Visible pores in the T-Zone area which reflects strongly in close-up photos,

Complexion appears more matte and shine free, pores are reduced,

skin is smoother to the touch!

Smooths over open pores like a charm! This newest addition to Dr. Young's Anti-Pore line does wonders and i'm hooked! Recently the condition of my

[Sponsored Review] Hada Labo Retinol Lifting and Firming Lotion

2011-11-29T19:44:00.001+08:00

Hello Lovelies~

As promised, I'll be reviewing a sponsored product today that

combats against and reduces wrinkles + gives you baby smooth skin! (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ

Introducing the...

Hada Labo Retinol Lifting and Firming Lotion from
Hada Labo’s Lifting and Firming Range! (◐ o ◑ )

The new range of products from Hado Labo stays true to its
PERFECT X SIMPLE brand philosophy-
using only the finest and purest ingredients without
unnecessary addictives, colourants, alcohol, fragrances and mineral oils! (*°∀°)

This toner evens skin texture with retinol vitamin a that reduces

fine lines and wrinkles, collagen that improves skin elasticity for

firmer and more lift in your skin, and super hyaluronic acid that

instantly locks in moisture for intense hydration! ('∀'●)♡

To give that youthful bounce on the skin, take the extra step to
gently pat on Hada Labo retinol lifting + firming essence.
A powerful skin regenerating essence , it protect against skin-
aging free radicals and improves skin elastin fibre content for that ' springy' feel.

Not 1, or 2, but 3 Anti-Aging Ingredients contained
to effectively improve your skin's condition! （●´∀｀）ノ♡

Retionol Vitamin A
+
Collagen
+
Super Hyaluronic Acid~

Lifting + Firming~

(PSST the panda bag in the background very the cute right right!)

back of the product label~

ALWAYS ALWAYS REMEMBER TO CHECK THE EXPIRY DATES

OF ANY PRODUCTS THAT YOU ARE PURCHASING!

Made in Japan~! The bottle contains 170ml of the product
which can surely last you for a few months with daily usage!

how the product looks like when dispensed! （〃・・〃）
A thick sticky and slightly runny texture that is semi transparent and yellowish~

just discovered how to smile to make my chin look sharper MUAHAHAHAHA

though there's not much difference lol ♡＾▽＾♡

Verdict:

Texture: 7/10

Was using the Garnier Skin Naturals Light Milky Lightening Dew Toner

(I know right, what a long product name whatthefish?! trololol)

as my daily toner before testing out this product.

By comparison, the Hado Labo's Retinol Lifting and Firming Lotion

is definitely less stickier to the touch. (o⌒．⌒o)

However the texture of the product is still quite thick and just one drop

would be sufficient for the whole face,

do not apply too much of the product as after a few hours it will become oily

Moisturising Power: 8/10

I personally feel that the content is more to the rich side for my young skin,

with the collagen factors and such. thus I recommend

to apply this product if you really do have visible wrinkles

you wish to combat against and get rid off. else, I for one might skip this product

and go for Hada Labo's Super Hyaluronic Moisturizing Lotion

from their other range, which is more suitable for younger skin in my opinion.

Smell: 8/10

has a light medical-ish smell. |(￣3￣)|

can't really pinpoint it smells like but it definitely

would not put you off from using the product~

Overall: 8/10~

not my favourite toner thus far, as i recommend this product for

matured skin to effectively get the most out of what this product has to offer!

For your info:

The whole range of Hada Labo Lifting and Firming line:

Hada Labo Retinol Lifting and Firming Lotion SG$25.90

Hada Labo Retinol Lifting + Firming Essence SG$34.90

Hada Labo Retinol Lifting and Firming Milk SG$25.90

Hada Labo Retinol Lifting + Firming Cream SG$28.90

Hada Labo Retinol Lifting + Firming Mask SG$23.90 for 4 masks!

[Sponsored Review] Orange and Mango Mentholatum Mogitate Kajitsu Lip Balm

2011-11-26T14:53:00.000+08:00

Hello lovelies~

Today I'm going to review the ORANGE AND MANGO

Mentholatum Mogitate Kajitsu Lip Balm~!

Mentholatum is the #1* Bestselling Lipbalm Brand in Japan,

“Mojitate” means “Fresh” and “Kajitsu” means “Fruits” in Japanese.

This “Juicy” lipbalm comes in five different fruit mixes for

you to take your pick: Strawberry, Grape and Berry,

Orange & Mango, White Peach and Lemon and Lime.

