Hydrate Much?

Okay, try rank these following concerns according to your priority.

Anti-aging / Hydration / Brightening & Whitening / Clarifying

Mine's:
1. Hydration
2. Clarifying
3. Anti-aging
4. Brightening/Whitening

I cannot say how much I value hydration. I know it's all aqua but seriously, I tell you, hydration has helped me achieved the current skin that I have today.

From my experience, if your skin is well-hydrated...

• You skin will be less oily, especially during midday (I know, funny right. You need to hydrate for your skin to produce less oil)
• Your skin is blemishes-free, zit-free (except during that time of the month)
• Your skin will look more healthy & radiant
• Your skin doesn't wrinkle way earlier than it should! Yeayyy...

YES!!! The clarifying, brightening and anti-aging thing really boils down to one important factor - HYDRATION people!

And that's why I reaaaaallllllyyyyy hydrate well. Plus it doesn't help that I am an avid coffee-drinker and I hate air masak cause its tasteless! Heehee.

Here's the products I used to combat oily + blemish skin:-

Ta-daaaaaa!!!
Okay, next post...I promise to talk more about Laneige super hydrating skincare line.
Believe me, it will not be so hard on your wallet. Very affordable!

For now, I need to pack for Ipoh.
Any Ipoh people out there? I need to know the best place to eat in Ipoh :)

Road Trip! Yeayyy!

Ask Me: How do I get flawless skin? My New Beauty Regime

For the past two months, I learned that people started noticing my skin. Regardless, I was in Malaysia, Kazakhstan, Hong Kong...people keep on pointing out to my skin.

I am one that is NOT blessed with good skin. Yes, I'm grateful for my features but as for my skin...I'm prone to breakouts, I'm shiny on the T-zone during midday and it gets worst cause I like to pop my zits. I know, gross right? But I do, it's a nasty habit of mine. Thankfully, I don't scar that much. Pheww...

So, when people started to compliment my skin...I was like;

"Whhhhaaaaattt?????" Are they crazy?! Can't they see these small little bumps everywhere, what my mom called the 'Telur Katak' on my face."

An then I headed to the mirror to show just where these Telur Katak is...and stopped. There weren't any! Ooommiiigggoooodddd.....

When I met up with my bestie since I was 13 years old, over the weekend...she pointed out to the same thing. No more telur katak, no more breakouts...Then it hit me, I've cured my face. Yeayyyyyy....

My Bestie since 13 years old. Owh, how we're 'grown', kan? Hahahah

But how did I do it? Honestly, I don't know.

I recently changed my Beauty Regime, for about 1 - 2 months now, so maybe you can try this out if you want to. Click here if you want to know my previus beauty regime.

Product Review: Hada Labo Gokujyun Makeup Remover

Ok, so everybody knows Hada Labo product was a sensation last year. Who has never seen their gimmick '1 sold every 4 seconds!'. Yes, that is how sensationalised Hada Labo products were.

Prior to Hada Labo, the name super-hyaluronic acid was totally alien to me. Infact, it sounds scary. But, thanks to the Japanese innovation, super hyaluronic acid is the latest must-have in every girls drawer!

Let's pronounce it slowl...h-ya-lu-ro-nic or bahasa baku 'hai-ya-lu-ro-nik' acid.
God know why they can't find a shorter-word-easier-to-say name, gosh!

If you notice, I am an avid-user of hada labo products and has stayed loyal to it for quite some time. Read here and here.

My latest collection of the Hada Labo series is the Gokujyun Makeup Remover which I blogged about the purchase here.



THE VERDICT

I must say, this makeup remover strikes me as a cleansing oil at first but oh boy, I was fooled.
Surprisingly the texture is runny and watery, yeap, just like the other Hada Labo products...water. It contains no alcohol, fragrance nor any traces of oil. Like I said, it's just water, a SUPER water.

Ask Me: My Current Beauty Regime

I received a couple of emails requesting me to share my daily beauty regime...

Really, I am not one that stick to one regime FOREVER because I tend to change my beauty products every now and then. Why? Because I find that at some point of time, certain products stopped working on my skin. It's like as if my skin is immune to the product and I just don't see the same result as I did the first time I used it. So, I jump to a different product hence the endless list of skincare I've used all this while.

What's funny is that, sometimes after a couple of brand-swapping, I find that I'll end up with the same products I've used in the beginning but ditched along the way, again! Haha, it's like as if I've completed a full cycle and came back to the same start.

So, the following is my CURRENT beauty routine and mark my words, I may swap some products in the near future....:P
