dr. sam's flawless brightly serum

I’ve tried a few Dr. Sam’s skincare products over the years since she launched her line, and I have to say that I have rather enjoyed most of them. I’m currently using the Flawless Cleanser and still loving it (and planning to get backups/refills) because it’s such a simple cleanser that just works.

I recently picked up the Dr. Sam’s Flawless Brightly serum, because I’m a bit of a sucker for trying new things, and anything that promises to brighten my skin is worth a shot! 😀

The thing is that the Flawless Brightly serum promises to do so much more!

Loving the quirky name of the Mad Hippie Triple C Night Cream but loving the texture even more!

When I ran out of the last cream I enjoyed using, that I felt made a difference to my skin, I felt a little morose. I always get a little sad when I finish a product that I enjoy, yet I enjoy trying new things. So, it’s a little debate I have with myself each time – do I repurchase, or do I try something new.

Often, I opt to try something new 😛 Why mess with a winning formula, you may ask? Because I’m a glutton for punishment, I guess 😛

But it’s always nice when you do try something new, and it works out well, which is the case with the Mad Hippie Triple C Night Cream.

Best sunscreen in the market? We take the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen SPF50+ for a test

Many years ago, I came across mention of the Blue Lizard sunscreen. It is an Australian brand, and it was touted as one of the best in the market for sun protection. Hey! I’m always looking for the best sunscreen in the market!

Australian-made sunscreens are usually very good. Their regulation is very strict when it comes to SPF, so I have always placed a lot of faith in their sun protection products.

It was however, not easy to source outside of Australia, so over time, I forgot about it. Then, one day while browsing iHerb, I noticed that they had the Blue Lizard sunscreen! So, into my basket it went. The irony of buying an Australian sunscreen from the USA and having it shipped to Malaysia, but there you go! 😀

Naturally, having waited so long to try it, I had to know if it was the best sunscreen in the market!

Just Sampling: Biologique Recherche VIP O2 Creme – worth the mystique?

I was clearing out my stash and culling old, expired products and sample packs of skincare, when I chanced upon some recent samples of the Biologique Recherche VIP 02 Creme. I don’t usually enjoy testing samples, unless they are generously sized, and these were, in adorable little pots.

Lest you consider me a snob (Yes, I am), the reason is simply because I like to know how well a product will work for me, and 1-2 uses do not cut it. Granted, this will be useful for testing for reactions, but it’s impossible to figure out just how good (or bad) a product is for your skin with just a few uses.

I scored 2 little tubs of the cream, so this gave me almost 3 weeks to try and evaluate, and to decide if it was worth the splurge 🙂
