The Adorable Miffy & DEARPACKER Are Here To Save Your Skin

| |
Hi Huneybees,


Recently, I've been letting my fingers do the travelling and shopping via Airfrov. It is a service that allows lets me shop via travelers and to have them help me get those overseas items without me having to fly all the way there or have my purchases go through pesky overseas mailing procedures.

I tend to browse through other requests made and the pro here is that I get to discover new things to try or even explore brands that I've not heard of. But then, the con is that I'm digging deeper and deeper into my pockets. Wahahahaha!

Anyway, that brings us to what I have for you today - DEARPACKER x Miffy collab set. DEARPACKER is a Korean brand manufactured my LG Health Care. They have a lot of skincare products that are differently country themed, using ingredients that are signature to that country to make the masks!


This set (priced at 27,800 won) that I've gotten  features Miffy on 2 of their products - Royal Black Black Tea & Black Rose Mask and Alaska Glacier Soothing Pack. It comes bundled with a pack of oil blotters, a Miffy Mug with cup cover. They all looked so pretty together and so calming to look at...


The box packaging has Miffy in winter clothings and her royal suit, printed on thicker, premium quality hard card instead of the usual flimsy 100gsm looking type. It makes the products so much more 'atas looking', 


The one that intrigues me the most is the Royal Black Mask. It is gel based and once I opened the tub, it smells heavenly with the rose and ceylon extracts, almost as though I'm holding a nice cup of hot tea! Super relaxing...


The mask has 77% rose extract and black tea extract with a blend of aroma oils like camomile, rosemary, lavender, sweet almond oil and Damask rose oil. It helps with the skin elasticity, purifying the skin, soothing, softening and helps with enlarged pores.


Simply use the enclosed plastic spoom to take amount you need and smooth it over your face. Wash off after 10 mins with lukewarm water. 

What I like about it is the ceylon tea bits that kinda scrubs my face as I wash the mask off. My face feels super smooth and moisturised after applying this mask.

I would recommend to use the mask before makeup for that additional moisture you need throughout the day and you makeup will stay flawless through the day, now that you've got the best 'canvas' to work on.

You can also use this mask as a scrub or even as a sleeping mask, but I will recommend to let the mask dry up a little before lying on your pillow as it could be a little messy and sticky... 


Next is the Alaska Glacier Mask. Just like it's name suggests, this little miracle is good to use for our recent weather, especially for those who work outdoors, under the sun.


It is a translucent gel cream with white beads that consist of Alaskan river water and minerals like white birch extract, mint extract, Arnica flower extract, snowrose extract, wild strawberry extract,etc, that helps in relaxing, calming and cooling down the skin.


You can use this as a moisturiser during the summer days and all you have to do is scoop about 2-3 spoons of the gel, apply it all over the face, and massage the product into your skin. Enjoy the chill and I think it makes a good product to use in the morning. It refreshes the skin, waking me up in the process and when its fully absorbed, my skin feels baby smooth, which again allows makeup to go on nicely too!



Their official website is http://dearpacker.lgbeautymall.com/dearpacker.jsp?null and I'm thinking of trying the other range too. Have you guys tried before? What's the verdict?

If you are keen to try out Airfrov too, use this code R1RVJ for S$10 deduction on your very first overseas purchases! :)

[Tried & Tested] Etude House Face Conditioning Cream

| |
Hi Huneybees,


Etude House launched the Face Conditioning Cream just at the right time. I got it in a whim, knowing jolly well, I will be getting it cheaper it Korea, but what the heck, I still bought it and brought it along on my trip.

Right now, this is my favourite must-have! This little baby makes my skin soft, priming it for makeup, whilst keeping my skin moist. I always have this problem of getting dry skin when in cold weather, but this time was different, with the Face Conditioning Cream, I had no trouble at all!

The Packaging
Its white pearly box is exactly the same the colour of the cream. Whilst maintaining its girly feel, this white tube is made of a sturdier and shinier material like your toothpaste, so you won't mess it up with their brand of CC Cream.

The Fragrance
It smells a little like baby powder, delicate and soft, with hints of floral scent.


