Solving the flakiness puzzle!

Flaky skin peels off really like a piece of puzzle... Sometimes the pieces ain't complete!



Whatever it is, back to basics is always my cure!
Since I came back from much-polluted Malaysia air, my nose & face were all thirst of hydration & moisture!
Reminds me yet again to appreciate my Singapore fresh humid air!





I always preach to my staff/ friends/ clients to Customise ur skincare to ur skin needs which infinitely change when air, water & temperature change around us.








I have a store of products at home so now looking thru the stuffs to see what can help me!

I 1st exfoliate my skin with a powerful yet gentle facial scrub with exfoliating beads
@Soap&glory scrub ur nose in it is my cure!





And then use a antiAging serum with hydrating ingredients!
@Sephora super loaded age defy serum to the rescue!





(did a Sephora review 6/6 stars for this product!) Read it here --->

And complete with moisturiser to lock in all the benefits from serum!
I luve Soap&glory catch a wrinkle in time day moisturizer!
Also my current fave: Skinz UV white day cream.

Pls Remember to use a sunscreen!
I was appalled over last night dinner with my girlfriends that some didn't use daily sunscreen!
Double OMGG!!!
I love loreal uv expert or boscia illuminating spf30 sunscreen!

In the evening after work, I use #Shiffa tamanu moisturizing creme.





Put on a super water mask for 15mins and massage a little to allow the mask to sink in more. Usually I don't wash it off.

Skin79 BB cream & skin reviving serum


Been a crazy fan of BB creams 5years ago since 2006 & my 1st BB cream was Shills magic from Taiwan! (learnt abt it from 女人我最大 & witnessed its magic!)

Since then I have been madly in love with BB creams & their amazing coverage without looking like u put makeup on & that's the key.
I love trying out new& different types of BB creams I can get my hands on!




The trend for 2010 & 2011 is all about second skin! Faking gorgeous perfect skin using makeup that even boosts skincare properties especially since we are wearing makeup all day long!

BB creams originated from Germany for there are laser surgery patients who need covering up yet the formula must be gentle & helps recovery! So BB creams were born.
Korea being a country prevalent with plastic surgery of recent years, brought about the craze of BB creams!

I've tried many different types of BB creams & not all BB creams are created equal!
The 1st generation of BB creams are greyish in color& often too light!
Nowadays u find BB creams really enhance ur skin tone & blend in so effortlessly naturally!

My current faves:
- Skin79 hot pink BB cream
- Missha perfect cover BB
- baviphat BB cream for dry skin



All products are made in Korea.

That day at skin79 shoot, Lorraine passed me a bottle of serum to try! It's their new skincare product!
I just tried it & luve the slight fragrance & smooth texture!
It's highly concentrated with whitening properties, hyaluronic acid, flower extracts, salicylic acid, cactus extract to brighten & smooth out skin tone!

It absorbs so fast I dun have to wait for it to dry before moisturizer! ;)
