I recently did a little decluttering and got rid of some things that just weren't working for me anymore. I also picked up a few new skincare goodies I've been wanting to try, so I thought I'd share what's new with my skincare routine!
A few weeks ago, I grabbed a facial scrub from Syahirah skincare. Syahirah is a Malaysian brand you can find in most drugstores here, and their products are halal, which is such a nice touch for Muslim consumers.
I got the Syahirah Korean Secrets Hydra Soft Facial Scrub. It costs around RM13.90 for 100g, and there's also a smaller 50g size for about RM6.90.
I picked up this scrub because I ran out of my old one. The packaging simply caught my eye, and I was also intrigued by the "Korean Secrets" label and the fact that it's made in Korea. Korea's skincare game is pretty serious, so I was curious to try it.
The scrub has tiny beads that are really gentle on the skin. It feels a lot like the Organic Aid scrub I used before. It hasn't irritated my skin or caused breakouts, and it leaves my face feeling clean but not tight. It’s pretty hydrating, just like the name suggests.
One thing I noticed online is that it contains methylparaben and propylparaben, which I usually try to avoid. But the product I bought didn't list these, so maybe they changed the formula? I might need to check with them about this. Overall, I’m liking it so far!
I also picked up a serum—Wardah C-Defense with Vitamin C. Wardah is a local brand that's new to the market. I've tried their lipsticks and liked them, so I was excited to try this serum. It's about RM32 for 17ml.
After just one day of using it, I thought it might be helping shrink my pimples. Now that I've been using it for about a week, I can see my pimples are getting smaller, my skin feels smoother, and it's less oily. I think I've found a new favorite!
nothing new in my skincare routine, just becoming so lazy nowadays to even scrub my face -.-
ReplyDeleteOnce or twice a week is all you really need. If you've been slacking in your skincare routine and still have a nice, flawless skin, you're so lucky! I really can't skip any of my routine though
DeleteJust bought PURE BEAUTY Pure Beauty White & Bright Day Lotion SPF 20 and White & Bright Night Cream.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it's just me, or the products don't really suit me because I can feel that a pimple is going to pop out! T_T
The reason why I bought these are because my skin feels a little bit dry. After trying these products, especially the day lotion, my skin becomes quite shiny. Sometimes oily to dry :(
Maybe because of hormones. I guess.
Pure Beauty skincare is quite impressive babe. I really like it but whatever that works for me, may or may not work on you. That's just how our skin are made of. I'd say just give it a try for a month or two more and see if there's any positive changes. Sometimes it depends on the range of product too, there's just so many factors. Just stay hydrated lah, don't forget to drink enough water k it's very important xx
DeleteTo have new skincare meaning to have new routine meaning you have to be rajin enough and I'm not that rajin haha. But I do plan to have new skincare though
ReplyDeleteI have to be rajin babe lol I am aiming to be pimple-free sebenarnya. Really nak jaga muka, maintain dengan routine and drink lots of water hehe :D
