Adventures of Mrs-To-Be: Quest for Better Skin

I have been using Clinelle for quite some time now after being recommended by Momster. Lately I've been lazy maintaining the daily morning and night routine. I found myself to get bored with the skin care product that I use after a certain period of time.

I thought of going back to one of the brands I've tried before, but I found that their pricing is a bit too high these days. So, I scout around some more.

Today, I was attracted to the advertisement by Bioxil while I was at KLCC. They are having promotion for a serum that is said to be able to repair the skin damage due to sun exposure and environmental aggression. They are selling it at RM99.

Suffice to say, by the end of my visit, I walked away with 4 products including the serum; daily cel-repair, clear white masque, clear white essence and wrinkle lifting eye cream. I admit I was sucked into the scary aging process story. I was pleasantly surprised to know that Bioxil and Clinelle comes from the same parent company.


Anyway... here are the short description of the products:

clear white masque & clear white essence: To correct uneven skin tone, repair and hydrate the skin. It is also to brigthen up a dull complexion. (RM250)

daily cel-repair: To repair, lighten, protect and restore skin condition as a result of sun exposure overnight. (apparently this can also be applied to other parts of the body, so I'm going to try it on my arms and hands). (RM99)

wrinkle lifting eye cream: To smooth fine lines, reduce puffiness and dark circles around the eye countour area. (RM99)

According to the product speacialist, I should be able to see the result within a month if I maintain the routine. So I shall write a review on these items in August ya. Together with the purchase they gave me some free samples, which include their sun block, moisturizer and anti-aging lifting essence. I doubt 8ml of cream will do much, but I shall slather them as well.

The best part of Bioxil products is that they use plant, flower and fruit extract. No allergens or chemicals or mineral oils according to their brochure. Find out more about their products here: http://www.bioxil.com/main.php.

Please note that prices shown are promotional prices. I'm not sure until when is the promotional period.
