SkinSoul Skin Shield travelling set REVIEW


Hi ladies!
I hope you enjoy my previous aesthetic blogpost! 
I've been received a lot of pm from readers/friends about my personal opinion.
I've tried my best to explained hope you all can make appointment to Sliq Clinic as fast as possible because the filler promotions is only until 31 august 2015, you saved few hundreds! 

Alright, today I'm going to review Skin Shield by SkinSoul a brand from Korea~

Last few weeks I've invited to SkinSoul outlet at LOT LG-077 in Mid Valley MegaMall. 





Great news! 
*for every readers who purchase over RM100 & above just mention my code 
'SSValerie' 
and you are entitle to get this mini SkinShield set worth RM100 + '' 

Skin Shield is an all-natural skincare range formulated in Switzerland,whose heritage is world renewed for research and innovation in beauty and personal care. Their products are in adherence to the highest quality standards of international good manufacturing practice. 
SkinShield skincare range is made from pure organic ashitaba and a fusion of other precious botanical extracs with powerful benefits that work in synergy for ultimate skin renewal in the kindest manner.


what is Ashitaba? 

Organic Ashitaba - with a unique array of phytonutrients , including 11 vitamins , 13minerals, and potent antioxidants featuring a rare class of flavonoids called chalcones, their organic Ashitaba from Japan has a powerful healing and regenerative abilities to reserve the signs of ageing , smooth wrinkles , fade age spots, regenerate skin elasticity and suppleness, heal skin irritation, and brightens skin radiance. 

Every single products of SkinSoul is guaranteed to be 100% paraben free and lead free . 



Hydra -Purifying Cleanser 
actual size - RM210.94 
Packed with skin vitamins and minerals of Ashitaba encapsulated in pure swiss Glacier Water that gently washes out impurities, excess sebum and pollution while nourishing the skin's softness and suppleness. 
My Thoughts
after this cleanser I feel that my face is very soft and ready to absorb toners & serum and yet it hydrates my skin on the time. 

Hydrating, Energizing & Pore refining lotion mist spray 
Actual size - RM210.94
This lightweight mist spray can be used both as part of your daily skincare routine and as a refreshing spray that can be applied anytime throughout the day, even on top of make up, to hydrate and energise the skin. 
My thoughts
For me facial mist is a must! Especially combination skin, mostly dehydrate . I'll put one in office, one in car and one in handbag. Facial Mist mostly came in a big bottle , you can get a small empty spray bottle from Daiso and fill it with facial mist & we're good to go. This mist is very lightweight & feels just like water , not sticky at all. 


12-in-1 Suncare Day Cream (SPF50)
Actual Size - RM262.90 
This 12-in-1 light textured and easily absorbed day cream goes the extra mile by acting as both a powerful skin care with sun protection and as makeup foundation that blends to any skin tone, thanks to the unique benefits of Ashitaba-enriched properties that: 
1-Hydrates and protect skin
2-Unifies complexion
3-Whitenens and brightens skin
4-Evens out skin tone
5-Conceals and corrects blemishes
6-Fights the signs of ageing
7-Protects skin from UV rays
8-Promotes natural skin health
9-Soothes skin irritations from environmental stress
10-Fights of damaging free radicals 
11-Stimulates skin rejuvenation 
12-Nourishes skin for a youthful radiance 

My thoughts 
it is kinda thick for me, I'm not sure about is this suitable for every skin tone or just fair skin, 
because when I applied on my face is kinda white. I don't need to apply any foundations, 
it came with coverage as well. 
If you're looking for multi sunscreen+day cream this is what you need to get. 



Night Cream
Actual Size- RM411.28
The Ashitaba-enriched night cream is designed to work in synergy your skin's natural regeneration cycle by depositing encapsulated retinol in precise concentrations that is time-released for constant skin reconditioning throughout the night. 

My thoughts
Night cream is slightly thick & sticky to me, but if you're sleeping in air con room this should be very suitable for you :) 


Lift &bright serum
Actual Size- RM305.28
To target ageing at the core, this serum has been formulated with smaller molecules of Ashitaba's anti ageing essence that can penetrate into the deepest layers of skin to restore skin elasticity and firmness. 
My thoughts
the serum is very light & more to anti ageing , small fine lines & wrinkles . 
It definitely require some times to see the effects of it , for best result while applying it and do the lifting motion massage on your face . 


