Review : Sephora Triple Action Cleansing Water

Product Description
This cleansing water eliminates impurities and makeup without the soapy texture. With the help of a Sephora-exclusive ingredient, HydroSenn it leaves your skin suppler than hyaluronic acid. An all in one formula that cleanses the face and eyes. Lightweight and refreshing texture.

A 25ml size of the Sephora Triple Action Cleansing Water was part of the Sephora Beauty On The Fly package which I purchased during Christmas last year.

Formulated without parabens, sulfates and phthalates, the the cleansing water has a too-strong fragrance that lingers throughout the cleansing process . I use this as a make-up remover and since cleansing water has always been my choice of make-up remover, I am used to its clear water-like contents on cotton pads to cleanse away all my make-up.

It is relatively easy to use and my face was void of sunscreen, BB Cream and loose powder after using Sephora Triple Action Cleansing Water with 2 cotton pads. Just have to be careful when you use it around the eyes as the cleansing water tends to sting alittle. And with such a strong fragrance, it may be a source of irritant to some.

I have yet to use it on heavy make-up though so I can't comment on that aspect.

This product scored 3.6 from 47 users on Makeupalley.

Sephora Triple Action Cleansing Water would be a good buy for those
- who have on a budget constraint
- who like to seek out value-for-money products
- who use light make-up
- who do not mind heavy fragrance
- who will like to try out the effectiveness of a cleansing water

Are You A Culprit Of These 5 Daily Mistakes That Cause Acne?

5 daily mistakes that cause you pimples without you realizing it.

1) You don’t wash your hands before washing your face

Hands up, if you are one of them. Luckily, I have been a good girl. I will always wash my hands before touching my skin or eating. Well taught by my parents. It has become a habit from young. 
If your hands are dirty and start lathering with your facial wash, chances are, the facial wash suds will be loaded with the bacteria on your hands and then all over your face. 

Review : Josh Rosebrook Nutrient Day Cream SPF 30 ( Tinted )

Our multi-action day cream performs as a regenerating moisturizer, a broad spectrum sunscreen and light make up. Color adjusting earth minerals correct and brighten skin tone while plant oils and herbal synergies assist in skin transformation and repair via anti-inflammatories, antioxidants, fatty acids and vital phytonutrients. 

This luxurious cream works as a primer, prepping and smoothing skin before makeup, or works alone for a moisturized and protected glow with a balanced, smooth finish. We've chosen high quality, mineral, uncoated, non-nano, high micron zinc oxide to provide effective sunblock against skin-damaging solar rays.

Josh Rosebrook products have been on my radar for the longest time but since its not widely available in retail and there are no samples for me to try out, I have been hesitant in ordering it, until An Uplifted Day came along and provided samples with any purchase. 

I requested for a complimentary Josh Rosebrook Nutrient Day Cream SPF 30 ( Tinted ) which came together with my order of other skincare products. Josh Rosebrook is the founder of his own products labelled with his name, and his products are popular among the green beauty community. I don't think I ever heard how bad his products were, only raving how good they were. Curious?

Review : CNP Laboratory Hydrogel Eye Lifting Patch

Product Description
Vitamin C intensive eye treatment enriched with Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen, and Vitamin E. It is a cooling eye-patch that improves circulation under the eye and gives dull looking eyes life again.

I am always on the lookout for effective eye treatment masks to reduce my undereye puffiness and fine lines. It may be temporary but I only want to look good, even for just 1 day, especially for that important event. My issue is hereditary so there is nothing much I can do, except to relieve and relax my eyes, in the hope that they will look less tired. Most days, my peepers are hidden behind the spectacles. 

Made in Korea, CNP Laboratory's products were launched by dermatologists Cha Mi-kyung and Lee Dong-won in year 2000 whose mission is to combine dermatological expertise with cosmeceutical ingredients to create scientifically-proven skincare products. In Singapore, they are generous in giving out samples and you can opt for yours here which is how I came to try and then buy some of their products. 

CNP Laboratory Hydrogel Eye Lifting Patch has won Beauty Insider Beauty and Wellness Awards 2016 and Women's Weekly Best Beauty Buys 2017.
