OMG LA, why this product's name so damn long?!! ZZZ leh!

Okok, back to point, I'm gonna review this product!

 
The Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil
*I am guilty of copy and pasting the whole chunk of the name of the product other than typing it out! LOL. his

So I'm gonna talk about this Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil ~
*OMG, I'm super LO-SO

I've gotten this bottle of Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil from thesamplestore.sg recently =/

This make-up remover is with Hyaluronic Acid and blah blah blah. I think it's not needed to type all!
You can read the info on the packaging in Watsons! Hahah.

Mainly I just need to talk about my feelings for it isn't it?!
*Ok, that sounds damn wrong. Zzz

THIS PACKING HAVE THIS THINGY TOO! LOVE IT! HEHEHE.

If you dont know and wanna know why I love this thingy so much, read this post : http://www.kiyomilim.com/2011/10/you-think-you-dont-need-it-post-1.html


So the feeling is that... IT'S AWESOME.
*WTH, seriously, why thesamplestore give me de items all good one, I havent tried something that I'm not satisfied with lor. ZOMG. because I'm someone who likes things that satisfy me!! LOLLL~ & when the thing don't satisfy me, I will defame it!!! LOLOLOLOL~ 

I think people sure cannot believe me!!!!
LIKE 2 times I say about the products that thesamplestore gave me, 0 bad points I can say about leh!

People won't trust my review anymore manxzxzxz, if I carry on receiving good items! LOL!
Seriously, you all should buy this Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil thingy ~

Okok, you wanna know why IT'S AWESOME and why YOU MUST BUY IT right?!

Pardon my no eyelash and partially removed my make-up face! But this is me after removing my eyelashes and getting ready to remove my foundation and eyeliner.


Here goes :

It's gentle to skin (suitable for people with sensitive skin like me!) and water soluble.

What's up with water solubility right?! 
It's so that your face wont be oily after using even though it's a oil based cleanser.
Also, it won't leave your face dry and tight after using.

Gentle like my milk make-up removing cleanser too.
But the thing is that, it's so gentle that it take many rubs to remove make-up.
It's gentle to the point that even when the small amount of the cleanser enters your eye, it doesn't hurt at all.

This thing removes all traces of foundation too (but you will have to know how to use it properly).


Basically, Lip and Eye make-up remover is now OUTDATED!
Now it's all the all-in-one make-up remover like this product.
So if you're still using Lip and Eye make-up remover, YOU ARE OUTDATED =P.

Lip and Eye make-up removers are to be used with cotton pads and it does not remove foundation fully at all. I remember when I first started out making up, there was only those lip and eye make-up removers!
Even when my eye make-up were fully lifted, the foundation was still there after I was my face with a cleanser. It's so obvious that my face towel was stained with my foundation's colour!
Which now, I find these lip and eye make-up remover COMPLETELY useless. Zzz.

Ok. the only reason why I'm showing you my hand is because I want to let you know that your hands and face have to be dry when you apply the make-up remover! LOLOLOL! -______- Zzz

These new type of make-up removers DOES NOT require cotton pads!
Moreover, if you use them, your face might not be as clean as if you DIDN'T use them..
Hmmm, you get what I mean?!!

*Pssst, please do not use cotton pads for this product if not you will not be able to experience how wonderful this product is ^^

They even removes EVERY trace of make-up including foundation!
You may not even need to use a cleanser after that if you're lazy.  
(it's not that good but we can still do that occasionally because these new type of make-up removers deep cleanses our skin and will not leave any traces of oil after rinsing with water). 

This is me after removing all my base using the cleanser. It's kind of obvious that all the foundation is gone as my scars are all so obvious now. Another thing is that, you can tell that my face isn't oily as I was using flash, there's no  oily reflection parts/ marks on my face.



LOL.


Overall, I would say that it's awesome and would recommend it!


If you're still using the OLD type of lip and eye make-up remover, please change it for hygiene sake. 
& if you just ran out of make-up cleansers, like, milk cleansers, you may want to try this product out.

That's all for this review.
*but I still have to say that there are many similar products out there that does the same but this one is really gentle to my skin and that's why I'm recommending it though I'm using another cleanser that is as awesome as this one.

Bye!

Amethystory Products Review.

Recently I have been given Amethystory's Mineral Bubble Face Wash, Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer and Mineral Aqua Gel to review on by thesamplestore.sg

Sorry for my lame-mo lame-mo edit but I find it really cute ne~ LOL.

