Garden of Eden Acne Serum Review

Well hello beauty junkies! It's been a while for another beauty review.  Shall we start? Introducing to you, Garden of Eden Acne Serum! Wohooo! *claplikearetardedseal*

Among all serum I have tried, this one is definitely the best! I have acne prone + sensitive skin which eventually made me look like a moon. With a close up view.. moon craters. Yep. Upon seeing this thing in the pharmacy, my heart was pounding real hard and I know I need to get it no matter what! 

This serum claims to heal acne, reducing scar appearance and minimise the oiliness of my skin. And it appears to be true. Except for the fact that it reduces the oiliness, it did not.. 

If it is possible to find a 100% pure organic skin care, I would love to try it out and since the ingredients listed contained no chemical and all the bla bla bla things, it really captivate my heart and trick my mind to buy it immediately.. :p As for the fragrance, it has tea tree smell which is okay for me since I'd use tea tree oil before. Nothing much. 

This come with a small bottle of 5ml and a dropper. For me, it is very hygienic.  I use 1 drop or 2 drop for whole face. And it is very oily. But don't you worry, as oily as how it appears to be, it absorbs pretty quickly. But my suggestion is to use this serum in the night time or you might look like orang minyak in day time. Seriously.. 

The oil is clear as you can tell.

I love this filthy lil' thing because of the ability to combat my acne and keep it under control. It really does reducing my acne appearance and the scars within 2 nights of usage!! I've been using this for nearly 2 weeks now and the scars are almost gone.. How cool is that?? I am seriously excited! 

As for the absorption.. Yes.. It is well absorbed by my pillow. Kidding.  and truth to be told is that, don't you be surprise upon seeing your face first thing in the morning after using this serum. Why? Because of the organic ingredients in it, it will make your skin look healthier and glowing hence enhancing the beautiful beast in you..... Minus all the taik mata and air liur. 

I bought mine in pharmacy at Saratok, Sarawak.. So it cost me RM31. Pretty expensive for a 5ml serum.. But I'd read that you can find this for only 23.90MYR at either Guardian or Watson. 

For the acne sufferers, try this one out. Worth your money!

Stay beautiful! 

Back acne. Wait, what?!

Halo beauties! It's been a while for a beauty entry.. My bad. Yup. sorry! I'll try to catch up what I've been missing, aite? So today, we are going to talk a little bit about acne. To be specific, back acne or jerawat belakang.

What causes back acne?
There is actually quite a few that triggers acne. Most of it, are to be blame on hormonal imbalance and poor dieting styles.

However, some facts that we might not be aware of, are:

Poor hygiene and sweat :
Poor hygiene is about how do we take care of our body, externally.  This means of how you take care of your clothes, especially those who are into sports and also students, not to be forgotten, muslimah that wear hijab.  Don't get me wrong here. Heat from surroundings resulted in excessive production of sweat. And the sweat were trapped on your shirts. Dirt from sweat or of your surrounding is trapped in skins, thus contributing in the production of acne.   And the frictions from your shirts, resulted inflammation on your skin which created opportunity for the bacteris. So, my advise is, do not wear clothes that is too tight, and make sure that the materials are breathable.  When you sweat, please strip, I mean take off your clothes as soon as possible. Do not let your cloth to sit on your skin for at least 30 minutes after you sweat.

Clothing or gear:
Clothing means your cloth, what kind of clothes you are wearing. Undeniable that some clothes designed, were meant to be fashion. But what does fashion mean when you have to suffer from it? Beauty is not necessarily pain, but beauty means comfortable. Clothing that trapped heat, such as polyster and and also some cotton that do not absorb sweat, should be avoided. As mentioned earlier, frictions from your apparels cause break outs to your skin and imagine this. You've been sweating like crazy, but your clothes did not absorb sweat. How many bacteria are there on your skin to waiting in line to cause acne on your back?
If you still want to look stylish or comfy, look for materials that are made from chiffon and another breathable materials. Sports brand that I would recommend are Adidas and Nike.

And gear, refers to any accessories such as back pack, purse strap and lots of it. Rubbing or pressure n skin resulting in inflamed follicles and exacerbate breakouts. Some of it, as such in sling back or purse, especially the girls will cause allergies. And again, inflammation.

Body foam.
Now, there were tons types of body foam.  Most of it are stunningly amazing with beautiful scent. Oops! Wake up gentlemen! Some of the property contained in shower foam does not fit you a.k.a it causes allergy and acne. Body foam isn't about smell all the time. Make sure to look for the anti bacterial property such as Lifebuoy, Protex and SebaMed.

So now, a few of the causes were revealed, moving on to how you tame the acne.
1. Wear loose clothes. Or not too tight and not too big.
2. Take care of your external factors - clothes, bag
3. Use body foam that contain anti bacterial property or salicylic acid or Tea tree.
4. Watch your diet.
5. Exfoliate your skin. If it is possible, use loofah or shower body scrub. Don't scrub too hard ya!
6. Treat your acne. Try T3 back acne body wash and the gel. I could not remember but it is a spray-typed thing.

Goodluck! 

DIY : Lemon Face Toner

Hello beautiful, gorgeous, handsome, and lovelies! Now I'm going to do another skin DIY for you.  Excited? No? Yes? Who cares? *I did*

As you can tell from my tittle up there, we'll be doing a LEMON face toner! Yeayy! But why lemon?? Lemon, ladies and gentlemen contains salicylic acid which helps to combat bacteria on our skin.  This by right referring to the dark and evil acne! Destroy themmmmmm~ Muahaha! =_= I know, it's very stressful to see dark sports on our FACE actually. However, by using lemon, this may help you to lighten the scars and to treat the acne. Another benefit using lemon as your toner is that it improves your pores appearance. Here are things you going to need :

- 1 lemon
- cotton wipes/ball
- a small bowl
- knife

Cut the lemon to half and squeeze the juice to the bowl. Dab some of it into the cotton and apply it with circular motion to your face. Hold on there! Don't be too harsh with your skin. Gentle motions will do. Now, it may sting a bit. No worries!  I suggest that those who have sensitive skin to dilute the lemon juice with a few drops of water. Leave it for 15 minutes or 10, and you may want it to stay on face overnight.  Do this for 2 weeks or 3 days per week and you should see the result.

Oh. Might as well you want to mix it with 2 spoons of honey. This will make a mask and make your face glow in the dark. Kidding. Leave it on for 15 minutes. Trust me, you will have a brighter complexion when you woke up the next morning. Make sure to have small towel nearby. It will drippppppppp.

P/s : Lemon may burn your skin. If this happened, do not be stubborn enough to continue with this routine. Good luck!
