[ Review ] Miguhara Daily Herb Sun Stick

 

Product Description

Fitted with SPF 50+ PA++++, Miguhara Daily Herb Sun Stick is a lightweight sun stick that fends off UV rays while soothing skin with natural herbs like lavender, rosemary and chamomile extracts. Balm-like texture leaves a non-sticky and refreshing finish with no white cast. The gentle formula is suitable for sensitive skin.

I received Miguhara Daily Herb Sun Stick SPF 50+ PA++++ as part of a Stylekorean collaboration. This is my first foray into the brand. 

Established in 2013, Korean brand MIGUHARA believes in the power of Mother Nature to enhance beauty. Through extensive research and development, MIGUHARA develops safe and efficacious skin care and make up products from natural, plant-based ingredients to promote skin regeneration and maintain healthy skin. 

When it comes to sun protection, more really is more. While a good sunscreen is non-negotiable in any skincare routine, I’ve recently added a new step that’s made a noticeable difference—applying a sun stick as a primer before my regular sunscreen. At first, it might sound like overkill, but layering sun protection doesn’t just boost effectiveness; it also helps ensure better coverage, especially on days when I’m out and about. 

Packaging, Scent and Texture

Miguhara Daily Herb Sun Stick is a 20g product with a sleek compact packaging designed for portability and ease of use. Housed in a twist-up tube —similar to a deodorant stick or oversized lip balm—they fit comfortably in the palm of your hand and slide easily into any purse, pocket, or makeup bag. It has a snap-on cover, with a clear plastic lid for hygiene and accidental mess. 

It has a soapy perfume-like fragrance which I rather do without, if given an option but thankfully, its not overpowering. The balm texture has a glowy finishing.

[ Review ] Sigi Skin Daylight Oasis Vitamin C Brightening Serum

Thoughtfully formulated with an optimal 15% L-Ascorbic Acid, exosomes - which are rare in the market, and with a blend of more clinically proven ingredients like resveratrol, fucoidan, turmeric, copper tripeptide growth factor, and Vitamin E, Daylight Oasis is on-route to be your skincare must have!

- Improves skin texture

- Firms and increase skin elasticity

Sigi Skin is a local skincare brand which I have been eyeing for awhile and after purchasing its popular sunscreen (which I have yet to open), I purchased its Acne Rescue Kit where Sigi Skin Daylight Oasis Vitamin C Brightening Serum comes free. It was given free, as the serum was expiring in 3 months time but it wasn't mentioned during the product listing (which was such a shame). 

According to its website, Sigi Skin is a local award-winning skincare brand dedicated to delivering superfood infused with clinically proven actives skincare products that are both effective and free of toxins. Powered by a combination of carefully curated superfood and scientifically proven ingredients, the products are multi-purpose, protecting skin and repairing damage caused by pollution and environmental stressors.

[ Review ] AHC Premium Hydra Gold Foil Eye Mask

 

Product Description

AHC Premium Hydra Gold Foil Eye Mask is a comprehensive anti-aging treatment that cares for the skin around the eyes. It moisturizes, tightens, brightens and reduces dark circles, eliminates puffiness, soothes and softens the skin.

After emptying Dermatory Retinal Eye Patch and Goodal Green Tangerine Vita-C Eye Gel Patch, it is time to try out AHC Premium Hydra Gold Foil Eye Mask which I purchased during my last Korea trip. 

Cosmeceutical brand A.H.C (Aesthetics Hydration Cosmetics) was launched in 1999 by Carver Korea Ltd. and is the sister brand to Korean cosmetics labels Shara Shara, VIVITO, and Dr. MJ. Using only natural plant-based ingredients, A.H.C transforms skin to its optimum condition from deep within through a holistic range of hydrating skincare products. The luxury brand offers targeted solutions for aging, dryness, blemishes and discoloration that can be applied to sensitive, oily and trouble-prone skin. 

This is my first foray into the brand, despite hearing so much about its cult eye cream. 

Packaging, Scent and Texture

AHC Premium Hydra Gold Foil Eye Mask comes in a box of 5 individually packed eye masks. Each packed eye mask is enveloped within a clear plastic packaging. The fabric-like material is thin and comfortable, leaving a refreshing sensation upon layering on the undereye area. There is a light fragrance. 

How To Use: 

1) After cleansing and toning, apply the mask to the eye area for 15-20 minutes. 

2) Remove the mask and gently pat the essence in to absorb. 

3) Continue with your routine.

Performance and Ingredients

Cruelty-free and free of parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, and synthetic fragrance. AHC Premium Hydra Gold Foil Eye Mask is suitable for morning and express care as it quickly tones the skin, smoothens it, refreshes and improves its condition, eliminating traces of fatigue and stress.

The delicate fabric base of the mask consists of three layers that perfectly allow air to pass through and effectively transport the active ingredients of the essence to the epidermis. The mask fits tightly to the skin and does not leave a sticky film after use.

Shaped like a cat-eye, this 24-karat gold fabric-like material is thin and soft, leaving a comfortable and refreshing sensation upon layering on the eye area. The generous size meant it can cover both the upper and lower eye area.

I usually prefer to layer it for up to an hour before removing the eye mask. It left my eye area looking more rested and less tired. 

The key ingredients are...

24-karat Gold : Improves skin turgor, combats the effects of UV radiation and helps other ingredients penetrate deeper.

Hydrolyzed Collagen : increases hydration levels, stimulates the production of elastin and collagen, and maintains healthy and youthful skin.

Adenosine : Stimulates the production of procollagen-1, which is responsible for density, elasticity and the absence of wrinkles.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) : Lightens the skin by suppressing the production of the pigment melanin and normalizes the functioning of the sebaceous glands.

