My Favourite Beauty Products For My Face and Neck


I'm currently using Safi Balqis Perfect 10 range. But I only use the facial cleanser, the daily moisturizer, and eye contour cream.. So far so good, especially the cleanser, one of the best I've ever used. Sure I've tried  all kinds of different brands of facial cleanser, but this is simply the best. It's been 5-6 months I've used these.
The cleanser is not drying for my skin..it's not easy for me to find a non-drying cleanser for my skin with special needs..now I've found Safi Balqis Perfect 10, I'll never change!! The best cleanser ever...

This is the first eye cream for me, I think it's ok..Don't really see much different on the eye area.






This original Hazeline Snow has been around for many years. My aunt recommended it when I was in high school. A good moisturizer especially  for my oily T-zone. Has really cool sensation and nice fragrance. Can be doubled as tinted moisturizer and beauty cream. Some, like my aunt, use it to treat sun burn (I've never tried))



This one is almost the same. The only difference is that it is a lightening cream. It's also good, tho my friend said that the yellow one is better coz it's original and more moisturizing. As for me, I don't feel the difference.


Oh, by the way, this is my fave make up item. I don't really use much make up these days, not like during foundation time.


Silky Girl Lash Prism Mascara
I've been using this since high school, low price and great performance. I don't need those high-end products or those with double wands. This is truly okay. Oh in the next post I think I'll talk about a lot of other make up items I like :)

I Freaking Have Eczema!!!

My skin tends to get dry and flaky easily, especially on the soles of my feet, my palms, nose and mouth area. Sometimes on my neck and ears but very seldom. This is due to a skin condition called Eczema.


My palm and soles are a little too dry compared to other areas of my body. Thus they need constant moisturization in the form of lotion and cream.






This is very creamy and moisturizing..it's Betamethasone and Valerate, of course~
only wear it at night sometimes-the one that I got from clinic smells really really bad.

And also these that I've been flashing around:






So in public places especially when it's windy(beach etc.) or classroom (air-cond), I shamelessly take out my lotion and lip balm and apply them. I don't care if people frown coz the lecturer is teaching or something. I freaking have ECZEMA people!!! And I'm not happy or proud of it. It's more of a curse, but there's a silver lining. I've learned to look high maintainance . ugggh =_=


I don't care if you wanna stare or say anything, do you people wanna see me suffer when I have terrible rashes the next day due to lack of moisture and walk around with flaky reddish skin..Oh yeah it happened before, lots of time..You just don't happen to see them cos I 'm better at taking care of myself these days. Oh, I'M HIGH MAINTENANCE!!   =_=

My Favourite Beauty Care Products

So, some people see me as a high maintainable girl. Why? Coz as son as I enter the air conditioned class, I will always discreetly take out my beloved lotion and apply it on my hands..Onlookers may frown,,oh they do sometimes..but they don't know why..




As we all know, be in an air condotioned room is drying to yr skin and hair too. But for me, it's more drying, so I have to be careful to always apply and reapply coz f my skin condition




The truth: I have eczema, not an acute one. Thank God it's quite mild, tho sometimes it does get a lil worse.


So, this is the must have item that I carry around:
(I swear to God that this is not for merely cosmetic purposes)


Johnson's Baby lotion..

sometimes I use Garnier Aqua Defense Non Stop Moisturizing lotion, smells better than Johnson's, ok a lot better..but I still love Johnson's Bay ^^




This is also a must have..this one is so good..When I get dry lips, I don't just get you people normal dry cracked lips..it's worse..it stings and has burning sensation- trust me it happens many time before (when I wasn't this high maintainance)


As my skin is dry, I put Vaseline every night on my lips. And lotion on my hands and legs.






This is important as after brushing teeth the toothpaste is really drying to my lips..(I'm not being obsessed with dry skin, I have Eczema, gimme a break!!)


I must say this petroleum jelly is so good. I buy one jar can last for almost a year as I only wear at night. And also this jelly is multipurpose. As how I use it this way.

Vaseline For Your Flip-Flops/Sandals

Hey guys, 


Have you ever wear those cute flip-flop for all day long and suddenly realized you get bruised on yr feet when the straps are? Or as you've been wearing it for a while you realized it hurts as the rubber straps kinda press on yr skin? Hurts, doesn't it? I even got some scars on my feet because of it. Not good~







Ouch..my super cute Roxy sandals




But now worry no more!  


Coz there is a way to wear that super cute flip-flops without pain or bruise
The answer is Vaseline! Yes, that petroleum jelly...
How?
You put it under yr flip-flop straps and apply evenly. The straps get greasy, that when you put the flop on they are quite slippery. This is good coz there's less friction. Voila!! Now you're good to go. The flops won't hurt anymore. I've been doing this for months when I found out this tips on the internet. Happy trying !!!!

My Favourite Hair Products

What I'm using these days:



I totally love Elseve Smooth-Intense range! It delivers what it says and the price is reasonable.



The hair mask- it's kinda too oily, I like the old version- the one that has to be rinsed better.

The serum-not really my taste..it kinda take away the volume..but it is very moisturizing.

What I like to do is, I stick to this range but sometimes alternate it with products from other brands above:




My fave dove serum.-the best serum I've ever try..seriously it is moisturizing..u kinda sleep in the night with it
Oh the smell, I love it!!




Sometimes, I used this Avon Naturals Anti Dandruff Shampoo with Aloe Vera when my scalp feels itchy..tho it's quite drying..




Luckily I have this:


I'm so in love with this conditioner, TRESemme' Salon Slik- one of the best for me!
It's cheap and works too, just like it's slogan: “Professional. Affordable.”



I tried this one..still have a lot..only use sometimes coz don't like the smell..and it's sticky too..hate stickiness!!



Lucido-L Super Hard Hairspray: Oh I regret buying this.. seriously..it's so bad..ok so the strength part is kinda good but when u spray it, then comb yr hair, white residue is form..it's so ugly...nooo..I just used it a couple of times..I don't know what to do with this thing...:(


So, those are some of the hair products I've been using recently. Some are good, some are bad, we just have to experiment to get the best for ourselves. Btw, my friend Sofe recommended Liese hairspray, saying that it's so good. But I haven't try it, will soon :)

Speaking of Liese, I kinda interested to try it's Bubble Hair Dye  ^^

I'm thinking of.......Beauty Products Review~

Wohoo...For the first time ever ni aku nak buat review pasal produk kecantikan. Tak pernah2 lagi ni..huhu

Rasa cam best pulak..Lagi pun aku memang suka la bab-bab produk-produk ni. Selalu jugak aku ikut perkembangan. Kadang2 ada jugak kwn 2 aku tanya mana shampoo best, mascara ke yg best tanya pendapat aku. FYI, aku memang suka bab2 kecantikan ni,  memang dulu sampai skarang ada cita2 nk jd make up artist ke pemilik spa ke..best siot..huhu..tp dah terambik TESL nk wat mcm mana.

Anyway, aku da lama tak guna BM dalm blog or dalam penulisan (kecuali dlm chat, tp bnyak BI gak)..nnti org kata aku perasan mat saleh plak kan...tak guna2 bhasa Melayu apa kes minah ni (dah kena dah pun-banyak kali)..ok2 so aku guna bm untuk pos kali ni..dlm sibuk nk exam last paper hari selasa ni pun aku smpat lg tulis blog..huhu

OK, so the review will be in the next post, not this one of course..bear with me ok..or move on..hahaha.

Peace~
