Majolica Majorca Brow Powder

Majolica Majorca Brow Powder for full brow lovers

Majolica Majorca Brow Powderwas sitting idle and neglected on my vanity table for god knows how many years. It was hardly touched because of its’ inability to produce defined brows – you know, the kind that gives you a sharp and distinct shape.  Things changed. In recent weeks, I found myself picking Majolica Majorca Brow Powder from among the eye brow stash […]

Moist Diane Repair Shampoo

Review | Say goodbye to split ends with Moist Diane Repair Shampoo

Don’t throw away a shampoo you hate, for it may end up being the best you’ve ever had. That is a real life account. What’d prompted me to write this review was an immense disdain for Moist Diane Repair Shampoo. Little would I have expected that in the process of crafting this review, I ended up discovering one good thing

Shiseido White Lucent Eye Cream

Shiseido White Lucent Eye Cream promises to reduce dark circles | REVIEW

Do you face this problem when your tear troughs appear more obvious with age, creating shadows that make you look tired all the time? I started noticing perpetual shadows underneath my eyes when I hit my 30s.

Kose Medicated Sekkisei Day Essence

Review of Kose Medicated Sekkisei Day Essence | A Japan must-buy?

Have you ever been lured by the dark blue elegant bottles of Kose Medicated Sekkisei when shopping in Japan? They were always prominently displayed on the shelves, and bundled with great discounts. Although Kose was not on my Japan-must-buy list, I thought I had to get a product from this brand. After some thoughts, I bought a day lotion –

Asience Treatment Oil

Review of Asience Intensive Treatment Oil | Add healthy sheen without oiliness

A recent oil that I’ve tried was highly raved in the online blogosphere. But I absolutely hated it! Yes, I’ve used a very strong word because this Oshima Tsubaki Oil can transform your tresses into oily streaks of smelly hair. On the contrary, my favourite treatment oil as of now is Asience Intensive Treatment Oil.  Over the past 20 years,

Hada Labo Gokujyun Face Mask

My first favorite face mask | Hada Labo Gokujyun Mask

I wasn’t a firm believer of face mask. I’d always thought of paper mask as an indulgence or a relaxation tool that feels good, but doesn’t really produce any benefits that an intensive moisturizer couldn’t deliver. Most masks made me feel this way until I chanced upon Hada Labo Gokujyun mask more than 5 years ago. It was the first

Aqualabel Jelly Essence

Review | Shiseido Aqualabel Jelly Essence a 4-in-1 essence? It depends

“Shiseido Aqualabel Jelly Essence a 4-in-1 essence? Don’t count on it.” That was the original title of my draft based on my usage a couple of months ago. Today, I have to rewrite the entire post. Here’s why.   A 4-in-1 Essence, but only during Hot Climate Shiseido Aqualabel Jelly Essence was marketed as a product that replaces 1) Astringent,
