COVERMARK Skin Clear Emulsion

Hello lovelies,

this is a post for everyone that has dull skin or oily, or those who need extra care of skincare that help skin rejuvenation. It is exfoliating but in the softest way and doesn't involve flaking off nor redness.

-*-



COVERMARK Skin Clear emulsion.

A range that is dedicated for a clear skin finish, spotless, and so smooth.

-*-

http://www.covermarksg.com

Gentle skin clear emulsion. This exfoliating emulsion gently removes dead cells that cause dull, uneven skin.

1. Gently removes dead skin cells that cause dullness and unevenness .
2. Contains 3 dead cells softeners.
3. Leaves skin supple and elastic while removing excessive dead cells.
4. Helps aid the absorption of treatment formula and cream.
5. Fragrance and colorant free.

How to use

Use after lotion in the morning and at night. taking two pumps onto palm, apply to entire face. Follow with a treatment formula.

-*-

The product comes in a soft orange bottle and a box that contain the details on the product. Everything is written on the box, pamphlet and website. I can easily find everything I need to know.

So, the thing about emulsion is, it's a product that used after serum and before moisturizer. And it was advice to use a hydrating serum and moisturizer with this product as it helps moisten the skin during the process.

-*-

The white milky fluid feels a bit tingling on my sensitive skin. I can't use it too often, more like once a week or less frequent. If you happen to have very dull (or thick) skin, you can simply use it more often.

As the product soften the dead skin, removing them will be easier, so do not use any scrub, or other exfoliating product while using Skin Clear Emulsion.

-*-

COVERMARK Skin Clear Emulsion helps easing the dark spots, acne marks and help reducing the pore sizes too. The skin will eventually become smoother, spotless and feels so fine when touched. I love how soft the skin become. The skin also appear more moist, perhaps since other skincare used ,after the dead skin being removed, penetrate easier. I don't necessarily use the emulsion with other products from COVERMARK, but I'm using it with other brands, so far none of them clashed. Just made sure I'm not using anything that also exfoliate or peel the skin, so the emulsion can have a peaceful time softening the dead skin where then the dead skin will comes off on it's own time.

Thank you COVERMARK Indonesia.

COVERMARK Treatment Cleansing Oil

Hello lovelies,

COVERMARK, a brand that offer many makeup base also share a cleansing product that helps removing every single makeup put on the face. Treatment Cleansing Oil, an oil that removes everything that doesn't belong to the skin.

-*-

http://www.covermarksg.com

A treatment cleansing oil that does it all.

1. 1 step makeup remover removes waterproof makeup without damaging the skin.
2. An oil remover that leaves no stickiness but instead a refreshing and smoother skin.
3. 82% of beauty essence ingredients, prevent DNA damages caused by reactive oxygen.
4. A relaxing woody flowery fragrance added to a refreshing citrus fragrance.

How to use

1. Hold an appropriate amount in the palm (4 to 5 pumps) then apply to the whole face. Blending well with make up. 2.Rinse off with water or tepid water thoroughly after applying. 3. Use with other cleansing products for best results.

-*-

It has a subtle fragrant aroma that helps calming when used. I'm using it on a dry and dirty skin, makeup, sun protection, they all will be removed using the cleansing oil. Including waterproof makeup. Everything just breaks off, looking at my waterproof mascara being swept away by the cleansing oil, or all those foundation just being expel from the skin, like particles. Red luscious lipstick moved from the lips, it's like magic

The key is to massage the oil well on a dry skin, using a clean dry hands. Let the oil touches everything (eyes closed) and let them have time in each of the part, so after distribution, make sure that every part that contains makeup has a glimpse of the oil and massaged. Enjoy the massage and while doing so, feel all those makeup being removed. After making sure that they are off from the skin, add a bit of water and emulsify every part. Rinse everything off with clean water and look how all the makeup has been disappeared while the skin remains soft, supple and very comfortable.