The Mogitate Kajitsu Lip Balm series is made with Fresh Fruit Juice which

contains essential minerals and vitamins!

It is also made with Honey, which heals and renews the lips as well~

+ UV PROTECTION! *damaging sun rays begone!*

Mentholatum~

let thy pictures do the talking!

(psst! how do you find the colourful backgrounds used for this review?

distracting or interesting?)

#1 in Japan!

how the back of the packaging looks like~

Verdict

Smell: 10/10

IT SMELLS SO BLOODY NICE!!! THE ORANGE AND MANGO ONE

SMELLS LIKE ORANGE GUMMY SWEETS!!! the kind that is sprinkled with sugar~

*lips like sugar*

seriously can't stop myself from smelling the lip balm from time to time LOL

it kinda calms me down AHAHAHA

I can say that it's the best smelling lip balm I have come across so far~

Texture: 9/10

Doesn't have an oily feeling, more of a waxy texture, glides on very smoothly upon application, thumbs up!

Moisturizing Level: 8/10

Has a slight tingly effect upon application.

I like the fact that the lip balm also contains other moisturising boosters such
as Squalane, Grape Seed Oil, Vitamins A and E~

FACT OF THE DAY: Squalane is easily absorbed,

and is similar to the natural oil on our skin. It is extracted from plants and is a highly

prized Japanese supplement. Squalane helps to reduce the wrinkles caused by

ageing and sun damage. Grape Seed Oil helps to repair the skin. Vitamin A and E

are antioxidants that reduces the ageing of the lips, and give them a healthy shine~!

However I do kinda wish that these lip balms comes with the stronger minty feeling like

the Lip Ice series (also from Mentholatum) upon application

If it has a stronger minty effect, I'll definitely give a 10/10 for this section!

Overall: 8/10~!!!

Giving it an 8 BECAUSE OF THE WONDERFUL SMELL~~~~!!!

Plus liking the fact that the lip balm is made from real fruits and

honey to effectively nourish my lips and make them oh-‐so-‐kissable!

The Mentholatum Mojitate Kajitsu lipbalms retails at $5.90

each exclusively at all Watsons stores~! Go try your favourite flavour

and let me know how you find it~~~!!!

next up: sponsored review on something that lifts and firms your skin

to combat against signs of ageing! do stay tuned~

TILL THE NEXT,

XOXO!!!

Geo Mimi Cappuccino Brown review + Mini haul

2011-11-22T22:51:00.002+08:00

Hello lovelies~
HOPE IT HAS BEEN A FULFILLING DAY/WEEK/MONTH
FOR YOU LOVELIES SO FAR~ (*≧m≦*)
it's been awhile, I apologise for the slow updates
due to my recent hectic weeks ＼(＠O＠)／
(which somewhat explains why my photo is upside down trololol)

today i'll be reviewing Geo Mimi in Cappuccino Brown 15mm (Cafe Series) WMM-600
and also a short post on some cute and CHEAP
(must caps lock "cheap" because I have a built in antenna *self proclaim* for bargains)
stuff i recently purchased~

have done quite a bit of shopping here and there these few weeks,
will update more of my haul worthy items in my
upcoming posts, please stay tuned! (♥ó㉨ò)ﾉ♡

without further ado...
presenting my review on
Geo Mimi in Cappuccino Brown
15mm (Cafe Series) WMM-600!
｡*:★(´・ω・人・ω・`)｡:゜★｡

peektures of how the bottle casings looks like!

How the lenses looks like~

c-c-c-c-close ups! (((＠°▽°＠)八(＠°▽°＠)))
the lens patterns are reminiscent of a cup of cappuccino with swirly latte art,
which explains the name of the lenses range : Cafe Series~

a picture of the lenses when worn with light makeup
(just simple black eyeliner, no lashes)!
*inserts typical act cute puffer fish pouty face*

ULTRA MAN CLOSE UP! （*＾ω＾）人（＾ω＾*）
THESE ARE 15MM WHICH MAKES MY EYES LOOK SOMEWHAT ALIEN LIKE
~you're so supersonic~

Verdict:

Comfort: 6/10

These lenses are very drying on the eyes after 4 hours of wear,

due to the large enlargement ring and diameter of these 15mm lenses.

