Mascara -Max Factor - Masterpiece Max
angela_cheung11 5/10/2008 4:01:00 AM
A disappointing product from Max Factor, I was expecting a lot from this mascara. It made my lashes clumpy and it flaked alot. I could already see the clumps on the brush. In my opinion, this is also quite expensive for a drugstore brand mascara. I will not be repurchasing.

Moisturizers -Olay - Complete Defense Daily UV Moisturizer SPF 30 (Non-Sensitive Formula)
angela_cheung11 4/24/2008 9:56:00 PM
I like this. It is really quite light for a 30+ moisturiser, possibly the lightest there is but i haven't tried any others. It's light for a 30+ sunscreen but rather greasy for a moisturiser. I'm not sure whether it moisturises well because when i run my finger across my face my finger is shiny. I like the scent and i love the pump bottle which is very hygienic. I haven't tried this under makeup yet but i do hope it works well because the finish isnt exactly matte. I will repurchase.

Moisturizers -L'Oreal - Happyderm [DISCONTINUED]
angela_cheung11 4/22/2008 3:28:00 AM
Impressive. i got this in the normal to combination skin formula and i am very happy with it. For a low price at about AUD$15 this did the job of moisturising my acne prone skin without breaking me out. I love the heavenly scent, the non greasy texture and the illuminating particles. I am also a big fan of its pump bottle which you can lock, very hygienic. Overall this is a great moisturiser, but nothing too special. I take 1 lippie off for no SPF. I would repurchase

Shampoo -Clairol - Herbal Essences Body Envy Shampoo
angela_cheung11 4/1/2008 6:18:00 AM
I have thin, flat Asian hair so i decided to try this shampoo. It cleans my hair well, removes all the build up, and has an amazing smell! After my hair dried my hair felt light and floaty but unfortunately no volume which was what I was hoping for, so i take off 2 lippies for that. Wouldn't repurchase.

Moisturizers -Neutrogena - Combination Skin Moisture Oil Free
angela_cheung11 3/31/2008 2:09:00 AM
I really wanted to like this product because it seemed so perfect when i read the back of it. Oil-free, won't clog pores, alcohol free, fragrance free etc. Then when i applied it i had horrible white streaks all over my face that were extremely hard to blend in! So disappointed. But the lotion did feel nice on my skin, it was matte and seemed to have just enough moisture for my oily, acne-prone skin. Neutrogena really let me down though. I take 2 lippies off for the white streaks and no SPF. Ahh, my search for the perfect moisturiser goes on. I won't repurchase.

Sunscreen -Nivea - Moisturizing Sun Block Lotion SPF30
angela_cheung11 3/29/2008 12:26:00 AM
Disappointing. Very thick and hard to rub in, it left me looking as white as a ghost. Doesn't do much for moisturising either. Won't repurchase.

Lotions/ Creams -Nivea - Skin Firming Lotion
angela_cheung11 3/28/2008 8:31:00 AM
This is a good basic body lotion. Moisturises well though I don't think my skin has gotten firmer, i'm only 13. The smell is okay, its not great but not unpleasant either. Overall a good buy, it'll last you a while! Would not buy again.

Treatments -Clean & Clear - Advantage Acne Spot Treatment
angela_cheung11 3/27/2008 12:47:00 AM
Do not waste your money on this! The only thing it does is decreases a bit of the redness and dries out the pimple to make it a little bit smaller. Will not buy again!

Gels/Soaps -Dove - Beauty Bar
angela_cheung11 3/27/2008 12:43:00 AM
A good basic soap. I use this on my body and it doesn't dry my skin out, but doesn't really moisturise that much either. Pretty good though, nice and creamy. Would buy again!

Tinted Moisturizer -Nivea - Visage Young Be Beautiful Tinted Moisturiser
angela_cheung11 3/27/2008 12:22:00 AM
I'm not sure whether I got the bad one but this was horrible!! I was very disappointed, the lotion seemed very lightweight and easily absorbed but when i applied it, it went extremely streaky and it was impossible to blend! No SPF either. I definitely wont be buying it again, I love my Invisible Zinc.

Moisturizers -Garnier - Pure Shine Control Moisturizer
angela_cheung11 3/27/2008 12:12:00 AM
I like this. I wasn't expecting miracles with this, but i was surprised that it actually did control oil for a few hours. A bit thick but feels comfortable when applied. Just enough moisture for oily skins. I only stopped using this because I started using benzoyl peroxide gel for my acne, which has been working pretty well. I wont be buying again for now but may come back to it in the future. A big thumbs up from me!

Moisturizers -Garnier - Garnier Pure moisturiser (oil control)
angela_cheung11 3/27/2008 12:09:00 AM
Not sure whether this is the right one but i'm reviewing the PureA day treatment. It's okay. I was satisfied with it because it seemed to be working... for a while. It only cleared out minor blemishes. I give 4 lippies because it moisturises well for oily skin, feels nice when i put it on, doesnt dry my skin out and it feels comfortable. It didn't control oil though. It works a little bit, only for a while. I wont be repurchasing.

Treatments -Garnier - PureA Night Treatment
angela_cheung11 3/27/2008 12:02:00 AM
Meh. I regret buying this. I bought it because i was satisfied with the PureA day cream, and thought that using the night cream too it would work better. Didn't do anything, its pretty useless. It's a clear gel, sticky when you apply it and i didnt wake up with a clearer complexion. I preferred the day cream. Would not buy again.

Cleansers -Garnier - Synergie Pure Deep Pore Wash
angela_cheung11 3/26/2008 11:57:00 PM
I loved this. Though it didnt clear up my acne, it worked much better than other brands i have tried like Neutrogena. I loved the little exfoliating beads, it felt so invigorating but it didnt seem to dislodge blackheads much. Didn't dry out my skin. The best cleanser I've used other than Cetaphil which I am using now. I imagine that this would be suitable for oily skins. I would not buy again though.

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Clear Pore Cleanser Mask
angela_cheung11 3/26/2008 11:45:00 PM
Not sure whether this is the product I used because I couldnt find the one i was looking for, but i think in Australia this is called Skin Clearing cleanser/mask. I loved the scent and menthol in this cleanser, left my skin cool and refreshed. Didn't clear up my acne though. Good as a cleanser, good as a mask. Felt like pretty much the same thing. I loved this product and I wish i could use it but i can't because of my acne, so i won't be buying again.
