Review: L'oreal Hydrafresh Aqua Gel



I have always been a sucker for anything that is "hydra" or "aqua" boosted. Since I've been wanting to try something that is budget-savvy, I decided to give the L'oreal Hydrafresh Aqua Gel a go (plus, it was on a sale at the time of purchase - that's a plus point there!).

Truth Serum - I Shall not Lie: Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronised Recovery Complex Serum



Note: Quite a mouthful eh? For ease of reference, let's just call this one the ANR serum.

Ever since I've started giving more attention to my skin, I've been religiously following the 3 steps in my daily regime - cleanse, tone and moisturise. But deep down in me, I had this urging feeling that the 3 steps are just not enough. So I did more research on skincare, and whaddya know? There are a lot more steps involved in giving your skin to the fullest. And one of them is putting on serum.

FY Eyes Only!

I was one of those girls who did not pay too much attention to my skin previously, thinking that I have quite clear skin and should not be bothering much...until I notice fine lines under my eyes, and I'm not even 30! So the quest began, I started looking for stuff to minimise these fine lines (and by this time, I also noticed how puffy my eyes were..like so puffy). And starting from the eyes, I've started to pay attention to the whole face (heck, it wasn't as clear and radiant as I thought it was). Hence, there goes my time and energy (and of course, money) on moisturisers, serum, lotion etc. But for this particular post, let's just focus on the eyes first, as I have some gems that I'd love to share with you, and some that does not really do the job well. Note that this solely my honest personal opinion, and whichever works for me, might not for others. But there's no harm in trying! :-)
