hihi,

other than application, anyone tried oral pill ?
i am taking the SATO Vit B and whitening C pill now, just started a week.
hope to see result soon.
i am also taking the colleagen drinks.
i have combi skin and break out when my period comes or stress over work.

hi,
are collagen drinks effective in making skin radiant and gd? i'm taking Brand's Prune Essence currently. so far, my skin improved abit but not sure cos of tis or from e products i used.

According to one of the popular dermatologist in SG, she told me that
it is pointless to take oral collagen as the molecules are too big to be absorbed by the body.
But i do read that some vested companies, (selling collagen supplements) do state otherwise.
However, i personally have tried taking oral collagen ( powder and pills form) found no effect on me.

For SKII facial essence, I don't use cotton wool.... I always felt that it is a waste when all the stuff are absorb in the cotton rather than on the face.


Skincare for me is :
* Acnes facial foam. I like mandom as well. They are cheap and effective. I get lesser/ no outbreak with such facial foam
* SKII facial essence - every time after I wash my face. Min twice a day
* SKII whitening source derm on my pigmentation. An alternative for me is ROC whiteming cream. It seems to have the same active ingredients and hence effective
* Neutrogena moisturiser

Weekends for me is makeup free. Just facial essence, whitening source and moisturiser. Lipstick is a must for me.

My hubby uses mandom for a short while. And the lazy me sometimes 'kop' his facial cleanser but I find it too harsh for my skin.

Weekend no make up, no sunscreen too???

Hi MMM,
recently i notice more of the pigment is showing on my cheek, i am thinking of buying SKII whitening source derm (the silver glass bottle), does it works?
i thought of asking for review before buying as it is rather pricey

i am using the miracle water too
what i do is, i pour it into a clean spray bottle (small one will do), then i spray it onto cleansed face directly, then spat till it absorb
i find it very easier and no wastage
have been doing this for a year

Do you ladies apply the toner via a soaked through cotton wool? Or just piak the toner onto the face (think skii commercial)?

I lazy. Now just dump toner onto my hands and rub on the toner. Save money from cotton pad. :rotflmao:

Some sunscreen very oily looking on my skin, others look white after apply on skin, make me look like a ghost.

Only facial essence, whitening source and moisturiser with SPF.

It only lightens but it does not remove pigmentation. I believe this is the case for all over the counter products.

Actually, I realised that I've been using facial essence for at least 6 years already. No crystal clear skin like those actresses or korean ladies who really invest time in their beauty regime.

But one observation is that yes... I think I've grown fairer. The obsession for asian women. It's funny as during school hols we brought the kids to the pool. I would avoid the sun on my face.... So my body got \"burnt\" except the face. Just imagine fair face + a tanned body.... Abit strange huh.