Tranexamic Acid : Blocks the enzyme that triggers the synthesis of melanin - tyrosinase. Does not cause photosensitivity, so the mask can be used in the summer.

Trehalose : Slows down aging, fights oxidative stress, preventing cell destruction by free radicals.

Hyaluronic Acid: Hydrates skin to help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Conclusion

To conclude, The AHC Premium Hydra Gold Foil Eye Mask is a thoughtful option for those looking to refresh tired eyes with a quick, pampering treatment. With its cruelty-free formulation and absence of parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, and synthetic fragrance, it’s gentle on the skin and suitable for sensitive users. The unique cat-eye shape and ultra-thin, breathable fabric ensure a snug yet comfortable fit, delivering a cooling, de-puffing effect that’s perfect for morning use or whenever your eyes need a pick-me-up.

While results are temporary, the immediate smoothing and revitalizing effect make it a lovely self-care treat—especially before special occasions or after a long day. If you’re seeking an eye mask for puffiness, tired eyes, or express care, this gold foil mask might just earn a spot in your skincare stash.

[ Review ] L'oreal Absolut Repair Conditioner

 

Product Description

Absolut Repair Conditioner offers the ultimate professional resurfacing experience for damaged and dry hair. The resurfacing conditioner helps to visibly resurface damaged hair with a very light and soft touch, treats and detangles without weighing the hair down. 

It’s been over a decade since I last used a L'Oréal hair product, so when my aunt gifted me the L'Oréal Absolut Repair Conditioner, I was curious—and a little nostalgic. For the last 2 years, I relied mostly on weekly deep conditioning masks, rarely reaching for a regular conditioner. But ever since monthly hair coloring became a must (hello, stubborn greys), a moisturizing conditioner has become non-negotiable in my routine.

On normal days, I didn’t notice a dramatic change when using this conditioner. But after a fresh hair coloring session? The difference was night and day. My usually dry, straw-like post-color hair felt soft, smooth, and pudding-like—yes, that silky. Even better, it didn’t trigger any scalp flakiness, which is something I’ve often struggled with after coloring.

The L'Oréal Absolut Repair Conditioner has a rich, creamy texture that spreads easily and rinses out without leaving any greasy residue. It detangles effortlessly and treats dry ends without weighing down the hair. Formulated with Quinoa + Protein, this conditioner claims to reduce hair surface damage by 77% and leave hair 7x shinier.

Ideal for damaged and weakened hair, this conditioner delivers on:

✔️ Instant softness
✔️ Easier detangling
✔️ Nourished, silky strands
✔️ No scalp irritation post-coloring

While it may not be a miracle worker on non-coloring days, it’s definitely a hero product for hair color aftercare—and one I’ll keep around for those times my hair needs extra love.

Final Verdict:
A great go-to conditioner for color-treated hair—especially right after a dye job. If you’re dealing with dryness, dullness, or damage from chemical treatments, this may be just what your hair needs to bounce back.

[ Review ] OC Naturals Berry Bliss Kids 3 in 1 Conditioning Shampoo & Body Wash

 

Product Description

OC Naturals 3-in-1 Berry Bliss Conditioning Shampoo and Body Wash will have your little ones wanting bath time! The natural, plant-based, gentle shampoo, conditioner and body wash all-in-one is enriched with vitamin E, pro-vitamin B5, raspberry extract and wheat germ oil, and with a gentle, blissfully sweet fragrant formula, it makes it the total cleansing and moisturising package

I purchased OC Naturals Berry Bliss Kids 3 in 1 Conditioning Shampoo & Body Wash sometime back, after falling in love with their body washes. 

This is formulated for children and can be used as a body wash, shampoo and conditioner. I purchased it, thinking it will be gentle for my sensitive skin and scalp.

Packaging, Scent and Texture

OC Naturals Berry Bliss Kids 3 in 1 Conditioning Shampoo & Body Wash is a 400ml sized bottle with a flick top cap. The cap does not function well and cannot be closed fully, causing leakage at times. It has an artificial berry fragrance that may delight children but probably not discerning adults. 

How To Use :

Apply to wet hair, form a gentle lather then rinse. Apply to a moist puff or wash cloth & gently lather all over body then rinse.

Performance and Ingredients

I used OC Naturals Berry Bliss Kids 3 in 1 Conditioning Shampoo & Body Wash as a shampoo initially, but it was drying, causing my hair to be straw-like with horrible hair fall that I had to stop after 3 uses. 

As a body wash, the gel-like contents felt slightly sticky although it lathers and cleanses well. Not an ideal body wash, shampoo or conditioner and definitely not a repurchase. 

I realized it costs 3 times more in Singapore, as compared to buying in Australia, while researching for this post. What a disappointing and expensive purchase!

Water, Coco-Glucoside*, Sodium Coco-Sulfate*, Glycerin*, Lauryl Lactyl Lactate*, Glyceryl Oleate*, Polyquaternium-10*, Fragrance, Triticum, Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Fruit Extract, Panthenol, Citric Acid*, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate*.

*Plant derived.

Conclusion

OC Naturals Berry Bliss Kids 3-in-1 Conditioning Shampoo & Body Wash may come in a fun, fruity scent that appeals to children, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. As a shampoo, it left my hair dry and brittle with noticeable hair fall after just a few uses. While it performs decently as a body wash in terms of lather, the slightly sticky texture and poor packaging—especially the faulty cap that leaks—add to the overall disappointment.

To make matters worse, I later discovered it’s priced nearly three times higher in Singapore compared to Australia, making it a costly and underwhelming purchase. Between the drying formula, ineffective 3-in-1 functionality, and inconvenient packaging, this is one I won’t be repurchasing.
