Annette's WONDERFUL Playground

Today, I'm going to review on one of my beauty hauls from Japan, the Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV. (Mr WONDERFUL got them for me during his last business trip.) About the Product Splash! Feel as fresh as a mermaid princess. Benefits: SPF 50+/PA+++ Smooth gel texture, light & refreshing It is a base, a moisturizing lotion and also a sun screen Suitable for face & body My Reviews: The gel texture is very lightweight on my skin. Applies easily and absorbed into the skin easily. Very cooling texture and refreshes the skin. Not oily or sticky, doesn't clog pores. Good for lazy girls as it is works as a moisturizer, make up base and sun screen all in one. SPF 50+/PA+++ is a plus point. My make up last longer when I apply this before make up, after my moisturizer. Can be applied on both face & body. Cheap when you get it from Japan, less than SGD$10. Currently, this is my fav...

Got this at the Orbis Pop Up Store at Orchard Ion last month. Collagen the Beauty is an intensive skincare supplement formulated with 6000 mg of Collagen Peptide, Vitamin C, Elastin Peptide, Ceramide, Rooibos Tea Extract, Coenzyme Q10 and Royal Jelly Extract. Collagen helps improve moisture holding ability and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Vitamin C is essential in production and retention of collagen. Recommended Intake: 1 bottle a day, preferably before bedtime. Chill and shake lightly before drinking. 1 box contains 10 bottles of 50ml each. What I like about this? Most collagen drinks contains collagen extract from marine fishes, thus, the drink is always very sour to cover up the fishy taste. Orbis collagen drink contains collagen extract from pork (Sorry, not suitable for our Malay friends). Taste? Very refreshing when drank chilled. The sweet and sour taste balances up very well. Taste of grape...
