I am super excited and hyped up to report back this holy grail product sent from Bellflower to me. Their brand claims to provide the most intensive and trustworthy skincare solutions with naturalism according to targetted skin troubles of each individuals. It's interesting they picked a flower name as their brand name too. The flower language of ‘Bellflower’ is sincerity, gratitude, grace.

Hi guys! Welcome back to my blog~ Today I will be sharing on a more detailed review of a package sent by Althea which consist of really adorable meringue makeup puffs, sheet masks and also an interesting blackhead removal stick.

A big thank you for kose cosmeport for sending me a big bag of goodies to try out, have fun and pamper myself with~! I received a total of 12 items and had been trying them out on and off for the past 2 weeks.

I was so glad to be able to try out Purito's Centella Green Level All In One Mild Pads. The founder contacted me first and I was kindly gifted a few products in exchange for my honest opinions.

Founded in 2014, Purito is a brand committed to using safe and honest ingredients. They do not perform animal testing, and produce eco-friendly products at reasonable prices.

Founder is very friendly and open to any forms of feedbacks, regardless positive or negative which I am very impressed.

Back with another review for acne treatments! I love acne treatments and I try lots of them, alternate about to see which heals my blemishes most effectively. Wishtrend was kind enough to send me one to try, I managed to do a first impression review within the first two weeks on my IG to hit the review deadline. Now, I am going to do a more detailed post on it.


What is it
The Teca 1% Barrier Cream creates a protective layer to keep moisture and active ingredients
within the skin while strengthening, calming, and improving the skin’s overall health.
Contains Centella asiatica to help regenerate the skin. Helps restore damaged and weakened skin barrier.


Ingredient list:
Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Cetearyl Alcohol, Dimethicone, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Cyclopentasiloxane, Ethyl Hexanediol, Cyclohexasiloxane, Asiaticoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid, Tromethamine, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum, Glyceryl Caprylate, Allantoin, Disodium EDTA

Notable ingredients:

Centella asiatica extract (Asiaticoside, asiactic acid, madecassic acid)
Rich in amino acids, beta carotene, fatty acids, and phytochemicals.
Improves circulation, collagen and skin tissue.
Boosts antioxidant activity, strengthens skin.

Allantoin (Good for Oily & Sensitive Skin)

Comes in a tube packaging which is more hygienic.


There was a silver foil at the tip prior to opening.


It leaves a silicon residue behind. If silicon clogs your pores or break you out, this product might not be for you. However, it works great on my badly flaky, dried out pimple since moisture can be better retained.


No stain left behind. Matt, colorless.

Does it does what it claims?
Claim 1: Helps regenerate damaged skin due to collagen synthesis.
Helps to heal acne. I only used it once a day - at night so the results was not as fast.
Claim 2: Prevents acne scars, lightens pigmentation.
On this, I don't feel it helps to lighten my pigmentation. It helps to heal and soothe, but not in reducing acne scarrings.

Summary of product:

Hi there! It's a requested post so I decided to talk about my favourite skincare profucts for 2017. I have oily and sensitive skin type. So for this post it's gonna be more for people that are facing oily, sensitive, acne prone skin concerns. I only share products with I am very confident with in this post.

I totally understand online shopping can be tricky. I had included my experience of shopping with some stores below. I hope it would be helpful if you are gonna purchase from the seller/s and being afraid. I had paid (real money) when I shopped from the stores below, so no sponsored or paid ads below.

Here's another toner review which I had been using since a few months ago and I realised the contents were still in my draft. I decided to retake the photos since I was free. This was a really pretty toner which caught my eyes immediately.

Since I am done with so many bottles of the Cosrx cleanser, it's time for me to really talk about it here on my blog! I personally LOVE this cleanser to bits and that's the reason why I kept going back for it. Cosrx's packaging were constantly simple and straightfoward. The cleanser comes in a white tube with an eye catching blue and yellow label.

Hello, I am back with another product kindly provided by Wishtrend for my thoughts on it. Initially I was really excited on this because it's my first time trying out a cleanser in a powder form and also, with green tea! Green tea is one of my favourite ingredients as it helps with irritated and acne prone skin. I used to wash my face with green tea lukewarm water thrice a week in the past.

This review took really long and I really apologise for it. I had been testing it out really slowly as it's been really humid in Singapore as it seems like a heavier cream type which I initially thought might not work out as well on me and I wanted to provide a more accurate review on this. I actually decanted this and brought it overseas with me. If you guys had been following me, I had been to korea and the weather was really dry and cold. This sleeping mask worked like my HG Laneige water sleeping mask. I was really afraid of getting clogged pores prior to using it.

Back with another blogpost before I fly off. I had been trying out this cleansing balm for quite sometime and it's actually my first cleansing balm product that I had ever used. Honestly, I still have mix feelings over this. But read on to find out more, who knows it might suit your skin?

Hello readers, I hope you had been doing well! I had not been blogging regularly recently cause of lots of ongoing things but I promise, I will be back! This week, I am back with a sunscreen review. I am pretty picky over sunscreen as the wrong one would break me out badly. Just to add on, I am about to empty this, hence I would like to share my thoughts on it.

Back to review on another moisturiser which I nicknamed it 'awesome'! Basically, I had been loving the products from the Soon Jung range from Etude House. So today I am going to share with you guys my thoughts on this cream. This would be the first product from the range I would like to talk on~

Been using this for a month and all I can say was, this wasn't something I expected it would be initially! I am a fan of BHA all along, AHA too but AHA is something I would only use when my skin texture feels bumpy and rough as it kinda stings my skin. BHA had been one of my all time facourite as I have really oily skin and blackheads here and there.


