Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm: Better late than never


I think I am probably the last person to dip my finger in a cleansing balm pot.
My skin is combination towards oily. My ideal cleanser is a gel or foam that would give me that refresh feeling. So an oil based cleanser is on the other end of the spectrum which I would never thought of touching. However, during the transition of seasons recently, my skin has turned a bit dry and dehydrated! Who would have thought?? It was a new sensation to me, and I was like “help! What’s going on?!” Then I accidentally saw the Emma Hardie Amazing Face Moringa Cleansing Balm and the voice in my head just went “Yes!! This is what I need!”  So I bought it.

It is a big tub and it comes with a double-sided cleansing cloth. The idea is you can either use the smooth side to remove the balm, or use the rougher side to exfoliate at the same time.

And Oh-MY-God! It was sooooo good!!! I took a little lump and massaged it onto face dry face as a makeup remover. The balm turned into an oil and melt into my skin. When I massaged my eyelashes well too in order to take off my water-proof mascara. The balm was so soft that it don’t sting my eyes at all! Then I took a little but of warm water to my face, which the oil would turn milky into a cream, I would rub my face a little bit more then rinsed everything off with warm water. Note that I hadn’t used the cloth to clean. I don’t find it I need to.
Afterwards my face felt so clean! Skin felt soft to touch, very hydrated but not greasy at all! I was amazed by how much I liked the end results!

On the box, it says the balm can be used at an overnight treatment, which I have tried too! I put a thin layer before I got to bed, instead of my night cream. The scent is soothing which is great in relaxing & calming before sleep. The next morning all the essential oil goodness in the balm are absorbed by my skin and my face feels smoother and looks plumper.

All I can say is – it is indeed a cleansing balm that would gives you an “Amazing Face”! I am a total convert like everyone else. Better late than never I guess!

Budget Buy: MUA nail polish in Natural Days

When I was in Superdrug to buy the Tiffany colours (NYC nail polishes  - check out my blog post here ), as the offer was 3 for 2 across all nail polishes, I picked up a MUA polish as my freebie. I saw this pastel baby pink colour in Natural Days. The colour looks really cute in the bottle.

Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum

Lately I have been obsessed with the Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum . In the past I tried the Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution, it was alright but I didn’t find the result that amazing. So when I got a sample of for this Estee Lauder Enlighten Serum, I didn’t have high hopes … But how wrong I was! The sample bottle lasted me for two generous weeks and after that I rushed out to get the full size. Although it is called a serum, it is a light milky lotion texture, it is easily absorbed into skin and it feels moisturising. With the sample bottle, I used it every night after my cleansing routine. I can see visible results to my face after two weeks. My blemish marks are significantly lighter (my main concern) and the skin tone for the rest of my face is visibly more even.  Now I have the full size bottle (30ml, also available in 50ml size), I am going to follow the instructions to use it both day and night. Use it at night to reduce
