Powder -MAC - Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation
shiZuka 6/18/2004 12:28:00 AM
This is my second M.A.C studio fix powder. I was quite contented with my first one, got it in NC3, however when i went to singapore last year, 2003, apparently they have discontinued the previous product and the sales girl offered me in C2 (one shade lighter than NC3). I prefer the previous packaging since it looks more exclusive. The powder itself doesn't really cover up my uneven skin tone nor blemishes probably becoz i got it in lighter shade, but it's quite an 'ok' powder for everyday use, doesn't give the 'heavy' feeling on my face. Not sure will buy this powder again since there are more options around but might buy it because it is a M.A.C product.

Moisturizers -Kose - Sekkisei Emulsion
shiZuka 5/6/2004 11:40:00 PM
I used the emulsion on top of sekkisei lotion day and night. I didn't like it initially as i felt the stickiness especially when i use it in the morning. My friend recommended me to reduce the amount size for day time and only apply it on my cheek areas. It works and i feel much better especially after my consultation with the Japanese BA last night. She advised me to use the emulsion (2 pumps) with cotton pad instead of using my hands directly. She also told me to apply the emulsion prior to lotion, so i have to reverse the routine for day time and perfect.. !! i don't feel the greasiness anymore this morning. I don't really know the effect of this individually for my skin as i use the complete range of sekkisei products but i feel my skin is more transparent and smoother though i have not achieved my desired level of smoothness. I think i would repurchased if i see more significant results after finishing up one bottle else i might hunt for other brands.

Fragrances -Clinique - Happy
shiZuka 4/23/2004 3:53:00 AM
A light scent perfum that reminds me of something fresh and flowerly but the smell doesn't last long no matter how many times you spray. The packaging is very simple and it basically describe the word "happy" well .. probably clinique should reconsider doing more research on how to make the scent last longer but good job for creating this smell .. love it!

Masks -Kose - Medicated Seikisho Whitening Mask
shiZuka 4/22/2004 4:37:00 AM
I like this mask a lot! It brightens my skin complexion and i feel so fresh and clean after peeling off the mask. I like the cooling effect after initial application as it is soothing my skin. Price is quite cheap for the satisfactory result however i didn't really notice it removes off my blackheads. Oh well, i am quite satified with the result and will definitely repurchased.

Mascara -Paula's Choice - Epic Lengths Mascara
shiZuka 4/22/2004 3:47:00 AM
OMG! I love this mascara. My eyes look so natural and its doesn't clump, that's the best ! It doesn't lengthen the lashes but it softly defines your lashes appearance and i feel so confident applying it whenever i go out. My eyes are glowing and i like how it looks in the picture. Don't know the price coz it was a gift from my sister but i believe paula's product is reasonably priced and will definitely ask my sister to buy again.

Foundations -MAC - Hypereal [DISCONTINUED]
shiZuka 4/22/2004 3:40:00 AM
A very light foundation from MAC. I love this product since i don't feel the heaviness and my face is glowing with its shimmering particles .. though it didn't do much on my uneven skin tone and cover up my wrinkles. I read in magazine that it contains silicon hence it will lighten the wrinkle appearance but I guess i have to invest in eye cream for that. However, i am quite satisfied with this will definitely buy this product again.

Treatments -Biotherm - D-Stress day cream

I received a sample on this d-stress day cream which could last for weeks. I love the blue colour and smell of this cream .. but i feel no significant result on my combination skin. Feels good after first few application but feels bit dehidrated inside.

Moisturizers -Guinot - Creme Nutrition Confort

Agreed with the previous review that this cream doesn't moist my skin long, feel oily outside but dry inside. I have stopped using it since i feel the discomfort and dehidration out of it. Price is quite expensive but last quite long though.

Moisturizers -SKII - Signs Treatment
shiZuka 4/22/2004 2:46:00 AM
I am disappointed with how SK-II customer service handles its customer complaint. I bought this product in Singapore after seeing its advertisement on giving woman crystal clear skin. I purchased the whole range starting from cleanser to signs treatment. First application of signs treatment is wonderful, it gives a smooth silky effect, however after two days of application, few bumps are appearing and my skin feels itchy. I stopped using it and asked my sister to use the product coz i thought that i have a sensitive skin .. but my sister faced the same problem with me. What disappointed me most is the customer services ignored my complaint. I wouldn't mind spending $$$ if i could see the results. SK-II is a definite No No for ME!!!

Treatments (Eye) -SKII - Eye Treament Film
shiZuka 4/22/2004 2:39:00 AM
This eye treatment doesn't do any good to wrinkles or eye bags, it hydrates the eye area but i felt that i have more lines since i applied this. I am 28 of age and it simply doesn't work for me. I won't buy any of SK-II products again.
