Item number 13!

My 13th item to be used up! :D

Finished up my Keratin Hair Pack from Credit Beauty yesterday night. I'll be trying out a new conditioner tonight, so exciting! It's from Clariols. Hope it's good!

After using a whole tube of Credit Beauty's Keratin Hair Pack, my bestie noticed the condition of my hair improved tremendously! I'm not sure if its the hair pack or the Sexy Girl's Night Treatment Oil that is working...:)

Can't wait to complete item number 14!

Item number 12! & shopping!

Item no. 12 is some Taiwanese Collagen Jelly Eye masks, I've been using these for about half a year now, and I must say, these are the best eye masks around! I got them from my friend's friend for $1 each pair. Which is really value for money. It's generously soaked in serum. What I do with the left overs is to pour it into a bottle and soak cotton pads to make my own eye masks.

I have been a good saver lately! So to reward myself, I bought myself a pair of shorts *yes no more makeup/ skincare* it was on 30% +5% off! For $21.90 it was a great deal as it was of satin material and looked classy :)

I'm almost to my 13th item! *happy* Looks like I'm doing a good job at clearing my stash! Making sure I don't waste anything. I was on the verge of buying Jason's Aloe Vera Hair Shampoo this morning, but I resisted as I had other not-that-awesome shampoos to finish :( I hope that after adding olive oil, they would be more moisturising.

Recently I've been budgeting on the stuff I buy, making sure they don't go beyond the $20+ range. So here are a few of my favourite items which costs $20 and less!

1. Extra Virgin Olive Oil $3.90
2. Simple Toner $9.00
3. The Bodyshop Strawberry Body Scrub $12.90 *Sale*
4. Nivea's Star Fruits Lip Balm $4.10
5. Korres Quince Body Butter 50ml $17
6. Majolica Marjoca's eyeshadow singles/quads $9.90/$25.90
7. Shiseido Tsubaki Hair Mask $16.90
8. L'oreal Exfotonic $10.90 *Sale*

I wanted 10 items :( couldn't think of anything else to add on! Will add to the list if I think of any.

New skincare routine

I'm so excited! The Simple Toner, simply-sorry, no pun intended, works wonders! The minute I swapped the toner I was using, my skin went back to normal. No more pesky white clogged pores =D for the price I paid, SGD$9, I would definately recommend this toner to those who have sensitive or acne prone skin... it really works! After swiping it on, my skin is brighter, smoother and fresher! Removes any residue left behind by my cream cleanser.

Now, on to my skincare routine.

Item number 10 and 11~

Finished my toner from Ucara and Simple's Cleansing wipes! whoo hoo!

I was looking forward to finishing those toners which I have yet to use up. Ucara's toner has always been my HG toner. But since I was trying to use my older products up I took out Clinelle's Toner. I tried it out for a week and it cause me to have bumps all over =( super sad! Since I just went for a facial on Sunday!!! My skin should still be clear!

Then I tried out Lavera's Toner for 2 days. OMG the scent totally made me have an asthma attack! So I stopped using that too =(

I have one last option which is Paul & Joe's toner. But I didn't want to waste that by using it with cotton pads...Soooo! I picked up Simple's Toner this afternoon during lunch break. I hope it's a good product since it's stated that it's UK best! But for the price I paid, I won't be having much hopes on it =(

Can't wait for next month's pay to come in so I can get my HG toner again!

Item number 7, 8 and 9!!

Item 7: Fancl Rest Eye Gel

Item 8: Silk Whitia Peach Hydrating Mask

Item 9: Clearis Olive Shampoo

One more item to go!!

Parents just came back from Taiwan! I'm so happy with the loot they brought back for me. 6 tops, 2 lippies and a Nine West bag! =D *happy happy*

Item number 6!

Clinelle Moisture Booster

One of the products which didn't work on my face :( it gave me bumps whenever I use it. So instead of letting it go to waste, I used it on my neck, arms, legs...wherever that needed a little boost of moisture. After which I layered on with a cream moisturizer. Really helps with those pesky crack lines on my shins!

Next product I'm working on finishing is Fancl's Rest Eye Gel, which does NOTHING for me. I got it cheap in Japan, thinking it would be good... One of the products I regret buying. :\

I recently got another hydrating serum. It's by Heme, which is a Taiwanese brand. 24Hr Hydrating Instant Recovery Serum. The name sounds so promising. It comes in a 30ml tube, and the clear serum smells of roses. It absorbs quickly into the skin, doesn't leave any sticky residue behind. But I just don't seem to like this product much. It isn't moisturising enough...

What I do like is Dr. Ci: Labo's Aqua Collagen Gel for Sensitive Skins. I LOVE THIS STUFF. I'm suprised it didn't break me out. My skin reacts badly to anything which is too moisturising... This is a 5 in 1 product. All I need to do it to wipe my face with toner, put the gel on, pat it in, sunscreen and I'm good to go! Cuts down my morning facial routine by half!

Other serums which I have are the Paul & Joe Whitening Emulsion, @Nature Tea Tree Pure Pore Hydrating Serum Ex, Luxury White Serum and b.liv by cellniq Off with those heads Pro sebum Gel. I've got lots to finish!
