Empties: September 2013

 

Hi everyone! It's been a crazy couple months for me. Just to give a quick update, I'm currently working at Lush Singapore and it's been busy busy busy. So since I'm working there, I'll try to do more review on Lush products since I'm trying new products from there.

 

Anyway, moving on, it's October already! So of course, here's my empties for September!

 

 

(YAY) Garfield Baby Wipes 100pcs

It has a slightly rough texture but I find that it removes makeup from my hands very effectively. This is my HG everytime I put on makeup and make a mess on my hands and table.

 

(YAY) ELF Booster in Sheer

Good if you want a sheer, light finishing powder.

 

(YAY) MBD Black Pearl Mask

This mask claims to brighten and whiten. I think it does brighten and moisturise, doubtful about the whitening part, or it might be that I do not use it frequently to see the results. But still, a happy girl because I'm a sucker for masks.

 

Daiso Natural Pack Black Peel Off Mask

 

(YAY) Biore Pore and Oil Clear Facial Foam with Micro Scrub 

Cheap and it works pretty well for me. Gentle on my face even with the scrub.

 

Lady Speed Stick in Shower Fresh

 

(YAY) Guardian Hydrating Face Mist

Works pretty much like its sibling; the nourishing face mist. However, I find this smells more pleasant. I like to use this to refresh my face after a wash or just to set my makeup. I think Guardian has discontinued its face mists though.

 

Guardian Nourishing Face Mist

 

(YAY) Opto-Pharm Buffelin Eye Drops

Definitely without a doubt a yes for me. A cheaper alternative than my previous P2 eye drop and works just as well. I'm a fan.

 

(YAY) Hello Kitty Raspberry 2 in 1 Shower Gel and Shampoo

Sweet raspberry scent. It makes my body AND my hair smell nice. This is a fun product to have!

 

Essence CoverStick in 01 Matt Sand

 

(YAY) Simply Active Deep Cleansing Facial Wipes 30pcs

This is suitable for all skin types and costs me like $1!! This is effective when use together a makeup cleansing product, and it makes my face feels refreshed. It does not remove makeup effectively alone, but again, for $1, it's no wonder. Overall, I'm still pretty happy with this product.

Alright! So that's all for my September empties. Surprisingly, I'm pretty happy with the products I used up in Sept (:

Haul: Sasa

 

This is pretty much a collective haul, I think from 3 trips to Sasa! Some were bought from its store and some were from its sale event at Plaza Singapura Atrium.

 

Ok lets get started! First up, Sally Hansen Airbush Legs in Light Glow, Shills Aqua Skin Moisturising Spray, Dot Dot Compact Waterproof Flawless Foundation in Ivory White, Shills Bemishless Pores Hide and Heal Cream, Dot Dot Gel Eyeliner in Shimmering Black, Sasatinnie Super Dolly Powerful Curling Mascara in Black, 2 Sasa Creamy Soft Miracle Makeup Bases in 02 Balance, 2 Sasa HD Perfect Foundations in 02 Warm Ivory, 2 Color Combos Bodycare Ginger Slim Up Body Scrubs.

 

As you have noticed, I have each of the Sasa HD Perfect Foundation, Creamy Soft Miracle Makeup Base and Color Combos Ginger Slim Up Body Scrub missing. That's because I've actually used up all of the 1st bottles! I will be giving a reviews on these! Do watch out for these!

(NAH) Review: Avene Thermal Spring Water

 

As I have finished my Avene Thermal Spring Water up, I decide I will do a review for you all.

 

My friends told me this is good but I beg to differ. It just feels like water to me. After using the whole bottle, I don't feel that my skin has improved or seen any visible results from using it.

 

Also, it does not moisturise my face. I think for a $10 spray bottle, I would expect something from it but it did not give it to me.

 

I still prefer my Guardian Nourishing Face Mist.When I'm done with it, I will move on to try other face mists.

(YAY) Review: Guardian Nourishing Face Mist

 

The last time I went to look for this in the hope of getting one more, I could no longer find it. But I'm gonna review it anyway (:

 

I only have a problem with its scent, especially when I first spray it onto my face. I find that the scent is overwhelming for me. However, the smell does dissipates away after awhile.

 

I like this Guardian Nourishing Face Mist as it is very moisturising. I have been using the Avene Thermal Spring Water before trying this and I find that this is way moisturising than the Avene one. Furthermore, I decided to use this as my makeup setting spray and guess what? It works! I spray this product on after my face makeup but before my eye makeup. It sets my makeup and moisturises my face, and also helps the oil control on my face.

 

Too bad for me, I'm halfway done with this product and looks like I have to look for another face mist to try.
