Prohibited Skin Care Reviews

Heyla guys! Did you know that DJ Khaled proposed Nicki Minaj few days ago? Nicki has to go for it. I mean like, the diamond ring for $500, 000 , girl you just have to get it. :3 Sorry. But I am a fan of Nicki Minaj too. :3

And I apologise for the blog-post tittle. Well you know.. It sounds a lil' bit commercial that way.. Aren't they? :p
Okay, so I've come again for another review. Aaah. Gentlemen, we just don't know how stop it. Sorry not sorry. One of the best product I have for this month is...... *bdum tsss (drum)* The Body Shop Lip Butter in ChocoMania. 


For those who loves caramel and chocolate. This is the one girl. You just have to have it.  This is the best of the best lip product I've ever used. The smell as I said, is very caramel-ly and chocolate-ey . I feel like eating this lip butter, well literally. At first, the lip butter looked very .. yeah quite hard right? I mean it is in solid state. But as soon as I dip my finger, it melts at our temperature. I guess I am too hot that it melts. :p it is very moisturising and even after your lips is washed because of food and drinks, your lips will stay smooth just  like baby-butt smooth. Seriously.  o.O or maybe it is just me. -_- I got this from The Body Shop for 29.90MYR. It does not leave any colour stain, which is like a clear lip gloss, except for the fact that it is in butter form. Pretty confusing right? I know. I am confused too. :3
Next is my Sunkiller Clear water SPF 50+ from Beautiful Kiss if I am not mistaken. I got this from Watson of the price 15MYR. 
*trust me. This is how the sunscreen looks like.*

Did you know that sunscreen is very important for us? Regardless what gender you are, female, male or unknown. Sunscreen matters the most. Please refer to Michell's Phan video if you don't trust me. :/ So I believe this product I is from Japan (?) . I  am not very sure but I love this sunscreen so much! It is very watery and it does not leaves you skin oily nor it has make you to look obvious that you are actually wearing sunscreen. It blends to your skin tone perfectly. :3 And because of that, I often forgot if I already apply the sunscreen or not. Well you know, you forgot things easily when you are getting old *coughs*


 It claimed to be blemished-free and has that very light feel. Surprising, yes it does what it claimed to be. I was afraid at first because I have acne prone skin, but using this nearly for 2 weeks now, it does its responsibility to protect my skin! Well done Sunkiller! *pats on the bottle*

For the next product is Garnier Dwi Aksi Light Complete Double Action Black Foam. That's mouthful. This is a face wash product that I love very much!



This is a new range that Garnier launched few weeks, or months ago or I don't know.. But normally face wash comes in white or at least in clear form, but this thing is actually in black. Well duh.. It says black foam there. I feel stupid somehow. So this facial foam or face wash cleanse my skin thoroughly! Yes. Thoroughly. It is not like the squeaky clean feeling or making your face feels tight, but it leaves your face moist and refreshed. The foam is like normal foams. Not that rich or thick. A pea size is enough for your entire face or maybe you need more if you're HULK. :p I've tried using this and I did not use any moisturiser after that. It does controls the oil on my face and the morning after I used this, my skin looked as it is glowing and radiant. Or maybe I am just too vain. :3 But Garnier is known for it's whitening property. I used this foam when I had break outs on my skin. I switched my facial foams twice.. Nope. it does not harm my skin. Oh oh.. It smells good too! This one costs below than 10MYR from Guardian or Watson or any of it. -_-

Coming out next is Snail Repairing Foam Cleanser . Okay. So this came as a set from the Mizon Skin Care range I'd review previously. You can refer here to read. Just that I forgot to write it last time. So this foam, come in a pearly white type. 



The foam is veryyyyyyyy rich in texture. I mean like, I use just a pea size, add some water, lather it and voila! It almost looked like Shiseido face foam. It smells nice too despite the fact that the main ingredient is from snail mucus. Yup. SNAIL MUCUS. This foam however does not make my skin looked radiant enough but it does not claimed to do so... So yeah. But it leaves my skin feels good and for a few times I'd used this, my acne scarring fades quite quickly too. or maybe it is because I used the one whole range. :)) Does it smells nice? Of course!! Is there any facial foam smells like fart? Or is it?? o.O But this I respect for its ability to combat the acne and keep it at bay. Hail to you oh snailsssss.. :3

So that's a wrap everyone. Whose doing the slate? Oke.. Hana dul set! (Korean) .. Anyeongggggg! :3

Mizon Snail Cream Review

Hello beautiful! As for today, I'm feeling a lil' bit better.. So here's another review for you. :3

Have you heard of snail? And mucus? And how about snail mucus? On your face? Yup You read it. SNAIL MUCUS ON YOUR FACE. YOUR FACE ! *screams*.  Okay. Exaggeration. Pfft.

