The Good and The Forbidden

Feeling perky: KORRES Wild Rose + Vitamin C Sleeping Facial

Comments : 7

I remember I wanted this product for the longest time. Actually, it came in a set with the Wild Rose Buff Cleanser which I missed out on and was bummed about it. Then lady luck was on my side and the set came out again a few months later in Sephora. The set was sold for US$48, a good price isn’t it? The Sleeping Facial alone was US$48. So really, the Buff Cleanser is the bonus here. I didn’t think twice and I snatched it up, quickly!

The complete name is KORRES Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial. It’s a mouthful, I usually just refer it as KORRES Wild Rose Sleeping Facial.

Wishlist: Lipstick Queen Velvet Rope Lipsticks

Comments : 6

I think I knew that I’m going to have a serious addiction with red lipsticks the moment I bought my first. There are just tons of reasons why I love these red pouts. That being said though, I do not just buy all the reds that I see. I handpicked them carefully. It’s a curated collection. Well, it applies to all of my lipsticks really, but I’m more selective when it comes to reds. Extra selective.

Comes in Lipstick Queen Velvet Rope Lipsticks, my latest lemming.

Face Oil Virgin: Trilogy Rosehip Oil Antioxidant +

Comments : 3

Now, let this be an advance notice that I am a beginner in the whole face oil territory. I’ve only started using face oil dutifully sometime earlier this year. I began interested in face oil after reading DesZell’s article about the Trilogy Rosehip Oil Antioxidant+. Believe me, I still had that why-the-hell-do-I-want-to-put-oil-on-my-face look. But then, lucky strike came along and I got this at an auction for an extremely good price, or shall I say, cheap! I thought, hey, why not give this a chance.

I tried this a couple of times, three, max, and decided I didn’t like it. Or, more like I was confused about it. I feel it didn’t quite fit right into my still-raw skincare regime. And so, I left it on my vanity table for the longest time. That was in 2013. Not until I read the article again and by then my skincare regime had fully grown, I felt the need to give this another try.

What’s Coming

Leave a Comment

Well, I’ve accumulated a few goodies lately so I will be reviewing them one at a time.

Obviously, someone’s got a problem…

I don’t like to rush when it comes to making reviews, especially when doing skincare. I like to really use them for quite a bit first, finding the nook and crannies of the formula, trying to fit them into the regime and see how they perform.

It’s mind-boggling really when I see a ‘review’ of a product from someone who’ve just used it for a day, or two. Nope, you will never see such here. OK, if I do, then it will be called a first impression 🙂

Of course, not every product that I got will always end up being reviewed. It will go into the bowl as I see fit. Watch out for nail art posts too, and food.

In the mean time, please do check out FemaleDaily.com for my previous writings.

Stay tuned!
