Want to Remove Stubborn Waterproof Eyeliner? Don’t Count on the Silkygirl Hydra Clean Makeup Remover

September 23, 2011 by Bun Bun 6 Comments

Just like day and night, when there’s a ‘best’, there must always be a ‘worst’. I haven’t tried every single makeup remover there is in the market (who has?!), but enough to attest that while some outshine the others by a mile, others must be buried ten feet under.

I am on my 4th (5th?) bottle of my favorite Biore Makeup Remover for Eye and Lip and intend to re-purchase it for as long as it is in existence because it does an excellent job of removing even the most tenacious of smudgeproof and water-resistant eye makeup.

Staying over at a friend’s house one night, I had forgotten to pack the Biore Makeup Remover. She kindly lent me her Silkygirl Hydra Clean Makeup Remover and after using it, I screamed at her told her I was shocked that she had been subjecting her eyes and face to such great distress!

What it claims:
Hydra Clean Makeup Remover is a mild and gentle lotion that effectively removes all traces of makeup.
Formulated with moisturizing properties for sensitive and dehydrated skin. Contains Bio-White to brighten skin tone.

Does Not Remove Waterproof and Smudgeproof Makeup

Being a girl who must only use smudgeproof eyeliner and mascara, the Silkygirl Hydra Clean Makeup Remover is not strong enough to remove eye makeup that is resilient to water, oil, and sweat.

Watsons Birthday Haul With 5x Bonus Points!

July 17, 2011 by Bun Bun 5 Comments

Yay hayyyyyyyy! It’s finally my birthday!

There is always a good reason or two to splurge on makeup and skincare products and the reason for this month is very obvious!

Watsons rewards its members with 1 point for every S$5 purchase. And for every 20 points, you get S$1 off your purchase, meaning I have to spend S$100 to redeem W$1.

So to fully redeem my Rimmel Glam Eyes Mascara which cost…. I can’t remember… maybe around S$17?, I had to use 340 points. Not bad at all considering I’d have bought so many things from Watsons even without the membership rewards.

Wait a minute.

The 340 points were earned from spending…… S$1700.00!!!!!!

ZOMG! Watsons earns a lot from me! >.<”

W$1 = 20 points = S$100

W$17 = 340 points = S$1700

SHUCKS! How did I manage to buy so many things from Watsons?! And the Rimmel mascara isn’t the only item I’ve redeemed before.

*feels guilty and runs to a corner to repent*

Okie, I feel better now.

Anyway, it’s my birthday month! So I get 5 times bonus points on the first purchase of the month! YAY! I made a list of the items I wanted to get from Watsons for the month of July, and made sure I didn’t miss anything out so that I wouldn’t waste the bonus points.

Eclipse Mints

April 26, 2011 by Bun Bun 18 Comments

Did you know there’s a difference between smudgeproof mascaras and waterproof mascaras? You can use the best or splurge on the most expensive waterproof mascara out there, but if you have naturally oily skin around the eye, those racoon eyes will be here to stay.

Read on to find out why waterproof mascara may not be the best for you!

 

Do you look like that when you cry?

How To Remove Stubborn Waterproof Eye Makeup Without Tearing Your Skin – Biore Makeup Remover For Eye & Lip Review

April 23, 2011 by Bun Bun 6 Comments

Take it all off! Your makeup, I mean! Teeheehee!

It is important to remove all traces of makeup before you turn in for the night. NO EXCUSES! This is my third bottle of the Biore Makeup Remover for Eye & Lip and I can proudly say it will be my HG eye makeup remover until the end of time, unless one day it gets discontinued or is reformulated. =(

I always read about people having trouble removing makeup – waterproof mascara especially – on forums and wonder why, if they’ve always been bugged by that problem, never found the solution that I have? Is because those people in forums didn’t know about the oil-based makeup removers that hail from Japan? Or they didn’t have access to them?

Hmmm, I wonder.

Easily Remove Stubborn Makeup With Fancl Mild Cleansing Oil Makeup Remover

April 10, 2011 by Bun Bun 2 Comments

 

How I love the Fancl Mild Cleansing Oil! Earlier this year I was done with my sixth bottle of the Fancl Mild Cleansing Oil. I still have one full bottle left. Each 120ml bottle lasts between 4 to 6 months so I’ve been a loyal fan for the past 3 years and have been an active advocate for this amazing makeup remover.

What it claims:

FANCL’s original Perfect Blend Oil in the new Mild Cleansing Oil dissolves and removes the most stubborn makeup, eye makeup, even pore-clogging dirt and oil instantly. It is formulated with the best balance of carefully-selected oil and cleansing ingredients, it won’t leave any residue. The unique Smooth Cushion Oil glides so effortlessly to wrap and remove any makeup and dirt without stripping natural oil from your skin, leaving your skin soft and moisturized.


Does it perform as it claims?

Here’s my review of the Fancl Mild Cleansing Oil that easily removes any trace of waterproof makeup.
