REVIEW | Cellnique Intensive Hydro Repair Biological Masque

Now, I was never one to rave about cleansers because in the olden days, a cleanser was a cleanser, and any cleanser was good as long as it did the job of cleansing my face, right? I experienced a sudden breakout in Sep 2014, which lasted for at least a good three months.. And even now, I'm on acne medication (Roaccutane) and still battling those pesky post-acne pigmentation and scarring! :(

So anyway, thanks to Roaccutane, my skin has been rather flaky and dry lately, especially around the chin/mouth. And foaming cleansers that leave my skin feeling tight and squeaky are definitely not doing the job for me now. Quite by a combination of coincidence and good fortune, Cellnique sent over their newest product: Intensive Hydro Repair Biological Masque!

I have to say that I was worried about using the Intensive Hydro Repair Biological Masque at first.

For someone who's just recovered from a bad breakout, I was extremely apprehensive. I was worried that using 'too moisturise' mask would clog my pores again and cause further breakouts. Previous masks I used always felt just a little too thick and greasy on my skin, and I wasn't sure if they were really working their magic. I just never fell in love with them, nor did I ever re-purchase any of the previous masks I tried.

Verdict?

I LOVE IT. 

I really do.. I am almost finished with it within 2 weeks. But that is also due to the way I use it (which I now realise must be a bit heavy-handed..) I remember the instructions said to use once in a week, but I used twice a week due to my skin condition.

The  Intensive Hydro Repair Biological Masque promises the following:

*Immediate comfort
*Cooling , calming and restoring the skin
*Skin emerges infinitely regenerated
*Help skin achieve maximum hydration and revitalize the complexion

Four main ingredients are Hyaluronic Acid, Snail Mucin, Hydrergy and SYN®-HYCAN.

Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrergy and Syn-Hycan that helps skin achieve maximum hydration and revitalises the complexion, while Faex and Snail Mucin provide immediate comfort by cooling, calming and restoring the skin, skin emerges infinitely regenerated.

The amazing powers of the Intensive Hydro Repair Biological Masque are illustrated here: See what Intensive Hydro Repair Biological Masque does on my face! 

*Left-Before; Right-After*
FYI, I have fair skin which causes my post inflammatory hyperpigmentation marks slightly red and pinkish.

In the short amount of time, Cellnique mask has managed not to break me out & the areas of extreme red and pale pink contrast have already improved by more than 50% as observed. However, this type of result would have also taken me with assistance (pure Vitamin C serum), Cellnique mask has seriously acted as a catalyst to fasten the skin healing process. In sum, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who has the same problem like me!

Barbie Hair with Berry Ash

Hi, I'm here again to blog about my hair dye post, a very short post. I've been months not dying my hair and you can actually see a pudding served on top of my head. I don't wanna show u that because I feel paiseh to show it out, it's so unpleasant sight!

With that, I decided to try something new, Freshlight foam dye from Schwarzkopf in Berry Ash. The color seems not bad huh on the Barbie's hair and I hope my outcome will be same as hers. *pray* 

So this is my hair color before dye. I didn't take any photos during the process because I'm all alone to dye my hair. 

Gonna show you the outcome right now! I do like the outcome of the color, it's kind of dark ash brown instead. At this point, I really love my hair color! No more black root! 

Alright! Serve you one more photo before continuing my drama, Vampires Diaries. Just ignore the bare face of me but FOCUS on my hair color. So beautiful! It looks like Ang mo hair Liao with ashy color. Haha!

Till then. 

Be A Healthy Snow White with Byco Whitening Soap

Here in Malaysia, being fair is considered beautiful compare to being tan, that's why there are loads & loads of whitening products here.

Whitening lotions... Whitening toners... Whitening scrubs... Whitening facial washes... Whitening creams... The list is endless!

I’m Chinese, so I’m generally fair in my own way, which is light yellow undertone. Of course, I don’t like to tan but I use to be tanned easily and would be very tanned. Oh, and I frequently walk to Uni. I don’t wear a hat or sunblock except for the SPF on my face from lotion (I know this is bad, but meh). So, the consequence of having this bad habit has caused me to be tanned into 2 darker tones!

