L-R: Yoona, Eco Science Wrinkle Spot Essence(Pro), It's Real Rice Mask, Eco Science Cream

Yoona came back with me! LOL! Just a complimentary Eco-Monthly Magazine from innisfree. Though they were all written in Korean, I was attracted to Yoona here and the rest of pictures in the magazine itself - So decided to get one back.. Hehe!   

I have been using innisfree products for months now that I am giving thumbs up for it. The main reason I am getting more of innisfree products is because it pursue an eco-friendly green life to preserve the balance of nature. The researchers made them all with natural ingredients, not forgetting their eco-friendly containers; aside from loving the environment, our skin is feeling loved too!  

Eco-Science Wrinkle Spot Essence Pro

The sales person told me the 'Eco-Science Wrinkle Spot Essence Pro' is their best selling products for the eyes area. It can be used on laugh lines too. Of course I don't purchase this item just because of their selling point, I browsed over the Internet and found positive reviews too. 

I personally like this item as the texture is just great! Not oily but still it has the moisturizing level that my eye area look moist after application. It did not cause  milia seeds or any small bumps around the eye, which I think is just great for daily use. 

This wrinkle functional spot essence contains Jeju pristine marine plants and comes with a subtle vibrating tip producing 120 vibrations per second to rejuvenate fatigued skin and to treat wrinkles. The vibrating function will allow formula to absorb into skin as you gently massage around the eye area. 

I am seeing reduced fine lines  but not totally gone (if that happens, I think no one will ever get old..LOL) and my eye area is not as dry as before. Major love this essence that I will purchase again. I have been using this for five months - almost twice a day. I guess it can last you up to six months or more. It cost 33,000 won; around RM 105. 
Worth the money!!

My rate : 8/10 

If you are going to Korea, check it out at innisfree! Sorry to say they are not available in Malaysia yet!! You could try Hermo.my. They do have some products from innisfree :-)

The eco science cream - I bought it after testing its texture at Gimpo  International Airport. This cream claimed to be a naturally derived wrinkle treatment that promotes skin vitality with marine plants from the clean and pure ocean of Jeju Island. It contains marine plants that are rich in Vitamin A and minerals to rejuvenate the aging skin and to foster self-protective power of the skin. 

It contains 99.7% of natural origin ingredients with 11.2% are from organic farming. That's the reason why you see this product is certified by ECOCERT Standard.  

I personally like the scent of this cream. Not too oily to my liking ( I have combination skin -oily to dry) Anyway, I don't use this cream on daily basis as I like a switch from anti-aging to hydration or whitening regime! So many things need to take care! Haha!

The only setback is I wouldn't know when this cream is going to finish as I can't see the left over with the white bottle packaging. In that case, I'll just time the duration of me using the cream. 

This cream cost 28,000 won; around RM 87 and I am still using the same bottle after five months! :-)

The Story of Eco Science that I googled from the web

Another one of my favourite - innisfree eco science white C pore double serum
This is enriched with eco-friendly tangerine peel, mint extract and green complex from pure jeju island. The eco science white C helps to clear and reveal translucently soft and tender skin. Tell me!! How not to love?? <3

A lovely friend just got this for me from Korea weeks ago. The rest of the items in the picture - the green tea mask and green tea serum is complimentary from my serum purchase. Talking about giving complimentary samples, Korean sales person is always very generous :-)

This serum is part of whitening plus pore control care. It helps to clarify skin tone and tighten pores simultaneously, leaving our skin looking bright and sleek. 

I have just started using it not too long ago. Like the texture and it won't feel dry to my skin. I only used them in the morning though.. I love the scent of this tangerine mint serum <3

As for the pore tightening, I don't see significant change, probably just a bit. The bottle and its pump is not that user friendly. I need to pump the right way in order to obtain both the right amount of serum - two different passage to obtain the green and orange serum.

This cream cost 37,000 won; around RM 108. Guess its cheap compare to other brands of serum. 