When worn, I constantly feel that there's something stuck in my eyes,

(you know that irritating bugging feeling when dirt enters your eyes?)

thus...I conclude that these lenses are not a good fit.

lenses with smaller diameters are definitely more comfortable!

so if you prefer comfort over enlargement, don't go for these lenses!

Colour: 5/10

These lenses are dark brown in colour, which blends in perfectly with my pupils.

It's 90% similar to the lens design of EOS Max Gold Black when worn!

Goes well with light eyemakeup~ └(^o^ )Ｘ( ^o^)┘

however, the latte art patterns on the lenses DOES NOT SHOW UP

AT ALL ON MY PUPILS. (。･д･)ﾉﾞ so be warned, if you have

Asian dark brown pupils like me,

don't expect the patterns to show up on your eyes at all. ヾ(´￢｀)ﾉ

these lenses are perfect for those who wants an enlarging dolly eye effect

but doesn't want other to notice that they are wearing coloured cosmetic lenses!

go for these lenses if you prefer a very natural yet, dolly look! (＾○＾)オ(＾▽＾)ハ(＾０＾)ツ～

Enlargement: 9/10

SUPERRRRR ENLARGING!!! makes my eyes look super huge

i do not recommend these lenses for contact lens virgins because

the size of the lenses is enough to be a pain in the ass. ヽ(´Д｀)人(´Д｀)人(´Д｀)ノ

Overall:7/10!

if only it were more comfortable to wear, and if the latte art patterns were more vivid

instead of blending in with my pupils completely

*inserts disappointed face*

if I were to choose, I'll repurchase the EOS Max Gold Black ones instead of these lenses

as EOS is more comfortable in my point of view. GEO lenses are slightly thicker~

now onto my recent purchases!

MY NEW UBER CUTE AND CHIO (self proclaim that they are uber cute and chio)
FLORAL LEATHER/ SUEDE SHOELACE BOOTIES~
SUPER LOVE THEM TO THE MAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (ﾉ´∀｀*)ﾉ

even though they were one size smaller than what I was used to wearing,
i still got them because...

IT'S SELING AT A 70%+ DISCOUNT AT ONLY SGD$9.90
OMGWTFBBQ RIGHT!!! (((*°▽°*)八(*°▽°*)))♪
like seriously where to find these kind of quality shoes at such a outrageous sale price?
thats why i HAD to grab it before it was gone~

lovely when paired with spring floral girly outfits~
I like to pair them with socks teehee
(as with my other shoes. i have a huge socks fetish)

even though they hurt my toes a lil bit but i don't care~ no pain, no gain!

lavender feather earrings~ (just wished they came without the singular beads.
those beads looks like they belong to an auntie's bracelet trololol)

pastel pink feather earrings~

AND GUESS WHAT...
both of them are only...
SGD$0.90 cents each! (okay caps locking again cos I damn proud of myself
for finding cheap feather earrings. hehehehehe~)

if you're residing in Singapore, let me know if you're
interested in getting a pair of these babies~
I'll direct you to the store with much pleasure!
♪ヽ( ⌒o⌒)人(⌒-⌒ )v ♪

SHEER POLKA DOTS RIBBON BOW HAIRTIES~!
fell in love how these ribbon bows were shaped,
plus they came together with a headband:

TADAH! (^^)-(^^)-(^^)-(^^)-(^^)
i wanted to head out in this by wearing it like any other headband: across the middle
of the forehead (bohemian style?) until my mum stopped me and told me
that i looked very much like a red indian. lol #failmax

ALL 3 HAIR ACCESSORIES AT ONLY SGD$6!
GO GET THE WHOLE SET AT DIVA BEFORE THEIR STOCKS RUNS OUT
IF YOU'RE A FAN OF POLKA DOTS AND RIBBONS!!! ＼（＾∀＾）メ（＾∀＾）ノ
THEY ALSO HAVE OTHER STUFF ON SALE NOW~ like a 50% off rack!!!

