It Said 15-20 Minutes. I Lasted 5

You ladies know that I have dry lips. Dry skin and lips have been an issue for me my whole life, even when I was a child.

I saw this product at KKV and yesterday, I gave it a try.

It says to apply on the lips 15-20 minutes.

I opened it, pulled out the tray and the mask was folded. I don’t know if it’s the way I pulled it.

Anyway, I applied it and set the timer for 15 minutes.

Immediately, I noticed the skin around my lips to sting. But I didn’t mind it because sometimes my sheet masks also make my skin sting at the beginning and then the stinging will fade.

But then the stinging increased and then my lips started to sting, too, so I quickly removed it and washed my lips and the area around it with water.

Lots of water.

Then it was still stinging, so I got my ice ball roller and just rolled it all over lips and the areas that the mask touched.

After the ice ball, I checked if the area got red, but there’s no redness. The stinging also stopped.

The mask lasted for 4 min 53 seconds on my lips and then I had to remove it.

I will not suffer for this product!

And now I’m thinking if I should just give away the lip treatment I got there. I don’t want to experience this again. It’s a good thing that item is still sealed..

Yes, I will just give it away.

My health and peace of mind are more important.

Soft Luxe Staycations: Binondo Series - The Great Buddha, Curated Purchases from Eng Bee Tin, and Last Thoughts About Ramada

After buying a lot of stuff on the first floor, we headed upstairs to eat a light lunch. Mom was getting hungry. My son and I just ate, but we said that we will accompany her and will just order something light.

All About Eyes

Lately I’m finding myself obsessed with skin care products, prevention in particular. I'm not getting younger and nobody likes lines and wrinkles, right? I should have done this in my early twenties but those were hard times and we didn’t have enough to support our daily lives, let alone vanity splurges. So now, I’m on hyper mode. I did not place any expectations on this product. I’ve had it with products claiming they can do this and that. I just tried the product thinking that if it works then great, if not then I’ll just find a new one. I wasn’t expecting a dramatic change but 2 weeks into using this product, I noticed that my under eye area has become lighter. The lines are also not as deep as they were before I used this product. I stopped using the Garnier eye products because I’m allergic to them so that means I’m not using any whitening products for that area. I am truly impressed with this product. I didn’t take a before and after photo as I wasn’t expecting this at ...

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...