My rate : 7/10

This is the innisfree products I bought from Korea! Shall share more soon :-)

Till then, Bye Bye and Happy Weekend!! :-)

Hatomugi Lotion

Introduction my favourite skin conditioner

HATOMUGI LOTION 

There are times when I get too lazy to do my daily beauty routine - tone, essence,serum, moist,sleeping mask; I will just do with Hatomugi Lotion 

What is this Hatomugi Lotion? 

Hatomugi contains natural plant extract 

Hatomugi is also called coix seed or better known as job's tears

It's a traditional Japanese skin-healer, spot and freckle remover, complexion-lightener and general beautifier

Why do I love it?

A moisturizing and not sticky lotion that penetrates easily into areas of my dry skin

It provides ample moisture to my skin, keeping it smooth and free from roughness

It soothes the skin after sunburn, and has cooling and tightening effect

It can be used as a daily replenishing treatment or a deep hydrating mask

My favourite cotton pads from Daiso - 2boxes (90 pcs/box for only RM5)

How to use?

Pour onto cotton pad and use is as a toner. Using toner is good to ensure our skin is completely clean and restore our skin pH level. 

It will then prep us with the next usage - essence or serum by ensuring full absorption.

It can also be used as a face and body mist.

Best results to use?

Pour generous amount of Hatomugi lotion onto cotton pads and apply it as a face mask for approximately 5 to 10 minutes daily.

Where to get Hatomugi Lotion?

Hatomugi Lotion is available at Sasa nationwide. It cost only RM 29 for a size of 500ml. This is real affordable for a such a size of toner. If you are going to Japan, grab them for only Yen650.

I am sharing with my sister and it could last me approximately three months per bottle.

Go grab them now. SASA is giving away the cotton pads of 60x85mm with any purchase of Hatomugi Lotion. You can use the cotton pads for face mask.

Results?

It's my third bottles of this Hatomugi Lotion. 

It nourishes, enhances and maintains the skin's moisture balance.

It also improves skin's clarity, suppleness and texture.

This is an inexpensive item and are significantly cheaper than pouch type face sheet masks.

Even so, they are still safe to use. We may have concern on the quality since this is sold at cheap price. Fear not as Hatomugi Lotion is fragrance-free and colourless. 

Also mentioned in VIVI magazine, they received favourable comments.

Hence, use it with peace of mind! 

XOXO and many hugs from me ^_^

Essential Eye Care with Laneige & Sasatinnie

Go read my first entry of eye care if you haven't ^_^  Eye Care Part 1 

Using eye creams and massages could really help us achieve less-tired eyes. Of course, all these won't diminished away the imperfection; after all we are humans! Our skin and our eyes won't look different overnight but being someone who works extra effort would make a difference in the long run. 

I always believe our body are God-given and it's good that we take good care of it ^_^

Okie.. Enough of the story-sharing! Haha!! Let's see what I've got to share today!! 

My current favourite eye masks! This is from SASA and you comes with 3 pairs of eye masks in a packet. The packaging is resealable and it allows us to keep the remaining of the masks. This amazing item only cost 4 packets for RM10!! How not to buy?? 

I need all of it - Anti-Oxidant Regenerating, Detoxifying Anti Puffiness Smoothing, Intensive Sparkling White and Aqua Boost Moisturizing. I could use it like twice a week. ^_^ 

But before all of these eye mask applications, do we really deep cleanse our eyes?

Korean Inspired Hair Band | Flower Earring | Taipei City Sweater

The very delicate part of our face that is our eyes - we tend to enhance them with colours. So to me, removing make-up is crucial. If you do make-up, make sure you cleanse it well too! You don't want to see fine lines become deep lines overnight! 

