GARNIER MICELLAR CLEANSING WATER

Hello girls!

Today I'll be introducing the New Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water!

Good things must share!


Not sure about you girls but removing make up has always been a very troublesome thing for me. I'm sure by now if you have been an avid reader of this space, you would have known that I'm a very lazy girl by nature. I hate it MOST when I go home late after a long day at work, or after a whole night of partying that I still have to make sure I remove my make off off completely before I shower and sleep.

First you gotta use an oil based make up remover to remove your waterproof make up, then you have to use a cleanser to cleanse the oil off and lastly, a toner to rehydrate your face.....

It is an absolute CHORE for me. 





Don't you just wish you can jump right into bed and sleep sometimes?! LOL. I do~~~ 

So… Apparently the New Garnier Micellar Water claims to:

1. Remove waterproof make up
2. Cleanse, soothe and hydrate skin
3. Fragrance free

What this really means is… I get to save precious time, because I don’t have to cleanse and re-hydrate my face after removing my make-up! So anyway, I did a time test, just to see how much time I would save…

TEST #1: TIME TEST
Garnier Micellar Water VS Traditional Oil-based Make-up Remover

Here's my usual make-up removal routine!



So I timed myself removing my make-up using Garnier’s Micellar Water (right side of my face) vs traditional oil-based make-up removing routine (right side of my face).

I don't think I need to say more! Just look at how much time and trouble I can save every day! The Garnier Micellar water is an "All-In-One" product which helps to remove my waterproof make-up easily! Plus there's no need for rinsing and using a toner after, which is AWESOME for lazy people like me!

(You can see my test in the below video link: (insert video link))


Now, I went online and googled for Garnier’s Micellar Water reviews, and found A LOT of good reviews vs expensive derma brands’ Micellar Water. So… I went to try it out for myself too.

TEST #2: EFFICACY TEST
Garnier Micellar Water VS Brand X (Popular Derma Brand)







The number of cotton pads which Garnier Micellar Water used to remove the makeup on my hand is the same as Brand X (I put the same amount of remover on each cotton pad for each brand, so as to be fair)! This is really surprising for me, because it means the efficacy of Garnier’s Micellar Water is just as good as a derma brand, but the cost is actually less than half!!

I also really like the fact that it is fragrance free. Somehow fragrance free products make me feel safer using it! Haha. My complexion has gotten bad again ever since I started on my new job because of the stress, and I'm really very selective on the types of products I use on my face these days.

So far I’ve been using Garnier’s Micellar Water, and no breakouts! Proves that it is suitable even for people with sensitive skin! *thumbs up* for that!!

Lastly, did I mention that the Garnier Micellar Water is actually made in Poland and it only cost $18.90 for a MEGA 400ml size!! Crazy or what?!?!





Anyway, I did a video to prove Garnier Micellar Water’s efficiency and efficacy as well. Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3-WQRpZE3k
Go watch it!

If you’re still not convinced and do not believe what I've been raving about, go down to Guardian stores and try their testers for yourself!  




The New Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water is available exclusively in Guardian. Go try it today!

BROWTISAN

Hello!

Its beeeeeeennnnnn aaaaa longgggg timeeeee!

Today I'm back with a post for Browtisan! I've been looking around for the perfect brow embroidery salon and I couldn't be happier when Coco, the founder of Browtisan contacted me! 

To be honest, I feel that the most crucial part of every girl's make up routine is the brows, other than having a flawless complexion (which I'm still working on myself) of course! I could never ever leave my house without drawing my brows. I really feel that having a perfect set of brows makes or break how you look on that particular day! 

I've had eyebrow embroidery done before but it's all faded now because I haven't been going for my touch ups which I'm guilty of! So like I said, most of it are gone by now and I'm back to drawing them myself, which is seriously a pain in my ass. I could never ever master the skill of drawing them perfectly everyday! Like hair, there are the good and bad days. Sometimes I draw it so nicely, sometimes I screw them all up. 

Sigh.... wish I was born with perfect brows!!

It's all good now cause Browtisan made life so much easier for me!






Arrived at Browtisan and feeling extremely excited~~!! My brows was drawn on pretty well that day if I may say so myself! But it's not always like that!! And wait till you see the "draft" that Coco did before the embroidery! 



Numbing cream on! 


