Latest : Dermalogica FITE program, Vichy Essentielles Rose Skincare, Strivectin SD skincare, Diorshow 360 Mascara, Victoria Jackson makeup

January 29, 2011 Paris B 19 Comments

Saturday, Ladies! We made it through the week! 😀

I’m having a pre-Chinese New Year lunch with a bunch of friends today. Tossing “yee sang” for lots of good luck in the coming year yo! 😀 Are you out doing any last minute shopping? I was snapping up cookies and oranges at the last minute yesterday. Tiring business, preparing for Chinese New Year 😛

Anyway on with the programme!

Dermalogica FITE programme

dermalogica fite hero products

Dermalogica fights the good FITE (Financial Independance Through Entrepreneurship). Purchase any one of the 5 Dermalogica hero products in the special packaging shown and Dermalogica will donate US$1 to help provide microfinancing to up to 25,000 women worldwide. It is a step to help women be more independant and give them a leg up in their businesses. I think its a noble cause.

Its not an empty pledge because YOU the customer, will be the one who determines which field you want your fund to go to. There is a special bar code you key into the website at www.joinfite.org to redeem your contribution. Available at all Dermalogica distributors and Aster Spring salons nationwide, the 5 hero products are the Daily Microfoliant, PreCleanse, Skin Hydrating Booster, Total Eye Care and Intensive Eye Repair. If you are a Dermalogica user, there is no better time to give back and help another woman stand on her feet financially 🙂

Vichy Essentielles Rose Skincare range

vichy essentielles rose skincare

I like a few things from Vichy but I know some people think its a little pricey for something from the pharmacy. So Vichy has come up with an introductory range of essential skincare targeted at the budget conscious consumer 🙂 Infused with Rose polyphenols and paraben free it is a basic line of skincare for all skin types. Your first Vichy as it were. Prices are between RM20-40 which is terribly affordable!

Strivectin SD revamps the eye cream and stretch mark cream and introduces a facial scrub

new strivectin sd

Strivectin SD made a name for themselves in skincare when women found that the stretch mark cream did wonders for ironing out wrinkles and fine lines on their face and around their eyes. I tried the old formula a while ago. It worked for me. Strivectin SD has now changed their packaging and revamped the formula so its now more effective. They have also printed the expected results from first use and a week and thereafter. I think that’s great. Its testimony to just how effective their product is 🙂

There is also a new addition to the line – a facial scrub. Now that promises to be interesting 🙂

Diorshow 360° Rotating Mascara

diorshow 360 rotating mascara

We’ve had the age of the vibrating mascara. Now check out the rotating mascara from Dior, new in Spring 2011. The mascara wand rotates to help coat your lashes with the Diorshow mascara and add length and volume. Most intriguing!

Retail price: RM128

Victoria Jackson – New makeup brand

A new makeup brand that will be making its rounds here in Malaysia is Victoria Jackson. Most of the makeup comes in kits like the one you see – the Survival Kit (RM150 for members and RM186 non members) with 10 eyeshadows, 5 lipsticks, 2 blushes, 2 liners, mascara and applicators, in one compact case. It will be mostly sold via roadshows in shopping malls and offices and selected beauty stores.

Have you spotted any of the above yet? Barring the Victoria Jackson cosmetics which will be seen later in February 2011, most are already available in store so you’d have likely spotted it or even tried them. I tried the Dermalogica MultiActive mist toner once thanks to a sample from a friend and I really liked it! Unfortunately its not part of the FITE program but the Precleanse is and I hear that’s good too!

Enjoy your weekend everyone!

    I remember reading about “Victoria Jackson make up scams” – a quick search in google will bring up loads of results – a couple of years back on the internet (most of the complaints having to do with their hard sell tactics, rather than quality of the products it must be said). I wonder it if there is any truth to that especially since it is stated that it will be sold via “roadshows”. She claims to be the #1 Hollywood make up artist and if that’s true, wouldn’t it be strange to use this selling tactic? Other make up artists (e.g. Jemma Kidd and Lisa Eldrige) tend to either do collaborations with known brands or distribute via stockists rather than sending reps out on the streets.

