My Skincare Routine featuring Swissvita Products | with Review
Wednesday, August 9, 2017
السلام علىكم
Today I want to share my current skincare routine which I have started a month ago religiously. I have come to the phase where everything needs to be done fast; well that includes my skincare routine of course haha. #mommyproblem. I have longgg left my favourite 10-steps skincare routine hehe. no time mannn. haha. This time, my routine is the must do 3-step.
FYI, I'm collaborating with All Young Swissvita Skinlab Malaysia this time.
FB PAGE : https://www.facebook.com/swissvitamalaysia/
These are the 3 main products of my skincare routine.
For the past goood one month, since I started these products, I didn't get a single pimple/acne! really!! I don't know if external factors affect this but as I know, I was using those products.
You can check out their website and products' description here too:-

STEP 1
Cleanse
Micrite 3D All Use Cleanser Cream
Clean clean clean. It's the first vital step of a skincare routine. You need a clean base for good absorption of other skincare products later. Also, at least let you skin breathe freely from all the dirt you have on your face please! haha. This cleanser is the foam cream type that creates fine foam. it has no fragrance and is very gentle to the skin. It also leaves a clean feeling yet moisturizing. I really cannot bear with cleansers that stripped all of the oil. It will make my face feel very tight and dry -_-. So, this cleanser is good; it cleanses and moisturized the skin well at the same time. (Y)
STEP 2
Tone
Acne Solution Skin Balancing Toner
Clean clean clean. It's the first vital step of a skincare routine. You need a clean base for good absorption of other skincare products later. Also, at least let you skin breathe freely from all the dirt you have on your face please! haha. This cleanser is the foam cream type that creates fine foam. it has no fragrance and is very gentle to the skin. It also leaves a clean feeling yet moisturizing.

STEP 2
Tone
Acne Solution Skin Balancing Toner
Toner is also important to prep your base for more skincare products. It also helps balance the pH level of your facial skin after the cleanser. In fact, some toner is also meant to further clean your skin. Depending on your facial skin needs. The toner that is also cleansing can be drying to some skin type like mine nowadays. So I prefer a toner like this which just meant to carefully medically prep your skin. This toner is a milky type. You have to shake well before use. I just my palm to apply; no cotton pad. Just tap onto the skin until it's absorbed. It is a very mild toner; gentle to skin and it leaves my face feeling soft and balanced. It has no fragrance too.
STEP 3
Moisturize
Acne Solution Serum
Different people (different skin) needs different kind of moisturization. As for myself, my skin type and condition changes accordingly to the environments factors etc. On most days, I only apply this serum as moisturizer. This serum feels more like a medicine to me haha maybe because there's a hint of medicine smell as I apply it. With a few small dots, I just rub it on my face until absorbed. However it is not very moisturizing to very dry skin like mine. So on days where I feel like my skin is more dry, I will at least layer an aloe vera gel on top for an extra moisture. If it's super more dry, I will layer with a more concentrated moisturizer. Let's talk about layering products in separate entry. hehe. I love layering products, fyi! XD
Acne free skin (for now but hopefully until forever haha)! yeay hehe.

Neutrogena Deep Clean - Happy Skin 24/7
Monday, April 3, 2017
السلام عليكم
Hello!
I am the least particular about cleansers as I feel like all cleansers are equal and do good job; therefore I don't recommend spurlging on high-end cleansers. as long as your skin is double cleansed and sometimes gently scrubbed, it's clean! Also, it's not very good to have squeaky face unless your moisturizer is thick enough. moisture is the key to a healthy skin, remember?!
...and Neutrogena needs no more introduction! It's a very known brand for its affordable cleansers.
It's their deep clean range! #1 rule for a happy skin 24/7 : deep clean your face! you have no idea how gross our environment is and what it does to our skin! not to mention all those makeup we're putting.. you're so gonna regret later in your life if you don't deep clean.
No matter how lazy you are, please do not skip washing your face!!!
How to deep clean your face with Neutrogena deep clean range, in sequence!
1) Neutrogena deep clean hydrating cleansing oil to foam
you should always double cleanse your face! even if you're not wearing make up. the oil, sebum etc needs to be attracted away with oil based cleanser. that's how you're going to get rid of all those dirt that stick to your oily face.
2) Neutrogena deep clean hydrating foaming cleanser
a foaming cleanser will then help remove those excess oil and impurities underneath the sebum. how great is it that the foaming cleanser is also hydrating?! it will avoid the skin to be squeaky and dry!
3) Neutrogena deep clean blackhead eliminating daily scrub
blackheads are headaches! grr! so scrubbing is going to help you to get rid of them and clean those clogged pores. so, getting huge pores can also be slowed down (because they eventually get all huge as you age -_-) !!
I hate that sandy feeling when touching the face!! made me wanna scrub with sand paper! haha. I just need face scrub and loveeeeeeeee how this one is a daily scrub! while other scrubs are recommended to be used twice a week, this one is a very gentle yet effective enough to be used daily. cool! gotta show some love to the pores!
Texture: there's 2 type of scrub beads in the product. there are smaller fine, sand-like beads and there are the bigger ones in peach colour which are soft. The consistency is quite thin but not very runny.
Scent: refreshing and sweet smelling.
Pros: Really gentle on the skin. so I can gently scrub my face even when I have breakouts. It's quite effective too. Can really feel that my skin gets soft after scrubbing; not so sandy anymore! there's no soap so after rinse, the face doesn't get dry.
Cons: due to the very fine scrub beads, I need to use a lot of the product for a more thorough cleaning/scrubbing. so I might run out of this scrub faster huhu.
Happy deep clean -ing!
XOXO

