Facial : Rosette Hello Kitty ~limited edition

A cute packaging, girly, natural collagen, Japan products, oil free cleanser, what else? Aren’t these all what a girl want? a cute facial packaging to stand on our bathroom (to cheer up the bathroom mood maybe :P) or maybe for travelling? Travelling with these products will absolutely make you look feminine, cuter  and of course make others jealous (is it that good?:)

So what are they? what are these products that can make one of my bestie cannot resist on them :P , and the one who introduce me this product and eagerly ask me to put this on my blog hahaha..(just kidding…LOL)

Rosette Hello Kitty is the answer. Rosette has introduced a limited edition collection with a Hello Kitty theme (for Hello Kitty fans…here you go) Obviously, the packaging is what appeals the most on these cute pieces. The collection consists of two cleansers, one for normal skin, one for acne, a facial peel, and a 4 in 1 moisturizer.

Rosette Hello Kitty Collagen Wash

It is a foaming facial cleanser that contains natural collagen from Japanese brand, Rosette. It’s a mineral oil free cleanser that creates mounds of rich, soft foam to cleanse skin, moisturizer it, and make your face bright and happy again plus hey it smells like apple and has cool Hello Kitty packaging, that’s enough to make anyone a convert. (hahaha…)

The product is a typical foaming Asian cleanser that removes dirt, makeup, and oil while leaving skin super squeaky clean. A little drop goes a very long way at creating endless bubbles! It feels slick on your face as you scrub away, that would be the collagen, and leaves your face quite bright after use.

Rosette Hello Kitty Apple Gommage

A gommage is a gentle exfoliator that isn’t quite your typical scrub. It’s not grainy, it’s not sugary but it is none the less considered an exfoliator of sorts. Gommages are commonly known as facial peels. The basic idea is to apply the product onto dry skin and rub it away. The rubbing action helps to rid your skin of dead skin cells.

Rosette Hello Kitty Apple Gommage is a gentle facial peel. It’s scented like crisp apples (pls don’t eat it) and makes me feel extra soft after use. It’s a typical gommage in the fact that’s it’s a gel formula. Applying a quarter size amounts to dry face and massage in. As massage the product begins to break up and pill into small balls (you can see close up action of this effect in photos below). This is NOT skin just the product “peeling” away. After use my skin feels noticeably softer and squeaky clean.

Overall, it’s a rather nice little peel. As mentioned above I really can never tell if it’s doing much for me. My skin at the moment is quite normal however if I was flaky or dry I do find I need to use a scrub rather than a peel to really slough away dry, dead skin. I actually do like this over a regular grainy formula as I find regular scrubs of this type tend to dry my skin out so this is nice for as my skin is behaving nicely as of late! ---> I got this review from others blog :)

Rosette Hello Kitty Acne Wash

Rosette Hello Kitty Acne Wash contains Sulfur and licorice extract, and it is a form of facial acne formulation. Leaves Grapefruit + Mint Scent smells after cleansing.
Cleansing foam made from vegetable and palm and skin-friendly :)
Medicinal ingredients and licorice extract sulphur, absolutely safe for sensitive skin people.

My friend bought this one as she has a quite sensitive skin, although she love the collagen packaging better >.< poor her… and will complain to the product designer then :P

Rosette Hello Kitty Hyaluronic Acid Gel

Rosette Hello Kitty Hyaluronic Acid Gel is free of fragrance and mineral oil and acts as a lotion, essence, emulsion, and cream. The Japanese and most Asian countries are big on several step skin care systems so this actually produces the same results as you would get using the one product rather than hauling out four.

How to use:

● After washing in the morning or evening, take a pearl-size amount of this product, massage it on face for about 2 minutes.
●  Use a little extra if you have dry skin.

