hk skincare haul :)
I’ve been back in London since like a month ago this is so late, better late then never ^^ haven’t had the time to blog since I’ve been house hunting in Kingston and working. I haven’t yet tried all the products which are listed, but I will post reviews to let you know as soon as possible. Most of the products were bought from Sasa, colourmix or Watsons if I haven’t stated below.
Background on my skin: I have oily skin, which is prone to breakouts a lot if I don’t use the right products especially when I’m trying new products, I have ALOT of scars from old acne and some redness on my cheeks. Please Note: some of these products I’ve bought may not be suitable for people with different skin types.
While in Hong Kong, I only tried a few products but these products really helped to improve my skin in many ways. I’ll start talking about from left to right.
Shu Uemura Fresh pore clarifying gentle cleansing oil 150/450ml – I was hesitant to try this as I have oily skin, but when the sales assistant showed me how to use it and demonstrated it on my skin. So I first purchased the 150ml bottle to try. I use the product both morning and night time, it’s so easy to use and takes off make up effortlessly, leaves skin so refreshed and refined. The pink fresh bottle is specially formulated for oily skin types and acne prone skin, this product hasn’t broken me out in any way. I bought two 450ml bottles from the airport in hong kong as back ups ^^ Here are the simple steps when using the oil:
1. Take 3 – 4 pumps of oil ( 3 pumps when using oil on clean skin and 4 pumps if using oil to remove make up)
2. Smooth and massage over entire face (ensure that skin is dry)
3. Wet face to emulsify cleaning oil turning the oil into a milky substance
4. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water
Neogence hyaluronic acid hydrating essence 20ml – Although I have oily skin, I need to ensure that my skin is hydrated, this product does just that it also improves skin firmness and texture of skin. I use this product in the only in the evening.
Clinque clarifying moisture lotion 3 400ml– I’ve tried the normal clarifying lotion in the past and I used it alot as part of the 3 step system that clinque had, which I used for a while but after a while it just wasn’t doing anything for my skin which is the reason I stopped using it. I’m not a big fan of toners, especially the clarifying toner, it’s so strong and all it feels like it that I’m rubbing alcohol on my face, also I feel it really stings my face. However the moisture one was formulated for oriental skins and only available for in asia. It has a much lighter scent, feels light on my skin and definitely not as strong in alcohol. Although the product is quite different to the normal clarifying lotion, it is used in the same way, use it twice a day, but I only use it in the morning.
Lioele waterdrop sleeping pack 120ml – I have bought this before, it great for my skin, in comparison to the laneige water bank sleeping pack which is too moisturing for my skin. This product has a gel based consistency, not sticky at all, smells gorgeous and it’s very light.
Perfect whip foam 120ml
Origins out of trouble 10 minute mask 100ml
Skin food tomato whitening spot serum 30ml
My beautiful diaries vanilla soufflé face scrub 120ml – I’ve tried this once it works in the same way as cure ( I don’t like cure xD, it has a strong smell of alcohol) but it’s a foam conisistancy which I like, which removes dead skin cells.
My beautiful diaries peach soda eye and lip make up remover 130ml – like the clinque eye make up remover, its oil based formula is great for taken of eye make up, also alot cheaper than the clinque one, also recommend the chanel eye make up remover (y)
Laneige pore minimizing pack 100ml
Laneige deep pore clearing foam 160ml
Laneige Multiberry yogurt peeling gel 120ml
Laneige strawberry yogurt pack and multiberry yogurt repair pack 80ml
Sasa facial cleansing brush – I used this all the whenever I am cleansing my skin, its great and cleanse skin deep down.
Skinfood rice and black sugar mask wash off 100g
Skin food lemon pack 100ml
Skin food ginseng mask 100 ml
My beautiful diaries strawberry yogurt amino acid cleanser 90ml – came in a set while buying face mask, smells nice although I don’t think I would use much xD
