White Heads, usu beauticians recommend masks & scrub twice a wk, it wun get rid of them, but it'll lessen their occurrence.
Tightening up the pores, u need a gd toner, plus u can try Clinique's Pore Refining pdts.

Lingos, Studio Fix Not bad, rite?
Haven't tried Prada stuff before, but I can't take Lancome, it's abit too rich for my skin.
RPOriginally posted by Lingos:Hey Rp, i've received the Mac fix that you recommended. Not bad!!
Recently been switching and switching.. Prada toner, serum and hydrating lotion for me currently.. Soon to switch to Lancome whitening range. And also day time it's Body Shop Vit E moisturiser.
I wished Prada Beauty is available here!! -
I oso swear by SKII miracle water. As u age, ur skin cell renewal is less often, so the miracle water will boost up the renewal process. After using for 1 week, skin looks more radient and pores appears to have minimise.
But the rest of the SKII prdts, results so-so.
1. SKII cleaner - smells good, like the good old hazeline, removes make up quite well. But the price doesnt justify.
2. SKII solution - so-so. Very diluted and odorless. Feels cheated cos it feels exactly like water.
3. SKII Mask - tried both treatment and whitening mask. The effect is fantastic after treatment. Face immed. glows and look flawless. But effect is gone the next day. Good to put on b4 ur party. Make-up glides easily. I stock up a few pcs to standby for occasions.
4. SKII whitening source - A totally overstated product! Claim to work like laser to remove / lighten pigmentation. No effect for me at all! Sunblock is even better than this to prevent darkening of the pigmentation. Very fed up cos i paid 120 plus for a miserable 30ml !
5. SKII signs treatment - Not bad result, but extremely expensive.
Want to try the skin refining treatment cream and SKII lotion (moisturiser). Have anyone tried? Pls feedback. -
wah raos...
i think i gotta eat grass if i buy all those...
think i should start looking for rich old man to marry...
-
Whats the price of the SK II miracle water...
-
Hhehee..Sadly.. cos i get to work at 7.40am (i'm trying to look like i work hard!.. also I don't want to park like ten kms away from work) Anyway i haven't the time to put on my makeup (GRRR)Originally posted by RainbowPrincess:Lingos, Studio Fix Not bad, rite?

RP
Usually it's
#1) Cleanser - Origins Cheeks and Balances ... I usually like to change but my KS Mother (bless her soul) bought stacks for me. HAHAH... Either that or Body Shop Jojoba cleanser damn moisturising!
#2) Sometimes i spritz a bit of ... H2O face mist.
#3) Body Shop Vit E day moisturiser
#4) Run out of bathroom, put on career outfit and run.
NIght
#1) Cleanser again... plus i add a bit of H2O exfoliator (that nice blue one)
#2) Toner Prada Beauty
#3) Prada serum
#4) Prada hydrating lotion..
Do you think i'm mixing too many different products? Or do you guys believe in sticking strictly to one brand or one product line? -
SKII is good, but itz like once u start usin it, u haf 2 maintain usin it aft tat... Coz ur skin wil b reliant on dis substance liao... Itz kinda like 130+ per bottle n it lasts u 4 ard a mth or less... Imagine everytime u finish u haf 2 part wif 130 bucks 4 tat miracle water...
I used it once n stop it liao... Too high maintenance 4 my skin... Biotherm is more reasonably priced n good too~ -
Sometimes i don't mind paying loads of money. It's the problem that it doesn't work and gives you more issues that Sh|T me.
I used to have fantatic skin using an oil control line of moisturiser from Lancome. AND THEY DISCONTINUE IT! Even though it was $70 and i was 13 when everyone my age was not even using loreal.. for clear skin.. i had to have it! -
Eyeshadow..
I like.. Mac (lots of colours) I used to have Red Earth.. now i'm not keen on them anymore. I always use.. GREENS, BLUES.. never neutral. And flashy glitter gold.
Lip gloss: I love.. Bloom.. love Dior, Love Chanel Glossimer.. not too keen on juicy tubes (dont kill me) And must be bright pink pink.. -
Erm, the makeup remover, Shu Umera's is gd...
I currently use Estee Lauder's Lip & Eye Makeup remover (or izzit Liz Arden?) & it's v. gd... Not tt pricey either.

It's S$94 for a small bottle, S$118 (I think) for the big bottle. I bot the small bottle to try 1st & it works so well tt I'll buy the big bottle when I've run out.
RPOriginally posted by s|nNeD:Whats the price of the SK II miracle water... -
Nope, u can mix & match : ) Cosh Not all pdts of the same range will work for u.
As long as they work & dun make u break out, there's No harm using pdts from different brands : )

I use Dior, Estee Lauder, Liz Arden, & there was once some Japanese thg wif Japanese words on it tt I din understand. But the colour was sooooooooooooooooooo lovely!

Wow! did u drink ur 'shen qi shui'??Originally posted by shan_cai:SKII is good, but itz like once u start usin it, u haf 2 maintain usin it aft tat...

Hmm...i dont quite agree tat ur skin will be reliant on a pdt. Rather, i think its encourage to change a pdt after a while cos ur skin will be immuned / resistant to the ingredients. Thus, less effective. Same theory as shampoo, after a while u need to change cos the residue will build up if u use the same prdt continuously. -
There're other versions of the Miracle Water tt encourage regeneration of skin nowadays, like Estee Lauder & Liz Arden both haf some kinda serum : )
I haven't tried those as I wanted to try Miracle Water 1st. But the Estee Lauder & Liz Arden ones work out to be more expensive tooOriginally posted by oh_papillon:Wow! did u drink ur 'shen qi shui'?? I bought a big bottle and can last me 4 - 6 mths. Maybe i got a small face, tat's explain why.

Yeah.. it's not like it's La Mer or something.. putting gold flakes and diamond dust and silk on your skin. That's kinda indulgent. But who cares if you can afford it?Originally posted by RainbowPrincess:Yeah

I think Lancome is the same parent company as Loreal. So some of their products are similar. HAH... i'm gonna raid the supermarket now. I think Prada is too strong for my face..
Also Body shop isn't working.. -