For Hello Kitty’s lover or anyone who never tried an Asian foaming cleanser before and want to try it, let these Hello Kitty rocks it up :) a super great products to start with… and also for anyone who love scented skincare, you will absolutely love this apple scent as it is addicting, calming and yummyy (pls don’t eat it as I mentioned it before :P)

Feel free to ask us how to purchase these products, WE SELL THEM :)

Hairstyle: How to choose a right hairstyle

Need a new hair cut and just afraid that the hair cut doesn’t suit our face. Fear no more now…let’s see the tips to choose the right hairstyle for us:)

First we need to determine our type of face, and this technique is used by stylists  to create an illusion of a balanced face (this technique can be applied in choosing the right eyes frame as well :)

To guide you in determining your face shape and find the right style use one of the following methods:

The mirror trick

- First stand in front of a mirror and look straight ahead.

- Pull your hair completely back and secure with a clip.

- Take a lipstick and draw around the outline of your face on the mirror.

- Compare the result with one of the following shapes and find the face shape that is closest to yours. (There are seven different face shapes in this hair cut guide)

Diamond Face: Narrow forehead, small pointy chin, and wide cheeks.
Haircut & Style: To create a balance shape look for styles that are narrow at the cheekbones and wider at the forehead. Add a little more fullness at the crown if required.

 

Heart face: Wide, short forehead, and small pointy chin.
Haircut & Style: Suited styles are like layered bob with extra volume and outward flicks at chin level. Asymmetric cuts are also flattering heart-shaped faces.

 

Oval face: High forehead and narrow, slightly rounded chin.
Haircut & Style: This is the most balanced face shape and almost perfect for any type of hair style.

 

 

Rectangle face: Long face with high forehead and long jaw and chin. Also known as long face shape.
Haircut & Style:Suited styles are like chin or shoulder-length cuts with a fringe that can disguises the long forehead.

 

Round face:Wide, short forehead, full jaw and chin.
Haircut & Style:The round shape normally makes the cheeks appear wider. Most short hair cuts works well for round face as long as there is some height at the crown area and little fullness above the ears to slim down the round face. Soft cuts with sophisticated layers coming forward onto the face look stylish and is an ideal hair style for round face shape. Soft curls will also flatter the frame of a round face. For straight hair asymmetric cuts can also be an option.

Square face: A wide, short forehead and square jaw.
Haircut & Style: Square edges should be soften by breaking the symmetry. Graduated layers with some volume at crown and soft curls looks stylish on this type of face shape.

Triangular face: Narrow at the temples, slightly wider at the cheeks and widest at the jaw line.
Haircut & Style: Most short hair cuts works for this type of face. Avoid styles with volume at the top.

 

The real trick is to pick hairstyles that enhance your best features while camouflaging any flaws. Please take note that this technique and face shape concept is a very simple hair cut guide and sometimes it’s difficult to distinguish two face shapes from each other. But I am sure that this can help us select a better style and give us a general knowledge. Still choose and communicate with our hair stylist is a key to a successful outcome at a saloon.

Hairstyle : Simple & elegant hairstyle for office lady

Tired of having same hairstyle to go to work? (haha..am I talking to myself :P). We all know that when it comes to dressing and looking office appropriate it is very difficult to decide on something right or wrong as office port is usually more strict and formal (especially for office’s human resources staffs who love to observe and critics everyone’s style – aren’t they have anything else to do LOL).

Anyway although I believe that each office have people who love to comments and report it to our big boss (Oh my gosh..), it doesn’t mean they can stop us not to be fashionable anymore. Just keep in mind that, being fashionable and maintaining a proper office posture can come easily especially by keeping track of the current business fashion trends :D

Here, we are more talking about office lady’s hairstyle. Do you know that a good hairstyle can absolutely change a person appearance so it is necessary to maintain the hair as simple as possible without adding too many hair accessories (unless you want to look like a walking-christmas-tree :P

Easy way, we can just get the right haircut for our face shape and hair style so we don’t need to put lots effort every morning (I will choose to have extra sleeping time rather than styling my hair everyday). Stay away from extravagant and obvious, sophisticated hairstyles, which could make you look like you just came back from a wedding or a club.