*must thank me if you manage to get this or any item in
this post okayyy!!! BAHAHAHAHAHA*
joking.

thats like a whooping 80% off! ヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)ノ

also got this SGD$10 uber kawaii handphone pouch shaped to look like a
leopard's paw at the convention too!

there's a golden shimmery bell attached to it so at the slightest shake of the pouch,
it'll go CHING CHING CHING CHING CHING till the world ends.
it's effing annoying so imma remove it.
if not i'll be a walking monastery.
*starts chanting prayers* ( 。・_・。)人(。・_・。 )

can't bear to use it so i'll save it whenever I decide to get a new phone teehee
*fluffy things makes me happy*

"lovely" necklace from Forever 21!!! A steal at only $6~
got many other colours as well and other letterings,
so rush to their accessories section (got mine from the outlet above Orchard MRT)
if you like necklaces with literal wordings~ GOGOGOGOGO! ヘ( ^o^)ノ＼(^_^ )

psst...anyone knows where can I get a gold necklace with my name engraved?
have been wanting one since forever *inserts hopeful face*

Hello Kitty X Sexy Look masks I got from the *Scape flea market recently,
3 for SGD$5 only~! there's quite a couple of booths
set up at the flea market that sells masks individually and boxed, competitively priced,
so drop by next time at their next flea session if you're running low on masks~

have been addicted to using the Hello Kitty X Sexy Look range of masks
because I really do see whitening/ tightening improvements on my skin right after usage!
(not because of the Hello Kitty novelty factor lol though that plays a part as well)

HELLO KITTY DEMONSTRATING HOW TO USE THE MASKS
SO CUTE OMG *DIES* ヽ(´Д｀)人(´Д｀)人(´Д｀)ノ〜♪

leopard prints cosmetic bag~ LOVE THE PREEENSSSSS

it's super spacious so i totally recommend this cosmetic bag for makeup junkies

What i think about the product:

creamy texture! what i like about this product is that it does not clog the pores of our skin,

THUMBS UP! serves as an efficient night cream, however it might be on the sticky side if applied

too much, thus only use a sparing amount on the skin to let it breathe throughout the night~

[Sponsored Review] Hada Labo (SHA) Moisturizing Cleansing Oil

2011-10-30T15:49:00.006+08:00

Hello lovelies~
How have you been?
☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆
It's gonna be the end of the year soon~! *rejoyce mode*
With all the festivities approaching, we all must put our best face forward and thus
today I'm gonna be sharing with you the importance of good cleansing,
and a review on the latest cleansing oil that has just hit the market~!

FACTS OF THE DAY:
1. For facial skin, avoid the usage of soaps, since soaps
contain harsh detergents and can cause dehydrate of your
skin to look dull and stretched.
2. Warm water is best suited for the skin. Do not use very cold or
very hot water to cleanse your skin, as they may
damage your pores and lead to skin dehydration,
itching, irritation and increased potential of stretchiness.
3. Cleanse make up off as early as possible when
you don’t need it any more.
Proper cleansing of your face, eyes, ears and neck in a
thorough way to remove any traces of make up is certainly
required for a healthy skin, especially at night before going to sleep.
This will enable your skin to breathe without any interference and
take in more oxygen to stay fresh.

now let me present to you...

the Hada Labo (SHA) Moisturizing Cleansing Oil~

SHA is otherwise known as Super Hyalurronic Acid!

if you don't already know,

I AM A BIG FAN OF HADO LABO PRODUCTS!

reviewed their Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Milk over at

(http://whimsicalityindisguise.blogspot.com/2011/07/hello-everyone-vv.html)

so i was pretty much overjoyed when I got the chance

to review the new addition to the Hado Labo family~ d=(´▽｀)=b

Hada Labo SHA Moisturizing Cleansing Oil
Product Description:
Formulated with high purity Olive Oil, Hada Labo Hydrating Cleansing Oil helps to gently remove dirt, oil and heavy makeup effortlessly.

The 2 key ingredients are 1) High Purity Olive Oil and 2) Super Hyaluronic Acid.

The Ultra Pure Olive Oil ensures high performance cleansing, and yet is
very gentle with no irritation to skin. Super Hyaluronic Acid gives 2X
more moisture than normal hyaluronic acid, where 1g can retain 12 litres
of water, giving you refreshing smoothness after cleansing.

It is also water-soluble and does not leave any greasy residue, stickiness or
dryness on your face after cleansing. Faithful to Hada Labo’s ‘PERFECT X SIMPLE’ philosophy, it does not contain Mineral Oil which is harmful to the skin and clogs
pores, unlike other Cleansing Oils in the market.

How the product looks like in real life~

contains Super hyaluronic acid too!

Gentle to delicate eye are and eye lashes!

THE MOST EFFECTIVE STEPS

TO GET THE MOST OUT OF

YOUR CLEANSING REGIME:

STEP 1. The best way to begin cleansing your face is by

washing your hands thoroughly to prevent transfer of bacteria to your face.