Use a foaming facial wash to perfected the cleansing routine. Use only the dense foams which is looks like a fluffy marshmallow to help taking off any possible leftovers or for those who prefer a squeaky clean feeling.

-*-

For me, COVERMARK Treatment Cleansing Oil is a sweet ending after a day using makeup. It is so easy to be used while in the shower, so before I touches everything else, even water, I use it first. When everything is still dry, it removes, cleanses and help my skin to stay moist during a warm shower. Afterwards, my skin doesn't feel taut nor dry. These areas on the upper cheeks can be easily irritated, so far, using the Treatment Cleansing Oil, those areas are never feel bothered, they stayed happy and calm.

-*-

Again, COVERMARK share another wonderful product that comes with quality and ingredients I can be happy about. A brand that deliver result and visible effects.

Thank you so much COVERMARK Indonesia.

COVERMARK Cell Advanced Serum

Hello lovelies,

I'm officially above 35 now and I'm using more serious skincare than ever. I'm not very good in keeping myself very healthy, I don't get enough sleep, I don't eat like a true nutritious person or at least try to eat less fat or red meat. I'm a foodie and love to eat different kind of food on daily basis. I rarely exercise,  if walking in the malls or do the dishes at home considered as an exercise, I'm grateful.

Hence, having a proper skincare is a must in keeping my skin up-to-date.

-*-

COVERMARK has introduced me to a world of good makeup base, now I'm exploring the skincare side of them.

-*-

This is the first serum from COVERMARK that I've tried and seems like it is a match with my skin condition.

-*-

http://www.covermarksg.com

The Fulfilling Beauty Serum. Recovers tightness and makes your skin moist, elastic and makeup-friendly.

This beauty serum was specially produced to provide a sensation of firm and abundantly hydrated skin. 　You will feel as if beauty has been delivered to all the cells of your face.
・Oligopeptides and other active ingredients support your skin’s natural beauty. Ample hydration will leave your skin looking hearty without texture irregularities and conspicuous pores.
・The smooth consistency of the lotion helps it penetrate deep inside your skin. Efficiently delivering
　beautifying compounds, the serum will make your skin tight and radiant.

　smooth and makeup-friendly.

How to use

Apply in the morning and evening. After conditioning your skin with the lotion, collect two or three pushes of the serum in the palm of your hand and massage generously on your face and neck.

-*-

The product comes in a luxurious golden sparkly plastic bottle that looks like a glass. It comes in a pumped container and everything works well. Each pumps deliver a smooth white creamy gel like texture and smells a bit like citrus.

I'm using the product after cleaning the skin and after toner. The serum glide on the skin nicely and making them moist and the feeling is comfortable. It felt rich but not greasy nor sticky, like it has a good nourishing ingredients for the skin that made the skin plump and supple.

-*-

I have a dry skin and clearly aging too. Some fine lines and stress do reveal through time. Using a good skincare helps the skin to retain all those condition using ingredients that benefits the skin.

The first thing that need to be done is adding moisture, a hydrated skin is flexible, stronger and has a better ability to fight against any aggressor. A healthy skin also appear calmer, it doesn't seems irritated, red, nor sensitive to the touch. A young skin appear firm and doesn't sag. All of these are signs of beautiful skin.

Through daily habit, lifestyle and proper skincare (plus a good gene and environment), the skin can fight aging much better. And for me, using COVEMARK Cell Advanced Serum helps in a way of a skincare.

-*-




Using the product on daily basis, twice a day, the product helps my skin day to day, keeping them moist, smooth and supple, it also helps retaining the nourishment inside with the moisturizer. A hydrated skin is always better any time. Never underestimate the power of a hydrated skin. The more moisture the skin is, the higher chance of survival it has against all odds.

Another bonus points are makeup stays better and more natural as well.

Tips, do try to use a gentle dead skin removal on monthly or perhaps every 2-3 weeks, depends on your skin's need. It help the formula to penetrate and works better as no dead skin cells gets in the way.

