*Review* Juju - Whitey Bihacon Whitening cream

Hellllloo! Today I'm here with a juju product! Woo! Hehe ^^ I have taken lots of photos with this one =D Analyse away! This is a gel based product which whitens your skin. It comes in a cute package and the product is placed in a plastic container. This cream is very light .. So for me it's not suited at all as my skin just become so dry a few minutes after applying but for those that do not need much moisture you could give this a try =) Besides the product being thin I am still trying it out to see the outcome of the lightening effects, just for you guys ^^ I am currently applying my normal moisturiser onto my skin and then applying the whitening cream on a few minutes after and not to disappoint but I have been using this for around a month and I can't spot much, if any difference in my skin tone .... But I guess I'll wait it out and I'll tell you if there are any changes when I come to the end of the juju =} It's open ..

Cheap Chit Chat's juicy lipgloss!

Hello my friends! I have posted this post as quick as I could! There's something urgent I need to tell you UK livers .... GO TO POUNDLAND!! As I was roaming around my local town centre, I wandered into poundland in hope of finding an advent calendar (yes, I'm slightly late =D) only to be let down ... They had NONE! D= I was devistated but I came across the makeup section and saw this interesting looking product ... So I thought what the hay, it's only £1, might as well try it out and that's how I came to buy this sweet little lipstick! I tried it out as soon as I could when I got home (I.E. a few minutes ago) and I must say this juicy lipstick is a perfect for me! I first tried it on my hand and woah could you see the 'juicy' in it. It has nice sparkles which really makes it look yummy hehe! . Application: The stick glides on the lips very smoothly Colour: I purchased the coral colour which is lovely orange with sparkles making lips look alive and mo

Mandom Beauty - Barrier repair concentrate serum *Review*

Hey guys, I'm back with another review! Mandom beauty's barrier repair serum! In the beginning I was iffy about the product as my older sister tried it out before me and she said she did not like it at all as it irritated her skin. A couple of weeks later after debating whether to use it or not (I have the same skin type/problems - dry skin and facial eczema, and let me say I've only tried this product 3 or 4 times and I absolutely love it! I like the packaging it's simple white packaging with a blue pump which releases the serum entices means also the baby face on the package. I normally use 2 pumps to cover my neck and face. The serum spreads over the face smoothly as it has a gel-like texture and is fragrance free which means it won't irritate my skin. When applied on my eczema it stings a little but soon gets used to it, hydrating it well. The hydration is so good that I don't even have to use moisturiser after it !! It didn't smooth my skin as wel

Kilo off *Review* My Fitness Pal APP!

Hello! I've been trying to loose weight for a super long time but never have been really committed to doing it because I'm pretty lazy =P ... Yesss, I bet your thinking the same thing ;) ... As I was in Hong Kong I saw tons and I mean TONS of weight loss supplements (darn should of taken a picture!) and after much consideration I decided to try some (because there was an offer ;D) I was drawn to kilo off as there was two type - pill form and sachet form. I went for the sachet form as it you only need to take it once a day and the pill one you get a morning pill, an evening pill and a night pill, they all do different things but I wasn't too keen on taking three as I'd probably forget. I thought this would be a great idea for starting off a weight loss programme! Before I tell you my story I will tell you the deets of the product. Each box comes with ten sachets so if you can so the math - three boxes will last you a month-ish! The instructions on the box say di

Tony Moly Appletox smooth massage peeling cream *Review*

I recently purchased Tony Moly Appletox peeling cream as I was looking for a gentle exfoliater (Is that a word?) I can across this! It has super cute packaging! Hard to resist! ^^ This is the description from sasa (and yes, it was taken directly from the site ;P): Tony Moly Appletox Smooth Massage Peeling Cream contains keratin extracted from green apple, papaya and other fresh vegetables to provide moisture and to better eliminate waste and clean up old skin cells. The active fruit acids contained in green apples eliminate cuticles in pores, allowing the skin to have more effective absorption of the nutrients provided by masks and other daily skin care products. The keratin extract of papaya leaves the skin fresh, transparent and clean. By giving a massage, you will make your skin healthier and livelier. And also the directions: After cleansing face, apply an appropriate amount to face. Avoid mouth and lip areas. Gently massage for 1-2 minutes. Leave it for about 30 s