Amethystory is a sub of Ginvera yet it's much more suitable for people with sensitive skin than the usual Ginvera products. Read below for more info ^^



"I do not believe in 'typing the information on the product which is written on the website or bottle and then taking a few picture of it with you or on you = review', I prefer giving my personal comments.
I believe people will find that more helpful than just knowing the information.
I share my experience but I'm not sure if others will get the same results, however, you may ask me questions, by leaving comments, on it either if you face any differences of what I described about the product and the product itself."


Oh, remember the previous time I talked about this ?


If you do not know it's uses, please do check out this post !
http://www.kiyomilim.com/2011/10/you-think-you-dont-need-it-post-1.html

I love their packaging for this product as it is super useful for bringing it out and travelling! Loves <3



I'm going to start with Amethystory's Mineral Bubble Face Wash
*Review on Amethsytory Mineral Bubble Face Wash. (SGD14.90)

Before I received this product, I've read reviews on it on other people's blogs. I've seen stuffs like, this Mineral Bubble Face Wash isn't thick and creamy as it describes on the description. I didn't expect much from this product after reading it.
Also, the impression I had for the product before using them was, 'is this product suitable for teenagers or people with sensitive skin? will it be too strong?'. The thing that lead me to this thinking was their ingredients and the uses of these products.
It says that it contains Amethyst, and to me, Amethyst 'sounds' like a strong ingredient. It also says that it retains youthful looks, which lead me to think that the product was very strong and would trigger my sensitive skin.

I have dry and sensitive skin which peels at times when it's too try, and turns red/ gets rashes when it's sensitive.



To my surprise, the Mineral Bubble Facial Wash not only is Creamy and Thick, it is also very gentle on my skin, it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or 'tight' and instead it gives my skin a refreshing feeling which isn't 'minty'.




This facial wash was so much better than I expected and I couldn't stop myself from using it. I don't usually change skin care products once I get used to them yet, I actually left out my previous cleanser by using this product day and night or even at times when I feel I need to be 'refreshed'.

It's so light that I can use it for 3-4 times a day and do not get any sensitive reaction.

Ooooops. My face spoilt the atmosphere. LOL.

Overall, I really liked it and will continue using it till I find something better.



Another product I have gotten was the Amethystory Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer. (SGD19.90)

Same goes, I thought that this product is really strong as it says that it actually fights dark spots!
Usually if I change toner or put on 'strong' moisturisers, my face would be red and itchy after 2-3 times of application. I considered myself quite daring to try 'alien' products on my skin! Haha.

I would like to mention something before I go on typing, haha.

It's that, do you know that Whitening products DO NOT whiten your skin?!
If whitening products REALLY whiten our skin, these products would be disastrous, we will end up looking like walking ZOMBIES (especially like Chinese zombies).
Imagine everyone in WHITE.

Credits thedeadfuture.com for this image. *Grabbed from Google.

Then, What does Whitening products really do right?!!
They basically improves our skin's luminousity. Meaning, enhances our NATURAL skin colour.
More like, the skin colour that we were borned with.
These products will try to reduce those UV Sun Rays' damage or effects on our skins. E.g. darkening effect.
Basically, if we are ASIANS, we will not look like Caucasions after using the withening products, we would just look yellower if we are naturally yellow under that dark skin.

Credits: karlasnaildesign19.blogspot.com , got from google. LOL.

So.. too bad! We need make-up! LOL.

Ok back to the Amethystory Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer Review.

I was rather shock that my face had no reactions after using it for 3-4times because the effect was too good to be true that actually WORKS on people with really sensitive skin, like me.

I have been using much of 'light' hyaluronic acid toners/ moisturisers for my skin care routine.
I dare not buy those with 'extra' uses like, whitening.
*as I've tried some before that makes my skin turns red.

I tested this product on my face and to my surprise it's awesome. My skin feels really bouncy and non-sticky(after 3-5mins). After trying to press down on my skin, I can feel the 'cooling' feeling under my skin as if it's keeping loads of water under it.

The hyaluronic acid isn't too much too, as some products contains too much of these acids and my face actually bleeds water..
*I don't know if it's just me or due to my sensitive/dry skin but my face really DO bleeds water when I press downwards after using some 'wrong' products. It won't hurt but it feels uncomfortable.

I will continue using this product as I can feel the awesome-ness of it and that it really promotes the absorbtion of moisturisers I'm using.
*p.s. I use water-based moisturisers and oil based ones makes my skin swell and itch.