Until I met Moses, my friend, I heard from him he has a friend start selling whitening soap, which will be officially available at Jaya Grocer & Village Grocer, Malaysia, and being the curious girl little girl I am, I had received 2 bars of soap of Byco from him to test it out.

Byco Beauty Whitening Soap.

Although it's marketed as a whitening soap, it doesn't really "whiten" as much as actually brightening it and restoring it. The purpose of this soap isn't to bleach your skin, but to bring your skin color back to its natural skin color. Since it has real papaya extract in it, it has a component called papaine that is a natural exfoliator to remove dead skin cells and also create cell turnover, revealing new healthy skin. This product is a do-it-all for me. Even though I do not want to be "snow white" or Caucasian but I'm happy being oriental and like my skin color now!

Another thing to note, you might be thinking this soap may be very drying on the skin, but I personally don't have a problem with that because carrot extract in this soap fixes that right up, which has the properties of anti-inflammatory and soothing effect on uncomfortable skin to bring moisture balance back for skin.

To use this, I wet my skin and hands, rub the soap on my hands to get a good amount and apply it on my skin. Massaging it for a while and then wash it off. Simple as that! 

Here's my before & after photo (under same mode/ setting and light):

Before.

After. As promised, it does brightens up my skin, it really worked!

I did get a shade lighter after constantly using it for a month, results will vary with every person. Some will see results after a week or few months. Patience is the key. It takes time because it is adjusting your skin to the change gradually instead of a quick change which can cause trauma to the skin. 

 

Overall, I've very pleased with this soap. I see my complexion getting better, gradually and it's continuing to improve. I’ll continue using it and this becomes a staple product for me, I do make it a point to include it in my shopping basket next time whenever I'm running out of it.

Model Winsom Lim get addicted on it as well.

Butter Up @Seri Kembangan

I was hyped and excited to go to Butter Up at Seri Kembangan for some great pastries. They offer wide assortment of menu, and their baked goods are in reasonable price. 

Here's some pics of the place (credited to esticalovesfood).

Such a surprise to have a cozy and yet comfy shop in Serdang area. Modern European design is filling every corner of the shop, it makes you feel like living in another countries. 

The place is not that large but yet they still have indoor and outdoor dining areas.

Illy Mocha is served. I was so surprise to see Illy coffee had actually launched in my town, I know this brand from doing part of my assignment, their target market was initially targeted to high coffee consumption countries, especially Italy. I never thought they further expand their brand in Malaysia, it's so good for coffee lover to try out this new quality brand.

Seafood Aglio Olio was......so so. It was a bit bland but perfect for those who prefer anything 清淡. On the upper right is my Earl Grey Tea.

I ordered 1 blueberry and 1 original (vanilla) cream puffs.

Cream puffs look so wonderful with the icing sugar sprinkled on top of it. The shells are light and fluffy with a nice crispness on the outside. The cream is smooth and very rich with its natural vanilla aroma and not being overly sweet, just plain awesome. Guess will come back for this far more than I probably should! 

I want to apology for not taking clear pics of my ordered puffs. I couldn't wait to taste it when it was served just right in front of me. It waves towards me and keeps calling me:" come and eat me, faster come......"

Ok la, compensate you with the nicer close up pic, credited to esticalovesfood. 

Till then. Enjoy reading :)

Freaky facts about Fion

Kick comes, think about fun facts about myself and jot them down.

#1 I love sunny side up egg since 5 until now.
I could only eat my meal with sunny side up egg when I was 5 and thus nutrition deficiency happened in me!

#2 This is disgusting but I like to see animal carcass.
But this doesn't mean I will like torturing animals. I'm an animal lover indeed! 

#3 I somehow do enjoy watching horror movie alone in the home.

The more horror the better, HAHAHAHAHA!

#4 Like to look at hot guys and talk about how hot they are but will never do anything.

#5 I can't read with the television on in the background but love listening to music instead.

#6 Want to marry Aaron Kwok since 8.
Jay Chou, Robert Pattinson, Justin Timberlake, Maroon 5, David Beckham and the list goes on.

#7 I like everything Western even though I'm Chinese.
I could eat up 2 plates of spaghetti (any sauces will do) instead of 2 bowls of rice.

