Beauty Loots: Canmake Japan & Kanebo Japan

Mr WONDERFUL just returned from a Japan trip with his boss few days ago and of course, I had asked him to help me get some make-up items from Japan.

So glad that he bought extras, will last for a few months for me...

Let's see what's in my beauty loots:

1. Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV 700 Yen

This little tube works like a skincare lotion, sunscreen and make up base. Great for days when I'm feeling lazy.

2. Canmake Perfect Serum BB Cream 800 Yen

Shades available:

01 Light - With a brighter finish

02 Natural - Blends into the skin easily without looking powdery

As my skin tone is fair, both shades are ok for me. This is a beauty lotion, beauty serum and face pack, all-in-one.

Contains 21 types of beautifying and moisturizing ingredients such as Hyaluronic acid, collagen, ceramides, royal jelly extract, witch-hazel extract, arbutin, Job's tears extract, aloe vera extract, soybean extract, gingko extract, hydrolyzed silk and more.

It is also a high-protection SPF50 PA+++ sunscreen to provides thorough protection from ultraviolet rays for your skin.

3. Canmake Perfect Serum BB Cream Light 800 Yen

Shades available:

01 Light - With a brighter finish

02 Natural - Blends into the skin easily without looking powdery

This is a lighter version of the above. Contains the same beautifying and moisturizing ingredients, this bb cream gives a very natural coverage with a barely there feeling.

4. Canmake Gokunobi Mascara 600 Yen

Love this mascara as it is waterproof, yet easily removed with warm water. Helps to lengthen lashes with its fibers ans stretchy liquid formula.

5. Canmake Quick Easy Eyeliner 500 Yen

Slim felt-tip eyeliner that is lasting. It's super easy to draw with this, great for beginers.

6. Kanebo Suisai Beauty Clear Powder 3000 Yen (32nos X 2)

This is like a top seller product in most of the drugstores in Japan. I have lots of blackheads on my nose and this powder helps to clean deep into the pores and prevent blackheads. My first time using it, so hopefully it helps to reduct my blackheads. The packaging is travel friendly too.

They are super cheap buying them off shelves from the drugstores in Japan. Too bad that I couldn't tag along as I was pregnant and this was actually a business trip. Haha!!! Looking forward to my Japan trip next year...

XOXO,

Annette

Eat And Drink: Christmas with Starbucks & Final Giveaway for 2015

Have you tried the Christmas beverages from Starbucks? 美味しいです。。(Delicious in Japanese) This year Starbucks return with 3 returning favorites and a new creation, in both hot latte and frappuccino options. Latte Version Photo credits: Starbucks Singapore New Creation: Christmas Panettone Latte Returning Favorite: Peppermint Mocha Latte (Recommended) Gingerbread Latte Toffee Nut Latte Frappuccino Version Photo Credits: Starbucks Singapore New Creation: Christmas Panettone Returning Favorite: Peppermint Mocha (Recommended) Gingerbread Toffee Nut I've tried all the hot & cold flavors and I preferred the usual Peppermint Mocha in both hot & cold options. As for the new creation, Christmas Panettone, it doesn't give me any surprises at all. I think the dried fruits sprinkle doesn't do justice to the drink too. Another item that I highly recommend is the Chocolate ...

Reviews: Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel

I've never been a fan of peeling gel. I've tried a few brands before, but somehow, I don't think that it works. It's not that it doesn't clear the dead skin, but rather, I can use the peeling gel continuously 3 times on the same place and still, there are lots of dead skin. So it's either the peeling gel doesn't work or I've got too much dead skin.... I got this sample months back when I shopped at the Pop-Up store at Ion. I tot I should try this out since I've been enjoying some of their products. It's a clear gel, turns watery upon application. I like the fact that the dead skins clumps together instead of the usual when they will drop everywhere in the bathroom. I did a second 'test' right after the first usage on the same area. Guess what? Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel is really up to my expectations.... The first application had removed quite a bit of the dead skin on my hands, and during th...
