| Welcome to my girls-only page�I suppose if you're a guy this wouldn't really interest you but then again you might get something out of it anyway :) �Being a big fan of the cosmetic connection for 5 years, (though not an expert in any way on such products but being a product junkie for quite some time) I thought I'd share my favorite products/recommendations� [after years of research!:)] �think I've purchased enough products that don't really work for me (i.e. $$$ down the drain) to realize what is value for money & what is not :) But I guess bad experiences are all in the name of research as well! Favourite products do tend to change regularly though since new ones constantly appear in durgstores & department stores, each promising new miracles & begging to be tried out!:) Page Last Updated - 16/1/04 Skincare favourite brands: Neutogena, ProActiv, L'oreal Pure Zone In the never-ending quest for good skin, I have gone through hundred of brands & products � a recent find has been the ProActiv range (which has been advertised for years on infomercials)� which after trying can testify that not all infomercial products are a waste of money! & though changes were not as dramatic as in the infomercials, I (& my sister) have noticed an improvement in skin tone & texture�as well as much less frequent breakouts! Besides the normal everyday routine of cleansing, toning & moisturizing, I try to have a mini-facial once a fortnight� mask, pore-pack (biore pore pack) & exfoliation�(DIY!) Basic Cleanser: Clean&Clear Foaming Cleanser Cream Cleanser: Neutrogena Deep Clear Pore Cleanser Other Cleanser: Olay daily facialsl cleansing cloths (foams when water is added; handy for travelling!) Problem-Skin Cleanser: ProActiv Renewing Cleanser Facial Exfoliator: L'oreal Pure Zone Deep Exfoliating Gel Wash Non-Manual Facial Exfoliator: DermaGel AHA 20% SpotTreatment: Ettusais Clear Spots / Neutogena On-the-Spot patches/ Clean&Clear PersaGel Eye Cream/Gel: Biotherm Hydra-Detox Yeux Lip Care: Kiehl's Lip Balm Basic Moisturizer: Neutrogena Skin Clearing moisturiser Problem-Skin Moisturizer: Proactiv Repairing Lotion SPF Moisturizer: Kiehl's ultra Facial Moisturiser SPF 15 Toner: Boots Skin Clear Lotion / neutrogena Skin Clearing Toner / ProActiv Toner Facial Mask: Origins Activated Charcoal Mask Oil-Control Product: Ettusais Oil Block Gel Brightening Product/ Anti-Oxidant Treatment: Prescriptives Vibrant Bath & Body Shower Gel: Shokubutsu Body Foam Body Moisturizer: Neutrogena Instant Moisture Supply - Norwegian Formula Fragrance: *Angel by Thiery Mugler (a chocolate & vanilla scented Eau de Toilette!) *Clinique Happy (a citrusy & light EDT) *Fav Fragrances on Guys� Gucci Envy & DKNY for men� :) Make-up favourite brands: Prescriptives, Clinique & M.A.C In my quest for new & innovative prodcuts I am just as happy to try drugstore brands (e.g L'oreal) as I am with purchasing department store & top-end cosmetics� One of my favourite stores for international brands such as NARS, Khiels & Philosophy is Mecca Cosmetica, which I go to even if just to browse through when I am in Melbourne� recently though in NYC I happened to spot a Sephora store, which is like Toys R Us, but for makeup!!! |
