Review & Tips > Year-round Skin Care Must Haves for All Skin Types - Part 2: Serum/Essence/Concentrate -

My reviews on the products are very personal, and I, myself, am not affiliated with the company producing the products. I always do my best to keep my review very neutral, yet, friendly and more focused on results after using the products rather than ingredients or benefits advertised by the company. Although this enabled me to tell whether the product's description turns out to be fool- proof or not, for various personal skin needs/issues, I cannot guarantee that the products which worked on my skin will definitely work on yours.




In the previous post Part 1, I talked about toners, today it's all about serums! :D If you don't use serums that's ok, you can skip this step. However, if you're suffering from dehydration and dryness regardless of how much you use your moisturiser, this post probably give you some ideas how to solve that problem :). Also, if you are someone with oily/combination skin looking for right serums to replace your regular moisturiser, you're in the right spot :).

There are different types of serums; boosting serums, hydrating serums, calming/soothing serums, brightening/lightening serums and lastly anti-aging ones. As per the post title, I will be focusing on the first 3. After reading this post, you will be able to decide what you need for your skin and what kind of texture you want.

Review > High-end Hydrating Moisturiser Comparison (Guerlain vs La Mer vs La Prairie vs Sisley)

Gustav Klimt < Adele Bloch-Bauer I >

I've noticed an increasing number of people talking about "anti-aging" skin care for the last few years, regardless of the age. It seems to me that it's just nothing but a popular trend among consumers and companies. But in fact, if we think about what real "anti-aging" skin care is, it's just a balance between inner and outer beauty. Meaning, you can't simply just pile on expensive products without a healthy life style and expect that you can delay aging of your skin.

KOREAN AIR > Prestige Business Class ( SYD <-> ICN ) & DAVI Skin Care ( 대한항공 > 프리스티지 비스니스 클래스 & 다비 스킨케어 )

I, myself, am not affiliated with any companies.




Somehow I messed up with my blog posting schedule, and finally here I am with this XD.
( Trust me, I've been meaning to post this a while ago >_<.)

I enjoy flying with Korean Air, due to their excellent services including snacks (unless of course the peanuts are served incorrectly :P)! Haha you may have noticed how much I love food! ;)
Anyway, this is basically what you get in Prestige Business class in Korean Air from Sydney, Australia to Incheon/Seoul, Korea, vice versa.

Review > LA MER Skincare Purchase Guide!





I have been organising my beauty cabinet recently and was surprised by how much I have been relying on Sisley's basic skincare range >_< So I thought it might be a good opportunity to talk about the ones that I have been religiously using for the last 6 years or so >_< I have raved about their basic line in the previous post that I wrote. I do use other products from the Sisley skincare range, but this time, I will only talk about their toners and masks to start off with :). So this post is the first part; Sisley Toners ( To read about Part two: Sisley Face Masks, click Here) . If you are a fan of light and refreshing toners, Sisley is the way to go. By the way, I do use other toners from other brands, so I do not just use Sisley ones soley >_<.

On board > Overnight In-Flight Skincare -Part 1- ( 기내 스킨 케어 / 여행용 화장품 - 1/2 - )

For more details on why I packed these products with me, 
please check my previous post Spring / Summer Vacance Travel Kit! - Part 1: Skin Care-.
I have explained thoroughly how I normally pack my skincare products when I am away! :)
And I am quite sure that you will find answers to most of the questions that you might have, and if you still have further questions, then please do not hesitate to ask me :).



Well, I have made several posts before on skincare travel kit, 
so I contemplated if I should make another one. 
And then, I realised that I have not yet made a post on on-board skincare / makeup! >_<  
So here I am with my lovely Hello Kitty sandwich bag that I took with me in my hand luggage for my LONG flight! :)

By the way, this is only half of my In-flight skincare routine, ie. this post will deal with beauty regime before sleep in the flight! Part 2 (next post) will be about after sleep skincare regime before makeup!





What is in my Hello Kitty sandwich bag? o.O

Autumn/Winter in Australia is not too bad compared to other places.
However, we still cannot ignore the fact that it is AUTUMN/WINTER!
i.e. our skin cannot let its guard down from dehydration and UV rays.
You might not have to worry about bacteria and other infections too much in A/W unlike in S/S.
However, you really need to focus on thorough gentle cleansing, mild exfoliation and deep cleansing (NOT harsh) to make a perfect base for your heavier/richer products that you normally tend to put on to prevent dehydration..
And if you are an outdoor person, make sure you put on as much sunscreen as you put on in Summer.
Many people think that it is okay just to rely on SPF from their make up products.
In fact, the amount of UV rays that you get in Winter is very similar to Summer.
So if you have a sensitive/dry skin, then do not skip your daily sunscreen!

Well, that is an enough intro for now, and let's have a look at my kit! :)

Read about Review > LA MER Skincare Purchase Guide!

*****Sorry! I just realised that I have not posted this one in English version :S. So, I am posting this now, and hopefully this will help for your future decision on these skincare brands! :)



I feel that it is very easy to be deluded by all the ads and reviews on luxury skincare brands from magazines, YouTube, blogs..etc.
It is not like we can buy literally ALL OF THEM ..:(
Simultaneously, we get readily scared/paranoid of breakouts or the product's inefficiencies.
Very natural indeed since we paid FORTUNE for these products and therefore have very high expectations on the products that we buy.

Perhaps this explains why some of you asked me a few questions on those luxury skincare brands since my last post on La Prairie Skincare  Purchase Guide.

And I thought...

HMMMM
Why not compare some of the luxury skincare brands that I have been using?!

By the way, I am very well aware of the fact that there are more luxury brands on the market, but I am only dealing with the ones that are more widely known throughout the world.
I hope this post will help you with choosing the right brand/product for your skin.
Enjoy it!  :)

후기> 럭셔리 스킨케어 가이드> 라메르 vs 라프레리 vs 스위스 퍼펙션 vs 시슬리 비교

참고로 이 포스트는 상업적 포스트 아닙니다~ 전 라메르, 라프레리, 스위스 퍼펙션, 시슬리 회사들이랑은 아무 관련없습니다~
그리고 불펌은 금합니다!!! 상업적 댓글도 NO 입니다~ ^_^






귀는 자꾸 팔랑거리고..
얘기만 들으면 화장품 다 사서 써야할 것 같고..
그렇다보니 비싼돈 주고 샀다가 화장품 안 맞아서 낭패볼까봐 겁나고..

그래서인지 지난번 포스트 이후에 몇 몇 분들께서 저에게 이런 브랜들과 비교해서 질문을 몇번 받았었어요.
제가 그래서 지난번 라프레리 스킨케어 제품 구매 가이드 포스트에
이어서 이번에는 럭셔리 스킨케어 가이드로 준비해 봤어요.
처음 막 발을 디딘 새내기분들께 조금이나마 도움이 되었으면 하네요~^^.
