Ampoules Review

First "flavour" tryout - EDs Whitening Ampoules (WA)


"For normal to dry skin. Not suitable for oily skin. Intensive revitalization. Skin brightening. Contains combination of vitamins & vitamin derivatives which are able to suppress the formation of melanin."

Before i start yakking, I'm using Vichy Purifying Cleansing Gel and Clinique Clarifying Lotion (I know I'm a lazybum who doesn't wanna keep typing out the same sentence)

App 1 - Cleanse → Tone → WA

Following what Brenda advised, i poured 1/4 of the vial and massage my face thoroughly. The serum looked deep yellow in the vial but when poured out it looked colourless to me. It is super super thick in my personal opinion (had to dap dap onto my palm cause it doesn't flow out of the vial) but upon application it feels very light, and icy. It is odourless and non-greasy. Absorbs pretty fast, leaving me with a smooth and refreshed face.

Following morning - Skin remains non-greasy. No visible results on any lightening of acne scars but face seems fairer than usual. But then again, my face always look fairer and more supple when i just wake up. No idea why. Anyway, i don't know if its my own imgination or am i thinking too much but 1 of my super red flattened zit seems to be less reddish looking ^.^

And cause there is no obvious visible results, and i'm one who has totally no patience to keep using a certain product and waiting for results to surface only after some time, i've decided to do what i do best - Mix & Match. I opened another "flavour" to play with.

Second "flavour" tryout - Sensual Purifying Ampoules (SPA)


"For acne prone skins. Regulates excessive sebaceous section, antiseptic effect on acne and pimple skin."

App 2 - Cleanse → Tone → WA (Full face) → SPA (On zits only)

Same routine with the same amount used. But this time, after the Whitening Ampoules had been fully absorbed, i dapped a wee bit of SPA onto my flattened yet extremely red zit.

SPA, similar to WA are odourless, and slightly more watery as compared. Seems a little heavy for my skin despite being more "diluted" as the zit looked "oily" for sometime before the serum is fully absorbed. Vial is recappable unlike the other 2 series (Phytoderm & EDs) where i had to cover up the opening with a tissue/cotton pad and use a rubberband to seal it up.

Later in the noon - Face seems to grease up faster than usual (Especially on the spots i've dapped SPA) But the lucky thing is, complexion doesn't look the least bit oily or dull. My skin tends to look duller/darker by mid-day, even without makeup (If you know me well enough you would know that i don't put on makeup) Ok, back to the oily feeling, i could actually feel a film of oil on the face when i run my fingers over despite looking non-oily.

App 3 - Cleanse → Tone → SPA (Full face) → Hazeline Snow Cream (On scars only)

If you don't know what's Hazeline Snow Cream,

It's that very old school cream that most Grannies are using Haha !

Point to note, the SPA were absorbed quickier when massaged on than when dapped on with a cotton bud.

Following morning - Pores on the T-Zone and cheeks seems visibly larger (OH NO!!) But ironic this may sound, the enlarged pores "closed up" after i cleansed my face. AND AND, THE PIMPLES DRIED UP :D Anyways, acne scars are significantly lighter (Hazeline ftw!!)

App 4 - Cleanse → Tone → WA (Full face) → Sunplay Sunscreen Lotion

Later in the noon - Face seems to grease up slower than the day before. I'm really confused now. A moment it oils up faster, a moment it oils up slower. I guess i'll really need to use the WA for a few more days to monitor the condition.

Read reviews and all that it takes 2 weeks of WA application to have visible results. Oh wells !!

Should i flea ??

THE AMPOULES ARE READY !! ♥♥

Because the kiasi me refused to collect via postage, fearing that the postman might break my ampoules. Because Sarah (the spree organiser) stays in Jurong West and i stay at the other side of Singapore. Because just nice Bren's boy stays in Jurong and she is picking up her ampoules too. I conviniently "tompang" her boyfriend to help me collect mine as well :D

I ordered 2 vials of Phytoderm Purifying, 3 vials of EDS Purifying, 3 vials of Sensual Purifying, and 2 vials of EDS Whitening. My initial intention was to use the Purifying ones to treat my breakout but now that most of the zits are drying up and no fresh ones are popping *touchwood* i shall start off with the Whitening ones, and keeping the acne treatments for "rainy days". But i read somewhere that Whitening Amps broke certain skins out. Shurgs. I'll try them out when i've collected them from Brenda, and do a review soon ya ?? Hope I'm not allergic to any of the "flavours" though.

Blondie spotted !!

Saturday, August 22, 2009


Blondie alert :D

Anyway, was suppose to meet up with Yv today to check out MissFayne's manufactured label - Elegance (Dresses for work and functions) but cause her doggie's down with some allergies, i went ahead without her. Tried on my cut-out dress, to see if i needed to make any changes but to my surprise, it was awesome.

I must say, Yv's really superb !! Was really busy when i started work few weeks ago and had no time to discuss with her face to face with regards to what i wanted to manufacture. All i did was to send her a rough sketch and discussed a lil via the phone during my toilet break (haha!) and viola ~~ The dress is exactly what i had in mind and the cutting is oh-so-purrfect !! Pretty !! Can't wait for them to arrive (: Stay tuned to my blog for pre-launch photos :D

Totally to die for(s)





But on second thought, i do not have enough cash. Haha !!

