Review of su:m37˚ Secret Essence and Sampling Day

Advertorial


Review of Su:m37˚ Secret Essence


A firm believer of the importance of facial essences & serums in my daily skincare routine, recently I have discovered a K-beauty brand that prides itself as the first in natural fermentation technology and incorporated a "secret" ingredient into its facial essence. 



For those who are not aware, su:m37˚ is a premium Korean skincare and cosmetics brand owned by LG Household and Healthcare. They are highly raved by skincare & makeup gurus on social media. And it is not hard to understand why...


su:m37˚ skincare products are created using traditional natural fermentation process without preservatives, artificial colours and fragrances. They take their brand so seriously that they built their very own Natural Fermentation Research Institute (NFRI), which is currently located in north-eastern part of South Korea - where all the magic happens! 

Fun Fact: 
Do you know why does the Korean beauty brand name ends "37˚?

The optimum temperature of fermentation is 37˚C. 

The essence that goes into every su:m37˚ product is derived from extracts of more than 80 types of herbs & plants that have been fermented in cedar barrels under 37 degrees celsius, for at least 365 days. These conditions have been proven to yield 16 times more beneficial probiotics than any artificially-driven process

My Current Top 10 Essences and Serums For Every Skin Condition

Sponsored


top 10 Essences and Serums For Every Skin Condition
Toners, essences and serums are an integral part of an effective daily skincare routine, whether or not you're into the Korean 10-step skincare routine. 

For those of us who don't have the luxury of time, amongst the three, try to not skip essences or serums before your moisturiser. Use at least 1! They are the ones which aid cell turnover and target skin concerns (regenerate, repair, firm, whiten and basically heal & provide us with the kind of effects we want for our skin). Your usual toner & moisturiser will not be sufficient if you want some changes to your current skin condition - they only maintain it.

Review of The Body Shop Drops Of Light Pure Healthy Brightening Eye Cream and Pure Healthy Brightening Serum

Following the success of the highly-raved Drops of Youth  range, The Body Shop introduces Drops of Light   skincare range for users looking for fairer & more radiant skin. This March, there has been a new addition of Pure Healthy Brightening Eye Cream to the Drops of Light  skincare line.

Review of The Body Shop Drops Of Light Pure Healthy Brightening Eye Cream and Pure Healthy Brightening Serum

Drops of Light™ Pure Healthy Brightening Range  has multi- functions to support healthy skin and is formulated to suit all skin types, even sensitive skin. Combining the natural goodness of Red Algae Extract harvested from the North Atlantic, plus the power of Vitamin C - one of the most potent skin antioxidants, this range of products targets sensitive skin that needs help in brightening and moisture. 

I tested out the Drops Of Light Pure Healthy Brightening Eye Cream and Pure Healthy Brightening Serum for a week and am now pleased to share my results.

I usually do not review skin care products which I tested on my skin for less than 2 weeks, simply because results don't show. But guess what, I was totally surprised by the results of  The Body Shop ™  this time round...

"Clear", "Bright", "Radiant" - these are some words that never fails to capture my attention. In my voracious quest for the best brightening skincare regime, I find myself always coming back to Japanese beauty brands.


Equitance™ is a luxury skincare brand founded in Japan 18 years ago. With a focus on inner & outer beauty, they have successfully combined both Eastern & Western research and practices to produce effective skincare products, especially in the department of brightening & radiance. We haven't heard of it in Singapore quite yet, but in both the U.S. and Japan, Equitancebagged home several awards & accolades and had been featured in the press for over the years. Its collagen drink alone broke 30 million in sales. 


To read more about the company’s history and product information, click HERE.

Sunstar Singapore recently launched Equitance in Singapore, and I was blessed with the opportunity to review their “First Ever in Japan – Effective Whitening Mechanism with Linoleic Acid” brightening skincare range. Happy to share the results on my skin, later in this post! Read on!


Besides linoleic acid, the entire outer skincare range also contains shell ginger extract and cherry blossom leaf extract.

