Hands up, anyone who sleep with the air-con on!(I am one, hee hee(: )
Do your lips feel dry when you wake up?
Do you have craked lips?
Do your lips produce a white substance (dead skin)when you wash them with water in the morning?
If yes,
Then it's time you use a LIP MOISTURIZER!
It does not only moisturizes your lips, it protects it too!
Your lips, when in touch with the cold air, turns dry and cold.
In the long run, it's bad for your pout. :(
Love your lippie!

How to determine your skin type?
Did you realise that when you purchase facial products like facial foam and cleanser, there is a 'for normal/combination skin' sign there?
Do you know what type of skin you process?
There are primarily types of skin:
1.Normal
2.Oily
3.Combination
4.Dry
5.Sensitive
Below is a simple introduction to the types of skin.:)
1.Normal skin
-Normal skin is the 'most ideal' type of skin.
-It does not feel oily (secretes the ideal amount of oil), not dry and not sensitive either.
2.Oily skin
-Many teenagers complain of oily skin.
-Well, most teenagers have oily skin (it does not mean that only teenagers have oily skin, but a large amount of adults have too(: )
People with oily skin does not feel well during the morning and after dinner/in the evening.
-Your face feels sticky and when you wipe it, your fingers are oily.
-Oily skin peeps are more prone to pimples
Tip:
Use oil control cleansers
Try:
`Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Daily Scrub $6.49 from Neutrogena official website http://www.neutrogena.com/category/cleansers/daily+cleansers.do?sortby=ourPicks&page=2
3.Combination skin
-Having combination skin means that your 'T' zone is oily but your cheeks are dry.(T zone is the zone on your forehead to your nose, it looks like a 'T' shape, and hence the name.)
Try:
`Nivea Refreshing Cleansing Gel, Normal to Combination Skin
4.Dry Skin
-Skin which crack(s),especially under the sun
-feels not smooth at all
-Deeply dehydrated
Tip:
-Use hydrating masks twice a week
-Put on hydrating night cream before sleeping,especially if you sleep with the air-con on
Try:
` Gentle Toner, Dry to Sensitive Skin from Nivea
`Fresh fruit lemon mask sheet from TheFaceShop
5.Sensitive skin
-Skin gets itchy
-Turns red when irritated
Ps.Ps. if you have sensitive skin, don't , especially don't touch your face! Your finger tips have bacteria, which can be transfered to your face which will in turn irritate your delicate skin!
Tip:
use only 'for Sensitive skin' products
Try:

Review: THEFACESHOP Fresh Fruit Lemon Mask Sheet
I got a surprise when i realise that TheFaceShop use lemons to hydrate the skin.
I mean, whoa,citric acid?
First of all, I love the smell! (fragrance added o.0?)
The mask, though, is a bit too big for my face and the essence is all over my hands when i took the mask out.
My skin feels soft and supple after using the mask, and it feels very cooling. Very bouncy too!
Okay, I admit that I'm very bossy when it comes to skincare, but...
I love this mask!!
Skin feels transformed with just one use!
*Note:
After peeling, squeeze the mask to get the left over essence and pat it gently over your face.
Will I recommend it?
Yes!
Raitings: 8.4/10

Review:TheFaceShop Fresh Fruit Aloe Mask Sheet
Sheet is made of natural pulp being extra gentle on your skin. Widely-recognized fruit extracts give your skin fruit-like freshness and healthiness.
Description
Aloe soothes and heals damaged skin. Cleans and revitalizes skin, leaving it soft and smooth (most masks say so)
I smell alcohol immediately after opening the pakage. It was so strong!
Pros:
-Skin really feels 'revitalized' as stated
-The mask adheres to my skin well
-Very fresh feeling, not oily or sticky
-The smell lingers long after usage
Cons:
-Strong alcohol smell
-I don't think it will suit sensitive skin users:(
Will I buy it again?
Maybe. Perhaps during the GSS which is coming:)
Will I recommend it?
No.
Bargain piece?
Not really.
Rating: 7.3/10
-Love,
Juri.

Review: Eversoft Avocado Nourish Facial Cleanser
Whoa, first time using products from Eversoft.
Well, when i first opened the product,
my reaction was,
Whoa, I love the smell!
I mean, I can totally smell the avocado!
Such a pleasant surprise, isn't it? :)
When added with water,
the facial cleanser foamed almost immediately, i mean, the texture is so rich and foamy!
The smell still lingers long after using the product :) Thumbs up for this, yeah?
My skin feels refreshed instead of nourished, though.
However, my skin gets quite dry and flaky after like, 10minutes?(Maybe it's because the water's kinda hot)
P.S. My skin is neither sensitive nor dry.
And my pores kind of 'opened up' and i can see my white heads super enlarged >.<
Will I recommend it?
No:(
Is it a value buy?
Kind of.
Will I buy it again?
No.
