Summer nail

Diorsnow white reveal perfecting makeup uv base spf35 pa+++

Got this sample when i bought dior's powder foundation (review done in the previous post). Have been using for 4 days and so far i really like it! It hasnt broken me out which most sunscreen ive tried will (usually in 2 days i will get lots of clog pores!). I got one in rose color. It comes out pinkish (brightens up my skin) and the coverage is good! I guess i can use this alone too on lazy days hehe. Its very watery so it goes on easily thus i dont use a lot every time. It isnt sticky at all and i find that it controls my sebum (t zone) well!! I dont have to blot at all throughout the whole day! Makes my makeup looks as flawless as ever! I use it together with the dior's powder foundation ive bought and they give me a perfect flawless look without looking heavily made up! Love this combination!! Will try it for a few more days and im off to buying the full size!!! Guess im gonna be a dior convert! Lol

Dior skin forever extreme

Got myself a sample (colour 020. Somewhere in the middle according to the sa) from dior's counter after reading raves of this compact foundation. Tried it for 2 weeks (the sample is generous!! It still look as good as new after 2 weeks of use!!) n finally i bought one! This can be consider as my first foundation in my life so far! Lol! I had been using only mineral powder till now..anyway this is my review:

Packaging: nice! Comes with a velvet cover. Looks elegant. Compact powder's case comes with a magnectic closure (inside. Cant be seen)

Coverage: powder is super fine. Coverage can be build up by layering without looking cakey at all! Covers my pores well. Skin just look flawless with this!! Best of all, it stays the same throughout the day! No need for touch up! (i have combination skin).

Best thing is it didnt break me out! Important point! Lol! loving it!! Go get one!! Lol!

Received a sample for their toner and sunscreen (makeup base with spf35) too. Will review in my next post!

Hong kong Trip

Went to hk early this month n bought lots of skincare products! Esp from sk2.. Haha. Surprisingly, sk2 is much cheaper in hk than in japan! N i got plenty of free gifts!!

Sk2 facial treatment clear lotion

I first got to try these as i bought a starter 14 days trial kit which consist of a small bottle of this, a 75ml facial treatment eccense, a tiny tub of skin signature cream, a piece of facial treatment hydrating mask and some cotton pads. I was a bit skeptical about using this on my skin as it contains a tiny bit of bha and aha.. My skin did not react well (brokeout) with paula's choice bha thus i thought my skin just dosent like bha.

I pour this generously onto the cotton pad provided and wipe it through my t zone first follow by my cheeks. It did not sting at all and the cotton pad came off a little yellowish though ive just cleansed my skin with an aha/bha cleanser! Just after 1-2 use, i noticed that the pores on my nose looks almost gone and the blackheads are almost nowhere to be seen! (i do not have terrible strawberry nose but i do have visible pores with tiny black dots when i look closely at my nose but now they are gone!)

I use it in conjunction with the facial treatment eccense and skin signature cream.

Scary yea? (the cotton pad) lol

毛穴 powder

Bought this pore powder from the drugstore at only about sgd$20! I was rather reluctant to try cosmetics from the drugstores as im very breakout prone so i feel safer to buy higher ends products.. But this powder is highly raved in cosme.net (a review site for all cosmetics and skincare in japan) so i decided to try it out.

Been using for about a month (everyday) and no breakouts!! It contains some moisturising ingredients too. Totally not drying though it seems to control oil rather well.

Coverage.. Needless to say! Amazing! See my photos! It covers very well without looking too heavily made up and dosent clog the pores.. Amazing powder! Im not using anything under nor on top of this powder.

This comes in 3 shades and i bought the medium beige (for normal skin tone). It also comes with a really soft and fluffy sponge! Love it!
