[Review] Calendula Deep Cleansing Foaming Face Wash Review


Product : Calendula Deep Cleansing Foaming Face Wash
Brand : Kiehl's
Price : RM120
Quantity : 230 ml
Availability: Kiehl's stores nation wide & online

What it claims
  • Gently lifts away impurities, dirt, and oil without stripping skin, safe for sensitive skin
  • Creamy gel formula activates with water to create a rich foam
  • Skin looks instantly refreshed and revitalized
  • Soap Free, Paraben Free
  • Designed for normal to oily skin types

My thoughts 
  • It doesn't irritate my skin
  • It feels gentle on the skin
  • Love the packaging, it has a pump on it and it can easily lock the pump to avoid spill while travelling with it.  
  • Accually I hate gel formula cleanser bucause it tends to dry out my skin, but this kiehl's cleanser is exceptional. 

Conclusion

I used to love it and I still do, after giving birth 5 months ago, my skin gets dry. I don't use it for everyday now, I only use it once or twice a week especially when I wore full face make up. After I remove my make up using a make-up remover of my choice (either wipes, micellar water, or oil based makeup remover) I would use this and I find that this is the only cleanser that can make my skin feels squeaky clean.

My husband likes it very much, he use it since we got married until now. EVERY-SINGLE-DAY
His skin used to be very oily on the T-zone (nose & forehead) and really dry on the mouth and chin area. His skin got better ever since he use this cleanser. No more dry patches around the mouth area and his forehead & nose is less oily now.

[Review] Laneige Water Sleeping Mask


Product : Laneige Water Sleeping Mask
Brand : Laneige
Price : RM90 - RM120 ( I got mine from Sephora, can remember the actual price since I Bought it last year)
Quantity: 70 ml
Availability : Hermo, Sephora, Laneige store, other online store that sells Korean beauty product.


What it claims

Laneige’s unique Moisture-wrap™ technology uses effective ingredients of hydro ion mineral water contained in a biopolymer mineral network, evening primrose extract, and apricot extract to increase the skin’s absorption and sustaining capabilities while you sleep.

Intensive moisture sleeping mask makes skin look clear, bright, and revitalized in the morning with the purification function of Sleep-tox ™ as if having had a good night’s sleep

My thoughts 
  • Lightweight & absorbs fast into the skin
  • My skin feels refresh & moisturize immediately after application 
  • But I can't feel my skin hydrated enough in the morning 
  • Not sure about the plumping & brightening effect because my skin looks the same & feels the same

Conclusion

There are better sleeping mask out there.  It is just one of the overrated product because it ain't give much hydration to the skin. Honestly I enjoy using it as a light-weight moisturizer as it feels cool & fresh on the skin once I applied it. I even think Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream is richer than this mask. 1 thing that I like about it, it does not feels tacky on the skin. Overall, I may or not buying it again.
Kalau you pernah pakai any high-end sleeping mask, you akan rasa mask ni so-so je. If you are beginner, you might like it. Overall it is just an okay product for me definitely not WOW.

But some swears by this. Maybe diorang punya skin type normal kot. For people like me, I have combination skin type, I rasa biasa-biasa je.

I made a huge mistake because I bought it from sephora. Way too expensive than online store like hermo or altea.

[Review] Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream




Product : Ultra Facial Cream
Brand : Kiehl's
Price : RM 120.00
Quantity : 50ml
Availability : Kiehl's stores nationwide & online

What it claims
  • This Kiehl’s classic face cream offers continuous moisture replenishment for dry skin throughout the day with adventure-tested protection from severe weather.
  • Replenishes skin hydration by drawing and absorbing moisture from the air
  • Leaves skin smooth, soft and healthy-looking
  • Formulated for all skin types

My thoughts 
  • It is very good for the dry patches on my face
  • I feel it hydrates quite well
  • It absorbs nicely and my face does not become too shinny
  • It also do well underneath the foundation 
  • but sometimes it made my skin burn just a little bit 

Conclusion 

I love it! I think it is more suitable for people with combination skin , slightly dry skin  and normal skin. If your skin is slightly oily it is okay for you but if your skin is too oily I'm afraid it might be too rich for you and might cause break out.
