub too. I have lip scrub from Benefit but it is still practically brand new because I am so lazy to use it!

Leave the mask on for 10 or 15 mins. Don’t worry about swallowing it. I have tasted it numerous time, and trust me, it is not fatal because I am still alive now!

BUT, it did not taste good either. It tastes like..eating something that smells good but without any flavor.  Perhaps someday someone will formulate a flavored lip mask that we could swallow?  ;)

15 mins with clarins hydraquench cream mask

After 15 mins, the mask is almost dried. As you can see, my lips are dry too. And chapped sometimes!!!

I have lip balm but i am just too lazy to use it too. *SIGH*

Worry not… this mask is a god-sent.

The result…?