Hope you like my review! 

Love,
ValerieYan

My first aesthetic experience at Sliq Clinic (with video)

Hi ladies!!!!!

I believed Everyone wanna be beautiful / handsome , flawless and young forever .

I always imagine or photoshop to make my nose taller ,
 face shape sharper ,chin longer and eyes bigger etc and live in my own 'dream' . 

Until today, 
this is not a 'dream' anymore, finally I have a chance to enhance my face structure ! 
I've did some research and blogger reviews on which aesthetic should I go, 
there's a lot beauty saloon outside also provide this service with cheaper price too ,
BUT my grandma (she's newspaper biggest fan) told me beauty saloon in Malaysia only 15-20% 
Dr have the licence for aesthetic. Others all are illegal . 
One day my friend introduce this clinic to me, she did her nose and chin from there too,
and it is very very natural compared to those surgery one . 
The best of all Dr Steve from Sliq clinic is legal Dr with licence !
so I made an appointment with him :D

* cheeky smile *
friendly nurse is helping me apply numb cream on my nose & chin. 
can you see how excited am I !! 

and just wait for around 15-20 minutes !
I can't really feel my nose & chin anymore 

The filler I'm using is Juvederm from USA,  FDA approved . 
Injectable filler (injectable cosmetic filler, injectable facial filler) is a soft tissue filler injected into the skin to help fill in facial wrinkles, restoring a smoother appearance. Most of these fillers are temporary because they are eventually absorbed by the body.


the needle is extremely thin , I don't feel anything seriously !

now is my chin !
the whole progress only took around 10-15 minutes (or maybe lesser) 

Took this picture straight after the injection. 
My nose is still red but I can see the result immediately !


Before 
-my face shape is round & oval ,  face is basically flat. I got no nose bridge at all .
After 
- My nose finally have nose bridge !!! my nose instantly look smaller too! 
easiest way to tell , you can look at the shadow & highlight on my nose. 
 Finally I have a sharper chin & slimmer face shape! 
*oh I felt like removing my mole's as well* 




This is from my camera & phone. 
Trust me, Once you did Aesthetic on your nose and chin, you'll selfie non stopppppp! 
you'll love yourself more & more :P

*bonus* 
My friend Janice did it as well ! On her chin & a bit on her nose. 
She look so pretty now! 

and I had an interview with Sliq Clinic as well, 
once the video is done will upload here again for you'll ! 


The video is ready !!! 
Enjoy! 



Thanks to Dr Steve Chia once again ! 
Thanks for your professional advise & suggestion ! 
Say good bye to the old me & welcome the new me! 
I am very happy with the results *screams*
jumping around like a child

Tips on how do I get an acne free face

Hello ladies! 
Today I'm gonna share some tips about how do I maintain a smooth and acne free skin ! 
Last year my face is very very very bumpy with full of red dots, small acne , big acne and large pores! 
Even foundation can't really cover well  :(  
(well of course, make up will make it worst . If you encounter such problem it's good to let your skin rest and keep clean until it recover) 
My worst face . One year ago . 

Tried a lot of different acne /combination skin care but none of them cure my problems. 
Until 
.
.
.


1) the suitable product for our skin!


Step 1 
CLEAN & CLEAR ESSENTIALS Foaming Facial Cleanser cleans skin and washes away problem-causing dirt, oil, and make-up to help skin stay clean and healthy. The rich lather is oil-free and gently removes dirt and oil without over-drying and leaves skin clean and refreshed.

Step 2
CLEAN & CLEAR ESSENTIALS Oil-Control Toner for Sensitive Skin contains salicylic acid acne-fighting medication that treats and helps prevent pimples.






Step 3 
CLEAN & CLEAR ESSENTIALS Moisturizer combines oil-free moisture with a proven acne-fighting ingredient. It can help to moisturize dry skin while treating and helping to prevent breakouts. It leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth.


When I have acne problem the first thing appeared in my mind is Clean&Clear , 
I used it all the time while during my secondary school for 5 years!
 after collage my pimples is getting lesser & lesser probably hormone problem. 
and last year suddenly acne attack me again , straight away went to guardian get Clean&Clear products, it helps to clear your skin, prevent future breakouts and keep your skin looking healthy with our acne treatments. It took around 2 to 3 weeks to see the improvement of my skin.
best of all the price is very reasonable & I can get it anywhere :D 

2) Be happy & rested !!!!


