Product Review: Ceutical Gold Nugget Soap Bar

by on January 6th, 2012

Hello guys!

It’s another product review sort of entry! For this entry, I nak buat review product yang telah di hantar kepada I from the lovely Miss Sharon dari Vanity Talks, you guys can check out her FB fanpage on this link.

Thank you so much Sharon for sending  the product over to me and here is my honest and unbiased opinion on it. Oh and she was also very generous to give me a couple of ceutical face masks which I haven’t try yet, and hopefully I could do some reviews on each masks after my final exam is over, insyallah. :D

 

First Impression

Basically, this is a very interesting looking face soap because there is a lot of gold flakes embedded inside it. I was very keen to try it out, once I’ve received the package on my doorstep, I cepat-cepat cuci all my makeup with the makeup remover and try this face soap.

Such a pretty soap!!

On the back of the soap there is a description of the products.

Price: RM20

Where to get it from? -Vanity Talks fanpage

Where can I view this product? -click here and see the product full description.

Product claims: Contain gold flakes and exotic essential oil which helps in making you beautiful inside and out.

My first impression is that I really like the fact that this soap doesn’t give out any weird herbal or medicated sort of smell, which is really really good because I can never tolerate and use any weird smelly product on my face, yucks. So this soap is medium size, it’s not too big like your ordinary household soap but it’s not too small  that it could easily slip from your wet hands either. So the way I use it is that I cut the soap into half and only use half of it, saving sikit kan? :)

 

As for the claims made by the soap, this is what I have to say about this soap after I’ve used it for the last 7 days;

1.Dull skin

-Yeap, my skin does not look dull at all in the picture and no editing whatsoever is made here because pftt what’s the point of putting a picture after I’ve used such product if the picture is altered right? *wink* I could see that my skin looks more clarify after I’ve used the soap.

Tips: Some of you might be wondering how to see whether your skin is dull or not, well take a picture of yourself and see whether the light from the sun or your surrounding area is reflected back from your skin. If so, then your skin is not dull, but if nothing happens then most probably your skin is dull.

This is just something I’ve experienced lah, I have no scientific evidence to back-up my claim though haha.  Basically the reason why I suggested this method to determine on whether the skin is dull or not is because light will be easily reflected when it hit a smooth surface compared to the uneven surface, so when you have way too many dead skin cells accumulated on the top layer of your skin, the layers of your skin will be uneven due to the dead skin cells and dirt. So do exfoliate your skin 2 times a week okay?

2. Brighter skin

-Yeap, my skin does look brighter after each wash. Kinda makes me wanna go and wash my face as often as I can haha but noooooo I can’t do that though -__-“

A satisfied user haha with a little amount of makeup on my face.

I just wanted to show how my skin appears to look like after I’ve used the soap for 7 days. And as much as I am worried and feeling self-conscious when it comes to taking a close-up picture in a High Definition setting on my camera hahaha, I think it would only be fair and just to show a picture in HD when it comes to product reviewing right? :)

3.Even out my skin tones

-I do have a couple of acne spots on my cheeks, and after a couple of use, the spots does appeared less visible then it was last week. Take note okay, it look less visible but it doesn’t actually gone for good la, it takes time for any spots to diminish from your skin completely unless you resolve to a chemical peel which is erk, I dunno, I’ve never do it and not even planning to do it soon. :P

The not so less makeup face hahaha.

4. No irritation and allergic reaction

-Yeap you heard it, none whatsoever. Yayyy! ^_^ I have a huge pimple on my forehead a couple of days before I started using this soap and once I’ve used this soap, it doesn’t lead to any irritation on my skin or pimple and I did mentioned in my previous entry that my skin is quite sensitive, but so far I haven’t see any redness or whitish bump appear on my skin.

So I think this soap is mild enough for my sensitive skin. :) Because in the past, there are a couple of products that cause a lot of whitish bump on my face, so I do suggest that you guys test out any type of new product on your neck before applying it directly on your face.

 

4.Doesn’t cause any dryness or flakiness on my skin.

My biggest concern when it comes to soap kind of face cleanser is the fact that it could cause a drying skin effect on my skin. -___-“ that is what usually happened to my skin before. But after a week using this soap, I am soooo happy that my skin doesn’t dry out at all and it certainly does not becomes flaky or anything. So two thumbs up for this product!

 

Product Ratings:

I give this product 4 out of 5 star, because I think it is definitely worth a try and I would certainly use it from now on as part of my routine. There’s a lot of soap cleanser out there for you to grab but this one is definitely worth it, it doesn’t cost much at all and the result that I get so far is satisfying. I shall continue using this soap in the future to see how my skin gonna improve afterwards. :)

You guys can check out more products from Ceutical and my all time favorite face mask from this entry in the Vanity talks FB fanpage okay! ;)

Bye bye 2011 and Hello 2012. :)

Hello guys!

Oh yes, sebelum I lupa I nak ambik kesempatan ni untuk ucapkan Happy New Year to everyone! Yay yay 2011 is over now and 2012 is finally here. Jom la kita bukak buku baru dan silalah tutup buku lama tu ye, *nasihat diri sendiri* Hahaha

A lot of you guys have been asking me where have I been and why issit that I rarely update anything on my blog nowadays. Well to be quite honest, I have no idea why I don’t blog as often as I used like 2-3 years ago. Mungkin tak datang mood, mungkin mood datang tapi takde masa nak update, mungkin sengaja nak bikin hati stalker panas sebab tak dapat tahu perkembangan terbaru I (but in the process tu pembaca setia blog ni pon jadi panas dgn i sebab bila bukak blog ni je mereka disajikan dengan entry basi aje, alaaaa maafkan saye!!!)

Location: Danga Bay, Johor Bahru

Haha but seriously *muka serius* I memang tak perasan dah berapa lama I tak update blog ni. Weekday I memang packed dengan classes, assignments,study and cases reading and during the weekend I treat myself by going out with my dear one and friends. In other words, I’m enjoying every seconds of my life, at least before the final exam. Hadoi exam I nanti on bulan February wei, haish baru je nak bergembira kini terpaksa pulak membelek buku dan menghafal cases cit! :P

Oh well, let’s keep this short and sweet.

Thank you mummy, for all the love and guidances.

I’m a wiser, tougher and a more mature version of myself today, all thanks to you. <3

 

I just wanna say that regardless of whatever bad things that has happened to you in 2011, whether you fell, you hurt, you bleed yourself along the way, remember that you managed to survived all that and make it through. So what does it tells you? It tells you that all the hurtful things doesn’t actually kills you, it only taught you some valuable life lessons that you need to learn from. So cherish the gift of today and never let hatred tainted your heart. Believe me, it’s not worth it. :)
