My Review
DD Cream?? This is the first time I heard of this cream. My first reaction is, ''huh....another new alphabet again!" Lol ...There is AA powder, BB Cream, CC Cream...now DD Cream...hmm.....

It got me curious and thanks to Beauty Keeper(美麗掌櫃), I get to try this new makeup cream that does dynamic defence besides the usual blemish and correction effect. 

Userism D.D. Cream SPF50 Dynamic All-Daily Defence is a product that comes from Taiwan. I quite like the packaging, very classy and artistic. It can be seen from the box to the tube itself.

The cream comes in light ivory color. It just looks like creamy liquid foundation.
How the D.D Cream looks like.
One thing I like about this D.D. Cream is that it is really easy to apply and blend evenly on my skin. I am a lazy women so I usually like things that is quick and easy. This D.D. Cream allows me to complete application in just less than 1 minute. 

For me, I like simple, light and natural. So every morning I just apply this D.D. Cream as my foundation. Nothing else and it does balance out my skin texture, makes it look smoother and healthy. And most importantly, natural. 

But if you like, after this D.D Cream, you may apply your usual powder foundation or loose powder for a finishing touch.

For me, it does last me long enough though out the day.

And I am glad that it protects my skin from the sun too. 
Before and after experiment on my hand.
(Not sure if I captured it properly in the picture. But I personally saw it turns smooth and even out naturally.)

The cap was also sealed with plastic. That's always what I like most as I know its not opened by anyone before. Good hygiene. :)
Sealed with plastic.

The creamy textured scrub is light brown in color with little black or orange particles inside. Glade to know that these particles are from the natural ingredients used, not artificial.
How the scrub look liked.
Little black or orange particles inside from its natural ingredients.
It produces a very light almond smell. The similar smell from the lotion of the same range. Smell really good to me, just nice and not too strong. 

During scrubbing, the scrub does not feel sticky or oily. There will not be white particles form like the face scrub. I can only feel the little black or orange particles of the scrub on my skin. The particles is strong enough yet not too rough.

Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers. 

My mum have a great Mother's Day Celebrating with Sasa SG over High Tea. How is your Mother's Day?

On 10 May 2017, My Mum and I went for an enjoyable Mother's Day Celebration with Sasa SG + Jannassa and Mum over High Tea + Makeup Challenge Workshop held at Fullerton Hotel, Post Bar.
Event is at Post Bar in Fullerton Hotel.
I have always wanted to bring my mum for Tai Tai Type of High Tea but always cannot find one that is cheap and delicious in order not to let my mum worry about my wallet. Thanks to Sasa SG, I am able to fulfill this wish in a High Class Hotel on the house. 

My mum is all dress up and happily enters the beautiful Fullerton Hotel. Off we go for High Tea and makeup workshop. :)
My Mum is all dress beautifully for the event.
This is the first time my mum and I came to Post Bar at Fullerton Hotel. The post bar feels classy and comfortable. 
Beautiful Post Bar.
Once we were there, we were brought to our seats with a customized card saying "To Ivy's Beautiful Mum", a black beauty box worth S$1000 and 2 beautiful flowers on the table. 
Customized card, Beauty Box and flowers.
I have to admit, my attention change immediately from admiring the Post Bar environment to looking at the beauty box on the table. So is my mum. LOL...Well, I will let you all see what is inside later.
All eyes on this Beauty Box.
The celebration starts off with the Makeup Challenge Beauty Workshop. We were told to makeup our mum beautifully using the products given in the beauty box followed by photo taking. Hehehe....I am given the offical approval here to "paint" my mum's face....:p...something she always refused to let me do at home as my mum don't like to makeup. :/

Sasa SG and sponsors are really generous here. The S$1000 beauty box is sure heavy to carry. But it's surely a happy burden to carry home. :D

The rosy pink moisture dew is transparent and do not feels sticky when apply. It has an essential oil texture. 
Transparent.
The product came in a roller ball. I just need to roll it over my lip to apply. 
Came with a roller.
The moisture dew gave a very light pink to my lip. It looks natural on my lip and feels moisturize too. The best part is that different people will produce different shades of pink after using. Uniquely your color only. :)

Gave a very light pink.
But one con is that the color does not last long on my lip. I will need to re-apply as needed frequently. 

Oh oh...one more thing, its able to be use for areola and private parts too.
