Masks -Laneige - Water Sleeping Pack

I use this mask whenever I feel I need a perk-me-up or if my skin feels dull. I slap a thin layer of this mask on top of my basic skincare routine and go to sleep. The next morning I'll wake up to radiant and supple skin. This product is a real treat!

Cleansers -Laneige - Multi-Cleanser
rated 3 of 5

My first thought of this cleanser was, "wow this cleanser really CLEANS". I use this cleanser on a daily basis. The product foams up well and has microbeads in it which you can use to exfoliate your skin. It gives you a squeaky clean feeling which makes me feel that it's very drying on my skin. However the combination of products I'm using at the moment seem to be giving me pretty good results (clear skin, minimised pores). I'll probably stick to this for the meantime.

Lotions/ Creams -L'Occitane - 20% Shea Butter Hand Cream
rated 3 of 5

The L'Occitane 20% shea butter hand cream is a lovely hand cream which has a very luxurious texture. My hands feel hydrated and soft after applying but i realise that the effect is only temporary. It does nothing to the dry patches if you don't apply it regularly ie; after every handwash. My tube of 20% shea butter hand cream comes in the limited edition packaging which is a bonus :) Will i repurchase this? Maybe, because it feels luxurious when applied however the effects are somewhat temporary. Also in where I live, the cream cost a lot. I guess I would have to think twice before repurchasing.

Treatments -SKII - Facial Treatment Essence
rated 3 of 5

SKII is one of the brands which does not seem to entice me at all. My initial impression of the brand is that it is overpriced and overrated. I've heard about reviews from both sides; from those who love it (40 year old and yet flawless!) and those who would not purchase it again ('it did nothing for me!'). So one day when my local departmental store had a sale (gift with purchase and additional cash coupons), I decided to get a small little bottle, just to test it out. I had no expectations. I used it like a serum, a few drops on to my palms and dab it around my face. (Can't afford to use it with cotton heh). Then followed by my serum and moisturiser. After using it for a week, i noticed that my pores became smaller. It was a pleasant surprise because I've tried many 'pore minimising' products but none has actually reduced the pore size. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase this (too pricey), but i'll observe what it'll do for me in months to come.