Thank you COVERMARK Indonesia. Another must try product from COVERMARK.

COVERMARK Clear Wash

Hello lovelies,

I hope you are all well when reading this post.

Ohhh how I love this product and so excited to share with you about COVERMARK Clear Wash.

-*-

http://www.covermark.co.th/


Powder Cleanser rich mixture of amino acids and mild. Skin Wash dirt cleanly Give your skin a radiant skin.

1. The combination of protein A trap dead skin cells, and has a solid surface to peel off the rose. Moisturise and smooth the skin.

2. Facial with natural ingredients. (Moisturizing ingredients) contained in the "Skincare Capsule" yellow pigment soon feel after cleansing the skin.

3. The powder was used as a powder resistant to moisture. Even in a room with humidity. Powder was not clot. Keep powder Trust in use until the final.

Breakfast, cold water on the carpet surface. Pour the powder from the bottle about 2 teaspoons of powder mixed with water on a dime. Beat until foaming powder Then the bubbles on the surface, apply to clean skin. Lather and rinse off with water.
(the details was taken from COVERMARK Thailand and the google translate made it so funny)
-*-

Most of the details are written in Japanese, but there is a pamphlet given that share everything we need to know about the product, and the ingredients listed on the box also written clearly.

And why do I love the product?

Here's why.

Since I was around 17 or something like that, I already love using skincare and cleansing is one of the thing which I think a must. Back then there's this product from Japan (not COVERMARK) that launches a cleansing powder. It's a foaming facial wash that contain enzyme and it cleans the skin really well. Since then around a decade later I found another Japanese brand that also have the similar method of cleansing but never available in Indonesia. Now, COVERMARK introduce me once again to the cleansing formula that I love. I'm not saying that they are all the same nor identical, but similar.

-*-

The product comes in this white powder, kinda like detergent :D it has that white and slightly dense powder which when touches by water, they'll turn slippery and soapy like with bubbles too.

-*-

Look how cute they are. And yes, it was made to help deep cleanse the skin without being too much. The result is rather squeaky but in a way that it help removing dead skin cells.

I'm not a fan of anything that over-exfoliate the skin and this one as well, it doesn't over-exfoliate, but do the job really well. The skin feels clean, the pores breaths easily, and so fresh.

-*-

They lathers up fine, the tiny bubbles feels so good on the wet skin. They doesn't cleans makeup, so do remove the makeup first and then followed by Clear Wash, on my dry skin, I'm using it like once a week, but those with oily/dull skin can do it more often.

On the wet skin, massage the skin with the bubbles using the gentles touch. The formula will work without the need of using force.

One of COVERMARK's staff gave me a tips, it can be used like a 'mask' too. After massaging with the bubbles, let them dried up a bit and then massage the skin again to let the dead skin off with the 'dried bubble's and then rinse everything off. The skin will feel ultra clean.

-*-

It's a feeling like I've just gone through a chemical peel in an expensive beauty clinic. After the skin is dry, I'm using the softener/lotion toner, serum, eye care and moisturizer, it's like everything is absorbed much, much better than before. The skin appear so soft and smooth. Since the dead skin has been removed, the skin appear so radiant and the glow is just so pretty.

-*-

Makeup used afterwards also appear to be more flawless and no flaky skin that comes off. I was amazed by the result.

I can confidently took a close up photos after using the product.

-*-

Thank you so much COVERMARK, Clear Wash is a great product. I recommend anyone to try it at least once. The formula just breaks dead skin cells off the skin without causing any damage, pain, or any negative effects. Use it as frequent as needed, no need using it too much as anything excessive is never a good thing. Use it just right and get the best benefit from COVERMARK Clear Wash.

TALIKA Photo-Hydra Serum

Hello lovelies,

another review for another product brought to me (and you) from TALIKA.

A product that works like a charm, especially when combined with their night cream.