Lastly, it's the Amethystory Mineral Aqua Gel. (SGD24.90)


This thing is mainly an 'exfoliator'. It removes dead skin and such.
Usually people with sensitive skin shouldn't use these products as it triggers sensitivity.

I remember testing out DHC's something something gel to remove dead skin and 30 seconds later, my hand became awfully red even though it is said to have 'light' and natural ingredients that will not trigger sensitivity.

I have this phobia on trying these exfoliating products after a few incidents. I braved myself to try this too!
*partially because I didn't try these products since the last time I had a sensitive reaction which was quite long ago.

I tested it on my skin first & to my surprise, this product is wonderful and amazing. It leaves my skin smooth and there was no sensitive reaction at all!
I then tested it on my face and wash it off with the Amethystory Bubble Mineral Face Wash, then applied the Aqua Whitening Enhancer then my own moisturiser.

I swear my the 'absorption ability' of my skin was amazing. It's as if my skin was hungry for minerals and I finally gave them some! They ate it real fast! Hehe.

However, I still dare not to try use it more than once a week as I'm afraid of the sensitive reactions that I may face. The reaction may not be due to the products but the Sun as exfoliating means more exposure to make-up products as well as the Sun. So I dare not use it frequently or say, I don't even dare to use it if I'm going to put on make-up after that! I prefer using it before I go to bed... (safest!) 



You can claim samples to try too! Like, test it for yourself before buying!
It's a wise choice to make before deciding to buy or not as it may suit me but may not suit you!
Do try it out!

Thank you! That's all for this LONG LONG post !

You might be puzzled on why I'm having my Os but still typing this long thing which took me 1 hour right?!
Easy! Because I've met the deadline for this post. LOLLLL.

*I've blogged something below too! On the same day, so you might just want to check out my previous post and other posts if this is your first time visiting~ Bye!

[Cosme-review: Melliesh 3in1 Lipgloss 03 Nudy Beige]

This one is slightly different because it's a combination of a review for Melliesh 03 Lipgloss in Nudy Beige.

Many many girls think that they don't need lip glosses and find it a fuss to apply them as it comes off after a meal and we will have to touch up again!

Honestly speaking, I find it quite irritating too. ^^ Hehehehe ~
Another bad thing about it is that... you know... when you kiss your boyfriend's cheek... ehh hemm...
it's kinds sticky y'know... then OUR boyfriends will start complaining about it!

However, to me, it's SUPER SUPER important to apply lipgloss.

I find it disgusting to NOT apply lipglosses! T-T
Reason being your lips will look.. really dry and flakey  without the lipgloss in pictures, especially with flash.

So yes! lipgloss/lipsticks is a need!

Ok, look here and focus on my lips in these pictures below.


The lips looked super disgusting isnt it?! "No lips to see people" LOL!

And come compare compare this picture with Lip gloss :


Different ehhhhhhh~ Hahaha, told'ya ! 

Like I said I find it frustrating and irritating that the lipglosses keeps coming off and I will have to keep touching up!

So here's one tip I'm giving you!
- You can apply the lip gloss/lip sticks only when you are about to Camwhore~~ !!!

In the pictures above, I was using Melliesh 03 Lipgloss in Nudy Beige!

You can get them here : http://shoponblog.com/product/15558/%20Lip%20Gloss%20%20Serra%20Melliesh%2003%20Nudy%20Beige.html 



What is it good about Melliesh 03 Lip gloss :

Usually we can apply lipgloss by themselves without any bases but the colour of the lipgloss will not turn out nice/ obvious and usually only perks up your lips with a little more "shiny" look!

Some lip glosses are thicker, e.g. CandyDoll Lip glosses , which are able to stand out slightly more without any base lipsticks/ lip concealer. However, you wouldn't get the best effects of it without a base too.
*As you know.. they usually come out in a series where this lipstick is to be matched with this lip gloss and so on...

Melliesh Lip glosses are the thicker ones too.
Much more pigmented, as this Lip glossis so called 3 in 1, Lip concealer + Lipstick + Lip gloss.

Without the need of applying a base colour, it'll be easy for you when you are outside and you need a quick touch up!

It's not easily washed off and it actually sticks to your fingers when they come in contact.
Plus, you will need to wash your hands countless amount of times just in order to remove it.

Colour: 5/5 stars
- I love Melliesh's thick colour.

Application: 3.5/5 stars
- It's quite hard to apply as it's quite sticky especially in contact with your fingers.
- May turn our slightly messy if not applied properly.

