I got an uncountable amount of cleansers… At least five, I think. But there’s always one or two that I always go back to and there’s one or two which is an absolutely favourite and will never mind to repurchase and will cry and cringe if it’s been discontinued!

I guess you all know how I feel and how I think, right? Hee~

As I grow older, my skin is going from super oily–> oily–> slightly dry–> kinda dry. Items that used to HG sometimes make my skin flakes because of the oil controlling properties Kinda sad, but oh well, part of life.

So now my skin reaches the stage of it being oily on T-zone and chin, but slightly dry on the cheek and got a bit of dry patch on the forehead too! I don’t use such strong oil control products anymore for fear of making my skin flakes, it’s very visible when I have makeup on, but no so when I go bare face.

Anyway, I think retaining moisture on your skin starts with washing with the correct cleanser. Not necessarily it must make your skin extra plump with moisture or anything, but at least, it doesn’t strip moisture off your skin making dry and tout after cleansing!

I had been wanting to review this for ages, but never really gotten around it. Finally when I wanted to review it, Ning also requested for it. Better do it fast ’cause I don’t know when I’m gonna be lazy and stop writing again!

Long story cut short, this is a product which is meant for dry skin. Aloe vera, as we know, it’s well known for it’s softening and hydrating properties. In the olden days, me mum used to cut aloe veras that she planted at home, and apply it on her skin. It calms her skin and left her skin soft and well hydrated. Well, that’s what she told me anyway. I can’t say it works for everyone because I think most people now don’t it anymore, neither do I!

I don’t have aloe veras now at home, so if I wanna use them, I’ll need to get skincare that contains them!

I bought this last year and have been pretty happy with it ever since.

After reviewing the toner from the Star White Series, I thought I’d give the emulsion a write up too. I bought this Emulsion together with it actually. Xin, next time I buy the essence ya!

The emulsion comes in a classy bottle packaging, which it isn’t good for travelling >_<. I think I’ll break it some day! Unlike the toner, this comes in a pump bottle!

The liquid is pretty runny and not that thick. Unlike some stupid silly emulsion I was using before, comes in a glass bottle but the emulsion was so thick that it’s so hard to get the product out! And it’s not even a pump bottle! Gah! %(*&^(&)(*)(_&***$#$&