Do something you like, you enjoy, you interested! 
people nowadays from 8am work until 6pm , dinner, shower and go to bed. 
where is your hobby? 
I like to hang out with friends , I like to listen music and movie ! 
-The sleep hormone melatonin is secreted by the pineal gland in the brain during hours of darkness and is switched off at dawn by the bright light of day. 
It helps you to sleep and regulates your body clock. 
-If you ignore your natural biological day/night rhythms by staying up very late, jetting across time zones, or working night shifts, you may pay the price with an out-of-synch body clock. Fatigue, lack of energy, skin problem , lapses in memory and concentration are typical symptoms.
Stress causes hormones to fluctuate and your body to produce extra sebum (oil), which can lead to acne. Stress can often also trigger you to eat worse and sleep less—both of which can contribute to making your acne worse. However, no need to stress more! You’d be surprised at how dancing around your room or laughing really hard with your best friend can help stress melt away.


3) drink lots of water!!!!!! 

Water Helps Keep Skin Looking Good. Your skin contains plenty of water, and functions as a protective barrier to prevent excess fluid loss. 
"Dehydration makes your skin look more dry and wrinkled, which can be improved with proper hydration,But once you are adequately hydrated, the kidneystake over and excrete excess fluids.
You can also help "lock" moisture into your skin by using moisturizer, which creates a physical barrier to keep moisture in.


4) Fruits & vegetables !!!


with lots of Vitamin C. Vitamin C is also a super antioxidant. It is needed for a strong immune system, radiant skin and helps blemishes heal properly. The best sources are blackcurrants, blueberries, broccoli, guava, kiwifruits, oranges, papaya, strawberries and sweet potatoes.
my favourite is broccoli & melon! 

Above is my tips on how to maintain an acne free face ! 
Hope it helps ! :D 


love,
ValerieYan

Iqueen wrapping mask ex REVIEW The NEW concept mask from Korea

Hello ladies! 

Sorry for MIA(missing in action) for almost 2 weeks because a new born baby is in the house yo! 
actually I took all this picture's almost a month ago, but not time to edit :( 

Finally!
Thanks to Muffinbeauty.com and I had a chance to try out this special mask from Korea.

What is IQueen Wrapping Mask EX? 
IQueen Wrapping Mask EX is specially formulated facial mask, 
It is a peel off type mask, film and gel with water. New concept mask of skin adhesive film.

- Anti Wrinkle
- Whitening
- Pore Tightening
-Remove Powderly Dust 

1 box contains 5 pcs masks



each of the mask came with Step 1 & Step 2. 

Step 1 : Power Lifting Serum (7g) 
The serum is kinda thick but absorb very fast into my skin. I don't feel any lifting or tighten yet. 

HOW TO USE :
1, Apply the serum evenly on the face (use 1.5g ONLY!) 

But, how do I know i get the correct g? 
so I just agak-agak la 
I dint read the description properly and I apply ALL on step 1 -_-'' 
so I have to open another mask to get the serum for the following step. 

Step 2 : Adhere the film onto the face

I thought it was a normal cotton mask or what. 
When I open I was shocked ! 
why there's a booklet in it?! 
where is my mask? 

the mask is in the booklet ... 

the material is something I never seen nor touch before! 
I doesn't know how to describe the texture , very thin, very light , something like plastic?


with a small tiny little holes on it 

Step 2 : Apply the rest of the serum evenly on the soluble film (use 5.5g) 
pardon my eye bags, look damn huge here lol

use the remaining serum apply on the film again. 
within few mins magic happened!!! 
I can feel the film is shrinking ! It's so amazing & new to me!


after 20minutes just peel it off from bottom .
Try to tie or pin up every single baby hair you have,
 because if stick into the film is kinda hard to remove. Ouch !

tada! 

after the film shrunken it become harden and the small holes are gone. 
Incase you're wondering will the mask pull out whiteheads and blackheads as well?
 the answer is no. haha. 


Before & after
I felt my skin is tighten & firmer , but it dint shown in picture. 
I guess the most obvious part is it does clam down my red skin & fairer . 
I guess this mask is more suitable for women who 25yr old and above,  who have wrinkles & big pores. 

hope you like my review! 
thanks for your time ;D

Love,
ValerieYan
