Product Review: Tony Moly Fresh Cleansing Tissue

Tuesday, August 25, 2015

     Hello dearies! I'ts been ages since my last review of cleansing facial wipes. This is one of the skin care essentials that I cannot live without. I always make sure that I have a back up in my bag or in my makeup pouch. I don't sport heavy makeup everyday or every time I go to events but I still use facial cleansing wipes because I like the feel of washing my face with only little traces of bb cream, lipstick, waterproof mascara and eyeliner.

     I made a review of Tony Moly Floria cleansing wipes here which I truly like. But when I received this variant weeks ago, I'm amazed because of the ingredients list because it contains baking soda and other beauty oils to remove makeup and leave the skin fresh and moisturized. After 10 uses, I'm ready to share my thoughts. Read more below :)

Before and After
What I like:

  • The price is affordable because a pack contains 50 sheets. Some cleansing wipes that have 10 sheets per pack can cost you more than 100 php.
  • The scent is not overpowering. It has a faint powder scent.
  • The sheet is thicker than the regular baby wipes.
  • Does the job in removing heavy makeup especially waterproof eyeliner and pigmented lipstick.
  • My skin felt clean and refreshed after use 
  • Doesn't sting my eyes.
  • One sheet is enough for my entire face.
  • Not dripping wet and almost dry unlike other facial wipes.
  • Contains baking soda and essential beauty oils like lavender, olive, jojoba, argan, and avocado.
  • My face looks moisturized after using this facial wipes.
  • No breakouts, irritation, or whatsoever.
  • Easily accessible, it's always available on Tony Moly's shelves.
  • Available in 15, 30, and 50 sheets per pack. The 15 sheet/pack is great for trips.
  • Manufacturing and expiration date printed on the package.
  • There's an English translation on the Korean text.

What I don't like:

  • Wasn't able to remove my waterproof mascara.

Will I repurchase? Yes!!! This is very nice in removing all the heavy traces of makeup and all I need is just one sheet.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. This facial wipes/tissue from Tony Moly is another fave. I have tried another variant from Tony Moly before that I also like but this one is better because of the baking soda and beauty oils. Using this cleansing wipes also doubles as applying moisturizer on your face or moisturizing and prepping your face with baking soda because washing.

     I know there will be times that you are dead tired and just want to hit the sack right after cleaning all the gunk of makeup on you face. This will help you a lot but I will not encourage you to sleep right away. Washing your face no matter how sleepy and tired you are is one of your best defenses against nasty breakouts!

Have you tried this facial wipes from Tony Moly? Thanks for sharing!

Good Times!~

Product Review: Mischka Derma Secret Green Tea Mask

Wednesday, August 13, 2014

     Even though I'm a skin care junkie, I think I still lack something in my skin care regimen. I do the wash-tone-moisturize-rejuvenate ritual everyday and the facial scrub thrice a week but I skip another important step that will make the skin relaxed and purified. I'm so lazy to apply face mask nowadays. I don't know why but I find this step messy especially if the facial mask that i'll use will require preparing the mask and the "stay in place" position so that the mask will not drip and adhere to the contours of your face.

     I think I still haven't found the perfect facial mask for my weekly pampering at home. So when Mischka Derma Secret sent me their Green Tea Mask, I said to myself that it's time to rekindle my love for facial mask. Since I've seen some of the wonderful effects of green tea extract on my skin, I'm delighted to try this mask. After using the product for a month (applying it thrice a week) I can say that it's a promising mask. So without further ado, here's my take on Mischka Derma Secret Green Tea Mask.

     Hello dearies! I want to share another good news with you. My favorite Asian Secrets Lulur Indonesian Body scrub now has a milder and gentler version suitable for the face. If you're a long time reader of this blog prolly you know that I'm addicted to Asian Secrets body scrub. You can search my haul post and see that every time I go shopping for my bath essentials, you will see a tub of this oh so good body scrub. Now that they already have the facial scrub version, I'm sure you will no longer hesitate to exfoliate the dead skin cells on your face. This facial scrub is formulated to remove dead skin cells and other impurities caused by dirt and pollution. 

     I've been using this facial scrub for two weeks now, I use it every other day. Since the formula is mild and gentle on the skin, I have no worries for a possible breakout or whatsoever. Exfoliating facial scrub is important like facial mask at least twice or thrice a week to remove dead skin cells and maximize the effect of skin care products that you apply on your skin.

Product Review: EXFOCLEAR Microexfoliating Facial Cloth

Thursday, June 05, 2014

     It's time to ditch your favorite exfoliant with something that is reusable, affordable and effective. I'm so excited to share this review with you. I'm sure you're not familiar with ExfoClear yet and let me introduce this wonderful product to you. Our friends from Ampersand sent me two boxes of skin care goodness last April and I was surprised when I received the product. It's something that we should include in our skin care regimen. Wash, tone, moisturize and exfoliate (1-3 times a week)! Exfoliation is a very important step in our skin care routine because we can get a lot of benefits from exfoliating our skin the right way with the right kind of product.

     Why exfoliate?
Skin exfoliation gets rid of dull, rough and dry-looking skin to bring out it's natural radiance. Exfoliation also speeds up skin renewal and regeneration by constantly removing the layer of dead skin cells which have built up over the skin's surface. This accelerates the natural production of collagen and elastin, reducing the visible effects of blemishes, light scars and enlarged pores.

     Enjoy gentler, safer more efficient exfoliation and microdermabrasion with ExfoClear. The soft and re-usable ExfoClear has no abrasive granules or harsh solvents that could scratch or scrape the skin.  

      I've been using this oh so great product for more than one month now. I use it twice or thrice a week depending on my skin condition. I don't use it during my period days as I find my skin very sensitive to scrubbing even with the lightest hand strokes. Yes, it's gentle on the skin and once you use it to exfoliate you'll definitely like what you'll see and feel. I'm targeting the white heads on my nose and I can really see them coming out after exfoliation using ExfoClear. To know more about ExfoClear and my experience click CONTINUE READING and find out!
