Shimmering Pearls by Estee Lauder and Guerlain

July 31, 2008 Paris B 10 Comments

I was flipping through a magazine yesterday when my eye fell upon this rather deja-vu-ish picture.

Where have I see that before?

Why in Guerlain of course! The famed Guerlain Meteorites Illuminating powder balls. Don’t they bear an uncanny resemblance to Guerlain’s iconic product? I was so surprised that its taking Estee Lauder so long to jump onto the illuminating bandwagon. This is especially when Guerlain has taken it one step further and introduced the pressed Meteorites pearl highlighter.Continue Reading

Review: Skincare: Estee Lauder Cyber White Calming Foam Cleanser

March 28, 2007 Paris B 3 Comments

I dug this one out the other day from my stash. It has been a while since I’ve used anything from Estee Lauder, but this has been in my drawer for a while. Its the Estee Lauder Cyber White Calming Foam Cleanser from the Cyber White series.

The Cyber White series is Estee Lauder’s whitening line. On a personal note, I don’t believe in any cleanser purporting to be whitening because you wash it off, without letting it perform any whitening miracles on your skin. Be that as it may, this is a calming foam cleanser.

The cleanser comes in a 125ml tube but I find it can’t really stand on the cover, as the cover is too slim and small for the rest of the tube. A little squeeze is all you need for this cleanser foams up very quickly and there’s a lot of lather.

The lather is soft on the skin and cleans a treat. There is a fragrance that is rather strong. Estee Lauder’s skincare tends to be rather heavily fragranced which can be a turn-off. While I find that this cleanser leaves my face squeaky clean, and is rather drying, it isn’t half as bad as the other cleansers I’ve tried from this brand. If I don’t moisturise immediately, my skin feels tight which is uncomfortable. A friend likes it however, and doesn’t have the same problems I have so I guess it depends on your skin.

This cleanser retails for RM120 (US$34.14) which is terribly pricey. Any other cleanser would do the job just as well in my opinion.

Pros: Lathers and cleans well.

Cons: Expensive, Drying, Heavily fragranced

[rating:3/5]
