Himalya Neem Face Wash

Himalya
Neem Face Wash
Clears skin, prevents outbreaks
Soap-free Cleanser

Price: $6.80 (Swanston)





Pros: Helps to reduce pimple size, inexpensive, not drying
Cons: Difficult to lather

The Neem Face wash is a gel cleanser which is transparent green, as seen in the pictures. I bought the smaller version at Watsons just to give it a try.

On the first use, the size of pimples is reduced about 25%.. so just a few more usage, the pimple will be gone. Skin doesn't feel tight or dry after using.

It has a very natural, "anti-bacterial" scent. however, as it is a gel cleanser, it is difficult to make it into a lather.

This is not my daily cleanser, but I will use it when I have outbreaks. My pimples will be gone sooner, before I lost my patience and squeeze them out. It is a must have in my skincare collection. =)

Bio-Essence Bird's Nest Nutri-Collagen & Whitening Products

Bio-Essence
Bird's Nest

This series of products was recommended to me by a Swanston staff when I told her that I am looking for something that helps to reduce pore size. She told me that products that are moisturizing, but not oily will help - Bio-Essence Bird's Nest products.


Nutri-Collagen & Whitening Advancer

 Price : $19.80

This product is used in place of a toner. I will squeeze some on my left palm and apply bit by bit to my face using my right hand. After applying, my skin doesn't feel tight or dry at all (unlike most toners). My skin feels soft and hydrated though it is only the first step after cleansing.

The packaging is attractive but as it is in a tall bottle, with pump, it is difficult to get the last bit of the content out from the bottle. This product is one of my favourites so far.


Nutri-Collagen & Whitening Essence


Price: $23.80

 














 The white cream-like content is light and not oily at all!! After application, skin feels soft and tender. 


Nutri-Collagen & Whitening Cream


Price: $23.90

 

This moisturizer is a non-greasy creamy gel. To me, this is the best product among this series as it doesn't cause pimples. Unlike most moisturizers which make my skin shine immediately and makes my pores more visible after application, this product moisturizes sufficiently yet not too oily for my combination skin. 


Overall:  I think this series of products is very suitable for me, thanks to the Swanston staff... After using these three products, my pores doesn't look so obvious. My skin is also more supple and moisturized. Although I did not buy this product because of its whitening ability, I think it does help to brighten up my skin slightly after using it for nearly 2 months. These products might be slightly more expensive than other drugstore brands, but it is definitely worth buying.

Biore Pore & T-zone care

Deeply Cleanses

Price: $2.80 (Swanston)

 

Pros: Cheap, able to remove whiteheads, fragrant
Cons: To strong, big microbes

I like the fragrant of this scrub. It is effective in removing whiteheads around the mouth (which I always have).

However, I don't really like this product as it leaves my skin tight and squeaky after wash... too drying.

I will not purchase this product again. Perhaps, this product is more suitable for people who likes the "squeaky clean" feeling.

Dove Straight & Silky Shampoo & Conditioner

Dove
Damage therapy
Straight & Silky

Shampoo

Price:
- Currently $7.40 at Swanston
- $11.80 at Watsons


Pros: Fragrant, Effective
Cons: None

This is one of my favourite shampoo as its fragrance stays longer after bath.. compared to clear shampoo.

It helps to lessen flyaway hair, makes it silkier and more manageable.

I will recommend and repurchase this product as it is worth buying.



Conditioner

Price:
- currently $7.40 at Swanston
- $12 at Watsons
Pros: Effective
Cons: Smell of chemical

To me, this conditioner is just like other conditioners (softens and smoothens hair)

It has a smell of chemical, but acceptable.

Overall: I will repurchase the shampoo and conditioner as it helps to reduce frizz and makes my hair more manageable.
