Skema itu HOT

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.

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.

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.

Hello guys!!!

Oh my, lama tu I tak update blog, well sama jugak dengan dah lama I tak dapat tido 6 jam sehari, begitulah jugak dengan lamanya I tak dapat nak update blog skema I ni. So sorry guys! I know I know, tak blogger tegar betul I ni, update once in a while camni. But really, I memang sangat sibuk semester ni, midterms semua dah habis alhamdulillah tapi assignments masih ade 3 yg belum siap *migrain, headache tolong!*

Well, memandangkan I sibuk sangat-sangat sekarang ni, skincare routine I pon jadi tersangatlah simple dan byk jugak la masalah jerawat yg datang menyinggah time stress-stress ni. So hari ni I nak share some of the products yg I guna dan so far banyak membantu I maintain kan kulit dan appearance I. Even though sometimes I only have 3 or 4 hours amount of sleep, I still wanna look my best on the next day.

Oh oh, do take note that I’ve bought all this items since early this year or somewhere around this couple of months, jadi I memang tak ingat la the exact and accurate price for each items, so sorry ye.

1. Vaseline Lip Essence Cherry

Fungsi: Penjagaan untuk bibir kering dan mengelupas.

Price: not sure, RM10 or less I think

Dulu I tak ambik kisah pon pasal kulit bibir yg kering, tak kisah la nampak macam daun kering pon, bibir haku bukan bibir kau *apakah emo tetibe hahaha* but seriously, nothing is more painful than a chapped lip kan? boleh bad mood tau bila bibir pecah pecah ni, nak makan susah dan untuk orang yang sangat-sangat la talkative macam I ni, bila bibir pecah nak bukak mulut bercakap pon takde mood tau! (>__<) So here it is, Vaselines comes to the rescue!!! Yayyy

2. Oxy 5 and Origins Spot Remover

Fungsi: Membantu mengecilkan dan menghilangkan jerawat

Price: Oxy 5 (10g is about rm10 or less) and Origin Spot Remover (rm50 or less)

I rasa kedua-dua product ni la yang banyak menyelamatkan kulit I dari dipicit dan ditonyoh-tonyoh bila I nampak ade jerawat bertenggek di muka I. Serious, time exam memanglah kulit I suka berpesta pora mengeluarkan segala jenis jerawat dlm pelbagai size dalam jumlah yang banyak. Jadi I guna kedua-dua product ni untuk hapuskan jerawat tu semua.

But take note that you should not use Benzoyl Peroxide together with Salicylic Acid, so kalau I guna Salicylic Acid di waktu pagi, malamnye (selepas cuci muka) I akan gunakan Benzoyl Peroxide. Dan cuma letak di bahagian yg ade jerawat, jgn sapu di bahagian lain, so lebih hygienic kalau gunakan cotton bud dan sapukan product tu tepat2 pada jerawat itu sahaja.

Bagi yang tidak tahu, Salicylic Acid is good because it can get rid of all the dead skin cells yg menyebabkan lubang roma tersumbat sehingga terjadinya jerawat tu. But it can also dry up your skin, jadi jangann gunakan banyak-banyak, nanti kulit kering dah jadi satu hal pulok.

Dan Benzoyl Peroxide is great because it kills the bacteria inside the clogged pores, cuma the downside is that some people are sensitive to it. Macamana nak tahu sensitive atau tidak? Berdasarkan pengalaman I, dulu bila guna Oxy10, kulit I akan jadi merah mengelupas tetapi jerawat memang akan hilang, so after a quick search on the internet it was stated that is that is a sign that I am allergic to it, So I guna Oxy 5 je sekarang, hasilnya jerawat tetap akan hilang tapi lambat sikit la, tapi kulit I taklah merah dan mengelupas dah

3. Origins Starting Over Age-Erasing Moisturizer with Mimosa

Fungsi: Penjagaan kulit untuk kulit kusam, kering dan tona tak sekata

Price: RM210

Ini adalah antara krim malam yang I sedang gunakan sekarang, sebab I tak dapat tidur yang secukupnye, kulit I akan jadi kering dan sangat-sangat kusam pada keesokan harinya, so I akan sapu krim malam ni pada muka dan walaupun I dapat tidur yang kurang, kulit I tetap nampak okay dan nampak segar untuk keesokan harinya. Kalau perlukan rating dari I untuk krim ni, I’ll give it 3 out of 5 stars la.

Satu problem I dengan krim ni ialah ia akan menyebabkan jerawat I makin besar pada keesokannya, jadi I cuma guna krim ni waktu kulit I takde sebijik jerawat pun *rarely happen wei haha* tapi tu pun bad experiences I yang baru dua kali berlaku la sepanjang I dah guna krim ni. So I am not entirely sure if this cream was the real culprit behind the mysterious case of pimples gone crazy huge on my face time tu haha

The great thing about this product is that, kulit I terasa sangat lembut keesokannya dan tona kulit pon semakin sekata and the best part, I boleh nampak lubang roma I kelihatan mengecil lepas I guna krim ni. As for the claim about age-erasing, tu I tak pasti la sebab I belum ade kedutan kat muka I lagi, so I tak boleh nak comment on the whole age-erasing claim. In my own opinion, this is a decent moisturizer that makes my skin dewy smooth the very next day, but it is pretty pricey so I guna pun jimat-jimat, lol kedekut betul!

4.Bobbi Brown Corrector in Light Peach

Fungsi: When all the above has fail LOL. (not applicable for lips la haha)

Price: RM100 or less I think.

When all hopes has fail, dan kulit still nampak tak sekata dengan parut jerawat ataupun lebam dibawah mata yang sebijik macam mata panda, don’t give up in your attempt to look and feel good, ladies! *ayat macam iklan tak? haha*

Sesiapa yang dah biasa bermain dengan alat-alat solek, mesti pernah dengar pasal concealer ni. Yeah the price is pricey for a tiny concealer like this but kecik-kecik cili padi okay, I guna sikit je ni di bawah mata, tu pun bila I tak cukup tido and it helps to keep me looking more like a human being instead of looking like a walking panda *but panda lagi cute kot haha*

So far this is my favorite concealer, but makeup is not my forte, so don’t take my advice on this area 100% yeah?  Sebab I jarang-jarang update kan diri I dengan hal-hal makeup semua, I ada pon sekadar makeup yang basic sahaja untuk keperluan I, so I tak berani komen melebih on it. Tapi yeah, kalau kulit dah problem sangat time tak cukup tidur, instead of stressing way too much about it, just fake it once in a while la

My saviour! *peluk cium mereka*

p/s: I will try my very best to reply all the emails and comments that you guys have sent to me during the weekend ye, insyallah. Janganlah cop I sombong weiii, tak baik tau!