-*-

I was given a tiny portion which is enough for 3-4 days, and using the product only need a few drops, so this tiny potion bottle can last until I see a difference.

-*-

How to use it

-*-

The serum comes in this clear and a bit like gel consistency. Fluid and easily distributed and absorbed by the skin. I'm using it after cleaning the skin and toner, right before moisturizer and like said above. Using the night cream from the same series made the product works in sync. The skin becomes moist and nicely hydrated without any feeling of greasy nor sticky. It was wonderful.

-*-

The serum can be used day and night, I don't need a lot, just a bit is enough, the elixir is creating it's magic on the skin.

The texture itself is perfect for all skin type, whether it is dry, combination, or oily.

TALIKA Photo Hydra Night

Hello lovelies,

this is a product from TALIKA.

Aside from their unique and specific products, they also have some that are 'ordinary', like a moisturizer that we can use on daily basis and considered as a 'normal' things in beauty products.

A night cream.

-*-

https://www.talika.com

How to use it

Apply in the evening to a thoroughly cleansed face, neck and décolleté.

-*-

The white, slightly thick cream with a hint of subtle floral scent feels good on the skin. And the first thing that I noticed is the plumpness it created on my skin. It making the skin appear younger as it provide moisture and nourishment. I can't really say the nourishing part as I can't really see microscopic but my skin gives the significant differences in just a week of using the product.

The lines looks relaxed, the skin appear more flawless with the reduced pores in sizes, and the glow it created, and everything it between. I really like the effects on my skin every single morning. The skin does need more moisture at night as it sleeps, and the cream does provide what the skin's need to rejuvenate during sleep and 'gain confidence' when waking up. A good night sleep that reflected on the skin.

-*-

Thank you so much TALIKA, this is definitely one of the product worth trying for.

Talika Lipocils Expert Review

Hello lovelies,

finally, after numerous time using the product and sharing it on my blog, I can now happily made this post with before after images.

I was always forget to took the after images, or use the product diligently, now, I'm still occasionally forgot but try my best to remember. So this is my review after using it for a month (not necessarily everyday but kinda almost everyday).

-*-

You can read about my previous posts here:

http://whileyouonearth.blogspot.co.id/2010/09/talika-lipocils-28-days-start-here.html

And

http://whileyouonearth.blogspot.co.id/2013/07/i-take-lipocils-expert-challenge.html

-*-




So yes, there has been several incomplete reviews regarding the product. Now, it finally completed.

Below is my lashes before the treatment begin. Before using Lipocils (again).

-*-




And below is the after, it looks so much longer. When my eyes are open the lashes are filling the top part and we can see the tips of the lashes while before the treatment it was short.

-*-

And when closed, the differences are much more visible. They are longer for sure.

And why do I need to keep using Lipocils every now and then?! The key is in the regrowth, as a natural part of a human being, everything doesn't last, we are immortal, so does our lashes. They'll grow and depart sooner or lather, hence a new one will come and need Lipocils again. And then, I use many falsies again and sometime accidentally pluck one or two off, or using eyelash extension and add extra burden to the lashes and caused them to grow weary and leave early and so on. Hence the new ones that just in their grow spurt need a fresh new help, from a fresh new Lipocils.

We just need to be patience and diligent in using it daily. Twice if possible. When everything is still clean, like after shower, and the feeling of using the product, is a bit sting at first, but I get used to it after a few application. I always prefer using it when I'm at home and doesn't have a plan to go anywhere, as it doesn't really goes well with a waterproof mascara, as it will made them 'bleed' as in not really waterproof anymore.

There you go, a complete post for Talika's Lipocils Expert. One of the best solution for a longer, thicker and darker lashes.

Thank you Talika Indonesia.

Yves Rocher Rinsing Vinegar

Hello lovelies,

on my recent trip to Yves Rocher, this is the item that actually got me inside their store. This is the first time I met a product for the hair that comes in the word vinegar.