      I’ve read about those too but as you have also pointed out, it was more about the pushy sellers than about the quality of the products. I don’t know just how it will be sold here other than through roadshows, but I do hope we don’t see pushy sellers too. I detest them as much as the next person 😉 Oh and I still have no idea who she is 😛

    Aaah this is awesome! I’m a user of Dermalogica products (My cleansers, toner, day eye cream night cream are by them) and I do happen to use Precleanse, Daily Microfoliant and Total Eye Care! 😀 Thanks for the information!

    When will this programme last until, though?

      I think the programme is on for the whole year and its great to know that since you’re using the products already, you can contribute when you replenish! 😉

      I’m told that it’ll be sold by way of roadshows but I haven’t had news of where they’d be yet. You could try following their facebook page to see if they update http://www.facebook.com/pages/Victoria-Jackson-Cosmetics-Malaysia/148203088549240

    I got a whole bunch of Victoria Jackson makeup (2 or 3 palettes(don’t remember, they are somewhere deep in one of the drawers ;P, a bronzer in a brush and a look book) last year from the UK for only GBP30 (about RM150), and I have to say that they are actually quite good. I wouldn’t say it’s the best, but their colors come in a wide variety, travel-friendly handy packaging, eyeshadow color pay-off moderate la….but for the price I got in GBP….can’t complain la… 😉

      Nice to know they aren’t bad products Vonvon! I haven’t tried them out myself but I have read about the pushy sales tactics overseas so hopefully it wouldn’t be the same here.

    I run miles away from Victoria Jackson booths set up in train stations. Like literally walk around the building to avoid them because they don’t let up! When someone’s that desperate, I smell rat and I flee 😛

      Well its a dollar each but I get where you’re coming from 🙂 Its a start I suppose since Dermalogica products seem to be quite popular here.

    Loved Victoria Jackson’s Survival Kit! It seems so easy to carry around in your purse and it’s inexpensive. I wonder about its quality though.

    i used the precleanse before and i absolutely love it! actually, dermalogica has many really good products… but their efficacy seem to only work for while only on me… 2 years tops, i think. so, nowadays, i would only get one or two of their products once in awhile when i feel gatal to replace any current ones i have. i love their skin prep scrub, i love their hydrating mist and i love their dermal clay cleanser 🙂

I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskinca I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskincare Aura Manuka Honey Mask. It blew my mind away! Soothes skin. Boosts hydration and just makes you feel like you have the best skin ever! Not kidding. If you have a spot or irritated skin, it calms it down and helps get rid of your spots too. Honey is anti bacterial after all, so it’s a great multitasker. 
I also love the Manuka Honey Skin brightening Day Cream. It’s light but creamy and sinks into the skin. I’ve reviewed them both on the blog in the past. If you run a search for Antipodes, you’d also notice how much I love the brand! 😁
I’m super late with this but if you’re planning to purchase any of these 3 Manuka honey items from TNS Skinlab, the code MYWSTUFF10 will give you an extra 10% off (until tomorrow 31 Dec) I highly recommend grabbing the Aura mask. You’ll never want to be without (I always have a backup!) 
Thanks for the gift @tnsskinlab and I must apologise for my tardiness 😩 I’ll learn to cope better from next week! 
Now I have to scuttle and write my year end musings. Some traditions must be kept! 😜

It’s my first year doing retail and honestly, I’d never been so busy! The year-end rush is unreal! But busy is good, right? At least that’s what I tell myself 😂
While I pack up gift boxes of treats for doggies 🐶 (I’ve tied so many ribbons I’ve finally started to get it right!) #loccitanemalaysia makes it easy to shop for humans 😅 at experienceloccitane.com with their L’Occitane en Demande service. Place your order, and pick up in store or have it delivered. 
Had a bit of breather today and put together a little video. Blink and miss my little monster 🐶 helping me shop! Not sponsored but I did receive a gift from L’Occitane, for which my sun-exposed, dry dog-walking skin thanks you! 
Haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. It has only just struck me that it’s but mere days away! 😨 Have you done yours?
