Senka Mineral Essence UV review

Do you know what is the one 'thing' that I must do before stepping out of house? Apply BB cream? Eye makeup? foundation? concealer? Not all these. It is to apply my sunblock =D Regardless of distance and amount of time that I will be spending outside, even just to buy a takeaway nearby, I will still apply sunblock minimum SPF30. Especially in Singapore, all year summer, UV rays from the sun is one of the main causes of skin ageing and damage. That's why we need to apply sunblock no matter where we are, in order to protect our skin from harmful UV rays but remember to remove thoroughly before going to bed =)

Today I will sharing with you my review after using Senka Mineral Essence UV 50g (Made in Japan)
My questions:
What is Senka mineral essence UV made up of?
How does it help to protect our skin from UV rays?
Except for UV protection, what are the other benefits?

Senka Mineral Essence UV, made with Mineral Water, offers a strong UR ray protection, a dewy fresh texture as well as anti-aging care.

-SPF 50+/PA++++ Thoroughly blocks strong UV rays.
It has strong UV ray protection against the UV B rays that affect the skin's surface, and thoroughly protects against UV A rays that penetrate deep into the skin and causes it to lose elasticity. Prevents dark spots and freckles caused by sun exposure.

-Q10 + Hyaluronic Acid Anti-aging care
Contains dewy fresh moisturising and skin care ingredients like Coenzyme Q10 and Hyaluronic Acid to keep skin looking youthful, resilient and firm.

-100% Mineral water Gentle feel Silky-smooth finish
Made with 100% mineral water, it is non-greasy and spreads on smoothly like an essence, leaving a silky-smooth finish with no white residue

Senka mineral essence UV can be used for face and body
  • Fragrance free
  • No artificial colours
  • No mineral oil
  • Dermatologist tested
Directions: Take a appropriate amount onto fingertips and blend directly onto the face and neck after your daily beauty routine. For  body application, apply directly onto skin in a line, then blend in evenly in a circular motion. It is important to apply sufficient amount to ensure effective UV protection. Reapply as and when needed after perspiring or wiping off with a towel.

As I mentioned earlier, I apply sunblock everyday and reapply especially when I am outdoor all day so its features are very important to me. I am glad that I have chosen Senka mineral essence UV to be part of my morning skincare regime, I love the cooling sensation, it spreads easily over my entire face and neck. It forms a non-sticky protective veil over my skin to prevent sun damage while skin feeling moisturized at the same time^_^ I just have to put my usual finish powder, it gives my skin a natural fresh look all day=D With Senka mineral essence UV around, I am ready to enjoy my outdoor activities longer!
Currently I am using it everyday and I bring it along with me wherever I go. I will strongly recommend you to use sunblock everyday and try out Senka mineral essence UV.  You will enjoy using it just like I do =)
Stay Summerproof with Senka! I made a smart choice, how about you? ^_^

Pantene BB creme for hair review

Have you heard BB crème for hair?? This is my first time hear about Pantene BB crème for hair as I have countless BB cream for face but definitely not for hair. I have received this Pantene BB crème (135 ml)  via post and today I am going to share with you my experience after using it.

Hair is one of the most precious 'thing' to everyone not only women. Men also take good care of their hair too. As we can see there are countless of hair care products (shampoo, conditioner, wash-off treatment, hair serum, leave on treatment) at Watson, guardian and various super markets etc. Hair growth centres , hair salons......
Going to hair salon/ hair centres usually requires you to make time and effort to go down to their shops and spend around 1-2 hours there. So personally I think daily 'home care' which means skin, hair, health care at home is very important to me. ^_^

So what is Pantene BB crème for hair? It is a 10-in-1, all-in-one perfector leave on treatment that gives your hair 10 hair health benefits.

