July Favorite Products; For Clear, Blemish and Spot free Skin.

Friday, July 22nd, 2011

Hey you guys!

 

ye ye, lamanye tak update, dah bersawang dah blog ni haha. Sorry sangat-sangat, I ade midterm exam sepanjang 2 minggu ni, so yeah, I have to stay focus on my studies. That is a valid reason for not being able to update my beloved blog, right? Study must and will always come first. :) Syukur alhamdulillah 3 papers dah habis, Computer law, Land law and also Company law, phewwww. *kesat peluh. Next Tuesday, I have Equity and Trust paper, wish me luck, guys! *nervous*

Ok disebabkan I dah lama tak bercerita pasal products di blog I ni, hari ni I nak update pasal 3 products yang I tengah sukaaaaaa sangat-sangat.As a skincare junkies, I tend to buy a lot of unnecessary stuffs just for the sake of testing it out and if that product doesn’t impress me or the performance was just so-so; I won’t re-purchase it. So ye, saya memang fussy bab-bab ni, hehe tapi biarlaaaa. :P

Sebenarnye I ade beli banyak jugak barang-barang baru untuk bulan ni, but this three is the best and it had become apart of my skincare regime, yang lain tu I cuma guna sekali sekala je.

 

(Ceutical Scar Potion yang botol kuning kat bawah, Ceutical Scar Serum yang botol putih di atas)

1. Ceutical Scar Potion

Price: RM 10 for 3ml (1 bottle)

Shop at: I bought this from Sharon, a friendly seller at Vanity Talks fan page. (click the link)

Ratings: 5/5 stars.

What is it for? : To reduce the size and color of acne spots.

Review: How can I not love this potion? Seriously. Haha I mula-mula dapat potion ni waktu I beli masker ceutical dari Sharon and she gave me this potion to give a try. After that, I saw a significant different on the brown color of my old acne spots. So I have to get more of them, hehe and now that I have restock a couple of bottles of this potion, I have to say that this is one of my favorite brown-spot remover, simply because it works on my skin and cheap.

Sebab kulit I jenis pigmented skin, maknanye kulit I sangat mudah untuk dapat bintik-bintik coklat hasil dari gigitan nyamuk gigit sekalipun *sigh* so this product is great whenever I have to deal with brown spots left by acnes or insect bites. :D

Dan macam yang I cakap, product ni I guna untuk pudarkan bintik-bintik coklat di kulit I, bagi sesiapa yang nak kurangkan bintik-bintik coklat dengan lebih effective, boleh cuba Ceutical scar serum bersama-sama dengan Ceutical Scar Potion ni, both works wonderful together, so far I dah guna kedua-duanya hampir sebulan lebih, memang nampak bekurang sangat-sangat warna coklat acne spots I tu, now I’m almost back to my old clear skin. :) So yeah, two thumbs up of from me!

 

2. Origins Spot Remover


Price: RM53.00 for 10 ml

Shop at: Origins counter in Parkson.

Ratings: 5/5 stars.

What is it for? : Can be use to unclog pores, treat small whitish bumps on skin, zap away any potential small pimples and blemishes.

Review: I have 2 bottles of this and I always carry it around me, yeeeeee kecohnye saya. :P I always believe that prevention is better than cure. So sebelum mana-mana lubang roma yang tersumbat dan membengkak tu jadi jerawat yang merah meradang, lebih baiklah I kawal dia awal-awal kan? So this is my combination skin best friend! :)

Tapi perlu ingat yang benda ni ada Salicylic Acid, jadi bagi mereka yang berkulit kering, kulit korang mungkin mengelupas kalau guna terlalu banyak benda ni.

So my suggestion is guna dengan cotton bud dan cuma titikkan betul-betul di tempat yang ada blemish atau clog pores, letakkan 2 kali sehari dan keesokannye insyallah boleh hilang.

