The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Mist Review

Anyeong ~

Needed a quick fix to moisturized skin? face mist is the answer. There are many good face mist out there. Today I am writing a review for a face mist from Body Shop from the Vitamin E skin care range "Vitamin E Face Mist".

This face mist contained rose water to instantly refresh and moisturized your skin suitable for all skin type, 100ml for about RM35. Instruction on the packaging spray on your face with distance of 15cm - close mouth and eyes during application. It smells like rose water, very refreshing and immediately feels skin hydrated. Tips: pat your skin gently to spread the mist on your face and allow better absorption (make sure you hands are washed and clean before you do that).

This face mist is in a convenient small bottle you can carry it along wherever you go - use it after the gym, in an aeroplane or during hot weather or when you feel your skin needed that little touch of moisturizing and refreshing mist.

Why Face Mist?



  1. Instant refresh
  2. Instant moisturize
  3. Soothe skin irritation
  4. Setting make up etc.


Sweet light pink color

Descriptions on the back of the plastic bottle packaging

Ingredients

What I like about this Face Mist:
  • Can open the bottle cap to DIY content, add your favorite beauty ingredients
  • Affordable 


What I dislike about this Face Mist:
  • Oily cast after use
  • Not suitable for oily skin
  • Not suitable for sensitive skin (stinging sensation)
  • Too much chemical ingredients


Overall I will not buy this face mist again, I prefer Avene face mist, the ingredients is spring water and nitrogen, less chemical and safe, also really moist and supple for skin.

The Body Shop: Honey & Oat 3 in 1 Scrub Mask Review

I purchased The Body Shop Honey & Oat 3 in 1 Scrub Mask last week, as I was searching for a gentle and good exfoliate, and was introduce to this mask by the shop assistant in The Body Shop, this mask is 3 in 1 function as cleanser, polish and moisturize. The oatmeal grains actually act as gentle exfoliate to skin and honey (it's mentioned organic on the label) is well known to moisturize skin. 

This mask is suitable for normal / dry skin. The price is RM55 (100ml) before discount, just purchase items in body shop worth RM100 and you automatically entitle to membership - discounts of 10% onward and other benefits. If I am not mistaken if you have 150 points onward you will get 15% discount RM1 equal to 1 point.

 The packing look like this

Description on the packing

Description on the packing: Apply to clean skin, leave for 5-10 minutes, rinse. Use once or twice a week. Avoid lip and eye areas.



The smell is very pleasing, the mask is easy to apply and the oat grain is not rough but soft and gentle, after 10 minutes I rinsed it off and my skin felt supple and moisturized, immediately noticed my skin was brighter, very happy with the result and satisfied with this products.

Himalaya AyurSlim Plus SG Updates


Hi readers... 

Here is the update on the Himalaya AyurSlim Plus SG which I have written the preview here, I taken it for only one week unfortunately have to quit because it was very heaty - my body was hot and feverish probably due to the effect from the SG (which short for Shuddha Guggulu) I feel it was waste of my money since I cannot take it and considering throwing it, I worry that this I cannot give to others as well. Probably the SG doesn't suit my body, it might suit you, I don't know. This is just my personal experience for your reference, by no mean undermining the products.

Himalaya AyurSlim Plus SG Pre-view

If you follow my blog, you will know that I tried the AyurSlim before and the result doesn't up to my expectation. I have just purchased AyurSlim + SG for RM94.xx (supply for one month - 2 bottles for AyurSlim and 1 bottle of SG), this is a new package from AyurSlim range, I first thought it's a completely new product which have extra strength to deliver better result to weight loss. However when I open up the package box, it was actually same product as the original one except added one extra bottles of SG (which short for Shuddha Guggulu) if you google the Shuddha Guggulu, you will find that this herb is well known for effective weight loss and fat burning agent, regulate metabolism and lowering the cholesterol. 



Value buy at RM94.xx at Watson


One bottle of SG and 2 bottles of AyurSlim supply for one month




For best result it is recommended that this product taken with at least:

4 times a week 20 mins of exercise
Eat lots of vege, fruits, juice...
Drinks at leats 8 glasses of water
Reduce fat food such as cheese, fried food etc...



I will try to keep up with the guidelines above and see what will the result be and will post up an update later on.

Maybelline Hello Kitty Mascara Review



I am reviewing Maybelline Hyper Curl Volume Hello Kitty Mascara RM29.90, what attracted me to this product was the packing with Hello Kitty sooooooooo cute and the price is affordable. I can't read the Japanese description, but the picture says no curler needed, skip one step, isn't that convenient? :)


Verdict:
Pros:
  • Beautiful dark black color
  • Cute packing
  • Affordable
  • Curl your lashes - can skip curling your lashes
  • Water proof


Cons:
  • The brush size slightly too big for my liking,
  • Hard to wash off - I hate it because it's so hard to waste off, especially when double coat
  • The overall look for me is just so so
Overall, this product doesn't impress me, just another mascara, i would rate this product 2/5.

Ohindo Slimming Patch Review

Came across Slimming patch from online deal website and it's cheap and some what interesting, although I am skeptical of the effect - it doesn't sound logic to me but I was tempted to try this silly patch at least once in a life time since the price only a couple of bucks - I think was around RM20-RM30 for 2 packs - which contained 10 pieces perpack, can't remember the exact price, you can google and the title and might able to find links to those online deal website such as groupon etc. 

So I received the package and went on trying the patch for 5 days consecutively, the direction was one patch per day, patch it at night on your tummy on your belly button before sleep and remove in the morning. I patch it below my belly button instead as I don't want to cover my belly button with patch.  


 (Click to enlarge)

After 5 days I don't see any difference on my weight, but then to my horror I started to noticed the patch mark on my tummy, - the patch area of my skin was very dry and there was film residue on it which started to freak me out and I immediately stop using the patch. I try to wash it off with makeup remover oil, soap etc but to no avail. It was so bad :( I regretted my stupidity and curiosity. Whether this is the original product or not I am not sure, but I will never want to take the risk to leave scar / mark on my skin ever again.


This is my personal experience and hope this will helpful to you in your decision making if you are considering to purchase this product. Rating need not to say, this product is a big no no.
