This was the first item I tried. After I saw this item on 女人我最大 ,in which 牛爾 recommended Ann who has sensitive/acne prone skin to control her outbreak situation, I went to Watsons to check out the products from the range and went home with this and the So Totally Clean Everyday Cleansing Sensitive Formula Lotion. I have tried out the Seriously Shine Free Mattifying Oil Free Moisturizer for a week or so. I found it to be true to its name. When I apply at night before sleep, I wake up to a relatively matte complexion as compared to the oily greasy one I used to wake up to. BUT...hydrating wise, it is a flat zero. I does NOTHING in the moisturizing section. So you have to beef up on hydrating via other products.
Haven't use this yet as I am still trying to complete my Cucumber The Body Shop Toner. I bought this because I love the Cucumber The Body Shop Toner and I saw that this has cucumber as well! It also has Sea Kelp in which I am curious to see what it will do to my skin (since my final year project was about algae as well). The freaky sciency side of me. Sigh.
Love the smell. Hasn't break me out yet. I like cleanser with green tea in them (or any antioxidants). If not for function, I'll repurchase this because the smell is delicious!
All these masks smell SOOOO good. But I feel they are a bit 'strong'? They do sting my skin when I use them. I need to use them for a bit more time before I come up with my final vadict on them. Hopefully they do work with shrinking zits and purifying my skin like some of the raves online about some of these masks.
The complete family picture of the products I have from the range. Oh wait.... I forgot one.
Its the Rescue Me Acne Blemish Treatment. I have been using this for some days already. I do feel that it does help to shrink the zit. BUT it does nothing to soothe the skin area that is undergoing massive inflammatory process. And...it doesn't lighten the area as it promotes healing. I would say this is EXCELLENT if you are desperate and you are applying makeup on top of it before maybe your wedding/important evening etc as it works pretty fast (i.e one night before). But it doesn't give you that perfect complexion because it doesn't lighten/promote smooth healing. The smell is horrible as well. Oh well, what can I expect from something which is predominately made of sulphur components/ingredients. It stings my skin a bit as well. And it doesn't work on cystic acne. It only does magic on those isolated big zit. For those clustered angry zits, it might actually make them even angrier.
All in all, I love the packaging. The price is excellent. Some of the products actually work pretty well. For its price and quality I would say it is worth a try. You might never know it might be your next holy grail on a budget.
Okay. Stay tune for the next post whereby I'll do my small NYX and ELF haul from smoochiezz.
Till then,
J
