MAYBELLINE NEW YORK GREAT LASH BLACKEST BLACK MASCARA REVIEW

Image
Mascara Great Lash của hãng Maybelline được ra đời từ khoảng thời kỳ đầu hoạt động của hãng và nhờ được ưa chuộng bởi rất nhiều người trên thế giới nên nó đã được quay trở lại với công thức cải tiến hơn một chút và bao bì thì không có nhiều thay đổi với 2 màu chủ đạo xanh lá chuối và hồng. Đọc qua rất nhiều reviews cũng như bảng xếp hạng mascara của các beauty bloggers, beauty editors, người tiêu dùng... thì thấy rất nhiều ca ngợi,

SOAP AND GLORY: SCRUB YOUR NOSE IN IT REVIEW

Image
Full name: Soap & Glory Special Pore Refining Formula facial scrub/ Scrub your nose in it for oily/combination skin I hate my nose, because it sweats so so much and breaks out so easily and I have more black heads on nose than the average amount that people have. I think in my case, it's genetic because my parents have so many black heads on face and chin.

ESTEE LAUDER PERFECTLY CLEAN FRESH BALANCING LOTION

Image
I know that toner/lotion is not a must-have in your beauty regime but if you guys have oily/acne-prone skin or you usually make up like almost everyday, you should use toner. It tones your skin, leave your skin soft, supple after your cleanser stripped all moisture from your face and your skin feels tight after that. Also, toners balance your skin pH, help your serum/essence absorb easier. You can notice that your cleanser might not wash all dirt out of your face by wiping your skin afterwards with a cotton pad soaked in with toner, the cotton pad will have some trace of dirt/brownish things on them.

WHAT I DID WHEN GETTING ECZEMA/ATOPIC DERMATITIS

I'm not a dermatologist or an expert at curing skin's problems, I write this post to share with you guys about my personal experience on how I took care of my skin during the time I got allergy, so I advised you to go meet doctors so as to have a serious check rather than totally follow my skincare routine. Well, the thing is I already have  genetic  predisposition to be  allergic, it came from both of my parents. But mine is seafood allergy, a little bit different from theirs.

L'OCCITANE REFRESHING AROMATIC DEODORANT

Image
Description: an invigorating deodorant formulated worth the essential oils of mint, pine and rosemary that helps to provide natural and long-lasting protection. Free of Aluminum Chlorohydarate, it helps to limit perspiration and the development of body odors. The smooth and powdery texture respects the skin while providing a sensation of well-being throughout the day. The first thing I love about this product is it aluminum-free, recently I try to only use deodorants/antiperspirants that don't contain aluminum salts.

THE BODY SHOP CHOCOMANIA BODY BUTTER DELUXE EDITION

Image
I have to say I really love it. It's not pricey at all. The smell is just as sweet as a chocolate bar, which makes me want to eat it right away (sorry but it's inedible).

REVIEW CLINIQUE ALL ABOUT EYES

Image
Clinique all about eyes is a popular eyecream which appears on many reviews, magazines and it was used to be recommended by many beauty junkies, beauty bloggers, beauty editors (especially Eva Chen) or simply by costumers who had tried/used it, that why I decided to give it a try, buying a small jar of eyecream which costs me 40$. Overall, it's light, non-greasy and it lasts longer than it looks.

WHAT I CAN'T STOP DRINKING: BIRCH TREE JUICE

When talking about juice, many people immediately think about juice made from fruits or veggies, these are all good for your health, unless they're freshly squeezed and served not more than a day (better store in cool place, such as in fridge). Otherwise, if they're juice sold in bottles, boxes, I will never believe they're natural and good for your health, even they're claimed to be 100% organic, containing no sugar/chemical... I try to drink them them as least as possible (when they are only non-alcoholic drinks served on tables and there is no water, I have no choice but drinking those juice when being thirsty). I often try to eat fruits directly or squeeze them to make juice at home.  But there are one kind of juice that I can't make it at home, it's birch tree juice.

MURAD REDNESS THERARY: SENSITIVE SKIN SOOTHING SERUM

Image
I just finished this serum last week. It took about 5 months to use up to the last drop. Here are my opinions about this product:

SEASON IN THE SUN

Image
The shortest distance between your youthful face and one that looks much older is sun exposure. I use sun protection all year round. The difference here is just in winter I often use 15-30 SPF and 40-50SPF in summer. I got fair skin with some redness on my nose and cheeks, plus, my skin is blackhead-prone. What I'm looking for in a sun protection product is being effective (of course), mild, light, fast absorbing, non acnegenic, non or minimum allergenic.

TIP OF THE DAY

I'm sure that you guys already knew much about benefits of baking soda. One of these benefits is making your own clarifying shampoo. It will gradually remove residue, build-up in your hair, making your hair feel weightless, bouncy and healthy.

REVIEW THE BODY SHOP BORN LIPPY

Image
Picture taken from www.thebodyshop-usa.com RAPSBERRY BORN LIPPY First impression: the nice smell of this lipbalm just makes me wanna eat. But don't try to lick them because it doesn't taste as sweet as it smells. This lipbalm is for someone who doesn't have dry cracked lips and want some sheer color on their lips.
