Review: Neesya Overnight Radiance Kit

By Wei Ni (Guest Blogger)

The quest for perfect skin is a never ending battle. At different ages we have different skin concerns & while we do our best each day, each month, each year to achieve that perfect, luminous, flawless skin it isn't always achievable without a hefty price tag.

When I was given the opportunity to try out the Neesya Overnight Radiance Kit, I didn't hesitate to say yes! After all, you never truly know if a product will work on you until you give it a go. Thankfully, I am blessed with non-sensitive skin so I can pretty much try out any products without having too nasty a reaction, or if any at all. :)

A full sized Neesya Illuminating Essence along with 2 samples of Overnight Radiance Kit. 


Quick product info on the LumiScience Illuminating Essence

REVIEW
Lumi Brightening Enzymatic Refiner: As these sample sizes were rather small, I only managed to use'em twice for each bottle (total 4 times in 2 weeks). The texture and consistency of this Refiner is a whitish sticky texture that sticks well to your skin  and  doesn't drip down. I managed to slather on a decent amount on my face, after washing it off I immediately noticed a difference in my skin! I could see that it looked smoother, as if all the dead skin cells were removed  and  when I touched my face it felt incredibly soft  and  my skin even had a slight luminosity. I reckon if you had the full tube  and  really put on a thick layer (I couldn't really as I wanted to maximise how often I could use it) twice a week, you will notice a more significant improvement on your skin texture. 

Lumi Brightening Overnight Mask: Similar to the refiner, the tube was rather small so I managed only to get about 4 usage of it. When I applied it on for the first time at night  and  rinsed my face out in the morning, I found it kept my skin incredibly hydrated  and  smooth the whole night! Despite me being in an air-conditioned room. I literally wake up with glowing smooth skin in the mornings! This product really impressed me in terms of price and  quality! 

LumiScience Illuminating Essence: My favourite of the bunch! As I also received a full size bottle for this, I've been using this at least twice a day! In the day with just a light layer of sunscreen  and  at nights I'll alternate between my night moisturiser or an overnight mask. In 2 weeks, I noticed significant improvements on my skin! My face felt softer  and  smoother to the touch. Dark patches  and  scars were lighten. My skin had more of a glow  and  a lovely luminosity to it. I even noticed a reduction of fine lines around my eyes! When applied after a deep cleansing mask, I find that my pores are less noticeable  and  overall skin texture improved. It is recommended to apply 4-5 drops on your face, however I find that this product already moisturises my skin, so in the day I just use about 2-3 drops  and  at night 4-5 drops. 


TLDR: 
Brightening Enzyme promises:
Lifts away dead skin cells  and  skin dulling impurities. Promotes cell renewal  and  fades superficial blemishes. Clears pores. Brightens & illuminates skin.
PROMISE KEPT! 

Brightening Overnight Mask promises:
Visibly brighter & more luminous skin. Revitalises complexion. Recharges tired skin. Replenishes suppleness, vitality  and  glow.
PROMISE KEPT! 

Illuminating Essence promises:
Skin regains it's translucent appearance. Skin is brightened  and  hydrated. Fight dark spots. Soothes  and  clarifies skin.
PROMISE KEPT! 

Do note that I've only used these products for about 2 weeks. To benefit fully from all the goodness that are in these products, it is recommended that you use it for at least 1-3 months to see full results.

There are plenty of good skincare products out there, so pick one that is within your budget and works well on your skin. Alternatively, this Brightening Overnight Mask by Neesya is pretty good for the price tag. The Illuminating Essence is a great serum to be used before your moisturiser, at only RM79 it definitely won't break your bank. Lastly, for the Brightening Enzyme I would say that if you have overly sensitive skin to go easy on this otherwise at a great price of RM35 you don't got nothing to lose.

So don't say we didn't tell ya! Clear, smooth skin is now within your grasp!

Style you for you!

By Cynthia Lee (Guest Blogger)

 

When you log on to Styles4u.net, you'd probably be blinking your eyes for the first few seconds at the bright and kawaii website staring back at you. But amidst all the colourful visuals and text on the page, there are lots of discounted pieces waiting to be found!

One concern I have when it comes to buying brands online (and not from the retail website itself): Are these products authentic? Especially if they are sold at lower prices compared to retail stores. 
Well, Styles4u is able to bring you discounts because they stock up in bulk to sell to us & thus making a lower margin of profit. They also have a strict policy against fake/copy items to ensure their customers always get authentic products. 

OK less talking, more shopping! At first glance you may not know where to navigate, so here's the easiest way to go about it: Scroll down and you will see the categories on the left column. Just click on each category to navigate! 

I selected 'Skincare'. 
I like how they separate the products in a 'Best Products' section before showing the complete product list. They also filter it by brand with a 'compare' function so you can view similar products side-by-side before you make your purchase decision!