I used to find something easy and fast for removal to remove eye make up. However, I still find them not perfectly clean. The residual from mascara and eye liner usually trapped on my eyelid area. Really frustrating and I tend to rub it a little hard on my eyes to ensure its completely clean!  Thank you but I get more lines now! T________T

No more harsh cleansing with this Multi Cleanser and Lip & Eye Remover! You can see it stated on the bottle - Speedy & Safe! Really good right? When I get to know more about Laneige products, I discovered lots of its benefit. I received these samples sizes from Hermo. If you are wondering any new products would suits you, try sample products, go browse Hermo website. They have lots of haul brands and Korean brands for us to try before buying the standard size!

I just need to shake well the bottle of oil free Lip & Eye Remover before use and the double-layered liquid forms will emulsify instantly to melt and remove any type of make up.

By applying onto cotton pad and place on my eye or lip area for five seconds, it will help to melt the make up. After this, I need wipe off gently. Very simple right?  

The cotton pad that grab away all my make up - mascara, eye liner and eye shadows! 

One side of the eye is clean now. Super fast and easy! 

Here I am using the Laneige Multi Cleanser. This 4-in-one cleanser is very useful especially during travel. It removes make-up, removes sun screen, exfoliates and cleanses at once. You will be having a completely fresh feeling.

This cleanser gonna help to cleanse the rest of the face and even my eyebrow mascara. Ever since I dyed my hair, I tend to apply eyebrow mascara just to blend them well. Otherwise, I look odd - you can see after removing make up, my eyebrows looks very black and harsh! Look so fierce ==" But I still feel blessed - look at my eye lashes; they are adorable to me - Long and visible ~ Hahaha 好自恋！！ 

Yeah! Once having perfectly clean eyes, we can now apply our favourite eye masks and eye creams. 

All clean and ready to sleep. Bought the eye mask from Bangkok! Very cute wording on the mask. I obviously need those eye mask as sister sleep later than me. She might wakes me up when the lights is on. 

Look I have dark circles! Need to apply Sasatinnie eye mask now!  

Looks like panda bear here - just that the mask is white and not black! LOL... 

Love the cooling sensation you'd feel while putting it on. Remain the mask on the eyes area for 10 minutes, peel it off and I can go sleep after the application. Don't need to wash them away! 

Now confirm can sleep! Haha.. Bought this cutie mask from Daiso. It looks big on me but still ok cause the main reason I bought because it contains some lavender seeds.  I can smell them and it made me sleeps better! Hehe!!

Till then, Good nite!! Sleep tight and Sweet Dreams!! ZZZZZZZzzzzzz.... 

Fresh Faced with OLAY Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System

Sharing time!! On a beauty tool that I major love. It's not new to most of us I guess but they are still raved by many celebrities and bloggers. By the way, this product has just reached Malaysia like one month ago although we could get them overseas like years ago. Anyway, I got mine online when I randomly browse through the web. This is it - The OLAY Professional Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System. 

Deng.. Deng.. Deng.. Deng... Introduction my new baby. You know how I got to know about Olay Pro-X? I was watching a Taiwanese Drama (Substitute Princess) and it came to an episod where the main actress was using a kind of facial cleansing. Of course, that is not Olay but Clarisonic. When I searched for Clarisonic, the comparison of both products somehow appeared on the web. Meaning to say a lot of users have been comparing them. After seeing several reviews,  I somehow optioned for OLAY Pro-X. 

Me with OLAY Pro-X. Being an avid fans of Pro-X, I diligently uses it like every night. As long as we are not lazy, we can have good skin! 

As a regular person who applies make-up - sunblocks, BB or CC creams, foundations and even concealer - I usually faced clogged skin especially when I do not cleanse them well. Manual cleansing alone wouldn't be best option. 

How OLAY Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System came about

Leading dermatologists and OLAY skin scientists have partnered to establish the OLAY Professional Alliance at U.S. to design this sophisticated tools to treat our specific skin care concerns. OLAY Pro-X uses an Advanced Cleansing System, a battery operated with 2-speed facial cleansing brush.