Bring me outta my misery

Thursday, August 20, 2009

Apologies for my mini disapperance from the blog-o-sphere. I was having the most down period of my life - i had my first pimple outbreak in 21 years. All i wanted to do is just stay home and sleep my days away. The fat red bumps are awfully disgusting. I feel sick when i look at myself in the mirror. And to add on to my misery, the 100 spotlights in Armani Junior is giving me free tanning sessions everyday. So much so that even sunblock doesn't really work anymore ): I even thought of calling in sick for work, but for the sake of my extremely nice manager, i've decided to head for work with my pimply face.

You may think that i'm being totally ridiculous but hey ! For all my life, i've never ever had more than 1 zit on the face at a time before so these 10-20 zits are really freaking me out. And the number just keeps increasing by day. Totally depressing.

Looking back the past 2 weeks or so, i blew hundreds away at our local drugstores. I could have spent them on a Derma and get better and faster results. I would love to visit a Derma but given my deadly work schedule, i didn't have much time to. All the time i had, was to google or read up on forums when i get home and then hit the drugstore the next day after work and grab every single pimple gels/creams/whatnots that was raved/ available on the racks. Yes, i am that desperate to zap those zits away.

The zits kinda flattened up a little already and there's no more fresh pimples popping out *touchwood* Now i'm just gonna focus on getting it all flattened and reduce the redness. And and, to remove the ugly tans.

Thanks to everyone who replied to my post on the various forums - for recommending me every single product that worked for them.

And to my tutee's mom - for giving me 2 tubes of Chlortetracyline Hydrochloride Ointment which saves her face from acne scars.

And and, flying kisses to Brenda - for introducing me to Sarah the ampoule queen. Though i haven't started using but i forsee a pretty pretty complexion after using them haha ! Just look at how pretty Brenda is :D

Ironic this may sound, but i've used way too many products on my face that i really don't know which one did worked best. So here's a mini review which i don't think is very accurate since i mix and match.


Oxy10 - Used to work very well and dries my pimple overnight but i've got no idea why it doesn't work on me this time round.


Oxy5 - Doesn't dry up the pimple overnight like Oxy10 does but instead forces pus/whiteheads to the surface for easy squeezing.


T3 Pimple Gel Plus - No visible results after continuous usage for 2 days.


Acnes Medicated Sealing Jell - Slight visible results on flattening the bigger bumps. No visible results on the small ones.

Chlortetracycline Hydrochloride Ointment mixed with Acnes Medicated Sealing Jell - Flattens up my bumps at a much faster rate but kinda stopped when the bump reduces in size.

Seriously, I don't know if its the combination of the gels or what that work but i shall stick to my Chlortetracycline Hydrochloride Ointment + Acnes Medicated Sealing Jell paste at the moment. Haha :D

When acne-prone gets accident-prone

Friday, August 14, 2009

It was merely few hours into work today, and i injured myself twice (Yes you heard it right, TWICE) Washed the cleaning cloth, clipped it onto the hanger, and wanted to hang the hanger on the rack. And because there was limited space for me to move about, and i have very fat thunderous, my thigh press onto that red trigger and the water flowed all the way from my thigh, and down to my feet. Fyi, that's hot boiling water !!



Then after settling my red burning wound, i continued with my quest of cleaning the storeroom - sweep the floor. And after i am done, i attached the broom back together with the dustpan and clipped the flesh between my thumb and index finger.



Seriously, did i like stepped on dog poo in the morning ? So unlucky !

But i'm glad, my misfortunes stopped just right there haha !

Anyway, was just facebooking and randomly surfing blogs when i saw this really sweet proposal setup. Check this out. I'm totally awestruck. Such fairytales will never happen to me, haha !

Foul mood

Thursday, August 6, 2009

In an incredibly foul mood right now.

Economics & Management

or

Banking & Finance

or

Accounting & Finance



And so, i've settled for Economics & Management, with Principles of Sociology, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and Management Science Methods. But the goondoo me actually choose MSM on Monday 830am when there is an another MSN on Monday 12pm. Fyi, i have another lesson on Monday at 330pm-630pm. So what am i gonna do during that very long break in between !?!?!?! And because i've clicked on confirmed, i'm unable to make any changes.

Please people, pray for me that the school could push my MSM down to 12pm and not reset and ask me to reselect. Cause my gut feeling tells me that if they reset, i am unable to select Mark's Wednesday morning lesson. Please grant me all the luck in the world. Please.

Edit - I'm your lucky little bitch :D Everything is settled (:

The results are out

EXAMINATION RESULTS

ARE OUT !!


poa 42. econs 42. business & managment 40. maths 53. stats 56.

According to my post-examination-entry sometime back, i said i just wanted to pass. And, i got what i wanted. And that is to pass everything. People say you reap what you sow. But i think otherwise. All the effort i've put into Econs and Business & Management did not pay off at all. Sometimes i feel that God is really unfair.

ps, passing mark is 34, not 50 (:
