SK II Facial Treatment Mask Review

Omg I literally just used the SK-II Facial Treatment Mask just an hour ago after I cleansed my face, and here I am, an hour later, penning down my review. THAT IS HOW MUCH I LOVE IT.

During the recent Luxola sale, I jumped on the chance to get my hands on the Pitera Essence Set which consists of: a 75ml SK-II FTE, 30ml Facial Clear Lotion and a piece of Facial Treatment Mask. All for SGD99 before discount! It's a really good deal as a 75ml SK-II FTE already cost SGD99 on its own. Okay so no pictures of the me or the product as I excitedly ripped open the box upon receiving my item, and excitedly ripped off the package to use the mask.

Honestly, I had 0 expectations for the mask because after using the FTE for close to a week, I didn't see any obvious change to my skin texture, perhaps just slightly more hydrated. I just did my usual routine and slapped on some GlamGlow Youth Mud for 10 mins, use my Alpha H Liquid Gold to tone my skin, then applied the SK-II mask as instructed. Firstly, I must say that the cotton mask is thick and of high quality and the essence contained in the packet is sooo generous. It fits my face shape really well too! And I usually have some problems with face masks because they usually don't fit my face shape very well... so I am very impressed. I think I left it on for about 20 mins because there was so much essence that is too precious to be wasted! There was also a good amount left in the packet so I put in my low quality face mask (sobs) that doesn't really fit my face, sealed it up and put it back in the fridge, ready for a second use.

What won me over was the effect after just a mere 20 mins. My face was clearly well hydrated from within, very plumped up (boing boing), somewhat lifted and very dewy! I patted the remaining essence into my face and my skin felt very nice to touch. I had a few blind pimples that grew over the week, and although they have flattened and popped on their own, there was still some pigmentation and redness :( But my face was very refreshed and the redness became only very minimal. There was still a lot of essence absorbed in the mask so I squeeze those out and applied it all over my neck, arms and thighs!

I cannot emphasise how much I love it. I proceeded to tell all my friends how the mask was the bomb and if anyone is going to get anything from SK-II, this is a must. What else can I say but I AM SOLD! SK-II TAKE ALL MY MONEY!

I rarely use or rave about facial masks because I don't usually experience any miracles with them and I'm already contemplating on getting the 6 or 10 pc pack, that is how much I love it. I supposed you're able to get about 2 usages out of 1 pack if you have additional blank cotton face masks at home. If you're actually hesitating on whether you should get this, hesitate no further! Run out and get it now! Or if you're wondering which SK-II product should you invest in (and you already have a skincare routine that you love), I would highly recommend this as it is a really good perk-me-up for the skin!

Till next time,

2014, thus far

It's been too long since the last proper post. I did post irregularly a few times but I've decided to clean up this space for a fresh start!

Biggest milestone achieved this year would be, I've finally GRADUATED! Of course with that being said the graduation ceremony would only be held next year because, private uni. I haven't gone for a graduation trip as well since I've been working on the online business since exams ended. Let's hope that we'll be able to plan something at the end of the year! And this just reminded me that we were at Bali last year around this time, bummer.

I have also started accumulating new skincare and makeup over the past few months, hence I've decided to 'restart' my blog to pen down reviews and share the love for the products, which worked for me, with more people! The closet can hardly fit my growing collection anymore... Oh and I have also just ordered new Laneige trouble relief skincare from Luxola a few hours ago. Haha I blame the promotional discount and my accumulated points.

I don't know how long can I keep up with this, but I hope I can. I promise an upcoming skincare/makeup post next!

2012

3rd week into the first month of the year and it had been pretty good. Keeping my fingers crossed for a good year ahead! Scrap the new year resolutions shit 'cuz I don't ever keep them. 2011 wasn't awesome at all but I have an inkling that this year's gonna be good :> Although I know it's still quite early to say so.. I've been having very fulfilling weekends and I hope that this would continue throughout the year! School is like mehhhh-ish because prelims are in late Feb, and the actual (make it-or-break it) exams will start in early May. SIGH I feel so unprepared but I'm just gonna give it my best shot. It's 2k worth of money and I'm not gonna let that go down the drain. Hardcore studying start after CNY (ties white headband around forehead)! This blog is so boring.. I can't believe I'm here or if anyone is ever gonna read what I've typed but oh well I'll still salvage it. Somehow.

Compiled a list of my current favourite songs here:

Don't judge! I'm not a Twilight fan (MUST SAY FIRST AH) but I really love this song. Totally suitable for Twilight, NOT.

I don't know about you but I bet I'm gonna go like OMG K-POP?! Haha can't believe I'm listening to a little of k-pop now.. HOWEVER, you can't deny how hot these korean stars look.. I'm bloody inferior watching the MTVs 'cuz they're like so goddamn pretty. Can I have a sharper nose, bigger eyes and smaller face too God? (pouts)

Lastly, a catchy and uplifting song!

Have a good week ahead, whoever's reading this space!

Ending off with an over-exposed picture of myself 'cuz I no look like Korean star :( Nah I kid! It's because I can finally wink and take a picture without looking like I just had spasms.

Lots of love! x

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

I haven't been here for the longest time ever, but I'm good :> I shall start blogging here once again if I ever feel like it haha, because I'm happier at my private space now hehe. Christmas this year was awesome for me and I hope that 2011 will end with a blast too! Shall post a few pictures to spice up this space..

Have a blessed Christmas! x
