The Ordinary

Currently I've been eyeing on this brand. Yes The Ordinary...

It is super cheap skincare brand and received quite alot great reviews from the user. And today I've made my quick purchase  from Asos . The reason why I chosed Asos because the shipping rate is cheaper and free shipping for 20Pounds, And when I converted it is quite cheaper compared to USD. 

So, I count on these 3 products and let's hope it works! (currently I am using the Mandelic Acid from Dr. Wu )...

Estimated delivery on 26 April 2017

Updated Morning Skincare routine. (2016)

Lama tak update pasal skincare routine. Sebenarnya,  I dah try a lot of brand but too bad  I bukan jenis loyal to only one skincare je. Dari yang mahal sampai lah yang brand local but then i switch back to non-local skincare because I tak nak merosakkan kulit muka and kulit muka merah2 mcm makcik2 tu (ishhh scary).

One thing i learn, we have  to splurge abit on skincare compared to makeup. Terutamanya serum and moisturiser.



So let's take a look at my updated morning skincare routine for 2016.



1. Selalunya pagi-pagi i will use cetaphil cleanser. Ikut pada mood haritu. I dont really like to use harsh cleanser pagi-pagi so selalunya I would go for the mild one macam ni.

2. Then I proceed dengan toner.  I use Kiehl's Clarity-Activating toner / Bliss daily detoxifying facial toner. (alternately)

I love both of these toner. Bau dia best and it works on my skin.

3. Then, I will proceed with essence.I love this Kiehl's Iris Extract Activatiing Treatment Essence . Lagi kalau pakai under makeup/foundation kulit memang rasa cukup hidration. So makeup pun ok je tak crack or patcy.

4. Then I will use the eye serum and eye cream. I love Dior Capture Totale Eyes Essential eyezone boosting super serum and Origins Ginzing Refreshing eye cream. Serious best.


5. Then I will use my moisturiser. I guna Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Protective Emulsion . Bau dia best and lepas massage on skin boleh nampak kulit a lil bit brighter macam tula.huhu.. This lotion pun contain spf.

6. Kalau hari tu panas gila, I will use Dior One Essential City Defense Pollution & UV Shield Advanced Protection SPF 50 PA+++++ . I suka sebab sunblock ni konon-kononnya bukan je menentang UV tapi juga menentang pollution jugak.

Overal itula my skincare routine sampai November 2016. I am actually started to use other brand lepas ni ok :)

Till then!

Review : Kiehl's Iris Extract Activiting Treatment Essence

Finally I've got a chance to make a quick review about this Kiehl's Extract Activiting Treatment Essence. 



This essence comes with a twist open cap to reveal a small rift opening that dispenses the treatment essence. This essence reminded me about the SKII essence but the SKII essence is quite lighter in texture and easily to absorb compared to this essence. I think this essence is quice similar to Estee Lauder Micro Essence. It has thicker than water consistency but absorbed into the skin leaving no residue which is great.

I love the light scent from this essence compared to SKII essence ( which smell abit meh for me )


Anyway, according to Kiehls this essence ;

Reactivates Skin’s Youthful Look for Smoother, Radiant Skin Unique, velvety liquid concentrate delivers anti-aging and hydrating ingredients to skin’s surface layers With Iris Florentina Root Extract, known for its deeply nourishing and anti-aging benefits to skin With Lipo Hydroxy Acid (LHA) to activate skin’s natural exfoliation process and Sodium Hyaluronate to replenish skin and smooth fine lines Visibly improves the appearance of fine lines, dullness, and rough texture over time Your essential “first step” anti-aging treatment to maintain skin’s youthful texture, reduce fine lines, and activate radiance


How I use it ?

After cleansing and toning, I use a few drops of this treatment essence into my palms, spread them together and gently press all over my face and neck. You can pat until it is all absorbed otherwise just let it soak into the skin then apply the usual serum and moisturiser.



Overall ( the verdict) ; Been using for more than 4 weeks.

I love this essence. It makes my skin feel hydrates, soft and maybe a lil bit brighter ( I dont know because I also use other product for brightening)


Price : RM188 ( 200ml)
