Finished Products in November 2010

Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Clarifying Lotion

I've finally finished this big bottle of toner (okay, it's not that big but to me it is big :p). I've reviewed this toner few months ago, you can read it here. Although it did work to clear my acne and kept it at bay but the alcohol scent is just strong for me, so I feel really glad that I've finished it. Since I still have a few toners to use, I don't think I'll repurchase this anytime soon.

The Face Shop Post-Acne Nighttime Spot Eraser

This spot eraser is a must for me now! I will feel that something's missing if I don't apply it even just for one night. As I've said on my review, it works effectively on new scars but not so much on old scars. But with continuous uses, the old scars do get lighten in a period of time. I've repurchased this of course!

Mentholatum Acnes Point Clear

I used this point clear on new blemishes/pimples. It did work but not very effective, it took more than a few days to reduce the redness and to shrunk the size. I'll keep looking for a better product, so no repurchase for this. 

I've just realized that all three products are acne-related! I guess that means I'm really desperate for my acne problems, haha!

Okay, till next time!

Weekend in Singapore

Last weekend, I went to Singapore with my sister as she was going there to submit her university application. Of course I wouldn't want to miss the chance to tag along with her :D. We went to a couple of our fave restaurants there with our cousin and enjoy the food. Here's the food porn :p.

Haul from Taiwan

As I've said on my previous post, I went Taiwan by joining a tour group so I've expected that I won't get much time to shop. But nevertheless, I still got to grab some beauty stuffs there :D

A bunch of MBD masks that I bought to share with my sisters and friends. They were doing a promo in Cosmed for buying five packs of any kind of MBD mask from natural line, we'll get one pack of White-tea Peony from luxury line for free. They told me that this promo will last until May. I think it's a pretty great deal.

Of course I didn't want to miss FaceQ masks that from the same company of MBD masks. I got all four of them :D

(Green: Luffa Adlay, Blue: Ocean Aloe, Red: Red Pomegranate Co Q10, Purple: Grape Seed Green Tea)

Last haul from Watsons. I only went to one Watsons store there, and was disappointed that it didn't have some stuffs that I wanted. But still, I got to buy some stuffs from my list.
 

First row: Cleansing sponge, Kawae oil blotting sheets, Mentholatum Acnes UV Tint, Carmex lip balm in green apple.

Second row: Hadalabo Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask, Nexcare Acne Dressing, MM Lash Expander Frame Plus, Canmake Nudy Glow Rouge in 04 sugar milk tea, MM Honey Pump Lip Essence, Koji eyelash curler no.71, Canmake Cream Cheek in 01 peach dream.

 

I didn't buy the Hadalabo Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Lotion but my sister did and she's loving it right now. Instead the lotion, I got the masks. Haven't tried them though. 

I was going to check out the Lush store in Taiwan but sadly it turned out that Taiwan's Lush got some problems (read here) and all of their retail stores were closed on the exact day when I was in Taipei. Sigh... What a coincidence...

That's it for my Taiwan trip's posts :) Till next time!