Some of my favorite picks include:

Lovemore Snail Mucin Hydra Repair Cream, RM59Missha The Style Art Designing Cashmere Loose powder #1, RM49.90

It was great to see the Missha Cashmere Loose Powder on sales since Sha-Lene has been raving about how good the Missha range of skincare and make up is. I have always been using the Missha BB Cream for many years but have yet to try this out. The Missha range has been one of Styles4u main products for many years and we can be safely assured that they only carry authentic Missha products.

The Lovemore range is a new range for me to try out. As I am currently tied up with trying out all the products from my beauty box haul, I have yet to test the cream out properly. Will do another post for the Snail cream and let you know if it's really working!

Description :
"Lovemore Snail Mucin Healing Facial cream contains natural ingredients with cutting edge technology to reduce the appearance of fine lines. Its formulated with snail mucin and shea butter, proven to strengthen the skin structure and firms the complexion to restore youthful contours and promote cell regeneration, resulting in a softer and smoother skin"


Reviews to come soon!



Now, here's something very thoughtful initiated by the owner of Styles4u. For purchases of items made from now up to 20th November 2013, 50% of the total sales will go to helping the abandoned animals in the shelter via Malaysia Independant Animal Rescue (MIAR) and SPCA.
In return for your support, the owner will throw in 3 pcs of mask for each sales generated to help these abandoned animals.

So how do you go about it?
Purchase anything from Styles4u. In your checkout remarks column, indicate that you are a YSK reader or use this : YSK LOVE ANIMALS so they can track and process half of the sales immediately for donation.
Alternatively, you can also write in to Styles4U Facebook page or message and indicate you made a payment and quote YSK LOVE ANIMALS.
Your sales will be processed accordingly so that half goes as donation and in return you get an additional 3 pcs of assorted mask for your generous purchase.
Noble ain't it? :)



Shop while you help the animals!

Product Review: Cami Secret

By Mechell Lee (Guest Blogger)

Hi shopping kaki!

Have you heard about the latest secret in town, brought to us by Supermodel's Secrets e-shop?

If you've gotten hold of it, then you'd know that this secret:
  1. Protects you from obscene stares
  2. Brings you from day to night/ night to day
  3. Prevents nagging from conservative parents
  4. "Layers" your clothing without actually adding any bulk!

THE Cami Secret, also known as a 'clip-on camisole', is designed for those low cut tops/ dresses that simply must be worn as it is and cannot be worn with a tube 'cause tube tops tend to stick out at ugly areas around the bust as well as the back.

Hence the dilemma of impulsive purchasing low cut clothing then resorting to resell it because "I have no occasion to wear this!" or "Too sexy for me!" and not to mention all the nagging that goes on from the elder generation. I've been through this argument one too many times with my mum/ grandma, and trust me, it's really frustrating! But Supermodel's Secrets came to the rescue once again with this revolutionary Cami Secret.



Upon opening your parcel when it arrives, you'll see these strange looking cloth pieces with a clip on each side. Warning: you may feel a tad bit disappointed that the Cami Secret looks so simple, unoffensive and unassuming, at least I did! Haha. But it doesn't matter how it looks, it fulfills its functions and it fulfills them well.




How to wear the Cami Secret? Just clip it on to both sides of your bra straps. :)

A little strange and takes some getting used to since we're so used to the tube top giving full coverage; but that's how it would look after clipping both sides on.

Another awesome feature is that you can adjust the level of coverage you want by moving the clips further up or lower down the straps ;) In the official picture, it shows low coverage but I couldn't manage to achieve that effect even after I tugged down the clips as low as I could. So if you're looking for medium/ high coverage, then the Cami Secret is ideal :)

Cami Secret is also really versatile in terms of wearing, since it comes in three basic and very matchable colors: black, white, beige ; AND you can match it with so many clothing items. My personal philosophy for smart shopping? If you can match something with any 3 items in your wardrobe, buy it! :D Products like Cami Secret definitely can be paired with more than 3 items, so there, you have my permission to stock up! Haha.

Cami Secret paired with a vest, and you can wear it with so much more! Definitely comes into handy especially when tube tops are not an option. Even bra tops that come with a tube attached are less versatile since they have thick straps. ;)

Still, note that Cami Secret is best worn with clothing which are tight fitting, at least around the bust area, because you definitely don't want it to flap under loose clothes. For better security purposes, Michelle from Supermodel Secrets recommended that petite girls may try to tuck the loose ends under your bra after you have clipped it on.

With Cami Secret, you don't have to head out feeling bulky and hot, and you don't even have to worry if your buttons pop! ;)

For only RM24 (with post express!) you get 1 set (3 pieces, 3 colors) OR if you are taking my advice to stock up or buy with a friend, it's only RM40 for 2 sets. See you at Supermodel's Secrets! ;)
