2016 Top 10 Favs!

First of all, I would like to wish all my precious readers a very Happy New Year! Welcome to the year 2017!!

In this post, I would like to go through my top 10 favorites from the year 2016 which some I have reviewed on. I have too many favs but I tried my best to bring in my most fav products for the year 2016 and these are the ones that made it to the top 10! Let's get on with it shall we!



Item no.10 - Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water


The Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water manage to make its way up to the top 10! I've been using this for a month and it's refreshing and hydrates the skin after using. This cleansing water does not contain any perfume which is suitable for sensitive skin too. On the plus side, it is pretty affordable too! Definitely worth trying.

Item no.9 - Petitfee Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch


The skin around our eyes are the most sensitive area! Wrinkles or fine lines usually appears around the eye area first compared to other areas. The Hydrogel Eye Patch from Petitfee is currently my fav. I like keeping it in the fridge and use it twice a week as it helps to sooth and hydrates my eye area. It is very affordable too. It has 60 pieces so you can use it for 30x.

Item no.8 - Freeman Honeydew & Chamomile sleeping mask


I saw this while I was walking around Watsons. The first item from Freeman I've used was the cucumber peel off mask that my friend sent me from the states and I love it so I decided to try out it's sleeping mask too. I didn't have high expectation when I tried on this product but surprisingly it's super hydrating and light. It smells great because of the honeydew. I usually use this when I'm too lazy or busy to put on mask so wearing this before I go to bed is an alternative choice.

Item no.7 - Neogen Green Tea Cleansing Foam


I absolutely love this cleanser cause it pumps out foam which is super convenient! It also has green tea leaves at the bottom of the bottle. However it is my no.7th fav because it seems like I run out of cleanser very fast. I've only used it for a month and I'm left with a quarter solution and the dispenser doesn't reach the bottom. Nonetheless, it's a great cleanser.

Item no.6 - White head remover (Vietname or Thailand product Im not sure)


To be honest I have no idea where this products originated from but it's seen selling in cube stalls in the mall. It removes white head and black heads just like the normal strips except this comes in liquid form and a separate piece of paper for it. My aunt told me it's a great product and I didn't believe her at first. However, I love it after using it once. It literally removes all the white and blackhead better than those expensive nose strips. You gotta see it to believe it!


 Yes, it's gross! I KNOW!! LOL!

Item no.5 - Mask Sheet from The Face Shop


The sales lady told me it was new in faceshop when I went to renew my membercard so I decided to get a few and I love it. It has a thin cotton sheet with lots of essence. Mask sheet is a MUST in your daily life! LOL! I use it twice a week.

Item no. 4 - April Skin Magic Cushion 2.0


If yall have been following my blog, you'll know that I recently started using this. It's been a few weeks and so far I'm loving the coverage of this BB Cushion. Although I'm not a fan of the cushion or puff but I still love using this when I'm in a rush. Definitely worth trying this item. To check out the review for this product. CLICK HERE!

Now, let's move on to my top 3 favorite product for the year 2016! These are the 3 products that I have to carry with me every time I travel. These are the must item in my everyday life!

Top no.3 - Nature Republic Super Aqua Max Watery Toner


I've used different kinds of toner before this and nothing seems to be working for me. It either cause me breakouts, enlarged pores or redness but this toner is not your typical water liquid toner. This toner seems to be more of a gel type but turns into liquid once applied on skin. It comes in a glass bottle too and I'm loving it! LOL! It is not that pricey, smells good and it's very hydrating.

Top no.2 - Miss En Scene Perfect Repair Hair Serum


I have been bleaching my hair and coloring it since I left high school so my hair is a tiny bit, well not tiny bit but VERY MESSED UP! It's dry and split ends everywhere and not even treatment can help it. So I decided to get this hair serum to see whether it works to keep my hair shiny and bouncy and yes! It really works to keep my hair less frizzy and looking healthier. It smells great too! So Yes! Whenever I travel, this has to be in my pouch!

Top no.1 - Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence


Lastly, my fav item for the year 2016 which I cannot survive without it the Missha's time revolution essence. I have been using this essence for a year now and it does wonders to my skin. It helps with my breakouts, dry skin and acne scars. It's a little bit pricey but it's definitely worth including this into your daily routine. This pretty much helps to clear my skin, it's like magic! LOL! You can also include a few drops into your foundation in the morning for a dewy look and it also keep your skin hydrated throughout the day. 

*

There you have it my top 10 favorite product for the year 2016! I've been using all the above products for a while now and I definitely love them all. Once again I would like to wish all my loyal and beautiful/handsome readers out there a Happy New Year and 2017 will be a great year!

January - March 2016 Favorites!

It's the time of the year! 1st beauty quarter has finally come to an end! IT'S 1st QUARTER FAVORITES!!! There are a few thing that I've fallen in love with and I can't survive without them! Let's go!

Yep! That's right, not only I love beauty products, I love candles and Ipad games too! What I have here is Yankee Candle, Modeling Mask, ePure Jelly Mask, Foot Mask, Hair Treatment and Happy Mall Story. 

