Sisley & Herbal Himalaya

One is of very high end skincare brand VS economical brand. Sisley is from Paris while Himalaya originates from India. I spent too much on skincare for my beauty blogging purpose that I was kind of broke. hehehe... So I purchased Himalaya for trial. I bought Neem Wash, Moisturizing Lotion & Neem Mask. All for pimples prone skin. I suffered some hormones imbalance which resulted of sudden breakouts. I am still using Neem Wash - not that it is good but because I need to finish it off, otherwise, waste my money. I have been throwing or giving away my beauty stash that do not work out for me, hence, I do not want to throw my money into the drain. Other than feeling dry after cleanse, I do not see any help on preventing pimples from happening because on off still have small pimples popping. So, I presumed not exactly work out as stated. It is green gel consistency.

Moisturizing Lotion - One of the worst Lotion I ever put on face. I actually ventured into this brand is because of an article in the newspapers promoting its' Cream. Forgot its' name but if not mistaken is all purpose cream for face and body. In reviews and also the shop assistant did mention a similarity of this cream is very good on cold weather. Since this brand is from India, I thought will work quite good on me plus cheapo as Malaysia shares pretty much same weather as India. Alas, the lotion not only not moisturizing enough, it also makes my sebum super-ly active. Less than an hour, my face was covered with a layer of greasy oil. Nevertheless, it absorbs pretty face during application leaving no stickiness behind. I only used this once and the whole bottle now is in my dresser waiting to be executed :)

Neem Mask - As stated, Neem is pimples prevention so I bought it thinking to replace my H2O+ mud mask which is on its' way finishing. I had used this mask a few times but not regular hence, still have a full tube. Is in yellowish paste. Consider an alternative because it works as stated although I am not very fond of it. As the other 2 items were quite disappointing which made me no interest in this brand at all. Can always seek other brands on Mud Mask type. No doubt, it can counter already popped out pimples by reducing the zits size but compare to Etude House Clay Mask & H2O+ Mud Mask, it is still behind them.

Sisley Ecological Compound - Cost me RM650.00. Why I bought it? A friend of mine highly recommend this to me which she has been using for sometimes now. Is a moisturizer or as booster on its' own. Highly fragrance which I detest as I am a sinus person and I hate strong smell. I only used this 2-3 times before I use it as my body lotion. I am not going to waste this as it costs me a bomb and I bought it when I was deeply broke :) Just because I could not resist to hold till my next salary pay. Which I am highly regretted!! Texture is white lotion but of oilier consistency because essential oil is added. Half pump is already sufficient for combo or oily face, full pump for dry skin. I cannot tell of its' effectiveness due to I only used this 2-3 times. No breakouts and moisturizing during the times I used. Easily absorbs after spread and massaged it into the skin.

Not working out so no re-purchasing that I think is worth it unless one is really satisfied and also skin is truely responding well upon application. Which resulted me checking out The Faceshop & Etude House. Can read my blogs on these 2 korean brands which I had already posted end of Mar and early Apr 2014.