Notice: I pernah cuba letakkan Spot Remover ni pada jerawat jenis pustules, it didn’t work. So bagi I, untuk jerawat yang ada pustules tu, I kena jugak gunakan Oxy10 or Oxy5. So disebabkan ramai readers yang asyik bertanya mengenai cara I mengatasi jerawat. Please take note of this;

Jerawat yang merah meradang, yang sakit ketika di sentuh dan nampak membengkak, itu jenis jerawat yang ada pustules. JANGAN sesekali di picit jerawat jenis ni sebab dia ada bakteria yang mungkin merebak di bahagian lain dan akan menghasilkan parut yang sangat sukar untuk dihilanhkan. Guna products yang mengandungi Benzoyl Peroxide bila berdepan dengan jerawat begini, bagi yang tak tahan dengan Benzoyl Peroxide (kulit mengelupas, kering dan pedih), gunakan Sulfur.

Salicylic Acid,sesuai untuk jerawat yang bila di sentuh tidak sakit, tidak berwarna merah dan tidak membengkak. Jerawat jenis ni terhasil dari lubang roma yang tersumbat atau blackhead sahaja, so yeah, Salicylic acid works well for this type of acne.

So please take note of the type of acnes that you’re having and then choose the correct treatment for it, okay. :)

 

3. Trilogy Purifying Masque

Price: RM99 for 50ml

Shop at: I bought this at TNS Skin Lab counter.

Rating: 5/5 stars.

What is it for? : Deep cleansing the pores and remove impurities for a clear smooth skin.

Review: This mask is impressive. I love my Origins Clear Improvement mask that I’ve being using for almost 2 years, but this Trilogy clay mask might actually come in between my love relationship with Origins you know, haha :P

Bagi sesiapa yang pernah cuba clay mask, kita semua tahu apa akan jadi kalau clay mask tu kita guna terlalu kerap dalam masa seminggu kan? Yeah, lubang roma memang terasa bersih, kulit kurang berminyak etc, tapi kulit akan kering dan terasa sedikit ketat lepas tu kan? Well duhhh, it’s a mud that you put on your face, what else do you expect? :P

But not with this one though, mask Trilogy ni tak buat kulit I terasa kering atau terasa ketat sama sekali, all thanks to the Rose Geranium oil and Rosehip Oil ingredients in this mask.

Lepas pakai, kulit dan lubang roma memang terasa sangat bersih dan kulit I jugak terasa lembut, gebu dan memang tak kering sama sekali. I just loveeee this mask. And I do love the idea that it is made from natural ingredients, which is not only good for my skin but it also have less impact on the enviroment.

 

 

Disclaimer: All of the products that I have stated were tested on my skin. (types: combination, pigmented and a little sensitive skin) Do bare in mind that whatever that works for me, may or may not works for your skin, so do consider doing some research and do not rely 100% from my review; it is an honest and non-profitable review, but everything that I have stated is purely based on my own judgment, opinion and experiences, I am no professional but just a law student who happens to love and passionate about beauty related stuff. :)

 

p/s: Yeah, kena letak disclaimer. :P Anything just feel free to ask me, apa yang I tahu mesti I akan jawap, mana yang I tak tahu tu, maaflah I tak berani nak memandai pulak kan :D

Hari Blur Saya

Sunday, July 10th, 2011

 

Hi korang!

Oh oh, minggu ni I rasa minggu paling banyak benda memalukan dan mengarut yang berlaku kat I. Tak tahu kenapa, maybe sebab minggu ni I macam blur-blur sikit, mood ke kelas pun macam malas-malas jek, rupa pun selekeh-selekeh aje (erk not that anyone really care if I’m not-so-selekeh anyway, hehe)

It all begin in my Land Law class, haaa one of the most nerve wrecking subject for this semester. Masa tu kelas tutorial, macam biasa semua student kena prepare dan jawab soalan-soalan tutorial yang lecturer dan assign-kan dan baca semua cases yang relevant dengan chapter tu. So there I was, being lazy as usual, malam tu emo jadi tidur lambat, dah tidur lambat automatically la mata I pun celik lambat. Alarm handphone dah berbunyik 3 kali baru la kelopak mata I berjaya bukak.

