Yoshimomo Foaming Facial Scrub – A Guilty Pleasure

September 29, 2016

In the midst and fame of chemical exfoliants, regardless of how efficient and great they are, deep inside, I still miss that good old scrubbing. After two rounds of KORRES Wild Rose Buff Cleanser, I was out finding something else to fill the void. Not that the product wasn’t good, I just felt it’s time to move on from it.

Then, I came across this product when I was out e-shopping in Yoshimomo‘s website. I got intrigued by the name and clearly it’s enough for me to put it into the shopping cart.
It’s a scrub, y’all.

Yoshimomo Alpha Beta AHA + BHA Foaming Facial Scrub.

Diptyque For The Face – Sensory Sophistication

June 29, 2015

diptyque is known for their luxurious, fancy scented candles and fragrances. I’m not really into them because I find them (the candles) to be too high of a maintenance for me. Besides, from what I’ve seen so far, a lot of people buy them for the decorative quality of it. You know, for the extra likes in the Instagram photo. Not for the actual lit action. Sure, I can re-use the glass container for my makeup brushes. But I just think that’s not enough to justify the purchase.

That being said, I am interested in the skincare line, L’Art du Soin (for the Face), which I wrote about my interest in them sometime ago here. To my surprise, they are available locally in The Papilion Duo, Pacific Place, Jakarta. Sadly, the mark-up was a little too much for me.

I knew, however, that I can get them in Hong Kong, in Joyce Beauty to be exact.
That’s where I got them.

KORRES Wild Rose Daily Brightening & Refinishing Buff Cleanser

October 28, 2014

That’s one heck of a name. Seriously though, what is up with the long names? Let’s just call it KORRES Wild Rose Buff Cleanser, shall we? Or Buff Cleanser. I got this in a set with KORRES Wild Rose Sleeping Facial. Amazing set, amazing deal, I couldn’t have asked for more.

Ever since I saw this showed up on Sephora, I wanted to grab it right away. Good thing that I waited, otherwise I would kick myself hard when I see the set being sold.
