REVIEW: SKINMISO PORE BEAUTY NOSE PACK

Blackheads, whiteheads, enlarged pores all seem to be a major concern for many people, especially with the hot weather and bad pollution!!!

I recently came across this Pore Beauty Nose Pack by Skinmiso (it was inside my Memebox Superbox #11: Before Special Day), and it really is OUR HOLY GRAIL PRODUCT!!! It is a 3-step pore care for those who are struggling with excess sebum and blackheads around the nose.

Inside The Box:

4 x Step 1 Mask: Blackhead & Whitehead Removal Mask

4 x Step 2 Mask : Pore Tightening & Soothing Mask

1 x Step 3: Silky Essence 15ml

Unlike other nose packs, this is not the type that sticks onto your nose and you have to painfully peel off afterwards!

How To Use:

Use on a cleansed face.

Place the Step 1 Mask onto your nose and wait for 10-15 minutes. The mask will give you a cool and refreshing sensation, and it will open up your pores to make the impurities come out easier.
The Step 1 Mask is enriched with various plant extracts to help open up pores :D

Can you see how it is big enough to even fit on a man's nose?! That's awesome!

Remove the Step 1 Mask after 10-15 minutes, and you will see the excess sebum and blackheads gushing out of the enlarged pores!

I was really shocked to see how much of the excess sebum/blackheads that had already floated to the surface of the skin!!!

Gently remove the visible blackheads, whiteheads, or any other impurities clogging your pores using a blackhead extractor. Do the probing in quick motions and avoid harsh dragging or scraping across the skin.

Hubby wasn't very pleased with this step, as it was quite painful, but it wasn't as bad when I changed to use my blackhead extractor instead of his one - the shape matters! The blackheads were also very easy to extract, as they had all floated to the surface of the skin after applying the Step 1 Mask!

Place the Step 2 Nose Mask onto your nose area as you did with the first mask. This Mask will help soothe and tighten up your already enlarged pores. Wait for another 10-15 minutes.
The Step 2 Mask is made from witch hazel extracts, and helps to tighten, soothe, and moisturise :D

Remove the Mask after 10-15 minutes, and you will see that the pores are tightened already! Massage in the remaining essence into the nose, then rub a tiny bit of the Silky Essence over your nose for a silky-matte finish!
The Silky Essence will finish off the process by controlling sebum and oil levels of your skin!

It took us around 30 minutes to finish using the 3-step process, and by the time we finished, hubby was already feeling very sleepy! The good news is, he has a cleaner nose now :D

Before using the pack, I also made hubby use the Multiberry Yogurt Peeling Gel by Laneige, so that it would "soften" his skin and make the pore extracting process easier. I also applied toner to his face before applying the Silky Essence, then I applied his usual essence, serum, and lotion to his face afterwards.

We were very pleased with this product, and we are thinking of repurchasing it already!!! I did a search online, and saw them retailing for approx. US$20.99 for a 10-week pack (I was only give a 4-week pack inside my Memebox).

I recently purchased a 10-week pack from Wishtrend, which also came with a pore extractor (it came in a container too), in which the shape is awesome and it really doesn't hurt as much, for a price of US$29.58...I got free shipping as well as US$9 off using a discount coupon!!

BEST HYDRATING PRODUCT EVER!!!

Summer is nearly here, and it's really humid and hot outside, and what everyone wants to do is to sit under the air-conditioner all day long, but prolonged stay under the air-conditioner will dry the skin......so here I am to present you with the solution to this:

DOCTORCOS AMINO ACID HYBRID SHEET FREE MASK ADVANCED (version 1)

The Doctorcos Mask is an innovative water-enriched facial treatment that boosts skin's moisture levels by 98.19%, and results can last for more than 24 hours! The moist veil technology restores skin's elasticity and smoothness to give it a velvety, even-textured complexion, and skin instantly appears to be brighter and whiter with weekly use.

Ingredients:

• Amino acids: easily absorbed through the dermal layers, accelerate cell metabolism, enhancing skin's ability to retain moisture
• Hyaluronic Acid: a renowned moisturizing ingredient that efficiently moisturises skin for over 24 hours
• Epidermal growth factor EGF: promotes repair of epidermal tissues, locking in moisture and promoting skin cell regeneration
• Water-soluble vitamins B3: minimise free radical damage and whiten skin by inhibiting formation of melanin
• Royal jelly: a rich blend of proteins that nourish skin and reverse signs of aging like wrinkles and dark spots

You can use the Doctorcos Mask as a...

• Cream: massage onto the face and neck with warm hands to enhance penetration of the ingredients
• Makeup Primer: before applying makeup, spread a thin layer onto the face to allow makeup to adhere to skin better
• Mix with BB Cream/Foundation: blend mask with 4 parts BB cream or 2.5 parts liquid foundation to avoid the cakey look and keep the foundation looking fresh all day
• Sleeping (Overnight) Mask: apply a 2-3mm thick layer onto your face and massage gently, then leave onto your face during the night

This is my favourite product for hydration, and it's really awesome - I have really seen my skin improved after using this product, so I would definitely recommend it to others!!! The only thing I would slightly complain about is that it does not come with a spatula, so it does feel slightly unhygienic to dig my fingers into the pot to get the cream, but other than that, it's AWESOME!!!

Hope you enjoyed watching the video and reading my post, and if you have any questions, please comment below! Have a nice day!

Homemade Strawberry Milk

Seeing how well my Homemade Walnut Milk went, I decided to make my own Strawberry Milk too, using real strawberries!!!

Ingredients:

1 cup of strawberries (fresh or frozen is fine)

- 1/2 cup of sugar

- 1 cup of water

- 4 cups of milk

How To:

1. Wash and dice the strawberries

Tip: soak the strawberries into salt water for 2 minutes to help get rid of the dirty stuff

2. Put the diced strawberries, sugar, and water into a pot, and boil for 10-15 minutes.

3. Pour the strawberry syrup into a container using a sieve or mesh bag (I reused the soup bag that I bought for making my walnut milk), and squeeze out the juice.

4. Voila! There, you'll have your strawberry syrup! You can save the cooked strawberries to add to yoghurt or put on pancakes!

5. Fill 3/4 of a cup of milk, and fill the rest of the cup with your strawberry syrup. How much you add is entirely up to you!

6. Voila! There you have made your homemade strawberry milk!

You can put it in the fridge for up to 3 days!

Now, wasn't that easy? It tastes delicious too!! I wonder if I can try making it with other fruits too? :p

Have a nice day!!
