Just my skin



I like to use mineral foundation for daily use as I know it will not harm my skin. However, it does not apply on the face smoothly when my skin is not in the good condition. I found that you have to buff the powder for a very long time or use your fingers to tap the powder in order to create a smooth look.

So, I try to find another light foundation which is good for skin but also easy to use. I heard a lot of great things about the Chantecaille Just Skin. This is the first make up product I got from this brand. I have used its eye cream before and it was really good. (I am thinking to get it again as Mecca Australia has recently started to promote this brand).


Chantecaille Just Skin is a tinted moisturizer with SPF 15. It contains botanical extracts which will not irritate your skin but provide anti-oxidant. I tried it on my face and I love it. It is very light and smooth. It is not dry at all and your skin feel moisturized even thought after a whole day out. The colour I get is GLOW which is suitable for most of the chinese. This tinted moisturizer can work as a base and you can put liquid or cream foundation on top. I also get the Chantecaille Real Skin foundation

Bikini


Summer is coming and I wanna swim in this summer. I fell in love with this pattern once I saw it in the shop "Zimmermann". This flowery pattern is so bright and lovely. I seldom like red colour but I really like this one.
Zimmermann has a lot of nice swimwear and dresses. I love this brand a lot as the clothes are very chic.

Lovely purple


This is the wallet that I got last year. I kept it one year and finally decided to use it. It took me so long does not mean I do not love it but vice versa. I do not like LV much but I like this purple wallet. It is smaller than the previous wallet and I got to get some cards out in case it looks too bulky.

Daily cleanser for face


After being allergic for using a gift cleanser early this year, I am more careful in picking up cleanser for my face. I use different cleansers in the morning and at night. I try to get my face clean so that no more dirt is left on the face to block the absorption of skincare afterwards.
Day time:
Lancome Mousse Eclat: It is a light air foam cleanser with fresh papaya smell. It is suitable for combination skin and able to clean the impurities to clarify the complexion but do not leave my skin dry at all. It claims to clean the make up but I find that it is not strong enough to get rid of all the foundation. So, I use it in the morning during shower.
Dermalogica Microfoliant: It is a fantastic product suggested by the skin therapist in Pure Indulgence . I was having a lot of congestion before and she said this product is great for clearing my skin. I give it a try and I love it. It is a rice based enzyme powder which helps to improve uneven skin pigmentation. It is a very fine powder which gently exfoliate dead skin. It is also suitable for sensitive skin and can use daily. After using it for three months, I find that my acne problem has improved a lot. Also, my t-zone becomes less oily and less black heads formed. I use this after the Lancome mousse eclat.
Night time:
Shu Uemura Green Tea Skin Purifier: This cleansing oil is one of the best product from Shu Uemura. It cleans the make up efficiently and leaves the skin silky smooth after that. I have used the original one but I still prefer the Green tea purifier. I feel relaxed smelling it ...hehe . After removing my make up, I will still use the Shiseido cleanser to emulsify the cleansing oil.
Shiseido White Lucent Cleanser: I have used three of it. It is a creamy cleanser that removes all the dirt and oil on the skin. It foams easily with water and also able to brighten the skin. It is perfect for combination and normal skin type and does not leave any dryness.
Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser: It is a nice, great bargain cleanser. I use it as a make up remover if I use mineral make up on that day. I know that it is not necessary to use make up remover for mineral make up but I just wanna to make sure no chemicals left on my skin.

Skeleton on my ears


I like this earrings once I saw it. I like skeleton in a cute way. ...hehe..
It is a product from Johnny Ramli and it is the first time I come contact with this brand. This earrings is very long with a small white skull attached at the end. The skull is well made. I find that a lot of jewellery with skull looks very rough and poorly made. However, this one is in good quality. The design is not scary at all in fact but cute. I think it is chic to wear it with the hair tied up.

Finally come the new Mattress.


The old mattress has been worn out for a year and I have decided to buy a new mattress for the new bed. I had bad neck and shoulder since I was 10, so I wanted to get a good quality mattress. Tao and I have been looking around for a good mattress for a few months and still had not made up a decision.
We narrowed into two choices : memory foam and pocket spring with pillow top. I always prefer the memory foam as I think it fits to the back comfortably. I like the Tempur mattress as it felt so good with the sink in feeling but Tao disliked it so much. Thus, we had to abandoned Tempur . So, the option for memory mattress left to be Simmons Comforpedic Nassau. I decided to pick this as it was a good deal from the end of financial year sale at the shop.
The mattress was finally delivered yesterday and I was able to try it. I quite like it and I did had a good sleep last night. I dreamt of meeting a lot of my high school friends.....one of my favourite dreams.....
Hopefully I will always wake up with good dreams sleeping on this mattress