Aloe Water

I love love love love loveeeee candles!! I love scented candles especially the ones from Yankee partially it's cause of the jar too. I recently purchased another one and it's the Red Raspberry and I love it!

As you can see, this one here is halfway gone as I've been lighting it almost everyday. With the current hazy situation here, the candle gets rid of the smell quickly. I can't really describe the smell of Aloe water but it has the fruity-fresh scent. It's works better than air fresher. Pretty worth the investment.

Cost - $20+ - $40+

 Lindsay Modeling Mask. 

Finally Hermo is selling it! I've been hearing great things about Korea's Rubber mask so I decided to get some. If you don't know what Hermo is, check out my post on Hermo HERE

I love this mask so much! It's cooling and super moisturizing but it is super hard to get it at the right consistency. It comes in powder form so you gotta mix it with water to get a paste.

I'll be doing a separate review on this mask soon. Be sure to check it out! 

ePure Jelly Mask

I've posted on snapchat numerous times on how much I love jelly mask! Previously I posted a review on Annie's Way Jelly mask HERE and this time it's the ePure Jelly Mask. It brightens up your skin like magic and minimizes your pores just like that! You can get it at Hermo too! Check it out and lemme know what you think!

Obsidian Silk Treatment

As you all know, I'm always coloring my hair and not once I have natural hair colour since I ended Secondary 5. Ever since I got out of school, I've been dying my hair since then and it's pretty damaged. For the new year I bleached and dyed my hair and now it's super dried up. Recently my hair stylist introduced me this product cause I'm always too busy to visit her for hair treatment. LOL. 

I love it so much! Not only it make my hair super soft, it smells great too! Totally recommend it to those who has damaged and weak hair!

Happy Mall Story

Lastly! No this is not a beauty product. This game is pretty much keeping me busy the entire week! I'm addicted to it! LOL. It's pretty fun collecting coins, building floors, bringing in new shop and etc! Be sure to check it out, it's available in the App Store for Apple Users~

I guess that's it for my 1st quarter favorite list! Not much going on, but be sure to check out the next quarter favorites which will I'll be doing on the end of July.

[TUTORIAL] Veet Facial Waxing Strips.

Hellooooo everybody!! So, today I will be posting up something different. Instead of a review, I will be doing a tutorial today! I'm sure not everybody know how to do everything without googling HOW-TO~ So I'm here to rescue all you beautiful people out there who are dying to know How-To-Use facial waxing strips~


I will be using Easy Ready to use waxing strips from VEET. They have a wide range of hair removal product to choose from such as waxing strips for face or body and cream type. It depends on which type you prefer. For facial hair removal and my legs, I prefer the waxing strip and for my arm, I prefer the cream type. 

Type of hair removal products available for VEET.

So, inside the box contains 20 wax strips and 4 perfect finish wipes. 

This is how the facial strips looks like, it is smaller as compared to the body wax strips. It is the sheer butter and berry range for Normal Skin. If you have dry skin, feel free to choose the other range according to your skin condition. 

STEP 1!
-Make sure the area you are waxing is clean, free from oily residue and dry. If your skin is oily or wet, the wax may not stick or you may apply a gentle amount of powder onto the skin before applying the wax. It helps the wax to stick onto the hair better.

STEP 2!
-Before peeling the strip apart, warm up the wax by rubbing the strips in between your hand. This helps to warm up the wax for easy application. 

STEP 3!
-Slowly peel the wax strips apart as seen in the picture above. Leave one aside and apply one of the strip to the area of your choice. When applying, make sure to rub it according to the SAME direction of hair growth. 

STEP 4!
-Be ready to pull! If it's your first time waxing, it may hurt a little OR maybe a lot for some people. Now, use one hand to hold onto your skin tightly, and pull the waxing strip on a OPPOSITE direction from your hair growth.

-Example picture of what I am talking about.
- First picture, if your hair is growing in the direction towards right, apply the wax strip and rub it towards the right according to the direction of your hair growth.

-Second picture, hold onto the skin on the right side and pull gently making sure your skin is tight. Now grab onto the waxing strip with your other hand and pull towards the left in a fast motion. DO NOT pull gently and the would not work.  

On the strip itself it also shows you how to use it.


STEP 5!
-Repeat for other area until you are satisfied with all the hair removal.

STEP 6!

- With the Perfect Finish Wipes, use that to remove any excess wax residue left on your skin. If you do not like to use the wipes included in the box, you can always remove the excess wax with baby oil or Olive Oil, it works the same way.

*It may hurt for some people and if you see tiny dots of blood coming out from your pores, don't worry, its just a light injuring from pulling hair away from the roots. Just wipe it off with a clean warm towel. You may want to do it at night before bed so that it allows your skin to heal overnight. 

After waxing, it depends on your speed of hair growth, for me it usually last around 3-4 weeks before I wax again!

You can get the waxing strips or cream from any drug store or department store at a affordable price.

 Have fun waxing! I'll see yall in my next blog post~ Feel free to drop me any questions in my email (KimmyLoo1212@gmail.com), FACEBOOK or INSTAGRAM~~
