Okinawa Deep Sea Water Mask by V 10 Plus

Hello everyone!!

I'm back with V 10 Plus, a brand that offering products with water based formula, no paraben, no chemical fragrance, no artificial color and no mineral oil. So those with sensitive skin may found relieves in these products, one of the item carried is called Okinawa Deep Sea Water Mask, and on the packaging it was clearly said: Suitable even for Super Sensitive Skin.

-*-


Details from http://www.v10plus.co.jp/products/special-care/v10plus-okinawa-water-mask:

V10Plus Okinawa Water Mask contains sodium hyaluronate. A gel type moisture pack rich in deep sea water derived from the beautiful sea surrounding Okinawa (a Southern Island In Japan). It is rich in hyaluronic acid, seaweed extracts and minerals to hydrate and moisturize the skin. It improves elasticity of the skin and protects the skin from dryness. it effectively tones and provides optimal hydration for the skin that has been severely affected by UV rays in summer or doing outdoor sports.

Directions: Apply a thin layer of water mask onto thoroughly cleansed face (including eyes and lip area). Ideally, you may leave it in through the entire night. Alternatively, leave it on for 20 or 30 minutes. wipe of with a wet towel and pat it dry lightly. Recommend to use it daily or 3 times a week

-*-

So on a cleaned skin, use this clear gel like mask directly onto the skin, no need using a toner or anything else. Well, actually I found 2 ways of using the product. The first is to leave it overnight, like a sleeping mask, so before using the mask I use the serum (also from V10Plus). Even thou their products are compatible with any other product from other brand, this time, as a sleeping mask, the only serum I recommend is from V10Plus since they are both water based and so easy to be absorbed by the skin, so I don't want any hindrance which sometime can occur when using other products from other brand due to it's natural origin or formula.

The second way to use it is like any other mask, on a clean face and use it for 15 minutes (like mentioned in the packaging) or 20-30 minutes (like mentioned in the details from the website) and then clean it off or rinse it off.

-*-





The gel looks super cute and refreshing too!

On this post, I will show you the second way of using the product.

-*-




This is my before face, take note that all the images here has gone through NO editing process for the real effect result and review.

I clean my face and use no toner. Immediately, applying Okinawa Deep Sea Water Mask to the skin.

The feeling and sensation it created is just lovely. Perfect for anytime of the day.

-*-



I think I use around 3 almond size for the whole face. For sleeping mask, a thinner layer is enough, well actually a thin layer will definitely do, but it wont be shown on the images ^^ so I just show you what 3 almond sizes mask can do ya.

-*-



There's no sensitivity, heat, warm, tingling sensation, just pure comfort. This is really nice actually, I love a mask that provide moisture, hydration and minerals without a fuss.

-*-




After more than 15 minutes (below 20 minutes) the gel appears to be lesser on the surface. The cooling feeling is wonderful, imagine using it on a hot summer days, or perhaps after a day in the sun, your skin will appreciate the healing properties it gives, like the dried skin regain its live back.

-*-




Then I use a damp towel and clean it up. This is my after look. A fully hydrated skin that feels ultra comfortable and supple. I love it and would like to use it often.

Take note that since the skin is hydrated, it does appears younger, fresher and less oily. Oils are a compensation of our lack of hydration on the skin, so by keeping the 'water level' optimum at skin cells, we're keeping them happy and healthy.

Tips: In using it as a sleeping mask, try to leave it for 30 minutes before tossing in. You don't want the mask to ends up on the pillow case more than your face right, side sleeper?! 

Thank you V10Plus, always a pleasure in reviewing your products!

Stay tune for more.

Shiseido Rosarium Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Soap, and Body Milk

Hello ladies ^^

Recently a very nice friend just went back from Japan and he got me these lovely gifts. A set of Shiseido Rosarium, from shampoo, conditioner, body soap and body milk.

-*-




Simple products that highlighted on the fragrance, the lovely rose scent is wonderful and feminine. The series also come with a perfume, which I think I've tried them when in Singapore. They are all focusing on the rose garden scent.

The packaging is pretty and suitable as a gift that any girl will like.  Let's see each of them, shall we?!

-*-


If you think that the packaging look familiar, it does! There are other brand that tries to copy the packaging, well they do have cute exterior. But the scent? So far, Shiseido original rose is the real deal.

-*-




These are the ingredients of the products. You may read it more here: http://www.shiseido.co.jp/baraen/index.htm

And here are my reviews on using them ^^

-*-




The shampoo is superb! Most brand that highlighted on the scent usually neglecting some essentials needed for the other properties, but Shiseido doesn't do that. The easily lathered on shampoo smells like I'm in a spa and the silky effect of the product also loved by mu hair. Scalp is cleaned and the hair strands doesn't dry out.

The conditioner is a creamy product that make the ends fells soft and manageable. The duo works well together and I wish the scent last longer than a few hours.

They may not build for severely damage hair but hair condition such as normal, dry and colored may use them happily.

-*-




The body soap is wonderful as well. The easily lathered on formula makes me want to stay in the shower longer. The aroma of rose lingering on and on, it is hard to end it ^^ it's a good thing the body milk is next so the scent last longer on the body. The milky lotion feels silky as well with no sticky nor greasy residue, suitable for almost all skin type.

-*-



These are the texture of the products. The shampoo and the body soap is somewhat similar, the body milk is like a rich thick cream but feels soft and light on the skin. The moisturizing effect is refreshing and suitable for daily use. The conditioner and shampoo is the same, products that are suitable for daily use for being so light and gentle.

-*-



Thank you so much Y san ^^