Texture: 4/5 stars
- It gives a good shine however, it's really too sticky and hard to remove.
- However, it is really good for touch-ups outside without the need of having a base colour.


Overall: 4/5 stars
- Ease of touch up plus it's beautiful colour, what is there more for me to say?
- Get your Melliesh 3in1 lipglosses today (:
- Oh, please remember to use a lip balm as base so as to not dry up your lips!

Remember to shop for it at www.shoponblog.com (:

That's all for now.

So, nights !

Ohhhhh & ~
There's no "parts" to this post but I've labelled it "Post: 1" because I will be having more posts like this after this!

Don't throw this thingy when you buy your facial cleanser/ make-up remover !





Why?!

This thingy works as a stopper to prevent your facial cleanser/ make-up remover from leaking when you put them in your bag !






With this, you don't even need to buy any travel pack for your facial cleanser/ make-up remover !!

Awesome isn't it ! I have friends regretting throwing these away when they saw me using it.
So I'm just blogging to tell those who don't know about it ! ^^

Ok, as I'm typing this, I'm eating an apple !!

Kiyomi loves dressing up with a watch ! ( ^ ^ ) /


& yes yes yes, you did not read the title wrongly. Kiyomi loves dressing up with a watch !



Hehe, see the full view of the style as you read below ! ^^


Chang(Fa) chang(Mi) chang(Ray) chang(Do)....

Teehee, I am going to show you all how a watch can go well with my style / dressing today in this post !

The pictures will be spread throughout this whole post so you all will get to see how I match my beloved watch with my style of the day !

So... Spot my watch, see my style.





I hope you like the style while you read my post on why I love dressing up with a watch !

Enjoy !

I have been buying Baby-G watches since I was in P3.. WA! That was like ... 8 years already! I must be a Baby-G fan!


So 1stly I'm so gonna cover on why I love dressing up then 2ndly I'm gonna talk about why with a watch.
*I'm keeping your heart itchy to know why! >.< So keep reading !

Ok, basically I don't really know what other people feel about dressing up,
but I am positive about my reasons !

When I was younger, I really hate dressing up. I find it a chore at that time as you will have to take out countless apparels to mix and match then be late for appointments if you are in a hurry.
*Fine.. So at that time I felt that dressing up is a watse of time ok?!



The good thing about why I like Baby-G it's also because they are water resistant till can wear to swim and bath! Super convenient. This one = got looks also got use = not bimbotic. LOL.


My waredrobe was filled with Polo Tees!
I guess even a guy's waredrobe would have much more variety of apparels than mine manzxzxzxz. LOL.

Something really changed me when I was in Secondary 2 (14 years old).
Someone came to me and asked me if I was in financial difficulty. Zzz. I asked the person what makes her think so, and she told me it was because I was wearing the same clothes at least once every week.
*To come to think of it, I had so much more savings when I didn't dress up! LOL! Just kidding!

I came to realised that almost everyone around me dresses up and look kind of cool.

THENTHENTHEN, the worst part happened, I went into a shop and started buying loads of T-Shirts and some 3/4 pants.
I seriously thought that I was being clever and I could dress up with all those pathetic clothes !
I wore them out & the response from my friends around me was, "WA, recently you into aunty fashion?"

Yeah, my heart BROKE/SHATTERED. Was my "dress up" THAT bad?!!!!
*O.k. fine, it was. -______-lll 



Finally you got a glance at my dressing with my watch ! How is it?! Casual but nice hor? *Shucks BHB.

Then here came my "saver", I was introduced to A MAGAZINE !
It's called Popteen ! It's a Japanese magazine that talks about Fashion and Make-up !

I was in AWE of the models in the magazine, their styles were awesome.
The best thing was, they do not blindly follow fashion they create fashion and I was very inspired by them thus, I started exploring into my world of fashion without blindly following the magazine or the model's style.

To me now, Fashion is Me, I am Fashion, I want to move with the trend in my own way.




My dress up style was originated from Japanese magazines, so obviously I will still have the "feel" of the Japanese fashion in my style and make-up.

While I explore in the world of Fashion to get inspirations, I asked myself how do I "modify" these styles into myself which makes me.
There was this question that came to me,
"Do I make my own style or ask myself what is my own style?".

Both choices would make me unique and would make me myself right? I chose the 2nd option.
I asked myself, what is my style. The thing that came to me, after thinking in contradiction to myself, was that my style is supposed to be me. I know it sounds kind of weird, but it's that my style should be what I feel comfortable in and something that shows people who I am as well as what is my character. 