In Japan and Korea, snail mucus is used as one of the best facial treatment. It is believed to heal scars and wound and also possess the property of anti-aging. So, I guess that's the Japanese and Koreans secret having a great, blemish free skin. But putting snails mucus on your face, what the hell? To imagine putting it on my face, I feel like dying already.

But lemme introduce you to party people.. In the club.. Yeah.  *pitbull songs in backgroud*  taraaaaaa~ MIZON Function Formula All In One Snail Repair Cream. It is made of 92% snails extract that promised you in healing and resolving skins problem!

So it came with a brownish glass jar or tub or whatever you may call it. I found that the packaging is quite vintage and I love the simplicity. However, I prefer dispenser rather than having to dip my finger into the tub to which I found that it is not hygienic..   At the back of the glass jar, it is all written in Hangul (Korean writing) and I couldn't read it. But here's what I have found in the website :
  • Increases the reproduction of skin and absorb the active components into inside and makes the skin live.
  • Cleans the darkness and trouble marks thoroughly and make the whole face clearly. 
  • Removes the waste matters of pores and tight them. 
  • Supplies the moisture and nutrition and keeps the skin smooth and healthy. 
  • Fill the skin finely and makes the skin which has vitality and tight. 
  • Non-paraben, non- artificial color, non- artificial scents.
  • Ingredients: Snail Secretion 92%, Centella Asiatica, Adenosine, Peptide, β-glucan, Greentea Extract, Hysluronic acid, Betula Platyphylla Japonica Juice , Dimethicone, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Hydrogenated vegetable oil.
 Pretty promising aren't they? Here's how the cream looks like:


 The consistency is quite thick itself but believe me, if you apply evenly on your skin, you will feel as you did not at all putting any cream on your face. As how it claimed to contain 92% of snails mucus, this cream does not smell gross or awful or smells like the snail. How does snail smells like? Have anyone tried smelling snails?? o.O But having to imagine that snail mucus is on your face, yeahhhh. That feeling. I couldn't describe. And also, this cream does not have any scent and for those who fancy nice cream smell, I don't recommend this.

My skin condition : I have combination skin. Oily + dry + acne prone.

My impression:
- It claimed to heal trouble skin. Yes. I agree with that. I have acne scarring previously. And this cream is my life saver I would say. My skin revitalises and it gives me that glowing and supple and moist skin. I love it!

- It heal my acne scarring! Yeayyyyyy! My dark spot due to acne scars slowly faded and now is almost the same as my skin tone. Previously, I had cystic acne. So my face has that quite deep pitted hole. But it improves hell a lot and now my skin is almost near perfect!!

- Did I mentioned that my skin is an oily type? Well no. This cream doesn't make my skin oily as how you would see the consistency of the cream. What it does is, it absorbs onto your skin thoroughly if you massage well enough. At first, you might experienced stickiness, but in a few minutes, it will settle down on your skin. So no worry about that.. :)

Another product that also came with this cream is  Snail Recovery Gel Cream! Also fro the same range.. This is how it looks like :




It came in a pink tube. Cute .. I know rite? :p The tube has made the job easier for I can control the amount of gel that I desire. The lid is actually sealed with a foil (?) or I can't remember how do we call that thing. But I love the quality of it. Since it is a gel.. I use this after the cream. And it mattify my skin and settle the whole thing down. As far as I can remember, this gel is not as sticky as the cream, it is very light weight and it contains 74% of snails filtrate. Awesome right? Double healing power I've got for myself. :p
Another additional info that I got from other website is this :
 A gel-type moisturizer, designed to be a final 'sealing step in a multi-layer skincare regimen but it's wonderful on it's own too. It contains 74% snail filtrate and better for wrinkle care!

Okay-okay. I am 21. It's too early for wrinkle I would say.. But it's much better to make an early step rather than whining and complaining in latter. Am I right ladies? :3

My impression:
- After using the cream, I use the gel as my final step. Firstly, my skin feels tight. Well maybe that's because it is gel right? But after a while, it has blend together with the cream. So no oily or sticky feeling.
- This gel has no snail scent. And scent free. Double bonus for those who don't fancy fragrance in skin care.
- It does make my blemishes and also acne scars fade. :3 How contented I am with that... :D

I've also got 4 Baroness mask that I've got as free gift.. But I haven't tried any.. So, I will let you know soon eh?

So will I buy this product again? Yes I will!! I am so happy the result.. But as how it is almost in natural content, I don't expect this to show a better result in just weeks. So stay tune for any update eh? Bye lovelies!!

This stuffs I actually got from DeBeauteLamour. Check them out for special promotions and great stuffs!

 Bare face. No filter. And actually with cream and gel on. Notice the blemishes I Had? It is now still recovering. Thanks to this skin care range. I love you snailsssss. I mean snail cream. :P
