Our eyes have the most delicate skin on our body. Any sort of rubbing or tugging around our eye area may easily cause pre-mature wrinkles. Needless to say having eye bags is the toughest skin care problem to deal with.

The Eyelift is formulated to immediately restore our skin's lost collagen.

With just 30 seconds, The Face Inc Eye Lift helps in:

- Eye lifting

- Reducing of puffiness

- Reduce the appearance of eye bags

In 30 days, The Face Inc Eye Lift Helps in:

- Diminishing of dark eye circles

- Diminishing of fine lines

A live demo of the magical eye lift!

To be honest, I have never seen any product in the market that allows me to witness an instant result in just 30seconds!

You really have to see and try it out for yourself to believe it.

The Face Inc: Primer Mist

   

Facial mist is always a must have in my beauty routine. And I always can't wait to try out new mist available in the market. The facial mist from Face Inc is one of the highly anticipated product to try.

Unlike the usual mist that mostly helps to freshen up our face or gives a quick hydration boost for dry and dull skin. 

With just 15 seconds, The Face Inc Primer Mist,

- Has makeup primer properties to prep you before you apply your base makeup

- Acts like a hydrating mist that give 15 times instant hydration

-  Provides skin tightening purpose

Regular use of this product will help reduce fine lines and wrinkles as well! With its handy travel size, you can just bring it with you everywhere you go. 

Overall Thoughts:

I have been using the primer mist for one week (About 5 sprays on my face each time) I do feel the effect of skin tightening after I spray the mist and before applying my base makeup. The sides of my face feel plumper. I love how radiant my skin looks when I use this mist before I apply my base makeup. For best results, I would recommend you to use a foundation, with a semi-matte finish instead of a base makeup with a dewy finish.

Ratings: 4/5 

(Shocked by the instant results that the products can achieve in just 15-30 seconds!)

Innisfree Jeju Sparkling Series

Innisfree Jeju Sparkling Series Skincare

Have been on a mission for many years to find the best skincare and makeup products that suit Singapore's weather. As you know even some products in the market claims to be lightweight, very often those formula are still too heavy and oily for our skin to adapt.

And all money will be wasted as you probably will not want to use it on your skin.

Here is one skincare range that I would advise you to check out if you are living in a hot weather climate country like Singapore. 

I got 2 of the items from this range. 

The first impression when I first apply it on my skin, it smells like 100 Plus isotonic drink!

Jeju Sparkling Mineral Skin 200ml (Toner)

 

This toner is alcohol-free and is packed with 88% of sparkling mineral water!

I can say that this is a toner that is really gentle on skin as it is mainly a water based toner and its acid balanced formula helps restore the pH level of your skin after cleansing.

Alcohol-free: ✓

Hydration: ✓

Gentle on skin: ✓

Use it:

• Right after shower
• After a long day out under the sun, soak them up in cotton pads and leave them on your forehead and cheeks to cool down your skin.

Jeju Sparkling Mineral Mist 80ml

   

I am huge facial mist lover and I must say this is one of the top favourite mists I have used so far.

The mineral mist consists of 90% of sparkling mineral water.

If you are looking for an instant hydration boost or a product to freshen up your skin in the middle of the day, you should try the mineral mist! 

The nozzle of this mist dispenses micro size water molecules which help better absorption of the product. 

Use it:

• Last step of skincare
• In the middle of the day where your skin needs to relief from any dryness
• Freshen up and staying outdoors

Overall thoughts:

They are good for people who are looking for a basic skin care needs such as hydration and something not heavy for their skin.

Do not expect other properties such as anti-wrinkle/ pore control etc. 

for its price and benefits of this range, it's really worth check out. Especially for people who just started using skincare product. 

This is where you can start from and slowly build up to other skincare range with different skincare properties.

Faith in Face Gold Mask Sheet

Faith in Face Gold Mask Sheet 

 

There has been quite a hype about Gold Foil Mask these days!

As a reward for finishing up the pile of sheet masks I have in my vanity, I decide to stock up with some highly rave masks out in the market.

Continue reading for my thoughts and where you can get your hands on this mask!

    

Why is gold foil mask different from normal sheet masks?

• The foil helps your skin to absorb the essence better compared to normal cotton sheet masks. 
• Provides instant glowing and hydrated skin.

My Thoughts: 

• Unlike the normal sheet masks, one side of the foil mask is heavily soaked with the essence. Hence, the foil side acts like a "shield" to make sure that my skin is able to absorb all the goodness from it. 
• The foil mask does not dry out completely unlike normal cotton mask. (I tried leaving it out on the table until the next morning, it still feels a little moist. FYI, a normal cotton sheet mask would be completely dry after one night.) 
• Easy application as the essence of the mask doesn't start dripping and flowing everywhere around your hands and neck during application.
• The only downside of this mask is the cost of it. You can easily get 2-3 pieces of cotton sheet mask with this price.