K-BEAUTY: THE FUN IN THE PRODUCTS
Tuesday, September 6, 2016
اسلام عليكم
Hello!!
Finally another entry!! haha
It's K-beauty time baby! wootttsss!!
Even though I am in no way look korean (kuikui), I loveeee Korean make up looks waayyyy better than the western's. They are super duper great at enhancing natural beauty. Refer here for my Korean Inspired makeup look; here, I emphasized the small small steps of korean's apporach with makeup.
I have always been sooo impressed with the Korean beauty technology too. Makeup also has their own technology, I kid you not! Be it the makeup trend, skincare, packaging, products, they are all very creative!! Let's see all the korean beauty products that I own and see how weird, fun, cool and great one product can be!!!
sidenote: these are just the overall views not full reviews of the products. Full review will be in separate entries.
Lip Tattoo
This lip tattoo by blingsome is a kind of lip tint that applies like a glue and leave your lips tinted!! haha! so fun! I remember those days where I put glue on my hand than pull it after it dries like skin! did you did that toooo?!!! hahaha
see what it did to my dull, pale face!!!! Love ittttttttt!! <3
Sheet face mask
Sheet masks don't come in boring white anymore! It's wayyyyyyy better than what you think it can be! it now comes with prints! like these that I had makes me look like a panda and a cool mysterious masquerade girl while it beautify my face! woots!
They make putting on mask is not a chore making yourself pretty, instead, it's a fun activity! especially if you are having a girls time like a sleepover or something like it! the 20minutes waiting time sure will turn into a 20minutes of selfies! haha!
BB cream cushion
Koreans are very much well known with their bb cream cushion. If you never heard of BB cream cushion, it's a product whereby a cushion holds the BB cream for more-saving and better application. The specialty is at the sponge applicator which u will use while dabbing the foundation into your skin. But we cannot ignore the beautiful packaging of this BB cream cushion by Keep In Touch
What's more interesting is that the cushion's cream comes in this weird yin-yang lookalike shape haha. The white portion is the moisturizer while the brown one is the foundation, of course.
First application will sure make like you're printing your face hahah. Then watch it slowly and beautifully blends into skin while dabbing it. How fun haha.
Dual Lipstick
do you know the ombre lips trend? omg i'm head over heels with that look! see my post on ombre here. The look is great but it will require few tricky steps before you can achieve the look but now no moreeee! dual-lipstick is here! how genius. haha.
gradient-lips made easy (Y) (Y)
Lip Crayon
While this lip crayon looks literally like a pen, it behaves just like a real buncho crayon u used to use during psv period in school back then! hehe. in a good way, fyi. if you can imagine the buncho crayon, that's exactly how this lip crayon's texture is.
Highly pigmented with matte finish lips can easily be achieved as I easily fit the sleek pen-sized product in my handbag!
Brush gel liner
it's a gel liner in a pen! There's a brush and sharpener at the end of the liner pen. detachable - so, easy to clean and be used.
With the brush at the back, the liner can be blended a bit for a more subtle smoky look.
It gives you fuller but subtle lash line too. Perfect for an every-day natural-looking makeup.
Mascara
This mascara is nothing so extraordinary but the packaging and the banana lookalike brush wand. hehe. I'm really appreciating every single details it has to offer hehe. How I wish it smells like banana too! ahhahahaha :P
1 coat and I'm all satisfied with my natural by voluminized eye lashes! muahx
These Korean products' brands are mostly not available in Malaysia and the answer to where I get them from is none other than Althea! No suprise! Althea is my K-beauty products' personal shopper. See my Althea post here.
That is all for today!
Thanks for reading.
Till my next entry XOXO
