My Reviews

Here are reviews of some products – facial, cosmetics, hair products – that I have trialed and tested.

Skin/ Facial Products

I am constantly on a quest, in search for a perfect skin. Simply because, I suffered from serious adult acne breakout since I was 19 or 20 years old, and till today, tho no longer as bad as before, I still experience breakouts around my t-zone areas. Probably due to my face being too oily from the over active sebum production to counter for the dryness of my skin, which is a result of the harsh anti blemish formula I am currently obliged to use.

Cosmetics

Since I have uneven skin tone, bumpy surface, over exposed pores, past acne scars that are either darker now or leaving a dent on my face, and the red blotches from the occasional breakouts, I have to resort to some suitable cosmetics or concealers to help hide the observable flaws on my face. So I’d tried a number of brands of foundations, concealer, eye shadows, eyeliners, etc.

Hair

My fair is one of the hardest to maintain, but of cos its not comparable to those who have hair like brooms, etc. Mine, is almost like that of a broom. It gets pretty dry and hay-like in the past, I’d switch shampoos, conditioners, from the cheapest on the market to spending quite abit that it will cause certain amount of damage to your wallet instead of to your hair, unfortunately, money is not the solution, becos my hair was fixed in a quick fix. I would also source for other leave-in hair care or products to hold my hair together. Just think of my hair being like Hermione’s in Harry Potter (The sorcer’s stone)-the very first of the sequel. That WAS how my hair looked like for 25 years.

To think of it, after reading what I am setting up, its pretty sad to see how I have been struggling to keep my image, up to average if not perfect. I mean, I am already constantly trying to keep my weight in control and working hard to stay fit and healthy looking as a whole. Not only do I have all that weight thing to worry about, my hair, my face is not of the most desirable among so many others. I mean, if only I could have one thing that looks good about me, it might stop me from trying so hard somewhere, I believe. But No. I have to be born with not so much of a reasonable feature on my face, I’d have to be born with WRITHY Hair texture, an inherited pimple/ acne prone gene, eyes too small to see when I smile or laugh, and a body not worth dying for. Sighz…I should have developed some form of a depression by now, or even some time ago, but NOPE!! Thats’ not what I was born out with, depressive genes are not a part of me when I first arrived into this world. Like usual I refuse to let fate bring me down to submission.

So here I am, trying out any kind of products I could lay my hands on or afford, just to test and see if it’ll ever work for me, so that I couls just stop somewhere that produces some results.
