My skin's best friend! TOP 10 favourite products!

Today's topic is about my Beauty favourites as there were a number of people asking me why are my skin complexion is good. First and foremost, I am a normal-combination skin type. Ever since the age of 14-15, my first skincare item which I applied on was Moisturiser. At a very young age, I was taught by my mum to love/protect my skin. Probably this is also why I've never had pimples/breakouts before but I do have bad days such as snaky skin appearing once in a blue moon and I have the worst eye bags!! As I grew up, my skincare stash grew bigger and bigger from toner to essence to moisturiser and so forth. Today, I'd like to share with you some of my beauty favourites which I have been using forever since. Here are some of my favourites for skincare:

1. Angels on bare skin

I bought my first tub in NZ. It cost me less than $20. My verdict? I love this so much. There's nth I hate about this product, probably the downside is it doesn't cleanse my skin clean thoroughly and it has a "film" feeling when I'm done washing. The PROS is that it not only hydrates my skin, it gives a healthy glow on my skin. Additionally, it is organic and there's no trace of preservatives which is a bonus for FRESH CLEANSERS! On the other note, this tub lets you uses for a span of only 3 months. 

This has got to be my favourite loots on this bucket list! 

 2. L'OREAL Cleansing milk & make-up remover

Can't live without. Need I say more? I love L'oreal cleansing milk so much! It is probably one of my favourite cause there isn't any trace of alcohol!!! It is gentle on my skin and sometimes I will use it to remove my eye makeups. On the other hand,  I love using L'oreal lip and eye make-up remover too! However, as it contains oil I try to minimise my usage and remove my makeup only when I have heavy makeups on. To sum up, these are my favourites as it is cheap and it is effective. I bought each bottle at less than SGD6 and it last me for about 3-4months. 

You can try purchasing them over at Swanston, they sells the cheapest toiletries in Singapore!

3. Water sleeping mask

 Guess I don't need to introduce about Laneige water sleeping pack, but I got to introduce you wine therapy mask from Holika Holika! Basically it acts as the same as Laneige sleeping mask but these one is much more preferabled!! I bought it at around SGD13 in Seoul, not too sure how much it is retailing in Sg. But I am sure I will stock up on Wine therapy mask once 3 bottles of Laneige sleeping mask has been fully used!

4. Dermal mask 

If you think these doesn't show any effects, you are wrong!! It instantly brightens up my face after application! I am using the snail, bee venom, cucumber, apricot and aloe vera. These few are my favourites. My sister uses them as well ever since she stole one from me... Haha!! I got them in Seoul for 10 pieces at SGD3. So friggin' cheap right! Too bad I bought only 60pieces back last year and I've finished all. Thankfully my sister gave me a few of them :)

5. Innisfree capsule recipe pack

Innisfree is not available in SG, however I got mine while I am ordering my BB cream from a friend. 

Basically, these works like a mask but it is not for leave in mask like sleeping pack. My verdict for these has to be that IT WORKS right after you apply. I've tried Green Tea, Olive and Canola Honey. Surprisingly, every single capsule gives me a tingling sensation. Canola honey even gave me and OB a "hot sensation". It felt as though there's fire caught on our face! Haha. But in actual fact, these goodies are actually penetrating to our pores. One capsule is sufficient for 3-4 times of usage on entire face. These mask are also good for sensitive skin. OB is extremely sensitive to products, even people touches him his skin turns red and turns frightful. So he is my best guinea pig to try things on! :P

I can't wait to purchase these again!

6. Laneige water bank essence 

Okay, I admit I am a fan of Korean skincare products. Haha! Having to be in air-conditioned places most of the time, I will apply a tiny pump of essence on my face to keep my skin hydrated if I am staying in school/work for more than 8 hours. One of the most preferred essence as it is not oily but it helps my skins to stay hydrated. So these products deserve a thumbs up! 

7. Natur-e Body Lotion

Apart from my crazy stash of Victoria Secret body lotion, these are the BOMBS. If I am right, it is originated in Indonesia. So I usually ask my aunts to get me when they're coming to SG. There are small molecules (those green spots which you see) which will "pops" and penetrates into your skin. It actually smoothens your skin however this product doesn't promises any whitening effects BUT it is definitely nourishing as it assure of! Not too sure how much this bottle is retailing and I doubt it is available in SG. Perhaps you can try your luck at Batam!

8. OPAL hair treatment

This was bought by OB when he's in HongKong. Primarily it is a hair treatment to be left for only 1 minute, and it gives a shiny and soft hair afterwards. It is endorsed and renowned to be used from Hong Kong artiste. Meaning it is very popular in HK la! It is not available in Singapore, and it is affordable! 1 box contains 4 bottles costing about 15SGD I think... These definitely is the top product cause I introduced it to a friend and a common friend of ours asked me if I wanna get these product. But she didn't knew I introduced it to that friend of ours lol. 

9. Avocado Brightening Sherbet by Scentio

Got them in Bangkok and boyyy.... I am in love with this product! I love the smell, especially the one in strawberry! However it had been discontinued so I've been using the one in avocado! The scrub is really mild and it definitely brightens my skin! I've friends who said why are my shoulders glowing!! I am pretty sure it's this product that is working for me!!! ;)

10. Jorubi Aloe Vera Gel

Lastly, my bf, my whole family and friends will know I AM CRAZY OVER THESE. I apply these on my face when I'm having flaky skin days, mosquito bite days, cuts days, dry skin days and ulcer days... Almost everyday!!! I keep it refrigerated and applies right after my shower. I also spreads this on OB face when he has breakout or anything like such. So I bought him a bottle and kept at his house! These has got to be my favourite for countless years!!! This cost me less than SGD20 with a tiny complimentary tube of aloe vera. Got'em from Swanston again!

Here are some of the few things which I've been using on my skin ever since. I can't take a picture of the entire stash of favourites since my plate is too small!! These few are also the products which I foresee myself using for a long time even if I am old. If you've read every single points which I've mentioned, you probably would have realised that my key to good skin is hydration. Not only do I pay a lot of attention to my skin, I drink 1.8-2litres of water/fruit juice everyday without fail. Remember, there's no beautiful women in these world but lazy women. These also reminds me to stop being lazy, and get my butt off to run. Till the next beauty favourites folks! Stay beautiful and young! Xx
