I have previously talked about the foundation, the Estee Lauder Double Wear Light, and how much I really liked its finish and longevity. Its no wonder then that when I was having a serious bout with hormonal breakouts that I turned to its concealer cousin. I ran as fast as I can to the nearest counter now that I look back, because during that time, I was preparing for my engagement photos! No pressure right?
A bit of a different post today. I woke up this morning not feeling well after spending the night waking up every hour, on the hour while being plagued with strange dreams (in my dream i was also sick lol..)
Hello ladies (and any gents?). Can you believe its mid-September??? Soon it will be snowing outside and the christmas shopping will begin. *shudder*
Don't get me wrong. I love buying things. Sometimes too much. My husband jokingly calls me a hoarder because I like to have multiple of things. I hate running out of something I use daily! Please tell me I'm not alone in my hoarding ways...
The Japanese has done it again! Honestly, their skincare is the BOMB. And so cheap too! Today I'm going to talk about a sunscreen I have been using for a good 3 months now and I am super satisfied and happy I found it. I bought this sunscreen while I was shopping in Tokyo in the basement floor of an Electronics store (yah i know!), of all places. Actually the store was the entire building and each floor sold something specific (i.e. one floor just for tvs, another just for cellphones, etc etc.)
But I digress, the basement level had all these wonderful beauty items! Here take a look.

Back in June, I visited Japan for my honeymoon. One of the fervent wishes I had for this trip was to purchase some serious Japanese skincare. If you have been reading this blog since its birth in March you would probably already have an idea how skincare obsessed I am. Anyway, along we came to this department store called Keio. They had many high-end brands in the beauty floor and I quickly ran to the SK-II counter to get a one-on-one consultation. In that consultation, the SA used a device to take a close up picture of my face. I'm not really sure how it works but after the device performed a skin analysis, my skin's health is shown in different percentages. Let me just sum up the results as poor. *sigh*
Sadly, I was told that my skin's age was 30, which really in the grand scheme of things, is not that old. Yet, it really made me sad because I wasn't 30 yet.... good marketing? to make me buy things? haha well it worked.
