Review: Skin and Lab Vitamin A Plus Lifting and assorted cream

anti aging 11/15/2012

Are you having ageing issues? Are you in need to restore your damaged skin? Wish to age gracefully and embrace ageing? Then you are definitely going to read more about this post and the product that I am going to share with you today.

Why do we need Vitamin A?
Vitamin A forces your skin cells to turn over at a faster rate, therefore bringing new fresh cells to the skin’s surface.

It penetrates deeply into the skin to promote biosynthesis of the skin cell DNA. The biotechnical complex purifies the epidermis and soothes the skin to prevent wrinkles and aging. It also restores rough skin damaged by UV light to keep your skin moisturised and healthy.

Benefits:

Main ingredients in Vitamin A Plus Lifting Cream

Vitamin A
Upon contact, vitamin A promote cell division and cell DNA biosynthesis promoting change in skin quality,thus delivering maximum effect.

Copper
Acts in generating collagen and elastin to maintain the structure ofskin tissue

Sweet Almond
Poly-lift extract, i.e. Super Vitamin, from sweet almond immediately brings elasticity and shine on contact.

Adenosine
Prevents wrinkles which increase the size of skin tissues by stimulating DNA and protein synthesis.

Price:

S$14.90

Need a sample before you buy it? No worries! Check them out here !
Aren't they nice to give out these cute samples for trying? I love them so much I
can't bear to tear them open! :D

Views:
Applying once in the morning and once in the evening, my Skin appears tightened and less sagging, clearer and brighter. My skin also looks fresher after application of the Vitamin A cream and fully moisturised. I will try the other sample sachets soon! I feel that there is a whitening effect too!

Look at the texture of the cream. It feels rather gentle and not as greasy as I thought it would be. Even my wrinkled hands looks less wrinkly now. I am going to mix it on my hand cream too!

Using this cream, I feel like a little scientist mixing my vitamin A cream onto my facial and neck creams. Its kinda fun too!

Anti-ageing is not only for the "old", we should start anti-ageing even at the age of 20. Nothing is too early. Start your own anti ageing routine now!

Thanks for reading! Do check out their website for more samples and contest! :)

Sponsored Review: Unclog your pores with T-Zone Deep Pore Ex foliating Daily Wash

Deep Pore Exfoliating Daily Wash 11/07/2012

Want a facial wash with Mild and tender Manuka honey and tea tree?
Haven't you heard of all the benefits that honey does on healing of your acnes
What about Tea Tree oil? I absolutely love them both!

Exfoliation is so important to our skin to renew our skin cells and remove dead cells.
The microbeads found in this T-Zone Deep Pore Exfoliating Daily wash will help to cleanse, and gently unclog pores, stimulate skin renewal, and leave skin visibly fresh and radiant.

Read more about the benefits of the ingredients here!

Manuka Honey. Is produced by bees who feed on the Manuka plant which grows
throughout New Zealand. Not only does Manuka Honey have more than regular honey, it is an skin and natural humectant too. Anyone who suﬀers from spots knows how punishing to skin some spot ingredients can be, but T-Zone Nature knows you can be
tough on spots without being cruel to skin. T-Zone leaves nothing to chance.
Manuka Honey is clinically proven to have a potent antiseptic on on spot forming bacteria.

Tea Tree Oil.T-Zone Effective Nature pioneered the use of this powerful microbial oil in the le for ‘porefect’ skin. Clinical studies prove how eﬀective Tea Tree Oil is in reducing spots and blackheads and with few side eﬀects like burning or ﬂaking skin that is associated with harsh spot treatments.

Or simply check at the back of the tube of the facial wash:

Packaging:
It comes in a handy fat squeeze tube size of 150ml, priced at $8.90.
You can find this in any Watson stores!
Such a reasonable price for an incredible product like this.

Actual Application:
The facial wash is gel-based with microbeads which helps in the exfoliation.
It is extremely gentle to the face and the microbeads can be easily washed off.
Its so gentle that you won't feel any peel coming off your face.
The gel will turn foamy after you massage it with water onto your face.
There is a slight cooling sensation followed by the smell of Tea-tree oil.
It is super refreshing to use this facial wash.

I had observed over a few days of usage that my face, especially my T-Zone
area had became less acne prone and oily. My pimples have also healed faster
with the help of the Spot Zapping Stick (Will review it soon!) My face is also less
itchy when i perspire during the day now.

This works very well for me! I am convinced that T-zone products works absolutely well and yes! It works for me. I'll give it 5/5!

My thoughts:

Like T-Zone on Facebook to find out more about their events and promotion now!

Sponsored Product Review: Gingerly goodness. Kniepp Warming Foot Balm

foot balm 11/06/2012

It had been raining cat and dogs today. On rainy days, it is easy to get to bed. But due to some weird pain in my leg, I would usually feel so uncomfortable. Thanks to my hubby who would sometimes give me a good foot massage before I could really sleep like a baby.

Kniepp now has this Warming Foot Balm! Remember the previous healthy foot repair butter which I had reviewed? Its really good and I am still using it for my foot massage. The lovely people at Kniepp had kindly given me this Warming Foot Balm to try. It came just in time for this rainy season!

Product introduction:
Kniepp products focus on our well-being.

Check them out on Facebook >>>Here<<<.

This gingerly goodness is supposed to keep our feet warm and cozy with the following:

1) Ginger and Cardamon oil - Improve blood circulation
2) Macadamia Oil, Honey Essence and Vitamin E - To nourish and protect our skin.

This product is great for people with diabetics and suffer from bad circulation in their feet, especially the elderlies at home and those who stand for long hours.

#Tips: Travelling to colder climates? Keep your feet warm and cosy with Kniepp Warming Foot Balm. It is 75ml and friendly for your hand carry luggage. I plan to carry it with me for my upcoming December trip! It came in at the right time! yuppies! Bring along a pair of socks too so that you can keep the warming goodness longer. ;D

If I had it earlier, I would had taken it to Sydney with me as it was quite cooling there and the flight was 8 hours long, hence I was suffering from bad leg cramps! Cheers to budget carriers but boo boo to small leg room.

How to use + #Warning:

Demo on my hand

#Tips: Wear socks if you can to keep the heat/warm for a longer time. Best to massage before heading to bed.

Review
I support all things natural and nothing beats having a good foot massage with this
warming foot balm before heading to bed. The warming effect last surprisingly long (maybe also due to me having my socks on). It keeps me cosy and happy.

The smell of ginger is also pleasant and not too strong. The warming balm is not too oily but the warming sensation will last you for quite awhile. Its really great for rainy seasons like this.

Price
$29.90 for a good 75ml to help you in your blood circulation. I must say this big tube can last you quite awhile and is price-worthy! Look out for promotions!
