Nyx - Shine Killer - [ShopWithMe #12]




    I re-purchased the Nyx Shine Killer a while back so I thought I would       share my views about this product. Please continue reading to know       more...




1. Product Brand?
 NYX

2. Product Name?
Shine Killer

3. Net Weight
20ml   

4. Product Description and what it claims to do?

It eliminates the look of excess oil and shine, leaving skin looking matte and fresh all day. It can be worn over, under or without makeup.

5. Why did I purchase this product?

Since I tend to get very oily on my T-zone I decided to look for a product that would help me get rid of some of the shininess I experience throughout the day. I started to be annoyed of using blotting papers every time. I read a lot of reviews of the NYX shine killer and decided to give it a try since I already like the Pore Filler from Nyx.

6. Where did I buy it?
  
I bought it at Sephora in Sunway Pyramid Malaysia

7. This product is made in?

Taiwan


8. First Impression on using it?



So, I use this product after my moisturizer and before my foundation. My first views would be that it really does work well on my T-zone. I could go up to 8 hours without seeing my T-zone getting shiny. But definitely that would be on a common day. If it is sweaty hot then I definitely can predict that the oiliness would show. But overall I am quite satisfied with the results as I did not expect it to be a miracle worker.

9. First View Pros

-      Helps with the excess shine
-      Helps foundation to slide smoothly
-      Effects lasts for a reasonable time
-      Packing is travel friendly
-      Light-weight

10. First View Cons

-      Only 20ml of product

Avon Faraway Paradise Perfume - [Empties #7]




Product Brand: Avon



Product Name: Faraway Paradise Eau de Parfum

Net Weight: 50ml

Where I purchased it?

Bought it from Avon in the UK

What I think?

I am a big fan of the original Faraway Perfume which you can see below.



It has been my all-time favourite.  However, I decided to try the other scents, that is, Faraway Dreams, Exotic and Paradise. Faraway Paradise is far from the Original Faraway and I don’t really like it. But, I am glad I tried it though, to know what I thought of it.  The Original Faraway is undoubtedly still my favourite of all times.

Will I repurchase?

No

L'Oreal Paris Hydrafresh Deep Boosting Essence - [ShopWithMe #11] - [Product Review]




BY BEAUTY WITH CONFIDENCE


This blog post is a 2 in 1 post. Since I repurchased the L’Oreal Paris Hydrafresh Deep Boosting Essence, I thought that I could review the product as well as add it in my Shop with me Posts. Let’s start!




Product Brand: L’Oreal Paris

Product Name: Deep Boosting Essence

Ref: Hydrafresg

Net Weight: 50ml

Duration of Use: 3 months plus

Where I purchased it? I bought it from Sasa in Malaysia (Normally available in any Drugstore)

Texture:

Delicate “melting snow” texture enriched with breakable Vitamin E beads, easily melt into soft gel texture. This incredible texture instantly floods skin with a wave of delightful freshness and leave skin feeling smooth and supple

Use:

Apply daily on a perfectly cleansed skin. Continue hydration routine with Hydrafresh Moisturisers, depending on skin type or texture preference.

Claims:

Hydrafresh Deep Boosting Essence, the 1st hydrating essence that helps diffuse hydration into multiple layers of the skin. L’Oreal Skincare Laboratories developed Deep Boosting Essence with Triple Hyaluronic Acid Technology to help skin lock-in water and moisturize it intensively layer by layer.

Results:

Continuous Hydration, skin is quenched with freshness and stays hydrated up to 48 hours.
Day after day skin is visibly water-transparent and touchable watery-bouncy.

Advanced Hydrating Actions:

 v Intense and long-lasting moisturizing: enriched with triple hyaluronic acid technology, the essence hydrates several layers of skin and keeps skin hydrated throughout the day.

 v Boosts skin moisture lock ability. Pure spa water from French Vosges Mountains contains multiple essential minerals to boost skin’s natural ability to lock-in moisture.

 v Fights against external aggressions. Delicate beads enriched with Vitamin E, an antioxidant known to protect the skin from free radicals and external aggressions.


What I have to say?

I bought this product when I felt my skin lacked moisture. This product caught my attention due to the 40% off that was on it. I decided to give it a try. At first, I thought that it was a little harsh on my skin. But after around 3 times of use I loved the feeling. It sinks into my skin easily and makes it feel fresh. After having used this product for a month every morning after using my toner I found that I did not have to deal with dry skin anymore. Thus it really does satisfy the claims and really helps with locking in the moisture. It is very easy to use. Normally 1 to 2 pumps is enough to cover the whole face.




Will I re-purchase?

Yes I surely will

Pros:

 v Packaging is very friendly
 v Light weight
 v Refreshing feel
 v Quite affordable and contains considerable amount of product

Cons:

 v Contains alcohol. Thus not appropriate for sensitive skin
