Recent Haul - O'slee Skincare Range

What have I been up to for the past weeks? hehehe..well I have been experimenting new products - O'slee. A Hong Kong brand. Is now targeting Malaysian market as it is making strong discounts and gift with purchase via online purchase www.oslee.com.my. The products can be otherwise bought from Guardian. It claimed to be natural products. Indeed less ingredients comparatively to other drugstore/branded brands. But I came across paraben in Rosehip Q10 Lotion - so, I suppose not 100% natural but can be concluded as highly natural products. Even though is a drugstore products with averagely RM50 bucks/item, still not very cheap. As each item comes in by 100ml or lesser. Surprisingly, most of the O'slee products are in glass bottle - to me, anything in glass container means good ingredients. Even branded skincare mostly pack in plastic or higher grade plastic packaging. I have this mentality of good ingredients usually pack in glass container is due to I was told years ago, some ingredients sustainable in glass than in plastic. Maybe the products are more natural/pure, that is why need to be packed in glass packaging. Do not let the outer packaging deceived you, as usually are huge and inside, the bottle are half of the packaging size. LOL!!

Rosehip Hydra-White Cleansing Powder

For dehydrate skin, it is not encourage to use this. If want to, preferable once a day. I was recommended its' rosehip moisturizing cleanser but I bought powder instead. After 2 days of using powder, skin feels tight and dry so now I only use it every morning. For evening and night, will use Kanebo creamy soap (my left over :)) . After few days later, skin does not feel tight anymore. When my existing cleanser finishes, I may try rosehip cleanser.

Rosehip Beauty Solution lll

The so called toner/ the famous water of O'slee line of skincare. Can use palm to apply or cottonpad. When I firstly used, I apply by palm - resulted white popping on my face - either oil seed or detox my skin (you can refer to my Kiehl's review, was told the white bumps are detox). So presumably, either by palm is too much for my combination/oily skin or it is doing its' function. Since then, I have been applying this using cottonpad. Wipe then pad. Much better :) I suppose this way, my skin absorb what is sufficient and the rest remains on cotton. Not very sticky after feel.

Rosehip Peeling Gel

It is a mild scrub. Not in beads form but in gel form. After rubbing will appear rubbery substance. For my case, yellowish. I suppose it does its' function by removing dead cells and cuticles. Without drying my skin. Skin feels smoother after that. Recommended for 2-3 times weekly. So far, I use once weekly.

HD Flawless Rosehip BB Cream SPF26 PA++

It is indeed very light and very mild coverage. For bad skin, need concealer before using this. I do not really fancy this product as it has very strong rosehip scent comparatively to other Rosehip products. Other than this, coverage is weak so no point in using this extra product. Applying this product can make skin glows and it blends well with my skin color - it evens out skintone. Usually my face and neck are 2 different colors. I can feel lightweight and breathable skin.

Rosehip Q10 Moisturizing Lotion

I like this product. Not sticky neither oily and best of all, it does what it is stated. Skin indeed hydrated. I was recommended Aqua Medi as moisturizer but I still feel dry and dehydrate. Hence, was asked to try this Q10. It works for me. Usually I use 1.5 - 2 pumps each time. For AM & PM. It is lightweight and gel lotion type.

Rosehip Whitening Mask

I prefer to use this as mask rather than use Beauty Solution III as mask (cotton pad). I tried Beauty Solution as mask, too oily feel so I dislike it. However, this sheet mask is alot better. Usually I will use the C-shape Eye mask then spread this mask over it. Leave on for 15 mins. Most of the serum will dry off or absorb, just pad the remaining serum on face till skin absorbs. End result:- Skin is bright and radiant, plump up as in moisturized. To me it indeed whiten my skin as I have the tendency of having redness, after using, it calms my redness and I am a fair person so i naturally seem fair face. So am not sure really whitens or my natural fair skin. Recommended 2-3 times weekly.

Anti-Acne Essence

A very small glass bottle filled with potent. hahahaha...It helps on my pimples. I only dot and rub on pimples till absorb. Can see result day by day. Really shrinking and recovering. But definitely not an overnight thing :)

Aqua Medi

Suppose to be my moisturizer. But not hydrate enough for me. So now I have switched it to Q10 instead. The texture is light watery gel. Upon contact with skin, turns to water. Is quite a unique product. Cooling sensation but too bad not moisturize enough. But I will try using this before applying Q10 and see whether can retain moisture level in my skin or not. Use either one only seems not sufficient, so will use both together and use this as serum and Q10 as moisturizer.

Pore Medi

Also a lightweight gel type. Pink in color. Absorb pretty quickly and I usually use 2 pumps for AM & PM. Whether my pores have shrunk or not I am not sure. But indeed not as visible as previously. Of course all this works with my regimen mentioned above. Is going to be a long term instead of a few days jobs to verdict a product.

Slim Face Medi- Deep Clean Mask

AAaahhh...this is quite unique too. Does not require lymph massage method. It works as after twice using, a few people notice my face has slim down. Each time I use, I notice will pop a pimple on my jawline. Is a clay mask. When dries up will tighten my face. After using skin feels fresh and clean. Recommended 2-3 times weekly.

Honey Sugar Mask

Very dislike this product. Not because of it has no function, is mainly sticky sweetness. I am worried ants might come..hahaha..so after using, I will wash my basin and practically everything that come in contact with this mask. I have to be extra careful when using to avoid any residue that I may overlook when cleaning. Since it contains brown sugar and honey, naturally smell sweet. For result, well it does deliver. Skin radiant smooth. The smoothness last longer than peeling gel. Do not apply too thick as when it melts down, will be too slimy. Just sufficient enough. Can be applied on either dry or wet face. My face is pimple prone and redness so I use it on wet face. Works for me. Recommended 2-3 times weekly but since is tedious for me, I will only use once a week. It comes in a cute glass bottle along with a sponge and a spatula.

Pomegranate Milky Mask

On the contrary, I love this product. Smell relaxing. Not sticky at all. Skin is moisturized and refreshed. Not tedious to use. Recommended 2-3 times weekly. It comes in a cute glass bottle along with a sponge and a spatula. Since one of the functions is anti-aging/anti-oxidant, in long run is very good to skin.

ClearSpa Complete C-Shape Eye Mask

Love using this along with Rosehip Moisturizing Mask. Good combo and good result. Eyes do not look tired after using this. A very good relieving for tired eyes. Recommended 2-3 times weekly.


Been using above regimen for a week now, pores are less visible, skin texture is silky and radiant, brighten my complexion. Out of so many skincare brands that I have used, this is the only brand works on my skin. Apart from Kiehl's which is another preferred brand of mine. So, temporary will use O'slee. Boost my motivation in using O'slee as it delivers what it stated resulting in me wanting to keep using it to see much better result than now it is.
