I have really sensitive skin so i am a bit wary when i tried this product. The reason why i ordered this is that i read sooo many rave reviews of it on the internet.
I don’t have a lot of wrinkles, but i do have visible lines near my cheeks (probably due to sagging skin). Nevertheless i just went for this and man was i surprised! Firstly it came in little capsules so it is easy to apply and carry (especially if i am travelling).It looks like Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Capsulesand work like but is still half its price! Moroever it is not so rich so it works great for me.
How i used this product is this: First i cleansed my face and toned it. Afterthat i will apply the Cindy crawford wrinkle smoothing capsules all over my face-dabbing it with my fingers. I will spritz on evian waters and pad it. I will use this only at night before sleep, or as an intensive mask. I find it really useful too when i am on red eye flights. After applying this on flight, i will wake up the next morning with dewy looking skin. Nobody would have guessed that i just came from a night flight.Awesome. Price: US$36.95.Click here to purchase
The one thing i like about this bb cream is its coverage. The difference between most bb cream and foundation is that the latter can give cover up blemishes much better. However for the SKIN79 Super+ Beblesh Balm BB Cream it works like a foundation but minus the pore clogging. Moreover it also acts lke a sun block, moisturiser and anti-wrinkle serum. Really convenient. When you first pump out the bb cream, it may look a bit thick, but no worries as the bb cream will eventually blend in and looks really natural.Read other’s review here

I have acne prone skin and I must say ettusais has one of the best range of acne prone skin products which had helped me solved my acne problems over the years.
This is a great product that acts like a softener so to prepare your skin before they absorb in all the good stuff like serums. I think it sound very logical-clean your skin, tone it to ensure it is really clean, then soften your skin layer to prepare it for moisturiser. Acne prone products can be a bit harsh and “oil stripping” which could result your skin to be extremely dry. This product sorts of balances the whole system. I love it!

Made with fine corn powder to minimise pores optically,Dr. Young Pore Eraser HD Powderwas developed with the aim of ensuring sebum control without clogging the pores.
It is rich in organic herb extracts and contains essential oils, such as lemon, grapefruit and rose, to brighten and mositurise the skin.
Though not a bb cream product, this ultra-fine powder helps to create a flawless finish. The powder appears solid white in the container but it is completely colorless and sheer when dusted onto the skin. A small amount is all that is needed. God for using as a last step on top of any other base items and bb creams as it increases the oil control slightly. The petite container makes it handy to take along for quick touch-ups.
The one thing i don’t quite like about it is the staying power as you need to reapply it constantly.Especially since i have oily skin, i would need to blot my face before i touch up which is pretty time consuming.I think this is more a sebum control powder than pore eraser like the name suggest.Nevertheless, it is still a good last step for your make up regime to get a real matte look.Price US$32.

