Skincare Regime 2011


At this point of year , I have a new regime . For two months I have not had really big annoying pimples. Thank god for that. In the morning or night I would use Pond's  cold cream or Liz earle with muslin clothes . After that I will wash my face with either Lush Herbalism which I picked up at the Liverpool Street station. It is bright green and has a strong smell. I have put the cleanser in the fridge a few days ago . It is nice to use , sometimes I will take more than 2 pea size . I like this cleanser , it is filled with herbs and almond meal . Good stuff . I will use the Clean and Clear Active acne wash once a day . If not  , I will have small pimples which I zap quickly with Oxy 10. 
I then will apply  Safi  Rania Gold day cream during day time followed by their beauty cream. I have used Safi Rania Gold for a month , no break outs and  am into  the second jar. Since I have deep lines under my eyes , I am using the Roc Multi correxion eye cream.  The line under my right eye is softening but there is another line cropping out , I feel the line under my left eye is plumping or perhaps there is no improvement . At night I will use the Safi Rania Gold Night cream . Sometimes I will use castor oil . Once a week I  use Puteri Rembulan scrub . For masks I use   Mustika Ratu Avocado mask and the Miracle mask.  This is my current regime. What I would like to have is smoother skin.

Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish


I have used Liz Earle Cleanser for about 3 weeks now. I like it especially with the muslin clothes  provided. You can either buy the cleanser alone.  I bought  extra muslin clothes, so   there is another  pair . use. It has a distinct eucalyptus smell and is very thick and white. One pump is enough for the whole face.  I use it most days , I wonder how long it will last since I bought a 100 ml blue bottle . Some ingredients in the cleanser are Hops extract , rosemary essential oil , chamomile essential oil ,eucalyptus essential oil , cocoa butter and  provitamin B5.
The cleanser has no animal extract . I bought the hot cloth cleanser for  £ 13.25  and there is a 200gm tube size  too. When I used the Pond's cold cream , I always tissue off . Sometimes I use a hand towel but it is not as  nice as with these muslin clothes. I felt that my face is really cleansed after using the cloth . I usually wait for about two minutes . I wonder when this product will arrive in Malaysia. If I were to order it from their website it will cost me about RM 130.00 inclusive of the delivery charges.

Miracle Mask


 I bought this mask after reading another blog. This product is from Langkawi and has been around for several years. It has no chemical , preservative and fragrance and is 100% natural.  I bought it to fade the pigmentation on my face which bugs me most of the time. I bought the mask from it's website for RM 21.00 , if I am not mistaken.
 The mask in white in colour , and it could also be used as a "bedak sejuk" or cool powder translated literally. You are supposed to take one teaspoon of  the powder and mix it  with cold water . When I first used it , my face became red and I do not want to use it . A few weeks later , I started to use it again . My pigmentation was fading and I liked my the texture of my face. So now , I use the mask every week  . I had a tiny pimple on my brow last night and when I applied the mask , it had dried out. Some users of this mask had said that their face is smoother . I like this mask very much. This mask is 50 gram but you can buy it in 300 grm if you wish. There are more products from this company , FCU Miracle enterprise,  neem scrub and neem capsules amongst  others.
I especially liked their 99 all in one cleanser . A powder cleanser which is powerful. I was given a sample , and they have an Extra Moist oil . I have not checked out  the product though . If you wish to be a reseller , you can be one too. Here is a link to their website : http://www.fcumiracle.com/2010/02/pembersih-muka-all-in-one-yang-berkesan.html
