Review : Skin Food Beauty In A Food Mask, Bird's Nest

Product Description
Provide rich hydration to dry skin

I have previously bought 2 sheets of Skinfood Beauty In A Food Mask, Bird's Nest from a Korean website for 1000won each. And of course, there's shipping involved for a ton of other products too.

I used 2 sheets on 2 consecutive days recently, just to nourish my skin, after not using masks for more than a week. Just the name - bird's nest makes one feel pampered and nourished so having it in a sheet mask is just another good marketing gimmick especially if it works well.

Similar to the other masks in the same Beauty In A Food mask range, the sheet mask is thin but sturdy yet pretty wet with essence that is creamy and sticky. It adheres well to skin and performs amazingly good with much hydration.
My skin feels soft and plump with moisture but its a temporary measure for the day as my skin turns back to its dehydrated state the following morning.

Review : Wiseways All Heal Salve

Product Description
A soothing, natural first aid salve for minor cuts, burns, dry spots, scrapes, and diaper areas. Can be used as a healing nipple cream. Great for pets or horses too!
This is my 2nd tub of Wiseways All Heal Salve which is pretty awesome to have it around in the household. A pity that its only available in a 7.1g size in Iherb which meant that it get used up pretty fast. S$5.60 at 7.1g is not exactly an economical price for that tiny pot.

The tiny pot packs a punch in a glass bottle, with a black plastic cap. Unscrew the cap and you will see light yellow contents with a salve texture which meant greasy and sticky stuff.

I use the All Heal Salve on mosquito bites which works 90% of the time, easing the itch and the red bump disappears after awhile. I also use it on scrapes, in the hope that the wounds will get healed faster, although when it eventually does, I am not sure if its due to time, or truly due to the All Heal Salve.

I normally ignore tiny cuts, prefer to let it heal by itself so I have yet to use the salve on them. I tried using it on eczema itches but it only ease them for a short while before the itch came back again.
I treat it as a soothing balm for abrasions and rashes as well and I feel that it helps to ease the itch commonly associated with red rashes on my skin. At the same time, I was also hoping my scars can be reduced, after using the balm but so far, I have not seen a spectacular difference.

I get bites pretty often as compared to the rest in my household, so I always have such balms and potions and repellents around. For now, Wiseways All Heal Salve works pretty well on my scrapes ,bites and rashes so I will continue to buy it often.

You can get it from Iherb, where first time customer is entitled to US$5 off their first order. Use my code OKI787 so that Iherb can also reward me with a US$5 for a new customer referral.

Ingredients :
Olive Oil Extracts of Organic Comfrey, Chickweed and Plantain Leaves, Burdock Root, Calendula, Echinacea and St. Johnswort Flowers, Beeswax, Self Heal Flower Essence and Eilat Gem Essence.

Review : MooGoo Soothing MSM Cream

Product Description
This cream is made using the moisturizing base of our Full Cream with the addition 10% MSM (Organic Sulfur) and the removal of Milk Protein. This is the maximum amount of MSM we could add to the cream. Just mention MSM and watch the Naturopaths go nuts about its skin calming properties. The cream uses Sweet Almond Oil which is one of the best moisturising oils for irritated skin due to its essential fatty acid profile. The cream is also fully loaded with other natural skin healing ingredients. These include Allantoin (Comfrey Root Active), Vitamin E, Aloe Vera and Honey. Paraffin Oil Free. pH Balanced. 

Key Ingredients : 
Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil : High in the types of fatty acids needed for troubled skin. 
Squalene (Olive) : Leave your skin moisturised and dewy. Our body produces a small amount of squalene, but the amount diminishes when we get older, starting in our twenties. Squalene is required for our skin to keep it moisturised and fight aging. It is also a unique antioxidant from olives that protects our skin from free-radical damages. Since Olive squalene's composition is very similar to human sebum, it can penetrate our skin very quickly to help our skin to fight dryness. It enhances skin elasticity and moisture retention. 
Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil : We used coconut oil as a stabiliser, it also helps to moisturise the skin 

Made in Australia, The packaging of MooGoo first draws me in, when I was shopping at 10 10 Mother and Child Essentials in City Square Mall. The illustration is cute and the whole exterior gives a calming and soothing impression. Beside, milk has always garnered a positive feeling of being pure, white and moisturising for the body.