Review of Bottega Verde La Mia Crema Singapore

Bogetta Verde, unlike Bottega Venetta, is relatively new in Singapore. Launched in 2015 in Singapore, this brand originates from my favourite country - Tuscany, to be exact, Bogetta Verde was founded in a country side area of Tuscany with the business of using only natural ingredients in their products.

I was invited to the launch of the bespoke cream  Bottega Verde La Mia Crema a month ago, and went through a skin analysis with their professional consultant before the boutique sends my details back to Bogetta Verde laboratory in Rome to customise my face cream. Was so pleased that I also get to select the scent I like!

It is the time of haze (thanks to our neighbouring country Indonesia's forest fires) for Singapore again.

Review of KLARITY™ Oxymud™ Cacao Cleanse and Renewal Mask and Diamond Glow™ Overnight Masque

Review of KLARITY™ Oxymud™ Cacao Cleanse and Renewal Mask and Diamond Glow™ Overnight Masque
Summer is the season when many skin problems surfaced - I was not spared from this either. Been having a lot of trouble with my facial complexion these days, yet was too busy to go for a professional deep cleansing facial at the salon.

Thanks to Klarity who came to my rescue!

When Klarity is mentioned, the first thought that comes to mind has got to be their best-selling Lasertox™ CC Miracle White Lotion that gained so much popularity within months of launch! I personally loved it heaps, since its first launch on 2014.


Review of KLARITY™ Oxymud™ Cacao Cleanse and Renewal Mask and Diamond Glow™ Overnight Masque
In case you have not tried this before... this is a miracle lotion, no kidding!
A quick background of Klarity - founded in Singapore, it is the first Halal-certified functional skin care in Singapore. Their brand philosophy is to provide functional skin care solutions with no down time, non-invasive and skin friendly ingredients - no paraben! Klarity products are formulated in Singapore, with technology from France and made in Korea, thus quality can be assured.

Recently, Klarity launched their new masking products! (And these products could well be a great home alternative to a salon facial!)

Eliminating Stress with Spa Ceylon De-Stress Home Spa range

Spa Ceylon De-Stress Home Spa range review
"I am so stressed!" I am sure everyone has said that at some point in time, or have heard of people around you saying that. In a fast-paced society like Singapore, stress is inevitable. But stress is also the causal factor for a lot of illnesses.

How do you beat stress? For me, there are a few tested-and-proven methods to combat the stresses of life. First is to exercise, second is to chill out over a good cuppa with good company/good friends, and lastly go for massage and enjoy some good ol' aromatherapy.

Recently I have been invited to the Healing Touch at Tanglin Shopping Centre for a massage therapy session - a collaboration with Spa Ceylon De-Stress range. That night I could sleep like a baby after losing sleep for many days...all thanks to the masseuse,  Anne's magic touch.

I also brought the spa back home!

Or so I wished.

Review of Orbis Skincare Singapore
Review of Orbis Skincare Singapore

If you have been following my Instagram page, you'd have been informed of the opening specials of Orbis at their newest boutique, located at Takashimaya Shopping Centre. 

For those who are new to Orbis, this is a Japanese beauty brand that is eco-friendly, simple, effective and advocates a holistic approach to beauty & wellness. It is also the first to create 100% oil-free skincare products, based on their fundamental belief that by cutting out oil, skin can release its vital power. Sounds like god-send to oily/combination skin? I would think so.


Singapore beauty bloggers
I was at the opening of the new store at Takashimaya last month, and was so happy to bag home some skincare and makeup loots.

Review of Yves Rocher Sérum Végétal Wrinkles and Firmness + Thoughts on Elixir 7.9 Face Serum and Eye serum

Sponsored

 

Following my recent shopping haul from Yves Rocher Singapore, I have been most excited to try out and to review this Sérum Végétal Wrinkles & Firmness Botanical Resurfacing Care. If you are still not very familiar about the brand, I have written about it before HERE

Sérum Végétal Wrinkles & Firmness Botanical Resurfacing Care is actually an non-rinse exfoliant. Means no unnecessary harsh scrubs or extended duration of rubbing on your face. Just apply and go to bed - I think that alone is a major brownie point!