One side drawn by coco and the other side is my natural brows...... O.M.G would you just look at it? Her skills makes me feel so amateur-ish and makes me feel like a joke....... LOL. This picture also stresses on my point of how important of a role eyebrow plays in your make up routine! Imagine me going out with my brows looking like that!! >.<


Close up!! It's perfect already! Look at the precision and strokes! This is drawn on by like a normal brow pencil....


Both sides drawn!

It's sooooo nice I want it on PERMANENTLY! 

Did I mention that Coco has almost 20 years of experience in brow embroidery industry and I knew I was in complete safe hands. I left everything for her to decide! The colour, the shape..... I'm quite an "anything" girl so I don't have much opinions on everything la. I just knew I wanted fuller brows and to never have to draw my brows again myself! LOL.


And we're done!! ...... Kidding............ I can't remember what's this! But I think it acts like a dye? Not too sure.... omg...


Anyways here's the final result!! LOOK AT IT!!

The whole process was totally painless. I know we all have different pain threshold but it is really very bearable. I could almost fall asleep! 


TADAHHHH~~~ Is it natural or what?! I'm so pleased with the results! 


This is just one of the best decision I've made in my life! 

Lucky for those who are born with full and defined brows. But for us, the not so lucky ones... eyebrow embroidery is really the way to go! It has saved me sooooo much time from my make up routine! 

Thank you so much to Coco and Browtisan team for making me 美美!!

BIOSKIN KOGEN HERB TEA

Hello girls!

Something exciting for all of you once again! I'll be embarking on a 6 months journey with BioSkin

Truth to be told, I was VERY skeptical at first. After my terrible breakout last year, I'm extremely wary of new treatments and using different products that I'm not familiar with on my face. Took me awhile to make this decision but I'm glad I did because.... look at ma face now!!



You can read more on BioSkin's P2X Acne Skin treatment about it here! This was the treatment I did with them!

I've never felt so comfortable with my bare skin before and I've been going to work like this for the past 1 month and I AM LOVING IT!! I keep getting praises for my brighter and clearer complexion now too! Makes me soooo happy! A flawless complexion also means a better canvas for putting on make up. No more bumpy acne scars!! 

Will talk more about my treatment with BioSkin in my next few post! 

Today... I'm introducing the Kogen Herb Tea!



Made from 54 types organic vegetables, fruits, weeds and yeast, Kogen Herb Tea is a fermented herbal tea enzyme powder that helps in detoxification, stomach gas reduction and constipation, achieving fast and effective slimming results.

Benefits


  • Inner Cell Purification
  • Better Complexion
  • Anti-aging
  • Improve Overall Digestive System
  • Total Slimming





Been drinking it every night before I sleep for 5 days now... Not sure how different I feel? Probably the placebo effect BUT I'm definitely eating lesser for the past week? Just don't get hungry as often anymore! 

The tea is really quite tasteless with a slightttt tinge of herbal-ish taste! But strangely... I like it! Taste kinda like Japanese Green Tea to me! 

Benefits of Enzyme for slimming

Digestive enzymes, when taken with or without meals, may boost your weight loss efforts by improving digestion and immune function, decreasing inflammation and speeding up recovery and repair.

Enzymes occur naturally in raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and other foods. Supplementing with additional digestive enzymes may help to replace what you lose with age. Better digestion leads to faster weight loss, In addition, enzymes may reduce gastrointestinal discomforts like gas, bloating or nausea following meals. Despite the fact that whole foods naturally contain enzymes, many people do not get enough because cooking foods destroys most of the living enzyme content. Even individuals who eat a diet high in raw, fresh fruits, vegetables and nuts may benefit from enzyme supplementation. The aging body makes fewer of these crucial proteins, derailing healthy digestion and impacting your weight loss efforts.


Our skin will naturally benefit from consuming Kogen Detox Tea. If you're working toward more radiant and glowing skin, you might be surprised to know that the answer lies more in your digestive tract rather than on how much you're spending on creams and cleansers. If we look a bit closer at how our digestive system works, it begins to make a lot of sense. Among other functions, our digestive system is the main place where we absorb beauty nutrients from our foods, as well as the main place where we dispel toxins through elimination. If the digestive system isn't working optimally, breakouts, eczema, redness and dull skin can ensue. 


