REVIEW: Mango white peeling gel 10ml

Great product, easy to use, super effective and not harsh on my skin. Leaves my skin smooth and nice after using this product. Pretty colour and nice scent, doesn't smell weird at all. Super easy to use, easier to use than the gommage.

REVIEW: Tony Moly mini lip tint

Not sticky and easy to blend and apply on my lips but a little too red for me, but just nice to use as a blusher =D.

REVIEW: Zamian Premium Gold Cacao Pack

Emeline's Review on:
My favourite mask!!(:
I was initially surprised that this mask smells really like chocolate when I first used it! It smells exactly like hot chocolate, absolutely yummy!! I apply the mask for 15 minutes each time & I experienced some slight tingling sensation for the first few times when I used the mask. Washing off is quite easy with warm water. My skin always look bright, and feels really soft and smooth after using the mask. The best part of the mask is not the smell, but the fact that it truly works for me! After using this mask for a month (once per week), my pores had shrunk a little, my skin tone had evened out & my acne scars had lightened!(: Lesser blackheads are coming out now, and my skin became really smooth..  Definitely going to repurchase this!! :D

REVIEW: It's Skin Lemonherb Fresh Up Mask Sheet


Directions on how to use!, ingredients! :)

Before use:


After use:
 A visibly whiter and radiant skin! I'm not complaining! :)
Manage to find time to do a mask yesterday! Thus decided to review an It's Skin mask sheet now! :)
I've been set my eye on this for a really long time and it has been sitting on my study desk for who knows how long. :P
So, I put it in the fridge in the morning/afternoon and used it before I slept. :) (after midnight)
I like mask sheets that gives off a simplistic and yet nice pictures. I think this was part of the reason why I was tempted to try it. The picture, it's simple, it's lemons and with a name lemon herb, it sets the right image for the whole package. (IMO)


Upon opening, I smelt a subtle lemon 'herb' smell, actually it reminds me a bit of the lemon hand wash I have at home! So, I smelt long enough to decide that it's two different things and the only similarity was because of the lemon ingredient. :)
The mask sheet smells really refreshing and a little citrus (though I was hoping that it will be even more lemon-ish)
Applied it for 20 minutes and took it off! Face looks visibly brighter and whiter. :)


Indeed, I'm glad I took the time to use it, though it wasn't much of a WOW factor or anything, I'm glad it worked well on my face- giving me a smoother and more radiant skin after use. :)


Time to try out other mask sheets/wash off/etc! :P

REVIEW: Baviphat Indi Girl Tea Tree Spot Solution

Emeline's Review on:
The Baviphat Indi Girl Tea Tree Spot Solution comes in a handy little container with cute decorations(: It is convenient to use as it comes with a wand.. The solution is transparent and is non-sticky after applying.
I find the spot solution mild and it does not have a strong tea tree smell (that puts people off)! I used this on small pimples, and this solution manage to shrink them a little by the next day. It works fine for small pimples, but does not really work for the larger (and more painful) types of pimple.

REVIEW: Nature Republic Aloe Vera 90% Soothing Gel

Emeline's Review on:
I'm liking this aloe vera gel a lot!(: It is not as thick as the usual kind of aloe vera gel, and smells like cucumber! After applying it, the gel is absorbed quickly and does not leave a sticky residue! Quite refreshing! I use this on dry areas of my skin and my skin is not as dry now.. Shall continue using this(:

REVIEW: Baviphat Dark Circle Eye Cream

Emeline's Review on:
I've been using this eye cream for around two months. It is white in colour (but when applied, it is transparent) and has a subtle fragrance. After applying it on, I find that it is non-greasy(: A little is needed for both eyes, so this tube will probably last me for a looooong time!
It has lightened my dark eye circles slightly, and I will continue using this to see if it lightens my dark circles further!(:

REVIEW- Baviphat Peach All-in-one Peeling Gel

Emeline's Review on:
I've been using for almost a month and it has became my favourite now!(: It exfoliates gently, which is good for my sensitive skin.. No redness experienced. On top of that, it has a wonderful peach scent, which lifts my spirits every time I use it!(: I use this once every two days and it has done a great job in removing dead skin cells. My face always feels very smooth after using it!

REVIEW- Baviphat AC Therapy Sleeping Mask

Emeline's Review on:
I had bought this mask in travel size & it comes in a cute little apple container. This mask is sort of yellowish in colour and smells really good!(: It has a faint apple smell, quite pleasant smelling.. This mask is lightly sticky when just applied, but after awhile, the stickiness is gone. I like this mask a lot because it works well for me! I use it when there are pimples/redness on my face. The mask actually allow the redness to fade and the pimples became smaller the next morning! I was really surprised at the quick result and I will probably repurchase this in the original size in the future!(:

REVIEW- Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Clay Mask & Cleansing Foam

Emeline's Review on:

Skin Type: Sensitive, Combination Skin

I had used the pore cleansing foam and mask for a month and I'm really happy with the results! My blackhead problem had improved and I seldom get outbreaks of pimples now.

The pore clay mask does not smell weird like how some clay mask do. It's easy to apply on the face and I leave it on for around 15 minutes. I apply more of the mask on areas prone to having blackheads (like my nose), while a thinner layer on the rest of my face. Although this is a clay mask, it does not feel dry on the skin and it also do not crack after it has dried. Washing it off requires a little more effort, I would suggest using luke-warm water to rinse the mask off.  My face feels very clean and smooth after that, and I'm happy with the overall result(: Will definitely continue using it!

The pore cleansing foam smells slightly floral (quite bad at describing smell, but it seems floral to me!), and has tiny reddish brown granules in it.. I experience a slight tightening in my cheeks after rinsing it off, but the tightening will disappear after applying toner. I use this daily to wash my face, and after a month, my blackhead problem has improved greatly! My skin has also became less oily and I've been experiencing lesser outbreaks now. I will repurchase this after I have finished my current one :D

REVIEW- Lioele Vitamin C Lemon Mask

Emeline's Review on:


This mask has a gel-like texture, similar to the apple-mango one. It's pretty easy to apply and i left it on for 15 minutes. Washing it off is not much of a trouble.. I find that the mask works well on me, my skin became brighter and smoother(: No redness or tightness were felt.. However, the scent of the mask is not really appealing to me. It faintly reminds me of the smell of vitamins/medicine. But, I will probably repurchase this mask because of the good after-effect :D

REVIEW: Innisfree- Herb No Sebum Powder

This pdt works wonder. It is lightly scented and does not cause any breakouts. 


My face NOW becomes oily only afer 5 hours(*USED to be horrible after 2hrs). All i need to do is to pad the powder onto my face, EVENLY, of cuz. A lil goes quite a long way. Too much would leave the face looking white. But it really helps control sebum pdtion and keeps makeup on the whole day! 


My bb cream used to come off after a few hours due to oily skin but these days it stays pretty much on till the end of the day. LOVE IT.
Thanks for Amber's recomm!!