Firstly, I would like to share more about, what exactly is Mandelic Acid? I totally can relate if you had never heard of it before as I really didn't beforehand either!

Mandelic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid derived from bitter almonds. It is more gentle than Gylcolic Acid but penetrates lesser.

It Targets THREE Main Skin Issues.
1. Wrinkles/Fine lines
It helps by accelerating the cell turnover, by dissolving tiny bonds that hold skin cells together. It aids by removing the dead skin on the skin surface which often causes dull complexions or even fine lines.
Furthermore, It strengthens collagen, which makes your face firmer and more youthful.
Mandelic Acids thins out the outermost layer of the skin called the stratum corneum(aka horny layer). A thinner stratum corneum gives skin a smoother and youthful look.
Don't forget it not only helps to brighten up skin but also protect your skin against free radical damage.
2. Hyperpigmentation & Discoloration
Usage of Mandelic Acid results in a more even out complexion and also in correcting skin tones.
Ever encountered sensitivity like stingy effects when using AHA? That is because of the deep pigmentations different individuals have and this irritation might stimulate pigment-producing cells to produce more melanin(pigmentation). That is why SUNSCREEEEN is needed when you use AHA! Good news is Mandelic Acid is gentler and a safer alternative.
3. Acne
Mandelic Acid contains antibacterial properties which are extremely helpful in helping with acne. It regulates sebum production which lowers the risk of an acne outbreak. Studies had shown that it helps cystic acnes too.



What is it:
Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water is a hydrating and nonirritating exfoliant that can be used daily.
Formulated with Mandelic Acid, which can be used without any irritation even on sensitive skin,
the Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water is an exfoliating treatment that improves the skin tone and
texture while boosting the effectiveness of other products.

Now,

Helps with pigmentation to improve the skin tone and texture. As a mild exfoliator that works on the surface of the skin, safe to use even for sensitive skin to avoid the use of harsh chemical exfoliation. Effective for acne due to its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial properties.


To preserve it's 'freshness', every bottle comes sealed with an aluminium foil as seen above.


Does it does what it claims?
Claim 1: Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water is a hydrating and nonirritating exfoliant that can be used daily.
Although it's said to be suitable for daily use even for sensitive skin, but for super sensitive skin type like me, I would recommend 3 times a week only.
Claim 2: Formulated with Mandelic Acid, which can be used without any irritation even on sensitive skin.
It still stung me a little but was really lesser as compared to the AHA one. I find myself wanting to reach out for this more than Cosrx AHA these days.
Claim 3: The Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water is an exfoliating treatment that improves the skin tone and texture while boosting the effectiveness of other products.
Try using this and you will notice clearer skin tone. It looks brightened and softer. However, it didn't help with pores.

So for those that are on a Budget Buy:
I would recommend to get 2 things.
KLAIRS Best Trial Kit
It's a collection of klairs samples in a set. Tt would be a great opportunity for those who are interested to give it a try, as they might find it risky in investing directly on a full sized.
Cosrx One Step Pimple Clear/Moisture Kit
I had used the One Step Pimple Clear Pad before and yes I do love it! I do recommend people that want to try out the pads to get this mask kit instead.

Quite worth it isn't it? ONE mini toner actually cost $5.



For those that are looking for things to try:
I would highly recommend the followings!
KLAIRS Supple Preparation Facial Toner
This toner is my holy grail, I am completing my second bottle soon. It helps to hydrate and soothe my skin whenever it is irritated. If you haven't tried it, you might wanna give it a try!
By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water
Initially, I did not expect much from this toner but it's really a genius invention. It exflioates gently on sensitive skin types like mine without causing any sensitivity. It helps to clear some of my close comedones.
*Your Mileage Might Vary*

Lastly, Klairs Midnight Blue Youth Activating Drop is one of their latest addition into the Klairs range.
I haven't really tried it out but I am gonna share with you what I had read from it.

What is it:
• The first anti-aging product by KLAIRS.
#MidnightBlue #YoutheningBlue
• Anti-wrinkle product.
• Contains EGF (sh-Oligopeptide-1), bFGF (sh-Polypeptide-1),
   and 95% raw materials for anti-aging.
• Only made with 10 core ingredients without the use of purified water
   as a high concentration and high strength delay-aging serum.

Did you know?
Skin gradually ages and loses elasticity over time. This is a natural phenomenon that can’t be prevented or avoided. However, you can delay the process by replenishing factors lost and damaged over time and protect the skin from direct irritants, such as ultraviolet rays.

How does it help?
On a deep blue night, only the sweetest dreams for your skin.
The KLAIRS Midnight Blue Youth Activating Drop does exactly what it’s named after. It is a night serum used before going to bed that has a blue tint due to guaiazulene in the formula. Made with EGF (sh-Oligopeptide-1), bFGF (sh-Polypeptide-1), and 95% raw materials for anti-aging effects, the EGF and bFGF activate the key factors in the skin to help improve the overall health and quality of the skin.  Although the packaging may be small, it’s only made with 10 core ingredients without the use of purified water as a high concentration/ high strength delay-aging serum.

Hello guys! Back with another cleanser review. I am very skeptical with cleansers especially, so before I agreed to take on this, I actually *scanned* through the ingredient list very closely. To add on, I actually typed in the ingredients manually one by one into Cosdna to check. I haven't seen such a clean ingredient list, beside the Soon Jung cleanser so far. Of course it gained my curiosity.

Here is Althea's first product launched under their own brand! I was really excited to try this out when I first heard about it. As I am a fan of the innisfree no sebum powder, this one from Althea was in a prettier packaging and at a more affordable pricing so I was wondering if this could be a replacement for that.
