적은돈도 아니고, 제품 구매하실때 도움되실거예요 :).
어쨌거나 본론으로 들어가서..


라프레리 플래티늄 래어 세럼이랑 크림에 대한 솔직한 후기가 잘 없는것 같아서 이렇게 포스팅을 하게 되었어요!! >_<

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.

Hi all, I thought I might write about something more practical today; skincare products that all of you can rely on for every season! :) I haven't really suggested cheaper alternatives on my previous posts, but this time I'll include some for the budget-minded.

I'm splitting this post into many so it's not too long, this one contains tips on toners. I plan on covering serums and moisturisers as well as part of this series. So let's get started :)

Making of Androgynous look with Belstaff Shearling jacket

I, myself, am not affiliated with any companies.



     

The temperature dropped pretty low last month, so I needed to bring out my Belstaff shearling jacket that I packed away when I organised my wardrobe since Summer was on the way -_-. By the way, if you are into biker jackets, Belstaff makes very nice ones, so you should check them out. I've owned mine for a few years now, but you will find similar designs every year or once every a few years. You can also get their clothes from Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf goodman.

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.

Hi everyone!
It has been raining outside, and I thought it might be a good time to do some blog posting! :) Hope you are doing well, and here I am with another post, this time on intensive night treatment product Supremÿa la nuit by Sisley :). Enjoy!


I must say, this is very expensive! -_- Regardless here I'm on my 4th bottle. ie. it has been 4 years since I started using this product. I'm not going to lie, saying "Oh, this brings A MIRACLE to my skin" :P. The results are quite similar to their green detox night complex, which I've talked about before. So you can go and have a read about it if you are interested! :).

It has already been almost 4 years since I started using Omorovicza products O_O.
Time flies, hey! >_<
Trust me, I've been meaning to make this post sooner, but I just didn't realise how many Omorovicza products I've been using/keeping in my bathroom cabinet :O.
Although I don't use Omorovicza products daily like La Prairie ones, I've been enjoying their products at least weekly!
Last weekend, I dashed to organise my beauty cabinet a bit since my family's visiting me at the end of this month XD
I know it is very exciting and I'm very much looking forward to it. But at the same time, I don't want them to get freaked out from my messy giant collection of beauty products haha :P.

Anyways, I will start off by reviewing Omorovicza Mist/Toner & Treatments, then move onto other Serums/Concentrates, cleansers & peel, moisturisers and body care products over a few posts.
I hope you find this post helpful as usual! :)

It has been raining frequently in Seattle these days! Autumn's here!
Naaaaaaaaaaaw :'( *wiping tears*
Anyhow, I thought I might make another post on intensive skincare treatment whilst listening to Kiss the Rain by Yiruma on infinite looper! >_<

Last time, I reviewed Cellular Power Infusion by La Prairie, which is a part of the intensive collection that I will talk about here. So if you want to have a look at the detailed post on Cellular Power Infusion, click Here.

Review > GLAMGLOW Mud Masks (Tips & Warnings)

Hello Sexy! >_<
I was hooked up with GLAMGLOW's Tingling & Exfoliating Mud Mask about 4 years ago, and I have been religiously using their range ever since! :) Their masks are very expensive compared to how much you normally get in the jar, but I must say they are very result oriented.

I do however have a problem with the packaging like Chantecaille; the product doesn't come with a spatula (at this price point =_=). I think they should change their packaging from a jar to a tube if they don't want to include a spatula O_O. And I think it will keep the mask more fresh since there will be less contact with air! >_<

Anyway, here is my personal experience with GLAMGLOW mud masks over 4 years :).
Hope this helps! xx

Also have a look at my review on Sisley face masks if you are interested! :)






Over the weekend, I was organising my bathroom cabinet which I do monthly, and I have found that there's something common going on in all my most loved/used face masks. That is: ROSE! Apparently I have been loving masks with rose as an ingredient without even realising it! >_<  Rose smells not only beautiful, but it is also an excellent resource for hydrating skin. Anyway, I thought this might be a good review/guide for rose face masks for those who are in love with rose like I am! :) I am sorry if you find these products below quite expensive, but these are what I use as they work brilliantly on my skin, and this is my recommendation. And in general, the rose ingredient is very expensive, so you cannot imagine the producer will set price lower than this price point sadly. LOL. I wish they would lower the price, but I can understand why they don't at the same time :P.
I hope you find this post helpful like my other posts! Thank you for reading :)

I usually stock up my La Prairie products over holiday seasons.
As always, they presented some different limited editions this year! 
If you are into their Skin Caviar range, then you should definitely check their online website or go to the counter and have a look! 
Very great value for money!! ;)
I was very tempted to get the Platinum Rare gift set, where you basically get an eye cream for free!

This is the continuing post (part 2) of  On board > Overnight In-Flight Skincare -Part 1-,so if you have not read it yet, then make sure you check it! :)


I hope you all had some sleep in the plane! :)
Trust me, it is still better than no sleep at all! ;)
If you have not had any sleep at all :O, then no worries, I have got some tips for you :P.
In fact, you can even practice this routine as part of your after party/long night/stressed skin rescue. Well, whenever your skin needs some TLC!
You can absolutely repeat the same steps from the previous post, but I do not :P.
I just have fun with using different products if possible! >_<
And it is quite boring in the plane ( I cannot read either, it gives me a very bad headache! :( ), so this is another good way of killing time I guess! 

Basically, after the 8-9 hour-long flight, I used the same cleanser and toner (the same process! :P) from On board > Overnight In-Flight Skincare -Part 1-.
Then, I followed with these products! :)

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

Well, I know that I tend to be a little hesitant 
when I suggest complexion makeup products.
It is just part of my personality when I write a post on some particular product. 
I want it to be more universally suitable, closer to "WOW".
Honestly, at least to me, there has not been any "WOW" makeup products for complexion from from my ten categories that I always check;
