L'OCCITANE and Me :)

LOL..!! Don't get me wrong..I do not move on to L'occitane. It is just an ADD ON :) I just started a week ago on its' new re-formula DIVINE range. I was given free sample sachets of Divine series - Lotion, Serum & Cream. FYI, Divine Cream - RM455. Oo La La!! Exactly a luxury range and the brand does carry normal range products ranging from pricing >RM100 for a toner and so forth. The draw back of Divine series is need to apply using its' recommended massage/application steps. But one will adapt to it soon after as it consists of simple steps to remember.

It is an anti-aging series. Yes, surprisingly my skin adapts to it well. Usually, anti-aging series are too rich for my skin but somehow this absorb and leave non greasiness/oily on my skin surface. It contains essential oil and yet not oily at the same time during or after application. Even though, I have started just a week, but on first application, I already see result appearing. I woke up the next day with smoother skin and radiance skin. After days of using, I feel suppleness and firmness abit. I used to find my skin abit loose when smile, after using Divine and diligently follow the steps - I feel abit tightness when i smile - I consider I have a firmer cheeks now :) Well, the products claim to enhance collagen and firmness apart from prevent and smooth wrinkle. The major point is so far no breakout.

After a week, my friend sees the difference in me - my skin is brighter and radiance. Which I myself feel so too. Skin has become smoother hence, silky touch. L'occitane has become my recommended brand to people. The brand claims to be paraben & silicone- free. Even its' alcohol comes in levels but it claims to be derived from plants extract. Some products are alcohol-free and those contain come in % and of plants extracts. I did my research on other bloggers on L'occitane, all have good reviews and one thing I realized without fail people will mention is - brighten their skin, radiance enhancer. It happens on me too. For pimple skin, they mentioned the pimples do not get worse but has help them over time.

I am using L'occitane as my day & night regimen - Immortelle Blue bottle toner, Divine Lotion, Sublime Essence (day)/ Divine Extract Serum (night), Divine Cream. Of course, my Skinfood wash off masks everynight and alternately using scrubs. I am a person that cleanses my face 3 times a day so my evening will be Skinfood toner and moisturizer.

Another wonder happened on me is Angelica Eye Roller Gel. Roller means to prevent and soothe puffiness and dark circle which I so far have none but I can feel less tightness around my eyes. One visible results is I used to have a white seed on my left eyelid. But now, I see none and best of all no trace of any mark as though there is non-existent of white head before.

*THIS IS ONLY A WEEK TESTIMONIAL. I WILL REVIEW AGAIN ON L'OCCITANE AFTER 2 MONTHS IF IT SUSTAINS THAT LONG.

Skinfood - After 3 months of using and still counting..

Hi, everyone!! A nice weather to blog...rainy season lately :) Another month has passed..Welcome to October! A month full of fun and activities - Pink Ribbon for Breast Cancer & Octoberfest. But for me, well, always and my favourite beauty blogging :) So, I am sure all of you would like to know how fair this skincare on me:-

Firstly, if you are a new reader on my blog, please read my previous blogs to know my skin condition as well as my habit of ALWAYS CHANGE NEW SKINCARE ON A MONTHLY BASIS..hehehehe...whether or not my personal review reliable or not, is majorly up to individual. But, my skin definitely response fast on the skincare I paste on it :)

Secondly, if you are my follower/s then you know very well for a brand to sustain more than 2 months and still ongoing, means this brand is very reliable and good.

Lastly, YES!! Skinfood sustains in my life as my beauty regime must have!! I love its' wash off masks, scrubs and skincare as well as sheetmasks. Practically, everything in the shop I use are good and satisfactory in Malaysia weather - hot & humid & dry throughout the year; plus during rainfall in air-condition harsh environment. The hand lotion/essence absorbs fast and do not leave greasiness. Argan oil hair mask/condition really works wonder on my frizzy dry hair.

I realize that to keep my skin hydrated and calmed, I need my masks on a daily basis. Which is what I am doing so for the past 3 months without fail. I very much prefer and love wash off masks. The new scrub I have tried is Black sugar honey mask. A thumb up!! The Acorn Jelly mask also a wonder. I have no negative comment on this brand as it suits my skin as well as hair and body very well. Just nice on our weather - the products reacted refresh & clean.

Ever since I start this brand, and also after 2 months of using, people around me started to feel the difference on me and commented I look good and have much healthier skin comparatively to previous. After a few days into using, I personally can feel the difference. So, I know that the masks help to soothe and calm my skin - less redness, the scrub and skincare keep me away from breakout - at the same time, pro-long use, enhance my skin condition to much healthier level and resilient too!