Pantene BB crème for hair helps prevent split ends, strengthen against breakage, smoothes , moisturized feel, shine, manageable, detangling frizz control, heat protection, softness.
Direction : (1) On damp hair, dispense 1-2 pumps onto palm, rub hands together and apply starting at the ends and working towards the middle of your hair. Use more as needed. Do not rinse. Continue with your regular hair care and styling routine.
(2) On dry hair: use an additional pump to polish styled hair
I washes my hair everyday when I am back home from work/ outdoor activities to keep my hair and scalp clean and fresh before I go to bed. Daily hair wash and hair blow can cause hair dryness, split ends and tangles without a proper hair care routine.

This is the amount in just 1 pump of Pantene BB crème. Its sufficient for me as I only apply it till the middle my hair. I rubbed my hands together to evenly spread and warm it before touching my hair.
I combed my hair with fingertips working from ends to middle of my hair. Gently massage Pantene BB crème evenly to my hair and leave it for about 2 mins for better absorption before I start my hair blow.
During my 10-15 mins hair blow with hand comb my hair, I realized my hair is soften and untangles easily than before I started to use Pantene BB crème. ^_^ Now my hair blow is a wonderful experience! I still remembered I used to spent quite some time to untangle and hair feels hard & stiff in the past.
 
Pantene BB creme for hair is deservedly one of the best and a 'must-have' hair SOS in my hairdressing table. It softens and calms my rebellious hair upon application after wash. What's more, unlike other hair care products, it does not leave sticky feel on both hair and hands ^_^ It make my hair look like its done in hair salon by a pro! My hair is neat and I look presentable and confident =)

Visits to hair salon/ hair centres are time-consuming and expensive for me, I would recommend to try Pantene BB crème if you do have dry, tangled hair like me each time after you wash your hair. It is truly a great helper to untangles and protect your hair against damages caused by hair dryer, leaving it soft and manageable.

SKINC - Pure Revival Peel review

Recently I have spotted this amazing Pure Revival Peel (20 ml) from SKIN INC and would like to share with you my experience after using it.

SKIN INC is a japan skincare brand, one of its signature product is the Pure Revival Peel - a revolutionary non-abrasive peel that visibly but gently removes dullness and dead skin cells. Preps skin to maximize absorption of nutrients from your daily skincare products and acts like a dynamic primer to create the perfect canvas for your makeup. Combines high-performance ingredients AC-11, Arbutin and Fullerene to revive your skin's youthful vitality.

'Your skin deserves the best of the best, anywhere, anytime'

Skin Inc Pure Revival Peel 20ml
How to use it?
Use dry hands to apply a thin layer of Pure Revival Peel to clean, dry skin. Leave on for a few seconds until it turns milky, then gently massage in circular motion. Dead keratin will be formed into particles, showing the exfoliating effect. Rinse off with warm water. Use 2-3 times a week.

I applied a thick layer of SKINC - Pure Revival Peel especially the T-zone area nose and forehead whereby there should be a lot of dead skin as CNY just a few days ago, usually we will apply makeup like foundation and powder all over our face. I need a mild and effective skin exfoliator that can help to remove those dead skin, unclog pores and gentle to my delicate skin ^_^
I have well-covered my dry face and neck (do not forget about the neck area!) with SKINC - Pure Revival Peel. After about 1 min, the peel turns a little milky and watery.
I gently massage my skin with circular motion, white little particles gradually formed all over my face especially the nose area as its the place where most dirt and impurities are accumulated.

My review:
Its important and the first step is to clean and exfoliate our skin in order to prep it for better absorption of subsequent skincare. This light, colourless, non-irritating and odourless gel exfoliate my skin effectively, gently slough off dead skin cells as I can see from the white particles formed. SKINC - Pure Revival Peel contains AC-11 that activates formation of new outer layers of the skin, bringing fresh cells (which contains contain higher levels of skin’s natural moisturizing factor (NMF)) to the surface and shedding old dull rough cells. AC-11 is also a potent enhancer of DNA repair, helping the skin recover from damage and stress.
After washing off with lukewarm water, my skin feels clean, fresh and supple as though I have a 'new skin'! and I also noticed that my next skincare step gets absorbed faster.
