My skin is able to absorb the serum very fast and my subsequent skin care products works even better applying it after these serum.

I especially like the Hyaluronic Acid Serum. Just what my skin needs. But these serum are too expensive for me though. :(

However for Placenta Serum, can't really see a different for the benefit sadly.

Review: Calecim Moisturising Cream

Calecim Moisturising Cream (15g)
Today review is on Calecim Moisturising Cream. 

Overall, when just use, the moisturizer did make my skin feel smooth and moisturize after use. However after few weeks of use, the moisturizer did prove too oily for my combination skin. Also I don't really like the smell of it. Perhaps its more suitable for aging skin.

My Review
Thanks to SampleStore, I get to know another new product brand. This is the first time I heard and use product from Calecim.

The sample was pretty generous and nicely pack. Its pack in a nice quality container in a silver box.
Sample box
Moisturizing cream place in this nice container.
The moisturizer itself has a liquid like creamy texture that is a little yellowish white in color. Although it says the moisturizer is fragrance free, it does contain some kind of a smell. I don't quite like the smell. >-<
Plastic cover for hygiene purpose.  
The moisturizing cream is a little yellowish white in color.
Smell aside, the moisturizer is not sticky and not oily to touch. But soon I realize although my fingers don't find it oily, my face find them oily. How so?
Liquid like creamy texture
In the first few days of my use, my skin do feel smooth and moisturize after using.  Everything feels so good and well.

But from then on, my skin feels more and more oily after applying and eventually blemish starts to appear. It backfire!

Well, I think it is not that suitable for my combination skin. Maybe it will score a better result sheet for aging skin?

And one more thing, it does feel too expensive to me. :(

Review: Faith in Face Hydrogel Masks

Faith in Face Hydrogel Masks (25g x 3sheets)
Today review is on Faith in Face Hydrogel Masks. Thanks to Faith in Face and SampleStore.com for sending them to me. 

Overall, I am really impressed by these Faith in Face Hydrogel Masks. It is able to help hydrate, smooth and brighten my dull and tired looking skin. The hydrogel mask sheet itself is really something different from the normal cotton mask sheet I used. I like it very much as the nutrients or ingredients on the hydrogel mask can really be absorbed by my stubborn skin easily and quickly. The results can be seen instantly too.

Its the right supplement that I finally found for my skin and I really recommend them to you although the price may be a little high to some. But I really think its worth it. 

Faith in Face Hydrogel Masks Summary
Faith in Face is the No 1 Hydrogel Mask Brand currently in Korea. It was first launched in 2012 by a team of multi national young cosmetic experts from Korea, Britain and Canada after 3 years of research and development. 

And I am so glad that its finally here in Singapore!!! Yeah!!!

The Story.
What is written about Nourish Me Hydrogel Mask on the box.

Details of the 3 variants that will be review in this post.

How to use Faith in Face Hydrogel Masks?
This Faith In Face mask is divided into top and bottom part of the mask as well as smooth and textured surface of the mask. 

So you will need to be careful to apply the smooth surface to your face. Otherwise applying textured surface to face may cause discomfort. If so switch over to smooth side. 

Steps to use:
  1. After cleansing, carefully remove the thinner protective film from both the top and bottom mask to exposed the smooth surface.  
  2. Apply the smooth side of the masks to your face. 
  3. Remove the thicker protective film and adjust fit on top and bottom masks to the curves of your face. 
  4. After 30 minutes, remove the mask and discard. 
  5. Gently pat your face with fingertips to help skin absorb the remaining essence.

My Review
Thanks to Faith in Face and SampleStore.com for sending me 3 variants of the Faith In Face Hydrogel Masks to try.

Hmm.....Hydrogel mask. This is the first time I use Hydrogel mask. Really excited how it will perform on my stubborn and troubled skin. :)

Each box of Faith In Face Hydrogel Mask comes in a box of 3 sheets of 1 variant. 
Came in a box of 3 sheets of 1 variant.
Each of mask packet looks really pretty and different. There is cute story to each packet. So before I used them, I'm really attracted to it. So much so that I really read what is on it. :)
After Shower Look Hydrogel Mask
Black And White Film Star Hydrogel Mask
Nourish Me Hydrogel Mask
This faith In Face mask is a little different from those mask that I usually used. This mask is divided into 2 parts, top and bottom.
Opening the packet of the mask.
Mask divided into 2 parts: Top and Bottom portion.
Apart from that, it is the first time I see that mask have 2 different surface. Usually I just need to remove the plastic film and just place it on my face regardless of which is the right side. But for this Hydrogel mask, I need to be careful to put only the smooth side on my face. 
Smooth surface of the hydrogel mask to be place on face.
Textured surface of the hydrogel mask.
And for this, Faith In Face actually did a good job. The smooth side is place with a thinner protective film while the textured side is place with a thicker protective film. So I will never go wrong. :) But even if I am wrong, I will feel uncomfortable. So I will just need to turn it around.
3 sheets (From top to bottom):
Thin Protective film, Hydrogel mask, Thick Protective film.
Thin protective film placed on the smooth surface of the mask.
Thick protective film placed on the textured surface of the mask.
Lets go on to the hydrogel mask. The hydrogel mask has a gel like texture. It feels jelly jelly to me. Not like those normal mask I usually use. 

What I also like is that there is no essence dripping from the mask when I remove it from the packet. All the essences are lock onto the hydrogel mask. Not messy at all. :)

The essence on the hydrogel mask is also not oily. But feels a little sticky to me.

The mask is gel like in texture. Therefore it look transparent when place on my face. 
Gel like texture mask looked transparent on my face.
One thing I realize is that the mask feel cooling during application. Note that I did not place the mask in the refrigerator. Usually normal mask feels cooling during application because I place it in the refrigerator. But this hrdrogel mask came with a natural cooling feel. So comfortable that I nearly fall asleep. :)

Another thing I realize is the hydrogel mask turns thinner towards the end of the application when I am about to take it off my face. This really shows that my skin is absorbing all the goods on the hydrogel mask. 
Hydrogel mask looks thicker when just apply.
Hydrogel mask looks thinner just when I am about to remove it.
After taking off the mask, I like it that there is no lots of access essence left on my face. No messy essence and no sticky feel. My daily regimen is absorbed even better.

I have used all 3 variants of the mask given to me. Before I go through how each of the variant performed. I realize the different in color of the mask, blue, white and orange.

This variant of the mask is the one I like most of all the 3 variants I tried. 

My face really feel instantly hydrated and smooth after using. Just what my skin is really lack of.

Black And White Film Star Hydrogel Mask
My face feel smooth and slightly brighten up after use. 

Also redness on my face is reduced too. 
Before
After
Nourish Me Hydrogel Mask
While, this mask is nourish me. So its suppose to work like those supplement we eat. But this time round its supplement in the form of mask for the skin. 

So 1 application may not see much effect apart from the basic function, smooth and moisturize. So I guess I need more application to justify it's real performance.