Why OLAY Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System

It cleanses skin 6x better than our regular manual cleansing and helps maximize the immediate hydrating effectiveness of our serum, essence and also anti-aging moisturizer.

The two-speed rotating system delivers daily cleansing and gentle exfoliation. It literally help to deep cleanse our skin leaving no residue and it won't be too harsh to the skin. The soft bristle brush is truly fine enough to be use daily. The brush is recommended to be replace once every three months. Super good for sensitive skin. I realized that it also helps reduces whiteheads and blackheads around our nose and chin. I now seldom use the blackhead remover tool. Yay! Super happy!!  

It is water resistant that I can use them in shower. When you dip the whole thing into water, the tool will still works.

Another plus point will be, I can use any cleanser of my liking instead of using only OLAY selected cleansers with this brush. 

It is cheaper that any other facial brushes and still works wonders. The reason being cheaper is because its battery operated as compared to chargeable tool. I truly feel this is worth investing. ^_^

Even the Taiwan famous programme -  Ladies First also recommend this product. I loved the softness of the brush. Feel so delicate to the skin that it can be used every day. 

Chance for you to try the real thing now! Watson is selling it for RM 129. However, I saw that during sale, this item is priced at RM 99. It's a steal item during sale. Must grab! 

I have fresh faced. My skin is healthier and happier now. It's just perfect for my sensitive skin!

A simple tool with impressive results. Get this and your skin with love it lots!! LOL.. 
Good night everyone! Pray for another great weekend to come!! :-)

LANEIGE Firming Sleeping Mask

Have you been looking for something easy to apply and wake up with crease free skin? We are familiar with almost all types of facial masks including sheet masks, bubble masks, clay masks and even leave-in masks. It's easier to use something that we don't have to wash them away after ten to twenty minutes. Sometimes, we got lazy but still want to look pretty at the same time. 

Kudos to Amorepacific, founder of Laneige - they continuously improve and upgrade it's products. Laneige Firming Sleeping Pack - currently one of the raved product in Asia! Thanks to Hermo.my again!! Received my sleeping pack in perfect condition. Super loved how they boxed and bubble-wrap our orders ensuring the products we received are in superb condition. I can also recycle the boxes and bubble wrap they sent us. Talking about environmental-friendly act! ^_^

Laniege 50ml Firming Sleeping Pack comes with a spatula for hygiene purposes since it does not come in bottle packaging. This supple and resilient pack restores skin firmness while we sleep. This is actually Laneige sleeping pack's new version, an upgrade version of the Water Sleeping Pack. The main ingredients - SleePOP -  an instant reshaping memory form gel that rejuvinates the sagging skin during the night. As for Sleepscent - it release a scent that helps deep sleep and soothes tired skin. I don't need to remove once I applied it, I can go to sleep and my dragged skin will be UP! My mood will be UP too!!  :-) 

Look at how the memory form gel recovers in 20 seconds. No matter how often I used the spatula to stir the pack, it will return to its original shape. This means the pack gonna restore and enhance my skin, it gonna help to recover my ongoing wrinkles during the night and prevents damage during the day. Sounds so good that  I can't resist Laneige again! Well, I literally need firming care now!    

It's easy to use this firming sleeping pack. After cleansing in the evening, remember to apply your favourite toner, serum and emulsion. Apply an appropriate amount of sleeping pack and gently spread from the chin to the center of the face towards its contours. Let it stay in the skin during the night and wash it off in the morning. 

That's the spatula from the pack. Laneige is always a loved item. I am sure most of ladies out there agree with me. Yesterday night before sleep, I applied the Firming Sleeping Mask, When I wake up the next morning, I went to the mirror and look if any crease lines from sleep. I feel more comfortable sleeping on my stomach and I am sure all these position contributes to crease lines. To my surprise, no more crease lines! I could feel a firmer and hydrated skin! Happy me!! ^_^

Achieve beautiful skin with this Sleeping Mask by using at least twice a week! Our skin gonna thank us for being a dedicated lady! Haha