There are many home remedies that involve vinegar, apple cider, or something similar that said to add shine and health to the hair. Now, come in a handy formula using ingredients that I hope to be better than those home remedies, and perhaps, more practical too.

-*-

http://www.yvesrocherusa.com

Rinsing Vinegar

Enhances hair’s natural shine!

A genuine traditional remedy revisited by Yves Rocher to enhance the natural shine of your hair and leave it radiant with beauty!

Its delectable scent alone is a divine sensory experience.

The Plus: Its delectable scent!

- To be used before the final rinse

- Care for all hair types

- Tested under dermatological supervision

Obtained through a natural fermenting process, vinegar is an acid compound known for its hair-smoothing properties and power to reduce limescale build up.

The vinegar chosen by Yves Rocher Botanical Beauty Research is of guaranteed French origin.

Key botanicals: raspberry vinegar of guaranteed French origin.

Ingredients: aqua/water/eau, acetum/vinegar/vinaigre, parfum/fragrance, palmitamidopropyltrimonium chloride, caprylyl/capryl glucoside, propylene glycol, salicylic acid, aroma (flavor), cetrimonium chloride, citric acid, methylpropanediol, alcohol, ci 14700 (red 4), ci 17200 (red 33), ci 42090 (blue 1)

-*-

The product comes in this cute pharmacy looking container. It has a tip that dispense the product well, without letting anything goes to waste, I can drip some on the palm and use it on my hair.

After shampooing, use conditioner or mask, or whatever I please, i put some of the vinegar onto the hair but not on the scalp. I distribute the watery liquid as evenly as possible, I love the juicy raspberry scent, and massage the product a bit on the hair. Rinse everything off and continue to dry my hair.

As I have over processed hair, I don't really expect the product to works instantly. The scent doesn't really last too, it is gone when I finished rinsing, and the product does add a bit shine to my matte colored hair. But for those who are looking for an instant gorgeous locks with radiating shine would definitely disappointed.

-*-

As for me, do I feel disappointed? Not really. Vinegar helps breaks down deposits on the hair, eventually, they'll shine better and prettier too, like healthy hair do.

-*-

Do I recommend it to anyone? Sure, it's better in terms of smell than conventional vinegar.

Oya Clinic Relaxing Treatment

Hello lovelies,

some time ago, like perhaps, almost 6-9 months :D I was invited by Oya Clinic for an event at one of the most prestigious location in the town.

As usual, Oya Clinic is presenting their most proud treatments which I yet to try. Ulthera and their famous face and body shaping treatments.

-*-

On the event, they also share a bit about Oya's backgrounds and all the breakthrough they've made.

One of their patented item is the sticky gel-like brown creams that are used during the treatment. A special formula created by Oya.

-*-

A live demo of face shaping is shown during the event and all the guess can freely ask or even try a bit.

It was a brief but concluded presentation, I think everyone get the idea of how the treatment works. I've also tried their facial shaping and enjoying every little bit of it. Their treatments are comfortable and doesn't involve pain.

-*-

After the event, I'm given a voucher to try their Relaxing Treatment, which I just had today heehee. Yes, I've been really busy and postponing pleasure.

The treatment took around 60 minutes. Start with cleansing, scrub, and then they use this metal thingy that 'collect' dead skin cells and things that can be obtain like white heads, they found quite a lot around the nose. The procedure is not as painful as extraction but the pointy areas does feel a bit, like scrapping the skin.

Continue with the massage, which I think worth every minute of it and so relaxing. I'm kinda addicted to the massage and would love going back for the massage alone. The technique itself is superb.

Followed by a mask, a usual paper mask that we seen a lot in the market that helps hydration.

-*-

-*-

After 20 minutes of using the mask, the skin is prep with moisturizer and sun protection.

Thank you so much Oya Clinic, this is one of the best facial I've had in years. My skin feels and looks so clean and the massage given by the therapist is spot on. Ease out all the stresses away.
