Crème Simon Brightening Detox Multi Benefits Eye Treatment

I love French skincare and haven’t had the chance to try Crème Simon so this was a fantastic surprise! Whats more, this brand is oil free, alcohol free, paraben free, silicone free. Eye treatments are something that is very important to me too because the eye area is so delicate and sensitive. I always believe in prevention. The gel formula is meant to brighten and detoxify “exhausted and tired looking eyes” and “nourish the fragile skin”. Conveniently packaged with a rollerball, there will be no spills or wastage. 2.5ml retails for S$23.

Crème Simon Crème Universelle & Brightening Detox Gentle Double Exfoliation Scrub

I was lucky to get not one but three Crème Simon products in my box. The sweet simple yet girly packaging is a plus for me, on top of it being all natural. I received the Crème Universelle which is the star product based on the 150 year old healing cream to “sooth, relieve, moisturize skin” that can be used for body, hands and feet. It contains Aloe Vera, Sodium Hyaluronte and Shea Butter. The scent and texture is very light. Sounds perfect for my sensitive skin! 30ml retails for S$68.

In my box was also the Gentle Double Exfoliation Scrub. Proper cleansing is an important part of skincare, especially due to the pollutants that we are exposed to daily. This has a creamy texture and contains natural wheat and jojoba beads that exfoliates and revitalizes skin without that drying feeling. Great for the upcoming winter months! 75ml costs S$68.

Benefit Cosmetics They’re Real! Push Up Liner

Oh how I love Benefit minis! They make the cutest minis of their star products. I already have the full sized of this eyeliner in my makeup kit so this will come in handy for travel or for my makeup purse. This gel liner is waterproof, matte black and long wearing. This indeed doesn’t budge at all – No panda eyes! S$38 for 1.4g.

Benefit Cosmetics Stay Dont Stray Primer

This is a primer for eyes, to ensure that concealer and eyeshadow stay put all day. It has a lightweight liquid texture that dries quickly and also brightens the eye area. It could be mistaken for a concealer! The doe-foot applicator wand makes it easy to apply and minimizes wastage. I love the idea of extra radiance to the eye area, we all need that! S$42 for the full sized 10ml.

Physiogel Trial Kit Range

Physiogel has been recommended by my dermatologist and pediatrician. I have been using this brand for many years and it has worked well for my family’s sensitive skin. I would admit the packaging is on the plain side but it works.

My box came with the Cleanser, Lotion and Cream. The Cleanser is very gentle and maintains the skin natural PH. I use the Lotion for my daughter during summer months because its lightweight and maintains sufficient moisture to prevent any skin irritation. I use the Cream for when my skin is parched from too much exposure to dry climates or during the winter months. The Lotion and Cream are great for restoring moisture to the skin when allergic reactions occur and require a barrier to further irritants. The Cleanser is S$34.90 for 900ml, the Lotion is S$60.90 for 400ml and the Cream is S$23.90 for 75ml.

Spectraban Sensitive 30

We are pretty fortunate that there are so many products for managing sensitive skin that it doesn’t feel like such a horrible thing anymore.  Particularly, I find that sunscreen formulas have been come lighter, less oily and more effective.  The Spectraban Sensitive 30 from Stiefel (also makers of Physiogel) is one product I am looking forward to try. The sunscreen is anti UVA, anti UVB, and anti aging, suitable for sensitive skin. S$19.95 for 60g.

Garnier Sakura White Pinkish Radiance Moisturizing Cream

Pink is my weakness so obviously Garnier got it right in attracting my attention 🙂 I received 2 sample packs of the Garnier Radiance Cream, which is a day cream that “hydrates, smoothens, lightens and refines” for skin that “blooms like the Sakura flower” with SPF 21 too! 50ml retails for S$19.90.

Skinbiotics Even+ Whiter

Endorsed by Fann Wong, one of Singapore’s biggest stars and the queen of snowy white complexions, Skinbiotics Even+ Whiter is an oral skin lightening formula designed to give fairer skin, “reduce blemishes and enhance antioxidant defense”. It contains GSH Tripeptide Complex with Gluthathione that helps to lighten complexions after 4 weeks. A box of 21 capsules retails for S$89.  Not for pregnant or lactating mothers, nor children. People with medical conditions should consult their doctors before consuming any supplements.
