Cleansers -Decleor - Cleansing Milk
milchu 6/5/2009 2:34:00 PM
I LOVE Decleor cleansing milk. I decided to give it a try after reading all the MUA reviews. Thank you everyone! It leaves my skin clean and soft, not dry and no residue. Plus it smells heavenly, feels like pampering myself every time I wash my face.

Cleansers -Nuxe - Eau Demaquillante
milchu 5/9/2008 4:49:00 PM
I used to use DHC Cleansing Oil to remove the sunblock and make-up everyday. But it irritated and dried my skin, and my face became very sensitive. This is so much gentler on my skin, easier to use, less messy. And most importantly, it cleans equally well. I use it everyday follow by Shiseido foamy cleanser. Thank you MUA reviewers for recommending this product!

Skincare - Body -DHC - AHA Body Silker
milchu 1/23/2007 4:48:00 AM
I've been using this for over a year. It is a must for getting rid of the annoying little bumps on my legs. Very expensive, kept waiting for it to go on sale so I can stock up. It feels sticky and just sits on my skin, not absorbed completely. If my skin happens to be really dry, it also stings. I don't like the packaging, wish it comes with a pump or tube. It works, so I will repurchase unless there is anything better and cheaper. Update: DHC has a sale until 03/07, time to stock up!!!

Treatments -Exuviance - Vespera Bionic Serum
milchu 1/23/2007 3:52:00 AM
I have been using this for over 6 months, together with other Exuviance products, my complexion is now smoother, brighter, old acne scars have disappeared, pores seem smaller. It took my skin a while to build up tolerance. Initially I was using it weekly, now it's every other night. My face still gets sensitive if I had used it the night before. I agree, the sticky shiney feeling can be annoying. Price is good compared with most dept store brands. $45.65 at skin-etc plus a free neostrata 8% AHA cream.

Moisturizers -Exuviance - Evening restorative complex
milchu 1/23/2007 3:38:00 AM
I've been using this for over a year, simply wonderul. It's gentle on my sensitive skin, gets rid of acne scars and discoloration, my pores appear smaller, complexion seems smoother and brighter. I have to apply it quickly and gently, or else it rubs off. Perfect all year round in southern CA, but a bit dry for winter so I put an extra layer of (shiseido) moisturizer. Price is good compared with most dept brands, $24.49 at skin-etc plus a free offer of Neostrata 8% AHA cream.

Too greasy for me. But it works great as a lip balm, it also soothes dry flaky patches of skin like around the nose.

I love this eye cream, it absorbs well into the skin and keeps it moisturized. I bought them for my mom and sister and they both love it too.

Moisturizers -Darphin - Intral Balm

This is my HG moisturizer. I have been using it for a month now. It soothes my sensitive skin and moisturizes it with only a dab. Absorbs well and leaves face soft and healthy. Just got back from Las Vegas, it kept my skin hydrated in dry desert weather and a/c rooms.

Cleansers -Exuviance - Gentle Cleansing Creme
milchu 8/11/2006 1:33:00 PM
I love this cleansing creme, I'm on my 2nd bottle. It's gentle, has a nice texture and lovely smell. It's good for everyday cleaning, but I use DHC cleansing oil first to remove make-up and heavy duty sun block. Wash cloth is required but that doesn't bother me. Leaves skin clean and soft, not dry and tight.

Treatments -Skinceuticals - Hydrating B5 Gel
milchu 10/25/2005 1:29:00 PM
I've figured out how to use this product. Just using it alone dried up my face. After washing my face, I pat on some toner (Shiseido), then apply the B5 gel. That way, the hyaluronate can bind with toner and carry it into deep layer of the skin. Then I apply a moisturizer (La Roche Posay) to form a protective layer. There are dry rough patches on my cheeks due to changing seasons. I warm up couple drops of essential oil (kukui nut oil from Hawaii) and pat them on my skin before the moisturizer. Skinceuticals B5 gel really plumps up my face and makes it soft and dewy.

Cleansers -La Roche Posay - Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser
milchu 10/25/2005 1:05:00 PM
I have sensitive and combination skin. I had a rosacea flare-up due to allergic reaction to chemical sunscreen and my dermatologist told me to use this cleanser. It's gentle and non-foaming. I am used to squeakily clean and this feels weird, like I can't rinse it off completely no matter how much water I splash on my face. So I use a wet towel to wipe it off. It leaves my skin soft and clean, not parched. It'd be better if it comes in a pump bottle.

This is a great product. However, I need to put additional cream on dry spots because it is not moisturizing enough.

Masks -Unlisted Brand - Valmont - Renewing Pack
milchu 10/25/2005 12:36:00 PM
I have sensitive combination skin. Lately it has been dry and rough on the cheeks because of the changing seasons. I put this on every night for 30 min then wipe it off with wet towel. It makes my skin soft and plump with a healthy glow. Without the rough layer of skin, it's easier to absorb the serum and moisturizer. My face is soft and dewy all day! I had rosacea flare-up one time due to allergic reaction to chemical sunscreen. This mask made it worse, it actually stinged.

Lip Treatments -Nuxe - Reve de Miel Ultra-Nourishing Lip Balm with Honey and Precious Oils
milchu 10/25/2005 12:21:00 PM
This is a great lip balm. I wanted to try after reading the reviews on MUA. Just one night, it got rid of the rough skin on my lips and made them soft and plump. However, it's hard to apply and my lips are matte not glossy. Very hard to get in the US. I got mine from skin-one for $21 no tax and free shipping. Expensive for lip balm, but it works.

Treatments -Unlisted Brand - Topix Replenix Green Tea Serum CF
milchu 7/20/2005 1:30:00 PM
My skin had a major allergic flare up when it came in contact with chemical sunscreen. I got a sample of the serum and put it on at night. The next day morning the redness and bumps were significantly reduced. After finishing the sample for about 3 days, the redness and bumps were completely gone, and my face was clear and smooth. Amazed by the result, I bought a full size bottle and started using it for about 2 weeks. My face is now softer, brighter and smoother. The pores also seem less visible. I use the regular serum. I tried a sample of the CF serum with caffeine and it gave me huge zits. Luckily they went away when I switched back to the regular serum. You do need a moisturizer unless you use the cream, which I have not tried. I bought mine from skin-etc, who has discounted price ($33) and free samples. I have combination skin that used to be acne prone but is getting drier and more sensitive with occasional flare ups. I suspect rosacea and I am seeing a dermatologist tomorrow.
