Review: Mario Badescu’s Strawberry Clay Face Mask for Combination Skin
Using this face mask at night is a bad idea. It always make me crave strawberry cheesecake with a dash of cough syrup. Yum! For my dry/oily/combination skin, clay masks are great because they absorb oils from the t-zone area. But I do worry because they can also further dehydrate the dry parts on my …
Review: Lanolips Ointment Multi-Balm helps protect your skin

Facial Spray Review: Mario Badescu with Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater

Bubble Mask Review by Sasatinnie with Hyaluronic Acid
I am probably riding the back end of the gimmick ‘bubble mask’, but anyways… I was very intrigued to try this mask since my sister lugged it back from Hong Kong. At first glance I realised that it was mostly written in Mandarin. I had tried using Google to decipher it but no luck. There …
Review: Hydrate & smooth your face with Dermalogica’s Skin Smoothing Cream
What attracted me to this cream was the fact that it was ‘skin smoothing’ (and also because it was a free sample). I like Dermalogica products as they are for specific skin type, but of course with a price attached to it. So what did I think after using this cream over 7 days (morning …
Review: Aveeno Baby Soothing Wash (as a Face Cleanser)
I never would have thought I’d use a baby wash as a face cleanser. I’ve seen so many recommendations of baby products for the face, and so I decided to try Aveeno Baby Wash. Baby products generally have a higher pH, so at first I was a bit reluctant as higher pH products means it …
Review: Nivea Soft Body Cream to rebalance & protect skin
Spring is here and it is a great time for my skin to dry out and go flaky. Australian weather is so unpredictable, rainy one day and then blistering hot the other. I picked up this body cream because it was on sale and was curious to see if it can help my dry skin. …

Review: Lalisse Peel Off Mask helps clear up your pores
Peel off masks always fascinate me, mainly because I have lots of white and blackheads. And I like looking at all the impurities it draws out and how clean my pores are. Coincidently my sister had the Lalisse Exfoliating Peel-Off Mask and recommended me to try it. And so I did~ My thoughts? First thought …