#8 Have a terrible lying skill.
My mouth will quiver like an earthquake while telling a lie. Lol! That's how people around me will so soon figure it out.

#9 Believe in everything unless proven otherwise.
I'm a person full of hope, such an angel. Wth, just a joke.

#10 I don't like.....cats.
I'm sorry.

人生目标

 

我们，学院的素样。

三个来自不同地方，不同背景，不同教育的女生，大谈人生目标。

谈话后，回家真的有认真思考。我的梦想是什么？我的人生目标是什么？想做什么事？我想做得事很多，但是很遗憾的，不是每个人都看得到它。因为在成长的过程中我们可能背弃了它，可能压抑了它对你的重要，也或者它被生活的挫折给掩盖过去了。

“人因梦想而伟大”，这句话不是广告词，而是事实！因为现在你的想法、行动与态度，会受到未来的你的影响，而那个未来的你，就是你的人生目标与梦想。

在人群中，每个人都有机会称为独一无二的那个人。所以，别害怕。别茫然。勇敢地去追求自己的人生目标。 💭🏃

终。

那天，午餐：鱿鱼翁菜、龙眼豆花、汤圆豆浆。

我的汤圆豆浆。

看到汤圆，就想到冬至将到临。过了冬至，也意味着快过农历了，趁现在我也要为未来的一年好好的做规划了！

终。

Be shrimper @ Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.

Throwback birthday celebration with 3 December babies. 

Happy belated birthday to the 3 December babies. 

Blueberry smoothie was served, which is concoction of blueberries, strawberries and non-fat vanilla frozen yogurt. Well, it was pretty good, tastes like vanilla ice cream indeed.

Chicken Fingers arrived in a plate with lined Bubba Gump's newspaper and it was great for sharing. 

Shrimper's Net Catch, looked very appetizing and was a large generous serving. The shrimps were all plump and cooked perfectly. Highly recommend. 

I was so bloated after feeding myself with great foods. What to do next after u have boosted up your energy level??? Of course, have photo taking session!

Beauty pageants of 2013.

We all have grown up and my babies become more and more pretty than before. 

Hunk mans? 🙊

"Instagram" was so happening!

Lastly, my selfie shot with this London's red telephone box mini cupcake! Resistant to eat due to its cuteness.

Signing out with a selfie. Just got a new tattoo, love it so much! 😄

Warm remind: I just get addicted to an app, called dayre. It's so so so instant and convenient, I can't stop updating stuff there. U can just "stalk" me there, @fionloo :D

Salon Miko: Lovin' my Pink, Purple and Blue Dip Dye!

Hello all!
This is quite an overdue post, SO SORRY ABOUT IT! But I gotta say, my latest hair color is amazingly stunning and I am so in love with it! And it is incredibly lasting as well.. It's been almost a month since I got these pink/purple/blue streaks done and they are still looking absolutely gorgeous!

So in love with dip dye hair still! Hahaha. I always feel that it looks great and  it's something different. Dip Dyes (sometimes known as Tip Dyes) were a big trend for Spring/Summer 2012 and with Autumn upon us they don't show any signs of going away!

Here you go!

Part One: The Color + Hair Cut.

I've gotten alot inquiries asking if bleaching is required for my pink/purple/blue highlights and yes, bleaching is actually required for those streaks to be highlighted pink/purple/blue.  Since I'm a brunette it would be kind of bad for my hair. Especially bleaching my hair. But it's okay, just try once upon a time! :)

Part Two: Treatment!

  I got hair treatment done in the same day! If you get frequent coloring and bleaching done so often like I do, hair treatment is absolutely essential to ensure that your hair condition is kept as healthy as possible! 

 And... TAADAAAAA!!! Isn't this completely lovely? Shinky is such a genius when it comes to blending those colors together and the effect is totally mesmerizing!

My amazing hair stylist, Shinky! After entrusting my hair to him for the past almost 1 year, I feel totally secure in his hands.

 Finally...finishing off blowdrying and here's the final end result! Soft, bouncy, shiny hair! Yay! I left the salon happy camper.

  So in love with this hair color! I am ever eternally grateful to Salon Miko, Shinky for being my hair hairstylist for the past 1 year. I have honestly not had to worry about my hair at all!
