Recently there was lots of going on at home and at work, and was not able to do my blogging. At work, my own business is running an expansion, with lots of new knowledge to acquire and master with. And lots of extra clients to provide assistance to. But that's all good because it means more income ^^
At home, my dear Aunt Jenny (dad's younger sister) has recently passed away in Ipoh. It was very unexpected and her demise is much cried. Aunt Jenny was a very beautiful lady when she was young. In the early 1970s, guys in Mercedes will come to woo her at m y grandma's home ^^ I think it was Auntie Jenny that introduced me into nail polish and red lipsticks. I'll always remember her fondly..
Well, onwards to more happier stuffs, which is my beauty reviews!
YAY My
Cellnique parcel is here!
Huge box with
4 items, their
best selling ones! From
left:
- Advanced Bio Renewal Masque (Mask) RM 159 for 50g
- Soothing & Hydrating Lotion (Toner) RM 79 for 200ml
- Amino Collagen C Intense Set (Serum) RM 299 for 2x10ml
- Skin Action Sebum Gel RM 159 for 30ml
Total estimated RM
700 worth of skincare! Gals, this is a
splurge package. My advice, if
budget is a problem, try their products
one at a time. Go
try out their facial and spa
sessions, and if you really like the products and
works for you, then go to
Sasa and get those
stamps!
What is
Cellnique? Founded by Mr
Chew (electric
engineering background!), launched around
1997 in
Malaysia and later in
Singapore. Cellnique is very
agressively active in the beauty blogger
world because of their
generousity in giving out
samples for us to try before we buy. So, there was alot of good
reviews out there, let's check out
mine.
For the last 6 months I have been using these
brands of
toner.
From
left, always ^^v
- Skin Conditioner by Naris Up for 360ml - Huge bargain for this toner, because it is huge and cheap, for a toner that claims to have collagen. I wish this is a great toner for me to keep, but it isn't. My moituriser does not, I repeat DOES NOT absorb into my skin after this toner. Totally weird and annoying, because I feel like it is wasting my moituriser, and acting as a barrier. So, not a good toner.
- Acmedica by Naris Up for 150ml - Nyeh, did not stop any pimple from popping up eventhough it said this is a medicated toner. But at least it did allow my moisturiser to melt into my skin hehe
- Freshel Lotion by Kanebo for 200ml - Best toner for me this year, as I've used 2 bottles already! It can also cleanse off excess makeup and oil on my face, so its NOT just water.
What I like: The
spray cap. Most toner you need to pour it out. With this, I just spray it
straight on my clean face (with eyes
close of course ^_*). It
smell of
herbal because of the 14
plant extract ingredients. No, I did not have any allergic reaction to it. Does my
moisturiser sink into my face after
toning?
Yes, indeed.
Basically, that is what I
want most with my toner.
This is my own
test on good toner & good moisturiser. Far
left, is my clean
matte face after toning with Cellnique and moisturise with Freshel Milk Lotion. Faces going
right side, are every hour after that. No longer matte face, but
oilier and
shinier (from
8pm to
11pm). Well, could be
any reason, that my moisturiser is not hydrating enough or those 2 doesn't work well together, or something else. But in all
honesty, I just think my
face is super
oily >.<
Well, comprehensive enough
review? That's why I got to
separate these into few
parts. If you have used this
Cellnique Soothing & Hydrating Lotion, leave me a