Check out this video clip on how to use the Dr Young Pore eraser HD powder. It is in korean but it is very easy to understand.
La Prairie has lots of great products. This is definitely one of them. Normally after exfoliation, you will feel that you face is scrubbed totally clean yet a bit dehydrated. However, for this exfoliate product is totally unique in that it scrub the face totally clean in a very gentle way (that even for very sensitive skin like mine there is no redness at all). After washing off the scrub, there is a thin layer of moisturizer on your face which is neither greasy nor sticky. Rather it makes you feel that your face is protected by this moisture film and keeps your face hydrated at all time. Best of all, your face will looks all dewy and pump up after the scrub.
Honestly speaking, this is an expensive scrub hence i will normally buy this at Duty free shop in airport. Alternatively you can buy this on Amazon. It cost US$57.95 which is about S$72. Even when i buy it at the airport, it cost about S$90 so it is quite a steal to get it from Amazon.Click here to purchase
This is another testimony that good products don’t have to be expensive. The Herbal Essences Shampoo really works great. My frizzle hair tames after the wash and it feels so silky and soft. The only reason i did not give it a 5 star is that it is not organic a. My suspicions is that they must have use quite a lot of chemicals or artificial ingredients for such a miracle results. Of course i maybe wrong, for after checking the labels it seems like they uses normal ingredients.
Besides the wondrous results, this shampoo also smells heavenly. It has a great mandarin smell which really makes the shampooing experience a great one.Read others reviews here
This 16ml tube comes with a an applicator made of zamak (an alloy of zinc,aluminum and magnesium) which is supposed to cool your eyes with all these natural propoerties. Moreover, it has an ergonomic design applicator so you can put on the cream effortlessly.
Initially i am a bit skeptical as i am a bit worried that the pulling and rubbing of the cream on my eyes will worsened the wrinkles (or create it). Moreover, i think it is crazy to apply this to both your eyes and lips (imagine you apply to this after you ate a plate of char kway teow and then your eyes! horrors!) hence i bought two for separate use (i actually label it so i won’t get mixed up)
The cream gives a cooling feeling when you apply it which is a real treat for tired eyes. Apparently after 6 weeks of use you should have more defined lips and wrinkles smoothed out.This is possible due to the active ingredients: of Pro-Xylane which are made from xylose, a sugar found abundantly in beech trees and known to stimulate the production of molecules responsible for defending the skin against water loss. It also contain the Proteic Gf which are vegetable proteins extracted from the grains of a vegetable plant found in India. As with all vichy products, it also contains the vichy spring thermal water.
My eyes does have a less puffy looks and the wrinkles looks less obvious. I think this product works better for the eyes than the lips. I think for an eye cream this is a great product as it cools and moisturise at the same time. A nice treat for tired eyes.
I am not a SK II fan, but i really LOVE this SK II Cellumination Mask-In Lotion! It is touted as a mask which you can apply for 24hours.
You not only gets your skin hydrated when you apply this, it also whitens and exfoliate at the same time.All these allows you to have dewy skin after each application.
As it is highly concentrated, this product has the effectiveness of a mask yet has a texutre like a whitening toner.It can penetrate the whitening essence into one’s skin in less than 15 seconds and keeps your skin hydrated for at least 12 hours.It also helps to repair the damages due to the polluted air and UV rays.
To apply, put about 1ml on the palm of your hand and rubbed before you applied on your cleansed face. You can pat to ensure that the lotion is fully absorbed.
Although the bottle seems small, just a little of the lotion goes a long way. Apply after the clear lotion and your skin will feel soft and hydrated! You can get the travel size especially during travelling where you often lacks the time to do mask. It does feel as if I used one of those sheet mask but without the long wait for the same results. You just need to apply and you can even goes to sleep. It feels like those sleeping mask but having triple effects of it.
There are many body sculpting lotion that i had tried, and after so many trials, i still stick to this one, Clarins high definition body lift.
When i first tried out this product, i am a bit doubtful. Unlike most body sculpting lotion, this product is not sticky at all. Moreover like all clarins products, it had a very pleasant smell. Hence it allows me to want to apply this diligently every day as instructed for about 3 weeks.Initially i did not notice much difference. However when i was trying to fit into an old pair of jeans that was too tight for me, i actually manage to squeeze in which totally stunned me. I do have friends who say it did not work for them. But I believe if you do the work (message daily) it will help to reduce the hips and thighs area. I was trying to find out why this product might works and apparantly they have this active microspheres that melt into the skin upon contact. I guess this is why it works, but i also believe you need to a lot of massaging of it to get the effects.
Recently i noticed that my mum seems to be have better and glowing skin. My sister think so too hence after our piles of compliments, my mum grins happily and told us about this beauty system Your Beauty System Personalized Anti-Aging Skin Care, that her friends had recommended her to use. Apparently even Miss America uses it. Anyway it is a whole system and the best part i guess it that it is customized. Hence you can choose from an array of products for say oily skin with mainly wrinkles problems. According to my mum, you has to use this religiously for at least 4 months before you can see any results. Moreover the price is very reasonable, the whole starter kit is about US$39.99 and the whole system is US$99.99. I think if you want to have youthful looking skin, you can really try this. Although i don’t have that much wrinkles problems, i did order one set for sensitive skin with acne problems. I just started using it and it is quite decent. My skin feels much more hydrated. The only downside is that the medical smell it has. Hopefully by starting early i can delay aging. Not sure if that works, but i guess it is always good to start early. To order click here
