Neutrogena Deep Clean Cleansing Oil

Everyday we put on skincare products and makeup on our skin. Especially to protect our skin from the harsh sun and environment. At the end of the day, we also need to take care of our skin when we remove all the makeup and skin care, letting our skin take a breather.

How about a one step cleansing oil that removes makeup, cleanse and nourishes the skin, for us busy bees?

Neutrogena recently launched two new deep clean cleansing oils to the Deep Clean range of cleansers, that removes makeup and deep cleans with skin hydrating and brightening benefits. They are the Deep Clean Brightening Cleansing Oil and the Deep Clean Hydrating Cleansing Oil.

It is scientifically proven that the cleansing oils not only remove 100% makeup (even the most stubborn waterproof ones), it takes away 99% of dirt and impurities and nourish the skin while cleansing. The impressive thing about the new Deep Clean Cleansing Oil is that it accomplishes all these three tasks in one easy step.

These two new cleansing oils caters to the different needs of our skin.

For complexion that requires hydration, the Deep Clean Hydrating Cleansing Oil contains cucumber extract that helps to hydrate skin and keep it soft. The moisturising agent comes from the cucumber juice that naturally has high water content (>95%).

The Deep Clean Brightening Cleansing Oil contains mulberry extract, which contains Vitamin C and Vitamin B. Vitamin C, helps inhibit tyrosinase, a naturally occurring enzyme that catalyses production of pigment. Vitamin B is known to inhibit melanin transfer. Together, these help to reveal new skin cells and brighten the complexion.

So how do we use the cleansing oils? It is recommended to apply to dry face using dry hands.

Pump out the desired amount and massage the cleansing oil in circular motion gently on the skin. The skin will be shiny and watery. I love the smell of Deep Clean Brightening Cleansing Oil, kind of made me feel hungry for some fruits. Haha =D

Then add water to emulsify. As both cleansing oils are formulated with a non-comedogenic micro-emulsion, adding water will transform the cleansing oil into soft cleaning milk. Amazing~

Then wash away with lukewarm water, though I just used room temperature water.

My skin feels soft, moisturised, clean and looks brighter after cleansing.

The Deep Clean Hydrating Cleansing Oil quenches my dry skin's thirst by providing me the moisture after the deep cleansing routine.

The Deep Clean Brightening Cleansing Oil brightened up my dull complexion, giving me a radiant look, especially after a long day out.

The Deep Clean Cleansing Oils are dermatologist tested and they do not clog pores. That's great news for me, as I always get clogged pores resulting in bad acne. The cleansing oils are mineral-oil free that gives us cleaner skin while not washing away our skin's natural oils.


You can find the new Neutrogena Deep Clean Brightening Cleansing Oil ($29.90/200ml) and Neutrogena Deep Clean Hydrating Cleansing Oil ($29.90/200ml) at Guardian and Watsons from 18 June 2015.

Bioré UV AQUA Rich Watery Gel

Protecting our skin from the strong UV rays is a necessity, especially with all the skin problems like sun spots, wrinkles, freckles and aging skin. Sunscreen one of the things that we cannot leave the house without. Finding a good sunblock with high SPF and PA is important, getting one that suits your skin is just as important.

I'm sure everyone wish to get a daily high level sun protection that is not heavy, greasy and sticky and would love to apply a sunscreen that feels like water, weightless and cooling on our face and body for sun protection.

How about trying this weightless, maximum level of sun protection: Bioré UV AQUA Rich Watery Gel



The Bioré UV AQUA Rich Watery Gel came just in time for me to use on such a hot and sunny day, especially I will be out and about under the sun most of the time today.

The sunscreen feels so light and watery when applying. It is absorbs almost instantly. There is no trails of the white sunscreen, like what the other sunscreen usually does. The Bioré UV AQUA Rich Watery Gel gives off this light fresh fruity fragrance, that boosts my mood for the happy day even more.

Armed with my Bioré UV AQUA Rich Watery Gel, I have the maximum level of protection from the sun yet it feels like nothing on the skin, I'm all ready to head out for the busy day today. And for the future days ahead.

So, what is amazing sunscreen that gives such high level of sun protection while it feels so light that it is almost akin to having nothing applied on the skin? 

Bioré has launched the new Bioré UV Aqua Rich Watery Gel, in addition to the range of enhanced sunscreen products that offer a very high level of UV protection (SPF50+ and PA++++).

No more heavy and greasy sunscreens while getting a SPF50+ AND  PA++++ protection from the scary UV rays.

Formulated with Bioré’s unique Aqua Rich technology, that is used in the popular Aqua Rich Watery Essence, you can get a light and watery texture when applied onto skin. 

The UV block ingredients are contained within the Aqua Micro Capsule (a water capsule which breaks upon application) in an easy-to-spread gel format that provides SPF50+/PA++++ protection while keeping our skin cool and refreshed.

Most sunscreens that have a higher SPF value tends to have a heavier product texture, unlike Bioré’s Aqua Rich Watery series. Its lightweight feel and at the same time provide maximum UV protection is retained even when the SPF value is that high. The Aqua Rich Watery Gel is also infused with hyaluronic acid and citrus extract to keep skin hydrated and healthy.

Shark Sonic Steam Pocket Mop SM200

The hubby wanted to get a electronic steam mop, selling me all the benefits of owning one. And as a doting wife, I agreed (again) to let him buy what he feels is good. Haha..

We went around some electronic stores and saw that electronic steam mops are EXPENSIVE. From high end $300+ to over $500. They are way way over budget. Haha.. I was still thinking that we can get one a little over $100. Oopsie...

Then, I went online to search whether there are cheaper alternatives and we saw this Shark Sonic Steam Pocket Mop SM200 on sale at Qoo10 for $79.90 (plus $18 delivery fee). That's $97.90. Under my $100 budget. Cool. So we decided to get it.
http://list.qoo10.sg/item/SHARK-SONIC-STEAM-POCKET-MOP-STEAM/415169016?selectedOptions= (AHH.. They are selling it even cheaper now. $4.90 cheaper than what I bought)

Placed the order on the 27 April night and got the item on 4 May. Exactly one week, and it's delivered from Korea. Nice. Pretty fast delivery.

Item arrived. Tightly bubble wrapped.

All the parts that were inside the box

Ta dah~ We fixed it and it's time to test it out.

The hubby tried the mop on the day the item was delivered. Fixing was easy, although the user manual was in Korean, but we managed it by deciphering the diagrams.

Korean user manual

He said it's pretty easy to use after figuring out that to get the steam, the handle has to be pushed down. Happy hubby = happy wife ^^

Kiss You Ionic Toothbrush - $25/pc

Makes Your Teeth Repel Plaque Easily

KISS YOU Ionic Toothbrush is probably the most advanced toothbrush in the world.

The innovative ionic action of the toothbrush allows the teeth to let go of plaque easily like turning off a magnet. It is clinically proven to be more effective in cleaning the teeth than regular toothbrush. Daily usage of ionic toothbrush will make your teeth brighter with little or no plaque at all the next time you visit a dentist.

Wow, professional teeth whitening experience at the comfort of my home. This is good. I badly need this as I drink at least one cup of coffee a day. The dentist during my annual visit (by right we should visit the dentist every 6 months, but then I am only able to book a slot every year at the polyclinic) always advised me on drinking less coffee. But but how do I survive a day without coffee? haha
