EVENT: Fancl's Ballet of Beauty (Part II)

This entry is the continuation to my Fancl's Ballet of Beauty soiree (Read it here! :D). I'll be introducing the products that make up Fancl's Basic Skincare line. (:

Fancl's Basic Skincare line consists of just 4 steps (5, if you remove your makeup!)! Remember, all that Fancl wants to do are the necessaries and she wants to do it with as few chemicals as possible. Bid preservatives goodbye! :DDD

Step 1: Cleanse with Fancl's Facial Washing Powder.

With the touch of water, Fancl's Facial Washing Powder lathers into a dense, fluffy and creamy foam. Formulated with Advanced Amino Hybrid Technology, the foam gently lifts sebum and impurities from your skin while retaining its essential moisture. This gentle facial cleanser, that is suitable for all skin types, leaves your skin feeling baby soft and silky smooth.

Step 2: Moisturize with Fancl's Lotion.

Fancl'sLotion contains moisturizing agents wrapped in Lecithin Capsules. These enhance the deep penetration of the lotion for healthier skin that is more supple. The lotion also helps to protect your skin from stress caused by the environment, especially from the harmful UV rays.

Step 3: Nourish with Fancl's Milky Lotion.

Fancl's Milky Lotion seals in the moisturizing benefits of Fancl's Lotion with nutrients for long-lasting hydration. The lotion is rich in Veiling Agents that are wrapped in Lecithin Capsules. They seal in the moisture and prolong its retention inside your skin. It also protects your skin from external irritants and leaves it soft and supple.

Step 4: Maximise hydration with Fancl's Overnight Hydrating Pack

Cocoon your skin with Fancl's Overnight Hydrating Pack to reveal a velvety smooth and plump complexion the next morning. Designed to maximise our time, this pack takes the form of a silky veil that repairs and protects the skin while you get your beauty sleep.

Step 5 (Optional): Remove colours with Fancl's Mild Cleansing Oil.

Fancl's Mild Cleansing Oil is dubbed 'The One-Minute Wonder'. It removes the most stubborn grime in just one rise, in just one minute! Without leaving any oily residue, this oil is enriched with Meadow Foam Oil that helps in removing keratin plugs (Clogs your pores!), protects and retains your skin's natural moisture. Green Tea Leaf Powder Extract and Rosehip Oil are also added to eradicate free radicals and facilitate smooth application with minimal friction.

The aforementioned Fancl products are kept fresh for a year and once opened, they last for 60 days. I started my Fancl regimen on September 9th (Except for the Mild Cleansing Oil! Too many makeup removals on hand at the moment!) and I'm liking it so far! The fact that Fancl products are without preservatives really appeals to me as I'm getting more particular about ingredients now. (: I'll write my review after a month's of usage so stay tuned! :D

Dearest Rachel, upon learning that my photos of the ballet performance were blurred, sent me some shots (She is the sweetest PR ever! :DDD ). Enjoy!

Juliet, the ballerinas and me! :DDD

HAUL: Bath & Body Works

From not a single ounce of Bath & Body Works to this *points above and jumps around*! Bath & Body Works was having what I deemed as a massive sale over the summer vacation, so having lusted after these babies for an incredibly long time, some Whatsapp messages were sent and TADAHHH!

Thanks Lennard and HG for lugging this back from the land where beauty products abound!

P.S.: Did you know that Bath & Body Works is available at Changi Airport?!? A small collection though. But yay! It's a baby step!

REVIEW: LEADERS InSolution's Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch

Back in July, I received a box of LEADERS InSolution's Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch, along with some other goodies (Next entry! :D). Thanks Joyce for the lovely parcel!

Our eye areas/ eye bags are probably the toughest part of our face to tackle. The skin there is sensitive and ugh! So. Friggin'. Dark. And as we pile on all our other skin care products, which require us to avoid our eye areas,our eye bags get seemingly darker and more pronounced.

Darkness aside, we are also besieged with problems like dryness and lines. Thankfully, there are a plethora of eye creams and serums out there. But just like the rest of our skin, every once in a while, we need a little more pampering than what creams and serums can provide. We need a little perk-me-up session... And here's where LEADERS InSolution jumps in like Superman with the Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch!



The box of Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch contains 5 pairs of patches that will deliver a miracle in 20 minutes. The active ingredients are

Broccoli Extract: Brightens skin tone.
Berry Complex: A source of antioxidants.
Marine Collagen: Enhances skin elasticity.
Snail Mucus: Moisturizes the skin.
Green Tea Extract: Calms the skin.

The patches are free from parabens, preservatives, pigments and colourants.



And here's how the patch looks like, along with the set of instructions on how to use it!

The patches are made of this gel-like, flexible texture and it is because of this that the patches adhere to the contours of the bone structure under our eyes and to our skin easily. There is no chance for air bubbles to happen at all.

When they are placed under your eyes, there is this really relaxing and cooling effect. I just want to lie down and go to slumber land! The patches are also adequately soaked in the essence; there was no dripping of the essence when I had them on.



After using a box of the Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch, I found that the lines under my eyes, especially my right, are not as obvious as before. They are still there but seem less deep. The skin under my eyes is definitely more hydrated.

However, I didn't notice any brightening effect. Then again, brightening of any part of your skin does require a rather long period of time for it to be visible so I probably need a few more boxes of this.

I think that the Hydrogel Eye Therapy Patch provides a good hydrating, perk-me-up session for your eyes. The patches will come extremely handy after a long day at work, especially if you sit in front of the computer for long hours. (:



Before I leave, do take note that LEADERS' InSolution's September promotion is still ongoing! :D

P.S.: Get excited for a coming entry! :DDD
