Bijinsenmon Slimming Masks

Were you there at the Bijinsenmon Product Launch Event held at Paragon Guardian back on 18^th Feb 2012? I did and I was mesmerized by the brand’s gorgeous spokeswoman, TVB artiste Ms Christine Ng Wing Mei.

And do you know that it was Ms Christine Ng who has developed and this series of DIY Slimming mask and named it Bijinsenmon after chancing upon a pair of leg mask in Japan? When the mask not only has relived her tired legs, it has also made them slimmer, smoother and firmer and even reduced the water retention problem after using, she was so excited that she began to negotiate with the owner for the secret recipe and launched the leg slimming mask in Hong Kong in 2010.

With its innovations and effectiveness, Bijinsenmon has quickly won the most popular external slimming product in Hong Kong at the 2010-2011 Mannings Health & Beauty Awards. Likewise it has become much a hit in Singapore that its Arm Slimming Mask has won Elle’s Beauty IT List 2012 Award!

Want to find more about Bijinsenmon? Read it here.

After you have experience the miracles of the masks, share your experience here for a chance to win S$200 cash and 1 set of Bijinsenmon products worth S$172! Contest starts 2 April 2012 and ends on 2 July 2012. Good luck!

Our Review:

Clear Woman Ice Cool Menthol

As its name implies, I like that icy-tingling feeling during and after the shampooing. It foams well and unlike other anti-dandruff formula that tends to be strong and causes more irritation to my sensitive scalp, this one is gentle and effective to provide a thorough cleanse for the hair and scalp. The pleasant scent leaves my hair feeling invigorating clean and fresh.

 

After several wash, my slight dandruff problem is well under controlled and there is no more unsightly white snowy flakes falling on my top. 

 

Clear Man Anti Hair Fall

Hubby is currently using Anti Hair Fall shampoo from another brand and gamely took the challenge to try out this for my review. Though it is meant to treat dandruff as well, he is relived to find the shampoo is pretty mild and gentle for his scalp. He likes the foamy formulation so a little would go a long way for his little crown of glory. It would a longer time to see the result of hair fall control but he certainly likes it enough to continue using it.   

 Personally, I am far more than happy toward his switch because with Clear Man Anti Hair Fall, I no longer have to endure him smelling like a bowl of herbal brew whenever he shampoos his hair!

With Clear, say Bye Bye to Dandruff! Bye Bye Dry Scalp! Bye Bye Hair Fall!

Ginvera Green Tea BB Cream & Aqua Whitening Cream Bloggers Event

When I received a call from Elfaine of TSS last Friday, I was totally clueless. I did not received her earlier email so I wasn’t aware that I was being one of the ten bloggers being shortlisted for the Ginvera’s Bloggers Challenge Round Two happening the next day on 18 June 2011.

Emerging 10 out of the 100 challengers?  Great!     

1 of out the 10 is going for a trip to Hong Kong for 4? Wow, that’s nice! 

The challenge? A presentation to promote Ginvera’s new products.  Cool!

BUT! The event is going to happen less than 24 hours’ time and with hands all tied up that day,  I was ready to bid that chance to take the family to HK bye bye but the young lady over the line was very assuring and advised that a simple presentation or demo will do just fine. 

It was well past dinner when I finally get down to work on the presentation. With the  limited resources and restricted time frame, it is needless to say that I have done a lousy job.   

The event was held at NOVUS Restaurant Bar, Café – Courtyard within the artsy National Museum and 30 bloggers were being invited as judges.

Hmm…so it is going to be a voting game afterall. 

Anyway, I was the first in line to run my presentation since I have to leave early.

I didn’t expect that the runtime of my PPS  was so short! And why the voice over sounded like mouse quack? The last time I checked the PPS on my lappy sounded alright but it turned out to be miserably soft when being played that day. Well, an ill-prepared job is never a good job and the next participant has really put me to shame on that matter.  This lady was so well prepared and conducted her presentation like a pro. She was  so poise and confident throughout  her lengthy presentation and sounded like a really professional beauty trainer who knows her stuff. I am not sure how the 30 judges think but to me, she is already the absolute winner! 

After watching the cute BB cream competition presented by the 3rd blogger, I went off to celebrate my birthday cum wedding anniversary so I have missed out the rest of the presentations.

 Who wins in the end? I don’t know but I still feel the lady I mentioned earlier deserve to win. 

Now, that is not the end.

And here’s come the third round. And yes, it is voting time again 😦 

Ha, I can almost see you guys shaking your heads off by now. But guys, I am trying to exercise a little good sportsmanship here by completing what I have already  started. Even if the probability of winning of a voting game is zero, it is okay to  lose than quit half way through right? 

Yes? Then  cheer me to the finishing line.  And action speaks louder than words, throw me your vote here. Voting ends 3 July 2011. 

Thanks and God bless! 

Skinfactory Clinical Mask from Beauty Finest

Like those nifty essentials inside the first aid kit, I often view sheet masks as the SOS for my face.

My skin gets irritated easily and reacts poorly to environmental pollutants, climate and hormonal changes. A few hours on the flight will lead to patchiness and with red angry bumps flaring up. I can’t possibly swap the entire range of skincare when my skin reacts so an assortment of sheet masks would come in handy to ease and address the respective concerns.

On my recent Vietnam trip, I took several pieces of Skinfactory Mask along and tried them out throughout the week. On the first night touching down, I used the Aqua Mask to combat the dryness and replenish my skin with hydration. Over the next few days, the weather was terribly humid and I picked the Brightening Mask after a day under the hot sun to revitalize and brighten my skin and relied on the Nourishing Mask to keep my face in check before I left the country. Immediately upon my return, I put on the Acne Care Mask to regulate and purify my skin and amazingly, I did not have any trouble on my skin during or after the trip that I would normally have.

Apart from the unique color-coded packaging that resembles a medical drip, each and every Skinfactory mask is infused with 30ml of treatment essence and that is probably equivalent to one regular bottle of serum. On my first trial, I fell asleep and woke with the cellulose mask still adhered closely to my facial contours. The mask was so steeply soaked that it did not dry up even after one hour! Besides being dermatologist tested, paraben free, I like the easy absorption and the optimal effects that the mask provides. The result is almost instantaneous and long lasting. I especially love how my skin felt soft and dewy the next morning after using the Aqua Mask and how the Nourishing Mask rejuvenate my skin and gave my otherwise, dull and shallow skin tone a radiant glow!