Natural beauty : Milk for skin care

Milk has been widely known as a beauty treatment as it whitens softens, soothes and nourishes the skin. It also prevents irritation (great for my eczema) ! It has many vital nutrients that your skin needs. It has proteins, calcium, lactose, fat, vitamin A, B12, D and zinc. And I must say I am a fan of Milk! It's great! It makes you full - promoting weight loss and does wonders for your skin! I approve!! Some of my favourite milk remedies .... Banana and milk facial: For the Banana and milk facial you will need well... A banana (half a banana will do) and milk (Just enough to make a paste with) =D yum~ Leave on for 15-20 minutes and rinse off! Skin looks even and smoother and feels refreshed! Simple Milk facial: Pour some milk into a bowl - if you have oily skin preferably use semi-skimmed milk, and dip a facial sheet mask into the bowl of milk ( or you can use cotton pads - that's what I do!). Let the milk absorb ad when ready apply onto the face - you may need to

Grab the look - 2012!

In today's post I shall be showing you how to achieve the look for 2012 ! This year it's all about the eyebrows ! So fill in those babies like there's no tomorrow! You don't need to be gentle, just grab a eyebrow pencil and line your eyebrows and fill-away! You want to achieve a thick and full eyebrow(s). Thicker eyebrows mean less eyeshadow you need to wear so go natural on it. Start with brown and fill the lid to the crease and then a gold shimmer colour around the eye to highlight and add 'pop' and depth to make the eyes look more 3-D! We all know that a symmetrical face is pretty so for my personal needs I have drawn another mole on the other side of my face and made it darker to draw attention to the lips! As for the lips , you need to make them plump and kissable so some pink/red lip gloss will do the job. To make them even more irresistible, when applying the lip gloss go slightly over your lip line and then add some lip liner. Now, my beauti

Koji lash specialist - Long and separate mascara *Review*

Hello Everybody! I'm back with another review for the Koji Lash specialist - long and separate mascara . I purchased this in Hong Kong in SaSa for around HK$89 - I think. Firstly, when I tried this mascara initially I didn't think much of it as there wasn't much length to my lashes at all but then I realised I used it wrong . Yes, I know what your thinking,  how is it possible to use mascara wrong,  but when it comes to me i'm even able to use a pen the wrong way! (Hehe clumsy me!) so I tried it again but this time looked at the pictures on the packaging as i couldn't read any of it =P ! After using it for the second time I actually seen noticeable length to my lashes! They were very long indeed ! Packaging!                                     Mascara tube & wand! It isn't too clear but if you look closely you are able to see fibres sticking out of the wand - it's a bit hard to apply, especially on bottom lashes. No make-

SANA Soy Milk Whitening Cream *Review*

Hello guys ! Today I'm going to review a product by SANA which is the soy milk whitening cream which was purchased in Hong Kong for HK$89 which is approx. £7.42 !! Packaging : This product actually caught my eye by its packaging as the style was simple yet attractive. The covering was clear and you can see what the actual container of the product looks like which is a plus point. Ingredients : After I picked up this product I looked at the ingredients. I heard that soy milk was good for the skin so I wanted to try out this product. What surprised me was that the product did not react at all with my dry and eczema skin, it actually hydrated it slightly. Texture : The cream is actually a gel. The product smoothes nicely onto the face but it leaves a 'film' on your face which keeps in moisture (makes your face look oily hehe), so i wouldn't recommend using it right before you go out =P ! Whitening : To begin with, I didn't see much effect on my skin and I

Barbie King Size Brown Lens!

HiHi Guys,           I've recently purchased the Barbie King Size Brown contact lenses and eyelashes! It came to around £23. Candy Magic Big Size Brown  Brand: EOSOrigin:  South Korea Water content: 38% Diameter: 14.5 mm with 16.0 mm effect Base Curve: 8.6 Duration: 1 year disposable    So here's what i think of them: Plus Points:  * The first time with them in they looked great and the colour was lovely! * At a good price  Sadly, the negatives overweigh the positive on these contacts =(  * They were not very confortable for more than 6 1/2 - 7 hours * The colour was slightly fading * The colour wasn't bright enough against my very dark brown eyes (unless you were seriously close)  Here's pictures ! What was included in my package ^^... My contacts with a contact lens case enclosed in a pouch. A cute 'Due date' card and instructions! Also, the eyelashes I purchased from the same site =D! Attempt of taking a picture of the colour...