The Benefits
  •  With Ingredients like Argan, Olive and Coconut oil to moisturise, nourish and control excessive oil
  • Minimizes complex steps from skin care to makeup base to boost makeup condition lightly and simply.
  • Anti-Wrinkle
  • Whitening
  • With added SPF 25 / PA++
 

The Texture
The texture of the product is very creamy, silky and smooth. It is lighter than your usual moisturiser creams and it get absorbed very fast, without leaving any sticky feeling. The skin is just nicely primed and slight whitened, though not as pale looking as CC Cream.


The Review
I only need 50c coin size of the cream for my whole face and after it's fully blended out, my skin is a little brighter and more even-toned with a glowy feel. I have it under my makeup and it adheres to it very well! I didn't need to do any touch ups throughout the day and my skin feels so soft and moisturised even after a day of being out!


So, if you are looking for the all-in-one primer and moisturiser for that glowy, dolly look like the Korean ladies, try the Etude House Face Conditioning Cream!

[What's New] Introducing The CLINIQUE Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+

| |
Hi Huneybees,


I received a little gift recently from CLINIQUE. Promising to be Dramatically Different Again, I knew I was in for some goodie to improve my skin's conditions!


The all new CLINIQUE Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion + is the revamped moisturizer under their line. Being so successful, why change it?

Well, the world has changed, (you know all the pollution and global warming), so our skin care products have to change to suit what we need as well. With Phytofix, Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin and Urea, not only will it help strengthen the skin's barrier to block out the harmful environmental stress, it will also deeply moisturize your skin. Simply apply it all over your face and throat after cleansing and toning your face.


The cream is a pale shade of yellow and fragrance free. I've been using the moisturiser for 3 weeks already and I can feel my skin getting smoother and it works perfectly for my sensitive skin. There are days when my skin will feel dry, especially during that time of the month, but once I got started on the moisturiser, I see a reduce in the dryness. The skin is also so much easier to have makeup on, in fact, I simply need a thin layer of foundation as my skin is glowing smooth. Why hide it?


The CLINIQUE Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion + is available in 2 sizes:
50ml for $28
125ml for $60

It's definitely an affordable moisturiser to keep your skin looking youthful and glowing.
You should give it  a try!

[Tried & Tested] The Body Shop's Nutriganics Drops of Youth

| |
Hi Huneybees,


The Body Shop has launched a youth-enhancing concentrate – the Nutriganics Drops of Youth, to combat initial signs of ageing by using the latest in plant stem cell technology. This innovative concentrate helps to enhance surface skin condition, leaving it looking smoother, fresher and healthier. 


It is the Star Product of The Body Shop that has been selling well through the months. 8 in 10 Asian women now users of Nutriganics Drops of Youth, with every minute, one bottle is sold!




This pre-serum fits into all skincare regimes and is specially formulated with Beech Bud Extract and Community Fair Trade Babassu Nut Oil as well as Plant Stem Cells harvested from Criste-Marine, a hardy plant that is able to survive in the harshest environments and absorbs nutrients from the air around it.



How to use it?

Using the pipette (a dropper syringe-like contraption) provided,  gently massage two to three drops into skin, and allow to sink in before applying your usual moisturiser or serum.





My Thoughts
The packaging already spells it all for the product and the pipette is not only hygienic but also convenient as it allows the serum to be dispensed in drops. It appears sticky but once I spread it over my face, it glides on smoothly and gets absorbed into the skin within seconds!
As with most of The Body Shop products, I didn’t have to worry about an allergic reaction as besides its natural origins, the Nutriganics Drops of Youth is also silicon and paraben-free, with 20 per cent organic certified ingredients, making it suitable for all skin types.



I use the product twice daily. Once before my makeup and it creates a much better base to apply makeup on as my skin feels more hydrated and smoother. And at night, I apply after cleansing the face, allowing me to wake up to glowing, fresh firm skin. The non-oily, gel-like texture is perfect for our climate.
I recently had an allergic reaction at a facial and seriously, with the religious usage of the Nutriganics Drops of Youth, my skin healed faster and I'm back to the pretty me! :)
Do note: This is a product to prevent aging and fine lines. So I highly recommend this for ladies in the early 20s to begin using this for the long lasting youthful look to delay aging...



Rating: 4.5/5

The Body Shop Nutriganics Drops of Youth retails for $58.90 for 30ml at all The Body Shop Outlets.