STEP 2. Begin with the hairline and work your way down

with gentle sweeping movements over the face, lips and down the neck.

STEP 3. Massage the cleanser gently onto the

face with light movements of the fingertips and

leave on for absorption and deep cleansing for about a minute

STEP 4. Next, with the help of a clean cotton makeup pad,

wipe away the visible dirt and pollution with your hands and if

there is any cosmetic residue,

wipe it downwards towards the neck.

STEP 5. Rinse your face using cool water to splash it.

The temperature of the water is very important, as too hot or

too cold water can cause flushing and increase broken capillaries,

if such exist on your skin.

Cleansing and skin care tips are meant to increase the lifespan of beautiful

skin and help in detoxification of unhealthy toxins in the body.

Always follow up with a good toner and moisturiser!

product has a removable clip that you can take off when you want to cleanse your face~

after cleansing you can insert the clip back so that there will be

no cleansing oil flowing out from the bottle! (☆^O^☆)

very ingenious product design that I notice beauty products nowadays are incorporating ~

tadah! clip removed!

how the product looks like when dispensed~

a clear transparent fluid that is oily based, don't be deceived by the packaging,

the product is not yellow in colour! if it's yellow it'll look like cooking oil already lol

(can't imagine putting cooking oil to clean my face GAHHHHHHH)

putting it to the test, as I would only provide 100% honest review of any product~

with pencil eyeliner on the left and liquid eyeliner on the right

within 20 seconds of cleansing massaging, eyeliners comes off

easily and is dispersed with the product

after 30 seconds, eyeliners are completely removed,

only requires water to wash off the remaining product~

now to put the product to test on my eyes:

BEFORE: with pencil eyeliner, liquid eyeliner and

glittery eyeshadow all over top and bottom lids

Directions when using the

Hada Labo (SHA)

Moisturizing Cleansing Oil:

Keep your hands and face dry. Pump sufficients cleansing oil onto your

palm and gently massage onto your face and eye area.

Wet face to emulsify cleansing oil.

Rinse thoroughly with water.

let's begin the cleansing process:

AFTER: all signs of makeup removed except for a little

pencil eyeliner at the outer corners of my eyes,

which can be easily removed thereafter by delicately wiping away

the reminding residue with a cotton pad. remember, gentle strokes

to decrease the chances of having premature wrinkles! ヾ(＠゜▽゜＠）ノ

Verdict:

Comfort: 9/10

Was using the Cleansing Express Cleansing Oil as my makeup remover

before testing out this product,

and by comparison, the Hado Labo's cleansing oil when measured up,

feels much oilier to the touch, on the heavy side.

For cleansing oil virgins, the oily texture of this product

might put you off at first, but I guess it's attributed

to the Olive Oil content that this product has!~ so nothing to worry about!

thus I gave this section a 9 as I'm already quite used to how

cleansing oils feels.

product has not caused me any breakouts as of yet, so the content is not too rich

for the skin, just right! thumbs up for this point~

Especially liking the fact that the product has a removable clip attached

so that it is more hygienic~

Smell: 9/10

has a light smell that is pleasant.

can't really pinpoint it smells like but it definitely

would not put you off from using the product!

(i like to smell it actually HAHAHHAHA

like when cleansing i will keep sniffing my palms trolololol)

Cleansing Power: 10/10

cleanses your skin and definitely makes it baby smooth!

suitable for those with dry or sensitive skin as well

due to the hyaluronic formula of the product, it won't be drying to the skin

and moisturises while cleanses! kill two birds with one cleanser!

+ even though the texture of the product is oily, after cleansing of the face,

it does not leave a greasy feeling on the skin at all. instead

i feel very much refreshed, skin feels light and not tight

(some cleansers I used before makes my skin feel overly tight like botox feeling

even though I don't know how botox feels, but i imagine its

a very tight feeling lol)

Overall:10/10~!

MY FAVOURITE MAKEUP REMOVER THUS FAR!!! (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))

i highly recommend this product for women who

applies makeup daily or has thick and heavy makeup,

and women with sensitive, breakout prone skin!

you definitely won't go wrong with Hado Labo's range of skincare products!

For your info:

Price of the Hada Labo SHA Moisturizing Cleansing Oil: $ 20.90 DAMN WORTH A TRY!

(Thank you so much Sochii for your eagle eye and pointing

the corrected price out ^^ *blush*!!!!)