Let us all work towards a healthier and more radiant skin that comes from within and not solely from cosmetics! 



Thank you Matilda and Bioskin!!!

FILLERS!

HARLOW!! 

Back with a post for my favourite DR SM YUEN - Atlas Medical Laser and Aesthetics Clinic

I don't mean to praise them over and over again all the time but I truly love Atlas with all my heart! They are literally my fairy godmother. Fulfilling all my wishes! Helping me with my acne problems a year ago, botox and laser! 

Read previous post here, here, here and here.

This time around, I did FILLERS!!! I've always wanted to try them out just because... I'm vain. LOL. Just wanted to see how I would look like with a sharper nose bridge laaaaa! Hehe. And boy am I sooooo glad with my "new" nose! 


Here's how my nose look before! There's this weird dent......... Hmmmm..... LOL.


 With numbing cream on! Haha.


And this is how it looks after! 

I really love it!!! I mean I don't hate any of my features but I've just always wondered how I would look if my nose bridge was sharper! My features are quite flat and 2 dimensional and now my side profile just looks so much nicer! At least I think so la.... Haha. Actually, everyone loves my "new nose" Even my dad said I look much better! -.- 

I guess I kinda look the same from the front and that's awesome! Don't really want myself to look extremely different! 

This was me RIGHT after the fillers....


It seems a little too much but don't worry because it takes about 1 week or so to really see the "final" results. 

Fillers can last up to a year depending on individuals and how your body reacts to it. Pain wise.... I would say it is pretty bearable considering my threshold for pain is SUPER low. I was whimpering a little but still bearable la...... I would maybe rate it like a 5/10. My menses cramps are like a 9/10 for me..... Hahahahaha.

Also, don't worry if you don't really like how it looks because you can remove the fillers anytime and it is "mouldable" LOL. Is there even such a word.....?? But ya, Dr Yuen will make sure the end results is perfect! 

Here's me on Friday for ShopEverydayPeople's photoshoot!


I'd rate my nose a 10/10 if I may say so myself... LOL.

SO YAY!!! Just in time to look good for Chinese New Year!

Do book an appointment with them now as they are having some promotions for Botox and Fillers!



Mention 'Ding Xuan' for special rates okay!

Barely Naked Skins

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the long hiatus! 

Back with aspnaking new advert for Barely Naked - Your leading vendor of design foils for your electronic devices!!

The whole process of ordering and sticking the foils on are really easy and fuss free too! I'm a relatively "chor lor" (rough) girl and I'm very bad with these kinda things. Took me about 3 tries peeling them off and sticking them back again but because the quality of the foils are sooooo good, there were no traces of errors at all!

Not to mention about their impeccable service! It was such a pleasure working with them!


Simply choose the model of your phone / tablets / laptop / nails

MALISSA K.I.S.S

Hello everyone! 

Remember this post I did for KISS SKINCARE here?!

Guess what? 

K.I.S.S Skincare Thailand would be having its trademark change of K.I.S.S Skincare to Malissa K.I.S.S in order to enable the intellectual right protection in South East Asia region.

 www.KissSG.com will be following the company policy in which will be effective immediately.


The current Whitening Cream Mask will also be replaced with the new White Me Up Sleeping Pack product which will be improved on the higher frequency of use and skin balancing system.


I'm personally a HUGE fan of KISS SKINCARE and I've been using it once a week for about 4 months now.....


Prior to this blog post, I've already been trying out the new Malissa KISS white me up sleeping pack... call me crazy but every time I wake up in the morning after applying it the night before, I find that my pores are less visible. I usually apply it the night before I have a photoshoot so my make up has a more "flawless" finish.


I also love how the ingredients used in Malissa KISS is au naturel.


My skin has definitely improved and it's all because I have been going for regular facials (we'll save that for another day!) and because of all these awesome products I've been using. 

Ever since the major breakout on my face earlier this year, I've been extremely selective on the products I put on my face. Malissa KISS is definitely one that I strongly recommend!!

** I only apply it about once a week or if I have any important event the next day because the cream itself slightly on the oily side and I feel that applying once a week is more than sufficient! **



Now my readers can quote "TwiggzKISS" during checkout for a $5 discount in a single receipt! 

Good luck on your journey to a more beautiful skin and flawless complexion!