Sold at all Watsons Stores at SGD$4.95 per piece

Current Make-Up Removing Routine.

Putting on makeup can make a huge difference to our appearance. Leaving on our makeup and head to bed can make a larger difference to our appearance too. 

In addition, it harms our skin due to clogged pores and unbreathable skin. As days goes by, you will see your skin looking dull, dry and flaky patches will surface around. 

Our makeup absorbs dirt and dust from the environment and it stays on our face throughout the day. 

By not removing our makeup, bacteria will grow on our skin and cause unwanted pimples. It may aid in more skin damages and also speed up the process of ageing skin.

Till date, I know there are still some girls who do not remove their make up before heading to bed. 

I personally feel that 1 cleansing product can never be enough to remove all those dirt, oil and makeup we accumulated throughout the day. Hence, this is a reason why I have a few products featured in this post.

1. Heroine Mascara Remover

Rating 10/10

Price: $14.90 (Watsons Store)

This mascara remover works wonders. It makes removing mascara instantly and easily. 

I used to use makeup wipes to remove my mascara, rubbing and tugging makes it so harmful for my lashes. Every time I try to remove mascara, I will end up losing some lashes too. I came across this item when Watsons was having sale and I decided to try it out. I was so delighted with this product and I went to purchase it for my best friend too. 

This is currently my 3rd tube and I HIGHLY recommend this to all girls who uses waterproof and smudge proof mascara. 

2. Tony Moly Clear Water Lip & Eye Remover, 165ml

Rating 8.5/10

Price: $11.50 (Tony Moly Stores)

I have sensitive eyes. Hence, any make-up remover that has oil content in it irritates my eyes badly. I have been using this same remover for the past 4 years and this is my 5th bottle. 

However, since this formula is a lot more gentle compared to oil based eye make-up remover, do not expect all make-up to be removed in just a single swipe. I used 2 cotton pads, 1 cotton pad for 1 eye and I used both sides to remove my eye make-up. It removes around 90% of my makeup. The rest of the remaining stubborn eye liner, I will have to use cotton bud with the solution on it, and remove every single bit of eye liner left on my lash line.

Additional points given for it's convenient packaging which makes dispensing of the product much easier.

Unlike normal make-up removers that comes in a bottle and requires you to shake out the product.

3. Byphasse Micellaire Make-up remover solution, 500ml

Rating 9.5/10

Price: $18 (Beauty Language Stores)

(Psst.. Very often they will have Buy 1 Get 1 Free promotion!)

I have yet to see any beauty bloggers raved about this product. 

Over the years as Micellaire water has garner lots of attention as it is gentle on skin and has the ability to remove make-up efficiently and effectively.

Let's be honest, think of the brands that carries micellar cleansing water. They are pretty pricey.

I found this at Beauty Language and it works exactly the same as other micellar cleansing water. 

I use this to remove my base makeup. This is truly a cost efficient and effective product. 

  

3. DHC Deep Cleansing Oil, 200ml

Rating 7.5/10

Price: $43 (Watsons Stores)

I heard lots of great reviews about this product but I cannot bring myself to pay $43 for this product. 

I was lucky enough to get this bottle of cleansing oil in Korea's Watsons for 10,000won (SGD$12).

This is my first experience with Cleansing Oil product. As soon as you massage the product into your face, it turns into a milky formula and melts your makeup away. You will need 1- 2 pumps of the product to effectively remove all the makeup on your face. It took me just 3-4 weeks and I finished up using it. 

Pros:

- Helps removes your makeup

- Allows you to give you face a little massage

- Unexpectly moisturising

Cons:

- Hefty price tag to purchase in Singapore. 

That's all beautyperkzins ~

The Face Shop Chia Seed Sebum Control moisture Cream

The Face Shop Chia Seed Sebum Control Moisture Cream

 

I ran out of my all time favourite moisturiser from Kiehl's and decide to try out this Chia Seed Sebum Control Moisture Cream that I purchased from Korea. It's known to be one of the best selling moisturiser from The Face Shop.

 

 

Comes in a tub and a spatula to scoop the product.

 

I love the fact that it's a gel moisturiser, not to rich for my combination skin (With oily T-Zone). 

 

Verdict based on Singapore's weather:

Great moisturiser for daily use. It has a very light and refreshing scent. However, it takes time for the moisturiser to absorb into my skin. I waited for a good 10mins before I start applying my makeup. 

Moisture level: 4/5  

You may consider this product as a more affordable substitute to Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-free Gel Cream.
