Will you save on your skincare?

March 10, 2009 Paris B 43 Comments

Gloomy times are ahead in the financial sector. For those of us with jobs to keep, I reckon we are holding on as best we can while trying to find a better wat to spend our hard earned money.

But will you save on your skincare?

Will you save on skincare?

These are my thoughts and I’d love to hear yours so do share in the comments below.

I personally will not save on my skincare.

Skin Care is very personal and individual to your skin

The main reason is that skincare is something I don’t mess around with (unless I’m testing a product for a review). At the end of the day, unless I find something cheaper that works as well as the item I’m using, I will not switch. I believe most people are the same.

Olay Total Effects Touch of Foundation SPF15 – hot or hype?

February 21, 2009 Paris B 40 Comments

I’d been seeing the ads for the Olay Total Effects Touch of Foundation on television lately and I have been curious about it but too busy to check it out. Yesterday I had a chance to.

Olay Total Effects Touch of FOundation

This is a new addition to Olay’s Total Effects line. I liked the Olay Total Effects cream so I would expect this to perform the same way. Like the Olay Total Effects Cream, it is a moisturiser with 7 in 1 anti-aging therapies and SPF15. What makes it different is the addition of foundation.

Does this sound suspiciously like BB Cream to you? Moisturiser, check! Sunscreen, check! Foundation… check! 🙂

What truly intrigued me was the blurb on the box that said that the foundation comes in 1 shade that will “blend to the skintone of most women”. Fascinating! A one size fits all in cosmetics – unheard of.

Olay Total Effects touch of foundation

Unfortunately, there was no tester available – why on earth do they do this? A tester would go so much further to encourage sales. So I had to regretfully pass on this one until I find a tester – I’m curious about the one size fits all foundation bit. No other brand or product I know of makes this claim.

Have you tried the Olay Total Effects Touch of Foundation? Was it hot or hype for you?

Its Saturday and I have a full day of activities lined up – whee! 😀 Have a great weekend everyone and…

Stay beautiful!

Review: Skincare: Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Anti Aging Cream

August 14, 2008 Paris B 81 Comments

Olay Total Effects

Hands up everyone who remembers their mothers or grandmothers using Oil of Ulan with the distinctive pink lotion and powdery smell? 🙂 I do. And I took a while to adjust to it being called Oil of Olay and then just Olay.

I used the Total Effects cream the first time it was introduced here in Malaysia. I was one of the testers for the mystery cream based on an ad on tv at the time. I knew what it was because I was monitoring its arrival after reading many good things about the Olay Total Effects cream online. When I tried it, I knew I liked it and Olay Total Effects was my staple moisturiser for a couple of years.

And then, I got bored and ventured out into various brands of skin moisturisers, mostly of the department store or higher end variety.

Recently, with prices soaring on nearly every consumer good, and with my night moisturiser on its last legs, I decided to once again return to an old favourite, to see how it re-measures up. Continue Reading
