Honey, Ginseng, Kiehl's

Posted on Friday, January 6, 2017

Popped by the launch of Kiehl's all new Pure Vitality Skin Renewing Cream as Mong Chin's plus one (♥) and now my bureau is all swagged up in everything Kiehl's! Made our own tea concoction (mine was green tea +peppermint + cinnamon), bumped into many familiar faces, stuffed my face with all the Kiehl's themed goodies!

The Kiehl's Pure Vitality Skin Renewing Cream is the 4th in line of Kiehl's best-selling moisturisers, and contains Manuka Honey from New Zealand, which helps protect the skin from environmental stressors like UV damage and pollution; and Red Ginseng Root from Korea. It launches in Singapore this month (January 2017) and will retail at S$95.00 for 50ml!

On personal use, the cream is slightly heavier than their best selling Ultra Facial Cream and takes more time to absorb into the skin, so I like using this one more at night where I have more time to let it really sit and have all the goodness soak in to my skin; but it really stays with you all day (and smells great)!

I'm not one of those people who believe in 100% organic products and I feel that science does have a part to play in our skincare, so I personally love how to Kiehl's brand balances both nature and science for a product that truly has efficacy!

Also, for the month of Jan-Feb 2017, if you purchase any of Kiehl's limited edition versions of it's moisturisers (the Ultra Facial Cream, Ultra Facial Oil-Free Gel Cream, or the Super Multi-Corrective Cream), S$2 of the proceeds will go to the Children's Cancer Foundation! So what better time to stock up for the year and help out a great cause!

Wedding Bells

So Justin and I were just discussing how weird it is to finally be old enough that when our friends get married / pregnant, we can actually be happy for them (instead of worried about their life choices, haha). Anyway, November and December was super packed with weddings - I still feel a bit young to actually be getting married so I've just been enjoying watching other people do so and the general pomp and circumstance that comes with the dressing up, the nice meals and catching up with old / new friends. And of course, like all girls, I have been taking some notes and giving some thought to what I truly want for my own wedding (when that day comes), but till then... I prefer to just be relatively stress free as the wedding guest!

Armour for Your Skin

Posted on Friday, December 30, 2016



I always feel like the luckiest girl whenever Skin Inc sends me stuff, this time in the form of their latest offering, the Pure Recovery Dew, which will be officially launching on 5th January 2017!

So far I've been using this as a priming moisturiser during Christmas before I put on make-up because of it's super lightweight gel-to-dew formula which absorbs super quick and is my preferred moisturiser in the day time since I am always in a rush (I struggle with perpetual lateness, it is true). I do sometimes use it at the end of the day to treat myself, cause TBH I kinda like the onsen smell now (yes, there is actual Japanese onsen water in this from a hot spring called the "Izumo Yumura", which apparently is the world's most revered hot spring. Dayum.)

Anyway, the hot spring is known for healing wounds, smoothing and calming irritated skin with redness and blemishes. Combined with hyaluronic water (which is important for moisturising), it's supposed to give my skin a nice finish as well by reducing lines and pores, hence perfect for pre-make up ritual to act as a barrier against against the sun and pollution.

But ok guys, really on a more serious note, I've been getting more and more moles and it's no joke. Do note that this product has no SPF, so remember to still put on your sunblock first!! Then this - you can even blend it with the Custom Daily Dose for the ultimate skin primer.

It's kinda awesome to begin your make up routine knowing you are protected!

The Skin Inc Pure Recovery Dew retails at SGD72.00 at the Skin Inc Concept Stores, Online Stores, Sephora and Zalora.