As usual, I was rushing, kelam kabut mandi semua. I was late and wasn’t feeling so well. Jadi I pegi klinik pagi tu sebab malam semalamnye I rasa tak sedap badan. Lepas balik dari klinik, I dah terlepas kelas tutorial pada pukul 10 am, jadi terpaksa la jadi ‘pendatang tanpa izin’ dan menumpang kelas tutorial dari group lain yang start pukul 11 am. Nasib baik Nina pun ade dalam kelas tu, kalau tak kesepian la jiwa dan raga I bila duduk di kelas asing tanpa seorang pun kawan yang bolehdiajar diajak bergossip.

Sepanjang kelas tutorial semuanya berjalan smoothly, lecturer tanya soalan-soalan tutorials, semua student yang ditanya boleh jawab, bila lecturer tanya ada sesiapa yang nak volunteer jawab soalan seterusnye, I pun jawab la soalan tu.Soalan tu pasal case Dr.Ti Teow Siew yang berkaitan dengan land registration. Lepas jawab tu rasa lega sangat la, lecturer cakap jawapan I bagus. Pastu beberapa student lain pulak kena jawab soalan-soalan lain. Tak tahu kenapa kelas kali ni rasa singkat sangat, selalu tu rasa macam mak aihh lengit nak menunggu sejam habis kelas tutorial, tapi hari tu tak pulak.

Lepas semua soalan untuk hari tu dah di jawab, lecturer bagi la pulak nombor-nombor soalan untuk tutorial next week dengan nama-nama cases yang dia nak tanya untuk next classes. Here’s the best part. I didn’t came for my Monday class lecture because I wasn’t feeling well, jadi obviously I memang tak tahu la cases apa yang lecturer dah discuss dalam kelas hari Isnin tu, yang dia nak kitorang prepare untuk next week’s tutorial.

Jadi bila lecturer sebut nama-nama cases tu, I was jotting down all of the cases name like crazy, sebab I nak kena cari cases tu semua dan prepare untuk kelas next week. And that is when it happened. (>__<”)

Madam: Class,read these cases for next week; Khoo Cheng & Ors…Hee Cheng…

I pun kelam kabut tulis kat nota, siap tanya Nina macamane ejaan nama cases tu, karang salah eja sia-sia je tak jumpa cases tu nanti, lol. Nina pun sibuk dok bagitau ejaan nama case tu kat I, jadi I dengan Nina dua-dua tak pay attention apa yang lecturer cakap lepas tu, tiba-tiba dengar lecturer cakap;

Madam; Azi Farhana…

 

I pandang Nina, I bisik “Eh Nina, apa full name case Azi Farhana tu?”

Nina jawab; “Huh? Mana tau, jap Nina check kat notes, ade ke full name case tu, mane yekk”

Dok kitorang kecoh-kecoh cari nama tu, Madam terus lagi cakap

 

Madam: Muhammad Sufian….


I pon kelam kabut tulis nama case tu,tiba-tiba Nina tepuk bahu I.

“Yanaaaaaa, tu bukan nama cases laaaaaa”

“Habis tu?”

 

Tiba-tiba Madam tegur kitorang.

Madam: Are you kidding me? You actually thought that I was giving the name of the cases? I’m taking the student’s attendance now, Liyana! Oh my god, this is the best laaa!

 

Hambek kaaaaaaau!

Madam dengan satu kelas semua dok pakat gelakkan I. Haish malu toksah cakap la ye. I rasa muka I dah tukar kaler purple dah time tu, malu gileeeee. Lepas lebih kurang 5 minit semua orang ketawa, madam pun sambung ambil attendance semua orang.

Rupanye nama-nama cases tu sampai case Hee Cheng je, I pulak pegi bedal catat habis semuanya, sampaikan nama-nama students yang Madam panggil untuk check attendance pon I ambik. Lepas semua student dah nak keluar dari kelas tu, madam sempat mengusik I; “Liyana, I will surely tell this to all of my colleagues! Hahaha”

 

 

Erk, malunyeeeeeeee saya!