After exploring and knowing how I want to look and "what is me", I started asking myself this,
"Why do I love dressing up? & For who do I dress up for?"


After a while after I stop thinking about it, my answer just came to me naturally.
It was, "I cannot stop dressing up, I dress up for myself to let everyone know me with simply one look".


Dressing up shows people my personality. Dressing up shows my mood.  


My way of dressing changes with my mood, I do have a fixed fashion line but not a fixed style. I style and dress up myself according to how I feel that day.






Ok, I should start talking about why do I like to dress up with a watch as an accessory


I wasn't someone who's good at matching watches with my style when I first started dressing up. Plus! I had a habit of wearing watches on my wrist since young and without it, I will feel really empty and weird.
I will look at my wrist thinking that it's there when it's not so ... hehe.

I remember wearing really cutesy apparels that day and I was matching it with a black watch Zzz.
It was for a photoshoot and the photographer totally.... gave me that -___- face when he saw me wearing it =/ and that was when I feel that it is important to match the design of your watch to what you wear on the particular day!

I started to be more aware of how to match watches to my style and everything so.. hehe, I am an expert now!
Ask me if you don't know what watch to match your clothes that day!
*Just kidding....




Wearing a watch is important to me !
I like keeping track of time where ever I am so that I will not be late for appointments.

Watches shows your personality depending on their designs too.

Sometimes you may not want to dress up too "fanciful-ly" and just want to look casual, a watch can bring out your style, character and your mood too !

So lets start dressing up with your watch !! Yay ! ^^


*Psssst... and I really wanna win a new Baby-G watch! 
Prays hard & lets all continue to support Baby-G and Casio! Hehe.

I AM SO DEAD.

HI ALL. 

If you have been following me on twitter, @kiyomilim, or keeping track to my facebook page,
you would have know what happened today.



I was STUPID enough to miss my Science Practical O levels paper which means that my 
Science = Ungraded.
*Congratulations to me. Zzz

I am so so so fed up on myself and I cried and cried and cried.
Screamed at my whole family as they did not try to wake me up and such.

I seriously felt damn damn damn lost, i dont know if you all can understand how I feel as I totally can't describe it. The feeling was FREAKING HORRIBLE.

I studied like FREAKING HARD and Science was one of them which I spent most my time studying!

Now my whole damn Science paper is Ungraded.

Ok, now I totally learnt my lesson and hope that my A.maths can help me replace my Science.
I shall study real hard NOW NOW NOW on A.maths and Maths to score my BEST BEST BEST.
If not I am really DIE DIE DIE laaaaa!

Luckily there's Cynthia there telling me it's ok I can focus on my A.Maths if not, you will see me flunging my full O levels just because of today manzxzxzxz.

Ok, I am SUPER grateful that I have understanding family members (that however failed to try to wake me up) to understand my situation and encourage me to study for the rest of the papers.
My dad even gave me Wild Wild Wet tickets! LOL!

Aihya, I know my haters cfm there laughing lor, saying like "serves you right" because you know... I made fun of that ... HORSE.
*If you don't know who, you better not know la. Hahahha.

BUT HEY HEY HEY, I still got other papers ok! Since that now I've flung my Science, I shall focus on my other paper and make sure I still hit my target without it.
I still got 5 more subjects to go. I MUST do well.

Wa, I type this whole freaking post like just talking to myself leh. Idk why I got this feeling but it really seems that way to me because there's like nothing informative in this "I AM SO DEAD" post. 



May be I should add some ... a little more ... interesting stuff? LOL.

Ok, idk what's interesting to talk about now
but perhaps about a movie which I have watched a few days back...Hmm.. Ok, set. LOL.

The Sorcerer and the White Snake 
in Chinese: 白蛇传

Ok, I know the poster damn nice! ^^

Basically this movie is SO-SO only la !
Kind of touching at the end of the show but it's still SO-SO only.

They used a lot of popular Chinese actor and actresses in this movie (even the calefares are popular people)
which I think they used a lot of money to produce this movie lor !
*Wasted !

Ok, another thing is, too many special effects are used !!! It's like watching cartoon more than a "human movie" lor. Serious.

Just a random review la, so if you still wanna watch, just go! Hehe.



Another thing is ... ^^

My Want-To-Sell Section is UPPPP~
Check it out yo, check it out!

More will be updated soon !!
